Chapter 9: 1 vs 3! The Wolf's Battle!

Wang Yu was very excited to reach this conclusion. While killing the lone Bloodthirsty Wolves on the side of the road, he slowly made his way deeper into the Wolf Mountain, following the system map. His goal was simple: if this was a special type of monster, then under the same attributes, how could there be such a significant difference between individuals? What if the players also had such abilities? Wang Yu began to imagine himself dodging all attacks without changing his expression or heart rate amidst a large group of monsters, then slaughtering them all...

Of course, whenever he daydreamed, something always happened... Suddenly, he heard a wolf howl from the forest beside the mountain path, followed by the sounds of a fight. Wang Yu, hearing the sounds, remained cautious and did not immediately rush to the source. Instead, he carefully observed the movements of the nearby wolves, carefully avoiding their attack range, and then hid behind a tree to observe the situation. Since no wolves had died nearby, he didn't have to worry about new wolves spawning behind him. This tree's position was in a blind spot of the wolves' attack range!

The tree also blocked his view, so he wouldn't become a target for the Bloodthirsty Wolves or other wolves. Only in absolute safety did Wang Yu begin to observe the scene. However, with just one glance, he couldn't take his eyes off it...

It appeared! His heart began to beat irregularly, and his eyes focused on the silver name...

At the same time, Wang Yu also saw the opponent of the Bloodthirsty Wolf with the silver name. It was a team of three players, all wearing beginner gear and not the rabbit fur boots, indicating they hadn't completed the rabbit quest. They were likely a group of players who were troubled by the competition for monsters. Wang Yu quickly scanned the team's setup. All three players already had weapons, suggesting they had entered the game relatively early. One used an axe, one used a sword, and the other used a bow.

Dealing with a single wolf was usually an easy task for three players, so they didn't take it seriously. The player with the bow just watched the fight from a distance, not intending to help. He thought it was too easy for the two warriors, who focused on strength and constitution, to handle a single wolf. However, he soon realized something was wrong. The fight was taking too long! He still thought they were just playing around, as the wolf was still lively despite the numerous attacks. He told them, "Stop playing around, quickly finish it off, and focus on leveling up."

While he was talking, the two players fighting the wolf were also frustrated. Although their agility was not high, they mainly focused on strength and constitution, giving them good attack and defense. Their hit rate was usually decent, but now every attack missed. The wolf dodged every single one, and the "miss" messages kept appearing. Fortunately, the wolf's attacks didn't hurt much, only dealing about 3 points of damage. This turned into a war of attrition, and they couldn't complain, as they had just met and formed the team for leveling up. They didn't want to ask for help from the bow user, so they kept attacking the wolf, watching the "miss" messages appear...

As time passed, the bow user also realized something was wrong. He heard a wolf howl, and in the moment of confusion, the player with the axe turned into white light? He had been killed by the wolf? There was something wrong with the wolf! This thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately started attacking, shooting an arrow at the wolf. The arrow flew quickly, and the wolf, sensing the danger, instinctively jumped back to dodge...

Seeing the "miss" message, the bow user was stunned for five seconds before he understood what had happened. He knew he had added 9 points to agility, and although his damage output was low, he had never missed. If the wolf could make his attacks miss, it was likely that the previous two players' attacks had all missed, which explained why they couldn't defeat the wolf...

At the same time, they noticed the wolf's name was silver, giving them a clue. The bow user said to his remaining teammate, "That's not an ordinary wolf. Try to hold it off, and I'll handle the attacks. My agility is high, so let's treat it like a last resort and see if we can damage its health! If we can, it will be easier!"

"Alright, let's do it!" Even in the game, the survival instinct was strong, and the teammate with the sword agreed without hesitation.

The bow user was smart. He noticed the wolf dodged only when he didn't make any other movements. A sudden idea came to him, and he shouted to his teammate, "Attack it once!" His teammate, though confused about why the bow user wanted him to make a useless attack, complied. As expected, it was a "miss"!

This is it! Wang Yu, watching from the side, understood the bow user's intention. Just as I, Wang Yu, had predicted, the arrow flew accurately towards the wolf as it dodged! "Success! The wolf's defense is low. If we repeat this a few times, we can kill it!" The bow user, seeing the damage, excitedly informed his teammate, who now understood his plan...

Their goal now was to repeat the same action! The arrows successfully hit the wolf's health as it dodged, and they gradually saw the light of victory. If someone had told them earlier that they would need to use a boss-fighting strategy against a level 3 monster, they would have laughed. But now, that was the reality...

On the other side, Wang Yu watched the battle, slightly frowning. He didn't want the wolf to be killed by such a cheap method. Watching the wolf's agile and graceful movements, like a dancer, he thought, isn't that how an assassin should fight? Thus, Wang Yu had a strong desire to fight like the wolf!
