Starting Cultivation in Wasteland-Chapter 76 - 73: Sniping Conditions - 74: Two Wolf Kings (Double Release, Please Subscribe)
Qu Jianleiβs strike directly sliced through the blue shadowβs scapula, halting its forward momentum.
This Frost Wolf was slightly smaller than the Wolf King from earlier, but still the size of a lion. πππππ¬πππ·ππΏππ‘.ππΈπ
Its body was unusually resilient, and even Qu Jianleiβs stunning blade failed to cut it in two.
Surprisingly, though it was forced back and its shoulder was heavily wounded, the Frost Wolf twisted its waist, bizarrely pivoted in midair, and lunged at Qu Jianlei again.
It was apparent the injury was severe, yet it summoned its remaining strength, its momentum undiminished.
The surrounding people were so overwhelmed by this aura that they couldnβt even lift their guns.
Perhaps it was also due to the speed being too rapid for a reaction.
However, Qu Jianleiβs movements were swift enough; after the slash, he seamlessly transitioned into a move called "Phoenix Returning to the Nest."
This maneuver utilized the force of his turning waist, fiercer than the previous slash.
If he had chosen a downward stroke, he might have severed the Frost Wolfβs throat, but he would have also been injured.
Yet this all-or-nothing strike landed squarely on the Frost Wolfβs neck, sending its massive head flying, blood splattering.
Qu Jianlei scarcely expected this strike to hit precisely at the joint of the Frost Wolfβs neck, achieving success in one blow.
He excelled at calculations, predicting that this strike couldnβt rely on finesse but required brute force.
The result astonished even him.
In the next moment, he kicked the fallen wolf head aside and returned to the position behind the vehicle-mounted machine gun.
The more critical the moment, the calmer he was, never panicking.
That kick was remarkable too; the wolfβs head, weighing at least seventy to eighty jin, was sent flying over twenty meters by his kick.
The vehicle-mounted machine gun roared again as Flower Scorpion finally flipped herself up from the truck bed and reloaded the ammunition.
Her tactical movements were highly standard and her combat skills superior, taking less than three seconds to rise from her prone position.
Yet in those three seconds, another Wolf King had been slain.
Not only that, when she slotted the next magazine into the loader, she looked up habitually, utterly astonished.
"The wolf pack... retreated?"
Qu Jianlei, also puzzled, but first emptied a burst before glancing around, "Did they really retreat?"
Like the receding tide, the attacking Frost Wolves howled in dismay, tucking their tails and fleeing.
In the blink of an eye, the horde of Frost Wolves vanished.
But for the numerous Frost Wolf corpses on the ground and the scent of blood in the air, it was as if the place had never been besieged by wolves.
"We won!" a slightly chubby man leaped up first, a supervisor of a small caravan.
Immediately, everyone cheered, with some so exhilarated they jumped and shouted, embracing each other.
Having narrowly escaped death, nearly everyone was overjoyed and ecstatic at this moment.
"Did we really... win?" Flower Scorpion doubted, thinking her full strength hadnβt yet been unleashed.
But the reactions of the other adventurers werenβt fake; they had indeed won.
Qu Jianlei was a bit dazed too, not fully understanding the Frost Wolvesβ behavior.
However, exhausted both physically and mentally, he directly lay back in the truck bed, leaning back pretending to nap.
He wished to fall asleep deeply the very next moment; those final two strikes had drained not just his strength but also his spirit.
The spirit is a peculiar thing; you might feel itβs depleted, but like a womanβs secret, thereβs always a little more if you push.
Yet the discomfort from overexertion is only truly known to those who experience it.
Flower Scorpion immediately guessed that Black Heaven, having slain two Wolf Kings, must have paid a significant price.
Especially with the latter one, he was in a surprise attack state.
To gain rewards, sacrifices must be made; this is an undeniable truth.
Seeing Black Heaven slump down in the truck bed, she instinctively picked up the Laser Gun, scanning the surroundings and shouted, "Is everything okay now?"
