The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1722

Chapter 1722: Wolverines

The first thing to arrive was not the hounds, but the wolverines.

Thirty kilos of fangs and anger, shaped roughly like Cara, but with light-brown fur that made them look more like an angry tiny bear.

The larger golems had a hard time dealing with them, as they were so close to the ground, attacking the lower legs and trying to rush past to get to the inner ranks of the defenders.

And like Cara, it was a nightmare to stop them without putting up an actual barrier.

Nobody wanted to do that, as it would stop them from effectively attacking outward, and make their sight lines even more limited than they already were. So, they were going to have to get into melee combat, even with so many Golems around.

Cara, for one, was overjoyed.

Not only were they her size, but they were sneaky sorts. Sure, they were driven insane by the dungeon, but they were still intelligent enough to avoid the golems and go for the targets that looked much easier to shred.

Unfortunately, appearances were deceiving.

The first one that they went for was Dana, and with [Auto Parry] combined with her exceptional agility, they were having zero luck hitting her while the mage continually blasted them.

Everyone had assumed that they would go for Karl next, as most dungeon mobs targeted by power level, then went for the healers.

But the wolverines didn’t. Instead, they went for Elder Socrate and Remi.

That greatly amused Cara, though she could see why the little snake was the next logical target. She was at the same power level as Karl and Dana, and while she was next to the Alchemy Elder, she was much smaller than everyone else, excluding Tian.

The fox was standing on Leo’s back, as the pair of them floated over the main battle, healing as needed, and using Leo’s nature magic to create nets of vines that would slow the attacking forces down.

Keeping them in the outer ranks of the battle, where the golems could take the damage, was a much better option.

Unfortunately, while the Wolverines showed no intentions of coming up after them, the hellhounds would be arriving soon, and they were perfectly capable of jumping high enough to attack the pair in their attempts to land in the middle of the battle.

They would have to rely on Thor when the time came. He was the one with the best control over [Bulwark], and that barrier was much more effective than anything else they had at preventing enemies from getting inside their formation.

The howling of the hellhounds was coming from all around them now, as the Kobold team leaders arranged them for one large assault.

They weren’t remaining stationary while they prepared the assault. They couldn’t stage in place with the effects of [Apocalypse] spreading through the area.

But they also couldn’t wait long, as they had no healers, and there was both toxic fog and burning embers blowing on the wind that would continually weaken them as they waited. So, the moment that they had decided they were close enough to where they needed to be, a horn blew, and the whole section of the dungeon was charging at them.
