Chapter 162: The Forest Wolf Variant

A purple lightning sprite came out of Lawrend's outstretched palm. It hit the wolves with countless strands of lightning.

"AWOOOOOO!"

The leading wolf and the largest one howled loudly. Its body crackled with lightning, similar to the other wolves in the pack.

"Impossible!" Lawrend exclaimed in disbelief.

This was the first time that he had seen Forest Wolves defend against such strong lightning. Compared to the Forest Wolves that they had met last time, these were much stronger.

Suddenly, Lawrend saw a sapling grow on the head of the wolves. It then grew into small trees that towered over their heads. It was lush and full of vitality.

"What kind of Forest Wolves are they?" Lawrend turned his head to Joseph and asked.

"They should be a variant. A Plant-variant to be exact," Joseph replied to Lawrend.

"That's the first time I have heard of this," Lawrend replied. He was taken aback that there were actually variants to monsters.

"Yes. Normal Forest Wolves are only capable of attacking using their powerful jaws and sharp teeth. These ones are capable of using plant magic," Joseph explained to Lawrend.

"It's coming!" Lawrend shouted in alarm.

He opened his palm towards the Forest Wolf in the lead and shot a Shock Arc towards it.

BOOM!

A lightning bolt hit the wolf. It crackled and broke its skin.

"Awooo!" The wolf howled in pain. It tumbled on the ground and stopped in front of Lawrend. The other wolves stayed away and observed Lawrend warily.

They started circling around him, and Lawrend slowly backed away cautiously. One of its members nudged the wolf that had been hit by his Shock Arc spell.

"Awo?" It asked sorrowfully.

Sadly, the wolf didn't respond anymore. Blood slowly poured under its body as it bled out.

"Huh? My Shock Arc spell is more effective," Lawrend exclaimed to himself in shock. Wasn't his True Mage spell supposed to be stronger than his Beginner Mage Spell?

'It's probably because my lightning mana is more concentrated in my Shock Arc spell,' Lawrend hypothesized.

His lightning mana in his Lightning Sprite True Mage Spell is a spread-out form of his Shock Arc Beginner Mage Spell. Unless he can figure out a way to somehow amplify the lightning mana that his True Mage spell can output then it would forever be weaker when dealing with enemies that has some resistance to lightning.

"Leave!" Lawrend shouted to the other wolves with a fierce face, and he tried to scare them away.

"AWOOOO~!"

Instead of responding, the wolves all howled together to grieve their dead leader.

Lawrend looked at the wolves warily.

"Wall!" Lawrend shouted. Suddenly, an earthen wall arose in front of him. It was created by Logan.

"Good!" Lawrend smirked.

He then raised his hand into the air and pointed a finger to the Forest Wolf to his right.

"+Shock Arc+!" Lawrend shouted.

A bright arc of lightning connected from his finger towards the wolf, but it was too far. It hit the spot in front of the wolf and created a mini-explosion, throwing a cloud of dust that blocked the wolf's vision.

Lawrend knew that this was his chance, he then ran towards the wolf that he blinded. He approached it just enough for him to accurately hit it with a Shock Arc spell. He could barely see it from the scattering dust, and he aimed at it using his finger.

"+Shock Arc+!" he shouted.

BOOM!

The wolf's body cracked. That's because its meat was superheated by the lightning magic, and it couldn't handle the sudden temperature change.

"One more down," Lawrend blew on his finger like it was a gun with a confident smirk. Knowing what their weakness was, Lawrend was having a much easier time than he thought he would have.

"So far, he's doing well, but the wolves hadn't unleashed their ultimate attacks yet. They were wary of his attack since they have the judgment to sense Lawrend's strength," Joseph analyzed with his arms crossed together.

"AWOOO~!!"

This time, the wolves changed tactics. The three of them came together at Lawrend in a pincer attack from three sides. They didn't care if one of them dies, this was their only chance to win against him.

Thick vines sprouted from the small trees on their heads that headed towards Lawrend to pierce his body.

"I'll try something I had been itching to try for so long…" Lawrend murmured to himself with a smile. He then pointed his two index fingers to two of the wolves.

"+Double Shock Arc+!" Lawrend shouted.

BOOM ZAPP

It was like a maelstrom had occurred as thick lightning escaped Lawrend's fingers. It was like he was wielding all of the lightning in the area.

"Woah! What just happened!?" Lawrend exclaimed in bewilderment. He couldn't wrap his head around what just suddenly happened.

The two wolves didn't even get any chance to resist before they exploded into mists of blood. Their vines fell to the ground limply.

"Did he get an enlightenment?" Joseph guessed from the side. His face was filled with awe.

Enlightenments in the midst of battle rarely happen. It takes talent and extreme focus to even be able to think of ways to improve your magic in such a dangerous situation.

"Awo!"

The last wolf was shocked at Lawrend's prowess. Seeing him easily take down its two other pack members so easily, made it shake on its legs.

"Are you gonna run away?" Lawrend asked it with a teasing smile on his face.

"AWOOO!!"

It was a lone wolf's howl, but Lawrend suddenly noticed something. The wolves that he had killed actually came back to life!

One by one, they started standing up. Lush and powerful plant-like vitality was on their appearances as their wounds started to heal.

But there was something different about them that Lawrend couldn't put his mind in.

"AWOOOOO~~!" They all howled.

And suddenly, the leaves on the trees on their heads flew towards Lawrend in a swarming attack. He had no idea how to defend it whatsoever.

"Surround me!" Lawrend shouted to Logan.
