Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 217: Counterattack Begins

The wolf pack, Xu Yi and Lu Ke were surrounded by the wolf pack.

Xu Yi glanced around and found about ten wild wolves closing in on them. The key point is, there are still a dozen or so watching from the outside, not joining the action yet.

Without a word, Xu Yi drew his bow and aimed at the one Lu Ke had shot.

Eliminating one now means one less threat.

Then, Xu Yi slung the hunting bow on his own body and dragged over a Raccoon Monkey’s corpse.

"Follow me," Xu Yi said, dragging the Raccoon Monkey’s body with one hand and holding a machete with the other.

Breakthrough, he and Lu Ke must break through.

There are enough Raccoon Monkey corpses here to keep them fed. Their target is the Raccoon Monkey’s corpses, and they’re only here for that.

Otherwise, the Wolf King wouldn’t have only allowed half the wild wolves to attack Xu Yi and Lu Ke.

Xu Yi charged toward the place with the fewest wolves, with Lu Ke following closely.

The trees here are too thick to climb up quickly. Otherwise, climbing a tree would be a more reliable method; with one person having a hunting bow and the other a crossbow arrow, they could easily shoot the wolf pack from the air.

After all, if they ran out of arrows, they could temporarily cut branches to sharpen them.

"It’s over, Xu Yi and Lu Ke are going to be eliminated."

"There seem to be twenty or thirty wolves, even though only ten are attacking, they still can’t escape!"

"I really had high hopes for them, didn’t expect they couldn’t even last a hundred days."

"If they hadn’t delayed there, they would be safe by now."

"Yeah, Lu Ke already reminded Xu Yi to leave early, and he didn’t. Now they’re in trouble, aren’t they?"

"Come on, so many Raccoon Monkeys were killed, and even the Flying Giant Beast was taken down. Was Xu Yi wrong to find out why?"

"Isn’t the fiercest beast that killed the Raccoon Monkeys the scariest? If the wolf pack encounters it, they’ll be wiped out too, right?"

"We just don’t know if that fierce beast is nearby. If it is, both the wolf pack and Xu Yi’s group will die."

"Breaking through, if only it were that easy to break through."

As the audience was heatedly discussing, Xu Yi was already in front of a wild wolf.

He raised his knife and chopped down.

With a single strike, Xu Yi chopped off the wolf’s mouth.

"Get out, run," Xu Yi said, then threw the Raccoon Monkey’s body at the wolves pouncing in from the side.

Lu Ke took the opportunity to rush to the side and she knew if she was slow, Xu Yi’s efforts would be in vain.

In any case, she ran, running desperately.

This way, she wouldn’t be a burden to Xu Yi.

As Lu Ke ran, the wolf pack immediately lunged at them.

Xu Yi turned and chased after her; a wolf was very close behind Lu Ke.

"Quick, don’t stop, just run," Xu Yi said, then suddenly accelerated, charging at the wolf trying to bite Lu Ke.

As for the ones behind him, he had no time to care.

The single word, run.

If they could escape, they would win.

"Copper head, iron bones, tofu waist," that’s how you describe wolf-like creatures.

After Xu Yi approached, he swung his knife at the wolf’s waist.

The knife felt no resistance, slicing through directly.

The wolf was cut in two by Xu Yi.

The cost was the machete began absorbing blood again.

"Killed a wild wolf, gained 5 points."

Hearing this voice, Xu Yi turned to look back.

Those wild wolves paused for a moment and glanced at their two-part friend.

"Wow, awesome, did he really just rush out?"

"This knife... this must be against the rules, I need to complain about Xu Yi cheating. How can only Xu Yi have one, every team needs one!"

"Slicing a wild wolf in two with one strike, certainly exceptional. But Xu Yi’s strength is incredible; it’s not just about the knife."

"Anyway, they’ve broken out; the wolf pack is still chasing, but seeing their bisected companion, they obviously slowed down."

"Chase, chase, chase. Once your stamina depletes, it’ll be your doom. When Xu Yi looked back just now, that smile was telling."

"Only 8 behind, Xu Yi might really counterattack."

"Counterattack, that’s a joke, escaping alive would be enough. Counterattack, still dreaming?"

"Not necessarily. If they don’t take the opportunity to kill these 8 now, it will be harder in the future. If it were me, killing one means one less in the pack, reducing future threats."

"Their speed is so fast, they can actually keep up with the wolves."

"Now it’s a battle of endurance."

Suddenly, Lu Ke jumped ahead and grabbed a tree vine as thick as her arm, climbing up it.

"Xu Yi, here." Lu Ke shouted, then saw the situation behind; eight wild wolves were closely chasing Xu Yi, five or six meters away.

"Climb higher, don’t worry about me," Xu Yi shouted and then ran forward, passing beneath Lu Ke.

Then Lu Ke saw Xu Yi circling back around a tree, charging at another wolf, raising his machete to slash at its waist.

One strike, no suspense.

Xu Yi’s actions were clean and efficient, after striking, he darted away to the side.

"Xu Yi..." Lu Ke didn’t expect Xu Yi to start counter-killing.

The wolf pack also didn’t expect Xu Yi to strike back so suddenly.

However, it made them even crazier, desperately pursuing Xu Yi.

After a while, Xu Yi circled back again.

Lu Ke grabbed the tree vine with one hand, holding a short crossbow with the other. She originally planned to jump down and catch up with Xu Yi.

She felt she couldn’t let Xu Yi take risks alone; if Xu Yi could counter-kill, so could she.

But unexpectedly, Xu Yi circled back again.

An arrow shot out, hitting a wild wolf’s lower back directly.

Then Xu Yi darted underneath again. The wolf that was hit was spinning in place, trying to pull out the short arrow stuck in its body.

Lu Ke leaped down, quickly pulled out a short arrow, loaded it onto the crossbow, and aimed at the wolf, firing another arrow.

The wolf let out a miserable cry, glaring at Lu Ke, then charged at her.

Lu Ke drew her dagger and charged as well.

After being hit with two arrows, the wolf’s speed significantly slowed.

As it was about to reach her, the wolf lunged at Lu Ke, but missed.

Lu Ke grabbed its scruff and plunged the dagger into its throat, slashing backwards.

After completing her motion, Lu Ke immediately released and retreated.

The wolf twisted back to bite, but Lu Ke had already stepped back.

The wolf wobbled twice, then lunged at Lu Ke.

After running a few steps, it collapsed.

"Killed a wild wolf, gained 5 points."

Hearing the prompt, Lu Ke couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Hearing a sound, she immediately hid behind a tree, ready to take action again.
