"Awoo~ Awoo~~" A wolf howl pierced the night sky, making the already silent wilderness even more eerie and terrifying.
Startled awake by the sound, Jiang An abruptly stood up, raising his gun high in the air.
In an instant, pairs of bright green eyes rushed toward her from all directions, as if to devour the dark wilderness.
Jiang An couldn't determine the exact number of wolves, but she didn't show the slightest sign of panic.
She reacted quickly, picking up a burning piece of wood from the fire with her left hand and throwing it directly at the wolves.
The raging flames drew an arc in the air before falling into the wolf pack.
Animals have an innate fear of fire, and sure enough, the sudden burst of flames caused the wolves to retreat a few steps.
However, with a sharp and deep howl, the wolf pack charged again.
Nevertheless, Jiang An did not lose his composure as the wolf pack approached.
She calmly observed the wolves' movements, waiting for the best opportunity.
When the wolves were close enough to her, she pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang!" A gunshot shattered the silence of the night, and a wolf fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, she quickly adjusted the muzzle of her gun and fired a second shot, a third shot... Each bullet hit its target precisely, and wolves fell one after another into pools of blood.
The wolf pack's offensive rhythm was disrupted by this series of fierce shots, and some wolves began to feel fear, no longer daring to approach easily.
Thus, the two sides reached a stalemate, each waiting for the other to show weakness.
She gripped the pistol tightly, ready to respond to any possible attack.
After an unknown amount of time, a long and deep wolf howl suddenly came from behind the wolf pack.
The voice carried an air of authority and dominance, as if it were a signal from the leader of a wolf pack.
The stalemate between the two sides was broken instantly.
A major battle is imminent.
Jiang An's expression instantly turned serious; she knew this meant the wolf pack was about to launch an even more ferocious attack.
"Damn it, this is an order to attack!" Jiang An thought to himself, inwardly groaning.
She stared intently at the pack of wolves ahead, silently praying that she could find a way to break through.
At the same time, he pointed his gun at one of the largest wolves, ready to fire at any moment.
The moment the wolf moved, Jiang An's pistol followed closely behind. After two shots, the last two bullets in the magazine were punctured.
It was too late; Jiang An didn't have time to reload.
She immediately put the pistol into her backpack, and then a Tang sword suddenly appeared in her hand.
At that moment, a wolf came up in front of her and pounced on her.
Jiang An used her knife to parry, dodging the wolf's pounce and slashing at its hind leg. The wolf fell to the ground in pain, and she took the opportunity to step forward, avoiding attacks from the other wolves.
The Tang sword flashed in her hand, its cold light gleaming, and clashed with the wolf fangs, producing a crisp sound.
The stench of blood filled the air, spurring the wolves to attack even more frantically.
Sweat beaded on Jiang An's forehead, but her gaze was firm and her movements were swift.
Suddenly, she spotted the leader of the pack, a huge black wolf.
She took a deep breath, her face resolute as she charged toward the black wolf, deciding to adopt the strategy of capturing the leader first.
With a "bang," came the sound of a crossbow bolt being fired.
