System vs Rebirth Chapter 160 Bad Situation

Chapter 160 Bad Situation

Noel was heading straight to the mushroom demon's direction while maintaining a close look to his surrounding. The mushroom demon had the ability to create another Advanced Level Demon, so if he wasn't careful, he might be killed without a chance to fight back.

'As expected, there are more and more information that I can dig up from Anna. Even when I thought she didn't have that much information, she could still give me more than I could imagine. How much knowledge does she have? She is still at my age, but her power, her knowledge, and her actions are more than mine.

'In fact, I wonder if she's actually an old woman disguised as a young girl.' Noel narrowed his eyes. All Anna had was impossible to have by a 15 years old girl, even if she was an extraordinary genius. It felt like she had a secret even more extraordinary than one could think.

'Hmm? I have known about the spirit ranks… Looking at this, it seems that Anna has a Humanoid Rank Spirit, a level above Heisk, my Ice Spirit. Can they provide knowledge like this?' Noel had a question in his mind, but it was impossible to ask now.

It seemed that after being cornered, the mushroom demon approached everything head-on.

Noel stopped abruptly when he felt a demon presence within his range.

"One, no two demons." Noel squinted his eyes and tried to find the demon in his range. Unfortunately, he could only see one demon with the other being hidden behind a tree.

The demon in front of him was a wolf.

'Is this place a wolf habitat?' Noel felt something was wrong. A wolf wasn't supposed to come here, yet he could find an Advanced Level Demon. It was clear that it was a normal wolf transformed into an Advanced Level Demon. 'Something doesn't match up. How does a wolf appear here?'

"Aoooo!" Noel had so many questions in his mind, but the wolf didn't let him. The wolf demon howled and started rus.h.i.+ng toward him.

"So fast?" He was stunned, never expecting that the wolf could cover forty meters in just three seconds.

Luckily, his instinct managed to react within those three seconds. He raised his sword and swung it horizontally, trying to strike the wolf's fangs.

But it was at this time, the wolf's body glowed. The blue light was clearly Spiritual Energy. And as expected, the wolf suddenly increased its speed.

"!!!" Noel hurriedly spun his body as the wolf had looped around him in an instant.

Swift Strike.

*Cling!*

The clicking sound between the metal and the wolf's fangs echoed in the forest. Noel was overwhelmed by its speed that his strike didn't contain that much power. He had fought many demons from the one with overwhelming strength to one with impenetrable defense. But the one with speed was the most troublesome.

The demon could easily launch a sneak attack or outrun him. And the Advanced Level Demon had overcome all its weaknesses like having a light and brittle skin or lacking in Spiritual Energy.

In other words, this Advanced Level Demon might be the most dangerous monster he could face so far.

'Huft…' Noel took a deep breath, knowing that he couldn't kill the demon with this monster standing on its way.

The wolf stepped back and looped around again, trying to take Noel out from an unexpected angle.

However, Noel had one thing that could stop the demon. He summoned a rune and pointed it at the wolf. "Chain Bind Rune."

The wolf saw those chains and swiftly dodged them.

As expected, the chains were far too slow to catch the demons. However, it didn't stop Noel from using the rune.

Everytime the wolf avoided the chains, the latter continued its trajectory and ended up catching a tree.

"Tsk. Go again." Noel summoned another Chain Bind Rune to catch the wolf but to no avail.

The wolf seemed to be looking at him smugly as if he had won. And to repay what Noel had done, the wolf rushed to him and tried to rip apart Noel's head.n(0)vel(b)(j)(n)served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l-B1n.

Noel used his sword to strike the wolf's fangs again, but he felt something different from this charge. If the previous attack came from a loop, which lack momentum, this attack had all the momentum it needed.

When Noel struck the fangs, the momentum pushed him back until he fell down to the ground.

"Kh." Noel was lying down on the ground while trying to stop the wolf with all his strength. He surely didn't want to be the wolf's breakfast.

Noel gathered his Spiritual Energy in his foot and kicked the wolf from below.

*Bam!*

He used the control from the Master Blacksmith and the Four Points Circulation, so the power in it was enough to blow the wolf into the air.

As soon as the wolf was in the air, he pointed his palm at the wolf. Another Chain Bind Rune appeared, shooting out chains to catch the wolf.

"Aooo!" The wolf howled, but during that time, he was gathering Spiritual Energy in his mouth. The moment it stopped howling, the wolf shot out a powerful beam from its mouth to blast both the chains and Noel.

Spiritual Energy Dispersion Rune.

Noel activated this rune in order to be his s.h.i.+eld, dispersing the Spiritual Energy into the surroundings.

As expected, the beam was dispersed and began destroying the area. However, the Rune started to crack, showing that it couldn't handle the immense Spiritual Energy.

Noel hurriedly used his Freezing Crystal to freeze the remaining Spiritual Energy before shattering it to get another clear vision of the wolf.

Unfortunately, the wolf took that opportunity to land on the ground and start moving around.

"So, this is the true Advanced Level Demon. Its strength are far different from that mushroom… I guess the mushroom's strength is in mind control that can mobilize many demons while this wolf is the most powerful in one-on-one fight."

Noel a.s.sessed the situation while gritting his teeth. It took his all just to hold back the wolf's attacks, so he might die if he didn't do anything in the next few minutes.

"What should I do?" He squinted his eyes, examining what kind of plans could work against the wolf.
