The children who were in the middle of summoning saw this scene and their faces turned pale.
This was because their parents were fighting with the Black Wolves at the front. If there was no gate to block the Black Wolves, it would cause even greater losses.
However…
The children had no choice but to grit their teeth and try their best to summon a Summoned Beast. They wanted to complete the contract as soon as possible.
“Howl!”
The howl of the wolves resounded throughout the area. Following the howl, the Black Wolves swarmed into Willow village like a tidal wave and began their slaughter.
“Stop them!”
The adults who were trying their best to defend in all directions of the village hurriedly returned to defend and block the Black Wolves.
However, facing tens of thousands of Black Wolves, who were led by a Bronze Rank Black Wolf King, the village’s defensive strength was completely unable to stop them.
“Ah!”
Miserable cries rang out continuously amidst the wolf howls. From time to time, some people were bitten by the Black Wolves and sucked into the wolf pack.
The adults’ Summoned Beasts fought hard, but unfortunately, this village was too weak. The strongest one was only a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast.
In the face of the mighty Black Wolf Pack, there was no way to stop them.
The shadow of death enveloped the entire village. One after another, the adults fell in pools of blood and died.
The children in the center of the field all revealed expressions of despair. They were calling out in pain, carrying out their last struggle.
Buzz!
The white array suddenly flashed. A gray bull appeared in the summoning array, emitting a violent aura.
“It’s a Gray-Horned Bull. It’s very suitable for charging. Quickly go and support them,” the old village chief hurriedly shouted.
It was already a critical moment. The entire village had gathered in the square, fighting hard against the Black Wolves to buy time.
Although only an Ordinary Gray-Horned Bull appeared, it was still hope for the village, so the old village chief hurried it.
“Gray-Horned Bull, come with me!”
A chubby little boy shouted loudly and rushed out with a short knife in his hand. In fear, he started fighting with the Black Wolf.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Another three magic arrays lit up. Three Ordinary Summoned Beasts appeared from the magic arrays and were brought by the children to provide support.
Very soon, the magic arrays lit up one after another. In the middle of the square, there was only a determined-looking little boy, a dark-skinned kid with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
“Lu Tian, you can do it. Your talent is the highest. You must summon a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast to buy us time…”
“As long as we have a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast, we can stop the Black Wolf and hold on until help comes,” the old village chief said with blood trickling down the corner of his mouth.
His Summoned Beast had died in battle not long ago, and he had suffered a backlash. However, he could not care less about this and instead kept encouraging the tanned boy.
“Grandpa Village Chief, I will work hard, I will definitely work hard!”
Lu Tian said loudly and used a small knife to cut his wrist viciously. Immediately, fresh blood quickly spilled into the Summoning Array, causing the array to rapidly expand.
This scene raised hope in the village chief. He looked at the array with anticipation, hoping that the figure of the Black Iron Summoning Beast would appear in the array.
“Little fatty, little fatty, don’t die, don’t die! Sob, sob, sob! Someone, please help us, please help us!”
At this moment, sobs suddenly sounded. When the old village chief and Lu Tian heard this sound, they suddenly trembled and hurriedly looked in the direction where the sound came from.
When they saw this, their eyes instantly lit up.
At the edge of the Millstone in front of them, the little fatty who had brought the Gray-Horned Bull to fight had already fallen in a pool of blood. It was unknown whether he was alive or dead.
His Gray-Horned Bull was also covered in injuries. It was doing its best to protect the little fatty and fight against more than ten Black Wolves.
This scene caused everyone to be in pain and suffering. However, there was nothing they could do. This was because everyone was in danger and did not have the strength to save them.
At the center of the field, Lu Tian shouted hoarsely.
“God, I beg you, let me contract a powerful Black Iron Summoning Beast. As long as I can save the village, I’m willing to protect the weak forever.”
Buzz!
The white Summoning Array shook violently, and the light suddenly became bright and dazzling.
In this light, a small figure appeared in the center of the array, gradually becoming clearer.
When the light from the spell formation dissipated, Lu Tian quickly took a closer look. It was as if he had been struck by lightning.
“Is it just a Frost Cat? Grandpa Village Chief, I’m sorry. I failed. I only contracted an Ordinary Frost Cat.”
Lu Tian turned his head. His eyes were filled with a deathly stillness. It was a mixture of pain, despair, self-blame, and regret, forming a deathly stillness.
This was because Lu Tian knew that the village was finished. Even if his Summoned Beast, the Frost Cat, joined the battle, it would still be impossible to save the village.
Facing thousands of Black Wolves, one more Ordinary Summoned Beast would be useless. Therefore, Willow Village was completely finished. No one could save the village.
“Meow!”
The meow of the cat suddenly sounded. It wasn’t loud, but it caused the scene to suddenly fall into a strange silence.
The Black Wolves that were crazily attacking all stopped their movements. Their bodies trembled as they looked in the direction of the sound.
This strange scene caused everyone present to be slightly shocked. They did not understand what had happened.
“My Summoned Beast is actually trembling. What’s going on?”
“My Summoned Beast is trembling as well. Look at those Black Wolves. Many of them are trembling as they lie on the ground.”
“Why is that? I think I heard a cat meow just now?”
The survivors of the village quickly gathered together and took the opportunity to rescue their companions in danger. They formed a new defensive formation.
However, the situation at the scene was a little confusing. Even if some people thought that this matter had something to do with the ice cat, they still felt that it was unlikely.
No matter how they looked at it, the Frost Cat was just an Ordinary Frost Cat. No one could tell what was wrong with it, so no one could make heads or tails of what was happening.
“Howl!”
The wolf’s howl sounded again. Following the majestic howl, the trembling Black Wolves slowly stood up. They were no longer as terrified as before.
At the same time, the Black Wolves looked at the Frost Cat with killing intent.
“I didn’t expect to encounter such a situation. Not only through this summoning, but I also found a new way to improve my soul.”
Li Xuan muttered to himself. Since he had established a contract with Lu Tian, the amount of soul feedback he received was only a tenth of Qin Yue’s.
The key point was that he had a feeling that this was the normal soul feedback, which reflected Qin Yue’s extraordinariness and uniqueness.
The moment he formed a contract with Lu Tian and was summoned to this world…
It was also the moment when the Summoning Array was extinguished. Li Xuan realized that at this stage, he received a lot of soul feedback, probably on par with Qin Yue’s.
In other words, as long as he continuously contracted a new master, after being summoned, he could self-destruct and cancel the summoning. He could barely reach Qin Yue’s level of soul feedback.
This made Li Xuan smile and decided to give it a try.
“It just so happens that I’m going to self-destruct as anyway, so I’ll also battle while I’m at it. I’ll test out my various skills and see if I can defeat a Bronze Rank Black Wolf King.”
Li Xuan was eager to give it a try. Without hesitation, he flapped his Wind Wings and flew up, quickly charging toward the Black Wolf pack.
“It’s dangerous, don’t go over!”
Lu Tian saw this scene and hurriedly shouted. He had also seen the situation not long ago and vaguely felt that his Summoned Beast was not ordinary.
However, facing thousands of Black Wolves and a Bronze Rank Black Wolf King, even if his Summoned Beast was not ordinary, it was impossible for him to defeat the Wolf King.
The safest way was to gather together with his companions and try his best to block the Black Wolves’ attack, stall for time, and wait for rescue.
However, the kitten had flown out and charged toward the Black Wolves. This was no different from courting death, so Lu Tian hurriedly shouted.
Just at this time…
Just after Lu Tian shouted this sentence…
The change occurred.
