Chapter 40 (2/2)

This was due to running away too slowly during his previous encounter with the Blue Fire Wolf. In the end, he was slashed by the Blue Fire Wolf's claws.

And that was the same time he personally witnessed his buddy, who stuck with him all the way since childhood, dying in the mouth of the Blue Fire Wolf. That brutal scene appeared even in his dreams.

”Deputy Captain, let's do it!” All of the hunting squad members drew their wooden bows, each of their faces revealing a look of pure conviction.

”Good, that's the way! Everybody, follow my orders!” Zhang Yangping gazed at the vigour and determination that radiated out from each of the men's bodies. Traces of tears entered his eyes.

The wickedness of the Blue Fire Wolf had caused a lifetime of pain for all the villages within miles of the mountain.

On the outside, Fang Zhengzhi's current state still seemed very brave and powerful. At least, Zhang Yangping and the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad had already pinned their hopes on him.

But in reality, inside his heart, Fang Zhengzhi was deeply agonized.

What, I am very strong? That was just words to rea.s.sure himself. Compared to the Blue Fire Wolf…

”Snap!”

The shattering sound of rocks sounded out. The gigantic body of the Blue Fire Wolf crawled up. Faced with such immense strength, the broken pieces of rocks on the ground immediately exploded into powder.

How powerful the Blue Fire Wolf was can be seen from this.

”Awoo!”

Howling, the Blue Fire Wolf wildly rushed towards Fang Zhengzhi. It actually wasn't too far off the ground, its entire body keeping close to the ground. It was just like a ray of blue light.

Fang Zhengzhi had never before seen such an offensive tactic.

Don't tell me the offensive strategy of wolves aren't all about head-on pounces and going around in circles? Then, what's the meaning of this strange gliding scene in front of me?

Indeed, I can't try to understand this world based on my past thinking!

”I'll dodge!”

Oh, terrain!

His eyes suddenly lit up. Fang Zhengzhi, evidently not bothering to be graceful, rolled on the ground towards his right, ending up behind a rock.

Having pounced at thin air, the Blue Fire Wolf didn't stop at all. Its humongous body twisted around, and two b.a.l.l.s of fire suddenly erupted from its two hind claws.

It was like stepping on two b.a.l.l.s of fire.

Then, initially pouncing towards the front, its entire body forcefully changed direction and was instantly pouncing towards Fang Zhengzhi's back.

Nearer, nearer…

At this moment, the two front claws of the Blue Fire Wolf also burst into two bright-red b.a.l.l.s of flame. There was even a small flame dancing in its faint blue pupils.

A wave of scorching smell spread out, a smell so provoking that it even numbed the scalp of Fang Zhengzhi.

Experience, was what he lacked the most. Real hunters would never turn their heads at such moments.

But, Fang Zhengzhi wasn't aware of this. He turned his head, and saw that the Blue Fire Wolf was already less than one meter from his back, those razor-sharp fangs dripping with a faint trace of blood…

”Am I going to die?!” Fang Zhengzhi wasn't G.o.dlike, at this instant, he had no way of retaliating. He rolled on the floor, wanting to run…

He couldn't even stand up.

The huge stone was right in front of his eyes, but this single step was so far away. Like a huge ravine, there was simply no way of stepping across.

”Why is this Blue Fire Wolf's speed so fast?!” Fang Zhengzhi didn't give up, but he had no alternatives. The disparity in strength was too large, he simply couldn't dodge this strike.
