The Atrocious Werewolf Prince



"8 Lost Dragons, 4th Dragon!"

Four dragons made of black lightning roared as they pounced, ripping a nearly 400 feet aquatic beast to pieces. A fist-sized Duct Creation Energy crystal rose from its remains and was grabbed by Ezra.

"Who else?!" The prince let out a hearty laugh, it's been a while since he fought like that. He had gradually grown more and more thrilled as he continued to hunt, not because the duct beasts were donating a tremendous amount of Duct Creation Energy crystals but the reason was that the stronger creatures were appearing slowly. 

According to his estimation, the number of crystals he had currently collected would already be able to achieve 4 paths of Ablution.

And it was accomplished in only two hours. With such a haul, the prince was now quite excited indeed.

Working into a killing frenzy, the prince gripped the short sword, its tip pulsing sharply as he boldly declared, "No matter how many of you come, I'll kill you all!"

However, the instant his voice sounded, the waters to his front began to violently ripple as 500 feet fuct beast after beast rapidly approached at an alarming speed.

There were a total of eight of these 500 feet duct beasts, along with dozens of 400 feet beasts and even shorter ones.

A line-up like this immediately made the excited look on Ezra's face turn more thrilled. In front of these beasts, even a 6th-level core Formation expert will run for his life.

Black bolts started to dance around his body  the water near him boiled as the prince said "Here I come!"

Next, he held the two of his weapons in his hands and shot towards the swarm like a deadly arrow.

He was no fool, he wasn't doing a suicide charge. He knew the limits of his power and the limits of his opponents, this swarm was indeed powerful and Ezra was merely a 2nd level Core Formation expert but was he a normal 2nd level? No! This swarm maybe could injure him but it was not powerful enough to kill him. Another fact to remember is there are still two helpers on Ezra's shoulders, why would he worry about such a swarm of duct beasts?

Bubbles were emitted from the giant mouths of numerous duct beasts as they violently jerked their bodies, rapidly cutting through the water, their figures turning into blurred shadows as they zipped towards Ezra.

Ezra's body turned Gossamer, his speed as quick as lightning. He clashed with the swarm moving his body and killing numerous duct beasts.

However, it was not easy, the beasts kept growing. Ezra slowly retreated, he couldn't reveal all his secrets now, who knows maybe these creatures had some communication skills as well.

A human and a horde of duct beasts continued their fight in the reservoir, occasionally encountering other disciples, who were immediately stupefied by this scene.

They were having such a hard time searching for duct beasts in the energy reservoir, so how the heck did so many duct beasts gather to chase a single person?

There were actually some disciples that thought of attacking, but after getting a clearer view of how many there were, their scalps instantly turned numb as they quickly backed away. A horde of such scale was something that normal diamond belt disciples had no confidence in handling.

The battle went and suddenly the two cubs jumped away, the horde of beasts were divided. They ran towards Sköll and Hati. 

"Oh! So they were attracted to them not me." Just when he pondered that, he saw that 1/3rd of the horde was still there marching towards him. "Huh! They are after all three of us, what the fuck is happening."

It was at this time that Fenrir understood their strange behaviour. "Boy, did you have fun?"

"Yeah, I'm still having it. So shut up!" Ezra retorted.

"Haha, boy, I know why they are after you." Said Fenrir.

"Care to tell me?"

"The duct beasts here are born from the duct energy emitted from the Mountain Duct. Although they possess no intelligence, they are still able to act according to instinct.

Just like normal beasts that you find anywhere else, they possess no intelligence but move with their instincts. And what these beasts will become when they gain insight into martial prowess" 

Ezra's eyes widened as he said. "Martial Animals!"

"Exactly, that's why the natural pressure everyone else has to withstand in the energy reservoir does not have much of an effect on you because according to the nature of the duct, you are a martial animal, not a martial master

Your spiritual energy is force and it is also due to the force that these duct beasts have been chasing you. In their eyes, you are the most delicious of delicacies, and if they manage to eat you, they may even become sentient, allowing them to transform into a true martial animal instead of their current existence where they can only act on instinct."

There was a sliver of amusement in Fenrir's eyes as he gazed at Ezra and continued, "While you want to obtain the Duct Creation Energy in their bodies, they too are also thinking about eating you all the time."

The prince was stunned for a moment. Although he had an inkling that this was the case, only after hearing Fenrir's explanation did he truly understand the reason.

"So the Chaos Force of mine was the culprit. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Said Ezra in a slightly peeved manner.

Fenrir was clearly in the know long ago but had chosen not to inform him. It was obvious that he wanted to enjoy the show, "If I tell you everything, life would be so boring."

Ezra clicked his tongue. "Fuck you, wannabe god."

"Disrespectful prince of kobolds" Fenrir hurled back.

Ezra finally killed all of the horde and not long after, Sköll and Hati came as well, with crystals in their mouths. They hand it over to Ezra and dwarfed their bodies before resting on his shoulders again
