Chapter 5 Cunning Killer
Rishi had read The Bestiary and learned everything there was to know about horned wolves. He was well aware that horned wolves excel at group combat.
He also knew that the horned wolves\' weakness is their low defense, and their strength was their agility. He initially ignored the other wolves and charged directly at their leader, prompting the other wolves to move toward their leader to protect him.
When Rishi saw this, he smiled. He then passed by a wolf and completely ignored him. He kept rushing towards their leader.
As other wolves gathered around their leader, they panicked and used all their strength to protect him.
Rishi smirked and leaped back with all his might, then turned and slashed the wolf\'s neck behind him. The wolf was surprised and perplexed when he noticed their prey shift his target from the pack leader to him. Before the wolf could comprehend what was happening, a bloody wound appeared around its neck, and its body fell to the ground.
Rishi\'s cunning plan has already taken down one of the wolves after only five seconds. The other wolves became enraged and charged at him with all their might, howling angrily.
\'Aoooooo\'
He said, "Oh Shit," and ran to save his life, a fearful expression on his face, but as he turned around, a smirk reappeared. He could execute this plan flawlessly due to his passive enhanced focus.
\'Everything is going according to plan,\' he thought to himself. He ran for a few seconds before turning around and attacking the leader of the wolves again.
The wolves were taken aback, but the wolves\' leader charged Rishi to exact revenge for his companion. They traded blows as the wolf\'s claw landed on Rishi\'s hand, and his sword slashed the wolf\'s front leg, turning him into a sitting duck.
Rishi was about to celebrate when the remaining three wolves attacked him. With a few injuries all over his body, Rishi could barely save himself.
He sighed as he moved away from the pack. To protect their leader, the three wolves surround him.
Rishi went after one of the three wolves who were guarding their leader. For a while, he fought with all of the wolves in turns. Then he realized there were only thirty seconds left.
He began playing dirty by using the wolf leader as bait to finish all of them, and just before the time ran out, he pieced his sword through the head of the leader of the horned wolves.
Rishi looked at the timer and smiled when he saw that he had finished the trial.
"I did it," he said, gazing up at the sky and striking the iconic victory pose. He\'d barely finished his celebration when he heard Gaia\'s voice.
[Congratulations on completing your beginner\'s trial, challenger]
[Calculating rewards]
Then, a black book appeared in front of him from within his body. It had a complicated magical rune in the center, and the title "Book of Contracts" was written in blue at the top. Then he heard Gaia\'s voice.
[Please form a connection with the book]
Rishi was aware of the procedure and touched his bleeding hand to the book. It began to shine as soon as it came into contact with Rishi\'s blood.
[Congratulations, challenger, on making a successful connection with the book]
