Chapter 38: Mutant Wolves
A scream rang out over the camp, and Link turned around and ran towards the tent, narrowly missing out on the tank.
"What's the ghost calling...... Stanks looked up and saw Link bypassing him and burrowing into the tent, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but his voice stopped abruptly.
"Hiss......" Si Tank gasped, leaned down slightly, and touched the short knife hanging from his waist with his right hand - he also saw the glowing ghostly light around the camp, like a ghostly fire, and his heart suddenly felt a pang of horror.
Si Moxue, Opus and the others also came out of the other tents when they heard the sound, and when they saw the bright light around the camp, they became vigilant, formed a circle in front of the tent, and held their weapons one after another.
What is it?
Is the "Alien Beast" coming?
No one dared to act rashly, asking each other with their eyes, but in the dark night thick as ink, everyone couldn't tell what it was for a while?
For a moment, the camp seemed to fall into dead silence, only the fire in the center of the camp crackled and burst into a flickering spark.
"Yes...... It's a pack of wolves! Suddenly, a member of the team said. He had better eyesight, and stood on the periphery, and after getting used to the darkness around him, he saw the ghostly glow of the ghostly light, which was the glowing eyes of wolves in the dark night.
Wolves?
It's close to a human settlement, how can there be wolves?
By the light of the flickering fire, everyone squinted and found that the camp was surrounded by giant wolves, more than twenty of them.
The wolf was very large, mostly more than two meters long, with a pointed head and well-developed canine teeth. Giant wolves have slender limbs. The thick, blunt claws stamped on the ground, leaving several long scratches.
Si Moxue furrowed her brows, this is not an ordinary wolf pack, this is a mutant wolf pack - in addition to the extremely huge size, this wolf pack did not know when it quietly approached the camp without being detected under the cover of the night, I am afraid that its intelligence has also been improved.
And the number of wolves in the general pack is about 5 to 12, and there are rarely more than 20 wolves.
Post-apocalyptic mutant wolves are rarely seen even with more than 7 of them.
But for some reason, the number of mutant wolves that attacked the camp tonight exceeded twenty.
The wolves looked at them for a long time, grinning and whining, and even sticky saliva - the wolves had taken everyone for prey.
The biggest crisis since the start of this investigation has appeared!
Suddenly, there was a short wolf howl in the darkness, and the wolves surrounding the camp swooped down on them as if they had received orders.
The great enemy is coming, and in an instant, whether it is a trainee hunter or an intermediate hunter, as long as it is a hybrid person, they all shout genetic liberation.
Genetic hybrids such as leopards, tigers, and wolves, which have sharp claws and fangs after genetic liberation, all show their sharp claws and fangs and meet the wolves.
Genetic hybrids such as sheep, rats, and rabbits are armed with weapons and rely on their agile bodies after genetic liberation to maneuver among mutant wolves.
This is a vicious battle against the hungry wolves, either you die or I die, everyone present knows this very well, hands and knives, claws and teeth, everyone is fighting bravely to survive.
Si Moxue rolled on the spot and dodged the giant wolf that pounced on the side and behind, and immediately jumped up from the ground, threw out the short dagger buckled in the palm of his hand, and stabbed it in the eye with the momentum of the giant wolf rushing forward.
In front of the dagger that flashed with cold light, the giant wolf braked the car stiffly, swung his head and twisted his waist, and grabbed the ground with his four paws, dodging the knife that went straight to the point.
If the enemy doesn't enter, I will advance, Si Moxue saw the giant wolf stop, and he stepped forward one by one, and the short dagger in his hand was changed to a stab, and attacked its throat from the side of the giant wolf.
The giant wolf couldn't dodge, and the dagger in Si Moxue's hand cut through the rough and heavy wolf hair, cutting through the arteries in its neck and then going deep until it touched its spine.
The spine was wounded, and the giant wolf whimpered and collapsed to the ground.
Si Moxue withdrew her hand and brought out a splash of blood. Warm blood splashed on his body, and he was quickly cooled by the night breeze.
Suddenly, she twisted and swung her arms, and a short dagger in her hand burst out of the wind, nailing it to the forehead of a giant wolf behind her who wanted to sneak attack. The strength is so great that after the short dagger nails the giant wolf, it still seems to have a clangling sound.
Si Moxue ran past the giant wolf and retracted the dagger - after the apocalypse, resources are scarce, and the hot weapons are controlled by the main city, and the people in the inner and outer cities can hardly get it. This dagger was bought by Kaito at a great price before she left the oasis, and she couldn't throw it away at will.
Retracting her dagger, she quickly looked around and rushed back into the wolves.
If the battle between Sim Moxue and the giant wolf is a collision of skill and brute force, then the battle between Opus and the giant wolf is a confrontation between force and force.
The giant wolf attacked, and Opus stood there without hurrying, neither genetically liberated, nor pulling out his weapon.
Seeing that the giant wolf was about to pounce in front of him, Ops took a step back, and then kicked the ground with his left foot, and a shallow pit was stepped out of the ground, and he actually took the initiative to run towards the giant wolf.
With a muffled thud, Opus and the giant wolf collided.
I saw that he was short enough to avoid the big mouth of the giant wolf, and his left hand took the opportunity to grab the neck of the giant wolf from the side, and his right hand was against the mouth of the giant wolf, not afraid of the bite of the minions at all-look closely, a layer of fine brown fluff grew on Opus's arms, and the giant wolf's fangs and broken teeth could not help him for half a point.
There was a crunch, and Opus snapped the wolf's thick neck.
The heavy wolf corpse fell to the ground with a bang, and Opus looked around and rushed towards the next giant wolf.
Not everyone is as brave as Sim Moxue and Opus, most of them can only fight the giant wolf, and some people have even shown a decline in the face of the giant wolf.
In the scuffle, the fire was trampled on, and only a few bright white flashlight lights swept around in the darkness.
Wolves are social animals, and their fight depends on the will of the head wolf. Therefore, Simese and Opus fought while searching for the traces of the head wolf.
As long as they can kill the head wolf, or make the head wolf cowardly, they can win the battle.
Everyone present who could think of this, after the battle, was looking for the figure of the head wolf
The dagger in Si Moxue's hand pierced into the eyes of the giant wolf under him, smashing straight into the brain. The wolf let out a wail and fell to the ground.
She dismounted from the giant wolf and eagerly looked around—she had been wrestling with the giant wolf for too long, during which more and more people were wounded and collapsed and dragged into the tent. There are only a handful of those who are fighting at the front.
You have to find out where the wolf is!
Suddenly, Si Moxue's eyes lit up, and she noticed that outside the encirclement of the wolves, there was a mutant wolf with an extremely huge body, with a length of nearly three meters. And this giant wolf, instead of rushing towards the camp like the other wolves, squatted there, as if supervising the battle.
"The head wolf is at twelve o'clock!" Si Moxue shouted, and the sound fell into everyone's ears through the noise of the scene.
Then she ran towards the wolf.
Everyone in the battle was shocked when they heard this, and some of the less injured people even stood up and joined the battle, so that they could have more people to deal with the wolf.
Si Moxue, Opus, Si Tan, and Liang Wenruo came out of the encirclement from four directions and went straight to the head wolf outside the circle.
Sim Xue and Opus were the first to arrive, attacking the wolf head from left to right. The head wolf tried to hide, but Liang Wenruo, a tank who arrived later, blocked its way.
Under the powerful joint strangulation of the four people, the head wolf struggled for a long time and lost his breath.
The first wolf was dead, and the remaining giant wolf was like loose sand, and suddenly lost the courage to fight again, and fled into the distance with a wail.
The rest of the people sat on the ground, their hands and feet sore and weak.
Tank stood up and led his acquaintances, who still had the strength to spare, to drag the wolf corpse out of the camp and rekindle the fire.
It's finally safe.
Leaving behind the vigil, the crowd, who had fought for half the night, re-entered the tent and fell asleep exhausted.
