The shotgun exploded with a "bang", the dire wolf's sharp claws rubbed against the floor tiles, and roared ferociously. A street fight between man and wolf broke out under the early morning night sky. Tonight's moon is destined to be covered in blood.
On the other side, Zhou Qing was running with one hand on his temple, trying to stimulate his ability to sense danger. Within Ming Ming's sensory range, he felt several individual auras that made his hair stand on end. He deliberately avoided sending out danger signals. The individual ran downstairs in Area C of the residence.
Zhou Qing glanced through the door of 202 and saw that the young man was already standing outside. He was lined with black long sleeves and trousers, and wore a coat made of brown and yellow animal skins. He was carrying a bulging luggage, and his right hand was holding a long knife that was shiny black in the faint light.
"Wu Qi, come down quickly! There's a crisis!" Zhou Qing shouted.
Wu Qi clapped one hand on the railing, turned over and jumped directly from the second floor, landing smoothly. He hummed his nose slightly at first, then quickly fell to the ground, listening to the sounds on the ground with his ears.
"Wu Qi, what are you doing? Come with me along the street to the entrance of the town. I don't know what the situation is now." Zhou Qing said anxiously.
"The weight of each individual is about 130kg to 150kg, and there are about thirty in number. One individual is extremely large, weighing more than 200kg, and they all move on four legs, scattered from east to west, northwest, and northeast. . The wind blowing from the north is mixed with their scent. This smell is very familiar. I smelled it yesterday, it was dire wolves."
Wu Qi jumped to his feet and said a series of words, leaving Zhou Qing stunned.
"I have heightened sense of danger, and I can't even know it so clearly. How did you... No, you mean the dire wolf has invaded the neighborhood!" Zhou Qing's eyes widened and he said in disbelief.
"That's right, in order to reduce the casualties among residents, come with me!" Wu Qi's voice was like ice fished out of the sea, without a trace of emotion. Including the previously reported data and location of the intruder, it is just like an experienced hunter mechanically detecting and analyzing it.
His 16-year-old body was like a muscular cheetah. After accumulating strength, he ejected. Zhou Qing immediately drew his gun and followed Wu Qi's pace, but unexpectedly, he was thrown more than 10 meters away in just three breaths.
"So fast! Even if I lose some weight, at least I am still a real mercenary. Why is his physical fitness so terrifying!" Zhou Qing was sweating profusely while chasing. In just a few seconds, he was slightly beaten by Wu Qi. The tip of the iceberg revealed gave people a continuous shock.
In fact, this is not even the tip of the iceberg.
Soon, Wu Qi noticed that Zhou Qing could not keep up with him, and then slowed down a bit. Before Zhou Qing could realize why Wu Qi suddenly slowed down, he saw Wu Qi turning into the alley on the right.
Zhou Qing followed Wu Qi and turned several corners in succession, running in the dark and damp alley for about a minute. Along the way, Zhou Qing did not forget to use his danger perception ability to sense the dangerous individuals around him, which surprised him. It was Wu Qi's route that completely avoided these individuals surrounding them.
Just as Wu Qi turned to the right again, a shrill scream suddenly came from the alley on Zhou Qing's left, accompanied by a creepy wolf howl. Zhou Qing's expression froze, and his fast steps suddenly stopped.
Zhou Qing yelled at Wu Qi's back: "Stop, someone over there has encountered a dire wolf, we have to help him, otherwise he will die."
Wu Qi did not hesitate. He said coldly: "With the power of a few mercenaries and me, it is impossible to quickly annihilate all the dire wolves that have sneaked into the town. These beasts are very cunning, and they bully the weak and fear the strong. When they encounter hunters, they will It will evade in a roundabout way, and will pounce on prey when it encounters it. Therefore, if you want to reduce casualties, the only way is to capture the thief first and capture the king first."
"But," Zhou Qing struggled to say with sweat on his forehead, "it's too..."
Wu Qi's footsteps moved again, and he said: "If you want to go, you can go alone, but if you are alone, you are likely to be surrounded by multiple dire wolves and bitten to death."
Wu Qi's figure disappeared completely if he didn't keep up. Zhou Qing was caught in a dilemma, and finally gritted his teeth and chased after him.
After a long while, the two finally ran out of the alley and arrived at a spacious street. The horror in front of them immediately pierced their eyes. The dirty streets were littered with the corpses of residents and hungry people who had been dismembered by dire wolves. Many people had incomplete limbs and were lying in a pool of bloody flesh, emitting a pungent smell. Their eyes were all wide open, with terrifying looks, as if they were facing a scene even more terrifying than mountains of swords and seas of fire.
A nauseating feeling surged up from Zhou Qing's stomach, making him want to retch. Although he was used to seeing human corpses, there were corpses of human beings bitten and dismembered by dire wolves everywhere. This was his first time. . Among them, there were two corpses lying beside the telephone poles that he had only seen yesterday. They were a skinny mother and a dark-skinned little boy who was still working hard despite not having enough to eat. He saw them at the food distribution square, and after repelling the dire wolf attack, he used his share of food to relieve their mother and son.
But now, the little boy's belly had a bloody wound opened by the dire wolf. His mother used her thin arms to protect the child, but the dire wolf bit her neck off.
"These bitches, ah!" Zhou Qing clenched his fists hard and roared, all the veins on his arms and head popped out. He wished he could have appeared a few minutes ago and killed the dire wolf that besieged the mother and son with a gun.
Wu Qi was also trapped in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and a pool of blood spread to the bottom of his alligator boots, but his expression never changed much. There were corpses everywhere. He had seen so many of them in the bloody hunting life in the mountains. Even if they were replaced by humans, they were just a different race.
Even so, Wu Qi still felt a little uncomfortable. He held his breath silently, automatically blocking out all the noise around him, and deepened into a realm of wild perception that had been tempered for a long time.
The moment he found his target, Wu Qi ejected without warning. He jumped to the second floor of the building and pointed his long knife directly at the window sill of the balcony. The floor-to-ceiling windows were intact, with only five faint claw marks on the edge window frames. In the dim light, ordinary people could not detect them at all.
In an instant, Wu Qi's hair suddenly stood up, and he jumped back instinctively. At the same moment, a majestic black shadow shattered the glass of the balcony, and its fierce front paws suddenly swung towards Wu Qi's neck! Both were in the air, Wu Qi quickly raised his long knife to block, and the steel-like wolf claws collided with Wu Qi's long knife, making a harsh friction sound. The two were separated by the force and fell back to the ground at the same time.
Zhou Qing was once again horrified by Wu Qi's acumen, and even more horrified by the wisdom of this giant dire wolf hiding in the second floor of the building to make a sneak attack. Behind those wolf eyes seemed to have the strategic wisdom to pursue humans. This is the dire wolf that invaded the safe zone tonight. The alpha wolf of the pack!
