MTL - Card Room-Chapter 558
Chapter 558, Missing Teammate
For wolves that have lived in the desert for a long time, in order to adapt to the desert's arid and hot environment, their bodies will undergo partial mutations. For example, desert wolves have larger ears than other types of wolves, which facilitate heat dissipation and have a sharper hearing. They are usually smaller in size, have strong backs and limbs, have higher mobility, and run at amazing speeds.
At the same time, due to the lack of resources in the desert, they have also evolved extremely strong hunger tolerance. Without food, they can even eat nothing for half a month without starving to death.
Desert wolves are often active at night. Hearing Chu Huaying said that there were wolves in the distance, Xiao Lou immediately retreated to her side vigilantly, and asked in a low voice, "Huaying, can you tell how many wolves are between us?"
Chu Huaying just put her ear on the sand and listened carefully. She frowned and said, "The number is not clear. I only heard the howling of wolves calling their companions, and the footsteps of the wolves running. The distance... About 3 kilometers away, my hearing is strengthened and I can hear sounds as far as 3 kilometers away."
3 kilometers, for extremely fast wolves, it only takes a minute to reach.
Xiao Lou couldn't help feeling a little nervous. He looked around, the vast desert, they had nowhere to hide, and the setting of a card to be invalidated once used it made him dare not easily use Tao Yuanming's life-saving cards at critical moments.
Brother Nine and Tang Ci went to find Oasis, Yu Hanjiang had a high fever, and Long Sen was unconscious. At present, only six people, Xiao Lou, Chu Huaying, Qu Wanyue, Gui Yuanzhang, Shao Qingge, and Ye Qi, were able to fight.
Xiao Lou took a deep breath and said calmly, "I don’t know how many wolves there are. If the number of wolves is less than 100, the six of us can barely solve them, but if there are too many to deal with, we have to find a way as soon as possible. Escape."
Ye Qi worried, "Can we run through the wolves just by using the displacement cards? The wolves can run for a long time, but we don't have the physical strength to consume them."
Gui Yuanzhang suggested, "Wolves are usually afraid of fire. Would you like to try to surround our temporary camp with flames?"
Xiao Lou smiled bitterly and shook his head, "We have no fuel."
Bai Juyi was only responsible for lighting a small area of flames, no extra charcoal. The charcoal fire that Xiaolou had just ignited was divided into several parts for everyone to make a heating stove. The charcoal fire left on the sand is only a basin-sized ball. What's more sad is that, The fuel of this coal fire is about to run out, and the flame will go out in a few minutes.
If it is in the wild, they can still pick up some branches and dead leaves and continue to set fires. But now, looking at the vast desert, hundreds of miles around is full of endless sand, and even the shadow of a tree is invisible. Where to find Firewood?
Shao Qingge glanced at the flames that were about to extinguish on the sand-as a Zerg, he was also afraid of fire, but this kind of flame was good for heating. It was not enough to scare away the wolves. Shao Qingge looked around, and finally Frozen on the tent beside him and said, "Why don't we burn the tent, we don't have to sleep tonight anyway."
Ye Qi said, "There are still quilts in the tent, and the cotton inside can be burned for a while. If there are too many wolves, we will each use a torch against them... By the way, Mr. Shao, are you afraid of fire?"
Shao Qingge smiled and said, "It's okay. I can stay away from you and solve the wolves on the periphery. I am still in a state of transformation, and a few wolves can't hurt me at all."
Xiao Lou didn't hesitate anymore, and quickly took down the tent next to him with Shao Qingge, found a pair of scissors, and wrapped a circle of quilts with the metal stick supporting the tent, lit it as a temporary torch, and distributed it to his teammates.
At the same time, he also used the ethanol card he had obtained in the Zerg Secret Chamber.
This card can produce flammable alcohol. The production speed is 2 seconds per bottle. Xiao Lou hastily made a dozen bottles of alcohol and handed it to his teammates. Then he told Qu Wanyue, "Teacher Qu, Long Sen is now in a coma and has no resistance. Ability, if he is surrounded by wolves, his body will be eaten up by the hungry wolves. You must protect him later."
Qu Wanyue nodded. Long Sen was swept into the air when encountering a sandstorm. She had already used the chameleon card in a hurry, but Qu Wanyue's card still remained. She walked to Long Sen and brought Long Sen to the surrounding area. The desert blends into one, so that the wolves will not find him.
Xiao Lou put the smaller Yu Hanjiang into his pocket.
At this moment, a howl of "Ah woo" suddenly sounded in his ear, Xiao Lou looked back and suddenly froze in place——
The wolves have arrived and surrounded them at a rapid speed.
The eyes of countless wolves glowed with a strange brown-yellow luster, which is the unique eye color of desert wolves. In the dark night, the eyes of countless wild wolves flickered everywhere, like stars scattered everywhere, and these eyes stared directly at the people in Xiaolou.
Xiao Lou could use the light of Ye Mingzhu and the torch in his hand to see the appearance of wolves at close range. They were really lean, with healthy limbs. At this time, the pack of wolves opened their mouths wide, showing sharp teeth, and their mouths were still drooling. , I don’t know how long I have been hungry.
Hundreds of wild wolves stared at them as if they were food, and everyone couldn't help but feel a chill on their backs.
At night, the visible distance is limited, and what Xiao Lou can see clearly is only about 5 meters in front of him. The eye pupils appearing everywhere made him feel jealous. Xiao Lou hurried to Shao Qingge’s ear and whispered, "Mr. Shao, trouble. You go check it out and see how many wolves are around."
Shao Qingge nodded, "Okay, be careful."
Almost as soon as Shao Qingge acted, he suddenly heard a howl again in the distance, and then, the pack of wolves that surrounded them, faced the flames and rushed forward!
Xiao Lou's heart trembled, and he hurriedly raised the torch in his right hand in front of him. A little wolf was about to knock him down, but suddenly stopped after seeing the torch, sticking out his long tongue, and his deep eyes fiercely. Staring at Xiao Lou.
At this moment, there was another movement behind him. Xiao Lou slammed behind him with a torch in his right hand, and immediately after him, he spilled a bottle of alcohol in his left hand. When the flammable alcohol met the flame, the torch in his hand suddenly exploded. A fire!
Flames rose to the sky, sparks were splashing everywhere, and the surrounding wild wolves were afraid of the fierce fire, and they dared not approach Xiaolou.
However, they did not retreat either, they just formed a circle, staring at Xiao Lou intently.
When the teammates saw Xiao Lou's approach, they followed suit. They only took one or two torches, but under the blessing of alcohol, the torches burned more and more, and for a while, they stunned the surrounding wolves and prevented them from approaching. .
Shao Qingge quickly came back after a round of investigation. His face was very ugly. He was also afraid of fire, so he stayed in the distance and said in a deep voice, "I counted roughly. There are wolves in a radius of one kilometer. Tens of thousands, it feels like a group of wolves in the entire desert have been dispatched!"
Xiao Lou said, "The call Huaying heard just now is that the wolf king is calling for a group of wolves?"
Shao Qingge nodded solemnly; "I'm afraid it is. Unfortunately, the wolf king is among the wolves. There are too many wolves around. I can't tell which one is. It might not work to capture the thief first. Wang is very good at disguising."
He paused and asked Xiao Lou in a low voice, "What to do? We can't deal with so many wolves."
As soon as Shao Qingge’s voice fell, a gust of wind blew on his face. The torches in everyone’s hands were burning more and more under the blessing of alcohol, but this gust of wind swept up a lot of gravel, and suddenly swooped down. The flames were beating a few times. , There are actually signs of extinguishing.
Xiao Lou's heart was cold, "It's not good, the fire is going out, please be careful!"
The wind stopped and all torches went out at the same time.
There was silence around him. With the moonlight above his head, Xiao Lou clearly saw that the wolves that were afraid of the flames and dared not approach, at the moment when the flames extinguished, like an arrow from the string, suddenly rushed towards everyone——
Gui Yuan Zhang Yan was quick and smart, and immediately took out a brush and drew a circle in front of him. An airflow instantly swept the surrounding area, forming a natural wind wall, and bounced out a dozen wolves that were rushing toward everyone!
Chu Huaying flew into the pack of wolves like lightning, and the spider dagger in her hand slashed through the throat of the wild wolf in front of her, and the wolf fell to the ground, and the blood soon stained the gravel.
The companion was easily assassinated, and the surrounding wolves seemed to be irritated. They immediately surrounded Chu Huaying and screamed at her!
Chu Huaying's speed is faster than the wolf pack.
Her calm voice came from the wind, "I will draw these wolves away, Professor Xiao will find a way!"
Under the moonlight, I saw a woman in black, with a sharp red dagger in her hand, as she quickly shuttled among the wolves, as if she had entered the land of no one.
She raised the knife and fell, killing a wolf with a single knife. In a blink of an eye, the corpses around her piled up into mountains.
The smell of blood stimulated the wolves, and more and more wolves were attracted by Chu Huaying and ran to besiege her. Upon seeing this, Shao Qingge immediately joined the battle. After all, Chu Huaying couldn't take care of all directions. With the help of Mr. Shao, she was much easier to deal with the wolf.
Shao Qingge is not afraid of wolves. Because he is the king of insects, he can quickly heal no matter how many injuries he suffers. Therefore, he is even more unscrupulous-he saw the man's blood-colored eyes slightly squinted, and his sharp nails stretched out. Attack the wolf's neck!
In an instant, Shao Qingge's body was covered with blood, and the wolf did not know how much he strangled him.
He just smashed into the wolves with his bare hands, and helped his teammates hold time with Chu Huaying.
Seeing that both Chu Huaying and Shao Qingge were stained red with blood, the surrounding wolves died one after another, one after another, and the wolves kept coming. The cries of the wolves became more and more piercing, apparently launching a general attack. trend.
Xiao Lou took a deep breath and whispered "Cover me!"
Ye Qi, Gui Yuanzhang and Qu Wanyue heard this and immediately walked over to stand around Xiaolou, staring at the surroundings vigilantly.
Most of the wolves were led away by Shao Qingge and Chu Huaying. There were not many left on their side. Old Gui controlled the home court. Xiaoye and Qu Wanyue helped to pick up the leaks, and the three of them could barely handle it.
Xiao Lou freed his hand and quickly summoned Tao Yuanming.
This skill of Peach Blossom Spring could be used once a day, but this time the secret room limited the rules, and the cards will be invalidated after being used. Although it's a pity that such a strong card is discarded, but in the current situation, they can't continue to consume with tens of thousands of wolves!
Once Chu Huaying runs out of energy, the consequences will be disastrous.
No need to hesitate anymore.
There is no news from Brother Jiu, and the best thing to do at present is to open a peach blossom field to avoid the attacks of wolves. At least for the next 3 hours, Xiao Lou and the others are safe, so that Brother Jiu will have more time to find the Taohuayuan.
Peach Blossom Spring needs to read the article for 10 seconds without interruption.
Xiao Lou concentrated his mind to start the story of Peach Blossom Spring.
The surrounding wolves barked more loudly, and the howls of "Ah Woo" came one after another, making people frightened.
Seeing that there were two wolves behind him suddenly shifted their target and rushed towards Xiao Lou, Ye Qi hurriedly took out the guitar, strumming the strings with his fingers quickly, and put the two wolves into a drowsy.
Gui Yuanzhang stared at Xiao Lou's left side, Ye Qi was in charge of the back, Qu Wanyue took care of the right side, and the three of them surrounded Xiao Lou in the inner circle and tightly protected it.
Peach Blossom Spring countdown 8, 7, 6...
Xiao Lou's Peach Blossom Spring was about to be released, and the wolves became more restless and rushed towards Xiao Lou frantically!
At the moment when the countdown read 1, a reminder popped up in front of everyone's eyes-teammate Lu Jiuchuan invited you to teleport to the location he marked. Do you agree?
Xiao Lou pressed consent without hesitation.
Qu Wanyue hurriedly ran over and resisted the deserted Long Sen before pressing consent.
The scene in front of him flickered, and everyone in Xiaolou quickly came to Lu Jiuchuan.
There was no howling of wolves around, but a barrenness. There was also a bright moon hanging in the sky. The scenery was no different from the place where the tent was just set up.
To Xiao Lou's surprise, he saw two familiar faces.
Lu Jiuchuan said, "I didn't find Oasis, but I found Xiao Liu and Lao Mo."
