Therefore, when the four ancestors finally caught up with Banning, this guy had not only killed Kenroshi Okami, but also escaped beyond the borders of the werewolf tribe.
Seeing this situation, the impatient Ancestor of Teeth, Tias, immediately questioned the Ancestor of Eyes, Ain, asking her why she did not launch an attack in advance when she was still far away.
Among the four werewolf ancestors, Ain, the Eye Ancestor, has the longest attack range. With the help of the skill "Eye of Golden Thunder", she can accurately attack targets up to five kilometers away, but she did not do so, which made her a bit like a target of public criticism.
Facing the questions and gazes of other ancestors, the Eye Ancestor Ain gave an answer.
"Because this guy has the ability to teleport, and three of them at once."
This one sentence alone silenced the other ancestors, because everyone knew the limitations of the Eye Ancestor Ain when he opened the Golden Thunder Eye. Instead of forcing an attack that could not hit the target, it would be better to reunite with everyone and then act together.
"Well... in that case, Claude, you come and cooperate with Ain. The distance of two or three hundred meters should not be a problem for you, right?" Tias failed to question, so he made another suggestion, hoping to save some face.
Claw Ancestor Klauer readily agreed, but Eye Ancestor Ain then challenged Fang Ancestor Tias: "I disagree. If we fail to attack him and scare him away, we'll never be able to recapture him... Don't forget, the Lord of Eternal Winter demands 'capture alive.'"
The ancestor of the teeth, Tias, hit a wall twice in a row and immediately became angry.
"This won't work, and that won't work either. So, tell me what to do!"
As he said this, he crossed his arms over his chest, slowed down in a huff, and followed at the end of the team.
The four werewolf ancestors who were still chasing Banning floated silently for a while until they reached the border and stopped.
They listened to Benning's shouting from a distance, each with their own thoughts in their minds, and then, the Bone Ancestor Bourne finally stood up and took charge of the situation.
·
First, due to the simultaneous testimony of Ain, the Ancestor of Eyes, and Klauer, the Ancestor of Claws, both Bone Ancestor Bourne and Fang Ancestor Tias believed that the Lord of Eternal Winter had suddenly appeared.
Without any explanation, the two ancestors understood the importance of capturing the guy named "Banning", because the consequences of offending the Lord of Eternal Winter cannot be described by the word "terrifying".
But after seeing that Banning had run out of the border, and after the previous debate, the werewolf ancestors realized that it was probably impossible to catch this young man.
Now there are only two options left for the werewolf ancestors: either forcibly leave the territory to capture Banning and then bear the "price", or grit their teeth and go back together to face the Lord of Eternal Winter.
For the ancestors of werewolves, the cost of leaving the territory is huge, basically equivalent to genocide.
No werewolf ancestor can leave the territory for more than 24 hours. If they do, they will die immediately. In addition, once they leave the territory, even for just one second, they will be forced to enter a 365-day hibernation after returning to the territory.
Such strict restrictions and costs are already harsh enough, but there is one final rule based on these, that is, whether one werewolf ancestor leaves the territory or all four werewolf ancestors leave, the final price must be borne by all members together.
The ancestor of the Teeth, Tias, once joked that if one day one of their four ancestors was captured by the enemy and taken away from the territory for more than 24 hours, the remaining three ancestors would have to be buried with him.
After hearing this, the other ancestors all looked at Tias with contempt, because this joke was really not funny at all.
Back to the point, if the four werewolf ancestors were to sleep together for 365 days, then by the time they woke up, the werewolf clan, which was good at stirring up trouble and had many enemies, would probably be gone.
Bourne, the Bone Ancestor who was in charge of the situation, pointed this out succinctly, and then gained the approval of the other ancestors.
The werewolf ancestors all believed that instead of bearing such a huge price and taking such exaggerated risks, it would be better to join hands to fight against the Lord of Eternal Winter.
Even though they had no chance of winning, the Lord of Eternal Winter did not dare to act rashly.
After all, they are the ancestors of werewolves. This place is not only the rear base of the human alliance, but also the territory of the werewolf clan. If they can delay a little, it will be dark in a few hours.
The Lord of Eternal Winter, who is known for his resourcefulness, would most likely not engage in such a thankless and unprofitable business.
In addition, choosing to fight against the Lord of Eternal Winter does not mean that the werewolf ancestors will let Banning go.
Giving up the mission of "capturing Banning alive" is one thing, but how to deal with Banning is another.
The werewolf ancestors would not let this culprit, who had created war in the werewolf territory, destroyed the werewolf royal ancestral hall and killed the son of the wolf king, leave without a price.

8.241 - The Ancestral Wolf's Curse of Judgment
After Jiang Ran shouted to the four werewolf ancestors, these golden monsters did not move for a long time, which made him a little panicked.
He couldn't guess what these ancestors were planning, he only knew that they would not attack him for the time being.
(Could it be that... they don't have any long-range attack methods?)
Jiang Ran thought about it. He didn't know about the other ancestors, but the female ancestor named "Ancestor of the Eyes, Ain" had used a long-range golden thunder attack in front of him. Therefore, the speculation that "the werewolf ancestors were unable to use long-range attacks" was not true.
(Then... could it be that they're afraid of accidentally injuring Kenroshi Okami, so they're hesitant to act rashly?)
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran felt that it was quite possible, so he subconsciously pushed Kenroshi Okami's body onto his shoulder again, and continued to wait for the response from the werewolf ancestors.
Jiang Ran thought secretly, if he was lucky, maybe he could have a chance to negotiate?
·
·
Ever since Jiang Ran started shouting from a distance, these werewolf ancestors have been whispering to each other. Due to the distance, Jiang Ran couldn't understand what they were discussing even if he tried to read their lips.
However, there was one thing Jiang Ran was certain of, and that was the very different opinions among the four werewolf ancestors, especially the male ancestor, the Fang Ancestor Tias, who had a wolf fang necklace hanging around his neck. His face flushed red, and he seemed about to explode with anger.
The subsequent result was just as Jiang Ran expected. After only two or three minutes, the werewolf ancestor wearing the wolf tooth necklace began to roar in anger.
"I'm not as shameless as you guys and can continue to embarrass myself here! If you want to pretend to be 'calm', then keep pretending! You're a bunch of spineless guys!"
The Ancestor of Fangs, Tias, roared a few times, then left without looking back, leaving only his rough voice echoing in the air.
Jiang Ran didn't understand what the werewolf ancestor was angry about, but he didn't have time to think about it, because not long after the werewolf ancestor left, the remaining three werewolf ancestors took action.
The ancestor of bones, Bourne, created a pitch-black bone out of thin air, and handed it to the ancestor of eyes, Ain.
Afterwards, the Claw Ancestor, Klauer, also created a golden wolf claw out of thin air and threw it into the hands of the Eye Ancestor, Ain.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Ran instinctively felt that something was wrong. At this moment, he no longer cared about any strategy and turned around and ran! He ran with all his might! He even left behind Kenroshi Okami's body!
However, even though he reacted immediately, three slightly smaller "Golden Thunder Eyes" still appeared around him and slowly rotated around him in the shape of an equilateral triangle.
Because just as Jiang Ran turned and ran away, the "Golden Thunder Eye" with flashing electric light had already appeared behind the ancestor of the eyes, Ain.
The pitch-black bones and golden wolf claws were all absorbed by the Golden Thunder Eye, and this "eye" filled with ominous power activated, and then the scene that happened next to Jiang Ran just now happened.
As soon as Jiang Ran saw these ghost things, he immediately used the "Shadow Escape Step" to escape from the formation, but what he didn't expect was that after he completed the teleportation, the three golden thunder eyes also teleported with him!
Without giving it time to think, Jiang Ran immediately used the "Double Shadow Escape Step" and then performed the "Shadow Behind - Teleport" with the shadow clone standing in the distance. However, even though he had tried his best, after a total of three consecutive teleportations, the three golden thunder eyes were still slowly rotating around him, as if they had become a part of his body.
(???!!!)
Jiang Ran was horrified. He had never encountered such a thing since he came to the Prison Star World!
In the chaos, Jiang Ran swung a sword at a golden thunder eye in front of him, trying to destroy it, but the result was that the sword went straight through the golden thunder eye and could not affect its existence at all.
It was not until this moment that Jiang Ran suddenly realized that these three golden thunder eyes were not summoning objects, but something similar to a magic circle.
Moreover, it happened to be a "magic circle" that was sure to hit.
·
"The calamity of pain, the thorns of guilt, the flesh and blood bearing the name of humanity, the wall of unknown sinful dreams..."
In the werewolf territory behind Jiang Ran, Ain, the ancestor of the eyes, was chanting his farewell calmly.
The curse ritual she was currently performing would surely succeed once it locked onto its target, unless someone could kill her before she could complete the chant.
Therefore, no matter how far Banning ran or how many times he teleported, it made no difference to the Eye Ancestor, Ain.
As her chanting gradually progressed to the end, the three golden thunder eyes surrounding Banning gradually changed from gold to pitch black. Then, the ancestor of the eyes, Ain, uttered the final words to complete the "Curse of the Ancestral Wolf's Judgment".
"The request for judgment has been made. I ask the gods to issue a decree of punishment."
As soon as he finished speaking, three black spikes shot out from the three pitch-black pupils of the Golden Thunder Eyes and pierced Banning's body accurately. However, these three spikes did not cause him physical harm, but left a curse mark on his soul.
Looking at the frightened "Banning" who was checking his body in panic, the three werewolf ancestors just looked at each other, then turned and left the border.
In their view, as long as the "Curse of the Ancestral Wolf's Conviction" is completed, the rest of the things will be left to nature. Regardless of whether Banning can complete the "curse mission", it will be beneficial to the werewolf clan.
·
The camera switched to Jiang Ran. Thanks to the protection of the "Fearless Heart", he did not feel fear when he was pierced by three black thorns. However, the human instinctive physiological reaction still made him break out in a cold sweat.
The experience of just a few seconds can be said to be the closest he has ever been to death since he came to the Prison Star World.
(Stupid Loli: Wuwawawawa!!! I thought you were dead, Jiang Yan, wuwuwu...)
The stupid loli burst into tears in Jiang Ran's mind, and Jiang Ran himself was still in shock. The crisis just now had really come too suddenly... and it seemed that this crisis had not yet passed.
Jiang Ran untied his leather armor, pulled up his inner clothes, and saw that all the places on his body where he was pierced by the three black thorns had black triangular wolf-eye marks.
Not only are these marks impossible to wipe off, but they also seem to be "alive" and will wriggle from time to time, which is extremely disgusting.
Jiang Ran immediately identified these marks, and then he realized that he was cursed by the werewolf ancestors.
·
At this moment, Jiang Ran's status information clearly showed "Abnormal Status: Curse", and the remaining time was 98 days, 23 hours and 59 minutes.
Such a long remaining time should have been a bad thing, but after Jiang Ran carefully examined the three black triangular wolf eye marks again, he began to be grateful that he had 99 days to lift the curse.
The reason Jiang Ran was thankful was that, unlike ordinary abnormal states and curses, the curse the werewolf ancestors had placed on him did not have any lasting negative effects, but instead required him to complete the mission objectives.
However, if Jiang Ran fails to complete the task within the duration of the curse, he will die suddenly.
(Let me see... The mission objective is... to kill the 'Dark Rabbit Queen'?)
(Who is this 'Dark Rabbit Queen'...?)

Next chapter: The Cat Guarding the Secret
9.01 - Restore
━━━━━━━━━━
October 187, 8
〖2:35 pm〗
[Confession death countdown remaining: 30 days]
━━━━━━━━━━
It was not until Jiang Ran was cursed by the werewolf ancestor that he realized that he had been wrong from the beginning.
He thought that no matter how powerful the werewolf ancestors were, the two sides could always communicate with each other. But in fact, the werewolf ancestors had never considered the option of negotiating with him, because in their eyes, Jiang Ran was not their equal at all.
To put it more bluntly, in the eyes of the werewolf ancestors, Jiang Ran didn't even have the qualifications to talk to them - the fact that the werewolf ancestors left directly after casting the curse was the best proof.
(I think I got cocky after defeating Kenroshi Okami... How can I even ask for negotiations when our forces are so unequal?)
Jiang Ran conducted self-reflection in time. Although he could not escape even if he wanted to, his decision in the face of the werewolf ancestors was indeed too naive.
Now, since he has been cursed, Jiang Ran can only find a way to solve it.
"Fortunately", the specific content of this "Ancestral Wolf's Curse of Judgment" has been very "considerately" displayed in the three black triangle wolf eye marks on Jiang Ran's body. Even if he has no identification ability, he can easily know what kind of situation he is in.
·
Firstly, the contents of the three marks are the same, but the characters used are different, namely the common language of the human race, the common language of the demon race, and the werewolf language. The common content recorded in these three marks is:
━━━━━━━━━━
The cursed person must pierce the "Thorn of Judgment of the Ancestral Wolf" into the "Heart of the Dark Rabbit Queen Wusuoqi" within 99 days. If this is not achieved, the cursed person will die immediately when the time runs out.
━━━━━━━━━━
After reading the contents recorded in these marks, Jiang Ran's most direct feeling was that this "Ancestral Wolf's Curse of Judgment" was really too "considerate", "considerate" as if it was afraid that Jiang Ran, the cursed person, did not know the content of the curse.
As for the content of the curse, it must also be heartfelt, otherwise it would be impossible to use the "cursed" as a gun.
Jiang Ran now understood why the werewolf ancestors left so easily. With such a curse to restrict Jiang Ran, there was really no need for them to stay.
If Jiang Ran refused to carry out the curse, he would only have less than 99 days left to live. If Jiang Ran completed the "task" required by the curse, the werewolf ancestors would also achieve their desired goal - obviously, the value of the "Dark Rabbit Queen Wu Saoqi" mentioned in the curse was far, far, far greater than Jiang Ran's life.
The moment he understood this, Jiang Ran felt sorry for Kenrushi Okami. He, the second son of the Wolf King chief, was ultimately just a chip being weighed on the scales of interests.
