Chapter 117 Sharp Fangs (part 1)
It was an hour later when Ling moved fast on the highway to PhoenixCity. The journey which would have taken him 10 minutes to complete had taken him an hour in order to escape the senses of the creatures hiding in the rubble. There were several times when he was almost found, but fortunately, he managed to avert the danger and eventually made it back home.
In the deep darkness of the night, Ling was overwhelmed with worries.
During the day, he had lost too much blood and lost consciousness. He didn"t know the result of the battle between Phoenix City and Fenrisulfr. However, even if Phoenix City eliminated those common Fenrisulfrwolves, the thought of the humanoid new life made him unable to relax. That werewolf was clearly as intelligent as human being. If the troops of Phoenix City failed to remove him, then with his genes as the blueprint, a new generation of Fenrisulfr would definitely be born in the wilderness.
G.o.d knows how many new life forms like this would be in the future. As these new generation of intelligent life forms become more and more numerous, the human superiority will be equalized. One could imagine that in order to compete for the scarce resources, the earth would fall into an endless war. In this war, humans were not necessarily the final winners.
On the highway, although Ling was full of worries, he did not slow down at all. After two hours of flying at a constant speed of one hundred kilometers per hour, Ling could see Phoenix City loom on the horizon.
However, at the same time he saw the city, he also saw a figure.
A figure with wild, red hair.
Red wolf!
Ling"s pupils contracted as he stopped in his way. At the same time, the revolver came to his right hand and leveled its muzzle at the bandit leader.
The wolf leaned against the engine, both hands on the handle of the metal hammer. The giant hammer hit the ground, supporting the red wolf as it blocked the only path Ling would take.
Of course, Ling did not know the reason why the red wolf appeared here at this moment was because of the white-head eagle. According to the secret agreement between the two, the white-head eagle would provide the red wolf Ling"s information, while the red wolf would be in charge of interception. As for Ranger himself, he would hide in the dark and wait for Ling to reveal a flaw. He would then reward Ling with a sniper bullet.
The white-head eagle and the red wolf arrived at Phoenix City in the morning. However, they received the news that Ling were travelling with the army to Mourin City to hunt the Fenrisulfr wolves. Although the white-head eagle sneaked into Morin City at the first possible moment, Ling had lost contact with the army after the appearance of the new wolf King. Even the white-head eagle was unable to know the exact information about Ling.
However, by monitoring the army, it was found out that Ling did not return to the city with the army. Thus, the white-head eagle was sure that Ling remained in Phoenix City for some reason. And the little girl with him was still in Phoenix City, it was impossible for Ling to leave. He would definitely return to Phoenix City, so the white-head eagle told the red wolf wait for Ling on the route Ling had to take between Morin Cityand Phoenix City.
It turned out that the white-head eagle"s judgment was correct. Upon seeing Ling, the red wolf revealed a heartfelt smile. He believed that Lingwould die in the wilderness tonight!
Seeing the red wolf, Ling frowned. When he was in t.i.tan City, the bandit wolf leader had intended to kill him. The enmity between Ling and the wolf bandits germinated when Ling broken into wolf cave alone to take Catherine away, but the encounter with the red wolf in t.i.tan City had only intensified the enmity. At that time, the wolf bandits were in a hurry to retreat, so there was no clear victor between the two.
Right now, the unfinished battle was about to continue.
Ling realized that he had underestimated the wolf bandits" obsession with hatred. It had to be said that the red wolf had chosen a good time. The redwolf was blocking the road, and behind him was Phoenix City. If Lingwanted to enter the city, he would have to try the red wolf"s hammer. Of course, he could just turn around and leave, but he didn"t believe that the red wolf would come alone. The other wolf bandits would definitely hide somewhere.
And within the 1,000km area, there weren"t any other ruins other than Morin. A vast expanse of plains meant that once Ling encountered wolfbandits, the only thing waiting for him was endless fighting or flight. Either way, the end result would be Ling"s death, let alone the fact that he wasn"t even half his normal state. Even in his best condition, he wouldn"t be able to break through the wolf bandits" encirclement on the plains.
Ling decided to brave the red wolf although it was undoubtedly the strongest link in the encirclement. However, as long as he broke through his interception, it would be definitely beyond the other wolves"expectations. Only by forcefully breaking through the red wolf would Ling have a chance of survival.
Without any hesitation, Ling suddenly sprinted towards the red wolf.
The red wolf was slightly surprised, but soon after, it started laughing loudly. Instead of retreating, Ling advanced to the red wolf"s satisfaction. The red wolf raised his hammer and shouted, "Ling, tonight will be the time of your death!"
Ling frowned again.
Although he and the wolf bandits had interacted with each other, they did not know the names of each other. However, Ling was not so well-known that he could be distinguished just by his appearance or figure. As the red wolf spoke out his name, it meant that other people or bases with ulterior motives would have disclosed his information to the bandit wolves. There was only one possibility left after eliminating all the impossible factors.
Parkland plutocrats!
It seemed unlikely that the big company would cooperate with the notorious wolf bandits, but there was no other possibility.
Ling did not stop in his thinking.
The distance between him and the red wolf was about five hundred meters. The distance was quickly reduced to four hundred meters as Ling moved in fast speed.
The revolver trembled slightly, and a violent tongue of fire spurted out from the muzzle of the rifle.
Ling fired and a bullet carrying over three thousand Joule"s kinetic energy shot towards the red wolf"s forehead!
However, a giant metal hammer blocked the s.p.a.ce between the two.
A burst of flames shot out from the hammer ear, and the red wolf also moved at the same time, .
The red wolf did not excel at speed, but it was still terrifyingly when he ran with his hammer lifted upside down. The giant hammer struck the ground, creating a series of sparks. In the red wolf"s shaking arms, the malevolent giant hammer was thrown at Ling.
Ling stopped, rolled, bounced up and rushed forward. In a series of dazzling tactical moves, the red wolf"s huge hammer smashed into the air, creating a shallow crater on the already fractured highway.
Three hundred meters.
Ling raised his pistol and fired several shots in quick succession, aimingat the head and chest of the red wolf.
The red wolf no longer had a giant hammer in its hand, but it was still fearless. The .50 warheads smashed into its b.l.o.o.d.y arms while the red wolf actually used both of its hands to protect the spots the bullet would land. The red wolf ignored his arms, which had been almost riddled with bullets. Gritting his teeth, he made a pulling motion with his right hand, causing the chain which was connected with the hammer and attached to his arm to immediately straighten up.
Immediately, an evil wind blew behind Ling. Ling didn"t have to turn his head as he knew that the red wolf had pulled back the giant hammer through the chain and it was smas.h.i.+ng towards him.
At this time, the distance between the two of them was two hundred meters!
