Barrett Walker's confidence swelled infinitely! He was determined to hunt down one of the ten terrifying monsters, the Divine Dragon. However, in the end, he gave up, showing self-awareness. Even three years later, when a few people truly became snipers, he didn't dare to go looking for trouble with them alone.
Satisfied with his ranking on the leaderboard, he had already reached third place. The forum was surely in chaos now! Who could blame him for being so remarkable? However, after a while, his ranking began to plummet violently, and the changes ahead were truly too fierce.
However, he could see the first position, always held by someone known as the 'Nine-Winged Archangel'. Barrett Walker was slightly bewildered. Wasn't this person a sharpshooter from a previous life? He could even be considered a gun god. Barrett Walker had come across some information about him. This person was a versatile talent, with impressive knife skills. He had once battled a group of mutant sand wolves solely with a knife, successfully killing them all. It was imaginable that a group of mutant sand wolves was even more difficult to deal with than a group of mutant mammoths.
What surprised Barrett Walker was that this person was also from the War God Academy. He wasn't sure which specific academy, but he needed to meet him properly.
Although the Cloud Dream Marsh was home to ten terrifying divine beasts and monsters, they rarely fought each other. It was unclear whether this was a system setting or if they had some agreement to peacefully guard their respective territories. Among the ten terrifying monsters, their individual combat power was much lower than that of the ten divine beasts, and the difference between them was also enormous.
The White-Backed Sand Wolf King was included among the ten terrifying monsters not because of its combat power, but because of its terrifying influence. Wolves were vengeful beasts, and if you didn't provoke them, they would still provoke you. The most terrifying thing in the Cloud Dream Marsh was this group of vengeful and swimming wolf pups.
The person known as the 'Nine-Winged Archangel' was not a dashing gentleman or an heir to a wealthy family. He was a true loser, who simply felt that this name was impressive and powerful. He was a student of the Spiritual Academy, hailing from a famous slum in the Federation. He had extraordinary talent and entering the Second World was like a fish entering the sea. Especially when it came to killing these groups of sand wolves, his techniques were flawless. However, if Barrett Walker were here, he would know that he had made a grave mistake, daring to cause trouble in the wolves' territory.
Sure enough, now he was being chased by a large group of mutant sand wolves, running around like a dog, panting with his tongue hanging out, completely forgetting the breathing technique taught at the War God Academy.
"Why are they chasing me?" As he ran and fought back, these sand wolves were just too cunning and vicious, creating a situation of no end to the chase. But was it really necessary to send hundreds or even thousands to chase one person?
The mutant sand wolves behind him were thoroughly provoked, and even the White-Backed Sand Wolf King had joined the chase. It wasn't because they held a grudge, but because he had intruded into the wolves' territory and dared to cause mayhem within it. If he wasn't stopped, it was likely that this wolf pack would never find peace again!
Luck and talent had made the Nine-Winged Archangel famous, but this was also a test. If he was killed, he would be disqualified from the leaderboard and have to start over. Moreover, if he missed this chance, when the Cloud Mist Marsh officially opened, his competition would be the entire Federation. It was imaginable how slim his chances of becoming famous would be then.
At this moment, he had no interest in checking how many enemies he had killed on the leaderboard, nor how far behind the second place was. However, just because he wasn't looking didn't mean that the idle people wouldn't. At this moment, there was a camp, which had temporarily become a resting place. The mist was quite thin here, on a chaotic stone beach, with a stream flowing through cracks in the rocks. The place was filled with resting people, but each sat separately, never disturbing each other.

There were many people from the Mecha Department here, and also a lot of girls. They parked their mechas to one side, and a few girls were giggling and chatting, leaving the nearby boys feeling very excited. However, once they left here, they would have to fight each other.
The deans of several academies personally led the team this time, sitting in the center, each sitting cross-legged with closed eyes to rest. No one dared to disturb them, as they sat like statues.
"Which academy do you think the Nine-winged Archangel is from? So powerful, with increasing kill counts, but we don't know what he's killing. The numbers keep rising, throwing the others into the background of the second world."
"It should be the Rifle Academy! Only those who use guns can kill those fierce beasts! Only they can establish their position early in the game! But they still lack something."
"The Combat Department is still the best. Even when the bullets run out, they have many geniuses. There's Barren, there's Daven Green, there's Monica. They all seem to be at the rank of a captain!"
"Even though the Combat Department has always been the leader!"
"Have you considered the Mecha Department?"
"Pff! What's so great about the Mecha Department? They all just operate heavy mechas, they won't be the main force of the future world! Besides, look at the Mecha Department now, they only recruit beautiful women! They have no combat effectiveness!"
"Can't deny that, that's the real combat effectiveness! The kind that paralyzes you."
Suddenly, a group of wolves started to joke and play around, throwing grass and stones, showing that you never know what's on the minds of these immature men.
"Shh! Quiet, listen to that sound."
"It's the sound of hurried footsteps!"
Someone clapped on a large rock, and everyone in the camp suddenly fell silent, as if waiting for something important to happen.
Ang Lee was the first to open his eyes, as if he knew what was coming. However, instead of getting up to alert the resting students, he pulled out a remote control-like device and pressed a button. Suddenly, a blue light shield appeared around the deans.
The Nine-winged Archangel ran out of the woods and immediately saw a small stream ahead. He looked a little disappointed at first, but when he saw the crowd on the rocky beach, his disappointment turned into excitement. Without hesitation, he ran towards them.
Following him was the White-backed Sand Wolf King, which was much larger than the ordinary sand wolves. Its eyes sparkled with a green light, like two large brass bells, and it gave a roar that was answered by a tsunami-like howl from the countless mutant sand wolves behind it.
From a bird's-eye view, this scene was shocking, possibly unforgettable. The howl of the White-backed Sand Wolf King caused the countless mutant sand wolves behind it to stop and roar, shaking the sky. The howls converged into a tsunami-like sound.
"Oh my God! Isn't that the Nine-winged Archangel? How did he end up here, and what's that monster?"
"Stop talking and run! This thing is too terrifying, that's the White-backed Sand Wolf King!"
The howl was like a call to attack, and a gray ocean suddenly rushed out of the woods, heading towards the chaotic beach. Swearing and gunshots filled the air, and some people started running.
"The Nine-winged Archangel is not human, he's leading the wolf pack. It's not human, it's not human."
The forum was filled with angry curses directed at the Nine-winged Archangel, making it the center of attention.
They couldn't stop it, and they didn't dare to. The frenzied sand wolves were relentless, bringing disaster to the people here, causing heavy casualties. But the deans, surrounded by the blue light shield, sat calmly as if it had nothing to do with them.
"Get into the mechas! We just encountered a herd of mutant mammoths, and now we're facing this deranged pack of sand wolves. Hurry up and move!"
The girls from the Mecha Department shouted as they ran with their mechas, seemingly forgetting the purpose of the mechas.
"Stay steady, do not panic! Otherwise, none of us will escape!" Alice, as the appointed leader of this small team, had the responsibility to safely lead them out. Suddenly, a dozen sand wolves surrounded her, and she felt anxious as she pressed the button of the machine gun and began to fire. The dancing tongues of fire were powerful, but few were effective.
"Captain! What do we do? We are surrounded, they are too agile." Maneuvering the mecha in a frenzy, from initially knocking down a few, to now they were evading with agility, it was all in vain!
The entire resting area, not just them, faced with such a fierce onslaught of beasts, each one felt powerless, what was this all about!
