“Charge!” Mo Fan yelled, his eyes emitting a sharp silver flicker.

Silver Star Orbits circled Mo Fan and transformed into wisps of strong forces, crashing into the Hillmen standing in a line ahead.

The Hillmen spat out mouthfuls of blood. They went flying to the sides as if a heavy truck had just rammed into them.

Mo Fan had cleared a path for the group by knocking the Hillmen that were blocking it away with Telekinesis. The others quickly sprinted up the thick roots before the Hillmen caught up from behind!

The Bronze-Fang Hillman roared. It had purposely ordered its underlings to gather behind the humans to prevent them from running away. It never thought the humans would be charging in its direction instead!

The Bronze-Fang Hillman kept letting out cries while swinging its arms around like a commander.

Mo Fan recklessly charged forward along the giant sloping roots while knocking the Hillmen blocking the path flying. Some flew into the air while others fell off from the edges of the roots. Unfortunately, Mo Fan’s mental strength was still too weak. If it was in the fifth stage, he could instantly kill the creatures with his Telekinesis!

To ensure that the wisps of forces were strong enough to knock the Hillmen flying, Mo Fan could divide the force into only seven wisps at a time. However, as more Hillmen began to show up from different directions, Mo Fan was struggling to hold them back by himself!

“Old Wolf, clear a path for me!” Mo Fan did not hesitate further. He immediately Summoned the Flying Creek Snow Wolf!

“Awoooo~!!!”

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf leapt out from the Summoned Beast Plane and dashed two hundred meters ahead so quickly that he only left a faint afterimage behind. In comparison, the Hillmen seemed to be in slow-motion or perfectly still. When the wolf’s afterimage disappeared, a huge mist of blood sprayed in the air from the wounds inflicted on the Hillmen by the wolf’s claws. The Hillmen slowly fell to the ground and lay still.

The difference between the Commander-level and the Warrior-level was just too huge. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was howling excitedly, as it had been a while since he had last fought a good battle!

However, the tribe of Hillmen was not just mere decorations. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was soon surrounded by over a hundred Hillmen before he was done being a show-off. The Hillmen knew the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was strong enough to kill them instantly, so they split into groups and took turns attacking the Flying Creek Snow Wolf!

For some reason, since the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was surrounded by the Hillmen, he kept missing his attacks, even though he was aiming right at them…

The Hillmen were swinging their arms and legs around and doing strange movements, like a bunch of savages dancing around a fire. The sight soon dazzled the Flying Creek Snow Wolf!

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf had not killed a single Hillman after a while. It significantly slowed down the pace of the group moving forward. Zhao Manyan felt great pressure when he heard the cries of the Hillmen behind approaching them.

“You’re such a disappointment!” Mo Fan cursed at the Flying Creek Snow Wolf.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf felt wronged. He could not understand why either; he was clearly faster and stronger than the Hillmen. He could easily kill a few of them just by swinging his claws around randomly since there were so many of them around him. However, he just kept missing. The creatures were surprisingly quick at dodging!

“Thunderbolt!” Mo Fan pointed his finger into the sky and summoned a dark lightning strike!

The Thunderbolt descended rapidly in a destructive manner, aiming right at the Hillmen that were behaving strangely.

The Lightning Strike landed on the roots and left a huge hole. The Hillmen had managed to dodge the lightning strike, as if they had anticipated it beforehand.

Mo Fan was stunned when he saw his lightning miss the Hillmen…

He was a strong Lightning Mage that had gone through countless battles. How could his attacks possibly miss these Hillmen when they were not even that quick?

Mo Fan was extremely quick at XCasting his spells. Several Star Patterns flickered continuously under his feet as more lightning strikes began to appear from the sky. They either forked into lightning arcs, fell right down, or formed a web of lightning on the ground…

However, for some reason, the Hillmen still managed to dodge most of the attacks with strange movements. The number of Hillmen that died was a lot lower than Mo Fan had imagined!

Mo Fan was dumbfounded!

What the hell was going on? They had only killed a few dozen of Hillmen after so long, but a few hundred of them were already coming up from behind. They would soon be stuck here!

“The oddity effect!” Lingling exclaimed with a frown when she saw Mo Fan and the Flying Creek Snow Wolf were being played like a fiddle.

“The what now?” the ignorant Mo Fan said.

“In the ocean, when the larger predators are attacking a school of fish, the fish will suddenly split up and swim in an orderly manner, allowing them to dodge the attacks of the predators! It’s called the oddity effect. These Hillmen are used to working together. They are similar to us humans in some ways. Didn’t you notice? You think that you can just easily pick a target, but you end up missing the attack,” Lingling said.

Mo Fan held his breath and fell into deep thought.

“F**k me, hurry up and clear the path. I can’t hold on for any longer!” Zhao Manyan yelled.

“It’s like an illusion. These Hillmen all look the same, they will move according to others’ movement, but from your perspective, it feels like some of them are slower than the others, tricking you into thinking that you can easily land your attacks on them. However, the Hillmen were actually moving very quickly. Their strange random movements are just to let you misjudge their speed and the directions they are moving!” Lingling said in a professional manner.

Lan Luo and Liu Xiaojia were utterly surprised. Why would a little girl know something so complicated?

“What should I do, then?” Mo Fan asked immediately.

“If your Fire Element is available, you can easily abuse the wide coverage of your Fire Magic to defeat them. After all, the Lightning Element is better at targeting single entities… use the Summoning Gate to disrupt their tempo!” Lingling said.

“Got it! Old Zhao, hang in there!” Mo Fan nodded.

Zhao Manyan’s face darkened. He was barely connecting his defensive spells. There were not many pieces of defensive Equipment left either!

“Summoning Gate: Beast Tide!”

Luckily, the reliable Zhao Manyan managed to buy enough time for Mo Fan to construct the Star Constellation.

The Star Constellation of the Summoning Element needed the most time to build of the Advanced Spells of the Elements. It was very easy to interrupt the Channeling of the spell, and Mo Fan was still not too familiar with it too. Zhao Manyan almost reached his limit while Mo Fan was Channeling the spell. There were hundreds of Hillmen hanging on his Light Barrier. His defense would have collapsed long ago if it weren’t for the buffs from the Totem Seal of the wooden clapper!

The Summoning Gate sprang open. A bunch of huge muscular white wolves charged out of it, howling loudly. These wolves were very aggressive. They immediately lunged at the tiny Hillmen without waiting for Mo Fan’s instructions!

It was not easy to control the Beast Tide, since it was basically a large-scale spell that did not distinguish between friendlies and hostiles. As more wolves came out of the Summoning Gate, these aggressive white wolves immediately started a massive battle with the Hillmen!

“Awooo!”

While the white wolves were messily engaging the Hillmen, the Flying Creek Snow Wolf at the front suddenly let out a deafening howl. The white wolves immediately shuddered and froze in place.

The white wolves stopped attacking and stood in formations like soldiers before charging forward with the Flying Creek Snow Wolf.

Each wolf was a lot stronger than a Hillman, and due to their huge size, they were like a squad of white tanks advancing when they were charged forward in formation. It destroyed the formation of the Hillmen!

The wolves immediately cleared the path ahead. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf led the rest of the wolves and charged four hundred meters ahead. They simply ignored the Hillmen that were dancing around like clowns and continued making their way to the trunk!

“Well done!” Mo Fan exclaimed. He finally recalled that these white wolves were the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s underlings in the Summoned Beast Plane. The tide of beasts was very disciplined with the Flying Creek Snow Wolf leading them!

A group of disciplined criminals was the deadliest. Mo Fan was overjoyed when he saw the Hillmen being crushed by the wolves.

“Hurry up, the Beast Tide won’t last for long!” Mo Fan said.

Zhao Manyan felt like he was about to collapse. When he heard that they could finally leave, he dragged Liu Xiaojia and Guan Xixi and fled as quickly as possible. Lan Luo cast Wind Track in time to speed everyone up, too.

“Gravity Space!” Mo Fan set up a rhomboid behind the group when he saw the Hillmen catching up. The Hillmen within it slowed down significantly, as if huge metal balls were tied to their legs.

The Bronze-Fang Hillman realized its underlings were having trouble stopping them. It cried out furiously and jumped down from the higher ground. It had decided to engage the humans himself!

The Bronze-Fang Hillman had around a hundred Hillmen who were almost three-meters-tall with it. They seemed to be the elites among the Hillmen. They cried imposingly as they charged down at the wolves!

“Awooo!” The Flying Creek Snow Wolf had no intention to back away. He uttered a furious howl and led the wolves to engage the Hillmen!

The area below the Giant Purple Sacred Linden belonged to the wolves!
