Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Moss and the others heard the earth rumble.

The loud howl shook the valley entrance and rustled the trees in the lush forest nearby. Everyone felt the howl’s impact even though there weren’t any Explosive Wolves around.

“The Explosive Wolves must be approaching. Stay alert, everyone!” Bailey stiffened his neck and shouted as his bloodshot eyes revealed fear.

Moss knew that the Mystic Realm Boss was nearby when he heard the familiar howl. He also determined that the number of wolves heading toward them was much smaller than the previous pack. According to Moss’s estimation, there should be no more than forty Explosive Wolves.

Moss looked into the forest depths and noticed faint black silhouettes moving around. He frowned, not expecting the wolves to be so fast. Moss sensed the wolves nearby and didn’t hesitate to shout, “Everyone, get to the valley entrance! The pack of Explosive Wolves is coming! I’ll stay behind!”

Cullen gathered his thoughts and ran toward the valley entrance. He turned his head and yelled, “Follow me to the valley entrance!”

The others woke up from their shock and moved under Cullen’s orders. They quickly ran toward the valley and turned their heads to look at the forest depths from time to time with their shock-filled faces.

However, Alan remained still when the others ran toward the valley entrance. Moss waved his hand and said, “Get out of here, Alan. It’s dangerous!”

The Mystic Realm Boss’s roar reverberated through the valley, but it looked like Alan didn’t hear it. He only stood still.

Moss saw two Explosive Wolves pouncing toward them and immediately raised two shields to protect himself and Alan. Although those were level eight shields, the two Explosive Wolves used Wolf Spike and Sharp Fangs and Claws, cracking the shields.

The two wolves leaped into the air after attacking the shield to continue their onslaught. Still, Moss leaped and swung his sword horizontally, instantly killing the level six Explosive Wolves.

The Mystic Realm Boss ran forward and noticed someone defending against its pack tenaciously. It immediately activated its Wolf Charge and Sharp Fangs and Claws.

The boss applied a powerful force on Moss’s shields, creating a shockwave. The force instantly pushed Moss backward about five to six meters while it sent Alan flying.

Moss’s shields had already shattered before he could even stabilize himself. “What a powerful impact!” Moss couldn’t help but exclaim.

He had summoned a level eight Guardian’s Shield that could withstand a four thousand kilogram attack, meaning that the white-furred Mystic Realm Boss’s attack was about four thousand kilograms worth of force. Otherwise, Moss’s shield wouldn’t have shattered so easily.

Moss couldn’t help but become shocked by the boss’s might. Nonetheless, he didn’t stop defending himself and quickly summoned two more shields as he flew toward Alan.

When the boss’s attack sent Alan flying, Moss became worried. Moss frowned and quickened his pace. The Mystic Realm Boss saw that Moss could still dash around even after its attack.

“Awoo!”

The white-furred Magical beast let out a deafening howl in Moss’s direction, affecting even the others nearing the valley entrance. Some of the lower-leveled students even fainted.

The other Explosive Wolves immediately pounced toward the two fainted students. The two students stopped moving after the Explosive Wolves fiercely bit them.

Moss felt sorry for the two when he saw that. He only felt a little dizzy even though he was the closest to the Mystic Realm Boss. Moss shook his head a few times and regained his focus.

Moss didn’t have such a big reaction toward Wolf Howl because he observed the Mystic Realm Boss’s movements as he ran toward Alan. When Moss realized that the white-furred wolf was about to howl, he leaped toward Alan.

Then he hugged Alan and used his shield to protect himself and his best friend before rolling to the side at high speed. “That was close!”

Moss stood up and took his shield while looking at the white-furred wolf. Then he broke out in a cold sweat. Alan finally gathered his thoughts after Moss saved him. “Ouch! Moss, your shield is poking me!”

Alan immediately got up and rubbed his back. But when he swept his gaze from Moss, he saw the white-furred Mystic Realm Boss staring at him fiercely. Alan couldn’t help but tremble.

Alan hurriedly picked up Moss’s shield and hid behind a big tree. He kept wiping the sweat off his forehead as he peered at the Mystic Realm Boss between Moss’s shield and the big tree. He shouted with a trembling voice, “M-Moss, I think the boss is targeting us!”

“Yes, it is. It’s too late for us to run now. Alan, my shield should protect you as long as it doesn’t get hit by the boss’s lunges. Also, the good news is that the other Explosive Wolves have gone to the valley entrance, and I’ve reached level nine.”

Moss initially wanted to give Alan two shields but decided against it because he feared it would affect Alan’s movements. Moss turned around and asked urgently. “How much of that paralyzing potion do you have left?”

“W-Wait, you’re already at level nine? You’re just too awesome, Moss,” Alan muttered. He seemed to have forgotten about the Mystic Realm Boss’s presence as he admiringly praised Moss.

Moss didn’t know why Alan was so shocked and urged him, “Alan, I need to know how much paralyzing potion you have left. They’ll come in handy in a second.”

Finally, Alan heard Moss’s question. He immediately gathered his thoughts and noticed that the Mystic Realm Boss was about to pounce on them. He shuddered and shouted, “Moss, the boss is about to pounce! Dodge, quickly!”

Moss had already noticed this. Before the Mystic Realm Boss could get close to Moss, he had already jumped behind the big tree, leaving a shield behind.

The white-furred Mystic Realm Boss collided with the shield but was surprised when the shield did not shatter even though there were a few cracks.

Then a dark red light shot toward the white-furred wolf. Since the Mystic Realm Boss devoted all its attention to Moss, it didn’t notice the dark red light before it was too late.

The dark red light pierced into the white-furred Explosive Wolf’s body. Then the Mystic Realm Boss shook and slowly fell to the ground as it cried in agony.

“We did it!”

“Captain Cullen is mighty!”

“That’s awesome! Captain Cullen is the first person to conquer the Mystic Realm Boss!”

Moss heard the wolf’s heart-wrenching cry and looked at the other students. He knew that Cullen had led Bailey and the others to the Mystic Realm Boss.

“The Mystic Realm Boss died just like that?!” Alan exclaimed in disbelief.

Seeing Alan’s shocked expression, a loud howl echoed before Moss could say anything.

“Awoo!”

The howl was loud and sudden. Moss’s ears started buzzing, and he felt as though the world was spinning.
