Fairy tale: Little Red Riding Hood's wolf mentor

A mournful bugle call echoed within the ranks of the Boron army.

All the Boron soldiers ceased their battle with the giants; they had lost this battle. Everyone facing Seven's armored giant felt a profound sense of powerlessness.

"Flee, flee, you incompetent compatriots! You who regard wisdom as deceit, now… experience the power of deceit!"

Each swing of the armored giant's sword brought with it a flash of blood.

However, it did not pursue, but under Seven's command, it walked step by step towards the city. Many Boron soldiers had not yet left, and now, the last exit was blocked by Seven's ninth giant.

"All who underestimated me will pay the price for it."

As Seven spoke, the giant beneath him raised its hand, grasped a magic-breaking steel crossbow bolt shot from afar, and with force, slowly bent it and threw it to the ground.

He looked down at one side, at his own bounty on the wall, his words filled with mockery.

"Raymond, destroy that heavy crossbow."

Seven's armored giant, Raymond, ignored the soldiers in front of him and walked towards the direction of the giant crossbow.

Unlike ordinary giants, under Seven Dale's command, Raymond would not be lured by the Boron soldiers' misdirection.

Seven understood that the real threats to the giants in this city were those dozen or so 'Giant Slayers'.

When all the 'Giant Slayers' were destroyed,

all the remaining Boron soldiers would truly face—the slaughter from the giants!

"As for those who want to escape back to the capital… your route isn't so safe."

Watching the giant beneath him crush the huge crossbow with one foot,

Seven took out a slender, conical object from his bosom. He tapped it lightly, the tiny vibrations distorting his voice into a special tone…

At the same time, the armored giant beneath him.

also raised its head and howled loudly in the same rhythm!

In various parts of the city, the echoing of seven giants also sounded one after another, as if carrying… some kind of ancient rhythm.

…

Outside the city, near the edge, on the road leading to the Boron capital.

A panicked crowd, mixed with Boron soldiers who were also fleeing.

"Poro, tell me… why is that person named Seven doing such a thing?"

"I don't know, but no matter what he has experienced, what he is doing now is a bit too much—there is no doubt about that!"

This was also the first time Poro had seen such a large-scale massacre of civilians.

He couldn't describe his current state of mind. He looked at the other disaster victims around him, as well as the Boron soldiers. All of their faces were filled with sadness and bewildered fear.

He only hoped… that the Boron capital's army could stop this giant-composed legion.

But at that moment, everyone seemed to hear the distorted roar of a giant coming from the city, and one of the sound sources—was incredibly close!

And it seemed… right above their heads!

"The sound of a giant—"

Immediately, a violent tremor began to spread in all directions from the city wall next to them.

The sound of bricks breaking came from above. Everyone looked up, their livers and galls trembling!

A giant's head protruded from inside the city wall. He looked at the humans who had begun to flee below, his scarlet tongue licking his blood-streaked teeth, and then he jumped down!

"Boom!"

The tremendous vibration made it difficult for most people to even stand. Some of those who were close by were caught off guard and sent flying. The giant raised his hand and grabbed one person, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them, and after a few seconds, spat out a pile of broken remains!

The crowd instantly began to collapse, except for… those few Boron soldiers.

"Hold this guy back for a while, let the civilians scatter first."

The leading officer took a deep breath and said.

"Yes."

Without hesitation or argument, the other seven Boron soldiers, still on horseback, began to surround the suddenly appearing giant!

They shouted and circled around the giant.

The arrows in their hands shot out—but these weak and powerless attacks were extremely difficult to cause damage to the giant!

Not to mention… this Boron remnant army was already exhausted from the previous battle with the armored giant!

And the energy of the giant in front of them was still vigorous.

A pillar-like foot lightly kicked out—sending three cavalrymen who couldn't dodge flying out. Then he reached out and grabbed, and two cavalrymen were instantly crushed into thin blood and flesh.

The remaining officer and two cavalrymen looked horrified. They trembled, shooting their arrows at the giant in front of them.

But their strength was exhausted, and the arrows shot at the giant's body, which was harder than rock…

but lay down powerlessly.

And in the moment before the giant rushed into the crowd, Poro and Lake had already keenly fled to a distance.

The time that the Boron soldiers fought with the giant was enough for them to escape to a place beyond the giant's reach.

But at that moment, Lake listened to the screams of those Boron soldiers behind her…

Her expression suddenly dimmed, and she said:

"Poro, aren't we being a little bad by doing this?"

"Are you talking about the direction? It doesn't matter, as long as we take a detour, we can still get to the capital…"

"I mean, those soldiers are using their lives to hold back the giant for others. I don't want to—just leave the Boron Kingdom as if nothing happened."

Poro was silent for a moment when he heard this. He understood what Lake wanted to say, "You mean…"

"Although our current strength is not enough, I want to try…"

Lake's hand under her cloak gripped the silver dagger at her waist, and she raised her eyes, revealing a hint of determination: "At least, go kill—this ordinary giant!"

"Okay."

Poro smiled, a wisp of purple light flashing in his eyes, "Then let's give it a try!"

Beside them, the old soldier Invi also stopped his horse. He looked at Poro and Lake, his somewhat gray eyebrows raised slightly, and he drew out his saber from his waist:

"It seems you've made a decision, then let me help."

"Thank you, Mr. Invi."

Lake's eyes lit up.

"No need to thank me. Before being corrupted by the 'Wild Dancer', Dans would have wanted me to do such a thing."

The old soldier patted Dans's head gently with a gentle expression, telling her to wait in place with the horse.

Dans didn't speak, revealing a sweet smile.

But Poro sensed the energy from the Wild Dancer in this 'former princess' body, knowing that she wasn't as simple as she looked. Ordinary people couldn't hurt her at all.

"I haven't done something like this in a long time."

As the old soldier spoke, he raised his hand and made an opening motion in the air. Immediately, his body disappeared into the air.

In the distance, several Boron soldiers, who were already exhausted, were unable to effectively delay the giant's advance.

In an instant, another soldier was trampled underfoot.

And the giant, grabbed one of the soldiers and put him in his mouth, biting off half of his head in one bite!

The remaining officer had also lost his life.

His quiver was already empty. He threw away the longbow in his hand, drew out the saber from his waist, his eyes wide, and shouted as he rushed up!

But in the giant's eyes, there was an undisguised expression of a cat playing with a mouse.

A huge hand pressed down from the sky—

But at that moment, a figure flashed out of thin air, pushing away the Boron officer who was already resigned to death, and then rolled away by borrowing strength.

"Boom!"

The giant's palm struck the ground, forming a depression in the palm.

But this strike, was empty!

"You big guy like you is really good-looking but useless! You can even… miss like that?"

The old soldier said loudly.

The giant could understand human words, and could even understand some common sentences.

And provocation has always been something that Boron soldiers would often do.

And the old soldier Invi, obviously knew this too!

As soon as these words came out, a trace of thought flashed in the eyes of the giant in front of him. Then, the huge eyes moved away from the Boron officer and locked tightly on the old soldier!

"Roar!"

The giant let out an earth-shattering roar and stomped towards the old soldier!

But the old soldier's figure seemed erratic. He rolled, each time, only a hair's breadth away from death!

Seeing this, the giant became even more furious. He began to lower his body, using his hands and feet to slap the old soldier!

"Boom—Boom—"

After another slap, the giant saw that the annoying little man in front of him was gone, revealing a satisfied smile.

But lifting his palm, he found that there was no flesh and blood below as he had expected.

"Why is that?"

The giant was a little puzzled. He lowered his body, opened his eyes wide, wanting to find the little man's trace.

Did he get into the cracks of his fingers?

He stretched his head to the ground, wanting to take a closer look to see if he was buried by the dust.

But just when his eyes were extremely close to the ground—

In front of the eyes that were originally empty, a runic arrow of a Boron soldier, shot out of thin air!

Without the slightest sign, it hit the surface of the giant's eyeball!

"Roar!"

In an instant, the giant's eyes hurt!

Although this hair-like small needle, could not cause any damage to the giant's body, being hit by an arrow at almost touching distance was still enough to cause no small damage to the eyeball!

The giant shouted and covered his suddenly blinded eyes with one hand, his body became somewhat unbalanced in the chaos—

And at this time, at the giant's Achilles tendon…

a black shadow appeared.

In Poro's dark green vertical pupils, a fierce glare!

A piece of huge magic was born out of thin air, instantly impacting the giant!

This was also the magic from the Queen, that is… the spell that the Queen used to shatter the magic-forbidden armor on Lake's body.

Compared to other complex spells, it seemed much simpler.

But Poro was now doing his best, and could only produce a slight effect of shaking the giant.

If it were in the past, such… a force that would only make the giant feel pushed, would not have any impact, but at this moment, when the giant was caught off guard and unsteady—

it made the giant's tall figure, tilted, and fell heavily to the ground!

The giant covered his eyes with one hand, trying to struggle to get up.

But Lake, had already crossed to the giant's neck, she held the steel crossbow arrow of the 'Giant Slayer' that she had picked up earlier, and recited some incantations in her mouth.

The length of that crossbow arrow was almost like a spear—

Between the chanting of the spell, the crossbow arrow burst out with dazzling brilliance, cutting through the giant's skin and piercing into it!

This kind of spell, has already been lost even in the Boron Kingdom.

Perhaps now, only in the notes obtained by the Queen through the magic mirror, there is a record—a spell that fully stimulates the power of the crossbow arrow's inscription.

And the price, is the complete destruction of the crossbow arrow!

After the steel crossbow arrow pierced into the giant's neck, it was annihilated into ashes in the magic light, but even so, the giant still did not die.

He cried out in pain, his body struggling and rolling.

The incantation in Lake's mouth, also did not stop—

She pulled out the Boron Prince's long sword, which was covered with cloth at her waist, and the runes on the sword's body, also had brilliance shining through.

Lake also burned the inscription of this long sword!

The brilliance extended rapidly, condensing a narrow black light on the outside of the sword body. Lake followed the gap pierced by the crossbow arrow in the giant's neck, and stabbed the sword straight in—

In an instant, the giant's blood, gushed out like a real fountain!

It straightened its body, but could no longer support its heavy body, and fell heavily.

"Boom—"

The smoke and clouds fell, and the earth's tremor, began to gradually subside.
