The Lord of Glimmer plants the sun in the eternal night.

"It really was them!"

Jiang Chuan frowned. There were two white wolf-like beasts there, almost the same size as the alien that attacked him yesterday.

He then turned angry, for he discovered a small bear cub with blood-red fur soaking in the hot spring, with one of the wolves patrolling and guarding it.

"Those damn bastards."

Some villagers were attacked by a blood bear. Some suffered broken ribs, and others had their arms nearly torn off. This may be because the patrolmen had stolen their homes, which is why the blood bear became so bloodthirsty.

Although it's unclear how they did it, it's obvious that everyone outside the mountains became their shield.

"Think of a way."

Jiang Chuan muttered to himself.

If you don't solve the problem today, it will come knocking on your door tomorrow.

Just then, he remembered that Qin Kexing had said yesterday that he was going to Shicun today.

Normally, they would go out in groups of two or three to patrol the mountains, while the people who stayed behind would guard the outpost.

"I'll go up after everyone leaves."

Jiang Chuan gazed at the mountain peak in silence for a long time, and finally waited for three figures to emerge from the wooden house one after another.

Luck was on his side; one of the people there was Qin Kexing, so he wouldn't have to face him for the time being.

The other two were unfamiliar; they weren't the people who had gone to Xing Shou Village with the other party yesterday.

"Another swordsman?" Jiang Chuan guessed.

So, does that mean that only one breeder and another combatant are left behind?

I should be able to handle two white wolves, since I killed one yesterday and my fear of them isn't that strong anymore.

What's more, he's much stronger today than he was yesterday.

In addition...

Level 1 Wolf Fang Arrow

[Function: Bleeding]

【Characteristics: Level 1 Devious Wound, Level 1 Penetration, Level 1 Silent, Level 1 Durability】

[Durability: 200/200]

...

Jiang Chuan gently stroked the quiver, which contained eight iron-tipped arrows and upgraded wolf-tooth arrows.

The two-winged, three-hooked arrows, transformed from wolf fangs, will become firmly embedded in the body once hit by them. Trying to pull them out will tear off a large chunk of flesh along with them. If they are not pulled out, they will bleed continuously, just like being hit by a three-edged dagger, making them extremely lethal.

Apart from arrows.

He also enhanced the bow and arrow.

Level 1 Bone Bow

【Function: Beast Power (Eight-Power Bow)】

【Characteristics: Level 2 Accuracy, Level 1 Durability, Level 1 Projectile Speed】

[Durability: 200/200]

...

The bow is pure white, with animal sinew forming the bowstring.

The Eight-Strength Bow can hit its target every time it is within forty paces.

In the world of eternal night, one unit of strength equals twelve catties, and a bow with eight units of strength equals ninety-six catties.

As far as he knew, the village's hunting team, led by Fu Jiu, also used the Eight-Force Bow.

In other words, he has reached the same level of archery skill as Fu Jiu.

It should be noted that Fu Jiu is a seasoned swordsman, and even in this small area, he is considered an elite.

As for Level 2 Precision, it allows him to achieve a 90% hit rate within 40 steps, or 50 meters.

In short, his own improvement, coupled with the support of external forces, has given him the confidence to face the patrollers.

I didn't think about it anymore.

After Qin Kexing and the other two had gone far away, he leisurely descended the mountain and headed towards the only road leading to the stronghold.

The snowflakes turned his black hair white, the mountain mist gradually dissipated, and the sky was no longer so dark.

Jiang Chuan walked alone in the wind and snow, arriving at the foot of the mountain where the patrol team was staying.

Approaching silently, they gradually climbed the mountain peak, now only a few dozen meters from the flat land.

If it weren't for the strong wind and heavy snow, those two wolfhounds with their keen sense of smell would probably have already caught the scent of the stranger.

Even now, they seem to sense it, perking up their beast ears to listen carefully.

In one of the larger wooden cabins, the glow of firelight flickered, casting the shadows of two people through the window. In this frigid weather, they were drinking and eating steaming hot yak meat cooked in a copper pot over a charcoal fire.

"Why hasn't the mistress returned yet? Could she have encountered other mutated beasts?"

"It's just a dog, how can it compare to a blood bear cub? If Brother Fang can successfully tame it this time, his talent sequence will improve significantly!"

"Hehe, I'm not really sad, I just wonder if the mistress got rid of that kid yet?"

"After tonight, shall we go check out Snow Eagle Ridge? Hmm, I absolutely must try the herbs, little sister-in-law, and there's also the matter of growing herbs with the fire spring..."

The words carried on the wind, and Jiang Chuan wanted to hear more. It seemed that the people left behind were a breeder and a medic, and they were going to do something to deal with the fire spring that had its eyes on Snow Eagle Ridge.

Unfortunately, he could no longer spy, because the outermost wolf had appeared outside the hut and was looking in his direction, then opened its mouth to roar.

He aimed at the window and drew his bow at the last, most muscular man. One after another, iron arrows mixed with wolf-tooth arrows pierced the night like lightning, and all of them shot into the wooden house with a whooshing sound.

Someone inside immediately let out a muffled groan, and then the figure quickly lay down.

The wolf-beast howled incessantly, displaying considerable power. Its roars shattered the snowflakes in front of it, and its massive body unleashed astonishing strength as it charged fiercely toward Jiang Chuan's location.

Jiang Chuan didn't care about the people inside the house anymore. Anyway, none of them were in combat formation, and they were far less of a threat than the two dogs.

So he immediately changed his target and unleashed a hail of arrows at the two guard dogs.

In an instant, the beast-powered bow, which is difficult for ordinary people to use, is drawn to a full moon shape, and a powerful iron arrow flies out, with even the vibrating sound of the bowstring being very loud.

In the distance, the white wolf, charging with a ferocious aura, suddenly stopped, struck by an arrow.

Jiang Chuan was highly focused, firing repeatedly, his barrage seemingly intent on emptying the quiver.

Some of the iron arrows pierced the thick tree trunks with a thud, causing the snowflakes on the trees to fall like a snow waterfall in an instant.

Ow—

However, accompanied by a muffled and painful howl, the alpha wolf's massive body shuddered violently, stumbled a few steps, and then collapsed to the ground, powerless.

As the saying goes, even a master craftsman can be killed by a hail of arrows, let alone arrows that have been reinforced and modified.

In the distance, Fang Suo, who had rushed out by bracing himself against the door, saw the white wolf's corpse fall to the ground and cried out in anguish, "Yanzi!"

He had tamed this wolf for many years, unlike the others, because there was genuine affection involved.

"Don't worry, I'll send you down to reunite with it right away."

Being targeted by these people for no reason, and with his life being less important than a vicious dog in their eyes, his anger intensified.

With two arrows remaining, he drew his bow without hesitation and flew towards Fangsuo against the wind and snow.

Although Fang Suo wasn't in the combat sequence, his reflexes were sharp. His strong body moved quickly to the side, barely dodging the attack.

He was horrified. What a fast and vicious arrow! The arrow grazed his body and embedded itself in the thick doorpost, with most of the arrow shaft disappearing.

"Who are you, and why are you targeting us?"

Faced with such a threat, he immediately summoned his wolfhounds to protect him, forced himself to calm down, and asked the question.

"Yes, yes, let's sit down and talk!"

The healer, struck by the wolf-tooth arrow, hid behind a table in the house, treating his wound while shouting loudly.

Jiang Chuan remained silent, holding the black gun in his right hand and pointing it forward, the tip slightly raised. He approached step by step, calm and collected, and although he looked young, he had a strong presence.

As he emerged from the dark woods and approached the fire spring area, his face became clearly visible, leaving Fang Suo utterly stunned.

"You're Jiang Chuan from Snow Eagle Ridge...?!"

Fang found it hard to believe. He had just met this boy yesterday. He was timid and submissive under their intimidation and dared not speak loudly. How come he is like a completely different person now?

If he was going to kill me yesterday after I softened my stance, how could we possibly reconcile today?

Fang Suo, understanding the problem, immediately drew his sword and shouted:

"Quickly, Zhao Chengyu, come out and join us in killing him! He's all alone!"
