Since they had decided to fight, they couldn’t just wait for the wolves to destroy the building.
Si Tu Yu said, “Get ready. We’ll find a chance to kill one of the Level 2 wolves first. We must kill it in one strike. After that, no matter if it’s dead or not, we leave immediately.”
Mo Han nodded, and the two moved closer to where the wolves were attacking.
Soon, the three wolves attacked again. The Level 3 wolf smashed a hole in the wall with its head, then pulled back. Right after that, the two Level 2 wolves also crashed their heads into the building.
“Now! ” Si Tu Yu shouted.
They attacked with full power. Wind’s blades and ice’s blades cut toward one wolf’s neck—and successfully cut off its head. The wolf died instantly without even making a sound.
After succeeding, they immediately retreated and broke out through the other side of the building.
Not long after they escaped, the floor they were on was completely burned by the wolf leader’s fire. They quickly ran into another building.
The wolf leader was furious. This time, it didn’t ram the building again. Instead, it shot fireballs at the base of the building.
Mo Han and Si Tu Yu looked at each other and understood. The wolf had some intelligence, but not enough. It was wasting its energy. Once it ran out, that would be their chance.
Every time a building was destroyed, they escaped to another one. They avoided facing the wolf directly, while the remaining Level 2 wolf couldn’t stop them.
The wolf leader chased them angrily, constantly shooting fireballs.
But it was only a Level 3 fire-type wolf. Its energy was limited—and animals had less energy than humans of the same level. It couldn’t keep wasting power like this.
Finally, when the wolf opened its mouth and only produced a small spark, Mo Han and Si Tu Yu knew—it was time.
The wolf was still roaring and trying to attack, not noticing they had quietly approached.
By the time it realized, it was too late.
They rushed past the wolf and attacked the remaining Level 2 wolf. The wolf panicked and tried to escape, but they used their strongest attacks.
This time, the wolf barely avoided a fatal hit and survived. Terrified, it ran away without looking back.
The wolf leader became completely enraged. These weaker humans had mocked it again and again and even killed its kind right in front of it.
It roared and charged at them.
Even without its powers, it was still a Level 3 beast. Mo Han and Si Tu Yu stayed extremely careful.
Mo Han had some basic knowledge of anatomy—but only for humans, not wolves. Still, he aimed for the neck. His ice blades kept cutting the wolf’s throat.
They didn’t fight head-on. Instead, they kept moving and attacking, leaving wound after wound.
As the wolf lost more blood, its movements became slower.
Finally, it collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily, staring at them with hatred and unwillingness.
Even then, Mo Han and Si Tu Yu didn’t relax. It might be pretending.
The wolf leader felt unwilling to die to weaker humans. Even if it died, it wouldn’t let them live easily.
With a final decision, it suddenly raised its head and shot one last fireball at Mo Han.
Mo Han’s face changed. The fireball was too fast. He barely managed to create a few ice shields—but they were too weak.
As the fireball broke through his shields, Mo Han felt what Zhou Wu once felt facing the giant snake.
He closed his eyes and waited for death.
Maybe… if he died, he could go back.
“I’ll repay my debt now.”
A low voice sounded in his ear.
Mo Han suddenly felt himself pulled into a strong embrace.
He opened his eyes in shock.
“Si Tu Yu! Are you crazy?! Let go of me! ”
Before he could finish, the fireball hit them and sent them flying.
They crashed heavily onto the ground. The impact almost knocked Mo Han unconscious.
Ignoring the pain, he quickly got up.
“Si Tu Yu! Are you okay?! ”
For the first time since coming to this world, Mo Han felt true panic.
Si Tu Yu didn’t respond. He had already fainted.
Although he used his wind power to block the fireball, it wasn’t enough. The attack was still strong enough to kill him.
“You can’t die… If you die, I’ll never forgive myself! ” Mo Han said.
In both his lives, this was the first time someone had risked their life to save him.
Even if it were to repay a favor, Mo Han could not accept this.
“Wait… ability! ”
Mo Han suddenly remembered something.
In the original story, he had a healing ability.
He hadn’t awakened it yet, but he had the potential.
If he forced an awakening now, maybe he could gain healing power.
But awakening abilities wasn’t easy.
Most people only awaken abilities during life-and-death situations.
There was another way—absorbing the core of zombies or mutant creatures.
Mo Han chose this method.
There were mutant wolf cores right here.
But there was a problem—he already had an ability.
If he absorbed a core now, it would only strengthen his current power.
So there was only one way—
Destroy his current ability.
No matter what, he couldn’t let Si Tu Yu die.
After making his decision, Mo Han walked toward the wolf’s corpse.
