A giant blue-black wolf ran through the wilderness.
Its body was slender, its limbs robust, its eyes flickered with the light of wisdom as it blinked. Its erect pointed ears revolved like a radar, collecting every faint sound carried in the wind.
Above the mountaintops at the end of the wilderness, several golden eagles circled.
From the far-off riverbank, a refreshing breeze came intermittently.
Even while the giant wolf ran, it often felt the presence of something prickling on its back.
The giant wolf knew these were the tactics of other hunting teams—the golden eagles, for example, were likely summoned by the school's hunting team, the seekers. The rustling valley breeze was a searching magic typical of the Jiuyou Academy Hunting Team. And that sensation of being watched, as if grubs gnawing on bones, could only come from Alpha Academy's Augustus's powerful divination in this hunting ground.
