The weather was clear in the wilderness. The light of the setting sun shone on the ground, but the temperature was still low. Zhou Chen and the tall girl walked on the snow-covered road in the direction of Cedar Town.
The two of them returned much faster than when they came and arrived before night fell.
As soon as they arrived at Cedar Town, they realized that this place had also been ravaged by the earthquake. There were no intact houses in the entire town, and the casualties were quite serious. The people who were still alive were injured badly. Even the tough-skinned Dave was bruised all over.
“Holy Spirit! Why are you punishing me like this?”
In the ruins of Cedar Town, the muscular Dave roared in pain as he dug at the ruins of his house.
Zhou Chen’s countenance changed when he saw this from afar. He felt that any words of comfort would be very powerless, so he directly turned and left.
“Where are we going?”
The tall girl asked when she saw Zhou Chen walking into the wilderness.
“I don’t know either. Let’s just go south. Most of the towns in the north should be finished. If we can find a suitable place, we’ll stay there. If not, we’ll live in an uninhabited area to prevent a disaster from happening to innocent people.”
Zhou Chen replied calmly.
“I think… this earthquake might not have been caused by the system.”
The tall girl was silent for a moment before replying softly.
“Who knows? Anyway, we’re going to have to survive in the wild from now on. Look at how beautiful the moon and the night sky are.”
Looking up at the bright night sky, Zhou Chen realized that there was also only one moon in this world, but the moon was much larger than the Planet Blue’s, looking like a setting in some old movies.
The two of them walked south. About an hour later, bluish green dots appeared in the distance.
“Those are… wolf packs?”
The tall girl immediately slowed down and asked hesitantly.
“Hmm, about forty to fifty snow wolves.”
Zhou Chen had long seen the situation over there with the help of the Low Light Vision, and he said indifferently.
“Forty to fifty? There are too many. Let’s quickly change direction.”
The tall girl immediately became alert.
“Don’t worry, I can deal with this number.”
Zhou Chen did not care and continued to walk forward.
The tall girl hesitated for a second, but in the end, she followed.
The two of them walked on the snow for a minute before they heard the increasingly clear howl of the wolves and the faint sound of the wolves running in the snow.
Zhou Chen still continued walking steadily.
The tall girl behind him was clearly not that relaxed. She pulled out her saber and was prepared to fight.
Zhou Chen looked calmly at the charging wolf pack as he walked.
‘This is still a little far.’
He thought to himself.
After a few more steps,
‘This distance should be enough.’
He thought to himself.
After determining that the distance between him and the wolf pack was good enough, Zhou Chen suddenly stopped moving. He stood stably with his legs spread and his waist slightly bent. He pulled the mask on his face to his neck and raised his hands to his chest, and performed dazzling hand seals.
“Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!”
After quickly finishing some dazzling hand seals, Zhou Chen suddenly shouted loudly. Then, he leaned his head forward slightly and breathed out a stream of fire that covered the charging wolf pack!
The wolf pack clearly did not expect Zhou Chen to have such a move. Moreover, the flames that Zhou Chen shot out were very fast. The snow wolves were immediately drowned by the flames and let out extremely miserable cries.
The tall girl standing behind Zhou Chen revealed a trace of surprise. She looked at Zhou Chen and quickly charged forward to stab a snow wolf that was charging towards him.
Zhou Chen’s fire-breathing performance lasted for about seven seconds. In the meantime, he continued to adjust the direction of the fire and tried to burn as many snow wolves as possible.
The snow wolves suffered heavy casualties under his fire-breathing attack. More than half of them were burned to ashes or roasted alive. Those that were lucky enough not to be burned to death had their hair completely burnt, making them look extremely miserable.
The surviving snow wolves had already lost the courage to attack, and fled after letting out a few whimpers.
‘The maximum effective range is about 25 meters, the end covers an area of about three square meters. The power is not bad, it can burn ordinary beasts to death in two seconds. This attack that lasted for seven to eight seconds needed at least half a day of fire attribute energy, which is a lot of consumption.’
After breathing fire with the Fire Source passive skill, Zhou Chen silently summarized the details of the skill. It seemed to be quite powerful, but the consumption was a little high. If he used the earlier attack again, the fire energy in his body would be emptied.
‘The fire breathing wyvern could maintain it much longer. Looks like its passive skill can’t exert the same effect on me.’
Zhou Chen thought to himself.
At this moment, seeing that the wolves were no longer a threat, the tall girl sheathed her saber and returned to her silent state.
“Don’t remain idle. It’s time to eat the roasted wolf meat.”
Zhou Chen did not care what her thoughts would be from seeing his skill test. He directly walked forward and began to choose roasted wolf meat.
“This one is completely burnt, this one is too charred… this leg looks good.”
After searching for a while, Zhou Chen found a wolf leg that was not burnt. He took out the ax and chopped it down. Then, he dealt with it briefly and began to eat.
The taste of this roasted wolf meat was not good. It was somewhat bitter, and some parts were not cooked fully, but Zhou Chen still swallowed it.
He had only eaten a few potatoes since arriving in this world yesterday. He was hungry and needed a lot of high energy food.
He had only taken a few bites when the tall girl quietly joined in. She used her saber to cut a piece of meat from a roasted wolf and placed it in her mouth, chewing with a frown.
“Don’t be so picky. Eat more.”
Zhou Chen said to her.
The girl shook her head.
“We need to start a fire to process this meat.. Otherwise, we might get sick.”
