Chapter 174 - Surrounded By Wolves
Lei Yu didn’t stop andkept attacking several more times. This made the bird man in the air confused which caused him to rush at Lei Yu in desperation. Seeing that the mutant drew a dagger from his waist and diving at extreme speed, the opportunity Lei Yu was waiting for had finally arrived. Once the mutant bird man approached a certain distance and reached the optimum attack range, Lei Yu suddenly opened up his arms. He then jumped forth with his hands charged with lightning power, watching the energy drill into the mutant bird’s body without any resistance.
“Agghh!” After the miserable cry, this Fifth Rank Mutant’s life thus came to an end with no chance of ever standing up again. As for his wings with brown feathers on his back, they were all charred black emitting a burnt smell in the air. Lei Yu gently waved his hand past his nose to get rid of this smell. Even though he didn’t use up too much internal energy, who knew what else he would encounter later? It won’t be easy when dealing with Dr. Tony!
Lei Yu carefully walked towards a door where those previous four Fifth Rank Mutants came from. After strengthening his right arm, a powerful punch landed on the door creating a large hole. Lei Yu put his arm through the hole to unlock the door from the inside and went in.
Inside was a huge open space, its square footage was similar to the second floor arena of his nightclub. But this space was completely dark and empty, and some sort of ghastly aura was coming from an unknown direction. Lei Yu increased his vigilance and released his perception ability hoping to probe the surrounding area to figure out what was going on.
“Living entities have appeared!” This was the first thing that alerted Lei Yu, and there wasn’t just one or two of them. There were over a hundred of them and they were all slowly coming towards him in the darkness.
Being surrounded by enemies was something Lei Yu had faced before, but having so many opponents who weren’t ordinary people was something completely different. Even though most of them were at the Third Order level, there was still one with the strength of a Fourth Order. Facing such an imposing momentum still oppressed Lei Yu somewhat.
“Might as well attack first instead of waiting for them to make their move.” Lei Yu thought to himself. After detecting a gap in a certain direction with fewer mobs, Lei Yu figured that was as good as any place to weather the coming storm. Making up his mind, Lei Yu quickly sprinted towards that direction.
What Lei Yu didn’t expect was when he got closer to his opponents; they actually weren’t mutants but were a pack of wolves. With their gray fur and green eyes, these wolves looked especially terrifying in this dimly lit place. Lei Yu sucked in a deep breath as a dozen or so hungry looking wolves charged at him. Saliva was dripping from their white fangs as if they had been starved for a very long time. They way they stared at Lei Yu showed the wolves were considering him as their meal.
Lei Yu wasn’t going to give these animals an opening chance. Quickly appearing next to a wolf and with his fingers like an eagle’s claw, Lei Yu gripped the wolf’s throat. Lei Yu looked around and noticed that there was still some distance between him and other wolves. He turned back to look at the wolf in his grip and felt that it had some human intelligence - this wolf actually had fear and panic in its eyes.
Without mercy, Lei Yu put strength in his fingers and a “crack” sound was heard. The wolf just took its last breath. Meanwhile, Lei Yu’s figure rapidly dashed towards another direction like lightning and arrived next to another wolf.
After charging his fist with lightning, he raised it and let it fly forth. His punch even produced some tremors in the air as it landed heavily onto the wolf’s head. A “boom” sound was heard as it’s head shattered; another wolf had died. “You bunch of animals, come at me!” Roared Lei Yu. After watching their own brethren being killed, the pack of wolves revealed their bloodthirsty eyes. The solidarity of wolves was common knowledge no matter what the situation was. A wolf’s howl with resentment was heard from a distance and all the other wolves immediately rushed at Lei Yu. Lei Yu’s speed was absolute and just shifting his feet; his figure disappeared and reappeared off far from where he was. “Bang!” Lei Yu’s heavy kick caused a wolf to fly off into the air somewhere. Lei Yu then flipped backwards and beautifully somersaulted in the air to land on the back of another wolf. The wolf panicked and frantically struggled but how could it escape from the grasp of Lei Yu? A heavy palm strike slapped down and completely shattered the wolf’s skull.
A wolf’s head was similar to a dog’s and was extremely hard. And this wolf had the same strength as a Third Order Warrior. Being able to shatter the wolf’s skull with a palm strike showed how tyrannical Lei Yu’s attack was!
