The Immortal God of War

Chapter 259 The Cruelty of Nature

After returning to the real world, Liu Chi immediately became alert.

"What's the matter?"

“We are being hunted.”

Xiaobai and Xiaojin transformed into human form at the same time, looking at the woods in the distance.

Liu Chi opened the technology system interface to check the progress of the instrument.

"Wait a little longer, it's not time yet."

After saying that, Liu Chi took out two pistols from his space ring and became alert.

So the four of them looked around vigilantly. Facing unknown threats, it was better not to get too arrogant.

"What do you think is hunting us?"

Liu Chi asked, he didn't yet have the magical beast instincts like Xiaobai and Xiaojin.

"Based on my experience, this is a pack of wolves, but why they are targeting us now is unclear."

"Is that right?"

Liu Chi questioned, and then the information about the wolf suddenly appeared in his mind.

After a brief understanding, Liu Chi didn't know what the wolves' purpose was, but if he encountered them, he would probably die in the snow.

Seeing that the sky was gradually getting darker, Liu Chi knew that the wolves were waiting for the night. Unfortunately, today was a full moon.

The instrument detection had been going on for two hours. In late November, it was dark at five o'clock. After Liu Chi put away the instrument, he lit a fire on the open space in the snow.

Even if a huge crisis is imminent, filling your stomach is the first step in the battle.

So Liu Chi started grilling meat as usual.

Just as the four of them started eating, the howling of wolves was heard all around them.

After Liu Chi bit off a piece of meat, the corners of his mouth curled up. He had waited for so long and finally got the result.

"Ready to fight!"

Liu Chi put his barbecue back on the grill and picked up another pistol on the ground.

"Boom!"

After a gunshot, the howling of the wolves stopped abruptly.

The gunshot was like a battle signal between the two sides. Liu Chi saw many green eyeballs suddenly appearing around him.

The wolves ran towards Liu Chi from all directions. Liu Chi used the Fire Magic Stone to continuously charge the magic bullets. After absorbing a whole Fire Magic Stone, Liu Chi aimed at the dense green dots and pulled the trigger.

With the light of the fire, Liu Chi also saw the faces of the wolves clearly, and the beast wolves in his mind instantly turned into monster wolves.

"This is actually a magical beast, the Snow Wolf? As an intelligent magical beast, why would it attack like this?"

Liu Chi immediately had doubts. Snow wolves are an extremely secretive magical beast, and are even hard to see. It is very strange to suddenly see so many of them.

After seeing the extremely fast fireball shot out by Liu Chi, the wolves suddenly stopped.

"Wait!"

Liu Chi said, stopping the three people who were about to attack. It is better to be careful when facing intelligent monsters.

"What's wrong? If you're worried, just give me the Dark Night Star Pupil."

Catherine said with a smile that she hadn't even seen the shadow of Dark Night Star Pupil since Liu Chi was resurrected, and she had been itching to try it.

"No, I just think it's strange. This is a snow wolf, did you know?"

"Snow Wolf? It's a monster, right?"

Catherine looked puzzled.

"I can tell at a glance that you definitely didn't pay attention in class."

Liu Chi complained,

"In short, this group of wolves is not normal. After observing them just now, it seems that there is not much oil under their fur. It may be that they have no food to survive the winter, so they have to come out to find food."

Just after Liu Chi finished his analysis, a wolf howl that sounded a little old was heard.

"They are about to attack. It seems they really have no other options."

Liu Chi smiled, quickly replaced the magic stone in his gun, and started charging again.

"You guys fight first. The wolves shouldn't be too strong. If you can't hold them off, I'll find a way."

"So, you just watch the show?"

Catherine looked at Liu Chi with disdain. It was bad enough that he didn't hand over the Dark Night Star Pupil, but now he was asked to watch the show from the side. It was a bit too much.

Liu Chi nodded and turned his head.

"Over there, coming soon."

"Humph!"

Then, a golden barrier rose up a few meters away from Catherine. The leading wolves, who had no time to brake, crashed into the barrier and lost consciousness instantly.

"and many more!"

Liu Chi said with a frown. Seeing the snow wolves on the ground, Liu Chi took a breath of cold air. From their worn teeth, he could tell that these were all old wolves.

"what happened again?"

Catherine turned her head.

“Nature is so cruel.”

"Huh? What does that mean?"

As Liu Chi was sighing, the wolves began the next wave of attack.

Liu Chi sat down against a tree. Due to the huge gap in strength, he could even just stand by and watch.

Seeing the wolves attacking him and others from afar, Liu Chi felt very sad. For some reason, they had no food to survive the winter, so they attacked without hesitation even when facing inevitable failure.

Between starving to death and dying in battle, the wolves naively chose the latter. They simply thought that Liu Chi and the others could be slowly worn out to death through a war of attrition, but they didn't expect that Liu Chi and the others were an insurmountable wall standing in front of them.

Finally, the dust settled. Looking at the bodies lying around, Catherine screamed in excitement.

"Liu Chi! Liu Chi! It seems everything has been resolved."

"Is that so? That's great!"

Liu Chi also smiled and climbed up from the tree he was leaning against.

"Let me recycle it!"

In order to ensure the freshness of the meat, Liu Chi immediately took out a knife and chiseled holes in the bodies of the snow wolves collected by the two big cats to let the meat bleed, so that the monster meat would not be too fishy.

Soon, the bleeding snow wolf corpse was collected by Liu Chi into the space ring.

After arriving at the next location and setting up the equipment, Liu Chi built a temporary processing table, ready to process the batch of snow wolf meat while the equipment was working.

Seeing Liu Chi's skillful movements, Catherine, who had long wanted to try it herself, could no longer hold back.

"Give me a knife, too."

"My third princess, such a dirty job is not suitable for you. If you really have nothing to do, go to the Spiritual Sea to study. Didn't I write you an opinion on lightning magic? Have you finished reading it?"

Catherine was instantly speechless after hearing Liu Chi's words.

"Slightly, the stinking willow pond!"

After making faces at Liu Chi, Catherine leaned on the little golden retriever's fluffy body and entered Liu Chi's spiritual sea.

As the snow wolf meat was processed, Liu Chi's heart gradually grew colder.

After dissecting several of them, they found nothing in their stomachs. Instead, the stomachs of the small wolf cubs were full of food.

Two hours passed in a flash in the busyness. Liu Chi dealt with a total of 27 snow wolves of different sizes and harvested the same number of monster crystal cores and furs.

It is worth mentioning that among this batch of snow wolves, the stomachs of twenty were empty, three had food residues in their stomachs, and the remaining four had their stomachs filled with stones.
