It's about five o'clock in the afternoon.
Apart from two campfires, there were no other sources of light.
As for the temperature, it even dropped to minus 40 degrees. If they had not stayed on the leeward slope, the three of them would have been frozen into ice sculptures.
At this moment, Lu Li was sitting by the fire to keep warm. In order to make the snow water less dull, he even added some roots of tundra birch into it.
As for the taste, let alone mention it, it just has a bitter taste.
In addition, due to the deep clouds, there will be no stars or moon tonight, let alone the Northern Lights.
Therefore, after the initial novelty, Lu Li began to feel bored, and as time went by, this boredom became more intense.
It's a pity that I didn't bring any cigarettes.
As soon as he thought about this, Lu Li began to think about random things, not letting his brain be idle.
From the foggy London of 1888 to the Arnhem Bridge in 1944, to New York where the resurrected corpses are rampant, and finally to the plausible origin of Blue Star, a town called Hobbs.
What is that power that suddenly bursts out of the body in the black-roofed church?
At first, Lu Li thought this was an ability unique to the werewolf bloodline, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed like the power brought by controlling negative emotions.
If you have the opportunity, ask Bai Xiao for advice. As a junior assistant coach, he should know the truth. If he can completely control this power
Ouch——
Suddenly, there were howls in the darkness.
Sad and long.
For a moment, Lu Li stopped thinking about it, lifted off the blanket, and rushed to the campsite, because he was extremely sure of what kind of creature these sounds came from.
It's a wolf!
An unknown number of wolves!
at the same time.
Pan Ming, who was not deep in sleep, was startled, and the pores on his body exploded. He picked up his weapon and quickly crawled out of the camp.
During this period, he did not forget to kick Duke, who was snoring, to wake him up, and shouted:
"Stop sleeping, wolf attack!"
Almost out of instinct, Duke, who was the most out of place along the way, opened his eyes, tightened his grip on the handle of the gun, and quickly looked around: "Where? Where?"
Soon, he woke up, lifted up the tarpaulin, rushed out of the camp, and met Lu Li.
A normal wolf pack has at least seven members, but when the weather is cold and there is a lack of food, the number can reach up to forty.
If the ability is not sealed, then dealing with them is as simple as chopping melons and vegetables, and the quantity can be completely ignored.
"how many?"
Pan Ming rushed over, holding the handle of the gun in one hand and the dagger in his belt buckle for easy access.
"Seven."
Not far away, a pair of green wolf eyes were flashing in the darkness. They suppressed howls and seemed to be observing the prey while also fearing the blazing flames.
"Wolf?"
Duke rushed over and pulled out a thin stick from the fire as a self-defense tool.
Under firelight.
The wolves showed their ferocious appearance, with interlocking canine teeth, similar to that of hyenas, except that they were several times larger, more than two meters long, and their shoulder muscles were extremely obvious.
North American dire wolf!
One of the ferocious beasts that roamed prehistory.
"This is Lu Li." Duke instantly looked at Lu Li. Thinking of his bloodline, he couldn't help but suggest, "How about you go up and negotiate with them so that we can all coexist peacefully?"
"Stop being poor."
"Do you think these beasts can recognize me as a relative?"
After speaking, Lu Li looked at the wandering wolves and warned: "Be prepared for close combat, and don't stay too far away from the fire."
"shot!"
Strike first to gain the upper hand.
Sniper rifles need to be set up in advance, while pistols can be fired at any time.
Bang bang bang!
Muzzle flames spurted out.
Although the .22 bullet looks short and has no deterrent effect, it is still a bullet, and it is designed to harvest lives.
The continuous rapid fire made the wolves become restless, because some of their family members were injured. Two of the dire wolves were shot in the eyes and were lying in the snow, waiting for death.
Ouch——
Seeing this, the alpha wolf raised its head and howled, and the other dire wolves immediately charged.
Facing modern firearms and creatures they have never seen before, this group of prehistoric predators are not timid.
One hundred thousand years ago, their ancestors crossed the Bering Land Bridge and migrated thousands of miles here. Since then, they have firmly stood at the top of the North American food chain. With a spirit of adventure deep in their blood, they will naturally not be scared by gunfire.
At this moment, their short and thick limbs were waving at high frequency. Compared to cheetahs, their speed was a bit slow, but even so, the distance of three to four hundred meters was covered in an instant.
The pistol was useless.
Lu Li didn't care about anything else and pulled out his dagger to face him. A dire wolf pounced from the front. Its fangs, which were more than ten centimeters long, were enough to tear apart any target.
Neck!
A strong wind came, accompanied by a fishy smell.
At the first moment, Lu Li sensed the beast's intention and instinctively ducked to avoid it. At the same time, he raised the dagger and stabbed it upwards.
The sharp blade instantly penetrated the jawbone and pierced the dire wolf's head, causing wolf blood to spurt out.
The next moment, the alpha wolf outflanked from the side and rear pounced. It was larger in size and more experienced.
Draw the knife and twist the body.
The next moment, something unexpected happened.
The melee dagger is stuck in the dire wolf's skull and cannot be removed in a short time.
Without hesitation, Lu Li instantly let go and rolled desperately on the snow.
Colleagues wish they could die together!
In the same way, the Dire Wolf leader did not regard Lu Li as a relative at all.
He sprinted forward, held him down with sharp wolf claws, opened his huge mouth, leaned over and gave him a wolf kiss.
The tiger fell down and was bullied by the dog
The thought flashed across his mind, and just when Lu Li was determined to pull the dire wolf into the bonfire together, the divine soldiers descended from the sky.
A burning sensation came from in front of him, and Duke suddenly jumped out, swinging a burning thin stick and smashing it into the dire wolf's face.
There are fragile parts such as the nose and eyes, so the effect is outstanding.
The wolf whimpered, rolled over in the snow for a while, then turned and ran away.
On the side, Pan Ming, who, like Lu Li, was being besieged by two dire wolves, his situation improved instantly.
With two shrill howls, they began to run wildly in the direction where the alpha wolf fled, no longer entangled with the prey that was about to reach their mouths.
unlucky!
Encountered such a dangerous situation on the first night!
The three of them looked at the dire wolf carcass on the ground and the smell of blood, with mixed emotions——
It's a complete disaster.
"Get some rest and drive all night. We can't stay in this place." Pan Ming was no longer as calm as before. He slumped on the ground to recover his strength. "Those three beasts will launch a surprise attack at any time."
"That's right."
The cold-proof clothes were not stab-proof clothes. Lu Li, who was unfortunately injured, covered his shoulders and looked ugly——
Blood seeped out from between his fingers.
"You guys continue to rest and take care of your wounds, and I'll go pack your things."
Among the three people present, Duke was in the best physical condition. After all, he only had to deal with one dire wolf.
