Chapter 449

Caroline walked over to the side of the wolf with a broken tail and bloodied dark purple fur. The wolf tried to move, but her trembling limbs indicated that she was already severely injured from the strike that cut off a large chunk of her tail and the skin and flesh on her back.

"Just so you don't die." Caroline shook her head and cast a Flame of Vitality on this lycan who a few minutes ago was still trying to wound and capture her, because she had a rough idea on how much damage her strike did to her - right now, the wind Xuanli from her last strike had already gone into this lycan's body and started wounding her from inside. If left untreated she could die: "Tell your people to back off - this is a residential area, there are civilians nearby. Whatever is going on between your kin and the other group, these civilians have nothing to do with it."

The wolf with dark purple fur coughed and let out a cynical laughter: "What makes you think you are in a position to say that? These losers enjoyed their peaceful lives living under our shelter, away from crimes, and with generous monthly packages as long as they're cooperative when we collect a few pints from them each week. And now our enemies are at the gate, do you think they know not what they've signed up for?"

Just when Caroline was about to say something in return, a loud crack exploded in the sky from the clash between a lycan with several locks of golden hairs amongst his dark brown fur and a man wearing a metal mask and a pair of metal gloves and had tattoos all over his exposed skin, escaped energy shot out from the center of the clash like bolts of pale grey and dark blue balls of lightning and energy shards, a few of which struck the apartment complex building from which Thomas and Detective Kuhn were trying to escort the people out. The upper layers of the building cracked and tilted from the damage, and in just a few seconds, the building started falling down, while Thomas, Detective Kuhn and some injured civilians were still not far enough away from the main building.

Caroline's body became shrouded in a thick and turbulent wall of wind as she leapt towards the collapsing building. Her shield became translucent light green when she approached the falling chunk of the building in mid air, and when she thrust her shield at the falling chunk, a giant light green energy shield appeared in front of her. And just like a real shield, the light green energy shield collided with the falling chunk of the building, and with Caroline's roaring thrust, the chunk was pushed to the side, away from the civilians and Thomas and Detective Kuhn below.

"Boom!" the large chunk of the building fell onto the broken but empty street. Splinters and debris flew everywhere and some civilians that were close were hit by them, but they were all right compared to what could have happened.

This move caught the eyes of both the lycan with locks of golden hairs on his fur and the tattooed man wearing metal mask and gloves. But she had no time to think about this at all - she fell to the ground after the forceful push and left a small crater on the street below.

The escaping civilians screamed and tried to backway from the place on which Caroline fell. The tattooed man raised his hands in the air, and a shadowy cloud made of pale grey energy appeared behind him. Before the lycan with whom he just faced off could do anything, seven grey energy vortex appeared in the pale grey cloud behind him, which turned into actual portals in just a brief moment.

"Looks like your time is today!" the tattooed man wearing a metal mask and metal gloves laughed out loud with contempt and gloat: "I've managed to conjure 7 full portals, and out will come the full seven projections of our god! Let's see if your claws and fangs can chew through them!"

The lycan with golden hairs on his body howled to the sky, and something vast, heavy and even majestic but yet invisible, shapeless and formless seemed to have descended upon the battlefield. The day was already getting dark and the moon was visible in the sky, with the effects of this howl, the color of the moon became dark red-violet. The next moment, Caroline could see that the dark red-violet moon had started to take effect on the lycans - the wolf with dark purple fur with a broken tail and a deep cut on her back, the wolf with silvery white fur whose lower was almost torn from her head and was unconscious from enduring a direct full force kick by Caroline all howled along with their leader, and the wounds on their body disappeared in almost an instant, and they rose again with their eyes glowing in dark purple and silvery white light, and dark red-violet mist coming out of their noses and mouth with every breath they took.

"Fuck." Caroline cursed and shouted at the shaky building next to her: "How many remaining?! Thomas? Detective?"

"We have a mother and two children trapped under a fallen pillar! We'll need some time!" Thomas yelled as loud as he could in response.

Caroline took out her flask and took a quick but deep gulp, emptying two thirds of the entire flask. Bright flame and a wall of wind appeared around her once again, as she charged at the two wolves whose injuries somehow fully recovered under the influence of the moon.
