Chapter 84 Desert Wolf
Nangong Jingming continued to ponder his response strategy. If they did encounter a pack of desert wolves, they would need to remain calm, utilize their weapons and the terrain wisely, and minimize losses. At the same time, they would also need to protect both the people and their experimental plot.
They were afraid that the desert wolves would suddenly attack and catch them off guard. Nangong Jingming prayed silently in his heart that this was just a false alarm and that there would not be a real conflict with the desert wolves. However, he also knew that in this uninhabited desert, anything could happen, and being prepared for battle was the best arrangement.
"Is there something dangerous?" Su Siyi felt that the atmosphere between them was a little strange, so she found Nangong Jingming and asked.
"Traces of desert wolves were found nearby. This might be where they replenish their water!" Nangong Jingming did not hide her plan. If she really encountered one, she would be mentally prepared!
What's more, her own ability is not weak, but she has too little practical experience! Thinking of this, I will arrange some practical courses with her after returning to train her. If she goes to sign in somewhere in the future, she will also be able to protect herself.
"Desert wolves, are they dangerous animals?" Su Siyi asked curiously. She knew nothing about these creatures, but judging by the name, they seemed to be related to wolves. Nangong Jingming nodded and explained, "Desert wolves share the characteristics of ordinary wolves. They are social animals and very united. Once they lock onto their target, they will pursue it relentlessly until it is captured or killed. Furthermore, they have a very powerful attack and run very fast. Once they bite their prey, they will never let go easily." He explained the characteristics of desert wolves in detail, giving Su Siyi a deeper understanding of this creature.
"Are you going to kill them?" Su Siyi asked worriedly. Her voice trembled, as if she had witnessed the tragic slaughter of desert wolves. After all, she had never killed a large animal before, and the thought of them killing desert wolves was unbearable.
"No, there are not many desert wolves left. We won't kill them!" Nangong Jingming looked at her comfortingly, his eyes full of tenderness and determination. He knew that Su Siyi had a deep reverence for life, so he wanted to reassure her. He told her with an affirmative look that they would not really hurt these desert wolves.
After hearing Nangong Jingming's words, Su Siyi's worries eased a little, but she still felt uneasy. She couldn't help but ask, "But if we don't kill them, how can we ensure that they won't attack us again?"
Nangong Jingming smiled slightly and explained, "Desert wolves are very intelligent animals. As long as we show enough strength and majesty, they will understand that we are not to be trifled with. Moreover, we can also use food to lure them away. This way, we will not harm them and can solve the problem at the same time."
Su Siyi nodded to show her understanding.
Nangong Jingming saw what Su Siyi was thinking. He patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, "Don't worry, we will take care of this matter. Believe me, we won't hurt these desert wolves."
Su Siyi looked up at Nangong Jingming, trust gleaming in her eyes. She believed he would protect everyone and respect the lives of the desert wolves. In this unfamiliar environment, she felt increasingly reliant on Nangong Jingming; his presence made her feel at ease.
"So how do you plan to deal with the desert wolves?" Su Siyi asked.
"Of course we have to beat them into submission. If that doesn't work, we can use a tranquilizer gun." Nangong Jingming said.
"If you use the tranquilizer gun, other wolves will think you killed their companions. Won't they be even angrier then?" Su Siyi asked.
"Well, it will definitely happen, so either don't use it, or solve it!" Nangong Jingming said affirmatively.
"Oh, I see!" Su Siyi could only leave silently. She decided to continue watching the blue melon grow. It seemed like it was about to bloom! As for the desert wolf, she would wait until it came!
It hasn't happened yet, so everything is just imagination. However, we still need to make the necessary preparations, after all, it concerns everyone's safety.
They already had a plan, so she didn't have to think too much.
After dinner, we lit a bonfire in the camp to prevent the appearance of desert wolves. After all, desert wolves are afraid of fire.
As the night deepened, a chill wind howled through the camp. Nangong Jingming glanced at his watch. The hour hand pointed to ten o'clock. He knew it was late, and those damned desert wolves hadn't appeared yet. He couldn't help but feel a little confused and worried: Would these guys come? If they didn't come, wouldn't their whole night be wasted?
Thinking of this, Nangong Jingming decided to take action. He stood up, glanced at the people around him, and said loudly: "It's getting late. Those who need to rest should go and rest, and those who need to keep watch should cheer up!" His voice was full of majesty, which made people irresistible.
Everyone nodded in agreement and began to act according to Nangong Jingming's instructions. Some chose to return to the tent to rest and recuperate, while others stayed outside to continue watching the night and remain vigilant.
Su Siyi quickly entered her tent, lay down inside, and closed her eyes. She knew that if the desert wolves really came, she would need to have enough energy to deal with them. So, she decided to rest well so that she could stand up at the critical moment.
As time went on, the atmosphere in the camp grew increasingly tense. Everyone was waiting for the desert wolves to arrive, yet dreading their actual appearance. This conflicting feeling was incredibly oppressive.
The desert wolf didn't show up the entire night. When Su Siyi woke up, it was already seven in the morning. As soon as she woke up, she signed in mentally: "System, sign in."
"Ding, check-in successful, twenty Enlightenment Pills." The system reward will be credited immediately.
"Enlightenment Pill?" Although Su Siyi had seen it in novels, she was not sure whether it was the same as what she understood.
She quickly took out an enlightenment pill from her system backpack, and almost instantly, the effects of the enlightenment pill appeared in her mind.
It turns out that the Enlightenment Pill, as its name suggests, is a elixir that can unlock the wisdom of living beings. Whether animals or humans, taking this pill will enhance their intelligence and thinking abilities. For animals, they will be able to understand human language and communicate with us in a simple way. For those born with mental retardation or autism, the Enlightenment Pill has an even more miraculous effect, improving their brain function and gradually helping them return to normal.
