Chapter 27: Skyrocketed Strength
In this evolution, Alex gained two new talent skills.
[Weakness Penetration]: A certain chance to see through the weaknesses of any creature. The probability is related to the host's level, currently at a 22% chance of identifying weaknesses.
[Levitation]: A flying skill, with speed dependent on the host's strength.
Both skills are incredibly useful.
The [Weakness Penetration] needs no explanation; being able to see through weaknesses is virtually a bug skill. The only downside is the one-in-five chance of activation.
[Levitation] addresses Alex's inability to engage in aerial combat, a limitation that would have assured Jones's escape had Alex possessed this talent earlier.
"Ding, please select the path for evolution."
[Option 1]: Evolve to the Azure Snow Wolf King, possessing absolute leadership and deterrence over the wolf race.
[Option 2]: Evolve to the War Snow Wolf King, significantly enhancing strength and unparalleled prowess.
[Option 3]: Evolve to the Sacred Snow Wolf King, possessing absolute dominion and strength.
Without any hesitation, Alex chose to become the Sacred Snow Wolf King.
Why limit oneself when you can have both? He wants it all.
Alex noticed his already pure white fur took on a sacred aura, resembling angelic feathers, appearing holy and inviolable.
But most importantly, his skyrocketed strength.
A quarter-hour later, Alex landed in the territory of a Violent Bull.
In the Forgotten Forest, any force that had established itself almost certainly possessed lord-level strength, and the Violent Bull was no exception.
"Where is your lord-level? Call him out!"
Alex landed on a large rock, scanning the Violent Bulls that eyed him menacingly, showing no interest in these beasts below the leader level.
Even defeating them wouldn't yield much experience.
Only a lord-level was barely worth his effort.
How arrogant!
The Violent Bulls were dubbed "violent" not only for their strength but also for their volatile tempers.
Violent Bull (Level 7)
Description: Elite class, overpowering most beasts of the same level in terms of strength. Skills: Hoof Stomp, Horn Lock.
This group of Violent Bulls were metal attribute beasts.
"[Hoof Stomp]!"
An elite Violent Bull descended from the sky, its hoof aimed at Alex's head, confident that even a leader-level wouldn't dare to take this attack head-on.
However, Alex, lifting a wolf's paw, flicked it casually in the eyes of all the incredulous Violent Bulls.
Boom!
The charging Violent Bull elite was sent flying into the distance, creating a sizable crater upon landing.
After the initial shock, what followed was intense rage.
Someone dared to attack them in their stronghold; wasn't this too arrogant?
"[Horn Lock]!"
Several Violent Bulls positioned themselves at different angles, their horns suddenly extending, locking down all of Alex's movement space.
Neither his limbs nor his head could move, and the horns, being the hardest part of a Violent Bull, were indestructible by the enemy. Anyone caught in this technique could only wait for death.
"This is your best move?"
"If you have nothing else, then prepare to die."
A terrifying pressure erupted from Alex.
All the Violent Bulls felt it, a pressure far surpassing their lord, belonging only to a true king-level beast!
The Violent Bulls, previously dismissive, now truly recognized their insignificance, instinctively feeling the urge to kneel in submission.
But Alex didn't give them the chance.
With a swipe of his paw, not just the Violent Bulls but even their horns were shattered, followed by a series of system notifications.
"Who dares disturb my rest? Do you wish to die?"
A bull the size of a small house emerged from a distant cave. As it looked towards Alex, its eyes shifted from brutality to wariness.
However, when it saw all the Violent Bulls dead by Alex's hand, its eyes instantly reddened.
Thousands of Violent Bulls, not one left alive.
A moment ago, it was a mighty lord-level leader; now, it was a commander without an army.
Staring at the corpses, the leader of the Violent Bulls was completely enraged.
"You damn intruder, die, die!"
Golden slashes emitted from his horns, covering the sky with golden blades all aiming for Alex.
"Bring it on!"
Alex exclaimed excitedly.
"[Multi-Wind Blade]!"
The wind blades clashed with the golden blades in the air, creating a metallic symphony.
The gold attribute's slashes, which should have overpowered the wind blades, were unexpectedly suppressed by Alex instead.
"Ding! Successfully identified the Violent Bull's weakness."
"Weakness: Head."
Isn't a bull's head supposed to be the strongest part?
Alex was puzzled, but to verify the accuracy, all he needed was to give it a try.
"[Shadow Wind Whip]!"
The pressure from the wind blades gave Alex the upper hand, and the wind whip directly disrupted the balance, smashing down the golden blades and further lashing towards the Violent Bull's head.
"This can't be good!"
The Violent Bull attempted to dodge.
It was shocked, utterly unaware of how Alex could have known its weakness.
Years ago, due to its headstrong nature, it had cracked its skull open, rendering it unable to use its most prized skills.
But there was no escape.
The whip moved as fast as lightning, striking the Violent Bull's head repeatedly, causing its already fragile skull to crack.
Crack!
Boom!
The lord-level Violent Bull's head was brutally smashed open by Alex's whip.
"Ding, by killing a lord-level Violent Bull, you've earned 130,000 experience points."
"Ding, you've obtained 2,300 fire essence."
It was only at this moment that Alex fully realized how terrifying the skill [Weakness Penetration] could be.
Without identifying the opponent's weakness, Alex would have targeted the Violent Bull's softer body, likely failing to deliver a fatal blow.
"This skill, if well-utilized, gives me a fighting chance even against those stronger than myself."
"Let's find a few more lord-levels to practice on."
Effortlessly slaying a lord-level had Alex addicted to this feeling.
Danger.
Suddenly, an indescribable sense of being watched crept into Alex's mind.
It was as if someone was observing him from the shadows, making him uncomfortable.
His gaze firmly fixed on the heavens above, intuition told him the entity lurking in the dark was extremely dangerous.
"Could it be a king-level beast spying on me?"
And not just a regular king-level.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have exerted such immense pressure on him.
Frowning, Alex headed towards the White Wolf Tribe.
It's time to leave this place...
