Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!-Chapter 84: Searching for the Wolf Pack

Squeak squeak—

The bicycle made squeaking sounds, as if it would fall apart at any moment.

"Leng Yebai, can we switch to another mode of transportation next time? An electric scooter would do!"

Bai Xiqin tugged at Leng Yebai’s hem with her lush fingers, complaining.

"The bike’s great, I really like it."

Leng Yebai glanced at Bai Xiqin’s fair fingers, his lips curling into a smile.

"Don’t you think it’s too slow?" Bai Xiqin said.

Their destination required them to cross the entire city, and cycling would take at least three hours.

"Not slow, I think it’s just fine." Leng Yebai said, while glancing again at Bai Xiqin’s slender fingers.

He loved the feeling of biking with Bai Xiqin, as if they were the only two people left in the world.

The most valuable asset by his side, the dearest person close to him.

"Stop and let’s use the electric scooter!"

While cycling was cozy, three hours of bumpiness was terrifying.

She still wanted to hurry back to eat dinner!

Leng Yebai had to stop the bike but didn’t get off, looking as if he wanted to keep biking.

Bai Xiqin glanced around, noticed there were no people, and pulled out an electric scooter from the space.

Leng Yebai sat astride the bicycle, unwilling to get off, preventing Bai Xiqin from storing it in the space again.

His wet eyes looked at Bai Xiqin, like a child wanting his toy back.

Leng Yebai strayed further into the realm of bossiness, unable to return.

"Get off, ride the electric scooter!" Bai Xiqin rubbed her forehead.

"Won’t ride, don’t know how."

Leng Yebai stubbornly turned his head, looking elsewhere, unyielding.

Yet his slender fingers scratched the bicycle handles repeatedly.

Clearly feeling guilty.

"I’ll give you one more chance, ride the electric scooter or not?"

Bai Xiqin raised her hand with a smile.

Leng Yebai shrank his neck, his slender fingers covering his face, "Won’t ride."

"I—"

Bai Xiqin reached for Leng Yebai’s back; Leng Yebai instinctively shivered yet persisted in his opinion.

A bicycle is a bicycle, he would choose it even till death!

"How about I ride the scooter and take you, deal?" Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow.

"No—" Leng Yebai hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Bai Xiqin holding a dagger, quickly amended, "...fine."

"Get off!"

Bai Xiqin widened her eyes.

Leng Yebai obediently propped the bicycle and quietly stood behind Bai Xiqin.

Bai Xiqin waved her hand, storing the bicycle into space.

Only then did Bai Xiqin put away the dagger, mounted the electric scooter, indicating Leng Yebai to come up.

"Where’s the helmet?" Leng Yebai pressed his thin lips.

The helmet was his last stubbornness.

"None, hurry up." Bai Xiqin glanced at Leng Yebai, "Three, two..."

Before reaching one, Leng Yebai had already seated himself on the scooter, his slender fingers held onto Bai Xiqin’s waist.

"Let’s go!"

Leng Yebai’s lips curved slightly upward.

He suddenly realized that the scooter had its benefits too.

If Xiao Niu didn’t hug him, he could hug Xiao Niu!

Bai Xiqin’s face flushed slightly, glanced at those long fingers, suddenly felt like she was digging her own pit.

Tsk, can only look, not touch, must focus on driving.

Tsk, only blame herself for being too innocent, not seizing the upper hand first!

On the surface Bai Xiqin was riding a scooter, yet adopted the posture of piloting a plane, twisting the handle as far as it could go.

Leng Yebai, watching the scenery quickly retreating beside him, silently tightened his grip.

Can only say, no wonder they are siblings, driving fiercely.

In less than an hour, the two crossed the entire D City, arriving at the wolf-infested outskirts.

Initially, there were no wolves in the suburbs; the pack might have migrated from somewhere unknown.

After the energy surge, both humans and animals underwent a baptism, animals grew increasingly intelligent, crossing streets and rivers searching for suitable habitats.

Another possibility, the wolves might have escaped from D City Zoo.

Animals have territorial awareness, each territory can only have one leader.

Apart from submission, they can only move elsewhere to be the leader.

The zoo is now occupied by Mutated Panda, the animals either submit or leave.

Being pack animals, wolves in large numbers aren’t likely to yield.

Bai Xiqin stored the scooter and released Qin Yuan from the space.

"Master, master, need my help?"

Qin Yuan eagerly approached Bai Xiqin.

"Can you help by checking where the wolf pack gathers around here?" Bai Xiqin reached out to pet Qin Yuan’s head.

Qin Yuan’s appearance resembles a bee, his size comparable to a mandarin duck.

Seemingly fine-looking—not as gentle as Taowu.

"Sure thing, master! I’m on it!"

Qin Yuan cheerfully flew away, brimming with joy, nearly hummed a tune.

He had a bold idea.

He thought he was the most favored!

Because he was summoned most often from the space by his master!

Bai Xiqin found a big stone and sat on it without a care, waiting for Qin Yuan’s report.

Leng Yebai stood beside Bai Xiqin, conveniently blocking the sun.

Five minutes later, Qin Yuan flew back.

"Master, spotted the wolf pack’s trails, there are a total of twenty wolves, they look pretty daft."

Qin Yuan landed on Bai Xiqin’s shoulder, gazed at her eagerly.

Waiting for praise.

"Great job!"

Bai Xiqin gratifyingly praised Qin Yuan, then advanced towards the wolves with Leng Yebai.

On the way, they didn’t encounter other animals, occasionally hearing insect chirps, then silence.

Approaching March, the way was lush, wild grass rampant, forest abundant.

The arrival of the energy surge was a baptism to the earth, a rare gift to the plants.

Suburbs of the city almost turned into a forest overnight, ordinary narrow paths covered by wild grass.

Frequently fast-growing plants blocked the way, Qin Yuan landed on them, lightly stinging the verdant vines.

The obstructive lush vine withered visibly, eventually becoming a heap of yellow withered branches.

Qin Yuan carries deadly poison, able to kill any plant or animal.

Soon, the wolf pack came into view.

The wolves lazily lay on the grass, the night is their domain, the daylight sun perfect for sleep.

"Master, they’re right here!"

Qin Yuan excitedly flew above the wolf pack, lively and bouncing.

Nearly danced atop the Mutated Wolf King.

Chittering instantly awoke the Wolf King considerably.

"Awoo—"

The completely white Wolf King showed its fangs, howling to the sky.

"Awoo—"

The whole pack stood up, staring menacingly in the direction of Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

Bai Xiqin:...

Without giving Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai a chance to negotiate, twenty Mutated Wolves charged at them.

Mutated Wolves were much larger than ordinary wolves, agile, with long fangs and sharp claws emitting faint menace.

An ice-coated Steel Needle instantly flew over, piercing towards the temple of the Mutated Wolf King.

Capture the king to capture the thieves.

Ding—

The chilling Steel Needle didn’t penetrate the Wolf King’s temple.

The Mutated Wolf King exuded a faint yellow glow. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

This was a Wolf King with Gold Ability, far harder than regular zombie skulls.
