Hearing the shout, Emerson and Daley immediately grabbed their weapons and rushed out of the cave.
The two of them saw a gray shadow attacking Michael, who was lying on the ground beside the fire.
Michael struggled to wave his fists, blood flowing from his shoulders and legs.
Emerson shouted, and his spear pierced towards the grey shadow with a golden light. The grey shadow seemed to know the power of the spear and dodged to the side, dodging the spear and running into the forest.
Daley and Emerson could not be bothered to chase after the enemy. They hurriedly helped Michael into the cave, cleaned his wounds, and applied medicine.
"Wolf King."
Michael said as he took in a breath of cold air.
"Damn it, if I had a Mithril Axe, I would definitely hack it to death.”
"Strange, wild beasts are generally afraid of fire. Why would it attack you when you're by the fire?”
Daley asked.
"Who knows?"
Michael replied gloomily.
"Maybe it's too hungry, or maybe it thinks I'm easy to bully.”
"Don't worry about it for now."
said Emerson.
"Since there's a Wolf King, Michael, you and Daley stay here and don't go out. I'll keep watch.”
"That's the only way."
Michael, who had no weapons, and Daley, who could not hurt the Wolf King at all, agreed to Emerson's suggestion.
In the darkness of the night, Emerson stood guard beside the fire, his eyes vigilantly looking around. The dark forest was silent, like a silent giant mouth that could swallow him at any time. Both Emerson and the two people inside the cave felt that time was passing very slowly, as if the dawn of the future would never come.
However, the sky gradually brightened. Dawn had finally arrived. Emerson listened carefully to the surrounding movements and confirmed that there was nothing nearby. He sighed and turned back to the cave. The two people who had not slept in the cave for the whole night finally heaved a sigh of relief.
" There are five bears here. Michael's foot injury won't heal for a while, and I can't take too many things from the Wolf King. Daley, you can't take everything.”
Emerson frowned as he looked at the wound on Michael's foot.
"Damn it, when I recover, I will definitely go up the mountain to find it and chop it to death!”
Michael cursed.
"That's for the future. What do you think we should do now, Daley?”
"I think you have to go back and find someone to help.”
Daley knew what Emerson meant, but as the strongest fighter, it was obviously not convenient for him to say it.
"Michael and I can't hurt that alpha wolf. We might die on the way there. As long as we block the entrance carefully, we should be able to hold on for a few days.”
"Alright, then I'll set off immediately. If we hurry, I'll be able to bring people back here in three days.”
Emerson also made up his mind.
The three of them blocked the entrance with two boulders, leaving only a small gap for air to pass through. Then, Emerson set up a few warning traps outside.
"Alright, I'm leaving."
Emerson instructed through the air vent.
"Michael, you can find a few ribs and use them as daggers. Although you don't know how to use daggers, it's better than being empty-handed.”
"Thank you for your reminder."
Michael grinned and picked up a few ribs from the pile of bones.
"I'll make it look good."
"Then I'll be leaving. Take care."
"Don't worry, maybe you'll see the dead wolf's body when you get back here.”
"I hope so."
After saying that, Emerson picked up his spear and ran towards the village as fast as he could.
After Emerson left, the cave fell silent.
"Do you think we can kill that wolf?”
Michael asked.
"If you weren't injured, perhaps you could.”
Daley sighed.
"Now that you can't move and your weapon isn't suitable, we can only hope that we can survive these few days.”
"That's true."
Michael punched the wall beside him.
"If only I had a mithril axe, if only I wasn't hurt, damn it.”
"If I were a samurai…"
Daley said in a low voice.
"Don't say that."
Michael consoled.
"It's not up to you to decide on the promotion. You see, I broke through during the battle with the bear king. Perhaps you will break through during the battle with the wolf king.”
"I hope so."
Daley fiddled with the fire beside him.
"Michael, rest for a while. You're the main force, I'll be on guard. Emerson set up a few warning traps at the entrance.”
"Alright then."
After an intense fight the whole day yesterday and being injured last night, Mike really couldn't hold on any longer. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The wolf king lay quietly in the forest, looking at the cave entrance blocked by a huge rock from afar.
That cave originally belonged to a group of bears.
Last winter, he had found the body of the leopard cat. He had just eaten a few pieces of meat when he was chased away by the bears. The mysterious power contained in the flesh of the corpse made him reluctant to give up. However, he was only a wolf and the other party was a group of bears. There was no way to give up.
After a month of hunting and fighting, he suddenly obtained a mysterious power and even killed a bear in another area. This mysterious power obviously came from the body of the leopard cat. Therefore, he had come back to kill all the bears and see if there was anything left of the body.
However, it was obvious that the group of bears had been wiped out by these humans. Humans were very cunning animals. If they discovered the secret of the corpse, they would never let it go. Therefore, they had to find a way to drive them away or eliminate them as soon as possible.
Last night, when he ambushed that brawny man, he almost thought that he had succeeded. He did not expect that person's intuition to be so sharp that he actually dodged that fatal blow. However, it was obvious that the person was injured and had no weapon. He was no longer a threat.
Thinking of the weapon, the Wolf King could not help but think of the spear that was shining with golden light. That kind of oppression made it very uncomfortable. Fortunately, that person suddenly left for some reason. Now, only a human holding a sword was left.
However, before the gun-wielding human left, he set up a few traps. Humans were very cunning. Although he had obtained a magical power and there were almost no traps that could hurt him, who knew if the cunning humans would have any special methods? Therefore, he had to think of a way.
Thinking of this, the Wolf King stood up and walked into the depths of the forest.
After a while, a group of rabbits rushed out of the forest and fled in the direction of the bear cave. A few rabbits ran to the front of the bear cave and triggered the mechanism, causing the sound of bells to ring.
Hearing the bell, Daley immediately jumped up. Michael, who did not dare to sleep too deeply, also woke up. He immediately took out two ribs from his pocket, and the tips of the ribs lit up with a golden light.
"It's a rabbit."
Daley looked through the gap.
"There are many rabbits. They were obviously driven here. That wolf doesn't seem stupid.”
Michael muttered gloomily when he saw the situation outside.
"Beasts that can evolve are not stupid.”
Daley said helplessly.
"Looks like we have to guard against its sudden attack.”
The wolf king in the distance did not attack immediately after seeing that the trap was destroyed. Instead, it continued to lie on the ground quietly and looked at the blocked bear cave.
