Chapter 529: Might of the Beastkin

King Leonidas made the decision to mobilize all the units and kill all the demon wolves. Since only a few combatants also need to protect the children and women, they three thousand combatants that could fight outside will be reduced to half of that number.

The defense of the capital lies on each combatant to kill at least four or five demon wolves. The numbers might be too large to a single combatant but the beastkins are not a race that knows fear. The first to move are the fox clan as they utilize their mystic arts to separate the demon wolves attacking.

The mystic arts that the fox clan used is a way of misdirection. King Leonidas planned to use their Mystic Fog so that each combatant could kill one demon wolf at a time. Although that would also mean that the fox clan would need to dedicate their entire focus on keeping the Mystic Fog active.

The fox clan members stood in specific directions around the castle and made hands signs. When they finished using their hand signs, each of them emitted a fog that is released from their tails. The fog traveled up to a kilometer with the castle in the center of it.

The beastkin combatants are then strategically placed so that they can be easily located inside the fog. They are also told not to stray too far away or else they might get attacked by the wandering demon wolves inside the fog. The demon wolves that are already near the castle got swallowed by the fog while those that have yet to enter stopped in their tracks.

The demon wolves outside the fog tried to communicate with their pack members that are swallowed inside the fog, but they did not receive a reply. The Mystic Fog that the fox clan used is their peak illusion art.

An illusion so great that it could even affect reality itself in a small degree. The scent of everyone inside the fog will vanish which means that the demon wolves could not use their sharp noses to get out. It also prevents the sound coming from the outside while all noises inside will be mixed and be recreated as noise.

The best feature of the Mystic Fog is the ability to disorient those inside as they will lose their sense of direction. This disorientation is so powerful that those inside will be unable to know that they are already walking in circles. This is what is happening with the demon wolves now.

The fox clan members could usually keep he Mystic Fog active for six hours straight if their goal is just to disorient their enemies. But they need to carefully lead a demon wolf out to a location which means the strain is heavy. At most, they can only keep this up for two hours which is not a large amount of time to defeat a ten thousand strong demon wolf pack.

About three thousand or so demon wolves are caught inside the Mystic Fog which leaves seven thousand of them outside of it. This is all within the plans of King Leonidas as he wanted to charge into battle with his royal guards.

It might be too much to say that a warrior king and ten of his royal knights is too much for seven thousand demon wolves, but the Selvaggians are different. King Leonidas can easily pummel a thousand of the demon wolves as long as he is not attacked all at the same time which might wear him down.

The ten royal knights of the Selvaggian King are from different races that are said to be the most powerful of their species. The first royal knight is an elephant beastkin that is not only powerful but also very smart. He wields two giant axes that would make any ordinary warrior cower from the sheer size and weight.

The second royal knight is a gorilla beastkin which is said to be the strongest of the ten. He wields a Warhammer that could easily break the skulls of his opponents. The third royal knight is a tiger beastkin that is a master of unarmed combat. She is fiercer than any type of martial artist with the use of her fearsome gaze and sharp claws.

The fourth royal knight is a bear beastkin which wields a towering shield. He is the sturdy and patient which makes his shield hard to destroy. The fifth royal knight is oxen beastkin that is the exact opposite of Kabrakan as she is a pure damage dealer. She wields a bludgeon that is twice her size and the other end that is a diameter thick.

The sixth royal knight is an anaconda beastkin that can easily crush someones throat with her bare hands. Her choice of weapon is a whip that is said to be crafted from the strongest fiber that can be found in The Wilde. The seventh royal knight is a crocodile beastkin with scales as tuff as armor, but his bite is the most terrifying. He uses his beast transformation halfway to use his own jaws as a weapon.

The eight royal knight is a hippo beastkin which is as heavy as the elephant beastkin. He uses two war clubs as weapons and uses his body weight to pulverize his enemies to death. The ninth royal knight is a hyena beastkin that is the most unpredictable of the royal knight but is the most loyal to the current king. He is said to be a dirty fighter as he uses any means necessary as long as he wins.

The tenth royal knight is a cheetah beastkin that is the fastest of them all. She uses two scimitars that is weightless but is so sharp that it cuts steel like butter. She might be ranked last, but she is said to be the deadliest of the Selvag Royal Knights.

King Leonidas himself recruited them and they are the most loyal to him. He recruited them by beating each one in combat. He is said to be the reincarnation of the first king as his might can only match that of the first king. The Selvaggian King and his royal knights wreaked havoc on the front lines.
