After taking a solid hit from Qunnie Young, the giant wolf, originally charging at full speed, immediately slowed down, with wisps of black smoke emerging from around its body, but it wasn't directly defeated.

"Brother Chen, step back, I'll handle this!"

Qunnie Young, with her magic wand flickering with purple light, declared with a determined expression: "You saved our lives before, now it's my turn to repay you!"

"Uh, this..."

Upon hearing this, Leo Ray smiled helplessly and, without saying anything further, took a step back.

Indeed, in ordinary terms, Tier 5 peak experts are no match for even half-step Tier 6, and might even be killed in a single blow, so what Qunnie Young said was reasonable.

Since she wanted to return the favor, it wouldn't hurt to give her a chance to perform, and it was also an opportunity to observe the combat tactics of a Talent Lord with a combat-type talent up close.

Seeing Leo Ray retreat behind her, Qunnie Young's aura instantly surged, and she began chanting a spell.

As the complex and twisted ancient incantations echoed around, Qunnie Young's hair and magic robes started to move without wind, flapping loudly, making quite an impressive spectacle.

Not far away, the magical giant wolf, whose sharpness had been dampened considerably, obviously wouldn't give her a chance to gather her power. With a frenzied roar, it charged forward again with murderous intent filling the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the gigantic body of the beast was already within arms reach of Qunnie Young, especially those incredibly sharp fangs, which gleamed with a chilling light.

"Rapid Thunder Burst!"

At this critical moment, Qunnie Young opened her slightly closed starry eyes, and her magic wand pointed directly at the beast's gaping maw.

Bang!

A glaring flash thunder shot straight from the tip of the magic wand, hitting the target accurately once more.

Amidst the flashes of lightning and thunder, black smoke emitting a pungent smell once again spread from the magical giant wolf, blowing it away directly.

However, even with the opponent's crashing fall, it still wasn't defeated.

"Quite impressive power and aura, and the spell was rather ingenious. But the casting speed and power were slightly lacking."

Leo Ray nodded slightly, then focused his attention on the magic wand in her delicate hand.

It was a very ordinary Tier 5 wooden wand, covered in all sorts of scratches and scorch marks, obviously in a state of disrepair, almost on the verge of being unusable.

It's no surprise; in the Human Domain, even a Tier 5 blacksmith is a rarity that may appear once in a few centuries or even a millennium, let alone a Tier 5 magic craftsman, so the inability to repair it is understandable.

As the saying goes, a good general deserves a sharp sword. With Qunnie Young's current strength, using such a poorly maintained magic wand undoubtedly greatly limits her performance, so her current predicament isn't unexpected.

Amidst the turbulent battlefield, the magical giant wolf quickly got back on its feet, charging at Qunnie Young once more.

"A giant wolf made solely from magic, how dare it be so arrogant!"

This time, after a brief chant, Qunnie Young launched a Thunder Attribute Magic Giant Dragon from the tip of the magic wand, finally shattering the giant wolf back into the free-roaming energy particles in the air.

"Brother Chen, are you hurt?"

Seeing this, Qunnie Young let out a long breath, casually wiping the sweat from her fair forehead.

"I'm fine, thank you for your hard work."

Leo Ray nodded slightly, responding with a tone of appreciation.

It was indeed an impressive feat to completely defeat a peer-level opponent with three magical attacks.

Aside from the formidable attack power of thunder attribute spells and their inherent advantage over water attributes, Qunnie Young's own combat performance was also an undeniable factor.

Overall, the Talent Lord with a combat-type talent proved to have some capabilities, at least matching those seasoned conventional experts.

"Brother Chen, don't worry. As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you!"

Oblivious to Leo Ray's ease, Qunnie Young remained tense, vigilant as she observed the surroundings meticulously.

At present, our side's fierce battle with the golem puppets has reached a fever pitch, fierce and evenly matched confrontations erupting all around.

No sooner had Qunnie Young finished speaking than another half-step Tier 6 golem puppet giant wolf formed, staging another ferocious onslaught against her and Leo Ray.

"The same trick didn't work before; do you think it will now?"

Qunnie Young clearly realized there must be a hidden hand orchestrating all of this, and she snorted coldly: "It won't work no matter how many times you try; I won't let you act recklessly!"

With that, while Qunnie Young was fully engaged in handling the opponent before her, she didn't notice another giant wolf of the same grade forming stealthily behind her, lowering its body and creeping quietly through the shadows, evidently preparing to launch a sneak attack.

"Double Lightning Burst!"

Just as Qunnie Young finished her chant and pushed back the magical giant wolf in front, another silently approaching magical giant wolf bared its fangs, its hind legs suddenly pushing off to attack.

"What? How can this be?!"

Everything happened in a flash, and only after casting did Qunnie Young notice the ambusher in the shadows, but it was too late to react.

In desperation, knowing danger was imminent, Qunnie Young instinctively turned to Leo Ray, urgently shouting: "Run, there are two giant wolves..."

At this moment, Qunnie Young was surprised to discover that Leo Ray already held a shining magic wand in his hand, and a brilliant thunder light carrying a vast momentum descended from the sky.

Bang!

After a thunderous explosion, the magical giant wolf attempting the sneak attack was obliterated into ashes.

The show wasn't over yet. Leo Ray waved his magic wand again, and the magical giant wolf that had just been driven back by Qunnie Young was also struck by a fierce bomb on its head, smashing it to pieces.

"Brother Chen, you, you can do magic too?"

Having witnessed Leo Ray effortlessly neutralizing the crisis, Qunnie Young, caught between life and death, didn't even have time to revel in her survival. Her heart was overflowing with shock and confusion.

Previously, since Leo Ray always wielded a longsword, she assumed he was just a physical-type Tier 5 peak expert. Even though Leo Ray had saved her and Ethan Young, she never thought Leo Ray had any exceptional personal strength.

Because of this, she had come to aid Leo Ray earlier, intending to repay him and prevent any mishaps.

But what she never expected was that he was not only a swordsman but also an unbelievably powerful mage!

Even she couldn't instantly kill the magical giant wolf just now, yet Leo Ray resolved the crisis efficiently and decisively, using the same thunder attribute magic she used, which was simply incredible!

To know that mastering the rare thunder attribute magic had always been her pride and asset, it was unexpectedly and effortlessly surpassed.

With these thoughts in mind, Qunnie Young felt her worldview had been dramatically shaken.

The young male Lord before her, whom she had barely become acquainted with, was supposed to have only Tier 5 peak strength. Yet, how could he unleash a force much stronger than hers?!

"It's nothing, really; just some trivial tricks."

Gazing at her starry eyes filled with awe and bewilderment, Leo Ray merely smiled faintly.

Upon hearing this, a hint of urgency flushed over Qunnie Young's delicate, fair face.

Regardless of other matters, she initially intended to repay the favor, yet instead, she ended up showing off in vain and required Leo Ray to save her life a second time. How awkward for her!

Amidst a swirl of mixed emotions, Qunnie Young increasingly felt that this young male Lord was far more mysterious and unfathomable than she had imagined. Having so many Tier 6 experts willingly serve him indeed wasn't something ordinary people could achieve.

"Alright, now is not the time for distractions. Let's focus on the battle at hand first."

With his longsword and magic wand crossed in hand, Leo Ray's eyes were bright and full of spirit.

On the battlefield, unbeknownst to our side in the dim corners, there were many pairs of sombre and sinister foreign Lords' eyes, quietly observing everything.
