**Chapter 27: Who is the Pet?**
This effect is definitely abnormal, right? Is summoning companions this terrifying? Did it call all the Gray Wolves from the entire plain?!
“Maybe you called out too miserably,” Starry analyzed.
Is it my fault?
“Little brother, don’t be afraid! We’re here to help you!” The Gray Wolf at the front shouted.
“Yeah, we have so many wolves; we don’t need to be afraid of this human anymore. Just stop! We are noble warriors, and even when threatened, we cannot submit. The dignity of the Wolf Clan cannot be trampled!”
“Boss, I guess this little brother has his own difficulties. Maybe there’s something on that treacherous human woman,” another wolf started brainstorming.
“Understood, the fast brothers should go around from both sides and surround this detestable human who dares to control our Gray Wolf Clan!” The leader spoke.
By the way, besides bosses, there is a chance for elite-level monsters to spawn among ordinary monsters, which are not inferior to bosses and have a quite considerable drop rate.
The elite Gray Wolves quickly flanked from both sides, even faster than Zane!
After all, the Gray Wolf Zane transformed into was just an ordinary member of the Gray Wolf Clan.
Zane found the dialogue amusing and frustrating; he was just an insider!
…
“Hey, Mo Han, aren’t we running away?” Twelve Degrees asked with a lifeless expression.
“If I could run away, I might give it a try,” Mo Han replied. Although his class was Knight, it was more of a misnomer. In the early game, mounts that disturb the balance would not appear.
“We’ve wasted two hours training for nothing…” Right Path sighed deeply.
All the Gray Wolves treated them equally and surrounded them together.
As the encirclement formed, seemingly feeling that the outcome was settled, the Gray Wolf King stepped forward alone.
At this moment, Starry also saw its panel clearly.
**Gray Wolf King (Leader Level Boss)**
Rarity: Black Iron grade
Level: 15
Health: 5000
Attack: 60-85
Defense: 37
Skills: Call of the Pack, Sprint, Storm Claw
Description: The leader of the pack, who learned the powers of the wind element by chance. Those who challenge it must be prepared to be torn apart by fierce winds.
Its health was nearly 10 times that of a regular Gray Wolf, with attack power also significantly increased, and its defense even higher than Zane’s attack power!
Moreover, Sprint became a skill called Sprinting, and it now possessed an additional skill, Storm Claw, which should not be underestimated.
Starry, can you still use your new move?
“…I’m not sure. The last Star Mark failed, likely due to my current attributes limiting my performance. Additionally, using it for the first time would severely deplete my energy; the sudden disappearance earlier was also due to this reason,” Starry said.
Okay, then don’t use it; your health is more important. It’s just level one; if you drop it, you drop it.
“But… it’s all because of me…” Starry said, lowering her head in guilt.
Just as Zane was about to say something, the Gray Wolf King spoke.
“Child, look around! You are not alone; we are all your solid support. These humans are already scared and trembling. If you want to take revenge, now is the time! Show that wicked woman a lesson!” The Gray Wolf King said emphatically.
If Zane were indeed one of the Gray Wolves, he would definitely have been moved by the king’s power.
Unfortunately, he was not.
“Ding”
**System Notification: The special faction ‘Gray Wolf Clan’ is now accessible.**
In the blink of an eye, the originally dense red health bars turned into green friendly factions!
“…” Alright, now it’s set.
In that case, let’s make use of it.
“O great king, this woman is not an enemy; she is merely my pet.”
“Pet?” Not only the king, but even the surrounding wolves were confused.
“That’s right. To test her combat abilities, I specially carried her to run, wanting to see what she could achieve. Among humans, this approach also exists, called a Beast Tamer, a branch of Summoners. What I aim to be is a ‘Human Tamer!'” Zane continued to spin his tale.
“I see!” The wolf king suddenly understood but felt something was off, pondering, “Then why did you call for help earlier?”
“I wanted to demonstrate my results to everyone, but unfortunately, during the process, something went wrong. I haven’t fully gotten this human to obey me yet, so it hurt many of my kin. It was all my fault; I am willing to accept any punishment!” Zane said while observing the king’s reaction.
…
Although the wolves were whispering excitedly, the only ones who truly understood were Zane and the telepathic Starry.
The other three were utterly bewildered.
“Beautiful lady, what are they doing?” Mo Han couldn’t help but ask.
Starry was now filled with rage and just wanted to strangle Zane, how could he call her his pet! Making it sound like some sadomasochistic relationship. What’s worse is that this foolish king actually believed it.
If she hadn’t been worried about exhausting her energy, she would have used other methods to break free long ago.
“They should be discussing how to deal with us, probably…” Starry said.
“Wow, even these minor monsters have AI settings?” Right Path exclaimed, flabbergasted.
Suddenly, with a loud call from the Gray Wolf King, all the wolves scattered and returned to their original positions.
Success!
“What just happened?” The three of them were ready to drop levels, but happiness came too suddenly.
“They… were persuaded to leave by my pet,” Starry said with a smile on her lips.
“Nailed it!” The three exclaimed in unison.
At this moment, Mo Han said, “Beautiful lady, would you like to join our team? We have tank, output, and healing covered. I guarantee it’ll be a smooth ride!”
“No thanks, I still prefer to solo.”
“Alright… then we’ll continue leveling up, bye~”
“Mm, bye.”
…
Thank goodness I’m clever; I won’t drop levels, hahaha. Zane laughed loudly in his mind.
Starry gritted her teeth, “Who is the pet?”
That’s not the point! Who knew that wolf king could be so easily deceived!
“Who is the pet?” The crisp voice gradually dropped a few degrees in temperature.
Just a few casual words drove them all away.
“Who is the pet?”
…I am, I am, isn’t that enough? Zane felt weary.
“Humph, that’s more like it.” Starry had finally calmed down.
Looking at the quest progress, 106/100, she had unknowingly met the requirements.
Luckily, the task was completed before being surrounded. This special faction had not been thoroughly explored, and perhaps there would be unexpected gains; it was better to be cautious.
…
“Great, the Gray Wolves definitely won’t dare to act recklessly now!” Mos said happily.
“Ding”
**System Notification: Your team has gained 15,000 Experience Points, 5 Silver Coins, and Gray Wolf Gauntlets.**
Gray Wolf Gauntlets? Are they made from the fur of Gray Wolves?
