Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Mutation Giant Wolf

Yang Xiao’s genetic attributes are all at 10 points, with Agility at 12 points. Adding 3 points of agility from the Sparrow Bow and 2 points from the wristband, his Agility Attribute reaches 17 points.

An increase in the Strength Attribute will boost attack damage.

The Feather Arrow Skill is at level 6, and with each level increase, not only does it add another Arrow Shadow, but it also increases the speed and damage of the Arrow Technique.

At this moment, Yang Xiao is absolutely a terrifying figure at an Assassin Level.

In the darkness, the arrow shot out like lightning, suddenly splitting into 7 Arrow Shadows.

Pfft!

The pair of green eyes in front was instantly extinguished.

Howl—

A mournful scream cut through the night sky.

The other Arrow Shadows spread out, hitting two nearby monsters, entering their bodies with a pfft as well.

Eyes are the weakest point of defense, whereas a monster’s body is significantly stronger in defense.

The Feathered Arrows penetrated about ten centimeters into the monster’s body, not too deep, causing limited damage but enough to make the monsters howl in pain.

Yang Xiao continuously fired arrows, aiming specifically at the green eyes running through the dark night. Each arrow could extinguish two green eyes, filling the night with constant screams.

The people inside the cave were also alarmed and fearful upon hearing the monsters’ screams outside.

Before, their hunting of Mutated Creatures was mostly comprised of insects, with the occasional mutated rat, rabbit, stray dog, or wild boar. They had never encountered a scene with hundreds of mutated fierce beasts charging like they were now.

In an instant, the twenty-meter distance was covered. Yang Xiao fired four arrows in quick succession, as dozens of pairs of green eyes charged towards the cave entrance.

Howl—

In the night sky, a series of terrifying cries echoed.

Yang Xiao stood on the iron ring on the cave entrance wall, surprised to see dozens of pairs of green eyes suddenly soar into the air, leaping towards the cave entrance.

Among them, two pairs of green eyes soared more than ten meters high, pouncing towards the direction of the iron bar where Yang Xiao had fired.

”Fuck!”

Yang Xiao cursed under his breath, quickly releasing an arrow from the Sparrow Bow at one of the pairs of green eyes, and shouted at the same time:

”Electric Magic, attack, attack, quick!”

Led by Chen Lu, the twenty-plus Electric Element Mages were already prepared. Hearing Yang Xiao’s shout, everyone launched their attacks. Over twenty electric arcs struck the iron door in an instant, emitting a blinding flash of electric light.

”Sizzle....”

The sound of electric arcs was deafening, and in an instant, the entire cave entrance was lit up by the glow of the arcs, as bright as day.

At that moment, the iron doors on either side of the cave entrance burst open with a ”boom,” violently shaking, as if on the verge of collapsing.

Crack, crack, crack...

The iron sheets covering the doors were smashed through, and ten sharp and massive claws tore through the metal, penetrating the iron doors, with even three or four monsters’ heads smashing through the iron bars, sticking half of their heads inside.

”Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...”

Loud electric arcs sounded again, and all the monsters that touched the iron door were subjected to a strong electric shock, instantly becoming numb.

Long Yongjun, clutching the Dog Blood Blade, roared:

”Kill them!”

With a lunge, he rushed forward and viciously slashed at the head of a monster that had penetrated through the iron door.

With a crack, blood splattered. Long Yongjun brutally cleaved off half of the monster’s head, killing it on the spot.

Zhao Gang also thrust his sword into the mouth of a monster, piercing through the monster’s brain.

The rest surged forward, using their swords to chop at the claws of the monsters that were stuck on the iron gate.

However, those claws were extremely hard, and it was almost impossible to make a cut if the sword directly struck the claws; only by striking a bit further back, on the front legs, could they wound them.

Several monsters’ front legs were directly chopped off by the group and fell into the kiln cave.

Chen Lu, accompanied by more than twenty Electric Mages, continuously unleashed electric arcs to attack the iron gate, numbing and dazing the first wave of monsters that came into contact with the gate.

Yang Xiao shot an arrow that blinded a pair of green eyes, while another monster still pounced towards him like lightning.

Too close for an arrow, Yang Xiao drew the Golden Bee Sword with his backhand, thrusting it straight through the iron bars and stabbing fiercely.

Bang!

The monster collided directly with the iron bars, breaking two thick bars, and its sharp claws penetrated the gate, with its green eyes suddenly lunging in front of Yang Xiao.

Puchi!

Yang Xiao’s Golden Bee Sword pierced into one green eye and went deep into the monster’s brain.

The monster, already somewhat numbed by the electric shock from the gate, instantly died from Yang Xiao’s sword to the brain.

...

All of these actions were almost simultaneously completed within a few seconds.

The sounds of killing inside the kiln cave and the howling of monsters outside merged into one, shattering the night sky.

The monsters’ first wave of assault only lasted two to three minutes before it ended. They had thought that the kiln cave was only defended by an iron gate and did not expect that such a powerful electric current would be on the gate. Though not fatal, the electric current could instantly daze and numb the monsters, rendering them unable to fight.

They were sitting ducks, left to be slaughtered by Yang Xiao and the others.

Standing on the iron ring of the wall, Yang Xiao could see clearly in the light of the electric arcs: these monsters were indeed a pack of wolves, but their sizes were tremendous, each standing 2 meters tall and about 3 meters long—compared to wolves before the apocalypse, they were terrifyingly large.

”These are mutated giant wolves, everyone be careful. They have very strong attack power, and wolves are incredibly smart and cunning, skilled at group combat... The giant wolves’ first round of attack has failed, and they’ve retreated about twenty meters away. Don’t let your guard down, Electric Mages can take a brief rest,”

Yang Xiao said while standing on the iron ring of the wall.

Long Yongjun, full of heroic spirit, picked up a severed wolf head from the ground and loudly said:

”Brothers, no matter what giant wolves they are, didn’t they get split in half by my blade just the same? There must be at least five or six bodies outside the gate, right? Awesome, we can have roast wolf meat tomorrow, right boss?”

Long Yongjun’s last sentence instantly dispersed the tense atmosphere in the kiln cave; everyone laughed heartily, and the thought of eating wolf meat even made some of them drool.

Although there was plenty of jerky inside the kiln cave, everyone had been cautious not to eat too much without a new food source.

But now, the wolves had delivered meat to their doorstep.

Perhaps because their first sniper attack on the wolves was successful, everyone’s fear of the mutated giant wolves dissipated quite a bit, and morale soared.

Yang Xiao then shouted to Xu Nanqiang:

”Xu Nanqiang, organize the logistics team to start a fire and stir-fry some jerky for a late-night snack for everyone.”

”Alright, boss. Can we eat our fill tonight?”

”Eat your fill. If everyone is full, we’ll have the energy. As soon as it’s light, we’ll rush out to kill wolves.”

”Good!”

Everyone shouted in unison, the atmosphere in the kiln cave was warm, akin to the festive spirit of the New Year.

Xu Nanqiang immediately took dozens of people from the logistics team to prepare the late-night snack. A thirty-meter-long recess was specially dug next to the kiln cave to serve as a kitchen, which had a chimney to vent the cooking smoke outside the cave.

Yang Xiao did not dare to relax, standing on the iron ring, his eyes constantly watching the area where the wolf pack gathered.
