Chapter 68 The Blue Wolf
[Edward’s P.0.V.]
When Rose’s scream reached my ears, I couldn’t believe what my eyes were seeing.
I saw, thirty, forty, or more monsters coming at us from all directions. I had no idea how they had appeared. It was as if they had come out of the ground.
I could only call them monsters because though they looked like werewolves, there was something off about them. I had never encountered any like them before.
I didn’t think the monsters were friendly – in human form or wolf form – with their dead gray eyes staring at us and their throats bulging as if they were filled with phlegm. Most importantly, their faces and bodies were stained with blood. Even their skin looked rotten and twisted. Something that looked like yellow dirt fell off their faces.
I saw Dylan rush toward us as fast as he could – he had turned into his wolf, Ward. “Protect Luna!”
I yelled at him before I told Rose to hide behind me. Then, I turned into Champion. As soon as my wolf came out, it mercilessly tore apart the two monsters that were coming at us. Their deaths released a thick, putrid stench that almost made me vomit. We surrounded Rose with our backs. I had to say, although these monsters looked slow and attacked very straightforwardly, they were very agile. Soon, the stench of liquid and flying torn flesh filled the air.
But then, Ward somehow became separated from us and ended up surrounded by a small circle of monsters. I knew he wanted to attract their attention to protect Rose and me. Champion, on the other hand, stood firmly by Rose, its face and body covered in sticky liquid.
I checked up on Rose. I didn’t want her to transform and use her power, not under any circumstances unless it was a life-threatening situation. Fortunately, she was not hurt as she clung to Champion’s back.
However, something even more amazing happened. The monsters whose limbs had been torn off and bodies severely injured did not fall off and die. Instead, they simply stood back up. And their numbers continued to increase. It was starting to look like there were already hundreds of them, which was not a good sign at all.
“Bite their heads off or break their necks!”
I suddenly heard a man’s voice and out of the corner of my eye, I saw someone running towards us, transforming as he ran. Before I could identify who he was, a strange wolf appeared in front of me. Although it was a little smaller than me, it still looked amazing. Its fur was the color of rare Klein blue. Without a signal, he just went into battle. I swore I didn’t know him. I’d never seen a wolf like him in my pack, but I did what he said. I started ripping the throats of every d*mn monster that came at me. Some were in human form, still wearing clothes even though they were ragged.
Sure enough, the monsters with broken necks or missing heads never stood up again But there were still so many of them. After ripping off another monster’s head, I let out a huge roar in Ward’s direction.
Ward broke out of his encirclement and started running. Some of the monsters chased after him as he took them farther away. Then he swerved and ran even faster toward the car, changing into human form just in time to jump in and drive it towards us.
The Klein blue wolf saw it too. He gave me a look after he had killed a wolf-shaped monster and I understood what he meant. I immediately pulled Rose onto my back. Thankfully, she reacted quickly as well as she held onto my fur as tightly as she could.
I found an opening in the monster’s encirclement around us and ran in the direction of the car. Sure enough, the monsters started to chase after me at the same speed.
I ran as fast as I could and saw the Klein blue wolf covering my back. I most definitely had to find out who he was. Although his sudden appearance made me a little confused, he helped us a lot.
Dylan’s car arrived in front of me and the passenger door was already opened. With a flick of my tail, I knocked over a few monsters before quickly stuffing Rose into the passenger seat.
“Edward!!”
I heard Rose anxiously call out my name because I quickly rushed into the melee again.
No matter who the Klein blue wolf was, I couldn’t leave him behind, just like he had done for me and Rose.
Just as I was about to rush to the Klein blue wolf’s side, I saw a middle-aged monster with a half-ruined face pounce on him. Thankfully, the monster was in human form and wasn’t much of a threat for a huge werewolf as the Klein blue wolf swung his claws into the man’s shoulder and lifted him into the air.
Just as I was about to clear the other two obstacles lunging at him, I heard Rose scream.
“No!!”
I immediately felt a very powerful force in front of me and saw two objects fly high into the air before falling heavily onto the ground.
It all happened in an instant. When I came back to my senses, I saw that the humanoid monster was struggling to get up while the Klein blue wolf was lying a few meters away, moaning in pain. The wolf immediately turned back into his human form.
God, the Klein blue wolf was Clyde.
At that moment, I didn’t dare or want to think about who had attacked him.
