Wilderness Survival with Druid System

Chapter 276: Chapter 99: Get Out of the Way!

Crack!

With the sound, Chen Wen jumped down from the tree, causing the scattered firewood below to break with a snap.

Chen Wen didn’t pay attention to the firewood; instead, he used the snow with a backhand to cover the campfire.

The flames flickered, and with the melting of the snow, it cut off oxygen while lowering the temperature.

Soon, the campfire went out.

Darkness fell around in an instant.

The darkness brought fear.

For Hua Yun, it was just like that.

She gripped her bow and flashlight tightly, her eyes wide open, staring at the surrounding darkness.

But contrary to Hua Yun, Chen Wen was very calm.

He watched as the last flame went out, even the orange-red patterns on the dry branches gradually dimming.

Finally, after everything fell into darkness, Chen Wen slowly raised his head.

In front of him, the wolf pack finally emerged from the cover.

The darkness was their domain.

But for Chen Wen, the darkness was his hunting ground!

[Night Shadow] activated the moment the campfire went out.

He moved behind the tree, avoiding the wolves’ line of sight.

Through [Silence], Chen Wen successfully vanished from the wolves’ perception.

The lead wolf, enduring the pain in its shoulder, stared intently under the tree.

It was a bit confused.

Where did that two-legged beast go?

It seemed that in an instant, the two-legged beast vanished without a trace.

The lead wolf was a bit nervous; it was its second encounter with a two-legged beast, but far more dangerous than the first!

Hesitant, the surrounding wolves began to grow restless.

They couldn’t perceive much; they just wanted to tear apart the creatures on the tree.

It was time to make a decision!

Continue the hunt!

The lead wolf let out a low, suppressed growl, and the wolf pack, restless, surrounded the Yunshan tree where Hua Yun was.

Wolves aren’t good at climbing trees, let alone when there’s a sniper up there.

At that moment, Hua Yun whispered, ”Chen Wen, should I turn on the flashlight? I’m ready now. Chen Wen, Chen Wen?”

There was no response.

Hua Yun was momentarily stunned, but quickly realized.

Chen Wen might have other plans.

She was a bit anxious.

Why didn’t he mention the plan?

But just when Hua Yun was anxious,

”Owoo~~~~~”

A mournful whimper sounded from behind the wolf pack.

That strong black wolf struggled violently, twisting to bite back, trying to kill whatever attacked it.

But what greeted it was a second attack!

Crack!

Chen Wen clearly felt the axe shatter bones.

For what was deemed as iron bones, it was no match for one of the industrial jewels—a steel alloy axe!

Chen Wen’s attack succeeded before the wolf pack could react.

He charged fiercely towards the Yunshan tree where Hua Yun was.

Amid the wolf pack’s commotion, a wolf spotted Chen Wen.

It instinctively lunged to bite.

[Swift] Acceleration!

[Iron Bear Triad] Accelerate again!

[Running Chicken] Accelerate again!

Chen Wen’s speed approached human limits, even surpassing them!

The wolf was left biting the air, slightly bewildered.

What just passed by?

But quickly, Chen Wen let out a muffled grunt, crouching to jump.

His entire body lunged at the Yunshan tree, even causing it to tremble momentarily.

When the wolves leaped to bite Chen Wen.

[Iron Bear Triad] exerted force again.

Chen Wen climbed like a monkey, swiftly, escaping the wolves’ attack range.

What a fantastic move!

This entry is really damn useful!

Chen Wen grimaced, his heartbeat fast!

He could even feel the wolf’s pungent breath from its mouth hitting his butt.

If not for [Iron Bear Triad]’s burst speed, he wouldn’t have leaped upward in time.

The butt might have been bitten.

Climbing the tree with lingering fear, Hua Yun quickly asked, ”Where did you go just now?”

Chen Wen chuckled, ”I snuck up on them, probably took down the wolf king, the black one, though I almost got ambushed myself.”

Hearing this, Hua Yun was at a loss for words.

Ambushed the tail?

What a little genius you are.

She didn’t ask Chen Wen how he did it, which made Chen Wen a bit uncomfortable.

Damn it, why isn’t Hua Yun curious?

I just waded through a sea of wolves and took the wolf king’s head like it was nothing.

Just thinking about the ambush scene made Chen Wen’s blood surge.

After sneaking out of the wolves’ sight, he moved like a phantom, circling to the back of the wolf pack.

At that time, the wolves were advancing, completely unaware of Chen Wen’s big move from behind.

When they thought they had surrounded Hua Yun and Chen Wen, Chen Wen’s steps were light, like a nimble gazelle, making three consecutive hops in the snow.

[Night Shadow], [Silence], [Running Chicken]...

All acceleration entries were in full force, allowing Chen Wen to unleash a speed far beyond human limits.

Thus landing a fatal blow, no, two blows.

As Chen Wen took the flashlight and illuminated under the tree.

The black wolf seemed to have its backbone removed, lying limply on the ground, its chest heaving violently.

Taking in more breaths than it let out, obviously, it was dead beyond dead.

The state of the black wolf left the surrounding wolves somewhat surprised.

Some wolves nudged closer, using their noses to push the black wolf.

But the black wolf remained motionless.

Soon, the wolves understood; their companion had died in the ambush by that two-legged beast.

The pack let out angry howls, becoming even more aggressive.

”Hiss! Something’s wrong!”

Chen Wen, watching the increasingly restless wolves, suddenly changed his expression.

The wolves’ behavior now was not like that of losing a leader.

Rather, it was like they were thoroughly enraged.

”The lead wolf shouldn’t have been that black wolf!”

Both Hua Yun and Chen Wen reacted simultaneously.

They exchanged a glance, both somewhat shocked.

Normally, the strongest wolf is the lead wolf.

This is common knowledge.

But these North American gray wolves were different.

Chen Wen immediately observed the other wolf packs.

But whenever the gray wolves were illuminated by the flashlight, they kept retreating, hiding behind trees.

Hua Yun didn’t even get a chance to shoot arrows.

”Seems we’re stuck in a stalemate again.”

Chen Wen scratched his head, a bit helpless, ”If it doesn’t work, we’ll just ignore them, deal with this when it gets light.”

As he spoke, Chen Wen reached out, trying to grab the tree branch to rest a bit.

But with a creak.

The lynx screeched in alarm.

Hua Yun glanced at the branch they were sitting on and said, ”If you can maintain this posture till dawn, it should be fine. But if you can’t hold on and need a place to rest your feet, it might not be good.”

Now, Hua Yun and a few animals were sitting on the branch, their weight still within the branch’s bearing capacity.

Chen Wen had just grabbed the branch, producing a creaking sound.

If he actually got up, it would definitely snap the branch.

He withdrew his hand, somewhat speechless, ”The load-bearing capacity is still a bit lacking. If both of us lie down, the branch might break; I’ll move to another branch.”

Before Chen Wen could act, Hua Yun said softly, ”Though we can rest, honestly, we can’t really rest now. Listen to their calls; they’ve started howling in rhythm one after another, trying to exhaust us.”

”And most importantly, look over here.”

Hua Yun gestured for Chen Wen to point the flashlight at the sled. A sneaky gray wolf immediately turned and fled.

Chen Wen hissed.

”Damn, our food has been discovered! That bastard is trying to steal the food!”

Hua Yun sighed, ”Stealing food is a small matter. The problem is without supplies, if they trap us on the tree for days, our combat strength will decrease, while theirs remains unchanged, maybe even increasing as they steal our food!”

”We’d ultimately be forced to the ground, facing an even stronger wolf pack!”

Chen Wen grimaced at her words.

”Damn it, seems we still have to go with my previous method, blow it up with them!”
