Chapter 9: The Beast of Madness

  "Oh dear heavens! The gods above!"

  The great magician took Lin Feng out of the door and immediately saw Nina running towards him with a terrified face. Behind her, there was a giant wolf about two meters tall, squatting next to the barbecue rabbit meat rack.

  "Mother, don't worry, my teacher will protect you."

  Lin Feng comforted his frightened mother while looking at the cyan giant wolf and asked the Great Magician, "Teacher, what is that thing?"

  "That's a level 6 Wind-type magical beast, Wolf Crazy! How did a magical beast appear in this small forest?!"

  The great magician replied to Lin Feng with one sentence, but the next sentence was obviously asked to Nina.

  "Honorable great magician, I...I don't know why, but at that time I was sitting next to the barbecue waiting for my son to come out, and suddenly I felt a flash in front of my eyes, and this huge wolf suddenly appeared beside me."

  Nina was still visibly shaken, her voice laced with a hint of fear, and she hadn't even noticed that Lin Feng's way of addressing the Great Mage had changed to "Teacher".

  "Alright, Lin Feng little guy, you take your mother inside to rest first, this mad wolf will be handled by me."

  The great magician said as he took out his own magic wand, shouting at the crazy wolf squatting on the ground: "Leave me quickly, I don't want to kill you yet."

  He could see that the mad wolf seemed to have no malice, as it crouched beside the barbecue rack and did not attack Nina. Even when Lin Feng brought her out, it only let out two low growls. Otherwise, Nina, an ordinary person, would have been buried under the claws of the mad wolf long ago.

  The mad wolf seemed to understand the great wizard's words and felt the great wizard gathering terrifying energy, involuntarily retreating two steps and letting out a low growl.

  But for some reason, the wolf did not leave this place and instead paced back and forth on the spot, its howls revealing that it seemed somewhat anxious.

  "Get out of here quickly, otherwise I will kill you."

  The great magician had already aimed his magic wand at the mad wolf, and as soon as the fiery red gemstone on the tip of the wand flashed, a small fireball flew towards the mad wolf.

  The mad wolf saw the fireball flying in and didn't resist, but instead dodged to the side and stood still, bowing his body, ready to attack the great magician at any time.

  The fireball missed the mad wolf and landed on the grass, instantly igniting some of the weeds on the ground. However, under the control of the great magician, the flames were quickly extinguished.

  Lin Feng comforted Nina, who was frightened, while looking at the scene. The fireball that the great magician had just shot out was obviously a low-level magic, and judging from the dull color of the fireball, it didn't have much attacking power either. At this moment, he understood that the great magician only wanted to scare the Crazy Wolf away. He furrowed his brow and couldn't help but shout at the great magician: "Teacher, why don't you just kill it?"

  "Little guy, you don't understand. Although this sixth-level magical beast doesn't pose any threat to me, I still can't kill it. Otherwise, I would offend another magician."

  The great magician stared intently at the Crazy Wolf's movements while explaining to Lin Feng with his back turned: "I can sense that there is another magician's soul mark on this magical beast, I believe it won't take long for that magician to come and retrieve his beast. We magicians are very united because of our small numbers, and we will not offend each other unless absolutely necessary."

  "Alright, I believe neither I nor my mother will be in any danger."

  Just as the two had a brief conversation, the wolf's low growl finally turned into an irritable howl, its body arched again, its mouth opened wide, and immediately shot out a huge gust of wind from its mouth.

  The wind blade moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it flew to the side of the great magician. However, the great magician was not flustered, and with his mouth chanting incantations, just as the wind blade was about to hit him, a faintly visible flame suddenly floated out from his body. The wind blade struck the flame, making a "poof" sound, and instantly dissipated.

  The great magician, apparently didn't receive even a slight injury.

  "You're really asking for it, daring to attack me! If you don't leave my place right now, I'll really kill you!"

  The great magician cursed again, and once more aimed the magic wand at the mad wolf. As the great magician continued to chant the spell, the fiery red gemstone on the tip of the wand grew brighter, and the surroundings also became increasingly scorching as the gemstone lit up.

  Roar——roar——

  A scorching energy was rising, and the mad wolf let out an uneasy low growl again. However, this time it seemed to have sensed that the great magician was serious, so although it still let out a low growl, it slowly retreated several steps back.

  "Get out of here, you beast! Otherwise, we'll be having roasted wolf meat for dinner tonight!"

  Lin Feng didn't care whether the wolf could understand him or not and shouted at it.

  It was unclear whether it was Lin Feng's shout that had an effect or the pressure of the powerful magician, but the mad wolf actually retreated a few steps, looking as if it was about to flee.

  The great magician saw this, the top of the magic wand shook, and a powerful fire energy seemed to be about to burst out, and the temperature of the entire air around suddenly rose by half!

  The mad wolf saw this and finally knew it was no match, retreated a few steps again, and quickly escaped.

  The great magician slowly withdrew his magic upon seeing this, let out a relaxed breath, and turned to make a "safe" gesture towards Lin Feng and his mother in the house.

  He was just about to say something, when he suddenly felt a gust of strong wind coming from behind him. At the same time, he saw Lin Feng's eyes widen in shock, and immediately turned around, only to see the mad wolf that had escaped earlier now pouncing towards him!

  Hūn

  The mad wolf crashed into the great magician, but was repelled by a layer of flames and rolled to the ground, however the massive impact also caused the great magician to take two steps back before regaining his balance.

  "Damn it, you son of a bitch!"

  The great magician suddenly shouted and swung his staff, a huge fireball mixed with crackling sounds flew towards the mad wolf.

  This blazing fireball is called Flame Burst, not only does it have the attribute of burning, but also upon contact with an object, it will cause it to explode. It's a mid-level fire magic that can deal heavy damage to a level 6 Crazy Wolf, although it won't be fatal, it can still blast it into a heavily injured state.

  However, the mad wolf is a wind-type magical beast. Although its strength is not as good as that of a great magician, its speed is extremely fast. At the moment it landed, the great magician's flame explosion had already smashed towards it, but even so, it still dodged away in an instant. However, after it dodged, it did not dare to attack the great magician again. The great magician didn't care about that much; since the mad wolf attacked him first, he would kill it. Even the magician who owned the mad wolf couldn't blame him for that.

  Without thinking, a string of low-level magic spells was cast towards the mad wolf!

  But the mad wolf just kept dodging, not escaping or attacking the great magician, and even stopped launching long-range magic like wind blades at him.

  While the great magician was holding off the mad wolf with these small spells, he couldn't help but start chanting the incantation of a high-level magic spell. Just then, from far away, a deep voice suddenly rang out: "Respected Great Magician, please stop!"
