Chapter 387 The Ancient Castle with Rising Smoke 1

Just as Scarlett finished speaking, the sharp sound of wolf howls filled the ears of everyone present from all directions.

At the same time, a large number of violent energy fluctuations also began to ripple out from various parts of the city.

The sudden explosion of huge energy fluctuations caused the surrounding airflow to become chaotic in an instant.

One after another, fierce gusts of wind formed by the energy turbulence rushed towards Leo Ray and his group at lightning speed, scraping painfully across their faces.

For a moment, the overlapping wolf howls and disordered energy fluctuations filled the air.

Under the deep blue night sky, cold and desolate white moonlight was continuously cast upon the ground.

This made the pitch-black street ahead instantly become eerie and dangerous.

"What's going on?!"

After a moment of surprise, everyone, including Scarlett, surrounding Leo Ray responded quickly.

One after another, brightly-colored weapons appeared, surrounding Leo Ray in the middle of the team.

At the same time, a thick energy shield surfaced on Leo Ray and each of his subordinates, fully entering a combat state.

There was no doubt that facing tens of thousands of transformed werewolves was akin to confronting at least tens of thousands of Tier 2 or higher strength fighters, an immense pressure that one can imagine.

After all, just a middle team of Tier 2 elite soldiers, in theory, can compete with an ordinary Tier 4 powerhouse, let alone multiplying that number by a hundred times or more?

"Relax, we are all wearing Invisibility Cloaks and Concealment Rings.

Unless it is a Tier 4 or Tier 5 powerhouse with keen perception, our tracks won't be revealed.

Furthermore, before the incident happened, a curfew was already established here.

It is evident that those still wandering in the streets should be the soldiers of this city, significantly reducing their number."

Signaling his subordinates not to be too nervous, Leo Ray said solemnly, "The current priority is to figure out what's happening here."

"What Lord says is extremely reasonable." On the other side, Gideon Black pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, looking up into the night sky at the two full moons, his brows furrowed, "Lord, although the atmosphere in the city is extremely chaotic, through my perception, I can still detect a trace of illusionary aura."

"Moreover, if my judgment is correct, the source of this illusionary aura comes from the sky, constantly infiltrating the ground."

"An illusion coming from the sky?!"

Hearing this, astonishment appeared on Scarlett's fair face, and she blurted out, "No wonder the day turned into night in an instant.

It turns out someone cast a Sky Illusion Skill!"

"Sky Illusion Skill?" Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.

In this world, just as illusion is a branch of magic, illusion itself also has many different branches, and the Sky Illusion Skill is one of them.

"This type of illusion can create a special semi-illusion realm within a relatively wide range.

The only area that can change is the sky, where it can freely control day and night, causing the target to lose their concept of time or use the night to deceive their opponent."

Thinking of this, Leo Ray's gaze fell on the two full moons in the deep blue night sky and continued to mutter to himself, "In short.

Unlike the full-landscape type illusion that can change everything, this semi-landscape type illusion has extremely limited effects and doesn't cause substantial harm to people.

However, in a place full of werewolves, the situation is obviously very different."It seems that, just as I had speculated before, the enemy indeed knows that this is a domain of the Moon Wolf Tribe."

"I didn't expect someone to use the Sky Illusion Skill to forcibly transform the inhabitants here into wolves."

On the other side, Bianca White's long eyelashes flashed, and her face showed an incredulous expression, murmuring, "You should know that Twin Full Moon Night.

Is the day with the most abundant moonlight energy each month, which causes the people of the Moon Wolf Tribe to involuntarily transform."

It seems that the mysterious person who performed the Sky Illusion Skill has not only created a Twin Full Moon Night.

but also perfectly imitated the changes in the moonlight energy…"

"Indeed, that's the case."

Scarlett, who was beside her, couldn't help showing a puzzled expression and said, "But if the other party really wants to occupy this Mountain Domain, why would they force the inhabitants here to transform, thereby greatly increasing the difficulty of occupying this place?"

"This shows that the purpose of the other party is not to occupy this place." At this time, Leo Ray slowly withdrew his gaze from looking up at the starry sky and responded.

"However, if that's the case, why did the other party seal off the passage between this place and the outside world? It's simply bewildering."

A cool voice sounded, and Linda looked at the cold streets under the moonlight with a full face of confusion.

Hearing this, the expressions of the other subordinates also revealed the same confusion.

"In summary, there are two points that we need to deal with at this stage."

After a slight pause, Leo Ray continued, "Firstly, we need to figure out the mysterious opponent's motive for first causing a landslide to seal off this place and then using the Sky Illusion Skill to force the residents to transform. Secondly, naturally, it's the original goal: to figure out the relationship between Burt and this place and the reason why he is not welcomed here, in order to prepare sufficiently for winning him over in the next step."

"Acknowledged! My Lord!" Hearing this, the subordinates bowed and saluted Leo Ray.

"Alright, let's move on to the Grand Duke Mansion as planned." Leo Ray nodded slightly and spoke again.

A moment later, while leaping quickly across rooftops, Leo Ray noticed.

Below him, the streets were already in chaos.

From time to time, he saw groups of beast-soldiers with wolf heads and human bodies, wandering aimlessly with a dazed look and sharp teeth dripping saliva, apparently looking for a target to attack.

At the same time, low growls came continuously from the throats of these werewolf soldiers, making one feel their scalp tingling.

Some of them were even growling and attacking nearby buildings and trees while doing so. Their sharp eyes were filled with primitive wildness, and not a single trace of reason was left.

"Goodness, their fighting strength is definitely much stronger than ordinary Tier 2 soldiers."

As fast as lightning, Leo Ray looked at the giant tree in the distance. In no time at all, a group of Tier 2 Moon Wolf Clan Soldiers had ripped its trunk into pieces with their claws and sharp teeth.

Subsequently, with a great dust cloud raised by a large amount of wood chips falling to the ground, the tree collapsed with a thundering noise.

Seeing this, Leo Ray withdrew his gaze with amazement and refocused his attention on the road ahead.

Just like this, facing the chilly wind.

It didn't take long before a large, ancient castle located halfway up a hill at the end of the city became clearly visible.

At this time, it could be observed distinctly.

The aged castle, with smoke rising everywhere, seemed to have been attacked by an unknown force.

"Well then, let me see what kind of crisis has occurred in this Wolf Tribe domain hidden within the mountain range."

Sniffing the smell of gunpowder lingering in the air, Leo Ray's eyes narrowed, murmuring in his heart.
