In an instant, the lights of eight searchlights were all shining in one place.
"Where?" Du Hong asked doubtfully.
There were only a few crooked-necked trees in the illuminated area, with vines growing wildly around them, as if they were covered in lush new clothes, but other than that, there was no sign of any living things.
At this time, Xiao Zhao's body was almost pressed against Xu Xian's body, and his body could not stop trembling: "There really was a black shadow passing by from there, I didn't lie to you!"
No one questioned Xiao Zhao's words, but they did not find anything unusual.
Chen Nan shined the searchlight forward and said vigilantly: "There are still one or two hundred meters to go to the signal tower. Everyone, speed up a little bit and be careful around you."
The sound of rapid footsteps sounded, and everyone sped up. Xiao Zhao, who was squeezed in the middle, held the tool box in both hands and did not bother to look at the surrounding scene. He always made sure that he was surrounded by everyone.
As they hurried on, they arrived at the signal tower in a short time, and several of them subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sure enough, something happened to the engineer."
Xu Xian saw the toolboxes scattered beside the signal tower at a glance, but there were no engineers around.
"There's blood here."
Chen Nan squatted down next to the tool box, stretched out his hand and rubbed the blood spots on the ground. There was no temperature and was even a little dry. It was obvious that the incident that happened here had happened for some time.
He quickly stood up and said to a few people around him: "Brothers, watch your surroundings. Xiao Zhao, climb up and see what's going on at the signal tower."
Xiao Zhao raised his head and glanced at the top of the signal tower, and said with a grimace: "Captain Chen, please don't leave. You must wait for me to come down..."
"Don't worry, we won't leave before you come down." Chen Nan patted his arm: "Hurry up, we'll go back to the manor after repairing it."
"Okay, I...I'm going up."
After receiving Chen Nan's assurance, Xiao Zhao picked up his toolbox, took protective measures, and began to climb up the signal tower.
Compared with the ground, Xiao Zhao actually wanted to climb to the signal tower. In his opinion, if there was danger around him, he would be much safer staying on the high signal tower than Chen Nan and the others below.
When Xiao Zhao went up, Chen Nan held the searchlight in his left hand and held the dagger in his right hand. He encouraged Xu Xian and others: "Brothers, cheer up. When the signal tower is repaired, we can attack people, no matter what kind of beast they are."
Let’s catch the person we killed and roast him tomorrow!”
Perhaps his morale was boosted by Chen Nan's words, Liu Dong smiled and said: "Brother Nan, I've been getting angry these days, and I've been constipated for a few days, so I can't eat meat."
Chen Nan rolled her eyes at him angrily: "Stop smiling, and look around you! You don't want the shit you pooped last time to be your last shit, right?"
Liu Dong: "..."
...
Counting the time, Xiao Zhao had already climbed to the top of the tower, and Xu found that the seven of them were standing quietly at the bottom of the signal tower, with the searchlight light shining back and forth on every corner of the surrounding area.
Compared with the surrounding darkness, the light from the searchlight was insignificant. Such a quiet and tense environment made Xu Xian and others feel a little depressed.
"Captain Chen, I...I want to pee."
I don't know how much time passed, but Du Hong suddenly crossed his legs and said nervously.
Chen Nan frowned and glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "Be patient, wait until Xiao Zhao repairs the signal tower and returns to the manor!"
"I can't hold it back..." Du Hong was about to continue, but when he saw Chen Nan's face, he swallowed the last half of his sentence.
Liu Quan turned his head and glanced at Du Hong, and said with a smile: "Just bear with it. I've already been addicted to smoking, so why don't you bear with it?"
"Can it be the same?" Du Hong muttered and said nothing more. While paying attention to the movements around him, he fought against his own biological impulses.
During their conversation, Xu Xian kept staring in the direction in front of him, but just when he calmed down, Du Hong's deliberately low and trembling voice suddenly came from his right.
"Chen... Captain Chen, look what that is..."
Du Hong, who was looking around, suddenly froze and stared fixedly in front of him.
An unpleasant thought arose in his mind, and Xu Xian quickly looked towards the spot illuminated by the searchlight in Du Hong's hand.
I saw only the edge of the mountain illuminated by the searchlight, and a ferocious wolf head exposed on the back slope.
As everyone looked, the wolf no longer concealed its figure and walked out directly from the back slope, completely exposing its entire body to everyone's eyes.
"Mountain... mountain wolf, this is the mountain wolf?!"
After seeing the creature opposite him clearly, Liu Quan lost his previous calm look and his expression immediately became tense.
"Why is it so big?"
Xu Xian had seen mountain wolves before. He was lucky enough to see one half a month ago when he went down the mountain with the security team to do some shopping.
However, the mountain wolf opposite was quite different from what he had in mind. First of all, the size. The guy opposite was almost two meters long from head to tail, which was completely beyond his understanding.
In addition, the mountain wolf's eyes glowed red under the light, and two long pointed teeth were exposed next to its mouth, with scarlet stains clearly visible on the teeth.
Not only is this guy capable of biting someone's neck off with one bite, but he would probably faint if he saw it in the dark.
After Chen Nan and others saw the appearance of the mountain wolf clearly, they all either exclaimed or took a breath, and everyone tensed up.
"Brothers, prepare to fight to the death. Whether we eat its flesh or it eats our flesh will depend on its performance." Chen Nan raised the dagger and said with a dry throat.
Thinking of the holes in the manor's barbed wire fence, Xu Xian quickly looked at the mountain wolf's paws.
The next moment, his right hand couldn't help but tighten the electric baton in his hand.
This mountain wolf actually has long sharp claws sprouting from the front of its claws, which are very similar to the sharp claws of the protagonist of the ancient movie "Wolverine" decades ago!
No wonder! No wonder the barbed wire fence seemed to have been cut with a sharp weapon. No wonder the wound on the injured man’s thigh was so flat.
The moment he saw the mountain wolf's claws, Xu Xian figured it all out.
'Can this enlarged and armed version of the mountain wolf be dealt with by ordinary people?'
Thinking of this, Xu Xian looked at the electric baton in his hand, then turned to Du Hong and said, "Brother Hong, can you let me use your dagger?"
Although Du Hong was scared, he still shook his head decisively: "Xiao Xu, you are hiding behind Brother Hong. Such a big guy is not something that a young man like you can deal with."
"I can......"
Before Xu Xian could finish speaking, a low beast roar suddenly came from another direction.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Dong exclaimed: "No, there is a second mountain wolf!"
After the words fell, on the other side, the security guard who, like Xu Xian, had not received the dagger, held an electric baton and faced forward, saying dryly: "Three... three, there is one in front of me...
....”
Three huge mountain wolves!
Although Xu found that their side had the advantage in terms of numbers, in terms of combat power, there was no guarantee that they could deal with three 'enhanced version' mountain wolves with so many people.
Chen Nan's heart sank completely. When he saw three mountain wolves approaching slowly from different directions, he said decisively: "Brothers, you can't escape by running, so try your best!" This chapter has been completed!
