“Awwo…”
Just as the group had finished reviewing their attributes and were filled with questions, a sudden, piercing howl echoed from a distant hillside, followed by a series of wolf howls!
Wood's eyes lit up; he had long wanted to witness the prowess of werewolves. He immediately spoke up, “Time is running out. Let's introduce ourselves—our names, professions, and areas of expertise. You have three minutes!”
“I’m Wen Changqing, a Taoist priest with a beginner-level Yin-Yang Eye.” Wen Changqing was no fool; he knew better than to reveal all his cards at this moment.
As soon as he spoke, the expressions of the others grew serious, especially Wood, whose surprise was palpable. “Good, good! As long as you can pass this initial trial, your future will be limitless!”
“I’m Liu Changshan, a martial artist specializing in Bajiquan.”
“I’m Zhao Qi, also a martial artist, specializing in Thunderous Hand.”
“I’m Wu Lao Liu, another martial artist, specializing in Iron Sand Palm.”
“Holy crap!” Wood could no longer remain calm. He jumped to his feet, eyes wide as he looked around in disbelief. “A Taoist priest and three martial artists? This is… this is…”
At his words, the four exchanged glances, their wariness towards each other diminishing slightly.
“Um, may I ask…” Wen Changqing turned to the figure lurking in the shadows, barely visible. His heart stirred as he asked, “What do we call you, brother? After all, we’re about to start our mission…”
“Ye Kai!”
Upon hearing that name, even Wood let out a slight sigh of relief. Why were all these newcomers so formidable?!
The four newcomers were manageable; he could handle them without much trouble.
But the one behind him was a different story!
"Focus, they're coming!" Ye Kai thought to himself, stifling a laugh as the wolf pack indeed approached.
In truth, Ye Kai had already gathered extensive knowledge about these individuals. Wu Lao Liu appeared frail and thin, an old man in his fifties with hardly any flesh on his bones. However, underestimating him would lead to a gruesome end.
His Iron Sand Palm technique had reached an extremely high level; he could split a thick slab of bluestone in half with a single strike.
Liu Changshan was lean but brimming with vitality. He stood like a soldier, and a distinctive scar marked his left cheek, making him easy to recognize.
Zhao Qi was stout, sporting a slightly protruding belly, and wore a friendly smile reminiscent of a local tycoon. Yet this fellow was no slouch when it came to skills.
If the three of them fought together, it would be hard to predict who would come out on top.
Wen Changqing was the one Ye Kai valued the most. If news of his possession of the True Eye of Breaking Illusions reached certain cultivation sects, they would undoubtedly go to great lengths to bring him back.
This was one of the most unique cultivation talents.
However, at that moment, everyone's expression changed as they anxiously gazed toward the dark hillside.
Under the dim light of the half-moon, shadows suddenly leaped down from the distant mountain peak. Given the current world they were in and the recent howls of wolves, it wasn't hard to guess what was approaching.
"What should we do? Is that a werewolf?" The one who was most terrified here was definitely Wen Changqing. Although he had been mentally prepared, everything about him was reflected in those eyes.
But the werewolves in this world, especially the ones now, were a pack of true beasts, devoid of any rationality.
"Stay here and don't move!"
Ye Kai was also curious about just how powerful the werewolves in this world really were. After throwing out that line, he instantly vanished from his spot.
To the others, Ye Kai seemed like a ghost, disappearing in the blink of an eye and reappearing dozens of meters away.
Querying target information!
Soon, a stream of data appeared in his mind.
"Mutated Prairie Werewolf: Height two meters, weight 85 kilograms."
"Base attributes: Strength 10 points."
"Agility: 1 point."
"Intelligence: 0 points."
"Stamina: 10 points."
"Spirit: 6 points."
Skill: Bite Lv: The Savage Prairie Werewolf possesses sharp fangs and claws, inflicting lethal bleeding damage when it Bites its target. This bleeding damage reduces the effectiveness of ordinary healing methods.
Rabies lv1: These mutated Savage Prairie Werewolves carry a virus within them, which has a certain chance to infect the target with Rabies upon attack. This damage takes priority.
...
The Savage Prairie Werewolves exhibit tremendous explosive power, leaving craters in the grass beneath their feet, and their Speed is astonishing. I recall that in the Original Work, they could keep up with galloping horses.
"Let's give it a try!"
Ye Kai surged in size once more, shaking his hands as two silent, arc-shaped blades of light appeared instantly, slicing a drooling werewolf into three pieces.
"Notification: You have made a fatal attack—critical damage! Your attack has inflicted lethal damage on the target, triggering a death effect! The target is dead!"
No statistical data appeared; it seemed this strike had exceeded what this Alpha Wolf could endure.
"Then let's try again." With a swift movement, he dodged the claws of two Alpha Wolves, slipping to the left side of one and swiftly slashing its throat.
"Notification: You have made a fatal attack—critical damage! Your attack has inflicted lethal damage on the target, triggering a death effect! The target is dead!"
Furrowing his brow, Ye Kai moved like a wisp of smoke, weaving through the pack of wolves while occasionally unleashing Blood Arrows into the air.
It was no surprise that they were Dark Species. Although they were far inferior to the Ice Lanster's Snow Wolf Warriors, their super healing ability was impressive. He had already tested the capabilities of these werewolves.
If it were just three or five wounds, they wouldn't care at all; they could heal in just two or three minutes.
The so-called fatal attacks, critical damage, referred to strikes aimed at vital points that caused certain death or limb loss.
Raising an eyebrow, he noticed that Wood was already approaching with his people. After a moment of thought, he decided against it; killing these creatures wouldn't yield many Evolution Points, and it would be more beneficial to return a favor instead.
“Puff puff puff…”
In the blink of an eye, aside from the six that had died during the experiment, the remaining ten Alpha Wolves lay with broken limbs, their foul black blood splattered everywhere. The scene made those who arrived feel a chill run down their spines.
Ye Kai stepped silently through the chaos of flesh and blood, softly saying, “Two heads per person, kill!”
“Awrooo…”
The mournful howls of the wolves finally erupted, startling everyone awake. It was only then that they realized they had unknowingly been affected mentally, causing their expressions to change dramatically.
“Alright! Thank you, brother! This is Evolution Points we’re talking about!”
Wood was the first to act, producing a silver-white pistol. After two shots rang out, two Alpha Wolves had their brains splattered, completely exploding.
Wen Changqing and the others exchanged glances but ultimately couldn't hold back. Especially the three martial artists; without hesitation, they struck decisively—one palm for each—shattering the werewolves' skulls in the same manner.
“Pfft!!!”
Ye Kai looked at Wen Changqing, whose face had turned pale and whose long sword trembled slightly in his hand. He couldn't help but nod and said, “It's just the first time; you'll get used to it after killing a few more!”
“Uh!”
The other few people also looked at him with some surprise.
“I don't know what you all think about this world, about ‘the upper level,’ but I find this world quite interesting. We've already encountered a Low-Level Werewolf, and perhaps we'll run into vampires next. So what comes after that...”
Ye Kai shook his hands, causing the dagger to vanish, then removed his mask. After tidying himself up a bit, he instantly looked as if he had changed into a different outfit. Seeing the astonished expressions on the faces of the others, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, “If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Who knows, we might end up being on the same team later; it's good to get familiar with each other.”
“Are you Brother Ye?” Wen Changqing exclaimed.
“You know each other?”
“From the same place?”
“…”
