Chapter 38 Protection

Yun wanted to just sit down and rest. Was this mutant cat level 4 or 5? Why was it so difficult to deal with?

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a scream coming from the collection site, and someone ran back while stuffing medicine into his mouth.

I saw several level three mutant animals attacking the crowd first, followed by a large group of level one and level two mutants. The scene was in chaos.

There were cries of grief everywhere. A few volunteers remained calm. While fighting the mutated animals, they gathered the crowd together, formed a protective circle, and kept the people inside.

Yun Xiang joined the battle and threw out a defensive talisman. The defensive talisman she made now could withstand five attacks.

But because there were so many mutant animals, they would occasionally slip through the net and be quickly destroyed by sneak attacks. Fortunately, she did a lot.

Yun wanted to pull the steward to his side and asked, "Do you have a protective shield?"

"It's been requisitioned." All good things must be sent to the front first. This is an unwritten rule among many parties.

"Not a single one left?"

"Nothing has happened before." I was too careless, the manager couldn't help but reflect on it.

"Can you try to contact them again?" They had few people who could fight, and they were afraid they couldn't hold out for long.

The manager kept calling for help on the communicator, but there was no response from the other party. It was estimated that there were more than one attacks.

Yun Xiang saw that the steward had finally dialed the communicator and asked hurriedly, "How is it?"

"We've got in touch, we'll be there soon!" Yun Xiang and several volunteers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Have you noticed that these mutant animals are a little different?"

Although she had seen very few of them, she had discovered that the fighting power of these animals was very different from what was described in the books.

"I've participated in hunting at this time of year in previous years. These Level 3 animals are much stronger than before, whether in terms of speed, strength, or agility."

"Huff, huff..." Yun Xiang took a breath after killing one. "That's not all. They seem to get stronger in battle."

"I feel it too. Damn, my hands are numb!"

"You guys protect them here, I'll go kill those ones!" Yun Xiang stuffed a few more defensive talismans into each volunteer's hand.

My goodness, when did the rabbit and the wolf become good friends? Since both parties agreed, she just killed them both.

After dealing with these few, Yun Xiang started to circle around the periphery, specifically targeting the fierce ones to relieve the pressure for the others.

She has a higher rank here, so it's natural for her to shoulder this heavy burden.

It's strange that these mutated animals, looking at piles of prey, don't bite and eat them, but instead attack them madly.

Generally speaking, prey prefers to be alive, but some are not picky. Why isn't there any one trying to steal the prey? I can't possibly suspect they've poisoned me!

Hey, the more he thought about it, the more he got carried away. Yun wanted to retract his thoughts and deliberately provoke the beasts, lure a wave of them away, and defeat them one by one.

Suddenly, a large number of hard and sharp thorns flew towards Yun Xiang quickly, "bang bang", "crack——"

The spikes hit the protective shield and it slipped off, and the protective shield was destroyed along with it.

Yun felt a little sorry for a moment. This was something Xie Yu had given her before they set off. He said it was a defective product of Chu Xu's refined weapon. It only had a protection range of 1 meter and could not be used for other purposes. It was just right for her to protect herself.

But she knew clearly that Chu Xu had always refined offensive weapons. If he was willing to spend a lot of time researching this, he must have used some means to force her.

Thinking of this, Yun Xiang strangely didn't feel sorry at all. She was sure that she would have several such defensive weapons in the future.

Uh, should she take the moral high ground and condemn Xie Yu, or should she follow Xie Yu's lead? It seems like there's no difference.

Seeing the mutant animals surrounding them, Yun wanted to step on the corpses of his prey and reach the top in a few strides.

Only then did she see clearly that the one attacking her was a hedgehog, a hedgehog riding on mutated goat horns. No wonder she hadn't noticed it just now.

This hedgehog's level is obviously higher than the animals around it. It knows how to hide itself and give orders secretly. It is at least level 5.

Don’t hedgehogs hibernate? Yun Xiang was surprisingly unaffected.

This hedgehog, probably angered by Yun Xiang, commanded wave after wave of lower-level animals to besiege her.

Yun wanted to use teak arrows to drive away the surrounding animals, but the effect was not very good, so he immediately changed to a magic weapon.

Three arrows imbued with power were fired at the same time. The arrow energy cut a path among the mutant animals, and she quickly broke out of the encirclement.

Looking at the mutant animals rushing forward and behind, she immediately chose one and jumped on it, pretending that they were the mobile plum blossom stakes she used when practicing archery.

Yun wanted to move freely among the mutant animals. Every time she jumped, a circle of mutant animals would pounce on the animal at her feet.

It instantly became a mess, which saved a lot of effort and delayed time.

Occasionally, when she couldn't avoid it, she would trap it with an ice talisman and then kill it with an arrow.

The ice talisman is a new talisman she made. It can trap three low-level mutant animals at a time, while the medium-level one can only slow down their speed.

She was also contented. After all, this guy had made an indelible contribution to the fight against the caracal just now.

I originally wanted to go to the Jiaoxing Star to collect materials, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Yun Xiang estimated the time and felt it was about time, so he picked a mutant pig and jumped on it.

The mutant pig was extremely violent, roaring and shaking its head, trying to throw her off. This time she did not jump away in a hurry.

Instead, she let the animals around her surround her, and with a wave of her hand, six talismans rose into the air at the same time.

The mutant pig continued to shake off the prey on its body and jumped up angrily. Yun wanted to use the momentum of its jump to spin his body in the air and raise six magic arrows.

Six arrows were fired at once, hitting six talismans at the same time. "Bang Bang" all the talismans exploded at the same time.

In an instant, gorgeous flowers bloomed on the surrounding animals, and when the flowers withered, wealth was everywhere.

Yun Xiang landed safely on the ground. This wave of group attacks was both beautiful and clean.

"Youyou!" Now there is only one person who calls her that. "I'm here to protect you!"

Following a loud shout, Xie Yu quickly jumped off the hovercraft and rushed over.

...The expression is correct, the words are correct, the scene... is correct, but no matter how you look at it, it's all peacekeeping.

"Puff!" Yun Xiang's hand trembled, and the arrow lost its previous level, giving Xie Yu a big gift.

"Ah - Youyou, you murdered your husband!" Xie Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead exaggeratedly.

When he first heard the news, he was indeed very worried, but when he saw that heroic scene, he suddenly felt itchy and couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Serves you right! I'll let you keep talking nonsense!"

"Youyou, this is from the bottom of my heart. Don't you think you still haven't felt my sincerity?"

“…Get to work!”

"Okay!" Looking at that servile look, everyone was itching to bite him. Soon they found that it was not just itching to bite, but they were tortured to the point of being irritated.

"You're just a mouse, and with the scent you're just a princess mouse at best. Why do you think you've changed your species? Go back to where you came from!"

"Since when did a rabbit that eats grass start to eat people? Your mother didn't give you two big front teeth, but that wasn't the way it was made.

Since you don't know how to cherish, I'll be the bad guy and cut off your teeth for your ancestors!

Everyone shuddered, bro, are you serious?
