Pretending to be a genius starts with the civilization advancement assessment.

Chapter 24 The Farmer's Bountiful Harvest
Lin Yi, facing the encirclement of five Abyss Wolves, deliberately acted as if he were in a frenzy of fighting.

"Come!"

He let out a low shout, and instead of retreating, he advanced, directly confronting the three creatures in front of him.

At this moment, the first three Abyss Wolves also demonstrated the tactical coordination of an Abyss Wolf squad:

The wolf in the center was the most robust. It roared and charged straight at Lin Yi's face, while the wolf on the left lowered its body and used its sharp claws to viciously scratch at the outside of Lin Yi's thigh and the bend of his knee.

Its angle is so tricky that it is clearly intended to disable the target's mobility.

The rightmost abyssal wolf did not pounce immediately. Instead, it suddenly stopped not far from Lin Yi, its thick bony tail raised high like a scorpion.

"Here it comes, the real killer move."

Lin Yi snorted coldly in his heart. He had killed countless Abyss Wolves in his previous life and was very familiar with the tricks of this standard Abyss Wolf squad.

Use frontal attacks and flank harassment to block out dodging space and cover the sneak attack of corrosive acid.

A ruthless glint flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. As a "genius" who had already witnessed a strong acid attack, he naturally had a way to deal with it.

Then create a time difference, take advantage of the other two flanking and getting separated, withstand the claw attack, dodge the acid, and forcefully kill from the front!

Therefore, instead of retreating, he took half a step forward to face the abyss wolf that was rushing towards him head-on, and at the same time twisted his waist and hips sharply, bringing the outside of his right leg, which was covered with the thickest leg armor and part of the skirt armor, to meet the sharp claw that was grabbing at the ground on his left!

"Hey!"

With a piercing metallic tearing sound, several claw marks were slashed across the armor on the outside of Lin Yi's right leg.

However, he also used the force of his claw strike to flip over, narrowly avoiding the corrosive liquid mass, and moved to the side of the abyss wolf in front of him.

Then, he sprang upwards like a carp leaping out of its shell, his long staff mimicking the explosive "Rising Dragon Strike" move from "The Great Sage Equal to Heaven," delivering a fierce upward slash to the soft belly of the abyss wolf in front of him.

"Open it for me!"

With the force of Lin Yi's entire body, the long staff struck the abyss wolf directly in the abdomen, the end of the staff even plunging deep into its abdominal cavity before sending it flying through the air.

Then, Lin Yi charged straight to the left!
The wolf on the left howled and tried to bite when it saw Lin Yi charging towards it, but Lin Yi thrust his long staff forward with a swift thrust, the tip of the staff piercing the wolf's mouth and breaking through its upper jaw, and then twisted it with force.

At the same time, without even looking at the result, he stepped to the right and, with the power of his core, twisted his body violently, pulling the long staff out of the wolf's mouth. He then swung it backhand, smashing it hard against the abyss wolf on the right, which had already adjusted its angle and was trying to spray acid again.

"Bang!" The end of the stick struck the fragile nose of the abyss wolf squarely.

With a piercing scream, the abyssal wolf, whose weak point was suddenly attacked, was immediately struck so hard that it saw stars, and its poised acid attack was abruptly interrupted.

Lin Yi, naturally, pressed his advantage. He leaped forward, gripped his staff with both hands, and delivered a powerful vertical chop to the back of the abyss wolf's head, which was bowing in pain.

"Mountain-splitting style!"

Click!

The crisp, melodious sound of skulls shattering signified the death of the third Abyss Wolf.

In just six or seven breaths, all three Abyss Wolves that launched a frontal assault were killed!

At that moment, the two wolves that were trying to flank the enemy had just rounded the overturned tables and chairs.

What they saw was not prey being besieged, but their own kind turning to ashes and ferocious figures that had turned against them.

Fear instantly overwhelmed the ferocity.

The two wolves let out a short, terrified howl, turned around without hesitation, and fled towards the gate!

"run?"

Lin Yi's eyes flashed, and the remaining source energy surged through his body instantly! His waist was pulled back like a fully drawn bow, and at the same time, the muscles in his right arm bulged high as he hurled the blood-stained black iron staff in his hand!

Immediately afterward, Lin Yi didn't stop for a moment. He raised his left index finger like a viper spitting out its tongue, and with a bright blue light, he pointed it at the fleeing figure!
After doing all this, he suppressed his churning blood and deep-seated exhaustion, dragging his leaden legs step by step toward the nearest gray light.

It's harvest time. Bending down, picking up the berries, straightening up—the movements are steady and deliberate, without the slightest unnecessary movement.

Lin Yi was like a farmer gleaning from the fields after a bountiful harvest, silent and focused, as he took the five Spirit Crystals scattered throughout the hall into his palm one by one.

After doing all this, he slowly turned his gaze to the broken door.

On the threshold inside the gate, a radiant crystal lay quietly.

The abyss wolf was the fastest runner, but unfortunately, the blue light arrived first and accurately sniped it.

Lin Yi stepped over the overturned debris on the ground and walked to the Spirit Crystal. He bent down again, his movements still steady, as if he were just picking up a pebble, and picked up the sixth Spirit Crystal.

Then, he straightened up, his gaze passing over the threshold to the carpet outside the Hongfulou entrance, where the last corpse of the Abyss Wolf lay frozen in a prone position.

It was pierced through the waist and abdomen by the black iron rod that Lin Yi threw with all his might, and was pinned to the ground. Its body was slowly turning into ashes.

On the distant street, the other small packs of Abyss Wolves that had been roaming near their den seemed to have been startled by the fierce battle that suddenly broke out and then stopped in the direction of Hongfulou, as well as the half-scream of their companion before dying.

They all stopped what they were doing, looking warily toward Hongfulou, letting out uneasy growls.

However, the sounds of fierce fighting soon disappeared, and the entire Hongfulou area fell into an eerie silence.

They pawed at the ground anxiously, growling, and slowly retreated a few steps, but none of them dared to take another step closer to Hongfulou. They just stared intently at the building that seemed to have turned into a gaping maw of abyss.

Lin Yi understood as he observed the reactions of the Abyss Wolves in the distance.

He had achieved his desired effect; at this moment, the Hongfulou area had been identified as a high-level threat.

In the short term, this place will become a vacuum.

They will only launch a large-scale attack once the nest has given birth to a more powerful abyss beast and all other lower threats have been eliminated.

And so, under the watchful eyes of dozens of fearful and wary dark red wolves in the distance, Lin Yi expressionlessly lifted his foot and stepped across the blood-stained threshold of Hongfulou.

He stepped onto the street outside the door.

The summer evening sun was still scorching, and the smell of blood from the streets permeated the air, making people quite uncomfortable.

Ignoring the prying eyes from the shadows not far away, Lin Yi walked straight to the corpse of the Abyss Wolf that was nailed to the red carpet outside the door.

He looked down at the corpse, which was impaled by a long stick and nailed to the front of Hongfulou like a sacrifice, and patiently waited for the Lingyao Crystal to take shape.

Then, he bent down again, as if picking up fallen fruit in his own backyard, and picked up the seventh and last Spirit Crystal that shimmered with a gray light.

After doing all this, Lin Yi straightened up and looked at the black iron rod deeply embedded in the ground.

The staff was now mostly soaked in dark red blood, reflecting an eerie luster in the sunlight.

Lin Yi slowly extended his right hand, spread his five fingers, and firmly grasped the stick. The sensation was a mixture of cold metal and sticky blood.

He paused deliberately for a moment before tensing his arm muscles and pulling hard.

"Sizzle."

With a dull thud, the blood-stained weapon returned to Lin Yi's hands.

Thick drops of blood dripped from the heavy tip of the stick, leaving dark dots on the bright red carpet.

Then, dragging this heavy weapon, Lin Yi turned around steadily, step by step, stepping over the dark red bloodstain from the sixth abyss wolf on the threshold, and stepped back into the broken entrance hall of Hongfulou.

Throughout the entire ordeal, he never looked up at the pack of wolves in the distance, which were emitting uneasy growls.

The figure gradually blended into the dim light deep inside the hall, and finally disappeared.
