Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 904

Chapter 904: Chapter 904 - Taming the Fifth Year - Attrition - Final Battle - 3

The shadow realm was a strange territory for most tamers.

Disorienting and difficult to navigate.

But for those specialized in the shadow element, to the level of Luna’s wolf, it was an advantageous ground where normal rules didn’t fully apply.

The wolf had what effectively would be a 2x multiplier for Shadow control that appeared at Gold 1 and Ren didn’t fully understand.

The Wolverine was at a small disadvantage of around 100 points in shadow control but not helpless. It could perceive perfectly, could move and could fight there.

Just not as effectively as the wolf could...

But that was acceptable. Ren’s strategy didn’t require dominating the shadow space. Just having the information and surviving there long enough to force engagement in the other elements where his bigger advantages would assert themselves.

But before the first confrontation in the dark world could develop, something changed in the solemn atmosphere of the confrontation for Ren.

The earth began trembling. A weird vibration started subtle but intensifying rapidly to the point where it was impossible to ignore.

Not a technique Ren was executing...

The Wolverine’s earth control wouldn’t cause this type of vibration he felt propagating through the ground. When it used earth manipulation, the sensation was controlled.

This was chaotic...

Was it a technique from Luna then?

Wolf capability she hadn’t previously revealed? Terrain manipulation preparing for massive attack?

No. This was something coming from a deep place outside the permitted arena range.

Ren’s amplified senses felt it first. Perception sharpened beyond most tamers capability detecting signals that other specialists would need additional moments to recognize.

There were presences approaching. Multiple signatures converging from below toward the academy from directions completely surrounding the perimeter.

Beasts. Not just one or two but dozens. No, he gave himself a correction as the count updated with the additional information he was now processing: hundreds of beasts were approaching from the depths from above the controlled zones from the tamers supposedly protecting the city.

The numbers were staggering when Ren’s perception fully processed them.

In a depth that should have been safely within controlled territory where patrols would have detected and eliminated or reported corrupted beasts long before they accumulated to this density.

Had they entered from some breach near surface level?

It was weird taking into account the wall structure and the approach pattern wasn’t random. It was coordinated in ways suggesting intelligent direction rather than natural dispersed invasion.

Not scattered attacks from different angles arriving at different times. But synchronized convergence like designed to hit multiple points simultaneously.

Like a classical military encirclement tactic.

Ren looked toward where in the semifinals Selphira and Julius had been stationed but now their mana presences were absent. He felt a cold recognition settling in his stomach.

A sudden understanding.

They weren’t here because they were dealing with this. Had maybe been dealing with it for hours or even almost 2 days. The situation that had pulled them away from watching the finals. The crisis that had been developing outside academy walls while students competed in exam battles.
