  Naturally, the window did not allow him to pass, but as the demon wolf did, he could see through it. The windows, the walls. First, it quickly climbed up the ice, and then it turned into powder like snow, thus forming a space for the demon wolves to pass through.

  When it quietly landed on the floor of the room, Moni finally reacted.

  Out of his instinctive fear, Moni screamed and took out the handgun that was left on her body. A slender finger pressed down on the board, Moni who was holding onto Lala in one hand shot towards the giant wolf's forehead.

  Silver light rippled out of the giant wolf's amber eyes, and a force field was released. However, the force field that appeared around Bryan was different from the others. As a king, the force field that Bryan had used was glowing with a silvery grey light. When the bullets hit the force field, their speed initially decreased greatly, but after that, the surface of the bullets would be covered in frost. When the bullets were still 10 cm away from Bryan, they lost their mobility and fell to the ground, one by one, making crisp sounds.

  If there was a Element Domain Capable present, they would realize that the elemental field used by the King of Finry's wolf was actually ice and snow attribute!

  Chapter 104 - Lala Evolution

  Bryan was not in a hurry to attack, he was like a gentleman coldly inspecting the man and the beast inside the room.

  After bringing almost a hundred of their kind to the Phoenix City, under Bryan's orders, the other huge wolves started to attack the cities, attracting the attention of the troops of the Phoenix City. Bryan himself entered the city from the other side. The towering dam was unable to stop Bryan's footsteps. The freezing air released by the Wolf King could easily turn these inorganic objects into a pile of soft snow. Right now, at the dam in the southwest direction of Phoenix City, there was still a hole that had already been melted by ice.

  Under the intangible resonance of a creature between a king and a king, Bryan arrived. In its eyes, Moni was a harmless human girl. As for the king level undulations it felt, it came from a small beast in the hands of this human girl.

  For the first time, Bryan doubted his judgement. This round and ball-like beast did not look like a king of a certain race no matter how he looked at it. However, the weak and distinct ripples were emitted from the body of the strange beast. After Bryan confirmed his guess, he suddenly pushed forward.

  Seeing the huge wolf suddenly pounce at her, Moni felt as if she was facing an enormous wave that covered the heavens and the earth by herself. The girl could not react at all in front of the King of Finry's wolf.

  On the contrary, Lala, who was in her arms, suddenly turned ferocious with her cute pair of round eyes. The little beast's Z shaped wings spread out, and with the force of its wings, it flew out from Moni's embrace straight towards Bryan.

  The Wolf King was surprised that this pitifully weak beast king would actually dare to fight. However, it did not hesitate to swipe with its claw, aiming straight for Lara's body. However, Lala's claw, which could normally break metal, only managed to trap a tiny bit of her body. Then Lara was thrown aside and crashed into the closet in the room.

  Bryan looked at his front paw in a daze. According to its expectations, Lala should have been ripped into two halves. But when it came into contact with her body, Bryan felt a sort of flexibility from her claws. It was precisely this level of flexibility that allowed the strange beast to only be bounced back and not be torn to shreds on the spot.

  Putting down his claws, Bryan walked towards the wardrobe leisurely. It changed its mind. Perhaps there were other secrets on this strange beast king. Bryan was prepared to bring it back as a gift for the new King. Using the flesh of this little beast as food, the new king might get a chance to evolve.

  Moni watched as the huge wolf walked towards the wardrobe. After coming back to her senses, Moni suddenly had the courage to raise her gun and shoot continuously. However, Bryan was still unharmed even after shooting all the bullets into the spear. The Wolf King even turned its head and looked at Moni with contempt.

  As for Moni, since she was supposed to take care of Lala, she had a responsibility to protect this beast. had already walked to the front of the wardrobe and used his claws to sweep away the broken pieces, then picked them up from the inside. Lala's perfectly round body had three bloody marks on it, wounds that had been dug out by Bryan's claws. Lara's wound turned outwards, exposing her muscles, which were dripping with golden liquid.

  Moni screamed, throwing away the gun, she retrieved a dagger from her back and stabbed it fiercely towards Bryan's neck.

  The Wolf King was finally enraged. With its dignity as a king, it couldn't be bothered to attack a human little girl like Moni. But Moni's continuous assaults had already touched the bottom line of the Wolf King, Bryan suddenly turned, and swiped his claw down.

  When the wave of air attacked, Moni almost suffocated. By the time she reacted, the wolf's claws had already pressed down on her shoulders, pressing her heavily to the ground.

  Bryan's large head appeared in front of Moni. The Wolf King opened its mouth and spat out a fishy cold air. It slowly moved closer to Moni, wanting to use its sharp teeth to bite open the tender neck in front of it.

  Suddenly, a golden light shone from behind him, making it impossible for him to look straight at it.

  Bryan turned his head in surprise, but a fierce wind pressure suddenly blew over. Its eyes flashed with a gold light, it did not know what swept across it, but the immense force immediately pushed the Wolf King away from Moni's body.

  The Wolf King smashed into the wall, and with a rumbling sound, the entire wall collapsed. But in the next moment, Bryan stood up from the rubble. The Wolf King's body was flung back and forth, but all of the lime on its body was thrown away. Only, Bryan's eyes had an additional tinge of caution, and a ball of golden light was growing in his amber eyes.

  The golden light came from the spot where Lala had been. It was the size of a rubber ball at first, but then it swelled and swelled, stretching and deforming. The ball of light stopped when it reached the ceiling. Following that, the golden light gradually disappeared, and a humanoid insect beast wearing a golden shell appeared in front of the Wolf King and Moni.

  Three pairs of jade-green eyes could be seen on its enormous head. However, the wormlike body below the head appeared to be an upright human body. The back of his body, which was much smaller than his head, was covered in a layer of golden armor. The spikes protruding from the hard shell would let anyone trying to get close to it to carefully consider them. Under the hard shell on the head, two transparent wings that reached to the ground were spread out. They were like cloaks that hung from the back of the insect beast's armor, slightly swaying with its movements.

  The most peculiar part of this insect was its upper limbs. The left part of its body was shaped like a human arm, but the outer layer of its arm was also wrapped in a golden yellow hard shell. The claws were long and narrow, like the scalpels of the old days. However, the serrated edges of these scalpels only made them more destructive. As for the right arm, it was even more peculiar. The upper part was shaped like a human arm, but it extended to the upper part of the body like a cannon.

  The rhombus symbol on the forehead of such a peculiar insect beast seemed to indicate its identity.

  "Lala?" Moni looked at this insect-like beast in disbelief, completely unable to link it with the cute Lara.

  The bugbeast's green compound eyes burned with a faint green fire, reflecting the image of the Wolf King from different angles. It burned the bugbeast's nerves like a raging fire. An unprecedented desire to kill called to it, and the wormbeast raised its transparent membrane wings. The next moment, it disappeared from the room.

  When he reappeared, he was already beside the Wolf King.

  The scalpel shaped Five Claws opened wide, and the insect beast pressed onto Bryan's head. The Wolf King felt as if it was being pressed down by an iron-armored bear. The irresistible force caused i
ts limbs to go soft, and it was pushed down to the ground by the insects.

  Before it could even catch its breath, it saw a black cannon aimed at its head from the side. As the green flame in the insect's eyes grew stronger, specks of golden light began to gather in its muzzle. A violent energy was taking shape!

  Chapter 105 - Absolute Zero

  Moni half covered her mouth, she could not believe that the ferocious insect beast in front of him could be so strong. The sudden attack of the giant wolf was already very powerful, but it was now being suppressed by Lala, who for some reason had evolved.

  The girl did not know that Lara had such a vision out of instinct.

  Lala was a mutated beast that Zero had found in the Gold Devourer's lair. At that time, he had already guessed that Lala might be the new evolved form of the Gold Devourer. The fact is that by devouring its own kind, in order to absorb its genes to replenish itself, a new form of life is created. This was the only option for the metamorph to evolve in the wilderness. The Great Devour of the living corpse that Soren heard about, as well as the battle between over a hundred Finry's wolf in the Morin, were all to create this new evolution.

  Once new forms were formed, they would also ascend to become kings of that race.

  However, Lala had been following Zero ever since she transformed from a Gold Devourer. Due to the existence of Zero, Lala had lost a lot of challenge and excitement from the other beasts in the wilderness. Thus, this little beast continued to stay in its infancy until it passed through the Morin. At the same time, it sensed the existence of the king of another race in the Morin.

  And all this was done by instinct, by mysterious genetic code that Lara didn't know about. However, Bryan had been summoned, and under its control, it instinctively wanted to attack the wolf king, but it did not have any attack power at its young age. Only when Moni took the risk and loved this little girl who took care of him, did the gene lock in his body undergo a series of unpredictable changes under the double stimulation, directly allowing it to evolve into an adult in a short period of time.

  The evolution of living beings was not something that could be achieved with a flick of a finger. Even if it was the life of the new era, which evolved hundreds or even thousands of times faster than the old one, there were very few cases like Lara's. The rapid evolution, on the other hand, led to the immaturity of the individual. At least, Lara was currently unable to fully grasp her new body and strength.

  Right now, Lala was only attacking Bryan under the control of her instincts. However, this kind of attack was crude and had too many flaws. For instance, if one pulled the muzzle of the right arm and gathered the energy, it would seem that it would take too long to gather it all.

  Bryan had already lived for thirty years, and in regards to Finry's wolf, he had already entered his old age. Although old age means the weakening of physical strength and ability, it also means that the abundance of experience is not something that a young life can compare with.

  Although he was being suppressed by her immense power, Bryan was able to shake his tail in time. The seemingly weak tail was like a whip that fiercely lashed at the barrel of the cannon, instantly knocking it away.

  At the same time, Lala was able to gather her energy and blast out a golden wave from the barrel.

  However, after changing the trajectory, the strong light shot out from the muzzle only brushed past Bryan's left ear, and then, like a knife cutting through butter, instantly swept across the floor, even brushed past Moni, and finally entered the room's wall.

  The golden light flashed and vanished. Wherever the energy wave passed, a bottomless gash appeared silently on the floor and walls. There were traces of the strong acid dissolving the cracks on both sides. Moni did not dare imagine that if the energy had deviated just a little bit just now, she would have been dissected silently like the other organic beings.

  After pulling the trigger, Bryan shook it off from its five claws. The King of Finry's wolf stood up once again. Bryan's front legs fiercely smashed down, pressing down on the worm's back and pressing it down onto the ground. Lala tried to fight back, but the Wolf King's mouth was wide open, and a large amount of ice-blue mist spewed out from its mouth.

  Lala's body was quickly covered in a thick layer of frost wherever the mist swept past. Its struggling became weaker and weaker, until finally, its insect body was completely frozen by Bryan. However, after doing all this, the Wolf King's eyes were filled with fatigue. He shook his head angrily, because the left ear of the Wolf King had been melted by the same energy wave that Lala had shot out.

  The Frozen Mist that Bryan had sprayed out just now was the absolute zero degree of the ice and snow system in the Metaverse Realm. It was already at the sixth stage. Within the range of absolute zero, it is the lowest temperature at which atoms and even molecules can be frozen. This ability could be said to be Bryan's trump card. If it wasn't because it was too dangerous, the Wolf King wouldn't want to use this ability.

  After all, using Absolute Zero would greatly damage the organs that produced the cold air in its body, and thus shorten its lifespan.

  However, with Bryan's wisdom and foresight, there were times where he would misjudge others. It thought that it had definitely frozen Lala. Unexpectedly, the diamond-shaped emblem on Lala's forehead once again emitted a faint green light from within the layer of ice. Following which, the layer of golden armor on Lara's body suddenly lit up. Just like the energy cannon that had silently dissolved the organic matter, this golden light, with a power that Bryan could not comprehend, was actually soundlessly disintegrating the ice formed from the Absolute Zero degree profound ice.

  Seeing how the layer of ice thinned out, the Wolf King couldn't help but slightly step back to avoid being affected by the strange light.

  Crack * He broke through the ice. However, this seemed to have exhausted its energy. As the golden light on its body faded, Lala once again transformed from a giant bug into a plump, young beast.

  Bryan knew that this was because Lala's genes were still unstable, so she could not maintain her adulthood state. Everything comes at a price. No creature can evolve in the blink of an eye, and Lara is no exception. By barely skipping the time of growth, he was able to enter adulthood, leading to the depletion of all life in Lara's body. After transforming back into the young beast, it did not move an inch. Not only did the green light no longer emanate from the crest on its forehead, even its golden body surface had faded quite a bit. It seemed somewhat defeated.

  The Wolf King hesitated for a moment between killing Lala and taking him away, and finally chose the latter. From Bryan's point of view, Lala's genes would greatly stimulate the New Wolf King to complete a transformation. This would be of great significance to the Finry's wolf race. If the New Wolf King grasped the corrosive light rays that were like strong acids, and the Finry's wolf had the innate ability of being of the Elemental Su Domain's ice type, then the New Wolf King would become even more powerful.

  And the power of a king meant that a race could survive in a space far greater than before. This was also the king's responsibility, and that was why he said that only with kings could one have a future!

  As he spoke, Bryan glanced at Moni, and then jumped out through the gap that they had made before. He had just flown in when he sensed a strange scent coming from the hotel, but by the time he got back to the hotel, the Wolf King and Lara were nowhere to be seen.

  What was left behind, was a lost Moni.

  Chapter 106 - Assembly mark

  Her white fingers left the dissolving marks on the floor and stood in front of the scar that extended from the ground to the wall. She frowned and said, "You said it was Lala who did this?"

  Moni nodded her head obediently, and gestured with her hands: "Pull it so suddenly, and then use one hand to press that big wolf onto the ground. Originally, it wanted to shoot at the big wolf, but it missed. In the end, Lara took it with her. "

  After saying that, Moni lowered her head a
nd said: "I'm sorry, zero. You gave me Lara, and I... "

  Zero put his hand on her head and said, "It's not your fault."

  Moni had already described the entire process of the white wolf's appearance and departure to him. Several details caught Zero's attention. One was the defensive force field that was different from that of the other wolves, while the other was the cold mist that had frozen Lara instantly. At the place where Lala was frozen, Zero could see hexagonal crystals on the ground. That was the sign of extremely low temperatures.

  No matter from what angle it was viewed from, this white wolf that was blabbering away was not simple at all. But Lala's situation was even more surprising to Zero. This young Gold Devourer beast he had discovered underground had followed him for several months, but he had no idea that Lala actually possessed such potential.

  From Moni's description, she seemed to have completed the process in an instant. Furthermore, Lala possessed an extremely powerful attack ability. This could be seen from the fact that she was able to defeat the wolf in a single strike, as well as the fact that the energy rays emitted from her body were extremely corrosive. Lala was a new life form that the Gold Devourer had evolved into, and its ability far exceeded that of its predecessors. This was the meaning of life's evolution.

  The biggest possibility for the wolf to talk away was to eat it and improve its genes. But now that the wolf pack had retreated, the giant wolf was nowhere to be seen. To save Lara, they had to find the wolves first. Su Ling thought about George, maybe this officer of the Phoenix City could help him.

  "You stay here with Camber's men. I'll go and save Lara. You just have to protect yourself. " He pulled out a black duffel bag from under the bed. He unzipped the zipper and took out the Colt and a few rounds of ammunition.
