Chapter 33

"Seems like there's no way out, meow!"

After carefully observing the surroundings, Wenlong came to this conclusion.

"Is it really a matter of fighting to the death? If I were still in my human form or if I still had those top-tier equipment from the game, dealing with these stupid pigs would be a piece of cake, meow! Unfortunately... now it's like a cat being bullied by dogs in a peaceful place, meow!"

While thinking this, Wenlong continued to observe his surroundings, trying to find a less tight gap in this tight encirclement to break through.

However, disappointingly, there were no obvious weaknesses in this encirclement.

"Then..."

Just as Wenlong had given up and was preparing to fight to the death, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Mr. Cat! I... I'm here!"

"This clumsy woman... why did she come back again, meow!"

Wenlong looked in the direction of the voice and saw Catherine running over with a giant bone sword in her hand.

Because someone suddenly approached from the outside of the encirclement, these wild boars were a bit panicked, especially when they saw the sharp giant bone sword in Catherine's hand, which made them feel even more threatened.

Soon, one of the wild boars, seemingly following the instructions of the wild boar king, broke away from the original defensive circle and charged toward Catherine's position.

"Mr. Cat, I won't let you down..."

Seeing the wild boar charging over, Catherine muttered to herself, got into a defensive stance, and waited for the wild boar's charge.

Everything was like a well-rehearsed script. Catherine got into position and waited for the wild boar to charge at her. Then she adjusted her direction, accurately blocking the wild boar's sharp tusks with the flat of her sword, and used her strength to stop the wild boar in its tracks.

"Bang!" At the same time as the collision sound, Catherine suddenly pushed forward with all her might, knocking the wild boar, which had lost its balance due to the impact, to the ground.

Then, as the unfortunate wild boar struggled to get back up, Catherine raised her giant bone sword high and shouted, "Aaaah!"

"This clumsy woman, is she going to make the same mistake again? Her movements are so slow, and the arc of her swing is so large. Why is she shouting so loudly? By the time she swings her sword, the wild boar will have already gotten up and run away, meow!"

Seeing this, Wenlong couldn't help but worry for Catherine. He knew that if this strike missed, there was a high chance of a counterattack, and the situation could become unpredictable.

However, Wenlong soon realized that Catherine was not just repeating her previous mistake. As she raised her giant bone sword, Wenlong noticed that her sword-holding posture was different from before! When Catherine shouted and brought her sword down, Wenlong finally understood her true intention!

This time, Catherine's giant bone sword was not "slashing" down, but rather "slapping" was a more appropriate description! Because Catherine did not aim the blade at the wild boar on the ground, but unexpectedly aimed the broad side of the sword at the wild boar's body!

If it had to be described, it was like using a flyswatter to hit a fly instead of a knife. The hit rate of a flyswatter is higher than that of a knife, not because the person using the flyswatter is more agile, but mainly because the flyswatter has a larger area, causing a larger area of damage!

Catherine used this principle. Knowing that if she slashed at the wild boar like a normal person, she might miss, but if she turned the sword around and used the broad side to slap the wild boar...

This time, Catherine did not miss. Although it was not perfect, her immense strength compensated for her lack of technique, and the destructive power of the broad giant bone sword was enough to cause fatal damage even if it did not hit a vital point!

As a result, despite the wild boar struggling and moving half a meter away, Catherine's sword still hit its hind leg. Wenlong saw a mixture of blood, muscle, fur, and bone splatter out. Upon closer inspection, the wild boar's thigh had been completely turned into a pulp from the root.

Losing its hind leg, the wild boar, even if it did not die immediately, could not stand up again. It could only struggle in its death throes while a large amount of blood flowed out of its body.

"Meow, this is just insane!"

Wenlong couldn't help but comment.

"But this strange attack method is truly unheard of... I don't know whether to scold her or praise her, meow!" Then Wenlong held his forehead and muttered to himself.

On the other side, Catherine, who had just taken down a wild boar, shouted excitedly.

"Mr. Cat, I did it, I did it!"

"Don't be too happy yet, there are more troublesome ones coming. You should run! Meow!"

Catherine's actions had undoubtedly angered the herd. As Wenlong spoke, more wild boars were charging toward Catherine's position.

Only after Wenlong's reminder did Catherine realize the situation. Seeing three wild boars charging at her, Catherine had no choice but to put away her sword and run!

One, two, three, a total of three wild boars, which was beyond Catherine's ability to handle. Although Wenlong wanted to help Catherine, he was blocked by the wild boar king and the remaining two wild boars, making it impossible to provide assistance. So Wenlong knew that the best choice now was for Catherine to run.

"Only the wild boar king and two wild boars left. No matter what, the situation is much better than before. If I can't handle this, what kind of man am I, meow!"

Seeing only the wild boar king and two wild boars blocking his path, Wenlong knew the opportunity had come. Without hesitation, he suddenly exerted his strength, quickly moved his body, and began to launch an attack!

On the other side, the wild boar king also charged over with its two subordinates, forming a pincer attack, leaving Wenlong no room to dodge. Moreover, there were no trees around for him to climb, so he couldn't use the same strategy of climbing a tree to avoid them!
