Live Strong in the Wilderness-Chapter 340: Seamless Cooperation

Everyone immediately stopped and drew their weapons.

"Stay close to me, form a triangle." Xu Yi said, glancing around to see if there were only these four.

Lu Ke and Zhou Mo attacked first, both using crossbows, capable of long-distance attacks.

Two crossbow arrows shot out, piercing the skin of these Desert Scale Wolves.

Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief; he was worried that the crossbow couldn’t break through the scales of these Desert Scale Wolves, which would be very troublesome.

As the two arrows were shot, the four Desert Scale Wolves also charged.

Zhou Chun’s weapon was a large iron spear, which he had likely modified himself. The spear was quite suitable for dealing with beasts. However, now their spear handles were not long, only about a meter.

Beyond this length, it couldn’t fit into the Star Chart’s Storage Space.

Xu Yi was the first to strike because a Desert Scale Wolf was lunging directly at him.

Xu Yi swung his knife, hitting the Desert Scale Wolf’s mouth.

It didn’t cut through, but it knocked it away.

Zhou Chun’s iron spear thrust forward, stabbing a Desert Scale Wolf’s shoulder.

His considerable strength, combined with the speed of the Desert Scale Wolf’s impact, allowed Zhou Chun to successfully embed his iron spear into its shoulder, pinning it a meter away.

The Desert Scale Wolf kept biting the spear handle, and Zhou Mo seized the opportunity to shoot a crossbow arrow into the Desert Scale Wolf’s mouth.

Another Desert Scale Wolf pounced on Lu Ke, but Cheng Jie decisively struck, swinging her axe down at the Desert Scale Wolf’s head.

The axe couldn’t break its head, but it slammed its head to the ground, causing its body to lose balance and crash forward.

At this point, Lu Ke decisively shot a crossbow arrow into the Desert Scale Wolf’s neck, piercing right through it.

The last one lunged at Liu Li.

However, Xu Yi acted, grabbing the Desert Scale Wolf’s tail, swinging his knife and slicing its lower back. Simultaneously, Liu Li’s knife also swung out, striking towards the Desert Scale Wolf’s neck.

This all happened within less than a minute.

"That was incredible; everyone’s reaction time is so fast."

"Not bad, looks like Xu Yi’s teammates are pretty good too, their reaction time is impressive. Strength can be gradually improved, but reaction time and awareness can’t."

"We never practiced before, but we could work together like this on the first attempt, definitely impressive."

"I was worried earlier that someone might get hurt, even be eliminated, but the performance was pretty good."

"You’re too optimistic; this is just the beginning."

"These animals’ defense power is too abnormal, completely defying biology!"

"Luckily, they don’t have firearms, otherwise, we’d be questioning our existence."

"Watch out." Lu Ke moved to Xu Yi’s position, thrusting his short spear forward. The Desert Scale Wolf Xu Yi previously knocked away was coming again, attempting to bite his lower back.

"You have to use stabbing; only this way can you break through their defenses." Xu Yi said as his knife jabbed into the Desert Scale Wolf’s neck, forcefully driving it into the ground, pinning it there.

"Hold it down." Xu Yi shouted to Liu Li.

Liu Li dropped her knife, going up to grab Xu Yi’s knife, pinning the Desert Scale Wolf down.

Then, Xu Yi drew his dagger, frantically stabbing toward the Desert Scale Wolf’s chest.

Only when the blood splattered did Xu Yi stop.

Cheng Jie held her axe handle, pressing it against one Desert Scale Wolf’s mouth, with her knee against its neck.

This allowed Lu Ke to free his hands to attack the Desert Scale Wolf attempting to bite Xu Yi.

Xu Yi, splattered with blood, lunged towards the one Cheng Jie was holding down, and in the same manner, stabbed its heart, ending its life.

The one Zhou Chun and Zhou Mo dealt with already had four crossbow arrows on it, along with three bloody holes stabbed by Zhou Chun, posing little threat now. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The Desert Scale Wolf stabbed by Lu Ke realized things weren’t good and turned to flee.

"You guys stay, I’ll go finish it off." Xu Yi grabbed his knife and chased after it.

Who knows if it has other companions; if it calls them over, then everyone would be in danger. So, it’s best to finish it off.

"No need to help?" Cheng Jie glanced at Lu Ke, worry evident in her voice.

"No need, it’s just one, Xu Yi can handle it." Lu Ke replied, having confidence in Xu Yi’s strength.

The beasts here may have abnormal defense, but Xu Yi is also very strong.

The giant lizard was dealt with, and these Desert Scale Wolves are not large, similar in size to ordinary rural dogs.

With just one, it’s not a match for Xu Yi.

Moreover, only Xu Yi has the speed to catch up, others attempting to follow wouldn’t achieve much.

At this point, it’s better to finish off the remaining one.

So, after Lu Ke answered, he thrust his short spear towards the last Desert Scale Wolf.

Four Desert Scale Wolves, leaving behind three carcasses.

The remaining one ran three hundred meters, and Xu Yi caught up.

During the chase, Xu Yi used the Speed Doubling Skills.

Just before catching it, he used Binding Skills.

As Xu Yi used Binding Skills, his knife slashed towards the Desert Scale Wolf’s head.

Then Xu Yi discovered the Desert Scale Wolf was knocked senseless by him, lying motionless on the ground.

Xu Yi drew his dagger, preparing to stab the Desert Scale Wolf to death.

But in the end, he withdrew his dagger, took a hemp rope from his Storage Space and tied up the Desert Scale Wolf’s muzzle.

He thought, if he could figure out why these beasts had such incredible defense, maybe he’d find a way to deal with them. Then entering the jungle might be easier.

So, he carried the Desert Scale Wolf back.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief seeing Xu Yi carrying the Desert Scale Wolf back.

"Didn’t expect there really to be scale-covered wolves. The animals on this planet are truly amazing." Zhou Mo squatted down, touching the Desert Scale Wolf’s corpse.

He’d thought before, with Black Scale Lions and Scale Leopards, maybe there would also be Scale Wolves?

Turns out, he didn’t encounter them on that island, but did in the desert.

"It’s their defense power that’s too abnormal; axes can’t even cut through." Cheng Jie complained; she had just tried her axe, clearly very sharp.

"The last time we encountered a giant lizard, it was the same, couldn’t cut through. Only very sharp weapons can pierce through, really frustrating. Perhaps that’s the characteristic of this planet’s beasts." Lu Ke said with a frown; this characteristic is not good news for them.
