The ten monks scoffed. “Bless you. Great Marshal, don't you think that you're too confident in yourself? Although we have submitted ourselves to the Netherworld, we're still monks. We're still the people of our God, and we're still under the protection of our God. Great Marshal, who do you think is stronger? You, or our God?”
“Your God? If your God is useful to Eurasia, then he is a God. If he is on the side of traitors and miscreants, then he is also a traitor, and I'll kill him too!”
The ten monks fumed. “How dare you humiliate our God? We'll definitely kill you for this! Daemonium, give us the order!”
“Hahaha!” Daemonium cackled. “Let's kill to our hearts' content today! Attention, Fourth Branch, set up the Mors Formation!”
“Understood!”
Right as they uttered that, the ten monks retreated hundreds of meters in various directions while making sure that Zeke was in the middle of their circle.
The hearts of Sole Wolf and the others lurched at that as they tensed up.
These monks are powerful! From the speed they moved earlier, I'd say they're at least King Class warriors, so they're not much weaker than us.
Zeke and Daemonium were both Celestial Class warriors.
Hence, it was actually tough to say who would be the winner of the day.
Nevertheless, Sole Wolf forced himself to stay calm as he stretched his back. “My, it's been a while since I last had the chance to exercise. This will be a good time for me to do so. Come at me! I'll make sure you're crying like a baby by the end of this!”
With that said, Sole Wolf charged toward them.
Daemonium scoffed and commanded, “Charge!”
At that, the monks instantly whipped out their wooden bells and began knocking on them.
The sounds of the wooden bells seemed like spells, for they messed with people's minds.
Sole Wolf and the others instantly felt the world spin around them as a fog appeared in their minds. They found it challenging to stay focused. It felt as if they were drunk.
That infuriated Sole Wolf, who hissed, “F*ck you! Stop knocking those d*mn things! You're making me have a headache! Die, b*stards! Ares, you'll head east. Nameless, you'll head west. Alfred and Tyler, you'll both head south. Leave the north to me! Zeke, I'll leave Daemonium to you.”
“Okay.”
No one uttered a word of protest as they launched themselves like rockets toward their opponents, ready to fight the monks to their deaths.
However, before they could get close to the ten monks, the surface of the river abruptly rippled.
Along with the ripples came the spider men.
Right as the spider men leaped out of the river and landed on the ground, they turned into ferocious beasts and began attacking Sole Wolf and the rest.
With each punch Sole Wolf made, he sent five flying. With each kick he made, he sent six tumbling.
At the same time, the others were doing similarly well too.
As Sole Wolf fought, he cursed, “Is that all? Stop making me f*cking look down on you all.”
At that, the ten monks responded, “As you wish.”
They then began knocking on their wooden bells harder.
More and more spider men began jumping out of the river.
In fact, thousands of spider men had emerged from the river in the blink of an eye.
They then rushed toward Sole Wolf and the others.
Moreover, their footsteps were quaking the earth.
Before they could come any closer, Sole Wolf jumped up into the air before landing on the group of spider men and slamming against them.
He did not even bother swinging out his fists as he cleared a path out by smashing against them.
“Haha! This is fun! What a rare chance for me to fight without needing to think! Thank you for the opportunity, Daemonium! Haha! Nameless, let's compete. Let's see who'll kill more enemies!”
Ares then reminded, “Sole Wolf, you have to save some of your strength. The ten monks might be trying to deplete our stamina with the spider men before fighting us themselves. The ten monks aren't much weaker than us. If our stamina is depleted, we might not be a match for them.”
At that, Sole Wolf barked out a laugh. “Deplete our stamina? Don't worry. Even if I'm tired as h*ll, I'll still be able to beat up these bunch of baldies!”
A bitter smile appeared on Ares' face at Sole Wolf's response before the former threw himself into the fight as well.
Indeed, there's a reason for Sole Wolf to be known as a battle maniac.
