Then, in Su Chen’s field of vision, more figures of hungry wolves appeared one after another. They appeared from the trees on all sides and came to the side of the wolf leader.

After nearly an hour, dozens of hungry wolves gathered around. Some of the hungry wolves came alone while others came in groups of three to five. When the wolf leader roared, they all quieted down instantly. Some of them were even holding food in their mouths.

Some were wild boars, some were wild rabbits, and some were herbivores that Su Chen had never seen before. However, when three hungry wolves dragged the body of an eagle over, Su Chen was so scared that he shivered.

If he had not held onto the branch by the side, he would have fallen down. However, if an eagle could be up on a tree and still become food for the hungry wolves, there was a chance he could also be captured by them.

At that moment, he only had one thought in his mind. ‘I hope this eagle’s bitten to death by the hungry wolves on the ground.”

At the same time, he continued to climb up. Soon, he reached the middle of the tree.

While he was climbing the tree, the hungry wolves began to eat under the command of their leader.

The food that the hungry wolves brought over was torn apart by the entire pack and quickly turned into a pile of bones. Looking at the bloody scene of the hungry wolves eating under the tree, their occasional roars and pairs of green eyes caused Su Chen to grip the tree branch tightly. Cold sweat kept breaking out on his forehead. He muttered, “There’s so much food. They won’t come up again after they’re full.”

Soon, after the food turned into bones, the dozens of hungry wolves gathered again under the command of their leader.

In the next moment, following the howl of the leader, the pairs of green eyes were all aimed at Su Chen on the tree. This scene immediately caused Su Chen, who was watching the situation below from above, to almost die from fright.

Su Chen’s fantasy was shattered in the next moment. Dozens of hungry wolves surrounded the tree. A few of them approached the tree trunk and extended their claws, stabbing into the tree trunk.

Following that, a few more hungry wolves suddenly leaped forward. They extended their claws to hook onto the tree trunk and jumped onto the tree branch.

Just as Su Chen was in a daze, five hungry wolves climbed onto the tree. Although the actions of the wolves did not change, they could still move when the tree branches intersected.

They used their sharp claws to hook onto the tree branches to stabilize their bodies. Then, they moved toward Su Chen, step by step. Very soon, they were close to where Su Chen was.

“This…” Seeing several hungry wolves attacking from a few sides, Su Chen’s eyes widened and he could not help but gulp. With his back against the tree trunk that could block his body, he held his sword with both hands and looked at the few hungry wolves that were howling on the tree branch in front of him.

Looking at Su Chen, the hungry wolves did not immediately pounce on him. Instead, they stayed on the tree branch and waited for him to reveal his weakness.

Although he was a little afraid, he held his sword and leaned against the tree trunk without moving.

As time passed, surrounded by so many hungry wolves, he actually calmed down the fear in his heart and his eyes carried a calmness as well as a trace of craziness as he looked at the five hungry wolves around him.

Howl, howl, howl.

At this moment, the leader of the wolves under the tree also howled, as if it was urging him. After the leader howled, the five wolves in front of him began to move.

A wolf that was positioned diagonally above him let out a low howl. Its body moved slightly, then it bent its body and pounced at him.

Roar! The large mouth of the hungry wolf was aimed at him. Immediately, Su Chen held the sword in his hand and thrust it forward.

The sword pierced into the stomach of the hungry wolf. Immediately, fresh blood spurted out of its stomach.

Due to this attack, the wolf missed its target and smashed into a tree branch at the side.

Roar!

However, this was only one wolf. After the first wolf missed, another two wolves pounced at him from both sides.

“Ah!”

Su Chen let out a loud cry as he faced the hungry wolves on both sides. He leaped toward a branch at the side, causing the two hungry wolves to miss their target.

However, his feet slipped and he could not stand properly. In a hurry, the sword in his hand pierced into the body of one of the hungry wolves that had just pounced over.

A wave of pain caused the wolf to lose its grip and fall. At this moment, Su Chen used the force that pierced the hungry wolf to stabilize his body. He stabbed the other wolf that was pouncing over from behind.

Simultaneously, two hungry wolves in other directions also began to move.

“Ha!”

Su Chen once again let out a loud cry. The sword in his hand stabbed a wolf that was pouncing over in front of him.

Then, his sword was stabbed into the mouth of another hungry wolf. Immediately, this caused the wolf to twitch. The huge force he used to push forward sent Su Chen flying with the sword in his hand.

In the next moment, he crashed into a tree trunk. Immediately after, he heard a cracking sound from behind him and felt an intense pain in his body.

However, Su Chen was considered lucky. He fell onto a tree branch and did not fall down. The wolf that had been stabbed by Su Chen fell off his sword and fell onto a tree branch at the side.

After being struck by the sword, this wolf was quickly unable to take it anymore. However, without giving Su Chen a chance to catch his breath, the remaining two hungry wolves pounced on nothing for the first time. After they steadied themselves, they pounced on Su Chen once again.

‘Damn it,’ Su Chen silently cursed as he endured the pain in his body. Then, he shouted loudly, clenched the sword in his hand, and stabbed at a wolf.

This time, it pierced into one of the wolf’s eyes. Immediately, the hungry wolf howled and wanted to stop.

However, this wolf was mid-air at this moment. It did not have any place to borrow strength from. Instead, it randomly extended its claws.

It was then flung onto another hungry wolf at the side. Immediately, there were several scars on the body of this hungry wolf.

After being attacked, this wolf was immediately startled. It turned to the side and pounced onto one of Su Chen’s arms. It immediately took a bite.

“Ah!!”

Su Chen immediately let out a miserable cry. His eyes turned red as he looked at the hungry wolf on his shoulder. Under the pain, he used his other hand to take out a short dagger that was hidden in his chest, piercing it directly into the wolf’s neck..
