The body shape of the dire wolf was very similar to that of a normal wolf, but they were magical beasts and were much bigger in size than their counterparts, standing more than two meters in height.
They would continue to grow up as their power bases increased.
Each of their four legs had tufts of long hairs from the knees down to the back, and there were large canines protruding from their mouths. The higher the power base, the longer the canine.
The group advanced slowly towards the dire wolves in a crouching position, under the cover of the woods.
Guyon stopped, and manifested his silver-colored essence crystal and transformed it into a crossbow.
The two, with bows and arrows in hand, slowly moved towards the wolves.
One hundred meters, sixty meters, and forty meters, they were getting closer and closer. Then suddenly, a dire wolf with a body size of more than three meters, among the wolf pack, rushed to a huge boulder next to it, and looked in the direction of the hidden hunters.
When Oscar saw it, he immediately raised his hand, and shot an arrow straight at its eyes
Guyon was not slow either, and his arrow swooshed through the air and followed closely behind Oscar's own, streaking towards the dire wolf.
Most dire wolves had wind attributes as their magic base. So their survival mode was based on speed and ferocity. Only a few wolves would show other attributes due to their physique variation and mutation.
But when the feather arrow shot by Oscar was less than ten meters away from the dire wolf's eyes, it tilted its head, and the feather arrow grazed the side of the dire wolf's face, taking away only a handful of hair.
Immediately afterwards, Guyon's arrow arrived. The arrow was just about to fly past its cheek, but then, there was a bright flash which was followed by a loud noise.
Mage magic.
The shock wave immediately blasted the dire wolf more than ten meters away, slamming it heavily against the rocks.
Half of the dire wolf's face was suddenly bloody. As soon as it raised its head, it saw two more feather arrows flying towards it, one after the other. The dire wolf desperately increased the power of his fur shield.
There was another booming sound, and with greater explosive force than before, it blasted away the shield in an instant.
The other feather arrow went straight through the chaotic airflow and slammed into the dire wolf's throat. Its body was even more riddled with arrows brought about by the split arrows.
In a blink of an eye, the horror of the place was gradually replaced with death. The fourth-level dire wolf only heard the howls of its pack before its own death.
With feather arrows knotted, Oscar led the forward-attacks of the hunting groups, looking for the remaining deadly dire wolves. Some of the low-level wolves, at the front, quickly fell down one by one.
But because of the long distance the arrows travelled, the magical defenses of their furs had reduced the power of the arrows before they could reach the beasts.
Seeing the leader of their pack dead, the remaining smaller dire wolves suddenly had no intention of fighting, and fled for their lives.
Now that the number of dire wolves had dropped sharply, Oscar was about to initiate a sweep of the remaining beasts when he saw three silver-level dire wolves jumping on a boulder, with their mouths drooling in anticipation.
Then, their bodies began to glow faintly as they were covered in magical shields. Slowly, they began to trod towards the advancing hunters,
The hunters who were about to charge forward, saw the glows spreading over the bodies of the wolves, making their furs thicker and fangs bigger, and ran back in shock.
"Allow me." Guyon pressed Oscar's shoulder and stepped out, a large silver crystal manifesting in front of him again.
Judging from the size of this crystal, the Birch tribe hunters believed that this mage's power base, should almost be at the same level as that of Mammoth.
There was no doubt that his magical talents were indeed great.
Guyon's body flashed, and appeared more than ten meters away from where he was standing before. The essence crystal in front of him suddenly combust, emitting a huge light brilliance.
In a blink of an eye, the light receded, and a huge bronze lombard suddenly appeared in front of him. It was a mage lombard.
The huge lombard was more than ten meters long, and one meter long in diameter. Its body-cast was of bronze, with two dragon reliefs carved on the left and right sides.
The entire giant lombard revealed infinite majesty of mage magic. This giant lombard was the strongest attack weapon that Guyon could transform his essence crystal into. It was most suitable for long-range attacks and had a wide range.
Guyon recited a spell, and with a thunderous sound, the giant lombard released a huge ball of flame and lightning, and went straight towards the wolves.
Immediately afterwards, there was another earth-shattering explosion. The sand, stone, grass and trees that were rolled up by the huge impact, flew in all directions.
Upon seeing this, the hunters quickly lay on the ground looking for cover to protect their bodies, fearing being affected by the aftermath of the explosion.
Wynter also appeared in front of Oscar, using his essence to manifest a huge metal shield to protect the dozens of people behind him.
After the explosion, the shield of the magical wolves were disintegrated in an instant. Their bloody bodies were riddled with holes, and they could no longer stand still as their bodies continued to shake violently.
Guyon recovered his essence, and the giant lombard instantly turned into a light orb and disappeared into his body.
Immediately afterwards, countless dots of light converted on his hands, and turned into a real recurve bow. He drew his right hand on the empty bowstring, and three glowing feather arrows appeared on the string.
Then, he pulled the bow, and aimed the three arrows at the three wolves who were still shaking. "Flawless."
