Chapter 524: Thirteen Devourer (7K)

Yes, the Wildfire believers’ complete wolf transformation has a very serious problem.

The longer they stay fully transformed, the more likely they are to lose their sanity.

In other words, maintaining this state of complete wolf transformation comes at the price of burning away the believers’ rationality.

In this regard, it seems somewhat similar to Bai Wei’s Second Rank Descent, which requires burning the host’s soul.

Once the soul is burned out, the host is completely dead. And when rationality is fully consumed, Wildfire believers become complete monsters, with their humanity entirely erased, never to be saved.

This can also be considered a form of death.

After hearing Bai Wei’s words, Lauren’s expression became much grimmer.

This guy knows even the flaw of their complete wolf transformation so well, coupled with his extremely agile moves during their previous battle, as if he could predict every one of Lauren’s attacks and dodge in advance. If not for his physical limitations, Lauren felt an absurd sense that "he might not be able to hit him even once."

It was as if this guy had fought him hundreds or thousands of times, yet Lauren had no idea who the opponent was.

Such a person appearing here at this moment made it hard for Lauren not to wonder about his true intentions.

Was he targeting their leader?

The killing intent in Lauren’s eyes rose again.

No matter what, he couldn’t let this guy continue.

Tonight, he must kill him... before sanity runs out!

Lauren lunged at Bai Wei once more, and when he was only two body lengths away, he saw Bai Wei crouch, seemingly seeing through his attack methods again, preparing to dodge once more.

Lauren seized this moment and suddenly let out an extremely strange roar.

"Awoo!"

The sound wasn’t loud, but as soon as Bai Wei heard it, his body froze suddenly.

A closer look would reveal he was trembling slightly.

[Spirit Shock]!

Due to being unable to use magic power, the non-physical attack means available to Wildfire believers were few, but not nonexistent.

This [Spirit Shock] was one of them, and its effect was extremely powerful.

By burning rationality even further, it produced a howl that could directly terrify the soul.

Although it could only be effective at close range, and the fear lasted only a few seconds.

But for Wildfire believers who mainly engaged in close combat, this limitation hardly mattered, after all, they didn’t have any long-range attack means.

And a few seconds was already enough for them to kill the opponent countless times at their speed.

Lauren’s claw thrust towards Bai Wei’s forehead.

As long as it hit, the battle would end.

Lauren’s eyes seemed to see the scene of Bai Wei’s brains splattering a second later.

However, at the moment Lauren’s claw was about to touch Bai Wei’s forehead, his body suddenly stopped trembling.

At the same time, he quickly reacted, tilting his head slightly.

Lauren’s claw brushed past his temple, leaving a fine line of blood.

What... how is this possible?!

Lauren’s eyes widened.

The fear is over?!

How long has it been?!

Bai Wei didn’t give Lauren much time to be shocked; as he dodged this lethal attack, he raised the serrated knife in his hand again, slashing down towards the middle head of Lauren.

Originally, Bai Wei’s attack had a hard time dealing effective damage to Lauren’s fully wolf-transformed body.

But Lauren was charging forward rapidly, and the massive accelerating inertia almost made him crash straight into the edge of the serrated knife.

In an instant, the blade, covered in blood, easily sank into Lauren’s neck, as if it could decapitate Lauren in the next second.

But Lauren wouldn’t just watch himself be beheaded. Realizing Bai Wei’s intentions, he forcibly stopped his body’s inertia and then lowered his head abruptly, seemingly wanting to jam the serrated knife lodged in his neck with force.

If Bai Wei wanted to continue the decapitation, he had to exert more force himself.

But Bai Wei didn’t; when Lauren jammed the blade, he suddenly released the handle and kicked Lauren in the chest, using the force to retreat sharply backward.

Because in the next moment, the bristles on Lauren’s body suddenly exploded, sending countless black needle-like bristles stabbing in all directions.

If Bai Wei had stayed to decapitate Lauren, he would have been skewered like a hedgehog now.

But he retreated, so the bursting bristles only sliced his clothing, not even harming his body.

Again!

This guy saw through his intentions again!

Lauren’s teeth were about to shatter!

After the previous attack failed, Lauren decided to use his head as bait temporarily, directly delivering a deadly blow to this damn guy.

But even that didn’t succeed!

Why exactly is this?!

This is not something that can be explained by reaction speed.

This guy... understands him so well it seems he can see through his body to his heart!

How is this possible?!

As Lauren fumed, Bai Wei had already retreated to a relatively safe area and calmly said, "That was close, unfortunately, just a little short."

Bai Wei’s relaxed tone made Lauren even more furious.

This guy, how exactly is he... huh?
