Ice Age: I can control plant growth

Chapter 17 Direwolf

The Ice Age arrived for nearly two months.

After the initial panic, more than a dozen shelters of various sizes had been established in various parts of Lin'an, and the survivors began to gather.

There are only three large shelters, all of which were established by the government, namely Xihu Shelter, Fuyang Shelter and Shangcheng Shelter.

The three large shelters have a population of over 10,000 people each, and the order is close to that before the end of the world. They are led by government officials and have complete operating rules.

There are two principles followed in the shelter: "more work, more pay" and "talent first".

"More work, more pay" means that everyone who joins the shelter needs to participate in labor and receive corresponding food and supplies based on their personal ability and labor intensity.

"Talent priority" means that within the shelter, people with special skills or contributions will receive more resources and respect.

For example, doctors, teachers, engineers, etc., they have a very high status in the shelter because their skills contribute to the development of the entire shelter.

But there are exceptions to everything. As long as you can become an "Awakener" and a "Source Warrior", you can enjoy the highest level of treatment.

Of course, not everyone is suitable or willing to join a shelter.

Some people, like Li Mu and his friends Cheng Cheng and Asao, choose to live independently and survive in this ice age with their own abilities and efforts.

They believe that although the shelter provides a relatively stable life, there are also many limitations and problems, such as unfair distribution of resources and abuse of power.

In contrast, they prefer to live freely and face this end of the world in their own way.

When the source energy between heaven and earth began to be filled, low temperature was no longer the primary threat to humans, and the rapidly increasing number of mutant beasts became a greater hazard.

After all, in low temperatures, you just need to keep warm, but mutant beasts will actively attack humans.

At the beginning of the Ice Age, there were not many mutant beasts and they were not very dangerous.

Without the meat provided by farms across the country, the survivors relied on the guns they had left behind and only regarded mutant beasts as a way to supplement their meat. They began to slaughter all the mutant beasts they saw in order to ensure their own survival.

But the laws of the world changed the moment source energy appeared. Due to the magic of source energy and the rebound, the number of mutant beasts began to surge, and they evolved into larger sizes and became more aggressive towards humans.

After the Ice Age, wildlife parks around the world were under-supervised and all kinds of wild animals escaped. This means that you can see elephants in Africa, wild wolves in the Northeast, lions in the Americas, and even polar bears hunting penguins.
Although Li Mu and the other two did not join the shelter, they all registered as "bounty hunters."

Bounty Hunters are survivors who survive by completing missions in the Vault.

After many transactions with the shelter, they were noticed by the shelter's top management. This time, Cheng Cheng and Asao were invited to encircle and suppress a group of direwolves.

According to the spies' reports, there are more than three hundred direwolves in this group.

The majority were ordinary wild wolves whose size had not changed. In addition, there were more than 30 giant wolves that were nearly two meters tall and more than three meters long, and a wolf king that could control ice and wind.

Recently, under the leadership of the Wolf King, wolves have repeatedly attacked the shelter teams that went out to collect resources.

The death toll has reached hundreds!

After seeing this, the top government officials realized that they could no longer allow the wolves to attack humans at will, so they sent out an awakened person and a company of troops, and summoned nearly a hundred bounty hunters to cooperate with the army of the shelter to hunt down the wolves.

All the direwolves killed in this trip will belong to you, and after the mission is completed, you will be rewarded according to the number of direwolves killed.

Asao has been eager to fight since he became a Source Warrior, and Chengcheng specially accompanied Asao to prevent him from being isolated and helpless.

As for Li Mu, the three claimed to the outside world that he was a wood-type awakener who only liked to study plants at home and was not good at fighting, but outsiders did not know what the truth was.

"A Sao, when the battle starts, you come with me, don't rush in alone!"

In a snow-covered forest, Cheng Cheng put his arm around Asao's shoulders and gave instructions.

"Got it!" "I'm reckless, but I'm not stupid. If I charge at all these direwolves alone, wouldn't that be courting death?"

Asao took off the sword behind him and began to check his equipment.

Right in front of the two of them, a group of fully armed soldiers were standing by, and the air was filled with a murderous aura!
"report!"

"The wolves are one kilometer ahead of our army!"

Following the scout's report, ten fully armed soldiers walked out of the team and ran towards the wolf pack.

The military has released a strategic plan before the mission begins:
Ten members of the suicide squad will go to provoke the wolf pack, while the others will lie in ambush on the spot. When the wolves chase to the ambush point, the others will attack together and try not to let any direwolf escape!

After waiting for about half an hour, as the earth shook, the figures of the suicide squad members appeared in front of everyone, followed by a pack of wolves chasing after them.

At this time, the wolves were still about three hundred meters away from the team.

Seeing the appearance of the suicide squad and the wolf pack, Asao and Chengcheng's faces turned serious.

They knew that a fierce battle was about to begin!

"Ready to fight!"

Cheng Cheng whispered, then tightly gripped the pea hand cannon in his hand.

The wolf king seemed to have sensed that something was wrong and suddenly became extremely irritable.

But after hunting humans so many times, it has long been unable to give up the food that is within its reach.

"Ouch!"

With a roar that cut through the sky, the wolves suddenly sped up.

With a "whoosh", a member of the suicide squad was suddenly tripped by an ice cone rising from the ground and was instantly swallowed by the wolf pack.

"Fire!"

Upon seeing this, the army commander knew that he could not wait for the wolves to get any closer, so he decisively gave the order for all the soldiers to raise their guns and attack the wolves.

"Babababa"

“Wuwu..Wuwu.”

With the continuous shooting from hundreds of rifles, the number of ordinary direwolves was rapidly decreasing, and the direwolves that kept falling down howled in pain on the ground.

But the elite of the wolf pack, the giant wolves, had not suffered any damage. With their huge bodies and solid fur, they were no longer afraid of ordinary gunfire!
"Ouch!"

Another roar.

Under the command of the Wolf King, the giant wolves began to rush in front of the wolf pack to block bullets for the ordinary ice wolves!

In just a dozen seconds, when most people had just emptied their first magazine, the wolves had already rushed to within dozens of meters of the crowd.

"Change your swords!"

"kill!"

Following the commander's order, all the soldiers rushed towards the wolves with swords in hand.

Swords flashed and blood splattered. Although the wolves were ferocious, ordinary direwolves were no match for the well-trained soldiers!
