Confess System: Picking Up Girls After Girls, Try Not to Get Killed!-Chapter 295 Between Life and Death
Chapter 295 Between Life and Death
Without hesitation, the Frost Giant Wolf dispelled its ice crystal armor, regaining its agility, and charged at the human youth with full force!
Seeing this, the youth immediately fled in a zigzag pattern towards open ground, but it didn't affect the Frost Giant Wolf's pursuit.
The wolf unleashed its Ice Breath once more, freezing the ground and blocking the youth's zigzag path, forcing him to run to one side.
Then, the Frost Giant Wolf leaped high and launched a horizontal Ice Breath, further reducing the youth's maneuvering space by half!
At this moment, if the youth could jump or climb over the three-meter-high frozen path, the Frost Giant Wolf wouldn't miss the opportunity to attack the moving target.
However, if the human chose to continue fighting in the confined space, it would play right into the Frost Giant Wolf's hands!
.
The situation gradually shifted in favor of the Frost Giant Wolf, as it ferociously chased the human, steadily closing the distance between them.
Thanks to its earlier blockade of the ground, it soon cornered the youth, who once again used his teleportation trick to escape through the frozen path to the other side.
The Frost Giant Wolf wasn't surprised, as it was prepared for this. It immediately leaped into the air, using its aerial view to locate the youth who had teleported to the other side of the frozen path, and quickly pursued him.
Yes, the moment the youth used his teleportation was precisely the opportunity the Frost Giant Wolf had been waiting for!
During their previous exchanges, the Frost Giant Wolf had confirmed that the youth's teleportation skill couldn't be used consecutively.
Therefore, whether it was teleportation or precognition, the Frost Giant Wolf's goal was to exhaust the youth's "evasion cards" and seize the moment when he was waiting for his cooldown to deliver a devastating blow!
In the blink of an eye, the Frost Giant Wolf closed in on the youth, who swung his black sword and released the blue flame steed once more.
However, this move was also within the Frost Giant Wolf's expectations. It promptly reactivated its "Frost Protection: Ice Crystal Armor" and charged straight through the blue flames, finally bringing the youth within its attack range!
At this moment, the youth was surrounded by rock walls and the frozen path, with the Frost Giant Wolf's massive body blocking his escape.
—(Taste my wrath, despicable human!)
The Frost Giant Wolf's eyes glowed with a sinister blue light as the cold air around it formed dozens of ice thorns, bristling with spikes.
"Human, this is your last chance to beg for mercy," the Frost Giant Wolf said, looking down at the youth, hoping to intimidate him into handing over the antidote.
Once it had the antidote, it could kill the youth without any concerns.
"Hmm? If I beg for mercy, will you spare my life?" The youth's eyes lit up, seemingly considering the idea.
The Frost Giant Wolf was initially pleased, but quickly realized something was off.
The youth wasn't genuinely considering it; he was stalling for time, waiting for his teleportation cooldown!
"You won't escape! Ice Thorn Storm!"
As the Frost Giant Wolf shouted the name of its fourth-tier skill, the ice thorns suspended in the air rained down, covering a radius of ten meters centered on the wolf.
However, just as the Frost Giant Wolf launched its attack, the youth once again vanished using his teleportation, leaving the wolf dumbfounded.
—(Impossible!)
—(The cooldown couldn't be that short!)
After a brief moment of astonishment, the Frost Giant Wolf leaped up to locate the youth's position and immediately pursued him.
Although its initial attack missed, the situation was not dire, for the fourth-tier skill "Ice Thorn Storm" was not a one-time assault, but rather a continuous ability.
As the Frost Giant Wolf gradually closed in on the youth, the incessantly forming and falling ice thorns automatically locked onto the youth's position, rapidly plummeting and swooping towards him.
Even as the youth evaded the onslaught through constant positional changes, the ice thorns would split and ricochet into smaller ice thorns upon impact with the ground, initiating a second wave of attack.
With the increasing number of ice thorns landing, the youth's space to dodge diminished, and the Frost Giant Wolf, catching up to the youth, brandished its sharp claws, joining the offensive!
Under such a relentless and concentrated barrage, even a youth with exceptional predictive abilities would soon find themselves in an inescapable predicament.
— (Now is the time!)
As the youth leaped to avoid an ice thorn, the Frost Giant Wolf seized the opportunity to swipe its claw! The youth had no way to evade this strike in mid-air!
However, just as the Frost Giant Wolf's claw was less than three meters from the youth, two black figures, which had appeared out of nowhere, suddenly sprang forth, placing themselves between the youth and the Frost Giant Wolf's claw, using their bodies to mitigate the impact of the strike!
— (No way!)
It was too late to retract or change direction; the Frost Giant Wolf had no choice but to exert its full strength in this swipe, hoping to penetrate the force and inflict severe damage upon the youth.
After its attack connected, the youth and the two black figures were sent flying, landing in the distance.
.
For the last strike, the Frost Giant Wolf had landed a palpable hit; the sensation in its claws could not lie.
Yet, it dared not let down its guard, immediately pursuing the direction where the human youth had fallen.
The two black figures that had shielded the young human from harm had vanished, leaving only the youth struggling to stand on the ground.
The Frost Giant Wolf could see that the youth was severely injured; agile beings were often fragile.
Its next move was to pin the youth down before he could recover, force him to hand over the antidote, and put an end to this farce.
However, before it could pin down the youth, the Frost Giant Wolf suddenly lost its footing and fell to the ground.
— (What... is happening...?)
— (Could it be...?)
Struggling to stand, the wolf found its body unresponsive. Not only had it lost strength in its legs, but the heat sustaining its life was rapidly dissipating.
The creature, which should have thrived in the cold, now feared the chill due to the loss of its life energy.
"Curse... you..."
The Frost Giant Wolf could barely speak. It knew it had lost, defeated in this race against time.
Before it could triumph over the human, the poison invading its body had conquered it first.
Filled with immense regret, the Frost Giant Wolf thought that if it had not underestimated its opponent and used its full strength from the beginning, the human could never have been a match for it.
But defeat was defeat, and in a life-or-death battle, the only fate awaiting the loser was death.
"Young human... what is... your… name?"
In the final minutes of its life, the Frost Giant Wolf's vision had gone dark.
Before dying, it wanted to know the name of the one who had bested it.
"My name is Felix. If there's a next life, come seek your revenge, Zane."

After the Frost Giant Wolf Zane's death, the temperature within the cave began to rise slowly.
Tyler used the wolf's fur and fat to start a fire for warmth, leisurely waiting for the ice on the treasure chamber door to melt.
