Chapter 036: Snow Forest Zombie Wolf
Silver Star City, the ruins of the Holy City.
"It's really unfortunate to meet such weather......"
A human voice came from the depths of the jungle sea snow field, and Wu Song lowered his head and bent down, quietly walking in the snow forest.
He was covered in a piece of animal fur on his upper body, a fur hat on his head, and only a boot on his foot.
In his hand was a carved bow, and on his shoulder was a quiver with two extremely precious carved arrows stuck in it.
In addition, Wu Song also carried a cross sword around his waist. Again, the texture is extremely fine.
To compete with Simon, he has to work harder. The test of endurance and cold resistance from the previous night on the ice field has not yet been carried out. Eevee set an unusual task for the confident teenagers. That's wolf hunting.
"Hmph."
As he went, there was a sharp stabbing pain under the foot of the foot where he had lost his boot.
But in addition to letting out a muffled snort, Wu Song ignored the Yin Yin blood stains under his feet, and his speed was still unabated.
“…… At this time, it would be nice to have a pair of 'mountain shoes' that are not soaked in water......"
Such a 'weird' thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and the corners of Wu Song's mouth outlined a curvature, not knowing whether to smile or laugh at himself.
Wu Song looked up at the sky, and the tightrope-like snow line still did not decrease at all, but was getting bigger and bigger. The hurricane that shuttled through the forest became more and more hideous, and his bare skin was painful.
It is very dangerous to wander in the mountains and forests in snowstorms. Even seasoned older hunters don't dare to give it a try.
And the reason why Wu Song is so risky is that he was born with a body of courage, he is not afraid of heaven and earth, and he was born with a pair of iron bones.
If you want to get to the bottom of it, he is actually trying to make himself better.
But then again, the blizzard weather in the mountains and forests. Not to mention that the view is seriously obstructed, and there may be greater danger at any time, but the benefits of this test are directly proportional to its danger.
Those who are able to hunt wolves will be able to worship Ibu as their teacher.
There are almost no roads in the Black Mountain forest, coupled with bad weather and other influencing factors, there are not a few people who die in this test every year. So for many half-grown teenagers, they generally do what they can, and 90% of them will give up automatically.
But now, Wu Song can't take care of so much.
He bent down. Touching the faint paw prints on the ground, the blood stains left by the prey had long been washed away by the wind and snow, and he could now only judge the direction of the prey based on his intuition for many years.
After chasing more than 20 miles, Wu Song's foot strength was about to be exhausted, but he clung to the direction he judged, like a tireless machine, and had no intention of letting go.
"You have to be quick, you can still catch up on the trail, if you take a step slower. There's nothing to chase. ”
With the memories of his previous life, Wu Song understands in his heart that between people and prey, in order to survive separately. Fighting is stamina.
If either side relaxes, there is a threat to life.
Sometimes, even animals are ready to pay attention, especially if it's a stealthy beast like the snow wolf. You let it go this time, and when it goes back to lick its wounds, it will meet next time. will inevitably take the opportunity to take revenge on you.
If at this time, the poisonous insects and beasts that had been released in the past suddenly jumped out to retaliate, it would be tantamount to a catastrophe.
Soft-hearted things, Wu Song will never do it.
If you don't even understand this, you won't live long if you dare to enter this black mountain forest.
"Let's not mention that the beast has already remembered his appearance, and if he can't get this opportunity to join, the Radiant Emperor who claims to be a god may also give up on himself."
Wu Song still remembers Yang Jiangong's words.
"Become the best warrior and you will be crowned king."
The snow wolf is a lone beast unique to this snow-capped mountain forest, with a body as large as a calf and pale black fur. Snow wolf skins are also a rarity and can be made into clothing, which is a symbol of glory.
Wu Song chased down without hesitation, until he encountered an obstacle and he had to stop.
The valley that appeared in front of me was not only narrow and narrow, but also the bottom of the valley was treacherous.
The paw prints that remained at the mouth of the valley and the large blood stains told Wu Song that the wolf must have stumbled and fallen from here.
"Hmph, that's good, it saves me a lot of hands."
Wu Song was a little overjoyed, he wanted to climb down, but he suddenly felt a trace of strangeness in his heart, raised his eyes and looked at the surrounding terrain and mountains, and his smile suddenly froze on his face.
Before leaving, the commander of Ibu had said that he should not enter the valley. Don't take any snow valley lightly, it will cost you your life.
It's a deserted place, and it's not an exaggeration to say it's a forbidden place.
With the memory of his previous life, Wu Song would not be deterred, let alone Wu Song's character.
"The body of the snow wolf should be down there, so there is no reason not to pick it up."
Although Wu Song is not very old, he is young, and he dares to hunt an adult snow wolf alone, Wu Song relies on more than just one body of courage. If he didn't have a certain amount of experience and brains, coupled with confidence in the trap he had laid, Wu Song would never have made such rash moves.
According to Wu Song's judgment, this snow wolf should have been trapped in his trap, and it was already beyond Wu Song's expectations that it could break free from the trap.
Coupled with the lethality of one of his carved arrows, this snow wolf is not far from death.
What Wu Song needs to do is to track it down and easily end it.
And three carved arrows, one is still pierced on the body of the snow wolf, not to mention the preciousness of this carved arrow.
In Ibrahim's warning, it must not be missed.
Thinking of this, Wu Song immediately made a decision, and without hesitation, he put the carved bow in his hand behind his back, leaned down and grabbed the convex stone cliff and climbed down.
Half an hour passed, Wu Song clasped the crack of the rock with his fingernails, his body hung halfway up the cliff, he glanced at his feet, the bottom was bottomless, and the fog fluttered forward in the fierce snowstorm, blinding his eyes, as if he was one with heaven and earth.
There are a few shiny ones on the tip of Wu Song's nose, I don't know if they are sweat beads or rain drops.
The limp body has reached the verge of physical exhaustion, so it can't go up and down.
In such a dangerous situation, Wu Song did not show the slightest panic.
"It's impossible for a snow valley to be so deep."
"Before we get strong evidence. You can't trust your eyes. ”
"You know, sometimes, even your own eyes can't be trusted."
Sure enough, when Wu Song stood at the bottom of the valley, a knowing smile suddenly appeared on his face. "The precipice stands on the edge of the mountain, and there are gloomy clouds and miserable fog, which is just a visual illusion for people."
The bottom of the valley was hidden in a mist a few meters below him just now.
After carefully searching for dozens of meters, Wu Song squatted down next to a sticky bloodstain, if his judgment was not wrong. The body of the snow wolf that fell from above the valley mouth should be here.
"Where did you leave?"
Suddenly-
His eyes touched a pile of white things in the stone gap three feet away.
When he looked closely, it was a pile of dead human bones, and after being stunned for a while, he slowly walked over.
All that remained of the skeleton was the skull, spine, and carcass of limbs, apparently too old to be calculated.
Wu Song couldn't help but think in his heart, "This corpse doesn't look very old, maybe it was chased and killed by a fierce beast." Falling from the mouth of the valley and exposing the corpse of the barren mountain and valley is likely to be a tester like himself. ”
So compassion arose, and he pulled out the cross sword at his waist. It looks like it's going to be buried in place.
His eyes touched a pile of white things in the stone gap three feet away.
When he looked closely, it was a pile of dead human bones, and he was stunned for a long time. Walk slowly and slowly.
All that remained of the skeleton was the skull, spine, and carcass of limbs, apparently too old to be calculated.
Not far away, Wu Song first found a relatively soft soil. Then dig a simple soil hole, pick up the white bones piece by piece, and move them into the soil hole.
When he picked up the last piece of bone, a shiny black beam appeared.
"It's ......"
It's not so much an object as it is a rough crystal.
The whole body has a lacquer-like luster, and the surface has more concentric ring grooves and longitudinal wrinkles.
Wu Song not only did not feel a trace of surprise, but raised his eyebrows high, but the doubts in his heart were even heavier.
"Crystal ...... from the bones of dead men"
I can't tell if this thing is good or bad, plus the taboo of the dead.
Wu Song hesitated again and again, and wanted to throw them into the earth cave and bury them, but he still left them behind.
After doing this, Wu Song carefully looked at the terrain at the bottom of the valley.
I can only see the thick fog in my eyes, especially in such a snowstorm, and there is a whining sound from time to time in the depths of the valley bottom.
Walking towards the low-lying part of the snow valley,
"This place should not be stayed for long, it must be done as soon as possible."
With a bad premonition rising in his heart, Wu Song made a decision to search for half a stick of incense again, and when the time comes, no matter whether he can find the prey or not, he must leave as soon as possible.
People are not as good as heaven, and as soon as he had a plan to go, Wu Song found the corpse of the snow wolf from afar.
It's at a lower depression two hundred meters away from itself.
The snow wolf's calf-sized body was half lying in the snow den, and the other half was exposed. A thick black wolf tail hung weakly on the ground, and there was not a trace of movement.
Although Wu Song was sure that even if the snow wolf was still alive, he would definitely be dying, he still drew his sword in his hand and carefully moved it over.
The cold light on the mighty blade of the Kaishan Knife shone with cold light, and what was reflected in it was Wu Song's pair of cold eyes.
Approach cautiously, and then pass through careful inspection.
Wu Song came to the conclusion that the snow wolf was dead.
To be exact, it was dead before it came to Snow Valley.
The eagle arrow shot in from the back of the snow wolf's head, and then through the wolf's mouth in front of it.
The sharp arrows were stained with red blood, and with such a fatal blow, this beast could still escape for more than twenty miles with injuries, if this was the case, Wu Song should be alive and dead.
"Brute."
Wu Song deliberately shouted loudly, but his face was strange, and he raised the cross sword and stuck it in front of him.
While unloading the carved bow on his back, he quickly pulled out the carved arrow from the back of the snow wolf's head, and opened the bow and arrows in one go.
Look around and search for any possible voyeur targets around.
And at this time, Wu Song didn't notice, or instinctively ignored the dead thing, the wolf corpse that was already dead anymore, and its stiff limbs began to twitch slightly.
Now, in addition to Wu Song's strange face, he also felt a swishing chill in his back spine.
"What the hell is it that is playing 'pranks' with yourself......"
Rather than suspecting that it was a ghost, Wu Song preferred to believe that some beast had dragged the wolf corpse here.
But there is one thing Wu Song can't understand, what kind of unknown animal can drag a body the size of a snow wolf, even the most ferocious bear in the snow forest, I'm afraid it can't do so.
With the bow and arrow in hand, his eyes followed the arrow star to scan carefully, and no suspicious targets were found within a close range of twenty meters.
Wu Song is still a little confident in his eyesight.
"Maybe I'm too nervous."
Wu Song laughed at himself, the bow and arrow in his hand had just slackened, and suddenly he felt a fishy wind hit his ears.
Moments of emergency. Wu Song subconsciously turned around, rolled on the spot, and dodged from the sharp claw wind.
On the way to the ground, the bow and arrow fell, Wu Song caught a glimpse of the cross sword beside him, and immediately pulled the sword out of the ground, and by the time he regained his body, the long sword had successfully protected his chest.
The wolf who came back from the dead was obviously afraid of the weapon in Wu Song's hand, so he did not attack continuously.
Under the pressure of the long sword, the snow wolf, which had already pounced out half of its huge body, retracted abruptly.
"This ......"
When you see the snow wolf who has come back from the dead, don't look at Wu Song's current rock-like appearance, in fact, he is already in a cold sweat, and his heart is pounding in his chest. If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, he might have been seriously injured at this moment, and he would inevitably have been buried in the wolf's mouth.
"Mountain spirits? Ghosts? Zombie wolves? …… What the hell is it? ”
All kinds of words were running around in Wu Song's mind.
Whether it is in this life or the previous life, or the first time in his life that he has encountered such an absurd and terrifying thing, even if Wu Song is full of guts, he can't help but feel a little numb in his scalp at this moment.
What kind of wolf is that?
The red nose spewed out black gas, reflecting its unusualness. There was no anger in the two sockets that only had the whites of the eyes.
The two ears stood on the head, and the hole caused by the carved arrow in the wolf's mouth seemed to have no effect. Half-open and half-closed, there was a low howl.
The wolf that came back from the dead kept roaming around Wu Song, seemingly looking for a gap where he could start.
Wu Song's clear forehead twitched rapidly, and the two thick eyebrows were twisted into a serious straight line.
The snow wolf is cunning and vicious, and when encountering a difficult opponent, it will generally wait until the opponent's physical strength and spirit are exhausted, and then he will see the opportunity, pounce on the neck of the prey, accurately hold the throat, and cut the artery with sharp teeth.
As for then...... That's probably cutting open the belly of the prey, devouring the internal organs, and so on.
It's just that Wu Song doesn't know what is the difference between this 'zombie wolf' and ordinary wolves. (To be continued......)
