Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 139 The Still Iron and the Werewolf Gang's Slaughter of Underground Creatures

The mixed-race army, which had completely captured the underground capital of Metz Castle, was celebrating jubilantly and had planted the flag representing the capital of Rye on the city walls.

But suddenly, a series of wolf howls, each louder than the last, appeared in their ears and above their heads.

The lizardman general, who called himself a dragon-born reptile, and his lizardman guards immediately looked around warily. There were some wolves in the underworld, but they were just ordinary, weak wild animals.

Beyond the main city of the underworld, the wilderness is filled with powerful and terrifying deformed monsters. Some of these monsters are experimental subjects abandoned by the Drow Matrons, while others seem to have existed for a very, very long time.

As the official army of Black City, they were not afraid of mere wild wolves.

But the lizardman general was still very uneasy. Why could he hear wolf howls even though there were no wolves here?

The next moment, when the lizardman general and his guards turned around, they were horrified to find that the flagpoles of the two flags representing the main city of Rye, which had been planted on the inner wall of Metz Castle, had been broken at some point.

The lizardman general and his guards stared wide-eyed, filled with confusion and fear.

When did the flag break?

Why was it that none of them, out of so many people, noticed that their military flag had been broken?

In battle, the military flag is the lifeblood of the army. In many battles, the situation was initially very favorable, but the army was defeated because its flag was captured.

The lizardman general was furious. Could it be that this human castle still had any resistance?

Those human soldiers have all been slaughtered by them, haven't they?

Aren't these humans just like the cave dwellers of the underground world—nothing more than slaves?!

The next moment, a lizardman was blasted into the air, his body cut in two, and his steel armor was also cut apart.

The lizardman general roared, "Stay alert! Locate the enemy! The enemy is definitely nearby! Come out here!"

"Stop pretending!"

The lizardmen immediately raised their shields and scimitars, ready to search for the enemy.

The towering minotaur warrior, who was currently ravaging the Mace family's human soldiers, stood up, looking for potential enemies so he could charge over and crush them.

The shifty-eyed goblins were also looking around, searching for enemies.

But the next moment, more lizardmen were blasted into the air. Their steel shields were cut in half, their proud metal plate armor was cut in half, and even their reptilian bodies covered in metal scales were cut in half.

One, two, three, five lizardmen soldiers were blasted into the air.

But it wasn't over yet. The lizardman general saw afterimages looming over his army on the city walls. Wherever these afterimages went, his elite lizardman troops were inevitably thrown into chaos. Steel shields, steel scimitars, and steel plate armor were all easily sliced ​​apart by the afterimages.

The lizardman general's pupils suddenly contracted.

It was only then that he realized he had made a serious mistake.

The enemy was never playing tricks or hiding; it was simply that their own eyes couldn't keep up with the enemy's speed, and they couldn't see the enemy's location.

The fifty-odd goblins screamed in terror. "Enemies! Terrible enemies! Where are they? They're too fast, General! Our eyes can't keep up with them! How...how can we fight back..."

The goblin leader who was speaking had cold sweat trickling down his forehead, because behind him stood a colossal creature, larger than any goblin, whose shadow loomed over him in the sunlight.

"Danger..." The goblin leader drew his short sword and turned to attack the massive creature behind him. "Don't underestimate us. We are the official forces of the Drow Matron. All our weapons are [Steel Armaments] forged in the Great Forge of the capital city."

"Even the most dangerous monsters in the caves and wilderness can be killed by this [Steel Armor] weapon!"

But the next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank, because when he turned around and swung his short sword at the claws of the huge half-human, half-wolf monster behind him, the monster didn't dodge at all. Then his short sword struck the claws of the super werewolf messenger, and the entire steel sword shattered into dozens of pieces with a loud 'clang'.

Just like a broken mirror.

This is the effect of the Triumph Claw potion.

Super werewolves enhanced with the Triumph Claw potion have claws that are the best weapon counter.

This was originally a spell designed by Su Nan to target the energy shells within the sorcerer groups, but who knew it would be used to counter the dungeon army, which possessed abundant mineral resources and advanced low-temperature forging techniques.

The super werewolf messenger looked down at its paws in confusion, trying to find some scratches on them.

Super Werewolf Xin scratched his head with his wolf claws. He couldn't understand why the opponent's weapon was so trashy, breaking at the slightest touch.

The next moment, a bloodthirsty glint appeared on the werewolf's lips as the super werewolf messenger slashed at the shield of the short goblin before him with its claws.

*Click*

A deep claw mark was immediately slashed into the special blue-silver metal shield.

The goblin leader was sent flying by the blow, crashing into the city wall and becoming paralyzed on one side, losing his ability to fight.

Even the Super Werewolf Courier has a strength of 2.5 and a series of claw-type additional skills. Even without activating Fury twice, it can crush this goblin.

Su Nan, who had been watching the battle closely, noticed that the blue-silver metal had actually blocked a wolf claw attack from the super werewolf messenger, which had been enhanced with the Triumph Claw.

The stability of this metal is indeed superior to that of ordinary steel, which suggests it may be a unique natural mineral found in the underground world.

If you can get your hands on it, it's a valuable rare resource, whether you use it for trading, equipping your army, or making potions!

The lizardman general, witnessing this scene, was filled with terror.

He swallowed hard as he looked at the shield, which was said to be absolutely indestructible except by the Drow matriarchs, arcane mages, and the Drow warriors who were the matriarchs' guards.

His eyes were practically popping out.

That monster... that werewolf, actually destroyed the still iron.

Could it be that there are also superior races on the surface world?

Could it be that there are beings similar to the Drow Matron and the Arcane Mage in the surface world?

The lizardman general saw it; at that moment, his army was attacked simultaneously by dozens of monsters like the ones they had just encountered. The steel-armored weapons that his army was so proud of shattered at the slightest touch against those werewolves, more fragile than glass.

The lizardman general attempted to crush an aether stone, but he discovered that the monsters' claws were natural weapons, rendering the aether magic released by the aether stone ineffective.

The lizardmen soldiers were slaughtered, and the minotaur warriors tried to fight back with their physical strength, but were easily defeated and suppressed by a much larger monster that was glowing blue all over.

The lizardman general trembled as he looked at the magical energy emanating from Wolf's body. He took a half step back, recognizing it as the arcane energy that only appeared when the Drow Matron cast spells.

"Arcane...Arcanist..."

"Could it be that the true rulers of this world are the hidden arcane masters?! That's why these surface humans are so weak, yet they manage to occupy such a large and valuable area..."
