Although they told each other to rest well, Su Chen and Yousi still did not rest. Leaning on the rope, the two made a few lassos and took a few pieces of jerky. They planned to hunt a few wolves while the wolf pack was active at night.
Carrying their tools, they moved forward carefully. The two gradually approached the wolf pack and set up a trap. Just like that, they held their weapons tightly and hid.
The sky became darker and darker and the mountain forest gradually became quiet. Only the sound of insects could be heard.
In the night, the wild wolves began to grow active. Perhaps it was because it was very convenient to hunt in this area. There were already a few wild deer corpses. The wolf pack did not begin to hunt collectively. Instead, they scattered and moved freely in all directions.
They formed into groups of three to five and fought with each other as they spread out. Beside the trap that Su Chen and Yousi had set up, a few wild wolves were gradually approaching.
Very quickly, five wild wolves were nearing the trap that the two had set up. The wild wolves also quickly discovered the jerky that was thrown on the ground.
AWOOO! This immediately attracted the interest of the five wild wolves. Following that, the wolves curiously looked up.
At the side, one of the wolves had fallen into a trap. “Look carefully, it’s a trap.” At this moment, Su Chen also said in a low voice, “Yousi, let’s go over. When these wild wolves fall into the trap, we’ll take care of them one by one.”
“Alright.” Yousi also nodded. He took his weapon and walked forward bit by bit. Su Chen walked forward as well, holding the sword in his hand.
From such a close distance, Su Chen could see the appearances of these wild wolves. They looked different from the ones he had encountered before. They seemed to be ordinary wolves. Looking at these ordinary wild wolves, Su Chen felt somewhat at ease. These wild wolves were something that Su Chen and Yousi could deal with.
Whoosh… At this moment, the two wild wolves picked up the jerky in the trap. Su Chen and Yousi, who were guarding the trap, instantly pulled on the ropes, lifting the bodies of the two wild wolves.
Moreover, the two wild wolves had their heads lowered. Hence, the ropes wrapped around the necks of the two wild wolves, indirectly preventing them from making a sound.
At this moment, Su Chen swiftly rushed out like a sharp arrow. The sword in Su Chen’s hand instantly pierced through the body of a wild wolf, nailing it to the ground. After which, he kicked the head of the wolf, knocking it unconscious.
At the same time, Yousi rushed out as well. He swung the iron sword in his hand and hacked at the necks of the two wild wolves.
With a muffled sound, these few wild wolves were all dealt with. The matter went smoothly, smoother than Su Chen’s expectations.
After successfully dealing with these five wild wolves, the two of them did not stay any longer. In an instant, they dragged the corpses of the five wild wolves and left this place.
Dragging the bodies of the wolves, Su Chen was thinking in his heart, ‘If we do this a few more times, we can greatly reduce the number of wolves in the area. After that, we can deal with the other pack of wolves.’
After returning to the resting place, Su Chen said to Yousi, “Cut a few pieces of wolf meat. Such fresh and bloody meat will definitely attract a few more wolves.”
“That’s right.” Both of them were very happy with their first successful trap. They used their knives to cut off a few pieces of wolf meat and brought along a rope. Then, they continued to place the traps. Through this method, they gained two more waves of rewards and successfully hunted another eight wild wolves before resting.
The next day, looking at the pile of wild wolf corpses, Yousi and Su Chen finished counting and continued their discussion.
“There are a total of sixty adult wolves there. We’ve already killed thirteen, which means that there are still forty-seven of them left. We can’t waste the day like this. I see that the deer corpses are almost done and I’m afraid the leader of the wolves will want to lead a team to hunt soon,” Su Chen analyzed.
“Since we’ve already killed thirteen of them, the leader of the wolves probably knows that there are enemies around and will probably leave a portion of the wolves to guard the younger ones in their pack. At that time, we’ll go over and kill those wolves first, then we can deal with the others.”
“Then, when should we trigger it?” Yousi asked. “Now.” Su Chen smiled and said, “Listen, there are already wolves howling. We’ll leave these corpses here first. I don’t think there are other ferocious beasts nearby because of the wolf pack, so there shouldn’t be any animals here.”
“Let’s set off, then,” Su Chen said.
They both walked toward the mountain top. However, they did not walk for long before the figure of a wild wolf appeared in their line of sight. Very quickly, there was the second one, and suddenly, thirty wild wolves had appeared on the mountain slope.
These wild wolves were looking at Su Chen and Yousi. Moreover, it was very obvious that there was a wolf that was significantly bigger than an ordinary wild wolf. The corner of its mouth revealed two sharp teeth.
“That’s…” Su Chen’s heart immediately tightened when he saw that wild wolf. “…the alpha wolf..”
