Chapter 137 Lure the Enemy
Chapter 137 Lure the Enemy
Huge trees shot into the sky, their sharp branches piercing the bodies of the dire wolves and devouring their flesh with ruthless abandon.
For the wolves, the green that appears on the ice field does not symbolize life, but rather bloody slaughter.
Qi Xiangwan took a breath and said, "You're really lame, hiding behind the young people."
Zhao Qingshan rolled her eyes and retorted, "I'm only 28, in the prime of my life. What's wrong with being protected by a handsome younger man? I'm just a delicate support staff member." As soon as she finished speaking, she turned her glowing hand, and a scalpel that had quietly appeared in her palm was tinged with a faint light. It then stabbed fiercely into the eye of an ice wolf that had ambushed Qi Xiangwan from behind.
Blood splattered out and landed on Qi Xiangwan's white down jacket, causing her expression to change. "My last coat!"
Enraged, Qi Xiangwan grabbed the wolf whose eye Zhao Qingshan had poked and slammed it to the ground with a loud thud. Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the icy ground, creating a large hole.
"A violent maniac," Zhao Qingshan muttered, smoothing the stray hairs from her face.
"Enough nonsense." Qi Xiangwan's face darkened as she watched the black dots approaching in the distance. "They've all come out over there. Captain Tong went to find that old Russian to kill the leader wolf."
The base had previously investigated and found that after the emergence of a level four leader, Alpha Wolf, the dire wolves became more aggressive. There were already few wolves in Antarctica, but because the wolf packs mutated first and gained an advantage with few rivals, their numbers increased significantly, though they were relatively scattered. This level four dire wolf consciously began to conquer other wolf packs in various locations. The story of it conquering other wolf packs is enough for RBC to make a documentary with hundreds of episodes, and it might even have a title like "The Origins of the Antarctic Empire: The Conquest History of the Dire Wolf Leader".
What's left for Qi Xiangwan and the other unfortunate people stationed in Antarctica is pure tragedy. At first glance, the number of the dire wolves that are still providing support is so small that it's hard to tell.
"Several hundred is an understatement," Zhao Qingshan said, his scalp tingling. "Fortunately, the ordinary people have all been evacuated. Those remaining are all superhumans who came to Antarctica for training and stationing. How is the evacuation of the wounded going?"
"It was too sudden. We arranged for people to retreat to the other side, but if they couldn't hold that position, we're finished. A few people can't protect a bunch of missing limbs. And these wolves are all running towards us. It feels like we've been ambushed." Qi Xiangwan said in a deep voice. She glanced at the battle situation and noticed that Pei Hanxing had been lured a bit far by the wolves. Seeing that the wolves were about to use a tactic to lure them in, she quickly shouted, "Come back!"
Fearing that the young people might act rashly and recklessly, Qi Xiangwan flicked a handful of large sword-leaf seeds from her sleeve. The seeds grew rapidly after landing, and in a moment, they matured into blade-shaped leaves that, stimulated by her supernatural abilities, burst forth from the plant. Like a sharp sword piercing through the cold wind, they plunged into the several ice wolves that were trying to surround Pei Hanxing from behind.
The distance was too far and the aim was off; only one wolf was shot in the abdomen. But it scared the wolves who were playing a tactical game, and they didn't dare to make any more moves. In addition, the commotion was quite loud, and Pei Hanxing also noticed the wolf pack's unusual movements. She began to slowly retreat towards Qi Xiangwan while fighting, and safely rejoined the two of them.
"Be careful. Haven't you learned the three stories about wolves in your textbook? These mutated wolves are very clever," Qi Xiangwan warned.
"Thank you." Pei Hanxing wasn't naive; he knew Qi Xiangwan had saved him. Otherwise, surrounded by a pack of wolves, his superpowers would have been completely wasted, like throwing a meat bun to a dog.
Zhao Qingshan was worried that Pei Hanxing was too proud and might get into trouble if Qi Xiangwan scolded her again, so she mediated, saying, "Let's help each other, let's help each other."
The three worked together to form an encirclement, and with the help of reinforcements who arrived later, they finally managed to keep the pack of wolves outside the camp.
