Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 888 - 831: Disaster Escalates

Mountain Eagle is really bored…

The wolf threat that worries Razer is actually just a game for him!

As long as the wolf pack doesn't sneak in or break down doors, or carry explosives to launch a desperate attack, the people in the cabin are almost free of danger.

The danger of the wolf pack lies in 'blockade' and 'destruction'!

As long as they are active in the village, the villagers have no way to leave their houses.

As time goes by, with supplies inside the houses depleting, the people inside will eventually have to come out to chop wood and fetch water, and that is the most dangerous time.

The harsh natural environment can make people trapped inside anxious because the wolf pack will try to destroy their storage rooms and eat the food they have prepared over the past few months…

The Inuit do not have refrigerators. Since summer, they have been preparing food continuously, smoke fish, and smoked venison as their primary food sources.

But these things cannot be stored indoors in winter, because the indoor temperature will accelerate food spoilage.

Traditional Inuit build storerooms using wood and oilcloth to preserve food with external temperatures.

Once the storeroom is destroyed by the wolf pack, and the food inside is eaten, the villagers' situation will become very bad.

This is the reason why Wuya wanted to distribute wolf meat to the villagers in advance; once the wolf pack enters the village it will certainly lead to some families' food reserves being eaten…

And while Mountain Eagle was enduring the complaints from the ladies in the cabin, patiently guiding a few children in setting up a wolf-skinning line, a food warehouse in the village was breached…

A few wild wolves broke through the oilcloth amidst a villager's angry roars, and charged into a simple A-frame wooden warehouse, starting to drag a large amount of smoked fish outside to eat.

Due to the angle, the unlucky villager was unable to shoot the wolf pack from inside the house, and no matter how much he tried to scare them with gunshots, the greedy wolves simply ignored him…

Under different circumstances, that villager would have fought desperately, but this time Razer stopped them from doing so.

Heading out at night to face the frenzied wolf pack, these Inuit would lose even with guns in hand!

The old guy has exceptional individual capabilities, yet this time he didn't lead the charge, but instead tried to organize the villagers via radio to keep calm.

If the goods are eaten, it's fine; if something happens to a person, then that's a joke!

The village quickly calmed down under Razer's scolding, and aside from the occasional loud gunshots coming from the second floor of the small building where Mountain Eagle and his group were, the rest of the place was quiet.

While organizing a wolf-skinning line in the cabin, Mountain Eagle also started heating water at the back, namely the east side…

As buckets of snow water were heated, Mountain Eagle used a pump to draw the hot water into a water tank…

Once the water supply for handwashing and the kitchen was secured, Xiao Wan, who had some mild hygiene OCD, relaxed a little, and planned a fixed spot near the back door on the first floor for the 'production line' area.

To be honest, wolf skinning is a technical job, and even though these gray wolves just died and their bodies haven't rigorously stiffened yet, it's not easy to skin them perfectly.

Ultimately, to preserve the children's achievements, Tessa, as the final beneficiary of the wolf skins, reluctantly pulled an unwilling Selena to join them.

But soon Tessa found a bit of fun…

Every time she saw Xiao Wan incessantly scrubbing the blood and grease off the floor, she got a mischievous thrill.

Sometimes, she couldn't help but pinch Yue Yi's little face, leaving a bloody handprint on it…

Whenever Xiao Wan couldn't help but rush over to wipe Yue Yi's face clean, Tessa would let out a cheerful laugh.

The upstairs sniper rifle would fire twice every few minutes to scare the wolf pack in the woods to the east.

After listening for some time, Mountain Eagle couldn't help but say over the radio, "Easy on it!

The bullets you've fired cost more than the lives of these wolves, yet you haven't hit many so far…"

Mountain Eagle's complaint stressed Griffin on the second floor. She paused, sounding a bit aggrieved, "Boss, the wolf pack activities are very frequent on the east side; we need to drive them deeper into the woods to give us ample reaction time.

Otherwise, once they get close to us, our shooting range might not suffice!"

Mountain Eagle doesn't sound like he's worried about money. He said helplessly, "Then stop using the large-caliber bullets, switch to 7.62 mm bullets. We can drag the hit wolves back to provide extra meals for the villagers…"

As Mountain Eagle sneakily glanced at Xiao Wan who had come out to trash the garbage, he bent down and threw a shovel of snow into the heated drum. Then he tossed the hind legs of four wild wolves into a big basin and added cold water to soak them.

Seeing Mountain Eagle pretending not to notice her, Xiao Wan grumpily tossed a snowball at his head, snorted angrily, and while turning back inside, she said, "Just do as you please, let your son work at the meatpacking plant in the future…"

Mountain Eagle dared not retort, muttering, "The son won't just skin wolves; isn't he also responsible for treating Balang's injuries?

Besides, having such skills, being a responsible butcher or vet isn't too bad!"

Xiao Wan pushed open the back door, and what greeted her sight was a mini-slaughterhouse scene. Seeing her son busily working front and back, she couldn't help but sigh as she passed Tessa, her steps halted for a moment…

"Don't stink up the place or my son, if I'm upset, you definitely won't have a good time either..."

Tessa was startled for a moment, just about to showcase her green tea flair when she saw Luna holding a skinned wolf's head close to her cheek...

The lifeless wolf eyes scared Tessa, nearly causing her to fall into the blood-soaked ground.

Watching Luna giggle and toss the wolf head away, then run off to flaunt to Xiao Wan, who ended up dragging her by the neck to the washroom because of her hygiene obsession...

Tessa, without feeling pleased, pinched Yue Yi on the butt as he rubbed it and complained to her, saying she was lazy at work. She couldn't help but grab this boy's head and give him a few playful kisses...

Mountain Eagle stealthily peeked in to see Tessa kneading her son, and said humorously, "Get to work; these wolf skins are all prepared for you..."

Tessa let go of Yue Yi and stuck out her tongue playfully at Mountain Eagle, saying, "What do I need so many wolf skins for? In Thailand, they are completely useless..."

Mountain Eagle, hearing this, replied dismissively, "You're silly, it's precisely because they're useless in Thailand that these are rare resources there.

Get a few designers to brainstorm; these wolf skins that you 'personally hunted' can be processed into decorations and make great gifts.

Wearing furs in Thailand is something only fools do, but aren't those wolf teeth excellent for warding off evil?

Doesn't your family have some monk acquaintances?

Have those North American gray wolf teeth blessed at a temple, and even as gifts for the King they won't lose face."

Upon hearing this, and seeing Mountain Eagle consider this for her, Tessa joyfully stood up, intending to express her affection, but young and busy Angel tripped her up, nearly making her fall...

Seeing Angel's apologetic yet insincere expression, Tessa, not in good humor, kicked Mountain Eagle's leg, saying, "These kids are all on your wife's side, aren't I nice enough to them?"

Mountain Eagle supported the messy Tessa, guiding her indoors, and said helplessly, "How long have you known them?

Get to work quickly, later I'll make a special wolf meat feast for the night snack, ensuring you get the first taste!"

With that, Mountain Eagle tiptoed into the house, just about to prepare some spices when his radio crackled...

Razer's somewhat hoarse voice came through, saying, "Mountain Eagle, Kahong and the others have found that guy's family..."

Mountain Eagle paused and said, "What's wrong? Isn't that good news?"

Razer, somewhat weary, replied, "The good news is that the family is still alive; the bad news is that Kahong and the others were tricked...

Kerry Cantona's wife only has 300,000 Euros in cash!

The worse news is that there's a wolf pack nearby their Hunter's Lodge, and Kahong and the others are trapped there."

Mountain Eagle consoled, "300,000 isn't a small amount. For Kahong and them to run this trip, not only can they save a few lives, but they can also earn 300,000 Euros as a reward, which is considered a high-quality mission in the mercenary industry.

The scale of the wolf pack there shouldn't be very large; even if Kahong and the others can't bring people out, surviving there should be doable, right?"

Razer, helpless, said, "On the way there, they hunted two gray wolves and a moose, they're not going to starve.

However, the wolf pack near the Hunter's Lodge isn't large, but there are several young children inside. Only with Kahong and a few others, if no one comes to assist them out of the mountains, they definitely won't be able to make it."

Razer continued with a lowered tone of voice, "Mountain Eagle, the scale of the wolf disaster is bigger than I thought, and villages along the northern line of the Yukon River are almost all affected.

The state government just issued an alert, and the National Guard will be dispatched in three days to attempt to drive away the wolf packs with helicopters.

But as I understand them, it would take at least a week to organize this."

Mountain Eagle, after hearing this, was curious and asked, "How many wild wolves are in Alaska?

Most of the natives are hunters; ordinary people also have weapons...

Okay, having weapons at night may not be useful, but what's really going on?"

Razer replied sternly, "I don't know. The explanation from the state government is that the snow disaster has made it difficult for the wolf packs to find food, and a large number of wild wolves have crossed over from the Canadian border to Alaska.

We're not in a major disaster area here, yet the situation east of Fairbanks is more severe!

Several French immigrant families have already been confirmed missing…"

Mountain Eagle sighed slightly and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Razer, silent for a moment, said, "We need helicopter assistance to efficiently drive away the wolf packs during the day.

The large-scale movement of wolf packs will lead to the complete shutdown of winter hunting along the northern line of the Yukon River, and surrounding native village reserves are bound to run into shortages."

Mountain Eagle thought for a moment and said, "Brown Bear Camp has sufficient reserves; I might manage to resolve part of the helicopter and supplies, but is the situation really as bad as you say?

Is the state government really doing nothing?"
