Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! novel Chapter 123

What Nanzhi had predicted became half true.

Apart from the wolves in the Plant Conservatory, there are also wolves in the commercial district near the military base.

But this group of wolves looks different from the ones they encountered before.

Their furs are darker brown in color, mostly brown without white spots or markings, having a smaller build, shorter claws, and limbs.

Their speed is slower too.

The only similarities between the two groups were the eyes.

They were also red, almost dripping with blood.

However, there were wounds on their bodies and faces like claw marks and bites, mostly old but some are fresh.

Yu Baoyin noted these observations in her mind.

But her gaze didn’t linger on them too long.

She pulled the trigger of her rifle, helping the soldiers fend off the wolves.

If their claws ripped out the tires, it would be a big problem.

Feng Ran, with his aching right leg, opened the window on the opposite side, didn’t let Yu Baoyin do all the work.

The male survivors, like Uncle Zhang and Supervisor Cang, didn’t know how to fire a gun.

They can only help them load.

If Nanzhi were here, she would probably see the prompts floating on the wolves.

[Tier 0 Early Stage Wolf]

[Tier 0 Middle Stage Wolf]

[Tier 0 Late Stage Wolf]

Despite slower than the Tier 1 Middle Stage wolves, they were still a threat to the survivors.

Captain Wang didn’t lower his guard and bombarded the wolves with bullets and grenades.

In the last vehicle, one of the soldiers exclaimed, "Captain Wang! The phone is finally connected!"

Having heard this, Wang Chul squeezed his body back into the back seat and grabbed the satellite phone.

In one of the checkpoints inside the military base, Colonel Tang was just about to board a jeep when his personal satellite phone rang.

He answered it.

When Wang Chul’s voice came through, a wave of relief eased the deep creases forming on the Colonel’s forehead.

Having heard of their current situation, he quickly assembled a team.

Cars drove out of the military base and headed to the commercial district.

…

Each of the ice arrows had a width of a baby’s fist and a half-meter length.

No doubt if the ice arrows hit them, it would leave bloody holes.

Nanzhi grabbed the shocked Xuan Yi before dodging.

Lin Weihao also evaded the attack.

The ice arrows strike some pillars of the cacti greenhouse, producing dull thudding noises as they broke.

The beams connected to the pillar dropped like icicles.

Startled, Nanzhi and Lin Weihao leaped out of harm’s way.

The moment their feet landed on the snow, the remaining Tier 1 middle stage wolves of the pack surrounded them from all sides.

Though his face was less impassive, Xuan Yi’s mind was in a mess upon witnessing a magical scene.

Staring ahead, Nanzhi and Lin Weihao finally saw the culprit.

A two meter and a half wolf, its fur dark like ink, and eyes of red rubies stared at them.

[Tier 1 Late stage Wolf King]

The pressure caused by the leaking mental energy from the Wolf King magnified its negative effects on him.

Like invisible hands, they cemented him in place, immobilizing him.

His eyes widened in fear, his teeth chattered, and his form visibly shook.

The Wolf King stared condescending at them as if it was looking at a group of ants who was about to die under its paws.

It growled, letting out a command to kill.

Xuan Yi’s body erupted with goose bumps as that howl invaded his ears.

The ten wolves encircling them started their attacks.

Their claws and jaws of death were everywhere like grim reaper’s scythes.

Xuan Yi was strapped on Lin Weihao’s shoulder again, stomach caving in from the rough movement.

His vision spun.

Nanzhi and Lin Weihao crouched, narrowly avoiding the wolves’ attacks.

As they were doing these, their eyes swept on the wolves, detecting the weakness of the formation before rushing in a particular direction.

One could see two silver arcs flash in a split second before two wolves’ heads fell, painting the snow bloody red.

[You’ve earned 75 EXP.]

Nanzhi and Lin Weihao jumped over the fallen bodies and escaped the encirclement.

The images of the lifeless wolves entered the Wolf King’s eyes, and its eyes became filled with rage.

It slammed its hind paws on the ground before a loud roar escaped its mouth.

Nanzhi looked back, wanting to store the bodies of the dead wolves in her inventory, but numerous ice spikes emerged from the ground beneath their feet.

It was followed by a rain of ice arrows from above.

Their sharp tips grazed on their clothes, creating tears and leaving small wounds and scratches on their skin.
