Chapter 27: Savage

A notification popped into Alan's mind as he saw the beast standing a few meters in front of him, and a look of shock flashed across his face.

[Night Wolf]

[Type: Magical Beast]

[Rank: D]

[Remarks: It's a very, very Savage Creature]

Alan's facial expression turned solemn as he stared at the beast opposite him. Though he had fought much stronger and more terrifying creatures before, the problem was that his current stats were still meager, incomparable to his previous self.

Based on his years of experience analyzing creatures and their abilities, Alan managed to guess the type of beast he was facing.

Faced with such a formidable opponent, fighting in a confined space was not an option. He quickly turned to the other two and said,

"I'll lure the creature away. Can you two handle the rest?"

The exhausted football player hesitated, but Milo confidently replied, "Yes, leave them to us."

A pack of a dozen gray wolves entered the room. It wouldn't be an easy task for the two of them to fight all twelve wolves simultaneously, especially with the barricade already burnt. It might even be more challenging than fighting the Alpha wolf, but Alan had to have faith in their abilities if they wanted to survive.

"Now!"

While Alan rushed through the pack of bloodthirsty wolves, Milo swung his hammer fiercely, striking the wolves that tried to catch up to Alan, even allowing himself to be bitten by those charging at him. The man literally put his body on the line to assist Alan.

Alan shot forward at breakneck speed, leaving the others behind and heading straight for the enormous black wolf that was just about to enter the room.

ROOAAAARRRR—

The three-meter tall creature quickly pounced on him. Alan immediately dropped his body and slid across the ground, simultaneously brandishing his knife upwards and carving a cut at the creature's gut.

[Slash: Inflicts 15 Damage]

As drops of blood fell onto his body, Alan's figure continued to slide across the snow, past the giant wolf. He succeeded in escaping from the room and also inflicting a slight wound on the creature.

"Come here, you foul beast! Follow me!"

To fully get the beast's attention, Alan took out his newly acquired weapon. He pulled out the [Glock 17] held the gun firmly in his hand, aimed and pulled the trigger down.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

With enough experience using guns in his previous game, Alan manages to hit the beast all perfectly.

[Shooting: Inflicts 52 damage]

[Shooting: Inflicts 54 damage]

[Shooting: Lethal Attack. Inflicts 70 damage]

It was shot with the 50% damage bonus of his [Small weapon (Expert)] Status, but it appears the beast has a high defense making the number of damage not as much as he expected. The third one hit at its head and manage to make the beast roar furiously, forcing it to once again breathed freezing air towards him.

Alan quickly rolled to dodge, unwilling to let it touch him.

As soon as he stood up, the wolf was already standing before him, its colossal paw swinging at him. With no time to dodge, Alan could only grit his teeth and brace himself to receive the attack.

BAM!

A piercing pain wrecked through his body as the wolf's sharp claws tore through and sent him hurtling through the air for 10 meters, letting go of the gun in his hand.

[Impact: Claws inflict 36 Damage]

"Uargh!"

Alan groaned as excruciating pain spread from his chest to the rest of his body. It seemed that the creature was still too powerful of an opponent for him at the moment. Just four blows from the creature would send him into the abyss, and if he were ever bitten by those gigantic fangs, he would most likely depart for the underworld without having the chance to say any final words.

As soon as he got up, he went to look for the gun, unfortunately, it drop near teh wolf hence he swiftly deiced to do the next best thing. Alan quickly used [Medicated Gauze] and took out a [Chocolate] before quickly eating it up. It had been more than 15 minutes since he had eaten the first one.

[Healing: 49 HP Recovered in 2 minutes]

[Healing: 10 HP and 35% stamina generation in 15 minutes]

A player's consumption was restricted, allowing them to only consume one food and one medication in the same period of time. Therefore, Alan had to be careful and ensure his stamina and health didn't drop too quickly.

Staring at the beast, he beamed a smile and mockingly said, "Is that the best you can do?"

ROAARRRR!!

The enormous beast with fur as dark as night lunged at Alan again, cracking the floor as its four feet stomped on. Despite the pain still plaguing his body, Alan maintained his composure and calmly watched as the creature drew nearer.

Just before the creature's claws reached him and its heavy body collided with his, Alan instantly threw his body to the side, causing the beast to miss.

He then ran as fast as he could across the street, and as expected, seeing his prey fleeing, the wolf quickly gave chase.

Knowing that the beast was right behind him, Alan didn't slow down one bit and continued to lure it away.

Alan jumped through the glass door of the office building in front and continued running, using the tables and cabinets to hinder the creatures, which were definitely faster than him.

He again leaped through the glass on the other side of the building, rolling and quickly hiding behind a car half-submerged in ice.

A second later, the huge wolf broke through the glass and continued to leap over the car, flying past above his head.

HOWWLLL!!!

The creature slowly turned its body around, glaring at what appeared to be a cornered Alan as it bared its sharp fangs.

The beast gave a menacing growl, its teeth ready to tear its prey to pieces. However, unbeknownst to it, Alan had prepared something behind his back.

As soon as the beast finally took action, Alan threw down what he had been hiding. A [Liquor Bottle] swiftly flew through the air and landed on the wolf's body.

PRAANKKK!!!

Liquid drenched the wolf's body as the glass bottle shattered. The sweet and distinct aroma of alcohol wafted in the air. While the beast was startled by the unexpected toss, Alan had something else prepared.

He held a [Lighter] in his right hand, while a bottle of hairspray could be seen in his other.

A smirk adorned his face as he stared at the three-meter tall creature in front of him.

"Taste my Homemade Flamethrower."

Lighting the lighter and positioning it in front of the hairspray nozzle, a fire burst forth at the wolf. With flammable liquid all over it, the creature quickly ignited in flames.

ROOOAAAAARRRRR!!!!!

[Burning: Inflicts 10 damage per second]
