Howl!

A guttural cry escaped from the massive wolf as a long spear lunged deep into its chest. Blood splashed out like a broken dam. It grimaced in pain and retreated a couple of meters with fear evident on its face.

"How…is…this…" The wolf muttered while struggling to maintain its standing.

The ordinary humans that were weaker than them had turned into powerful experts. All the advantages of a Grade-3 beast were useless against them.

Most especially, their innate advantage and sturdy hide were useless. Previously, their massive body was a huge advantage for them, but now, it made them a live target.

Howl!

The bull cried in agony as one of the soldiers' swords cut through its chest. Its big brown eyes turned fiery red, madness appearing on its face.
