Chapter 75 The Curse of the Wolf
Seeing Amlodi Skasen Skasenson pounce like a mad wolf, Li Wei suddenly raised his right hand, sending out a series of purple psionic fireballs, while simultaneously unleashing a massive psionic pressure.
This was a strike by Li Wei at almost his full strength. He wanted to end this pointless battle quickly so he could get inside the Phoenix Cliff Library of the Ada people and retrieve the books and ancient texts.
Moreover, he did not deliberately aim the fireball at Amlodi Skasen Skasenson's vital parts. It was not because he was arrogant, but because there were very few strong people below the Primarch level who could fight him. He was afraid that he might accidentally kill the fifth Lord of the Space Wolves.
The conflict arising from the killing of a high-ranking member of the Space Wolf Clan is not something that can be easily resolved.
However, the situation that Li Wei had anticipated did not occur: the psionic fireball he shot out, combined with the psionic pressure that was enough to crush ordinary Astartes, was actually blocked.
He then realized that he had underestimated the power of the Space Wolf's bloodline inherited from the Primarch.
As Amlodi Skasen Skasenson launched his attack in mid-air like a leaping wolf, he suddenly realized that the air had become incredibly heavy, making even breathing difficult.
Seeing the fireball hurtling towards him and about to explode, he was completely enraged. The wolf bloodline inherited from the Space Wolf Primal within his body suddenly and completely erupted.
His already rugged face began to contort wildly with a howl as mournful as a lone wolf's, his hair grew longer, and his face deformed like a wild wolf.
Amrodi Skasen Skasenson was already quite muscular when he was wearing his iron-gray power armor. This warrior, who was even stronger than a standard Astartes, now had a body that made him look like a real Fenris giant wolf. He forcefully broke free from Levi's terrifying psionic pressure.
Faced with the purple psionic fireball hurtling towards him, he stomped on the ground to accelerate and pounced straight at the fireball, even biting it hard with his teeth, just like an enraged mad wolf.
Boom!
Dust and debris rose, sending stones flying and causing the ground to tremble slightly.
But from within the smoke came the frantic howls of Amrodi Skason, like a wounded wolf. Judging from the sound, although he was seriously injured, his injuries were not fundamental.
Li Wei was slightly taken aback, then shook his head. He had originally wanted to end the battle quickly, but the Space Wolf's uncontrollable wolf curse had completely taken effect.
The Curse of the Wolf is a genetic defect in the Space Wolf, an instability caused by the Wolf Helix gene fragment in the gene seed.
When it takes effect, the warrior loses his human reason and completely transforms into a werewolf who only knows how to kill. His strength and speed will be greatly increased, but he will not distinguish between friend and foe.
Helpless, Li Wei dared not use large-scale psionic techniques again. He was afraid that Amrodi Skasen Skasenson, who had already gone mad, would take the psionic fireball head-on in his face as before, and that he would die quickly enough.
As for the mind manipulation techniques that the Skyhawk School excels at, Li Wei felt it was best not to use them lightly.
He had already sensed that Amrodi Skasen Skasenson, the lord of the Space Wolves, possessed only pure madness and the instincts of a wild wolf, which could not be soothed by mental magic.
"Then let's use physical attacks!"
Li Wei stared at the dissipating smoke and dust before him, slowly twisted his wrists, and moved his ankles, whispering.
The next second, with the ultimate bio-psychic energy of the Bright Feather School, a flash of light purple spiritual energy lightning appeared around Li Wei, and his figure suddenly blurred. He then sped away like a purple lightning bolt.
As Li Wei moved with lightning speed, he had just torn through the remaining smoke when he suddenly felt a hand covered in gray power armor gauntlets, yet sharp as a wolf's claw, grabbing fiercely at his head, which was not wearing a power armor helmet.
He abruptly turned his head, dodging the unexpected attack. Instead of retreating, he advanced, accelerating sharply, and unleashed a classic Astartes ram.
Before Amrodi Skasen Skasenson could fully react, he crashed into the opponent's open defense!
Bang!
Amlodi Skasen Skasenson's massive body looked as if it had been struck hard by a battering ram.
Amidst the suppressed, low howls of the space wolves under the golden doorway of the library, their usually imposing wolf lord was thrown into the library like a rag doll.
They clearly remembered that their battle-hardened wolf lord had once been afflicted with a mild wolf curse, yet he had still managed to defeat an entire orc tribe and become a formidable force.
Although he was eventually able to break free from the curse and regain his senses thanks to the spiritual soothing power of the Legion Rune Priest and his own strong will.
But this is enough to prove how powerful Amlodi Skasen Skasenson was in his initial werewolf transformation, yet he was unexpectedly crushed.
Meanwhile, the crimson-armored Astartes warriors on Qianzi's side remained calm and composed. This was not the first time they had witnessed their chief think tank overwhelm their opponents with physical strength enhanced by psionic energy, and they were already used to it.
"The Curse of the Wolf? Interesting!"
Li Wei watched as Amrodi Skasen Skasenson struggled to his feet in the library, pushing aside the books scattered on him, his face still contorted with madness. He shook his shoulder, which was still numb from the earlier collision.
He was waiting for Amrodi Skasen Skasen to launch another attack, but after a long while, Amrodi Skasen Skasen still hadn't crawled out from the pile of scattered books.
His thoughts drifted away, and he suddenly realized what was happening before him: the Wolf Curse of the Space Wolves was erupting, just like the scene in his past life when the Thousand Sons Legion's flesh mutation was first exposed to other legions.
As for why this is the case, the Blood Curse of the Thousand Sons Legion originally erupted suddenly on this planet, Shrike, right beneath their feet, and was exposed in front of the Space Wolves.
The mutated flesh and blood, and the twisted and broken appearance of the Thousand Sons' bodies, horrified Leman Ruth, the Primarch of the Space Wolves.
This was also one of the triggers in my past life's memories for the later convening of the Nicaea Conference and the ban on the Thousand Sons' psychic powers and think tank.
"However, now it is the genetic defects of the Space Wolves that are being exposed to the Thousand Sons Legion."
Li Wei couldn't help but burst into laughter; he had realized that he had truly changed Qianzi's fate.
Before he could finish laughing, he suddenly realized that Amlodi Skasen Skasenson, who had been crawling around on the ground, had somehow circled around from a blind spot and was about to ambush him.
"Ugh... what a downer!"
Losing interest, Li Wei coldly stared at the mad wolf pouncing towards him and sighed helplessly.
Then he suddenly accelerated, sidestepped and locked his throat, slamming Amlodi Skasen Skasenson, who was already badly injured and had lost some of his fighting ability, to the ground. Then he lifted him by the back of the neck with one hand and repeatedly slammed his body against the hard rock ground.
