Chapter 16: Defeat the Wolf King

"Damn it, this is weird!"

The hunter's curses were still echoing in the cave, but Chen Changyuan's heart suddenly sank.

An inexplicable sense of crisis enveloped him, and his hair stood on end.

He stared at the cave entrance, sweat oozing from the palms of his hands holding the hatchet.

His intuition told him that the wolf had not gone far away, but was lurking in a corner, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

The old leader was still analyzing the wolf's possible escape route, and other hunters were also talking about it, but no one noticed Chen Changyuan's change.

Chen Changyuan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He carefully observed the surrounding environment, trying to find any clues.

Suddenly, his eyes focused on a protruding rock above the cave entrance.

The rock was slightly darker than the surrounding rocks, as if it had been rubbed by something.

Chen Changyuan held his breath, slowly raised the torch in his hand, and shone it above the rock.

In the light of the fire, he saw a faint trail of blood extending up the rock and disappearing into the darkness.

"Up!" Chen Changyuan shouted and jumped back suddenly.

Almost at the same time, a gray-black figure pounced down from above the rock and let out a low roar.

That was the missing male wolf!

It was hiding in the cracks of the rocks above the cave entrance, waiting for the hunters to let down their guard, and then launching a fatal attack!

If Chen Changyuan had not discovered it in time, he would probably have been knocked to the ground by this ferocious beast.

The male wolf missed his attack and fell heavily to the ground, whimpering in pain.

It was already seriously injured, and the fall made the situation even worse.

"Awooo--" The male wolf let out a shrill howl and pounced on Chen Changyuan again.

Chen Changyuan was prepared and dodged the attack of the male wolf by moving sideways.

At the same time, he swung the hatchet in his hand and hit the wolf's abdomen hard.

“Puff—”

The sound of the sharp blade entering the flesh could be clearly heard. A deep wound was cut on the male wolf's abdomen, and blood gushed out.

The male wolf let out a scream and staggered back a few steps.

"You beast, where are you going to run to?"

Lao Yuantou and other hunters also reacted, raised their weapons and rushed towards the injured male wolf.

For a moment, the cave was filled with deafening shouts and screams, flickering flames, and human figures were intertwined.

Although the injured male wolf was ferocious, he was ultimately outnumbered.

Under the siege of the crowd, it quickly fell in a pool of blood and was no longer moving.

"Finally dead!" A hunter breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The other hunters also put down their weapons, with joy on their faces at having survived the disaster.

Old Yuantou walked up to Chen Changyuan, patted him on the shoulder, and said approvingly:

"Good boy, thanks to you this time, otherwise we would all be in trouble."

Chen Changyuan smiled and said:

"Uncle Yuan, I was lucky to find the bloodstains on that rock."

Lao Yuantou squatted down and carefully examined the wolf's body, but his expression gradually became solemn.

"This wolf... is the Wolf King." He said slowly, with a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

"Wolf King?" A hunter came forward. "Uncle Yuan, how did you know?"

Lao Yuantou pointed at a circle of gray-white hair on the wolf's neck.

"See? This is the symbol of the Wolf King. Ordinary wolves don't have it."

He paused, then added, "Also, this wolf is much larger than the average wolf, and its eyes are more ferocious."

The hunters all gasped when they heard this.

Wolves are social animals, and the wolf king is the leader of the pack.

They killed the wolf king, and the wolves will definitely come for revenge!

"Then... what should we do?" A young hunter's voice trembled.

The old man stood up, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice:

"There's only one way. Arrange a hunt ahead of time and catch all these wolves in one fell swoop!"

The hunters looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.

Hunting wolves is no joke. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

"Uncle Yuan, this... isn't this too dangerous?"

The old man sighed heavily.

"I know it's dangerous, but we have no other choice. Instead of waiting for the wolves to retaliate, we should take the initiative and attack. Maybe there's still a chance of survival."

He paused and his eyes fell on Chen Changyuan.

"Changyuan, you are a brave and careful kid. You have to help me with this hunt."

Chen Changyuan nodded.

Soon it was night, and the strong smell of blood filled the mountains and forests, which was undoubtedly the best call to the wolves.

The cold wind howled and the shadows of the trees swayed, as if countless pairs of green eyes were peering in the darkness.

The hunters sat around the fire, the atmosphere was suffocatingly solemn.

"Here it comes!" The old man's low voice broke the silence.

Just as he finished speaking, a sharp wolf howl pierced the night sky, and then countless green points of light emerged from all directions, surrounding them like a tide.

"Light the torch!"

At the old leader's command, the hunters lit the torches they had prepared long ago, illuminating the area around the cave.

The vanguard of the wolf pack is approaching. They are strong, with gray-black fur, and their eyes are full of bloodthirsty murderous gleams.

"kill!"

The hunters roared, waving their axes and spears, and fought with the wolves.

Chen Changyuan picked up his hunting rifle and aimed at a wolf that was rushing in the front. With a "bang" the gun went off and the wolf fell to the ground.

"Good marksmanship!" a hunter exclaimed.
