Chapter 919: Horde.
Shi Lang sat close to the tree line and shot with the sniper rifle whenever the team of four people needed help. The barbarian void wolf was not an easy thing to deal with. This guy was very opportunistic. As soon as the Yang soldiers revealed a slightest of a loop hole, this guy would move in to kill.
During their battle, Shi Lang observed clearly, the weak points of this creature. It reacted well to sound and had a good sight. It was fast as well, but it was not good at defending when their were too many people attacking it. The back of this creature was it's obvious weak spot.
Many times, Shi Lang thought of shooting at the back of the creature's skull but Yang Harwing told him that the creature was precious and would give good returns if caught alive. The Yang Family was known for defending the Battlefield, but they also had merchant connections to sale what they looted.
The four people fought for seventeen minutes, and they finally managed to trap the beast inside an array formation. They restricted the spiritual energy and blocked all of the pores to stop the inflow of the spiritual energy inside its body.
The creature lay on the ground, squirming and struggling. Yang Xiaoling took out a bag from her space ring and pointed it towards the barbarian void wolf. Shi Lang watched keenly what was going on, he could sense vague spatial fluctuations covering the creature. However, his heart was restless. He looked around quickly, but he could not find anything out of the ordinary.
Suddenly, the creature let out a low growl, and fell down on the ground. The next moment, a few space tunnels opened up, and Shi Lang shouted, "You guys, hurry up. This thing has called for back up."
The disciples of the Yang family were surprised, and Yang Xiaoling kept the Barbarian Void Wolf inside the spatial bag, and said, "Yang Tu, go and alert the villagers."
Shi Lang approached them and said, "Forgive me for speaking out of line, can we not erect a array formation around the village. This way we won't have to worry about them being safe."
Yang Xiaoling thought and said, "Yes, but we don't have an array expert among us."
Shi Lang said, "I will take care of that, can you all handle this horde?"
Yang Xiaoling revealed a confident smile and said, "Don't worry we can handle it."
The Terran looked at the group of four and dashed away. He pushed his speed to the maximum because he had a bad feeling and he was yet to be proven wrong when it came to the matter of instincts.
Shi Lang retracted the nano-bot glove on his right hand and manipulated a lot of blood cells to condense into seven drops. He created seven clones and took out seven sets of spiritual array materials. Then he said, "Go and erect array formations around the village, and when you are done, move the corpses inside the barrier."
The clones nodded dashed away at a great speed. They were fast enough to deal with such issues. Shi Lang sat back to supervise them and did not intervene with the Yang Family team. He saw a horde of at least two dozen Barbarian Wolves charging at them. The Terran used the advanced features of his visor to analyze the movements of these creatures.
Lou Shin appeared next to him and asked, "Why are you not fighting the creatures of the ten thousand races?"
Shi Lang asked, "I thought you would not appear beside me until I am in mortal danger."
Lou Shin rolled her eyes and said, "I wouldn't have come over, but you are an anomaly in my life, Xiao Lang. I cannot understand anything that you are doing. Can you not work along the lines of common sense?"
Shi Lang replied, "I am working along the lines of my own common sense. I find their way of fighting very silly. They are not efficient at all, skilled yes, but not efficient."
Lou Shin asked with curiosity, "Can you take down these creatures quicker than them?"
Shi Lang took a few minutes and replied, "Yes."
Lou Shin sighed and while gazing at the group of people fighting he said, "Looks like you will have to take an action. They are getting pressured."
The Terran took out his sword and said, "I won't be keeping these creatures alive for what they have done to the villagers."
Lou Shin nodded and said, "You can kill freely, no one will question you, after all, they are being pressed now."
Shi Lang turned around to look at the village and saw a golden barrier shimmering around the boundary of the village. He then took out his sword and vanished from his place. Lou Shin raised her head to look at the young man who was levitating in the void.
Golden lightning flashing around his body, and he shot down towards the beasts on the ground. He said, "Raksha, time to dance."
The sword spirit replied, "Oh finally some blood to taste."
...
Yang Xiaoling and Yang Harwing were fighting back to back. The latter said, "Shit, Tu and Ding are being pressed."
Yang Xiaoling replied to him, "I do not have the time to baby sit at the moment, Harwing."
She was cold, but not without logic. How could she save others when she was busy defending against the attacks of three creatures at once? Suddenly, a mournful howl echoed in the battle field and the creatures stopped attacking. They looked in the direction where the shout came from and howled loudly.
Yang Xiaoling and her bunch took a deep breath, when a voice echoed in their minds, "Are you going to watch them dance around you? Stab through their backs, I am not keeping them alive."
The four of them woke up and reacted quickly. They delivered lethal attacks at the back of the Barbarian Wolves closest to them. The creatures died while howling in pain and irreconciled emotions bubbling up in their hearts.
On the other side, Shi Lang was so quick to move that he flashed around the place hopping from back to back and just a few minutes later, the battle field was silent. Yang Harwing asked, "Can you tell me if it was really us who killed these guys with such ease?"
The barbarian wolves were confused by the dual attacks. Shi Lang would time the kill exactly when the creatures looked at Yang Family. The leader of the group was the mutated one, without his command they were just attacking anyone who stood in their way.
Shi Lang understood that they worked like wolves. Their strength lied in unity and team work. When he killed one of them, the barbarian wolves stopped attacking Yang Family team but they turned to look at Shi Lang. Then, just as they were about to attack Shi Lang, the Yang Family made a kill.
Anyhow, within a few minutes, the creatures were all dealt with. Yang Xiaoling looked at him and said, "Harwing, do you think this guy can be a good addition to the hunting team?"
The latter was surprised but he nodded and replied, "He is a strong guy and his skills are there. If he could clear the test, he might join the hunting team."
Yang Xiaoling nodded and said, "Let's see what is his stand about this proposal."
