Boom!~
After closing her eyes in despair, Li Mubing suddenly heard a heavy thud and a wail. Apart from the strong stench, she did not feel the pain of sharp claws tearing into her body.
Immediately after, there was a scream from her sister.
She opened her eyes in confusion, her eyes widening in disbelief.
At some point, a light barrier had appeared in front of Li Mubing, almost touching her by just a few centimeters. It was now slowly retreating, stopping more than a foot away, perfectly separating her from the several giant wolves.
The light barrier caught Li Mubing's attention. The light membrane, faintly glowing white, was adorned with many strange patterns, seemingly containing profound principles.
What on earth is this?
Li Mubing could not explain what she saw with her current knowledge.
Just a moment ago, several giant wolves that had clearly collided with the light barrier were repelled and struggled to get up, emitting a series of fearful whines. They looked at the light barrier with fear and did not dare to attack again.
Another sound of breaking and swaying trees came, and the tree where Li Muxin was standing finally could not withstand the wolves' impact and slowly fell down.
"Ah!~"
Li Muxin, who was focused on her sister, forgot to grab the tree trunk to balance herself and was thrown out.
Seeing her about to fall and hit the ground with a scream, the hunting wolves let out fierce howls, and one of them suddenly pounced.
Boom! A black shadow shot from afar and collided fiercely with the three-striped ice fang wolf.
With a terrifying crack, the unfortunate giant wolf was thrown like a rag doll, landing far away in the forest, never to be heard from again.
The black shadow continued its momentum, reaching out with both hands to steadily catch the falling Li Muxin. He sank into a horse stance, deftly dissipating all the impact.
As if suddenly frightened, the other giant wolves reflexively fled dozens of meters, emitting howls filled with panic and fear, their previous ferocity and cruelty completely gone.
Li Muxin, held in a warm embrace, looked at the man who had caught her in a textbook princess carry, his strong and steady hands supporting her legs and under her arms.
A blush slowly crept up her cheeks, despite the military camouflage. She knew she must be blushing fiercely. She had never been held by a man like this before, but a deep sense of security and reassurance welled up inside her.
It seemed that as long as this man was by her side, the danger of these giant wolves was reduced to that of Chihuahuas.
"Hello, Major Li Muxin."
"Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Lin Mo, can, can you put me down?"
"As you wish!"
At the most critical moment, the man who appeared like a god of war now acted like a gentleman. He carried her a few steps and gently placed Li Muxin beside her sister Li Mubing.
With a wave of his hand, the magical light barrier suddenly expanded, like an inverted bowl, enveloping both of them.
It was this barrier that had protected Li Mubing from the wolves' attack just now.
Even if they were slow to react, the twin sisters had already realized that this powerful defensive barrier must have a mysterious connection to Lieutenant Colonel Lin Mo.
A group of low-level monsters, numbering less than a hundred, was naturally no threat to Lin Mo. He drew the special survival knife from his leg and assumed a starting stance, facing the three-striped ice fang wolves.
At least, dinner was secured!
The giant wolves finally realized that they were facing only one person, and their arrogance flared up again.
Having their prey snatched away was an intolerable provocation for any wild beast or monster.
More than a dozen three-striped ice fang wolves slowly surrounded Lin Mo, staring at him with predatory eyes, baring their white fangs and teeth, and growling threateningly, as if ready to tear him to pieces at any moment.
Seeing Lin Mo face the wolf pack alone, Li Mubing, worried, said, "Sister, will he be okay?"
If it were before, she would have ignored him completely. But now, since he had saved her without any grudge, she couldn't act as if she didn't care.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine. These wolves are nothing to him."
Li Muxin, as the twin sister, had an inexplicable confidence in Lin Mo's combat ability.
As a member of the "Dark Night" special operations team composed of elite soldiers, even the ace pilots who dominated the skies were also top-tier warriors on the ground.
Even the more terrifying beasts she had seen on Socotra Island were easily slaughtered by him.
A sudden gust of wind from behind, a three-striped ice fang wolf leaped from behind Lin Mo, roaring and aiming for his neck with its sharp white teeth.
As if he had eyes in the back of his head, he suddenly bent and sidestepped, taking a small step back, and swung the special survival knife upward.
Blood splattered as the light battle aura surged into the special survival knife, igniting a white flame at the blade's edge, effortlessly slicing open the three-striped ice fang wolf's chest and abdomen, the blade embedding itself completely.
The heavily wounded giant wolf, unable to land properly, collapsed with its entrails spilling out, a wound over a meter long appearing on its lower abdomen in an instant.
The stench of wolf blood sprayed out, staining the nearby plants red. The wolf, drained of strength, let out a few weak whines and died on the spot.
Defensive counterattacks were not the style of an air knight.
Attack, attack, and attack again, maximizing offensive power to the point of replacing defense—this was the fierce and arrogant style of an air knight.
Lin Mo launched himself without hesitation, charging into the wolf pack and smashing a powerful elbow into the head of a three-striped ice fang wolf. The wolf, with a body like a water buffalo, was thrown out and crashed into a tree, breaking it on impact.
A brutally powerful elbow strike!
The giant wolf never got up again.
Lin Mo continued his relentless assault without any hesitation, his waist, legs, and shoulders moving as one, unleashing a powerful force that collided with the back of another three-striped ice fang wolf.
The bone-cracking sound was as loud as fireworks. The giant wolf, with a bizarrely deformed back, flew out, bleeding from all seven orifices, and even knocked over another wolf.
The weakness of a strong head and legs but a weak waist seemed to apply to these ferocious three-striped ice fang wolves as well.
