73: Everything running on the ground and flying in the sky can become a mount

Chapter 73: Everything That Runs on Land and Flies in the Sky Becomes a Mount.

"Awooo~"

Xu Jingzhe, having undergone lycanthropy, let out a long howl toward the sky. He was three meters tall, covered entirely in wolf fur, and his green eyes shot out two beams of murderous cold light.

The fangs protruding from his wolf muzzle were about thirty centimeters long. Thick saliva dripped from the roots of his teeth, stringing out thinly. These teeth were harder than diamonds and could easily pierce a victim's body.

With a swing of his sharp claws, a row of wooden pews was shredded to pieces, and tiny particles floated inside the church.

Vladimir watched the Werewolf slowly approach him, a cold sneer playing on his lips. A Werewolf created by the wolf king's bone truly was different.

His strength was terrifying; even Vladimir, who possessed eight rings on his pollution core, felt trepidation and dared not fight him head-on.

Wait, why is he still moving forward?

Vladimir's smile froze on his face. According to the experience passed down through his family, the infected person should not be able to withstand the erosion of the bacterial virus, and his body should begin to rot internally.

How is he still able to support such a massive body and move forward?!

This defies logic.

"Swish!"

Xu Jingzhe, having undergone lycanthropy, swung his sharp claws, leaving five streaks of white light in the air. Vladimir couldn't dodge in time and was slapped away.

The strength of that slap was enormous, easily thousands of pounds of force.

After smashing through the church's wooden wall and flying for a full kilometer, Vladimir slammed into a large tree.

"Tear!"

The large tree looked as if it had been struck by lightning, its trunk splitting into shreds.

Vladimir passed out. Before losing consciousness, he still couldn't understand why Xu Jingzhe was able to withstand the virus from the wolf king's bone.

"Awooo~" Xu Jingzhe howled toward the sky once more. Only slaughter remained in his mind.

Especially the scent of Vladimir the Vampire stimulated his nerves, triggering the deeply hidden bloodthirsty genes within his body.

His thick legs bent slightly, his wolf fur stood on end, and his sharp claws, dozens of centimeters long, dug into the ground. He leaped with force.

A large hole appeared in the already crumbling roof of the church, and Xu Jingzhe landed a hundred meters away.

A single jump covered several hundred meters, which was terrifying.

After a few bounds, he landed beside Vladimir, his sharp claws raised high, ready to pierce his chest.

System: "Ding, you must have sensed the changes the Lycanthropy Parvovirus made to every part of your body."

Xu Jingzhe's arm paused, and clarity returned to his eyes.

"Did you do this on purpose?"

System: "Ding, how could it be on purpose? When bacteria are consumed to modify the body, it is your body that is being modified, and naturally, you are the one undergoing the series of changes."

"It's just that this time, I allowed your body to consume only one percent of the Lycanthropy Parvovirus."

"But this is the wolf king's bone, after all. Based on my speculation, when it was alive, its strength was at least equivalent to a forty-year Contaminant. It is normal for your brain to be controlled by the killing cells."

Xu Jingzhe looked down at his arm and clenched his fist hard. That strong?

And that was only one percent!

Just then, he suddenly turned around.

He sniffed the air and confirmed that the scent of Werewolves was drifting from afar. The scent was getting stronger, meaning they were approaching quickly.

One minute later, four massive wolf bodies appeared before Xu Jingzhe. Their wolf tails, like brooms, dragged on the ground. They bared their teeth and circled Xu Jingzhe, sniffing incessantly from hundreds of meters away.

"Jacob, why is he walking upright?" Soya asked.

Jacob kept sniffing. Confusion was also visible in his emerald green pupils. It was the scent of a companion, there was no mistake.

But why did this scent cause a faint fear deep within his heart, making him involuntarily want to submit, like a wolf pack facing the Wolf King?

"Awooo~"

Jacob's emerald green pupils turned dark green, and the light contracted—a sign of an impending attack.

In this Wolf Tribe, he was the Wolf King!

He had to defend his territory!

"Jacob, what are you doing?" Soya asked.

"Swoosh!"

Jacob did not reply, transforming into a gray bolt of lightning and pouncing on Xu Jingzhe.

This speed was fast in the eyes of others. But in the eyes of Xu Jingzhe, who had undergone lycanthropy, it was as slow as an old woman pushing a cart.

Jacob lunged forward and opened his massive, bloody mouth. Xu Jingzhe extended his right claw, grabbed his wolf head, and forcefully slammed it down.

"Thud!"

With a loud crash, the head, larger than a washbasin, was smashed into the ground. Spiderweb-like cracks spread for dozens of meters, and Jacob let out a painful wail.

"Awoo~ Awoo~ Awoo~"

Carrying Jacob like a dead dog, Xu Jingzhe walked toward the remaining three wolves. His three-meter-tall body resembled a Wolf Demon, inspiring awe and fear.

"Awooo~"

With a roar that scattered the dark clouds in the sky, the three giant wolves immediately prostrated themselves, their tails pressed to the ground, docile like domesticated dogs.

Among Werewolves, strength reigns supreme.

There can only be one Wolf King in an area!

Xu Jingzhe defeated Jacob, so he was the new Wolf King... Returning to the church, Xu Jingzhe had already reverted to his original appearance. Feeling awkward about being naked, he stripped Vladimir's clothes off and put them on.

He could only undergo mutation once. The Lycanthropy Parvovirus, under the System's influence, modified his body, greatly increasing his strength, speed, recovery, and resistance to damage.

It had improved several times over what it was before!

Often, if you can't beat someone, being able to take a beating is a skill in itself.

One Vampire and four Werewolves, all stark naked.

Two of them were female wolves!

The four Werewolves reverted to human form. Jacob, bruised and swollen, stood to the side in a posture of submission, his eyes filled with fear and loyalty.

Vladimir was still unconscious, whether feigning or truly out. He lay naked on the pew. Soya and the other female Werewolf suppressed the restless genes within their bodies, desperately wanting to mate with Vladimir and then devour him raw.

Xu Jingzhe had rewrapped the wolf king's bone in the parchment scroll. He needed to seriously consider his next move.

If he handed such a terrifying item over to the major families in the Chemical Zone, would the Werewolf warriors created from it bring terrible disaster to the Pollution Zone!

But if he didn't exchange the wolf king's bone for a highly valuable pollution core, how could he afford the expensive medicine?

He scanned the group with his eyes, and an idea formed in his mind.

"Stop pretending to be dead. Werewolves and Vampires are natural enemies, but they are now subservient to me and won't harm you."

Vladimir opened one eye, his pupils darting around. Only after confirming Xu Jingzhe's words did he get up.

Seeing himself completely naked, he pretended to be calm and elegant, straightening his posture.

He was the noble Vladimir.

It was a contest of size; whoever was smaller would be embarrassed.

"I want pollution cores. Who among you has any?" Xu Jingzhe asked. "Or, come with me to hunt Contaminators and obtain pollution cores."

The four Werewolves bowed slightly. Jacob stepped forward and said, "There are many pollution cores in the Werewolf dwelling area. Please take as many as you wish."

Xu Jingzhe nodded and looked at Vladimir.

This Vampire was full of wicked thoughts and truly excelled at acting.

"Do you want your Broken Wing back?"

"Of course."

"Then form the Vow of the Song Covenant with me and become my mount!" Xu Jingzhe said.

He really wanted a Vampire mount!

"The noble Vladimir cannot possibly become a Werewolf's mount!" he declared proudly.

"Roar!"

In an instant, the four people transformed into giant wolves, their dark green eyes staring at Vladimir. The hot air exhaled from their nostrils struck Vladimir's body.

If Xu Jingzhe gave the order, he would instantly be torn to shreds.

"Unless, of course, it is for someone more noble than I."

"I, Vladimir the Vampire, am willing to become the honored master's mount for life!"
