Zhao Fu sent two people to drive the herd of Azure Oxen back before continuing onwards. At that moment, a sound came from a bush nearby, causing everyone to stop. Following this, a Violent Flame Rabbit jumped out from the bush. This Violent Flame Rabbit was smaller than the one they had killed before.
The Violent Flame Rabbit's temper was quite explosive, and as soon as it came out, it dared to attack Zhao Fu's group. A Fireball flew towards Zhao Fu's group.
The Shieldbearer raised his shield and blocked the Fireball. The Fireball's might only forced the Shieldbearer back a step and did not take any damage.
Zhao Fu ordered the Archers to attack. Facing so many arrows, the Violent Flame Rabbit quickly dodged, but it was still shot to death. However, after it died, it did not drop an Elemental Orb, making Zhao Fu feel quite disappointed.
They continued onwards and encountered another 30 or so Black Mountain Goats. They used traps and successfully captured them, and it was like this for the next few days.
However, they managed to tame many wild beasts: 36 Wild Boars, 85 Azure Cows, and 215 Black Mountain Goats.
They did not obtain a single magic skill, nor did they find any traces of horses. Over the next few days, Wang Dawu repaired all of the weapons and armor that they had obtained from the crack.
Now that their equipment had been completely changed, most of the Archers and Shieldbearers in Zhao Fu's group used Blue grade weapons, while the Infantrymen all used Blue grade weapons.
After Wang Dawu repaired all of these, Zhao Fu ordered him to forge special equipment. This equipment was something that Zhao Fu, Bai Qi, and Li Si had agreed on, and it was specifically made to deal with Skeletons.
Now, Zhao Fu and his group continued to explore the inner regions of the Forest of Horrors, hoping to find more magic beasts or horses.
At that moment, Zhao Fu and his group passed by a valley. Suddenly, a few Gray Wolves rushed out, but they were quickly shot to death by the Archers. Zhao Fu felt quite interested in the valley, so he decided to go in and take a look.
Unexpectedly, he discovered a lair. Now, Zhao Fu was hiding on a hillside in the distance, observing the situation below, not daring to approach.
In the valley below, there was a piece of flat land that was nearly three thousand meters wide. It was overgrown with weeds, but in the middle of the flat land, there was a platform made of stone bricks. It was very similar to the starting place of an ordinary village, but on the platform floated a stone sculpture that looked like a wolf.
There were many Grey Wolves around the platform, frolicking in the valley. There were about 400 to 500 of them, and there was even a Wolf King among them. Its body was as big as a tiger, and its body was covered in soft gray fur. Its eyes were sharp, and there was a tuft of silver fur on its head.
Although he didn't find any Magical Beasts or horses, Zhao Fu was still pleasantly surprised.
Zhao Fu immediately led his men back to gather the troops. There were a total of 326 soldiers and they headed towards Gray Wolf Valley.
At the start, Zhao Fu didn't choose to directly attack. If he couldn't suppress the Grey Wolves, Zhao Fu wouldn't choose to directly attack. As such, from the start, Zhao Fu and his men hid.
Zhao Fu had his people set up traps to lure the Grey Wolves out. It was actually quite simple – they just needed to use fresh meat to attract the Grey Wolves. The traps didn't need to be too close, as wolves had a good sense of smell. This way, they would only need to attract ten or so Grey Wolves.
This time, Zhao Fu killed a few wild deer and split them into a few pieces before scattering a large amount of blood on the ground. In order to ensure that the traps would be successful, the people who set up the traps had to roll in the mud and use the mud to cover their scent. At the same time, they also had to mix in the smell of pepper and garlic.
The plan was quite successful, and soon, the smell of blood attracted ten or so Grey Wolves. The Grey Wolves were quite vigilant and didn't immediately pounce on the deer meat. Instead, they sniffed in the distance, and after finding that there was no danger, they slowly approached.
Following this, the Grey Wolves came to the deer meat but didn't directly eat it. Instead, they lowered their heads and sniffed. If it was Zhao Fu who poisoned it, it definitely wouldn't work. Following this, the Grey Wolves didn't find any danger and were about to eat.
Swish! Swish! Swish …
Arrows shot out from the forest towards the Grey Wolves. The Grey Wolves were given a big fright and turned to run. However, most of them were still killed, and a few managed to escape. However, they were intercepted by Zhao Fu's people.
At that moment, one of the Grey Wolves stopped and raised its head, preparing to howl. Zhao Fu was quite startled – this howl would definitely draw out all of the Grey Wolves, and his plan would fail. As such, he quickly drew his bow and shot an arrow.
The arrow drew an arc in the air, flashing a cold light.
Puchi!
The arrow pierced into the Grey Wolf's neck, causing it to fall to the ground and whimper before twitching and dying. At the same time, Zhao Fu gave the order to quickly kill the other Grey Wolves so that they wouldn't be able to make a single sound.
Everyone else obeyed and quickly killed the remaining Grey Wolves. Following this, they continued to use this method to draw out more Grey Wolves, but they became even more careful.
Just like that, they used this method to kill 213 Grey Wolves. After so many Grey Wolves had died, the Grey Wolf King within the valley sensed something and stood up. It walked to a large boulder and raised its head high.
"Awoo!"
A massive howl sounded throughout the valley, and all of the Grey Wolves that had been playing or eating stopped what they were doing and raised their heads to howl.
"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo … "
Wolf howls sounded out in all directions, causing countless birds in the valley to fly into the air.
At that moment, Zhao Fu and his soldiers got into formation and walked with heavy footsteps, giving off an oppressive and austere aura that only the army had as they walked into the valley.
The Grey Wolf King stood on a large boulder and looked at Zhao Fu's group. It furiously howled, and the Grey Wolves started to run as fast as they could towards Zhao Fu's group. 300 Grey Wolves flooded towards them like a gray flood.
"Get into formation!"
Zhao Fu loudly shouted. The Spearmen and Shieldbearers took three steps forwards and aimed their spears at the Grey Wolves. The Archers drew their bows, and the Gnomes set up their crossbows.
"Fire!"
Zhao Fu loudly shouted when he saw that the Grey Wolves had entered their attack range.
Swish! Swish! Swish …
The sound of the air being torn could be heard as arrows flew out, forming a rain of arrows that shot towards the Grey Wolves.
Puff! Puff! Puff …
The rain of arrows descended like raindrops, killing Grey Wolves one by one. However, there were also Grey Wolves that charged through the rain of arrows.
"Fire!"
Zhao Fu once again shouted.
Arrows once again flew out, forming a rain of arrows that enveloped the Grey Wolves. Grey Wolves once again fell to the ground and died.
However, by now, the Grey Wolves had reached the soldiers, but the soldiers stabbed out with their spears.
Puff! Puff! Puff …
Blood flew everywhere as the Grey Wolves' bodies were pierced by the spears. A single Grey Wolf wasn't very strong, and only a pack of Grey Wolves were strong. However, after two waves of arrows, only 150 or so Grey Wolves remained. Even though they were a pack, Zhao Fu had twice as many people as they did. Moreover, they had all sorts of soldiers and had a solid defense, making the battle completely one-sided.
