Zhang Heng raised the Pestilence Bone Bow in his hand and aimed at the shepherd dog that was lying on the ground, seemingly asleep.
At this distance, he was confident that he could kill it with one shot. Shooting the shepherd dog's head would not cause it too much pain. Leaving this world in its sleep was probably the last thing Zhang Heng could do for it.
But the next moment, just as Zhang Heng was about to release the bowstring, the shepherd dog suddenly opened its eyes.
The man and dog stared at each other for about half a second. After that, the shepherd dog let out a low growl, seemingly trying to get up from the ground.
But then, an arrow pierced its head!
Although Zhang Heng failed to send the shepherd dog away in its sleep as planned, his arrow still hit the target cleanly. After the Shepherd Dog was hit by the arrow, its body swayed and fell to the ground, no longer moving.
After that, Zhang Heng put away the Pestilence Bone Bow and turned to leave.
However, just as he took a step forward, he stopped again.
Zhang Heng heard something behind him. The shepherd dog was killed on the spot by his arrow, and it was now a corpse. Zhang Heng saw it clearly, so he was sure that it wasn't the shepherd dog that made the noise.
Zhang Heng turned around and saw another poodle trotting out of the badminton arena's locker room.
Zhang Heng frowned. He didn't expect there to be more than one dog in the stadium. When he chose this place as their base, he, Kratos, and the others had searched the place thoroughly. At that time, they didn't find any other animals, so these two dogs must have come later.
Zhang Heng just didn't know why they came here. Other than the room where the players stored their items, there was no food in the stadium. Logically speaking, dogs shouldn't be attracted here. Could it be that the militia's hunting outside drove them here? After all, compared to the streets and the wilderness, the stadium was indeed safer for stray dogs.
These thoughts flashed in Zhang Heng's mind, but he didn't think much about it. After that, he took the Pestilence Bone Bow from his back and pulled the bowstring.
Zhang Heng didn't know what the relationship between the poodle and the shepherd dog was, but it seemed that the two dogs knew each other. He expressed his regret for killing the poodle's companion, but for safety's sake, he didn't intend to let the poodle go.
But just as he was about to shoot the second arrow, he saw another dog coming out of the locker room. It was a Spanish retriever, and it looked much more powerful than the poodle outside.
And that wasn't the end. Behind the Spanish retriever was a bulldog, followed by a Great Dane and a mixed-breed dog.
Zhang Heng had already noticed that something was wrong. After that, he heard movement outside the window behind him. Several stray dogs were squeezing in through the half-closed window. There were also stray dogs in the direction of the bathroom and the staircase that Zhang Heng had come up from earlier. They surrounded Zhang Heng in the middle, seemingly seeking justice for their dead companions.
If other people were here, they would have been scared to death when they saw this scene. Although the fighting power of stray dogs was not particularly strong, and there were many small toy dogs among them, once they gathered together, they were almost invincible in this abandoned city.
Zhang Heng was the only one who could remain calm. He roughly counted and found that there were more than twenty dogs surrounding him, and more were joining in.
If Zhang Heng was right, this was probably the largest pack of dogs in Pripyaji City. A few days ago, many of them were good companions for humans and good companions to guard the house. But now, they looked at Zhang Heng as if he was their prey.
It could be seen that these dogs had been hungry for a while, and they had been restless recently. They were chased by militias with guns, and their impression of humans had plummeted. Zhang Heng had just killed one of them. Judging from the current situation, the shepherd dog that died was likely to be the leader of the pack.
With new and old hatred coming together, it would be strange if these stray dogs were polite to Zhang Heng. In fact, before they got close to Zhang Heng, they had already begun to growl, barking one after another.
As a result, the bulldog that was the second closest to Zhang Heng had its head pierced by an arrow in the blink of an eye, following in the footsteps of its companion. Zhang Heng didn't intend to be polite at all. It was obviously impossible to resolve the current situation peacefully, so he didn't wait for the dogs to gather together and launched an attack first.
After Zhang Heng shot an arrow, his hand did not stop, and he quickly pulled out a second arrow from the quiver. At this time, the dogs also began to speed up and rushed at him.
Zhang Heng kicked the poodle that barked the most fiercely and was the closest to him, and the second arrow nailed the spaniel that had jumped into the air to the ground. Perhaps the nuclear radiation in the city had affected the nerves of these dogs, but after witnessing two of their companions being shot dead, the remaining stray dogs showed no intention of retreating. Instead, they pounced on Zhang Heng even more fiercely.
Zhang Heng could feel the fanatical atmosphere permeating the pack of dogs. He turned sideways to avoid the bite of two dogs from the front, but then the three dogs on his right side jumped from the ground one after another. There were also sneak attacks from behind and on the right side.
Such a situation meant that Zhang Heng was literally surrounded by enemies on all sides. Even if there was a militia team with guns here, there was a high probability that they would not be able to withstand such a fierce attack.
But there were two of them? The dog was about to bite Zhang Heng's thigh, but the next moment, the enemy standing in front of them suddenly disappeared.
Two?? The dog missed its target, and its body fell from the air. It was a little puzzled as to where the enemy had gone, but the next moment, an arrow fell from above and took its life.
At the critical moment, Zhang Heng opened the Shadow Wings behind him, flew directly from the ground to the air, and quickly distanced himself from the dogs. He did not rise too high, however. After making sure that he would not be bitten by the stray dogs again, Zhang Heng began to draw his bow and arrow, taking advantage of the twelve-second effect of the Shadow Wings to harvest the dogs on the ground.
With Zhang Heng's Level 2 archery skills, every time the bowstring sounded, a dog fell to the ground and died. And Zhang Heng first picked the larger stray dogs, which were more aggressive. It didn't take long for most of the dogs to die, and most of the remaining dogs were small toy dogs.
