Chapter 1207: Chapter 1207: Pseudo-Wolf (Looking for Monthly Votes)

"This is something sent from Limen City to Konovi City by the Stars Pharma Security Company in July 725?"

Upon hearing He Ao’s narration, Xiya summarized with some confusion, "Year 725, which was thirty-four years ago? This Church of Chaos stronghold attacked Stars Pharma’s convoy thirty-four years ago and seized this item?"

She slightly furrowed her brows, "And then these Chaotic Believers brought the item near Minte City?"

"I am not sure either,"

He Ao silently gazed at the jade box in his hand, embedded with wooden stems, and glanced at the silent hall around him,

"Perhaps there is some deeper story hidden within."

His gaze finally focused, and he slowly lifted his head, looking at the diamond overhead.

The northern mountains of Minte City exuded a unique attraction related to Order.

And this floating dodecahedral, fluid-like diamond also exhibited a bizarre state associated with Order.

Drawing from Suote’s memory and what he saw while clearing the Order Church’s warehouse ’carried’ by the West Iron and Steel Mercenary Corps.

He Ao could determine that this was the pollution of Order.

This diamond was evidently from the Order Church; even if not directly from there, it had strong connections to it.

The Order Church’s item, bearing the emblem of Stars Pharma, was escorted by their security company and ended up in the hands of the Church of Chaos.

The situation seemed to grow more chaotic as clues increased.

Like a tangled mess of threads, the more you try to sort it out, the more tangled it becomes.

Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his mind, He Ao withdrew his gaze, glanced at the jade box in his hand, and slowly opened it.

The ’lining’ formed by intertwined wooden roots appeared in He Ao’s field of view.

As the jade box opened, the dodecahedral diamond shimmering in the sky trembled slightly.

An invisible force emanated from the jade box, like roots born in the void, dragging the diamond down, bit by bit, towards the jade box below.

Soon, the diamond descended most of the way, hovering in front of He Ao, about to fall into the jade box.

Just at that moment, a bright yellow radiance suddenly burst from a small door leading to a corridor, like a whirlwind, swirling towards He Ao’s jade box and the diamond about to fall into it.

The light was so swift that Xiya had not even noticed its appearance before it reached in front of He Ao.

But He Ao seemed like he had anticipated this scene. The moment the light appeared, he held the jade box with one hand, sidestepped, and simultaneously moved the jade box and the diamond aside, avoiding the light’s "entanglement."

Meanwhile, his free hand gripped the blood knife’s hilt behind his back.

With a soft ’clang,’ the scarlet glow unsheathed, slicing through the sky.

Like a dancing blade colliding with a falling boulder, the explosive force shattered the already cracked pedestal.

Xiya, standing beside He Ao, felt a gentle ’force’ push her, causing a slight tremor, then she was knocked back to the corner of the hall.

Only at this moment did Xiya notice the sudden appearance of the bright yellow light.

In the chaotic explosion of debris, she clearly saw the ’specific form’ of that bright yellow light.

It was a translucent, completely snow-white ’wolf head’ bathed in bright yellow light.

This wolf head bore some resemblance to the ’wolf-headed man’ they encountered in the corridor earlier, only much larger, with a lateral width of about seventy or eighty centimeters.

And now, the gigantic wolf head was opening its sharp mouth, showing its fangs, tightly biting the red blade.

Behind the wolf head wasn’t a normal wolf’s body but a mist wreathed in bright yellow light.

This cloud seemed to conceal some kind of twisted power; just a glance made Xiya feel as if something was pulling her soul, causing a momentary stiffness throughout her body.

Yet, this force was ultimately not as overpowering as the chaotic storm unleashed by the Chaos Magic Wand just moments ago.

Moreover, the wolf head’s primary target wasn’t Xiya, so she quickly withdrew her gaze from the cloud behind the wolf head.

Observing this monstrous wolf head, a name abruptly flashed in Xiya’s mind, ’Pseudo-Wolf.’

Even among the Wilderness Wanderers, the exact status and appearance of a Pseudo-Wolf were inaccurate.

But as soon as this wolf head appeared, no other term came to Xiya’s mind.

The Pseudo-Wolf’s activity area was around here, and with the wolf head’s shape, she couldn’t think of anything else.

Is the Pseudo-Wolf really here?!

Why is it in this state? Why didn’t we discover it earlier? Where exactly was it hiding?

Of course, while Xiya was pondering, He Ao’s actions showed no hint of pausing.

In the instant the blood-red blade was bitten by the wolf head, He Ao’s hand gripping the blade shook in reverse.

This violent tremor shook the wolf head so much that it creaked, with the teeth and blade clashing fiercely.

Yet, the move didn’t shake off the wolf head; instead, it struggled harder, biting even tighter, almost clinging to the blade.

At the same time, the radiance trailing from the back of the wolf head wrapped around, aiming toward He Ao’s neck.

He Ao raised his hand and directly tossed the jade box, along with the diamond partially entered into it, towards the direction where Xiya was.

Upon seeing this, the wolf head immediately released the blood knife and darted towards the jade box.

Just then, a red light flashed through the void once more.

He Ao swung the ruby staff in his hand in a wide arc, striking the wolf head hard.

The airborne wolf head was violently hit, its form swaying, spinning backward like a spinning top whipped away.

The wolf head tried to stabilize mid-air, but a crescent-shaped scarlet sword light swiped through the sky, slicing the spinning wolf head in two.

The severed wolf head did not bleed or fall apart; instead, enveloped in the bright yellow light behind it, the split wound began to heal again.

He Ao raised his head, glancing at the mending wolf head.

In the gaze of Divine Sense, the wolf head had energy circuits but no convergence point, with a form slightly resembling life but not entirely.

Though pondering, He Ao’s hands never paused.

As the wolf head attempted to heal, he rose again, lifting his knife, attaching Divine Sense to the blade, and abruptly slashed at the junction of the bright yellow radiance and the wolf head.

The sharp blade cut into the seemingly formless glow, encountering a ’soft’ resistance similar to cutting into flesh.

Most of the time, Divine Sense is highly effective against such bizarrely formed creatures.

The glow trembled violently, seemingly unprepared to be struck by the blood knife.

Unfortunately, He Ao gave it no additional time to react; within an instant, the connecting point between the glow and the wolf head was severed.

The previously split wolf head shivered briefly, then fell from the sky, landing on the ground, split in half.

Inside the head was pale flesh, an empty brain, with no trace of blood.

After the separation from the head, the bright yellow glow in the sky twisted violently, then shattered with a ’bang,’ scattering into countless sparkles and rapidly dissipating.

"Dead?"

Only now did Xiya clumsily catch the jade box, looking towards He Ao.

The diamond in her hand was nearly fully embedded in the jade box.

"Still is,"

He Ao lifted his head, glancing once at the deep small door ahead, then at the shattered chains beside it, "That thing never wanted to leave, perhaps it was guarding this diamond."

"Huh?"

Xiya was slightly taken aback.

Boom——

Just then, the small door connecting to the corridor shuddered violently, twisted red glow flickering inside the corridor.

Subsequently, accompanied by the creaking sounds of ’eek—eek—,’ the previously piled headless corpses in the corridor one by one stood up.

They wobbled their bodies, found their severed wolf heads on the ground, then fumbled, ’thud——,’ placing the heads onto their necks.

Some got the direction wrong, walked a couple of steps, realized it, then took off their heads, turned them around, and put them on again.

Meanwhile, a dense cluster of wolf-headed men appeared from the end of the corridor, swaying their bodies towards this side.

Their bodies, far less agile than during the first encounter, resembled corpses rising from graves, lurching forward awkwardly.

Scarlet radiance cast over these wolf-headed men, bestowing a layer of vivid red on their twisted bodies.

Xiya observed each wolf-headed man; despite the eerily terrifying scene, she wasn’t greatly frightened.

After all, she had witnessed He Ao decapitating these wolf-headed men effortlessly; these creatures weren’t formidable when alive, let alone as ’resurrected’ corpses.

However, just as she entertained this thought, the crimson glow flickering in the corridor intensified slightly.

It seemed as though pervasive blood swept the void, dripping like rain.

Under this blood-red light, fine fur seeped from the wolf-headed men’s skin, enshrouding their bodies.

"Growl——"

The foremost wolf-headed man abruptly roared, darting towards He Ao.

His movement was highly uncoordinated, yet his speed was abnormally fast, nearly beyond Xiya’s ability to track him.

D-level power.

She quickly deduced in her mind.

Moreover, it was a relatively strong D-level power.

Just one, or······

As this thought crossed her mind, yet another wolf-headed man leapt forward at the same swift speed toward He Ao.

A flash of scarlet sword light passed by, severing the two wolves-headed men in half, dropping them to the ground.

These wolf-headed men, once ’resurrected,’ were far more potent than before.

And with the charge of those two wolf-headed men, the dense swarm in the rear also charged out of the corridor towards He Ao.

They raised their hands, extending sharp claws, swiping through the air without hesitation as they rushed at He Ao.

With their charge, the omnipresent blood in the corridor began seeping out from the small door, gradually filling the expansive hall.

He Ao raised his sword light, swiftly slaughtering the oncoming wolf-headed men before him.

Each corpse fell before He Ao, with a hint of scarlet glow emanating from the pale flesh within.

The glow began spreading like blood upon the cracked ground, gradually covering it.

As more corpses piled up, the proliferation of scarlet across the ground surged.

Soon, the bodies of the wolf-headed men covered the ground before He Ao, and the flowing scarlet extended to his feet.

The blood seeping from the small door rapidly rushed over, swiftly linking with the scarlet emanating from the corpses on the ground.

In a flash, the hall before He Ao was engulfed by bizarre, twisted light.

An intangible horror loomed over the hall.

With the intertwining of the blood seeping from the corridor, the spread of scarlet across the ground accelerated, rapidly crossing beneath He Ao’s feet.

Scarlet radiance seeped from the ’blood’ on the ground, covering the fallen corpses.

In the instant they were enveloped by the glowing blood, they twisted once more.

The severed bodies rose yet again, finding the other halves of their bodies, reassembling themselves.

Then they charged at He Ao once more.

Like an undead army, they never ceased their attacks.

Yet, He Ao stood within the scarlet hue, seemingly oblivious to the ’resurrected’ wolf-headed men, continuing to wield his blade, ruthlessly slaughtering those charging at him.

These wolf-headed men, though formidable individually, were limited to brief outbursts of D-level attack, and were extremely fragile, easily sliced in half with a single swing.

But even if these wolf-headed men were weak, their relentless surging inevitably affected He Ao.

His stamina rapidly depleted in this ’rotational battle,’ and the previously sealed wounds started tearing slightly after prolonged movement.

His blade-wielding motion became less fluid, revealing a couple of flaws, although quickly remedied.

Nevertheless, his movements genuinely slowed considerably.

Moonlight, eerie and pervasive, spread across the hall, lurking in the corridor’s darkness.

In the intangible radiance, a gaze seemed hidden, observing everything on Da Jing Street.

The wolf-headed men’s charge persisted, and He Ao’s movements grew increasingly sluggish; soon, what were insignificant flaws became apparent breaches.

And at the very moment his vulnerability showed, a dazzling radiance of bright yellow burst forth from the corridor layered in scarlet, directly colliding towards He Ao.

In haste, He Ao could only raise his blood knife, twisting his hand forward, facing the celestial glow head-on.

Boom——

A booming blast echoed, enormous power transmitting through his body.

Beneath He Ao, layers of cracks rapidly spread, subsequently shattering explosively, scattering debris.

These fragments struck the wolf-headed men, ripping them apart, blasting them into a bloody mist.

Simultaneously, He Ao retracted his blade, retreating to shed part of the impact.

He raised the blood knife, looking at the figure emerging before him, a slight smirk gracing his lips.
