Chapter 8: The Wolves

The rain fell again.

The climate of this island is as unpredictable as a woman's face.

Legend has it that Himiko is the queen who can control the storm...... Maybe this climate has something to do with this legend?

So in the past few days, it is estimated that the great aunt of the 10,000-year-old virgin of Himiko has come again.

"Jonah, find a place to escape this torrential rain."

Ye Ming sighed and turned back to the fat man in red behind him.

Jonah, the chef of the Fortitude, a strong man of tonnage who looked oppressive in his light size.

After the detachment, in order to speed up the efficiency, the remaining four of them were divided into two teams, Jocelyn and Green's old helmsman in one group, and he and Jonah in one group.

Apparently he was taken care of.

After all, if you want to talk about combat effectiveness, excluding Ross and Lao Ye, Jonah is the strongest one.

With him by his side, Ye Ming's safety and security have undoubtedly improved a lot.

"Okay, leaf."

The fat man turned his head and smiled at him.

With such a heavy rain, the water curtain completely obscures the view, not to mention finding someone, even if it is difficult to walk, you may step on some trap, which is too dangerous.

The two of them found a dilapidated house and walked in and sat down.

Jonah took out the portable food from the backpack behind him and handed it to Ye Ming.

The boy thanked him and looked out, looking a little gloomy.

This damn rain directly interrupted their search, making the already small chance directly impossible.

Ye Ming leaned against the wall, constantly thinking in his heart, thinking of a way.

Turning his head and looking in the direction he and Laura had come from, those five words appeared in his mind again - wolf infestation attention.

"Maybe ......," Ye Ming muttered.

"Well, did you say something? Leaf? ”

"Jonah, I think we ......"

As soon as Ye Ming was halfway through his words, gunshots rang in their ears.

The two were slightly stunned.

Then came a dense burst of gunfire, piercing through the sound of the torrential rain and reaching their ears.

This time they were sure that they had heard it right.

Putting down the food in their hands, Ye Ming and Jonah glanced at each other and took the guns in their hands.

"There's just those guys here besides us, and it's supposed to be Greene who is in trouble."

"What are those souls thinking, why are they attacking us?"

"Now is not the time to dwell on this." Ye Ming waved his hand and motioned for Jonah to speak softly.

The two of them left the dilapidated cabin in the woods and walked quietly in the direction from which the gunshots had come from.

As if to cooperate with them, the rain has also decreased a little at this time, so that they can clearly see the things in front of them.

Pushing aside the trees, two figures appeared in front of them.

At this moment, these two men are holding guns and bows and arrows, and they are firing at the people on the other side.

Ye Ming and Jonah glanced at each other, and the two of them walked cautiously and walked behind the two of them with light steps.

Click~

There was an extremely subtle sound, it was the sound of a bullet being loaded.

Jonah on the other side directly reached out and grabbed the man's neck, and two fists directly knocked him into a concussion.

Ye Ming, who was next to the scene, smacked his tongue for a while.

This kind of ferocious power is naturally impossible for him to have.

So the boy just calmly picked up the gun and pointed it at the other person's head.

With a bang, it's over.

No matter how bad the marksmanship is, it is impossible to hit crookedly at such a close distance.

"Leaf ...... Jonah? ”

Greene and Jocelyn on the other side saw them.

The two shouted and walked over, and Ye Ming was also a little disappointed when he saw that there was no one else behind them.

It is clear that neither group of people has found Sanmantha.

"Let's go back first, we need to discuss the next things together."

Ye Ming frowned and picked up another pistol from the ground.

Twin guns or something, he can't even play with one, and he still holds two guns?

Casually threw it to Jonah next to him, and the fat man was holding a double-barreled shotgun in his hand, although it was powerful, it was certainly not as small and convenient to use as a pistol.

"Whew, these little girls know how to run around!" Jocelyn shook her hair down in frustration.

In order to find Sanmantha, several of them have completely turned into soup chickens.

No one is in a good mood in this state.

Ye Ming shook his head and didn't say anything.

Silently finding bullets from the corpse to fill his magazine, the boy and the other three walked in the direction where Rose was.

On the way, Ye Ming asked them about what happened in the past two days.

Especially about the wolves, he asked very carefully.

In this way, after about thirty minutes of walking, a continuous stream of buildings appeared in front of the eyes of several people.

This is...... Massive ruins?

"Rose? Ross! ”

Walking into the building, several people came to the place where they had been temporarily stationed.

At a distance, Jocelyn first called out the captain's name in confusion, and then seemed to notice that something was wrong.

A few people got closer and saw that the bounty hunter uncle had fallen to the ground unconscious at the moment, and there were marks of being bitten on his legs.

"Rose!" Jocelyn exclaimed.

Is this an encounter with wolves?

Ye Ming saw the two fallen wolf corpses around him, and almost understood what was happening.

"Rose, cheer up!" Jocelyn ran to the bounty hunter's side with some anxiety and looked at him worriedly.

The others also frowned, and there were worried expressions on their faces.

"We shouldn't have left him here alone." Greene blamed himself slightly.

"It's useless to say that now, I wonder ...... Laura, where did they go? ”

"There are traces of dragging on the ground," Ye Ming said, "Someone dragged the unconscious Rose into here to prevent him from being caught in the rain." ”

"So someone has been here?"

"Then why don't they leave someone alone to take care of the unconscious Rose!" Jocelyn looked a little excited.

Dissatisfaction is felt by everyone.

Ye Ming glanced at the black woman.

Well, it is worthy of Ross's horse, and it is really affectionate and righteous.

"I don't know, maybe it'......" Ye Ming's eyes flashed, "It's some trouble." ”

He originally thought that with Alex and Laura's foot injury, there should be no problem.

But the boy seems to have forgotten that in addition to the aura of the protagonist, Lao Ye also has the aura of all kinds of troubles to find the door.

Sometimes, it's not that you want to go for trouble...... It's trouble that comes to you.

"The footprints of wolves and the footprints of humans have gone this way...... But there is only one pair of footprints. ”

After observing for a while, the experienced old helmsman Greene quickly came to such a conclusion.

Several people looked at each other.

"I'll take a look with Jonah and I'll leave it to you."

"Hmm."

Few people would raise objections to Ye Ming's words, especially when this group of people had a good impression of him and reached the level of trust above them.

The boy beckoned, took the strong fat man, and walked towards the mountain.

There's only one road to the top, so they don't worry about going wrong or anything.

Take out your flashlight and shine a light in the dark.

Going up the road, in addition to the sound of rain, there was also a faint wolf howl in my ears.

There's no moon in this weather, so why are these creatures still running out and screaming?

Jonah clenched the shotgun in his hand, and his expression was very solemn.

Even a fat man with strong combat power does not dare to be careless in the face of such a ferocious thing as a wolf pack.

Tigers can't stand the wolves, can they?

In contrast, Ye Ming was very relaxed, and he still had the leisure time to pay attention to the surrounding houses and check their architectural styles.

The things here, just find an antiquity, and take it outside, it is estimated that it can be sold for a good price.

It's a pity that money doesn't seem to be of much use to him now.

Shaking his head, the boy looked ahead.

There, in the darkness, pupils flickering with a strange glow stared at them coldly.
