The hyenas redirected their attention toward Alec, holding him accountable for the attack against the Matriarch Hyena.
However, they were unable to prevent the release of Alec’s second flaming bullet that was already flying towards the egg.
And despite their dislike for him, they simply couldn’t reach him at that moment.
Alec had cleverly turned the Matriarch Hyena’s own tactic against her pack.
As the entire group surrounded and defended him against the horde of Hyenas as he shot at the mana egg, while the hyenas were determined to tear him apart and halt his interference in their leader’s evolution.
However, even as Alec’s second bullet struck where the Matriarch Hyena’s eyes had been, it was unable to pierce through a protective membrane shielding her.
From a distance, the Matriarch Hyena’s eye stared at Alec, filled with immense disdain.
Slowly, she closed her eyes, and the surrounding wind and psychic elements in the air rush toward the damaged part of the egg.
