GBP Chapter 125 Unforgettable Scars
Chapter 125 Unforgettable Scars
A brand new day, the weather was fine and sunny, and the streets returned to their usual order. There was no noise or disputes, and everyone was doing their own thing.
No one paid much attention to what happened last night. Although the ending was not satisfactory, the people did not complain about the hero team. Even the road in front of the Mage Guild was swept exceptionally clean.
"I thought everyone would be talking about last night's actions, but it's strange that it's so quiet?"
Ajiu stood by the guild window and looked out. All she saw was a peaceful scene, without even an excited crowd, which was completely unexpected.
"Because everyone already knows, Ah Jiu, someone leaked the results of the battle last night."
"Huh? Who was so careless! It's still a special period when Bogaru is around, how could someone dare to spread information privately! It can't be one of our people! What are the Wolf Knights up to!"
"Calm down, Ah Jiu. She's neither from the Mage Guild nor the Wolf Knights. It's that woman in white. She saw what happened to us in the suburbs last night."
Zhao Yu spoke with a somber expression, clearly not seeing this as a good thing. Not only had the news spread far and wide among the crowd, but the woman in white was now firmly under the watchful eye of the Wolf Knights. Even the Mage Guild did not know her whereabouts, and her fate was likely grim.
"Then... how should we explain this to everyone? The matter of the team leader, Knight Wolf, and the captain's situation are not good news."
"There's no point in giving any explanation now. The only thing that can change the current situation is to capture that otherworldly monster and completely eliminate the root of everyone's negative emotions."
Zhao Yu's expression turned serious, her brows furrowed and her eyes sharp, firmly suppressing the anger in her heart, turning the restrained anger into a flame that fueled her fearless advance.
Under the bright sunshine and shimmering light, Yongyi Chunjing floated high above the room, projecting a map of the surrounding area. Yaohui gathered everyone together to discuss the next tactics.
“Sean and I compiled combat data about Bogaru last night, and with Zeta’s additional knowledge about Bogaru, I will now tell you about Bogaru’s characteristics and how to counter her.”
Haruki stood in the center of the room, with A-Kyu, Zhao Yu, and members of the Magician's Guild standing by his right. On his left, the representatives of the Wolf Knights appeared, their captain sitting expressionlessly in the center of the knights, meticulously taking notes.
"First is Bogaru's destructive power. Based on my experience fighting him, Bogaru is extremely strong and can easily block or deflect my attacks. Moreover, he is stronger than all of us. Whether it is the Giant of Light or any wolf beast, trying to win by brute force is obviously not a good idea."
Sean recounted his observations, which, combined with his extensive experience in monster research and combat analysis, gave him a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the monster Bogaru.
"But Bogaru is still a monster. His agility is not as good as the Giant of Light, and his mobility is not as good as the four-limbed knight wolf. It is difficult for Bogaru to counter a fast attack, and that is the key to our breakthrough."
We can damage it by using rapid attacks, and once the damage accumulates and slows its movements, that's our chance to finish it off.
After Sean finished his first round of narration, Zeta's projection appeared, and he explained Bogaru's characteristics based on his memories and understanding of Bogaru.
"Sean has already explained the breakthrough point, so now I will explain the difficulties of the operation."
Reaching out, Zeta conjured a barrier displaying his own notes. His feelings of indebtedness to Mebius's guidance, his grief and indignation towards the leader, Wolf Knight, Ice Fang Crocodile, and all the creatures harmed by Bogaru, made Zeta take the next Bogaru subjugation operation extremely seriously.
"Bogaru's attacks mainly rely on her brute strength, tail, beams of light, and wings. Sean has already addressed the issue of brute force; the key is to use skill to win."
Bogaru's tail is extremely flexible and also possesses unknown properties such as electrical conductivity. Although last night's battle resulted in Bogaru escaping with its tail severed, for a monster like it that traverses various worlds, regeneration is only a matter of time. Next time we encounter Bogaru's tail, we must keep our distance and cut it off if we have the chance.
"In terms of light skills, Bogaru has the ability to absorb energy and release destructive energy. In reality, it is not strong and can be easily dodged and blocked. Moreover, when Bogaru absorbs and charges up destructive energy, its body will be in a state of stagnation. As long as you can seize that opportunity, you can severely damage it in one fell swoop."
"Finally, there's Bogaru's wings, which is also the most troublesome problem for the next operation..."
As soon as the question about Bogaru's pair of round wings was raised, a hissing sound came from the notebook in the captain's hand. The suffocating feeling he had experienced last night made the captain's muscles and nerves tense up. He accidentally used too much force, causing the pen tip to draw a long cut on the paper.
"Are you alright, Captain?"
"I'm fine, Mr. Yaohui. You can continue. I might be a little anxious because I haven't rested well. I'll adjust myself and it won't happen again."
Yao Hui's greeting received an urgent response from the captain. The captain did not want to delay everyone's progress because of his own reasons. Now that things had come to this, the captain did not want to make any excuses. He just wanted to quickly face reality.
Looking back at the cut on the paper, the captain felt as if it were a wound on his heart, caused by his recklessness, which had disturbed those around him.
Skipping over the tattered pages and turning to a new one, the captain pressed the torn page underneath, forcing himself to focus.
"Then I will continue. Bogaru's wings are its mouthparts for hunting. The round wings can be attached to its claws to expand and launch attacks or hunt in front. Bogaru's hunting speed is extremely fast, which should not be underestimated. However, the range of its wingspan is limited. As long as you don't confront Bogaru in front of it for a long time, there will be no problem."
After Zeta finished introducing Bogaru's characteristics, Haruki would now instruct everyone present on their tasks, striving for absolute success, which they had to do.
"Ajiu, Zhaoyu, and the guild members, I need you to strengthen the defenses of the anti-energy entity, withstand Bogaru's attack, and prevent it from escaping."
"Understood, leave it to us."
Zhao Yu accepted the order, and the other members nodded in agreement. Their mission was not dangerous, but time was of the essence. No one knew when Bogaru would attack again, and the Mage Guild had to act as quickly as possible.
"Members of the Wolf Knights, I need you to share information about Bogaru with all regions of Wolf Wilds so they can take precautions. Bogaru was severely injured last night and is very likely to hunt again. If it reappears, send a signal immediately so we can rush to its aid in time."
After a pause, Haruki continued, "Next is the issue of the Wolf Knights' battle."
"In the next battle against Bogaru, Sean and I will lead the charge, while you will operate on the perimeter. If Bogaru tries to escape or we are defeated, you must provide timely support, but please be extremely careful to ensure your own safety."
"The Wolf Knights understand, Mr. Haruki!"
Closing his notebook, the captain gave an affirmative answer, preserving the scars he had inflicted himself, turning the pain into a bitter medicine to keep himself clear-headed, for the next campaign against Bogaru—it would be a fight to the death.
