Night, there was a bright moonlight tonight, but unfortunately, in the lush forest at the end of spring, only the shadows of the trees could be seen. There were some rustling sounds in the forest, and there was also the roar of some animals in the distance.
Bruce sat on the ground with his back against the trunk and his eyes closed. But he obviously didn't sleep. Every time there was a little noise, he would always open his eyes vigilantly, using his eyes that had adapted to the darkness to search for possible dangers under the faint moonlight.
In fact, it was very dangerous to be in the wild like this. There was no place to hide, and there were no repellent drugs. Fortunately, it would be dawn soon, and being alert all night was nothing for Bruce.
At this moment, there were some sounds around him. It was the sound of some heavy objects stepping on dead branches and leaves.
Bruce stood up immediately. Sitting for a long time made his legs a little numb, but there was no weight on his legs, so the feeling quickly faded. He looked around, and several pairs of green eyes appeared in the darkness. One, two … a total of five pairs.
“Emily，Emily。” Bruce whispered to the woman who was still sleeping, in order to prevent the sudden sound from stimulating the animals in the dark. He lifted his trouser leg, took off the knife tied to his right leg, and slowly opened it. It was a folding knife, not the kind of folding knife that hid the blade at home. The folding here referred to the folding of the blade. Each blade was about 30 centimeters long, and there were three sections in total. Bruce stretched and fixed it, and a long knife appeared in his hand. But because it was a folding knife, it was destined that he couldn't stab and cut too hard, or it would be easy to bend or break.
Prentiss quickly woke up. She was a little confused at first, but when she saw Bruce's defensive posture, she understood what was going on. She looked around and saw a few pairs of green eyes. She suppressed her voice and exclaimed, "Oh! Oh! Oh!
my
God, what's that? "She quickly took out a gun from her waist.
"Wolves, five of them. It's best not to shoot. It's difficult to aim in the dark, and it may alarm other things. "Bruce whispered, holding the handle of the knife tightly.
"What should we do?"
"I can deal with them. You just stand here and be careful. I will try my best to hold off as many wolves as possible. Of course, if a wolf pounces on you, don't hesitate to shoot."
"Wait, Bruce …" Before Prentiss could finish his sentence, Bruce had already walked forward with his sword in hand.
As if they had sensed his intention to attack, the five wolves rushed up from all directions.
He took a step forward and dodged the wolf on his left. The wolf on his right was faster, so he kicked it from the bottom up. Then, he pointed the sword in his right hand at the wolf's wide open mouth. He bent the fingers of his left hand downward and nimbly took out the dagger hidden on his left arm. He followed the wolf's momentum and stabbed it into its stomach. The wolf on his left was still more than a meter away. He had enough time to pull out the dagger and deal with it. The wolf on his left was behind him. He only needed to turn around and he could block the attack with the wolf's mouth hanging on his sword.
Although there was only a faint light and he could not see behind him, he could still use his five senses, including hearing, to understand the situation around him. This was the "Mind's Eye". When one's senses were enhanced to the limit, another kind of perception was derived. It could also sense danger.
This might be a kind of talent. For some warriors who had been through hundreds of battles, they would have this kind of intuition or sixth sense. However, for most people, even if they had been through hundreds of battles, it was still not enough. This was an objective way of perceiving things. It was very easy to be broken by subjective imagination. For example, when you felt that something was dangerous to you, it would interfere with the perception of the "Mind's Eye" and cause the body to receive a false feedback.
As for Bruce, he had been relentlessly training his current body. Although this could only be considered as a strong body for ordinary people, he could completely control it. He had previously reached the realm of "Mind's Eye", and he would not forget this feeling. Therefore, he could also do it now.
But at this time, Bruce suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right calf. This caused him to make mistakes in the small range of movements that he had just started. His body tilted slightly. Although he quickly adjusted, it was almost fatal for this battle.
Bruce quickly used all his strength to turn around. He used the knife in his right hand to block the wolf's bite. He did not have time to pull out the dagger in his left hand. He instantly made a choice. Instead of biting his neck, he sent his left arm directly into the wolf's mouth.
He pulled out the knife from the wolf's mouth that had lost its strength after being bitten by its companion. He raised his left arm, leg, waist, shoulder, and all the way to his arm. He used all his strength to cut the wolf's waist and abdomen that was biting his left arm. That wolf was directly cut in half …
Next was the wolf that had dodged and was kicked to the side. It was ready to pounce and bite its companion again. He quickly used the knife to stab the green eyes of the wolf and added another stab to the body that was not completely dead. At this point, the five wolves were finished. It took no more than five minutes.
Bruce only felt his body go soft and fell to the ground. When he put down the knife, his arm was still trembling slightly. He had used up all his strength in a short time. He looked at the bottom of his right foot. There was a snake whose head had been stepped on. When he turned around, it was thrown down and then trampled to death by his foot.
It was a non-venomous snake. The pain caused by it was not worth mentioning in most cases. There were only a few drops of blood. But at that time, it affected his strength for a moment and caused serious consequences. The wolf's head with only half of its body left was still embedded in his left arm. The wolf's fangs opened a few holes in his arm.
"Oh, Bruce, are you okay?" Prentiss turned on the flashlight and ran in the direction of Bruce. For Prentiss, she only saw a few shadows in the darkness, heard the beast's breathing, and occasionally the moonlight shining through the gaps in the trees and reflecting the silver light of the knife. In just a few minutes, all of these disappeared.
"I'm fine." The large amount of blood loss made Bruce feel dizzy. He lay on the ground in a daze.
The flashlight beam wandered around Bruce's body. Prentiss quickly saw the condition of his left arm. "Oh, God, your arm is bleeding non-stop." Apparently, a wolf's fang had bitten the artery in his arm. The blood fell to the ground and quickly gathered in a small pool. "I'm going to get this thing off your arm and stop the bleeding."
Bruce struggled to sit up. "I'll do it. Don't hurt your hand. There are a lot of bacteria and microbes on the wolf's fang. It can easily cause some serious consequences. Of course, I often hunt and have been injected with vaccines."
Bruce held the wolf's jaw with his right hand and lifted his left arm directly. Then, after the wolf opened its mouth, he tilted his left arm and took it out. Obviously, this aggravated the injury on his left arm.
"What are you doing, Bruce!"
Bruce looked at Prentiss's angry face and felt that something was wrong. He quickly covered his head. "I'm dizzy."
Prentiss's attention was immediately diverted. "I have to press the bleeding first and then bandage it with something."
Bruce picked up the knife and casually wiped the blood on his pants. Then, he tilted his head and bit the collar of his shirt. He used the knife to cut a line. Seeing Prentiss's gaze, he tilted his head and smiled. "Bandage version 0.5." Seeing that Prentiss's eyes were a little wet, Bruce looked down uncomfortably.
It didn't take long for Bruce to successfully stop the bleeding. Almost half of the shirt was tied around his hand. Of course, this was definitely not because of the simple and crude method of pressing and tying to stop the bleeding. It was because of his ability. His body still had the ability to regenerate faster than normal and could be controlled when he was awake. In order not to expose himself, he only used it to stop the bleeding.
"We have to leave here now. The strong smell of blood will attract a lot of things in the forest." Bruce stood up with Prentiss's help. He endured the movement and tried to put as little weight on Prentiss as possible.
When they moved to a place with the wind and sat down, the sky was already white. Bruce felt that he was about to lose consciousness. When he was helped to sit down, he almost directly lay on the ground.
"Bruce!" Prentiss almost screamed. She also squatted weakly beside Bruce. She held Bruce's face. "Look at me, look at me, Bruce, don't sleep!"
Bruce tried to look at her as she said. He did have to keep himself awake. If he lost consciousness and was found to have no scars on his body at dawn … Would he be captured and studied for the purpose of super hemostatic drugs 1, 2, and 3? Bruce shuddered at his own imagination.
"Let's talk about your family. Your mother, what's her name?"
Bruce looked at the blurry scene in front of him. After hearing her question, it took him a few seconds to realize what she was talking about. "Tina, Tina Jones."
"Okay, Tina, a girl full of energy? What about your father? What's his name? "Prentiss's voice seemed to be trembling.
"Father? No … "
Prentiss was silent for a while. She felt that her mind was a little blank. She tried to think of the question. "Oh yeah, you said that you were vaccinated when you were hunting. Don't you usually get vaccinated when you're bitten?"
"When you're not strong enough, it's easy to be bitten." Bruce was now answering Prentiss's question almost mechanically.
"You mean, you always fight with the prey in close combat?!" Prentiss was a little incredulous. Then she saw Bruce in a daze. "Wait, Bruce? Don't sleep, listen to me. Let's change the topic. Your girlfriend? What's her name? "
