A Man Like None Other Chapter 2522

The Demon Wolves’ territory was located in the deeper parts of the area, and Ali and the others were engaged in a bloody battle with the Demon Wolves. Many of the Demon Wolves had died, but more were waiting to pounce at them.

Ali’s group was not unscathed, of course. As they fought on, they were slowly making their retreat. However, it would only be a matter of time before the sheer number of Demon Wolves overwhelmed and killed them.

Nevertheless, the leader of the Demon Wolves did not seem keen to kill Ali’s group that quickly. All the Demon Wolves did was surround them, forcing them to move further into the mountains.

If the Demon Wolves wanted Ali’s group dead, they merely needed to lunge at them together. Yet, the leader of the Demon Wolves did not do that. It only sent two of its pack to attack Ali’s group. “I’m so sorry. I’m the reason you’re in this situation. If we hadn’t run here, we might have survived…”

Ali was devastated to see the rest of his party exhausted and covered in blood. If he had not led them into the Demon Wolves’ territory to avoid Cyan Village’s villagers’ chase, they would not have ended up in this state.

The villages from Cyan Village would likely not have killed them all, but the same could not be said about the Demon Wolves. “Ali, we don’t blame you for this. If this is our fate, we might as well go all out against these Demon Wolves!” one of the Rock Village’s villagers declared.

“Ali, you’ve already done well. You were doing this for our sake, and none of us will blame you for this. I just feel bad that the people in Rock Village will have a tougher life after our deaths” said one of the elderly villagers from Rock Village.

“I’m not scared of dying, but what will my grandma do after I die? Her eyes aren’t cured yet…” Emily was crestfallen. Death was not something she feared, but she was worried that no one would take care of Ira. “Percy has gone back to the village. Maybe he’ll come back with Mr. Antonio to save us,” said someone who was more optimistic than the others.

“That’s impossible. We’re far from Rock Village. Even if Mr. Antonio does lead the villagers here to save us, I’m afraid they won’t be a match for these Demon Wolves either. I’d rather be killed by the Demon Wolves now than have more people die here with us in an attempt to save us!” an elderly villager from Rock Village uttered. At that very moment, feelings of despair spread among the group.

“Let’s do our best to fight them off. We can’t keep moving further and further into the mountains. If they’re trying to drive us into that area, that area might be their den. We can’t retreat anymore. Charge!” Ali cried out, lifting his weapon. The others nodded in agreement as they tightened their grip on their weapons. By then, they, too, had figured out the wolves’ intentions.

“Charge!”

With a loud cry, Ali rushed toward the wolves. “Charge!” The rest of the villagers dashed forward as well. At the peak of their despair, they unleashed all the power they had.

Awoo! At the sight of the charging humans, one of the Demon Wolves went straight after Ali, who was at the frontmost.

Whoosh! Just as the Demon Wolf was about to reach Ali, a sudden arrow shot out from the side, piercing the creature’s neck with astonishing force. The impact of the arrow sent the Demon Wolf hurtling sideways before it was firmly pinned against a tree.

The unexpected intervention had Ali’s group pausing for half a second. Even the Demon Wolves turned their heads, sensing the scent of danger in the air.

“Jared, y-you’re amazing!” Percy exclaimed as he stared at the Demon Wolf pinned against the tree. At that moment, Jared was holding Percy’s bow. As it turned out, he was the one who fired the arrow earlier.

Alas, Percy’s bow was an ordinary weapon. If Jared had recovered his strength and taken out the Divine Bow, he would have wiped out at least half of the Demon Wolves present with just one shot.

“Jared…”

“Jared!”

When Ali and Emily saw Jared and Percy, shock crossed their faces, and they yelled his name.
