But just as the attack was about to reach its target, the Light Reaper Wolf intervened.
The golden shimmer around its body intensified as it activated its [Luminous Barrier] skill, forming a radiant dome of light that nullified Nix's attack on impact. The ice dissipated harmlessly, leaving the Dark Reaper Wolf completely unscathed.
"Tch." Cain clicked his tongue in annoyance as he watched the wolves' teamwork unfold. "Their coordination is on another level. Nix and Little White need to adapt quickly."
Nix dove downward, landing beside Little White, who shook off the pain and stood his ground. The wounds on his side slowly mended as his [Lunar Regeneration] skill kicked in, but the damage was done since his movements had already been hindered.
The two Reaper Wolves circled them like predators toying with their prey, their eyes gleaming with intelligence.
