With a low roar, a few drops of dew splashed in the air. Just as they bounced off a serrated fern leaf, they were smashed into pieces by a berserk wolf mixed with gray and black fur. The adult male wolf opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of black and yellow sharp canines and two long sword teeth as it pounced towards Allen. Unfortunately, before he could bite Allen, a tactical saber pierced into the wolf's kiss from below and pierced through his brain.
The impact still pushed Allen back a few steps. He didn't even have time to pull out his saber. With a sweep of his right hand, Berserk Slaughter cut off the head of another berserk wolf.
"Get down!"
Lucy's shout sounded from behind him. Allen didn't think too much and immediately lowered his head. Several gunshots rang out in a row, echoing in the forest. A few berserk wolves that were about to rush up the slope were all shot in the head by Lucy. Only then did Allen pull out his saber, carry Kuang Tu, turn around and run out of the forest with Lucy.
In front of him was a grassland. The forest belt on the left was gradually thinning. After two to three hundred meters, there were only a few sporadic trees dotted with grayish-white rocks. In the end, the end of the forest belt bordered the edge of the mountain area. The mountain range rose and fell continuously, forming a complex fork in the mountain. Compared to that, escaping to the grassland was tantamount to suicide. Allen immediately pointed in the direction of the mountain area, "Quick, run that way!"
At this moment, the morning light had just risen, but the two of them had already been chased by the Berserk Wolf for an entire night. These dangerous species seemed to have been stimulated by something and became incomparably irritable. Allen and Lucy ran south, escaped into the original forest, and then turned west. The berserk wolf chased closely, occasionally letting the two of them get rid of it. However, after resting for a while, they were targeted by other wolves.
There were several packs of wolves in this area, and there were thousands of berserk wolves that were all driven in a certain planned route to drive Allen and Lucy in the designated direction. Fortunately, the committee member did not intend to kill the two of them just like that. Whenever the berserk wolf chased after them too quickly, the wavelength of the signal would be adjusted, causing the wolf pack to slow down. Only when Allen and his companion had increased the distance between them did they urge the wolves to chase after them.
Just like that, the man and the wolf chased each other for a whole night. By now, both sides were exhausted. Allen ran into the mountains with Lucy. His throat was dry, and his heart was beating so fast that it felt like his chest was going to be torn apart in the next second. All of this was a sign that he was running out of strength. He climbed a low hill and searched around, hoping to find a place where he could avoid the wolves.
At this rate, he and Lucy would be exhausted in less than two hours. At that time, the berserk wolf would easily tear their bodies apart.
"They're coming!" Lucy shouted. Behind them, a large number of berserk wolves had already rushed out of the forest. The berserk wolves running at the front were less than two hundred meters away from them, but due to the complex mountain path, these beasts could not run in a straight line like they did on the plain.
But this wouldn't delay them for long.
"Over there!" Allen finally found a suitable hiding spot. It was a crack in the mountain, only wide enough for one person to pass through. It was very difficult for berserk wolves to enter in groups. Using this crack in the mountain, they could temporarily hide for a while.
The two of them immediately ran down the slope and jumped down to the ground. A berserk wolf followed them from behind. Allen swung Berserk Slaughter over and slapped it on the head, sending the wolf flying. Lucy shot it again and killed it. The two of them didn't have time to care about the result and immediately ran towards the crack in the mountain. The crack looked quite deep, and strands of sunlight shone through the crack in the mountain above. One could see that it was a narrow space on the outside and wide inside. Both of them were delighted and hurriedly shrank into the crack.
Lucy was petite and went in first. Allen cut off the rear. After seeing that Lucy had already gone in, he followed behind and squeezed in. After a while, they arrived at the cave inside. It was very dry and the ground was rough rock. Lucy was so tired that she sat down on the ground and gasped for breath as soon as she entered. Allen also leaned against the stone wall and gasped for breath. The low roar of a berserk wolf sounded from outside, and he hurriedly made a silent gesture towards Lucy.
The two of them held their breaths, and a large group of berserk wolves immediately passed by the cave. They didn't seem to notice anything unusual and were still searching for Allen and the others. Just as Allen was rejoicing that he had escaped a calamity, a brown-furred male wolf suddenly stopped. It sniffed at the entrance of the mountain crack with its big nose and then howled towards the cave.
"We've been discovered!" Allen said helplessly.
Lucy looked around. There was no way out, but the mountain above her cracked, revealing a crack. However, the crack was too narrow, and the sun could only cast a ray of light. In that narrow space, not to mention Allen, even Lucy herself would find it difficult to crawl out. At this time, the male wolf had already drilled in. Although the crack in the mountain was not wide, it was more than enough for a berserk wolf to enter.
Allen knew that he couldn't let the wolves enter the cave. Otherwise, he and Lucy would really become food under the wolf's kiss. He raised his tactical saber and immediately stabbed it into the eyes of the berserk wolf like black lightning. The berserk wolf felt pain and became even more ferocious. It opened its claws and slapped at Allen. Allen avoided his head and used the light armor in front of him to take a claw from it. The armor on his chest was scratched by the wolf's claws, causing sparks to fly everywhere. Allen took advantage of this moment to twist and flick his saber, directly prying off half of its head!
Wolf blood spurted out. Allen didn't have the time to wipe off the wolf blood. Another berserk wolf had already drilled in. At the end of his saber, a gunshot rang out from behind him. The berserk wolf's head burst open, but it had already been taken away by Lucy. Allen nodded. He had a long saber in his left hand and a berserk slaughter in his right, guarding the entrance against the attacks of the pack of wolves. Lucy shot from behind. Her marksmanship was accurate and ruthless, and she almost never missed. She could always accurately hit the eyes or ears of the berserk wolf, killing it in one shot.
Allen raised his sabers and defended this fragile position without retreating an inch. His thin body was like a light boat in a sea of rage, but no matter how fierce the wind and waves were, the light boat could always turn danger into safety. In the blink of an eye, Allen had already turned into a bloody man. There was the blood of a berserk wolf, and there was also his own blood. At this time, even how to get injured and which part to choose was a skill. If it wasn't for the fact that he had obtained this light armor as a reward because of his ranking, no matter how good he was at calculating, he would have long since fallen under the wolf's claws.
More and more wolf corpses piled up in the crevice, making it difficult for the pack of wolves to attack again. However, these dangerous species were not only fierce, but also very smart. When the mountain crevice was blocked by the corpses, the berserk wolves began to drag the corpses of their own kind out and attack the fragile defensive line. Every minute was a long time for Allen. Gradually, his eyes turned red from killing. The wildness in his body was aroused by the endless attacks of the berserk wolf, and Allen's eyes became redder and redder.
In the end, he didn't even deliberately avoid the attack. The berserk wolf gave him a claw, and Allen gave it a knife.
Attack with attack, kill with kill!
With a loud sound, the military tactical saber was broken in the head of a gray-haired berserk wolf. Allen kicked the wolf corpse away and threw the broken saber into the eyes of a black wolf behind him. With a shout, Kuang Tu raised his saber and activated the patterns on the blade. An energy blade ejected from the tip of the blade and forcefully slashed into the black wolf's head. The sharp energy blade split its head into two.
At this moment, Allen's hand softened, and the sharp energy blade disappeared. The lines on the broadsword dimmed again, and Allen's physical strength and origin energy were exhausted, so he was no longer able to hold onto Kuang Tu. With a bang, Kuang Tu fell to the ground, and Allen also sat on the ground. Looking at Lucy, the ammunition behind her had already run out, and she was taking out a dagger to tear it apart. The two of them smiled helplessly and prepared for the pack of wolves to charge straight in.
At the same time, on the other side of the cliff outside the cave, Metallon reached out and gripped a thick-backed sword behind him. The pack of wolves continued to attack, and he could tell that Allen and the others were already at the end of their strong bows. Even though if he made a move, it would definitely cause some "international disputes", but he couldn't care less about it now. However, seeing that Allen was able to last for nearly an hour, he was also deeply surprised by this brat's tenacity and ruthlessness.
Just as Metallon was about to attack, the pack of wolves seemed to have received a new order. One by one, the berserk wolves retreated unwillingly, leaving behind a pile of wolf corpses outside the mountain crevice. A moment later, they were completely gone.
Allen barely lay on the wolf corpse and looked out. Only when he saw the pack of wolves retreat did he heave a sigh of relief. His vision darkened and he almost fainted. But in this dangerous place, how could he allow himself to do that? So he bit the tip of his tongue and used the pain to keep himself awake.
"Sit down." Lucy helped him sit down against the cave wall and carefully took off the defensive light armor on his body.
When the close-fitting tactical uniform was also taken off, Lucy sucked in a breath of cold air. Allen's body was riddled with wounds, and his small body was crisscrossed with countless wounds. Many of them were torn out by the claws of the berserk wolves, while a few were bitten and torn off small pieces of skin and blood. Lucy took a deep breath and quickly took out the emergency medicine from Allen's bag and began to clean his wounds.
Seeing Lucy's orderly movements, Allen was a little surprised. If it was an ordinary girl, she would have been scared to tears when she saw his injuries. Lucy's hands were very steady. She used the fastest speed to clean, stop the bleeding, and sew up the serious wounds. The faster she was, the less pain Allen would suffer. Fortunately, Allen had taken away the emergency medicine at that time, and it even included a set of simple battlefield surgical tools. Otherwise, Lucy really wouldn't have been able to save him.
It was more than an hour later when she finished dealing with Allen's wounds. When Lucy finished the last stitch for him, her hands finally trembled and her energy was completely exhausted. She reluctantly put on Allen's coat and sat down beside him. "I really didn't know that you could be so crazy when you risked your life."
"If I don't go crazy, I won't survive." Allen said with his eyes closed.
He knew that Lucy wouldn't understand. Allen wasn't old, but what he had experienced was far beyond the imagination of his peers. In the past five years, there were many times when he had to risk his life crazily to have a chance to survive. Living with a snow wolf was not easy, and Allen was raised by Bai Fang like a cub. In a pack of wolves, cubs also needed to hunt and face strong enemies alone.
If they couldn't survive, they would be abandoned by the pack of wolves. This was a world of natural selection.
