Gong Moze quickly replied: Yes, we've been friends for a long time!
Lin Jin looked up into his sincere eyes and felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
Lin Jin suddenly turned to Gong Moze and said very seriously: "Go and inform the team to be on alert! A large animal is approaching within 3 kilometers!"
Although Gong Moze was surprised, he quickly issued orders, "Everyone on alert, wild animals are approaching. Lin Sheng, Shu Hai, you two take two people to protect Dr. Lin. Wei Qin, Da You, you come with me. The rest of you, prepare for battle!"
Gong Moze and the two quickly disappeared from their sight. Lin Jin felt a growing unease. She looked at the soldiers surrounding her and whispered, "Everyone be careful, this area is fraught with danger." The soldiers responded in unison. A short while later, low roars and sounds of fighting echoed in the distance. Lin Jin clenched her fists, her heart pounding. Suddenly, a huge black shadow lunged at them. The soldiers protecting Lin Jin quickly raised their guns and fired. The shadow was incredibly agile; the bullets only grazed its fur. Just as the shadow was about to pounce on them, a flash of cold light appeared. It was Gong Moze, who had returned just in time, his long sword plunging deep into the shadow's body. The shadow crashed to the ground—it was a massive black panther. Gong Moze, panting heavily, looked at Lin Jin, "Dr. Lin, it's alright." Lin Jin breathed a sigh of relief and went to examine the panther's corpse, her eyes filled with curiosity, "Why did this black panther suddenly attack us? Could it have been provoked or driven here?"
Gong Moze's expression changed! "Stay alert, don't let your guard down. There might be other wild animals coming soon." Just as he finished speaking, pairs of glowing green eyes appeared in the distance. There were so many, they were everywhere the eyes could see, so everyone was frightened by the sight. Someone asked Gong Moze, "Captain, there are so many wolves, we definitely can't kill them all. You take Dr. Lin and go first, we'll stay behind to cover the rear."
With a solemn expression, Gong Moze instructed: "Lin Sheng, Shu Hai, take Dr. Lin and retreat from the north first!"
Lin Sheng wanted to say something more, but was loudly reprimanded by Gong Moze! Obey orders!
Lin Jin was just wondering whether to use medicine or silver needles to deal with these wolves, but she didn't hear that Gong Moze had already made arrangements for her!
It wasn't until Lin Sheng and Shu Hai came to help her that she came to her senses. She said excitedly, "Gong Moze, you really underestimate me! We came together. You want me to leave first? I'm not your team member, and Chief Yu said on the way here that you have to listen to me!"
As the wolf pack drew closer, Gong Moze said anxiously, "Dr. Lin, now is not the time to discuss who should listen to whom. You must leave first."
Lin Jin calmly said, "Don't worry, I can protect myself! You just focus on killing the wolves, you don't need to protect me. I'll stand by the fire. The wolves won't attack me." Gong Moze didn't know what Lin Jin's expression was. He just said anxiously, "I know, these wolves won't attack us now. They'll slowly surround us, and then wait until the fire goes out! Then they'll all pounce. I estimated there were over a hundred wolves here before! We 20 people have no chance of winning. We'll save whoever we can!"
"I know what you're saying!" Lin Jin took out a small packet of powder from her bag, walked over to Gong Moze, and distributed the powder to the team members. "If a wolf gets even a tiny bit on it, it will be immobilized immediately!"
Gong Moze asked excitedly: "Will this harm people?"
"Don't worry, just tell the soldiers to put on their clothes and masks. As long as the powder doesn't touch the wounds, it's fine. Even if it does, it's okay. I have the antidote!"
Gong Moze distributed the powder only to a few team members who were skilled in close combat. He explained how to use it and the precautions. Then he prepared to kill the wolf pack.
They still assigned two people to protect Lin Jin. Lin Jin felt helpless; with someone watching her, how could she perform?
Having practiced the Banquet Returning Skill and acupuncture techniques for so long, she was eager to put them to the test! Lin Jin took out two more packets of medicinal powder from her spatial storage and handed them to the two team members protecting her, saying, "You two go kill the wolves too. I'm fine. I have plenty of this powder, and I'll stand by the fire, so the wolves won't come near me!" The two team members were somewhat convinced, but then shook their heads.
Lin Jin quickly said, "Look, they've fired! The wolves are attacking! You need to go help!"
The team members were very anxious. They watched their companions fight the wolves while they could only watch. They gritted their teeth, grabbed the medicine powder, and ran out. Lin Jin saw the wolf pack surround everyone and quickly took action. Gong Moze also ordered that the medicine powder could be used. In the blink of an eye, four wolves fell down. In less than a minute, more than 30 wolves had stopped breathing.
In no time, more than half of the wolf pack had died, some were poisoned and then shot.
The wolf king looked at his companions who had been killed by humans. Although he was unwilling, he still summoned the remaining companions to retreat and let out a mournful howl as they left!
