Although Amy was still childlike in temperament, having been trained by two high-ranking god-kings, her intelligence far surpassed that of ordinary people.
She could certainly guess that William was very strong, both from the way her masters treated him and from William’s own actions along the way.
In any case, Mr. Johnson was powerful, but to what extent, she didn’t know.
Children shouldn’t speak recklessly, so since Wes asked her to go out and rescue people, she followed him.
Wes wasn’t the absolute authority in Arcane Village,he didn’t have the power to order the entire city’s army to charge out of the city and into the beast tide.
Especially not just to save two people.
If trying to rescue William and Hugo resulted in even more casualties, it would be a loss too great.
Amy was ranked eleventh among the strongest humans. With the two of them in action, things might be better, and they would be more agile.
“Mr. Wenzel, those big dogs outside aren’t fierce at all,they’re actually quite well-behaved,” Amy said, not feeling any danger.
On the way to the base, she and William had also encountered many strangely shaped fierce beasts, but those beasts were very “polite” to them, never as terrifying as the adults described.
Wes felt a mix of emotions.
Those big dogs are well-behaved?
My God!
Those mutated evil wolves, especially in packs, even S-class powerhouses would avoid them at all costs.
And Amy calls that well-behaved?
Wes didn’t dare delay any longer, grabbing a black spear and leading Amy out of the city.
“Colonel Wes, our 3rd Battalion requests to join the fight!” At the city gate, a group of Soulmancers formed into an army and charged out with them.
They had all been following Wes, and as men of valor, how could they just stand by and watch Wes go off to rescue someone with a little girl?
Even though the little girl was strong, it still made them uneasy.
“What battle are you requesting? We’re going to rescue people,” Wes glared at the leading officer and scolded, “Take your men and roll back! Do you all want to run out and get yourselves killed?”
“Do you really want to charge directly at that group of monsters?” Wes stood at the city gate, already able to see some huge ferocious beasts.
With so few people, if they were to confront these beasts head-on, they would likely be wiped out in an instant.
The leading officer clearly understood Wes Wenzel’s point.
Trying to charge into the beast tide with so few people, especially when those distant beasts clearly possessed extraordinary strength, would mean a larger target and unknown numbers of casualties.
“Properly guarding the base is how we save more people! Don’t make needless sacrifices. The great task of saving the world still depends on you!” Wes finished speaking, waved his hand, and said, “Go back!”
He and Amy had come out to rescue William and Hugo with a mindset prepared for a desperate fight.
He should have never allowed Hugo and the others to come out in the first place.
At this point, Wes’s regret was clearly pointless.
The soldiers of the 3rd Battalion could only turn around and head back collectively.
Amy didn’t feel the melancholy of these people.
Indeed, she didn’t feel it.
She even thought that Mr. Johnson wouldn’t be in any trouble at all, perhaps Mr. Johnson was somewhere grilling and eating meat right now.
Wes, with Amy in tow, cautiously entered the forest, whispering, “Amy, be careful.”
“Oh, I know.” Amy dragged the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian, looking around as she followed behind.
“What got into these beasts today? They’ve all come out,” Wes whispered, hiding behind a large tree with his spear, “Amy, stay close to me, don’t get lost, don’t get spotted.”
Amy was indeed following behind, but she spotted the lead wolf that had carried her to the base earlier and shouted, “Big black dog! Come here!”
Wes was startled by Amy’s shout, and as he turned around abruptly, a group of mutated evil wolves had already charged towards them.
These mutated wolves were incredibly fast, their claws tough enough to tear through ordinary armor, and their strength was incomparable to that of regular wolves.
Wes, spear in hand, was ready to fight.
But then he heard Amy shout, “Mr. Wenzel, don’t scare them, they’re really well-behaved, they don’t bite.”
Amy had previously been so frightened by them that she could barely hold her sword steady, and now she was telling Wes not to be afraid.
Wes turned pale.
Well-behaved?!
These were mutated evil wolves, and the lead wolf was huge, clearly not an easy opponent.
These ferocious creatures could eat a person without leaving any bones, and yet Amy was calling them well-behaved!
“We’ll ride them to find Mr. Johnson,” Amy said, grabbing the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian and leaping onto the back of the lead wolf. “Big Dog’s nose is sharp, he’ll definitely be able to find him.”
Big… Big Dog…
Wes felt incredibly conflicted!
You call this thing a big dog?
Is your dog this huge?
It’s several times larger than a cougar!
Wes, spear still in hand, kept his guard up around the wolves until a giant wolf with green fur slowly approached him, panting and wagging its tail in a friendly manner. Only then did Wes relax.
He didn’t feel any hostility from these wolves,he even started to think these big creatures were some kind of mutated dogs.
Wes tentatively reached out and touched the giant wolf in front of him, and to his surprise, the wolf nuzzled his chest with its head and let out a low whine.
“Can I stand on your back?” Wes asked tentatively.
He believed that these mutated wolves could understand human speech.
The giant wolf let out a low whine and gently nudged Wes.
Taking a deep breath, Wes finally stood on the wolf’s back.
“Let’s go!” Amy shouted, and the lead wolf started sprinting through the forest.
A dozen wolves followed behind, with Wes right behind Amy.
Both being Soulmancers, they could stand on the wolves’ backs without easily falling off.
“Amy, are you sure this is okay?” Wes suddenly panicked. Even if these wolves meant no harm, what about other ferocious beasts?
Was it really safe to charge in so conspicuously?
Amy shouted back confidently, “Big Black Dog will lead us to Mr. Johnson, right, Big Black Dog?”
The lead wolf seemed to understand Amy and responded with a howl.
Amy mimicked the sound, “Awoo! Awoo!”
Wes couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears. How could this possibly be reliable?
The pack of wolves didn’t run long in the forest before they encountered William, who was carrying a pangolin tail.
William, holding a 20-foot-long pangolin tail, strolled leisurely through the woods like an old man who had just bought a pig’s foot from the supermarket and was carrying it home.
If there had been a young woman in a sexy miniskirt by the roadside, the old man would have probably enjoyed the sight even more.
