Chapter 835: Chapter 840: One Man Holding the Pass
Zhou Yan was now positioned almost blocking the only path into the small cavern, with a cliff over ten meters high on one side and a steep stone wall about ten meters on the other.
If the ten wolf dogs outside were to come in, they must pass through this rugged road that was just over half a meter wide.
Led by two Advanced Soldier Kings, the ten wolf dogs glared fiercely at Zhou Yan who had stepped out, their eyes wishing to tear her to pieces!
They didn’t care that she was a top-tier beauty!
In their eyes, this group of inexplicable humans was allied with the one who had killed their leader and most of their companions before.
So now, they wanted to shred every human they could see to pieces.
In the next moment, under the command of two leading wolf dogs, two Medium Soldier King wolf dogs howled and sprinted towards Zhou Yan at lightning speed.
Yet Zhou Yan’s gaze sharpened; she was not intimidated by these wolf dogs nor did she have any intention to retreat or evade.
She was well aware that when brave people meet in narrow paths, the winner is courageous. Compared to strength, the difference isn’t hugely significant.
At this moment, she raised her hand and very adeptly fired two shots forward, hitting one wolf dog on the forehead and another on the chest.
Wolf dogs at this level of strength would sense danger the moment Zhou Yan fired.
However, in such a narrow space, they couldn’t fully evade, and although hit on the forehead and chest, they instinctively avoided vital points.
Thus, the two wolf dogs were only partially injured, but most of their combat power remained intact.
Before they could counterattack, Zhou Yan unexpectedly dashed forward and, without any hesitation, punched the wolf dog shot in the forehead.
The other wolf dog, intimidated by Zhou Yan’s aura and the gun in her hand, whimpered and cowardly turned to run back.
After all, the impression from the previous old Taoist was incredibly terrifying!
Could this woman in front be just as formidable?
At this moment, the wolf dog fully struck by Zhou Yan staggered under the immense force, and following Zhou Yan’s quick kick, it inevitably fell off the cliff.
A few seconds later, a loud "boom" came from below, followed by silence!
Needless to say, even an uninjured wolf dog would be surely killed from such a fall down the high cliff.
Zhou Yan, holding strong, supported herself against the steep wall, gasping heavily.
Evidently, the recent explosive actions consumed a lot of her energy.
Those were, after all, two Medium Soldier King wolf dogs, whose strength far exceeded ordinary Medium Soldier Kings, while she had only advanced a few hours before as a Primary Soldier King.
In every aspect, their strength differed significantly.
If Zhou Yan were outside, even with the unfamiliar gun in the wolf dogs’ eyes, she wouldn’t have the slightest chance to achieve this!
The wolf dog hit in the chest retreated to its companions’ side, where one of the leading wolf dogs angrily roared at it.
Clearly, it was furious about its retreat without regard for its companion.
However, what concerned them most was the chest wound of that wolf dog, though not lethal, they could see that the thing in the human’s hand was extraordinarily potent!
Because the speed was such that even they couldn’t see it clearly.
Moreover, they could perceive that the wound on their companion’s chest was not too severe but also not minor; approximately half of its strength was lost.
Losing strength to that extent is very dangerous in the law of the jungle.
At this moment, the remaining eight uninjured wolf dogs were very wary of the object in the hands of that human.
They weren’t overly concerned about her strength.
"Awooo!" One of the leading wolf dogs howled to two nearby wolf dogs and nudged its head towards Zhou Yan.
The meaning was clear: get rid of that human.
The two wolf dogs shrank back two steps, seemingly reluctant, as they had seen their companions’ situation earlier.
But another Advanced Soldier King wolf dog circled behind them, snapped fiercely, almost ready to bite.
At this stage, the two wolf dogs had no choice, and their ferocious nature was triggered.
Of course, they dared only to vent their anger on the human ahead!
So next, they rushed towards Zhou Yan like the previous two companions.
Zhou Yan, panting heavily, snorted coldly, her eyes flashing sharply, firing two more shots at the wolf dogs, which hit them again, though they were slightly more aware of Zhou Yan’s gun this time.
As a result, their injuries were lighter than the previous two.
Meanwhile, they didn’t panic; the moment they were hit, they paused briefly and continued to charge.
The distance between them was less than three meters now.
It seemed at any moment, Zhou Yan would be at their mercy.
Just then, two gunshots rang out timely!
"Bang, bang!"
The sound of bullets entering flesh was heard by the distant wolf dogs!
The recently shot wolf dog trembled involuntarily.
Those two wolf dogs, ignoring everything, turned to flee.
In such proximity and already having been shot twice, how could Zhou Yan let go of this chance?
With a "swish," she reached out a hand, grabbed the slower wolf dog, and with a loud shout, exploded with immense strength in the shortest time and hurled the wolf dog down the cliff.
And another "boom" echoed!
The ten wolf dogs, and now two were dead, two severely injured.
Only the two leading wolf dogs remained unscathed, with the strength of Advanced Soldier Kings, and four Medium Soldier King wolf dogs.
That this outcome happened, even Zhou Yan herself hadn’t expected that she, a Primary Soldier King, could achieve this!
If this were told to others, they wouldn’t believe it whatsoever!
She wasn’t Lin Xi!
Nevertheless, at this moment, the previous actions had depleted most of her energy, and she distinctly felt some fatigue and inability!
Meanwhile, the gun held in her hand, which held fifteen rounds, was left with only nine now!
Although nine rounds seemed a lot, and six rounds were used against four wolf dogs, was there hope of winning?
But the reality was not so!
In her current physical and mental state, at least five rounds were needed to push back the next attack!
Moreover, the two Advanced Soldier King wolf dogs were now still at their peak state, she felt that fifteen rounds likely weren’t enough against their level!
Furthermore, in their presence, she at most had the chance to fire four shots!
Next moment, the remaining four Medium Soldier King wolf dogs, not threatened by the two leaders, with two hurriedly charged at Zhou Yan.
Because they knew they couldn’t escape this disaster!
Zhou Yan again forced herself to gather energy and first fired four continuous shots at the two charging wolf dogs!
But due to declining speed and accuracy resulting from her physical and mental state, each wolf dog was hit only once.
During their brief pause when hit, Zhou Yan fired another two shots, this time striking because their maneuvering speed was slower due to injuries.
At this stage, the two wolf dogs turned and fled!
After all, they saw their companions had done the same before. Moreover, they were indeed severely injured; the leader surely wouldn’t say much about it.
This time, Zhou Yan didn’t pursue but fired two more shots, hitting one in the left leg and another on the head.
The wolf dog hit in the head died instantly!
And the one hit in the left leg, as it rushed, its body suddenly lost balance and fell off the cliff.
At this stage, four wolf dogs had died; the two leading ones outside, along with two injured and two uninjured wolf dogs, witnessed everything clearly, the two leaders hesitated to order another attack, seemingly caught in a dilemma!
At that moment, Zhou Yan raised her pistol and fired a shot into the sky, the loud sound startling the two wolf dogs to shiver, then she provocatively looked at the strongest two wolf dogs!
As if saying, come on, if you’re not afraid of death, come!
