Chapter 209 Hope in Abyss. Part-2.
On that day, the demon hounds launched a full-scale attack on the dark werewolf tribe that had previously escaped from their grasp.
Demons are sadistic and persistent creatures, if their prey escapes from their grasp it makes them extremely angry and crazy, and they will go to any lengths to pursue that prey again and again.
There is only one way to escape from the pursuit of a demon, either die yourself or kill the pursuing demon some way or other. Only in this way can you get rid of the pursuit of these crazy demons.
The dark werewolf tribe had escaped the grasp of the demon hounds, thus it made them go crazy.
The demon hound pack searched for the werewolf tribe for quite a few months before finally finding them in the southernmost region.
After finding the dark werewolf tribe's location, the demon hound pack gathered all of its members and launched a head-on attack to hunt down every single werewolf that had escaped previously.
...
The young werewolf was luckily much farther away from the battlefield's center.
She was staring at the geography with great curiosity as usual when the attack happened.
Under the heavy snowfall, the werewolves fought long and hard against the offensive of the demon hounds, but they were eventually outnumbered.
Demon hounds are much weaker individually, thus dozens of demon hounds were killed in just a few minutes of confrontation, but the werewolves were still not in a good situation.
Their numbers were too low and they were surrounded from each side, thus there was nowhere to run.
The young werewolf had a higher intelligence than the others, she didn't rush head-on into the fight like the others.
She observed for a while and she immediately figured out that it was pointless to fight head-on.
They were at a great disadvantage when it came to numbers.
If all of the werewolves had cooperated and rushed out of the encirclement of the hounds from the start with combined momentum, it would have been possible to live another day.
But there's no way that demons could cooperate with each other so easily.
In the past few months, the young werewolf had already figured out the fact that it was impossible for her to make these stubborn guys cooperate, thus she didn't even think about asking them for it.
She immediately retreated from the area once she noticed that the situation was not in their favor.
But it was easier said than done.
Demon hounds have an excellent sense of smell, they can smell the prey from kilometers away, and it's a difficult task to escape from their tracking ability.
When she tried to retreat, some of the demon hounds immediately noticed her retreating figure and chased after her crazily. While barking fiercely they pursued her at full speed on the snow-covered area.
Even though the demon hounds pursued her relentlessly, she was not fazed by it at all, with her sharp mind, she used the geographical advantage to make quite a bit of distance between them.
'I will be able to escape!'
Just when this thought came into her excited mind, she was suddenly struck by a massive thunderbolt from the sky.
The thunderbolt was not strong enough to instantly kill her but it was strong enough to make her consciousness blur by a lot.
The young werewolf howled in pain for the first time.
Even when she went on regular food-hunting missions, she had never been so severely injured before. This was the first time she was feeling so much pain all over her body.
With her blurred eyesight, she noticed a much larger demon hound with bat wings flying in the sky right above her head.
While ignoring all concerns, she glanced at the structure of the cave with great curiosity.
Her curiosity won over her instinct of survival and she didn't even care about her life as long as she was able to satisfy her own curiosity.
(If she was born in the human race, she would have been considered a 'once-in-a-century genius' researcher...)
*Step*
With her own footsteps ringing in her ears again and again, she felt more and more excited as she continued to walk further.
Finally, she saw the light shining from the opening on the other end.
But that was not what captured her attention.
Her eyes stared at an extremely handsome-looking demon sitting right beside the cave exit, with shock and excitement.
The handsome demon was the same height as her, a large spear lay beside him and he seemed to recover from his injuries.
Blood flowed from the large wound on his stomach as he sat with the support of the cave's wall.
His eyes closed tightly and his dark black armor shined in the sunlight.
That amazing sight made the young werewolf feel excited all over.
She had no idea who this demon was or what had injured him so badly, but only one thought came into her head at that moment.
'I must help him...'
With that though, she moved forward with a determined look on her face.
She carefully laid him down and removed his chest armor. She tore apart a large part of his cape and used it to bind his wound tightly.
The young werewolf was extremely intelligent, she discovered this method of stopping the blood on her own, without the help of anyone.
Then she waited for the other part to wake up, a smile appeared on her face, she seemed to be quite satisfied with herself at the moment.
Being able to express her own emotions with so many facial expressions... even though this was quite a difficult task for the demon race she did it easily... perhaps this is what made her an 'Exception'.
