"Stop!" Ezreal called out, seeing that the testing objective had been achieved.
The two scarred but instantly recovered Worgen immediately stopped, respectfully retreating to their original positions, as if the fierce battle had never happened.
"Excellent!" Ezreal did not 吝嗇 his praise, his eyes filled with admiration for his creations, "...You have perfectly become the sharp blades in the shadows I desired."
The ghostly bodies obtained from the Raven were immune to most damage, and the control skills of the Demon Eye were also perfectly inherited.
The ability to cause hallucinations with a glance was extremely useful in battle; if operated properly, it could even achieve a first-strike kill effect.
The self-healing abilities of the 吞蛇 and Chameleon Lizard also performed well; ordinary injuries basically did not affect combat.
Their close-combat ability was also astonishingly strong; although their defense was average, they could exchange injuries for injuries without a problem, relying on their self-healing ability.
Coupled with Dark Magic, Undead Magic, Sound Magic, and the Blood Magic that had not yet been revealed.
Among A-ranks, they were considered formidable, and with the superposition of their ghostly bodies and self-healing abilities, their troublesome nature was second to none.
"From now on, you shall be called 'Shadow Worgen'," he announced. "Later, I will find a way for you to replenish your magic in combat, making your sustained combat capability even stronger."
The six Shadow Worgen all knelt on one knee, their voices deep and fanatical: "Shadow Worgen, we obey our master's command!"
Ezreal waved his hand, and the six figures gradually faded, merging into his shadow, with only a few faint wisps of black smoke and several points of eerie green light flashing in the shadows at his feet.
The training ground returned to calm.
Ezreal contentedly tallied his gains from this trip:
"For tanks, there are the Red and Blue Warriors. Although they are still B-rank, they are sufficient. Once I collect some unsealing solution, perhaps they will be the first two to advance to S-rank."
"For warriors, there are the Shadow Worgen. Close-combat ability, recovery ability, and a rich array of magic skills—perfect. They will continue to evolve in this direction in the future."
"For mages, there are the Blue Buff and Fire Crown Treant. Their magic power is abundant, even more exaggerated than typical S-ranks. They specialize in large-area magic, and their power is not bad. They give each other beneficial buffs, providing a full 12 minutes of enhanced status, which is enough!"
"And for marksmen, there's me!"
"Although the two groups of Crimson Raptors, which disengaged from the Shadow Wolf, only have C-rank strength in the large bird, their twelve combined magic power is still decent, plus the magic power of two C-rank Marsh Frogs,"
"Amaterasu, combined with Dimensional Magic's magic sharing and life sharing. With the Marsh Frog, Raptor adding mana and health, it increases fault tolerance!"
"Alright!" Ezreal carefully calculated his current strength and nodded with extreme satisfaction.
In terms of current strength, he had steadily stepped into S-rank!
...The next morning, as the first ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds, the four had already steadily mounted the backs of the Shadow Worgen, which had transformed into giant wolf forms, and embarked on their journey back.
On the broad and strong backs of the giant wolves, the four had energy shields of various colors glowing around them, protecting themselves from the cold wind, and leisurely lay on the wolves' backs.
The giant wolves powerfully flapped their huge and tough wings, carrying them hundreds of meters above the ground.
Looking down from this height, the scenery below was like a series of colorful paintings, rapidly receding.
The vast and boundless forest resembled a green ocean, with tall trees forming a continuous expanse, their canopies gently swaying in the breeze, as if green waves were rising and falling.
Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow.
The winding river flowed like a silver ribbon, surging endlessly.
The distant mountains undulated continuously, majestic and magnificent.
Peaks soared into the clouds, their summits covered in white snow, as if wearing white hats.
The giant wolves flew at an extremely fast yet very stable speed.
Their wings flapped rhythmically, each stroke bringing a strong gust of wind, but without causing the slightest bump for the four on their backs.
The four remained silent throughout the journey; having woken up too early that morning, they were all busy catching up on sleep.
