Chapter 303

~6 min read 1,118 words

Xiao Yi had faced four wolves before—in the incident where Heidan nearly got hunted, he had dealt with just as many.

To be fair, if four wolves coordinated their encirclement and attack, they’d be hard to handle.

That time, Xiao Yi had also been scratched by wolves—one of the rare moments he’d been injured since arriving in this wilderness.

Of course, it was precisely that injury that made Xiao Yi spend a free attribute point to exchange for a rabies vaccine-like potion.

But now, with the potion’s boost, Xiao Yi wasn’t afraid of being scratched or bitten—so long as he wasn’t bitten hard enough to shatter bones.

Still, Xiao Yi had no intention of facing these four wolves alone; he shouted toward Heidan, “Heidan, come here!”

Hearing Xiao Yi’s call, Heidan sprinted toward him at once.

The two gray wolves that had been harassing Heidan wanted to stop him, but with Heidan determined to reach Xiao Yi, they could only watch helplessly as he ran over.

After all, their harassment relied only on agility and speed; if they truly clashed head-on, neither wolf was enough to survive Heidan’s paw strikes.

“Roar!”

Then, with a mighty bear roar, Heidan quickly joined Xiao Yi.

The Wolf King could only watch helplessly, for he sensed that Xiao Yi had now focused all his attention entirely on him.

If he’d dared lead the pack to intercept Heidan just now, Xiao Yi’s bloodstained weapon would have struck him with thunderous force.

But now that Heidan had arrived, the two wolves previously distracting him also rushed over.

The situation had now become one man and one bear facing six wolves.

Though the wolves were numerous, Xiao Yi no longer feared them.

He’d called Heidan over earlier only because he feared a wolf might ambush him from behind during battle—that was his only concern.

Now, Xiao Yi could safely leave his back to Heidan—and that, too, was his trust in Heidan.

With that, Xiao Yi could now unleash his full strength to hunt down the wolf pack.

“Heidan, we haven’t fought side by side in a long time. Today might be our last chance. Let’s go—you stay behind me.”

Patting Heidan’s bear head, Xiao Yi smiled and said it, then gripped his spear and charged straight toward the Wolf King.

“Howl!”

Seeing this, the Wolf King didn’t back down—he charged straight at Xiao Yi.

The Wolf King understood the situation clearly: all three bears centered their attention on this human.

If he could eliminate this human quickly, he had a strong chance of leading his pack to escape.

In an instant, Xiao Yi met the Wolf King head-on—he raised his spear and thrust straight at the wolf.

But the old Wolf King reacted just as fast; as soon as he saw Xiao Yi’s thrust, he knew all the force was directed forward.

The Wolf King leapt sharply—not only dodging the wooden spear perfectly, but also lunging straight for Xiao Yi’s face with his jaws.

“Roar! Roar!”

Seeing this, Heidan and Heidan both grew anxious—they knew if the Wolf King landed that bite, Xiao Yi would either die or be crippled, and they couldn’t help roaring in alarm.

But Xiao Yi, at that moment, calmly smiled faintly, then swiftly lifted his spear upward, turning it into a staff.

Just as the Wolf King was about to pounce on him, the wooden staff shot upward from beneath the wolf’s belly.

The Wolf King instantly lost balance in midair; Xiao Yi pushed harder, and the wolf flew clean over Xiao Yi’s head, hurtling far away.

“Howl!”

The Wolf King soared high, then crashed headfirst into the snow, followed by a pained howl.

Though the snow on the ground was deep, falling from such height without preparation still left the Wolf King dazed and disoriented.

Seeing this, all the surrounding wolves froze in place.

Just moments ago, the wolves had thought this was the perfect chance for the Wolf King to kill the human—yet it had turned out this way.

This human is terrifyingly insane!

“Roar! Roar!”

Though the pack was unwilling, the three bears all roared excitedly at the sight and redoubled their efforts to hunt the wolves harassing them.

Yet in Xiao Yi’s heart, he silently praised the Wolf King.

If this had been Xiao Yi’s first days in the wilderness, that strike from the Wolf King would have been truly dangerous.

Even with the system’s enhanced strength and reflexes, he might have avoided death—but he’d still have been bitten and injured in the panic.

But now, Xiao Yi had fought battles against brown bears, black bears, wolves, lynxes, and other large predators.

His combat experience and his composure in the face of danger had undergone a complete transformation.

Of course, this wolf’s timing was exceptional, and his battle experience truly rich.

Xiao Yi knew the Wolf King had been waiting for the precise moment he thrust with the wooden spear.

But the Wolf King hadn’t anticipated Xiao Yi’s reflexes would be this sharp—able to adjust instantly even while committing full force forward.

Of course, though the Wolf King had been launched into the air, the other wolves’ attacks had arrived.

The two wolves Jiuchan ing Heidan behind Xiao Yi ignored his threat entirely and lunged straight at Xiao Yi.

Seeing this, Heidan was momentarily stunned—he hadn’t expected the wolves to be so decisive.

Meanwhile, the she-wolf, along with two others, charged at Xiao Yi without regard for danger.

Clearly, after their leader was thrown, the wolf pack had gone mad—they were now determined to kill Xiao Yi at all costs.

If the other four wolves hadn’t been farther away, they too might have charged recklessly.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi frowned slightly.

Five wolves attacking from different angles—even now, Xiao Yi sensed danger.

But Xiao Yi had no time to hesitate—he shouted, “Heidan!”

Then he launched a full-force assault against the three wolves ahead, trusting entirely that Heidan could handle the two behind him.

At Xiao Yi’s shout, Heidan snapped to attention and charged after the two wolves.

In a flash, Xiao Yi collided with the five wolves.

The she-wolf lunged for his throat; the two wolves ahead targeted his right arm gripping the spear and his left leg.

The two wolves behind—one bit toward his spine, the other at his right leg.

Even Xiao Yi felt his hair stand on end—this was the most dangerous moment he’d faced since arriving in the wilderness.

One misstep now wouldn’t just mean broken limbs—it could mean death right here.

And to be fair, these five wolves coordinated perfectly—they arrived at Xiao Yi’s sides nearly simultaneously.

Now, everyone watching the livestream, as well as Heidan and Heidan, watched in dread.
