"ROAR!"
The Wind Wolf leader charged towards Alex at a fast speed.
As a leader, this Wind Wolf of course has higher stats than normal Wind Wolf.
If you compare it with a normal level 10 Wind Wolf, its stats will at least be doubled.
Monsters are not like humans, they are not able to distribute attribute points.
Their stats only grow naturally along with the path of their species.
This increase in stats is also the most optimal distribution accordingly.
Because of that, their stats always lean towards the advantage of their race just like this wind wolf.
That's why right now, the Wind Wolf leader's speed was unbelievably fast.
Even for Alex, it's hard to see the Wind Wolf leader clearly with his naked eyes.
Feeling the threat that the charging Wind Wolf leader brings to him, Alex focused all his thoughts on it.
Then, with his thought, he casted his skill.
"[Monster Manipulation]!"
When the skill hit the Wind Wolf leader, it's movement seems to slow down a little.
However, it didn't stop its feet and continued rushing forward.
At the same time, Alex felt some resistance from the Wind Wolf leader.
"Kukh! This… this is harder than I expected!"
Pushing more of his will into the Wind Wolf leader's mind, its speed became slower once again!
Feeling that the human was doing something to its brain, the Wind Wolf leader's face grew worse.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt showed its sharp fangs and looked at Alex with hatred.
"Grrrr!"
Alex felt it, even though he was already giving it his all, it's still not enough.
He needs something more to overpower the Wind Wolf leader and take over its mind!
"Tsk, what the hell should I do?"
Alex said with a heavy frown on his face.
The Wind Wolf leader got closer and closer the longer time passed.
Just as Alex was thinking hard, a few new notifications suddenly appeared in his eyes.
[You killed a level 4 Wind Wolf, +20 experience points.]
[You killed a level 4 Wind Wolf, +20 experience points.]
[Congratulations, you leveled up!]
[You got 20 Free Attributes.]
[You got 10 Skill Points.]
[You killed a level 5 Wind Wolf, +40 experience points.]
[You killed a level 6 Wind Wolf, +70 experience points.]
…
The consecutive notifications surprised Alex for a moment.
But when he saw that he leveled up, an ecstatic look appeared on his face.
"What the hell?!"
"Am I so lucky?!"
"I was just thinking about what I should do and my level increased!"
Taking a peek at the four bleeding controlled wind wolves on the side, Alex saw that they were already dead at this time.
'It's all thanks to you four!'
Alex thought and silently thanked them in his heart for giving him their experience points.
Then, Alex hurriedly added the 20 attribute points into intelligence.
Once he did that, he looked at the Wind Wolf leader who's already closing in with a smile on his face.
"You're such an unlucky wolf, it's time to end this now!"
"[Monster Manipulation]!"
Boom!
The Wind Wolf leader's resistance against Alex's control instantly crumbled in the face of overwhelming stats!
As that happened, the Wind Wolf leader lost its control over itself and Alex immediately took over.
Then, he immediately executed an order at it.
"Stop!"
When Alex's voice died down, the Wind Wolf leader stopped its charge.
Looking at the huge face of the Wind Wolf leader that's just inches away from him, Alex felt cold sweat run down his back.
He retreated a few steps before heaving a sigh of relief.
"Phew~ that was a close one. I didn't expect that I would immediately encounter a strong monster minutes after entering the forest."
Thinking of this, Alex sighed for the second time.
Alex decided to rest since that fight exhausted him a little.
Even though he didn't seem to be doing anything in the back, he was still controlling all the monsters under the [Monster Manipulation] skill.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat's more, just that struggle with the Wind Wolf leader for control was also a really tiring thing to do mentally.
Anyway, Alex went to a nearby tree, sat down with his back leaning on it and closed his eyes.
After he got enough rest, Alex stood back up and went to the monster carcasses.
Looking at it, Alex can't help but mutter, "If this was inside the dungeon, the body would have already disappeared leaving only the drops."
In a dungeon, when you kill a monster, items will drop while the body of the monster will disappear.
A wide variety of items can be dropped from monsters in a dungeon.
There are potions, weapons, armor, items, skill books, etc.
This is the loot of those who venture the dungeons and also the reason why they do so.
Meanwhile, outside the dungeon like here in Black Forest, if monsters are killed, they will just die normally and you can take their carcasses.
Then you can dismantle it and take the useful items like skin, fangs, bones, meat, etc.
However, dismantling is really not Alex's thing and he never even planned to do such a thing.
That's because all of these are going to be used for [Sacrifice].
"I should gather all the corpses in one place first so that I don't have to cast [Sacrifice] repeatedly."
Saying, Alex first went to the body of the pair of goblin and wind wolf that's been torn into tatters by the Wind Wolf leader.
Seeing just how much those two got ruined by the Wind Wolf leader, Alex can't help but think back to that scene when it was roaring at him wildly while charging.
"Hais, I'm glad I leveled up just on time. If not, I would probably be dog food by now." Alex said while sighing.
After Alex dragged every monster corpse in one place, he stretched out his hand and casted his skill.
"[Sacrifice]!"
Immediately, light lit up from those 11 corpses before they magically disappeared.
Along with their disappearance, notifications sounded in Alex's head.
[You used 'Sacrifice', you earned 55 attribute points.]
