Wilderness Survival with Druid System-Chapter 401 - 70: Feng Zhong Attacked

"Damn it! Get lost!"

Feng Zhong half-kneeled on the shelter’s platform, trembling all over.

He was scared, but more than that, he was tense.

Upon seeing familiar weapons appear, Leopard the First, who was climbing the tree, immediately let out a threatening roar.

Feng Zhong was momentarily intimidated by the roar but quickly shook it off.

His gaze was fierce, and he raised a wooden javelin, aiming at Leopard the First’s head before striking it.

Leopard the First had a tough head, intending to withstand the blow.

Then it would climb the tree to knock the hateful biped off.

But it underestimated what Chen Wen had crafted.

Chen Wen’s creations prioritize quality.

With a resounding clang.

A sharp sound emanated from the leopard’s head.

The pain from the strike began to spread, gradually reaching Leopard the First’s entire body.

It let out a painful roar, starting to retreat.

In the face of injury, ninety-nine percent of wild animals will withdraw.

Especially for solitary predators like leopards.

After Leopard the First retreated, Feng Zhong felt his clothes soaked with sweat.

Seizing the opportunity, he steeled his nerves.

Stay calm!

Stay calm!

Like a buff, Feng Zhong shouted several times to himself in his heart.

The effect was excellent.

The panic in his eyes dissipated a lot.

Now, the primary thing is not to let these guys come up!

Feng Zhong began to think of strategies.

He glanced around, apart from Chen Wen’s food, firewood, and javelin.

On the treehouse platform, he only had three tools of his own.

Namely a machete, a long spear, and a water bottle.

He held the long spear in his left hand to keep his distance from the leopard.

Giving it no chance to pounce.

While his right hand wielded Chen Wen’s wooden javelin, making a threatening gesture.

"Get lost! There’s nothing for you here!"

Feng Zhong shouted loudly, meanwhile brightening the fire.

He positioned himself between the fire and the leopard, enlarging his shadow to intimidate the leopard.

When faced with a beast attack.

As long as survivors have time to react, they can devise the best response.

Leopard the First faced the javelin that nearly harmed it, along with the large, swaying shadow.

Showing signs of retreat.

It felt the pressure Feng Zhong had deliberately created, involuntarily becoming fearful.

But Leopard the Second was different.

Leopard the Second lived in a very rich area.

There was a large plain where the local tribespeople lived.

There, Leopard the Second repeatedly stole chickens, caught ducks, and grabbed livestock.

It was long accustomed to humans and their bluffing tactics.

It could even calmly snatch stolen livestock amid firecracker explosions.

Therefore, not only did Leopard the Second not retreat, it tried climbing the tree.

This scene suddenly made Feng Zhong tense.

He struck the tree hard with the long spear, creating a banging sound.

This time it worked.

Feeling the wind moved by the long spear, Leopard the Second stopped climbing.

It raised its head to roar, intending to pressure Feng Zhong into making a wrong decision.

But Feng Zhong was a seasoned survivor.

Seeing the leopard starting to roar, he immediately relaxed.

An animal’s roar is a precursor to attack, also its last resort when helpless.

Therefore, when a leopard fails its attack and resorts to roaring, Feng Zhong knew he was likely safe.

He aimed the long spear at the treehouse entrance, blocking the leopards’ only path from below.

Meanwhile, Feng Zhong began using the wooden javelin to start a fire.

Faced with a wild animal attack, flames are the lowest-cost yet highest-efficiency tool for repelling.

After igniting the javelin, Feng Zhong immediately started throwing.

But he hadn’t undergone systematic practice or training.

So although the javelin throw had some accuracy, not too much.

The ignited javelin pierced the night, landing on the ground beside Leopard the First.

Leopard the First was frightened by the flames and immediately jumped away.

But as the javelin landed, the damp ground quickly extinguished the flames on the javelin.

It’s raining today!

Not suitable for a fire attack!

Feng Zhong’s expression changed instantly.

But even without a fire attack, as long as he maintained distance and didn’t provoke the leopards.

Soon, they would retreat by themselves!

After all, he had no enmity with them, probably wouldn’t stay here for him, right?

Feng Zhong thought confidently.

Unfortunately, what Feng Zhong didn’t know was that initially, the leopards held no grudge against him.

However, as he entered and stayed in Chen Wen’s shelter.

The leopard brothers already considered him an intruder like Chen Wen.

Unless he abandoned the shelter now and left.

The leopard brothers would never give up attacking.

In such a standoff.

Feng Zhong suddenly noticed Leopard the Second, who had almost climbed earlier, was moving again.

This time, it began trying to jump from the exposed side.

The airborne chevaux-de-frise, built by Chen Wen, which he raised daily.

But Feng Zhong didn’t know this.

As Leopard the Second gathered strength for a leap.

Feng Zhong’s heart immediately hung in suspense.

He quickly swung the long spear to block the leopard’s pounce.

He succeeded.

The leopard didn’t jump onto the platform.

But Feng Zhong’s left arm was scratched by the leopard, a sharp pain spreading from the lower left arm.

He glanced at the wound, his face twisted— the injury was serious!

But while checking the wound, he caught sight of the airborne chevaux-de-frise Chen Wen left behind out of the corner of his eye.

Feng Zhong froze momentarily, then suddenly looked ecstatic.

Good stuff!

He immediately grabbed the rope, pulling up the airborne chevaux-de-frise.

Being pulled by the rope, the chevaux-de-frise smeared with belladonna toxin was raised, facing the air.

Below.

Leopard the Second hesitated for a moment.

It had never seen such a thing.

But the ignorant fear not.

Leopard the Second made a backward jump, gathered strength, and pounced again!

In midair, when Leopard the Second’s forelegs hit the chevaux-de-frise, it was already destined.

With a piercing sound.

A sharp stick pierced Leopard’s forelegs, and Leopard roared in pain.

It struggled, relying on its weight, breaking free from the chevaux-de-frise, limping away.

Seeing the situation, Leopard the First was even more fearful and rushed to its brother’s side.

Leopard the Second was now lying on its side on the ground, breathing heavily from its chest.

Its forelegs and shoulders were punctured with two bloody holes by the spikes.

Not life-threatening, but extremely painful!

Momentarily, it dared not go up again, only licking its wounds continuously.

Above, Feng Zhong was ecstatic.

"Chen Wen! Genius!"

Feng Zhong yelled uncontrollably.

He truly didn’t expect such a small treehouse could have such outstanding defense.

Genius!

Survival genius!

Feng Zhong carrying the long spear, stared down at the two leopards.

Straightened up by the chevaux-de-frise?

Time to go?

Feng Zhong thought.

But surprisingly, the leopards didn’t choose to leave.

Instead, they positioned themselves approximately thirty meters apart, quietly guarding there.

Feng Zhong was stunned, his mood plummeting.

What the heck?

Are they going to fight me to the end?
