All Novel Full Chapter 39: OP Wolf Cub!!!
Chapter 39: OP Wolf Cub!!!
A man could be seen sneakily exiting the New Leaf village.
A few players that saw him couldn’t help but gasp in shock. They all recognized him! A lot had happened in the last hour, and this guy was at the very center of the storm!
Players from this beginner village had all thought the Mighty Wolves to be an impressive guild, but suddenly there were new tyrants in town! The Mighty Dragons guild had appeared out of nowhere with incredible momentum!
They obviously knew what the heck they were doing! They had completed the stick quest-line at a frightening pace and had relentlessly dueled one another to get used to the game’s controls.
Then all this lightning-fast preparation had shown its power when they had confronted and completely crushed the Mighty Wolves! Both guilds were huge in another MMO, but the Dragons were victorious in Infinite so far.
Jack could feel many gazes tinted with curiosity, but there was also something else. There was greed. As expected, the dragon pricks had offered a bounty for information about his whereabouts.
They had to act fast!
– Jack’O: I’m here! Meet quickly at the northeast of the village. We’re leaving in precisely 42 seconds.
– Bubblegum: Understood! We’ll be there!
Why 42 seconds? It was the time it would take for the information to reach their opponents. Speed was the #1 priority here!
There were so many players farming in the New Leaf plain, but all the wise ones understood that a storm was brewing as they saw the 20 members of the Mighty Wolves hurrying to the forest.
They whispered to their friends in hushed voices:
“Did you see? It’s the Mighty Wolves!”
“Are they seriously heading to the forest?!”
“Yes, there will be another fight. It’s a PVP zone, after all.”
“Wait, they’re already gone. They sure moved hella fast!”
“Sure, but is it fast enough? The Mighty Dragons have scouts everywhere….”
As the gallery was happily discussing the situation, Jack’s group was progressing incredibly quickly. They reached the fox territory and then the wolf territory. The players were smiling in satisfaction.
Well, all but Bubblegum. She was staring at her messages while frowning.
– Jack’O: What is it?
– Bubblegum: We’ve left so quickly, and the Mighty Dragons show no sign of coming after us. In fact, they’re nowhere to be seen.
– Jack’O: Oh, you found yourself some informers at the village?
– Bubblegum: That’s beside the point. Fifty players don’t just disappear magically. It’s impossible for them to all have logged out. They probably hid and are now tracking us.
As she typed these lines, her expression was comically solemn. Jack couldn’t help but give her a thumb up., praising her logical thinking.
But now wasn’t the time for such concern. Jack guided them to the lair of the wolf boss once more. There, they found the most dreaded and powerful enemy of all time, the legendary…
< Happy Wolf Cub Level 6 >
It still looked as cute as the previous time, as it rolled itself in the grass happily. It would even show its fearsome side as it hunted helpless sticks and leaves! It would pounce majestically head first to the ground akin to an apex predator! — or not…
“Boys, we’re defeating this crazily powerful enemy today! Are you all ready?!” Jack heroically announced.
They all looked at him at a loss. Crazily powerful enemy? The cub? What?! But suddenly, the CPR dude’s face turned livid. He then lowly murmured solemnly.
“Boss, I’ve just received bad news. Some dumbass in the dragon guild just wrote a Twittering post complaining about how OP wolves are. I think they’re here, maybe even watching us!”
“Oh yeah, for sure, but it doesn’t matter. We’ll fight this OP wolf cub until we almost wipe and it almost dies. Just stick to the script, and let’s make this a good show! ;)” Jack instructed.
“Pfft— Alright! Let’s do this! I’ll make sure to use all my power in every strike!” Bubblegum instantly understood his plan.
“Wait, we’re faking that the cub is strong to bait them into stealing it?!” The CPR dude realized with extreme shock before grinning: “Hehe, you can be sure that we’ll give our all in this fight!”
“The more 0 appear, the better!” Jack gently reminded them.
That is how began the most intense boss fight of all time! The Mighty Wolves VS OP Wolf Cub!
The players took a little while to adapt, but they soon followed Jack’s lead to perfection! To anyone watching this scene, the cuddly-looking wolf appeared to be a deadly beast!
1. Every swipe of its claw would send multiple players flying a few meters backward! — They totally weren’t throwing themselves!
2. Every time the creature howled, the players would hold their heads, obviously enduring a powerful sonic attack. — 100% believable!
3. Every attack had about a 99% probability of being ineffective. It was as if the wolf was almost invincible! — no faking involved whatsoever!
4. Every successful bite was a death sentence, with the victim disappearing in blue particles.— They totally weren’t committing suicide with mutual PK!
The wolf cub was having a blast! It usually played alone and was now ecstatic at having so many friends to play with! Play hunting with them was so much better than doing it with sticks or leaves!
It really looked like the most intense fight of all Infinite! This boss seemed even more troublesome than the chicken boss! But, the Mighty Wolves didn’t give up!
They were fighting with all they had under the direction of their powerful leader, Jack! In fact, he was the one with the aggro 99% of the time. How was he even able to parry such deadly attacks?! He had to be a fighting genius for sure!
Even then, their party kept losing members, and they were reaching their limits! They were about to wipe yet remained hopeful!
Jack even shouted to encourage them all: “C’mon guys, we can do this! A few more hits, and we’ll have some more cloaks! Afterward, we’ll be able to trounce the dragon assholes!”
“Wait, couldn’t they just kill us to steal them?!” Bubblegum asked with unmistakable fright in her voice.
“Don’t worry! It’s a bound item. It won’t drop upon defeat!” Jack reassured them. “Alright, here comes the final combo! Ten more hits, and we’re done! Glory and revenge will be ours!” Jack shouted in incredibly high spirit!
But suddenly, many humanoid shadows appeared on the sides. The Mighty wolves were so focused that it took a few seconds for them to notice. But as they did, their faces showed extreme despair.
“Oh fuck! What the hell are they doing here?! Quick, finish it!”
“Hurry up! Anyone can have the loot, but not those fuckers!”
“Increase the damage!”
“Huzzah!!”
But, that last shout was so full of energy that the wolf cub found it fascinating. Without waiting any further, it began to playfully copy them as it howled!
The Mighty Wolves saw this happen horror-stricken. The sound attack instantly brought agony as they had to regain their spirits. No! They had been so close!
Luckily for the Mighty Dragons, they were right outside the range of the “impossibly strong” attack. They avoided it altogether and used the time their enemies were paralyzed to rush forward and last hit the boss!
They smiled happily as 8 of them smashed the wolf cub all at once.

Instantly they removed a big chunk of the poor cub’s HP. It loved playing with the other humans, but these newcomers were bullies!
Blood spurted out of its fur, tainting the lush grass. The youngling couldn’t tolerate so much pain as it whimpered loudly, calling for help.
The dragon pricks instantly realized that there was something wrong with this scene. They had just seen the Mighty Wolves fight this boss for more than 15 minutes, barely doing one damage per hit at best.
What the fuck was happening?! How was it suddenly so weak?! This reversal was so sudden that their brain couldn’t process the info. All they knew was that something was fucking wrong!
That’s when they saw Jack’s smile. “Ah, you guys sure are powerful. Very impressive! Say, are you all in the same party right now?”
What was he talking about?! The man’s voice was tinged with so much sarcasm as he “praised” them! What was he on about with the party?!
“Did you know that the aggro is shared between all members while in a party? Jack happily shared this very well-known fact.
Why was he even saying this? There were still 50 of them versus 5 of them. How could the man look so relaxed?!
But suddenly, a deep and fearsome howl resounded. It chilled everyone to the bone…well, except the Mighty Wolves, who just enjoyed the show.
— Howl! —
That’s when the wolf progenitor left his dwelling, instantly locking on the players who had brutalized his child.
< Wolf Progenitor Level 10 ☠ >
It was at this moment that the cub beaters understood that they had fucked up. The Mighty Dragons were suddenly feeling very weak at the knees.
As the boss charged at them, they protested indignantly:
“What the fuck! Why is it charging at us?!”
“These guys have been attacking it for so long!”
“This is so unfair, quick run! There’s no way we can beat this!”
Perhaps it was unfair, but so was life.
A few headed toward the Mighty Wolves, trying to cause their demise but were soon devoured. Damn, this wolf was OP!
Jack wanted nothing more than to enjoy the show happily, but he had something else to do. He relaxedly headed toward the boss’s dwelling as he couldn’t help but feel thankful. #Teamwork #Gathering Time
How nice of them all to distract the deadly creature for him…
Creator’s Thought
I was initially planning to try such a tactic with the Mighty wolves, but 50 players > 20! Logically, they could screw my plan if they died ASAP with the boss returning to its lair. But, it’s human nature to fear death and struggle for survival, even in a VR game. They would buy lots of time!
