Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

“AH!!!”

Blood-curdling screams filled the canyon.

The Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves charged mercilessly at the people. Those who let their guard down suffered the painful consequence of their decisions!

Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves were actually only about Five-Star Black Steel, not very strong as beasts but with their good night-vision, it was easy for them to take down the soldiers in the darkness! With their speed and their knack for hunting in packs, they were able to overpower the scattered soldiers at their most vulnerable!

Time! Location! People!

These three factors were exactly why the wolves managed to kill all those soldiers.

The Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves attacked the fuzzy troopers who were still recovering from their slumber. Razor sharp canines tore into their soft, breakable necks while powerful claws tore into the delicate flesh!

The soldiers were like sacrificial lambs, unable to escape their cruel fate.

In less than a minute, Northern Wilderness lost over a thousand men in the first wave of attack!

As quickly as the terror fall upon them, the soldiers, many of them still wet behind the ears, finally made acquaintance with the savagery of war!

This was no child’s play, unlike the nugatory fights they had where a few soldiers surrounded a single Demonic Beast!

This… This was the real war!

“Ahh… Argh…”

The cries continued and the pack of wolves had no intention to stop.

Lives lost and hot blood spilled.

This bitter lesson roused the remaining soldiers to fight harder against their enemies.

“Follow closely behind me! Don’t split up! Turn on all the lights! Throw your flash bombs at them! Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves are afraid of bright lights! Let’s kill them while they run amok in panic!” instructed Ning Yuchen.

This battle was different from the previous ones. Apart from Liu Chen and Hu Ben, there were 30 other men in Ning Yuchen’s troop.

Because he was Patinated-bronze rank, he ran ahead of the others, to buy his troops time.

Bright lights illuminated the whole place, so much so that even Ning Yuchen could barely open his eyes. Needless to say, the Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves who were used to the darkness were temporarily blinded and became confused!

“Let’s go!”

Hu Ben gestured the rest of the team to charge, striking the nearest Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves using their fastest ability.

Li Chen ran to Ning Yuchen to protect the Ning Yuchen whose vision was briefly overwhelmed by the light.

Because the Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves were rather weak, and Ning Yuchen’s strategy was on the mark, the fight went smoothly – the dozens of Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves were killed at the double.

On top of that, because Hu Ben had realized their enemies’ attack early on, the battle went well and none in Ning Yuchen’s team were injured or killed. They were considered pretty lucky!

“Get ready your flashlights and flash bombs! Let’s go help the others!”

Ning Yuchen’s vision gradually came back to him as he led his team to another fight.

…

The Northern Wilderness soldiers suffered a great loss because they had underestimated their enemies.

Right now, everyone on their toes and Ning Yuchen’s battle plan was quickly spread to others. Soon, all the Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves fell to the ground, with not a single one left.

“Phew… It finally ended…”

The soldiers exhaled with relief.

The battle was over but there was not a trace of joy on their faces.

The 1,000 Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves killed over 2,000 of the 18,000 men!

In a manner of speaking, the Northern Wilderness appeared to have won a small battle.

But the overall picture of the battle told of the Demonic Beasts’ triumph!

‘Everybody! Stay alert! Let’s do as the commanding officer had told us and return to our positions!” Just when everyone thought that the fight had ended, Ning Yuchen warned them. “We may have won but our defensive formation is gone! If the next group comes, we can only do our best to fight them off!”

Clearly, Ning Yuchen had managed to see the bigger picture!

Apart than the 2,000 casualties, the Ghastly Eyed Zephyr Wolves also succeeded in causing chaos.

The favorable terrain they occupied was lost and they could no longer defend the road as they planned earlier on. So, if there were a second wave of beasts, the soldiers would have to fight them head on!

That would only result in even more casualties for Northern Wilderness!

“Ning Yuchen is right! Everybody head back to your posts! Stay alert!”

The other veteran soldiers who understood the gravity of the situation lead their own teams back to their positions.

But before they could make it back, shrieks could be heard from the mouth of the canyon.

“Abandon your posts! Retreat! All troops retreat!”

The voice belonged to the reconnaissance patrol made up of the six commanding officers of each regiment who were sprinting from the mouth of the canyon.

All six commanding officers were Silver level Elites. But their faces were all as white as paper, as if something terrifying had happed.

“What happened? Why are we retreating? What happened inside?”

The Northern Wilderness Students, seeing their commanding officers running, were puzzled.

“The Demonic Beast have split up into two roads! One group is heading here and the other group is in the hidden canyon behind us! With two hordes of beasts charging towards us, we would be flattened like pancake! We’ll all die indefinitely!” Hao Yue shouted.

“What? They’re closing in on both ends?! Wow, these beasts are really cunning! They sure do know how to play dirty!”

The soldiers were shocked, especially the new recruits. They had never expected the beasts to possess such high intelligence.

“This Beast Horde is being led by a Beast Commander! They are very quick-witted, making them difficult to defeat! There’s no way we can fight this battle! Retreat now!” Hao Yue shouted.

“Re… Retreat…”

The panic spread like wildfire, and the soldiers abandoned everything to run for their lives.

They had just experienced the wrath of the beasts. If they were cornered-in, they would not be able to get out of the canyon alive!

…

The throngs of soldiers began to ran amok.

“See that? That’s the opening!” Hao Yu, who was running ahead, pointed to the front. “The Demonic Beast will be coming from that opening! We have to get out of here before they come!”

The group ran as fast as their legs could carry them.

“Huh? There are no beasts… Nothing… What happened? Could the patrol have been wrong?”

The soldiers made their way out of the opening but there was not a single beast to be seen.

All six commanding officers were disturbed. They had seen it with their own eyes. They could not be wrong.

But where were the beasts?

This was really awkward!

…

On the other side of the opening, a lone man stood before the flock of beasts, a black blade in his hand.

There were a dozen fallen beasts all around him. All of them killed in one slash.

The powerful strikes brought the beasts to a standstill, consumed by fear.

Now, this was the real one man army!
