Chapter 148 - Claws And Horns (1)
The creatures took their sweet time to show up, but when they did, it was to show Ashton that they meant business. These black horned creatures were much bigger than Ashton had expected.
In fact, after taking a good look at their ginormous size, Ashton was wondering if these creatures were actually hiding in the foliage of trees or not. Their bodies were covered in translucent blue fur except the horn protruding from the middle of their foreheads.
"It's the first time I've seen such beasts." Ashton mumbled to himself and quickly took out the twin blades from the inventory, "Which means I can get new skills."
He quickly used [Detection] to know more about their weakness, only to realise these creatures were a tad bit too weak as they were only at level 10.
Still, he knew he was going to have a tough time there considering that these creatures only had four stats, agility, damage, armour and their HP.

"This is new..." Ashton thought to himself as the wolves slowly surrounded him, "The system is more or less as clueless as I am."
Before Ashton could finish speaking his mind, yet another notification popped up in front of him. But it was a notification he had never seen before.
__
You have received a new mission!
[Introduction]: It seems like a few direwolves have mutated yet again. Uncertainty is the enemy of progression and thus you are being given the task to ease this uncertainty behind the mystery of these Horned Wraith Wolves.
[Objective]: Find out more about the secret mutation of direwolves.
[Task]: Hunt down 40 Horned Wraith Wolves and submit their horns and claws as samples for analysis.
[Progress]: 0/40 Horned Wraith Wolves killed.
[Reward]: 10 stats points, 500 HP increase, 200 Mana increase.
[Mission Commissioned by]: Administrator
[Priority Level]: 2 (The host cannot ignore the mission, but can delay it for 24 hours)
__
'How come you know their weaknesses and immunities if you don't know shit about them?' Ashton scoffed, 'If you want me to kill them, just say so. No need to sound all important or some shit.'
__
The Administrator has changed the rewards for the above quest.
[Reward]: 5 stats points, 250 HP increase, 100 Mana increase.
Special Note from Administrator: Do you have any idea how many people have already faced these creatures and died? All the information you are seeing is courtesy of those fallen people.
If you don't want to join them, then I recommend you focus on completing the task before I change the rewards to something entirely useless.

"What the hell, you stingy bastard!"
Ashton wanted to know more about whatever this mission thingy was, but it seemed that the wraith wolves had different plans. They simultaneously lunged at Ashton while he was still looking at the notification in front.
Ashton was already surrounded, there was no place for him to run to. But it wasn't like he was trying to run away in the first place. Especially after receiving the quest by Lucifer.
He leapt over them using one of the wolf's heads to further push him above. A moment later, he activated [Rock Pound], the low levelled skill he had earned after defeating the Gorillan.
Ashton did not have many expectations from the skill and had used it since it was the only AOE (area of effect) skill he had. Also, this was the perfect chance for him to see if the skill was even a bit useful or not.
The next moment, the ground in between split apart and huge chunks of borders were spat out, hitting the wolves right in their heads. The damage wasn't massive, but it was enough to stagger them long enough for Ashton to put the next phase of his plan into action.
[Skill: Stride has been activated.]
[Skill: Wolf's Mark has been activated.]
[Armour skill: Lure has been activated.]
Just like that Ashton got an agility boost of 70% while his damage got increased by 50%. The tables had turned on the werewolves. Instead of Ashton, it was them who longer could escape from his grasp.
The next moment Ashton slashed all of them one after another until his blades were drenched in the slimy white blood of the wraith wolves. But something was a bit weird. He was pretty sure he had killed the wolves and yet neither the [wolf's mark] skill was deactivating nor did he receive any exp for killing the wolves.
__
A hidden condition has been revealed!
Physical immunity: A Wraith Wolf will not receive any physical damage when 4 or more wraith wolves are targeting the same target.
__
"YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" Ashton screamed at the top of his lungs before turning around.
What he saw next was both mindboggling and extremely frustrating. All of his strikes had been killer strikes, just like he had thought... but his strikes didn't do shit to them as their wounds healed up by themselves.
Since Ashton didn't know any 'spells' and only had 'skills', all of his attacks were physical in nature. As a result, even though his attacks had 'killed' the wolves, due to their immunity to physical damage, they were unharmed.
"On a positive note, at least now I know how the hell these weak bastards were able to kill so many soldiers." Ashton shook his head in disappointment.
While the creatures were still recovering, Ashton once again reviewed the information he had about them. That's when he realised one thing... he could kill the wolves. He simply needed to do one thing more before slashing the creatures left and right.
