Chapter 319 Frontal Battle, Debuff Clearing!

Awoooooo!

Before doing anything, hundreds of werewolves raised their snouts, howling to the sky. Their dark blue eyes shined to reflect the rising moon as their pitch-black fur glistened under its light.

'As troublesome as always.'

Unlike the usual werewolves in the legend, moonlight didn't actually have any strengthening effect on these specific werewolves, which was why Leo didn't bother with the timing of his reveal. However, just like every other special monster, they had more than one annoying special ability.

"Can we really beat them all…?"

"Jang Hyung… Why don't we just run?"

Their howl wasn't just an instinctual act, but rather their own method to weaken enemies. Other than their tricky scents, a werewolf's howl possessed the ability to impose a state of 'Fear' on other species.

Although a lone werewolf's howl wasn't that effective, depending on their number and ability, a pack of werewolves could muster quite the mental attack. In this case, it would be an understatement to call the monsters infesting Dae Kyung Town a single pack.

However, Leo had already thought of the greatest counter to this preliminary attack. The Scarlet Sky Breathing Method was known for its brutality on both the physical and mental scales. Of course, just practicing it wouldn't make someone immune to all damage, but if it was someone whose affinity was through the roof…

"Yeon, now!"

Even before Leo had spoken out, Yeon was already preparing to make her move. In the middle of the circle where the barely decided Martial Artists had fallen into doubt once more, she unleashed her field of pressure to cover all of their followers.

Her pressure field made by covering the area in dispersed Internal Energy couldn't compete with something like Cheon Jeong's, but it had just the required level of strength for the situation.

"Are you going to cower into the side once more? Stand up!"

The pressure similarly pushed Jang-Do down just like the Fear effect did, but the sanguine bloodshed that covered everyone seemed to wake them up from their cowering slumber, this was not the time to falter!

The werewolves naturally wouldn't wait for them to recover, ganging up on the small group. However, Cheon Yong's rampage was more than enough to demolish the early advanced forces. As the commander and the strongest, the werewolf chief who was likely the clan leader didn't directly engage from the start, but this cost him some quick losses.

Crackle!

Using the Silver Dragon as a javelin, Leo imitated Cheon Chang's thunderclap throws. He wasn't strong enough to call down the lightning of death from the sky itself, but charging the spear with Black Dragon Energy was more than enough.

Cheon Sohee's attacks had a smaller radius, but her wind blades could take out a few enemies at once. Although the battle looked like it would end in the werewolves' annihilation if it went on as is, that was merely an illusion.

The gap in the distance made it easy to destroy as they wanted, but the monsters using their comrades as shields would soon converge around them, disallowing them from attacking unless they gave up defense or evasion!

In a sense, the situation wasn't that much different from their team's battle with the Devouring Centaur. By overwhelming them with attacks, the werewolves truly stood a chance to turn the situation into a stalemate that could end in their victory!

"Do not freeze in fear! We didn't endure those hellish days back at the Furnace to end up shaking like this."

This was precisely why Yeon gave up her early participation in the battle in order to remove the debuff cast on the people they brought to make up for the difference in numbers. As someone destined to bear the whole Scarlet Sky's weight, her performance could only succeed!

Swish!

"Didn't you always wish for a chance to prove that you aren't that much worse than them? Isn't this the greatest opportunity to prove that by having their backs?"

He had been trying to resist earlier, but it was only now that Jang-Do's broadsword could move about once again, awkwardly slashing the werewolves that were starting to fill up the area around him.

Swish! Swish!

"Yeah! Let's do it!"

"Not only for them but also for ourselves!"

Yeon's aura was helping a lot, but even just Jang-Do's words had a great effect, pushing mental attacks through mental support. The followers undeniably had to prove their worth as members of the Heavenly Society, but most importantly, they first had to survive!

Leo and the others had brought them here, but they didn't speak of acting as their nannies. If they remained frozen in place after all of that, then they would die!

Let alone having the time to protect others, the Four Heavenly Beasts would have to worry about protecting themselves against this many numbers. In such a situation, no one would blame them if they escaped due to having trolls for teammates…

Swish!

As such, the shaken members desperately swung their weapons in the werewolves' direction. Their attacks weren't strong enough to take down lives with each slash. However, they still had the ability to occupy the enemies' attention.

In a sense, pushing back the enemy's frontlines was a much better strategy than killing everything. It was a bit harsh to say, but Leo had brought them with that intention… To have them act as foot soldiers!

A blend of quality and quantity could only be faced with the same combination. Leo was only trying to use one stone to crush dozens of birds at the same time. However, using his fellow classmates as cannon fodder didn't cross his mind!

Although they appeared clumsy at first due to the unexpected situation, these people could still be considered one of the Heavenly Strength Society's elite groups! Their time on the field may have held them back, but the strength of Martial Artists who rose during the Era of a protagonist couldn't be underestimated!

'This is only the beginning…'

As the Heavenly Furnace's graduates restored their composure one after the other, a scarlet gleam was rising at the center of the battlefield…
