“Everyone, maintain your positions.
Absolutely do not allow the Werewolf to escape!”
At the edge of the battlefield, Zhang Yang was commanding from behind the trenches.
Watching the rapidly deteriorating situation on the field, he felt anxious but helpless.
Although he was a player himself, he was a newbie of less than a week with a level of only 3, making him the lowest-ranking player present.
If he joined the fray, he would only be instantly killed.
If not for years of internal system experience, he wouldn’t even have qualified for the position of division chief.
“There are too few skilled people under my guidance…”
Seeing ten players all obstructed by a summoned creature without anyone being able to get free, Zhang Yang couldn’t help but sigh.
Although the higher-ups granted him the title of Chief of the K City Translocation Division, they only assigned him ten players.
Managing the city’s entire player population with just these ten was not an easy task.
While there were quite a number of ordinary team members, these normal people played a limited role in real player combat.
Just like now, even though there were dozens of them surrounding the battlefield, they could only watch ten of their player comrades battle the Werewolf without being able to lend a hand.
The only thing they could do was maintain their perimeter to prevent the battlefield from spilling over into other areas.
Right now, his only hope was for his side to take down the summoned Knight before the Werewolf.
In doing so, they would at least have a chance of stopping the Werewolf.
However, the situation had a way of turning into what one fears).
After a frantic chase, the Unicorn, despite its agility, was finally running out of strength and got caught by the Werewolf’s blade, struck right at the back.
The Unicorn howled in pain, shrinking in size rapidly until it was barely the size of a normal horse.
Its speed visibly slowed down.
As for the battle with the Knight of the Sanctuary, despite seemingly being at a disadvantage again and again, he was still hanging in there.
He could withstand for at least another ten minutes.
“Damn…”
A cold sweat trickled down Zhang Yang’s forehead as he quietly pulled out his revolver.
He was prepared for the worst: If necessary, he would order all warriors to shoot, strafing both the Werewolf and Unicorn together!
Although this would mean failing the ‘Capture the Unicorn Alive’ quest, he would at least get a Unicorn corpse, which was better than ending up with nothing!
Just as Zhang Yang made this decision, a voice came from the walkie-talkie at his waist.
“Hello, hello.
Is anyone there?”
Zhang Yang startled, unconsciously glancing around.
All his team members were present at the scene, no one was using the walkie-talkie.
Who was speaking?
“Who are you?” Zhang Yang asked as he grabbed the walkie-talkie.
“I’m Falcon.”
“Impossible!
Falcon has been confirmed dead, who are you really?” Zhang Yang’s face became dead serious instantly.
“Hehe, it’s not important who I am.
What’s important is, I’m going to tell you two pieces of information that would be very useful to you, even capable of turning the tables.”
“What information?” Perplexed, Zhang Yang involuntarily scanned the surroundings again.
The fact that the person could observe the battle here indicated that he was nearby, right?
“First, the Werewolf’s weakness is in its heart.
If you don’t strike its heart first, it will possess a recovery ability comparable to Wolverine’s. freēwēbnovel.com
All your efforts will be in vain.”
“How did you know that?” Zhang Yang asked instinctively.
If this weakness were true, it would be invaluable.
“Second, there’s a trap set under the big tree to the north.
You just need to lure the Werewolf to the trap, then you’ll naturally get an opportunity to kill it.” The person on the other end avoided his question and stated the second piece of information.
The big tree to the north…
Subconsciously, Zhang Yang looked towards the north where a conspicuous big tree stood.
However, the surrounding environment seemed ordinary with no visible indication of any traps.
“How can you prove your information is true?” Zhang Yang quickly asked.
“I don’t have to.
If you want to catch the Werewolf, your only choice is to believe me, isn’t it?”
Zhang Yang fell silent.
Indeed, they were pushed to the cliff’s edge at this point.
When someone showed them a path, even if they weren’t sure, they had to try.
“One last question, who are you?” Zhang Yang asked.
However, the only response from the other end was the sound of the communication being terminated.
Helpless, Zhang Yang realized the person did not want to reveal their identity.
However, he already had a vague suspicion.
Could this person be the one who conquered the spider nest earlier?
If he really cleared an A-rank singularity point single-handedly, then this person was indeed formidable, and his words were worth considering.
At that precise moment, the situation on the battlefield changed again.
After struggling to escape in its weakened state for a while, the Unicorn finally collapsed due to excessive blood loss.
Despite its effort to stand up, it simply couldn’t.
The Werewolf, on the other hand, was resolute.
It promptly dashed towards the unconscious Unicorn, ready with a sack in hand.
“Quick!
Fire, stop the Werewolf!” Zhang Yang shouted urgently.
“But Captain Zhang, this way we might accidentally kill the Unicorn!” A team member quickly reminded him.
“We cannot afford to care about that now!
Open fire!”
Zhang Yang bellowed, raising his revolver and leading the shooting.
The others obeyed the order and opened fire.
In an instant, a rain of bullets engulfed the Werewolf’s position, igniting a large area.
Yet, amidst the bombardment, the Werewolf deftly rolled away.
By the time it broke away from the gunfire, it had already grabbed the Unicorn’s horn and swiftly stuffed it into the sack.
Having been battered by gunfire, the Werewolf was splattered with blood, but it was healing at a rapid pace.
Zhang Yang became even more convinced of the mysterious informer’s words.
He quickly spoke into the walkie-talkie, “All team members, focus your fire, drive the Werewolf towards the big tree in the north!”
On his command, the firepower on the scene was immediately adjusted.
No matter how strong the Werewolf’s regenerative ability, it was still a mortal flesh.
It couldn’t withstand a barrage of bullets for long.
Being stuck in a hail of bullets, it instinctively fled towards the area with the least gunfire.
He reached the large tree after a run and suddenly, he felt a click under his foot.
The familiar sound of a trap activating sent a chill down the Werewolf’s spine.
That wasn’t all.
Immediately after, several sawtooth traps were triggered, all biting into his legs and anchoring him on the spot.
“Damn it!”
Realizing he had fallen into a trap, the Werewolf cursed, hurriedly raising his blade to disassemble the traps.
However, dealing with over a dozen traps, even wooden ones, was no easy task.
Moreover, the enemy didn’t give him such a chance.
“All members, aim for the heart and open fire with all you’ve got!”
The Werewolf vaguely heard the command from the distance and was terrified.
He quickly raised his blade to protect his chest.
However, this little protection was almost worth nothing.
His arm was instantly pierced by the concentrated gunfire, along with his internal organs, including the heart.
Once his heart was injured, his recovery powers also began to wane, setting off a vicious cycle.
As the last of his strength began to fade, the Werewolf instinctively wanted to activate the last statue, but he thought better of it, and instead, hit a button on a communicator by his waist.
Then, he protected the Unicorn by cradling it beneath him, crouched down, and used his flesh and blood to absorb the onslaught of the gunfire.
