Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 145: Chapter 145 What’s Going On? (Five Updates)

Yang Xiao returned to Kongming Academy’s Transmission Array with everyone, and suddenly smacked his thigh, exclaiming:

”Ah, what a waste!”

Yang Xiao’s sudden shout startled Zhao Gang and the others.

”Boss, what happened?”

”Damn it, did we just kill seven or eight Snow Wolves?”

”That’s right.”

”But we didn’t pick up the Snow Wolf Armor they dropped.”

”Ah?”

Everyone was dumbfounded. Yang Xiao seemed to value equipment over life itself. Although they had temporarily fended off the Snow Wolves’ attack, with the Wolf King and over a hundred Snow Wolves surging towards them, they wouldn’t have been able to leave if they stayed any later, especially if the Snow Wolves got close—that would be no laughing matter.

Long Yongjun chuckled:

”Boss, how come you’re even greedier than me?”

Yang Xiao gave Long Yongjun a glare and said:

”You guys have put on Snow Wolf Armor already, but there are still many who haven’t. With this snowy and icy world outside, no one can go out for a stroll. Isn’t that boring? I’ve got an idea. After I get a set of Snow Wolf Armor for everyone, how about converting this playground into an ice rink? Then people can come out and skate whenever they have nothing to do, and with the orange glow from the Genetic Store protecting us, everyone can play safely.”

Yang Xiao had a deep memory of skating in the county town during his high school days. He and a bunch of buddies would go skating every weekend. The first time he held his girlfriend’s hand was at the ice rink. The idea of building an ice rink suddenly popped into his mind.

Everyone thought it was a great idea. After the snow on the playground hardened, it could be transformed into an ice rink at any time.

Yang Xiao and everyone walked back to the cave, thinking about the wolf packs at Xianan University. With two wolf packs and over two hundred Snow Wolves, if all were hunted, they could obtain at least a hundred or two hundred sets of Snow Wolf Armor, enough to equip quite a number of people.

Seeing Yang Xiao returning from afar, Xiao Zhe had someone open the cave’s door and came out to greet him.

Deng Xiao, concerned about her cousin Xia Luo, ran up to Yang Xiao and anxiously asked.

”Boss, did you deliver the food safely?”

”Hmm, what do you think?”

Yang Xiao spread his hands, indicating that he no longer had food on him, so of course it was delivered.

”How is my cousin Xia Luo?”

”Don’t worry, he won’t die.”

Hearing this, Deng Xiao’s worry finally eased.

Yang Xiao then added:

”Although he won’t die, he still has to suffer some. The next few days are crucial. If he’s lucky enough to make it through, he’ll basically have overcome this calamity. Otherwise, it’s hard to say whether Xianan University will be annihilated by the Snow Wolves.”

Yang Xiao had no idea what kind of Beast Soul Skills Xia Luo and Zhou Qiang would be able to trigger. He could only pray that Xia Luo would be able to unleash some powerful Soul Skills to match the Snow Wolves.

Back in the cave, Yang Xiao took a sip of water and saw Feifei and Qin Yu chatting away. Suddenly feeling inspired, he walked over and said:

”Feifei, how’s your Magic Hair Divine Skill coming along? I haven’t been paying much attention to you lately.”

Feifei smiled happily, her face blooming like a pumpkin flower, and said:

”Let me show you.”

With a whoosh, Feifei’s Magic Hair shot out, nearly reaching twenty meters in length.

Yang Xiao’s mind lit up and he asked:

”How long can the vines that you Plant Soul System users cast?”

”Well, it depends on the individual’s progress in the Genetic Plan and their level of evolution. Those with a high level of evolution can reach over twenty meters, and even those with lower levels can reach more than ten meters. Why, does Brother Yang Xiao need any help?”

Yang Xiao smiled and said:

”Feifei is really as clever as he looks, bright as the snow, haha, of course, big bro needs your help with something.”

Upon hearing Yang Xiao teasing Feifei, Qin Yu and the others burst into laughter.

”Help me pick ten people from the Plant Soul System with the highest evolution.”

Feifei was stunned and asked:

”When do you need them?”

”Now, immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Feifei immediately entered the cave and picked out ten people, lining them up in front of Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao called Xiao Zhe, Zhao Gang, Chen Fei, Long Yongjun, and others over, saying:

”I have a new plan, we’re going to Xianan University to catch wolves.”

Everyone looked at Yang Xiao with a clueless expression, wondering what kind of crazy idea he had this time.

Yang Xiao immediately shared his thoughts.

”Actually, it’s quite simple. This time we mainly bring Electric Mages and those from the Plant Soul System, along with a dozen or so Close Combat Beast Souls. We’ll take advantage of the instant teleportation of the Transmission Array. When we appear at Xianan University, Snow Wolves will pounce at us. We’ll injure a few Snow Wolves, then Feifei and the others will use vines to entangle the wounded Snow Wolves, and teleport back to Kongming Academy. Here at the Transmission Array, a hundred Close Combat Beast Souls are prepared. Isn’t it easy to deal with a few injured Snow Wolves?”

This strategy was actually a trick Yang Xiao often used when playing games, especially when facing a boss that was too strong. Lure it to a nearby Transmission Array, keep attacking furiously, and when your health is almost depleted, quickly escape through the Transmission Array to heal, then teleport back and continue the onslaught. After several rounds, the boss could be worn down.

Xiao Zhe and others felt that this strategy was decent, so they formed a team right away, everyone cooperating with each other in practice.

After an hour or two of coordination, the different types of fighters had developed a tacit understanding of how to work together in combat.

”Remember, when the Snow Wolves are entangled and pulled to the Transmission Array, Electric Mages must keep shocking them to ensure they are stunned, or the Close Combat Beast Souls can straight up kill the Snow Wolves. Everyone, make sure to remember, safety first. Do not run out of the transmission station. I will be ready to press the transmission button at any time. If you leave the transmission station, I can hardly guarantee your safety.”

Everyone practiced the drill a couple more times until they more or less had memorized it. Yang Xiao then led Xiao Zhe, Zhao Gang, Chen Fei, Long Yongjun, Feifei, and the others on their way. This time, it was Huang Wen’s turn to stay behind and look after the place.

Dai Yun took dozens of Close Combat Beast Souls and waited near the Transmission Array, ready to attack the Snow Wolves that would be teleported in.

Yang Xiao and his group of thirty-odd people had all donned Snow Wolf Armor. Dai Yun and the others didn’t have any, so they wrapped blankets around themselves from the cave and stood around the Transmission Array.

Everyone stood in the Transmission Array, Yang Xiao pressed the button on the halo, light flashed, and they appeared at Xianan University’s Transmission Array.

As soon as Yang Xiao and the others appeared, the surrounding Snow Wolves roared and pounced at them.

Instead of using the Soul Skill One Finger Splitting Earth, Yang Xiao used a sparrow bow, sending an arrow from afar straight into the eye of a Snow Wolf. The beast howled and rolled over a few times, landing nearby in the snow, motionless.

Feifei’s hair had already shot out, wrapping around the Snow Wolf’s thigh on the ground, and dragging it over directly.

Chen Fei’s Ice Cones were formidable—one of the jumping Snow Wolves got an Ice Pillar stabbed into its belly, turning into an icicle, and immediately two or three vines wrapped around it, pulling the Snow Wolf into the Transmission Array.

In less than a minute, four Snow Wolves were pulled into the Transmission Array one after another, securing two pieces of Snow Wolf Armor.

The initial battle was a success, safety first. Yang Xiao did not dare linger and fight, pressing the button on the halo. With another flash of light, everyone disappeared from Xianan University’s Transmission Array.

Ten or so Snow Wolves pounced to where they were, howling incessantly.

Xia Luo and the others were excitedly surrounding the newly caught Snow Wolf when suddenly they heard roaring and fighting from the direction of the Transmission Array. They all looked over and saw Yang Xiao and others battling with Snow Wolves.

Zhou Qiang was shocked and the first to rush over, thinking Yang Xiao might need his help again. He was very grateful for the food Yang Xiao had given him and naturally was the first to rush over to help.

Xia Luo and the others followed suit.

Just as they got there, before they had a chance to shout to Yang Xiao and the others, they saw the light flash, and Yang Xiao and his group disappeared.

Xia Luo and Zhou Qiang looked at each other in bewilderment.

What just happened?

Did I see that right?

I didn’t mishear; those Snow Wolves are still howling, and there’s blood on the snow.

What kind of trick is this?
