He rushed to the bedside and drew his needle-type shotgun.
Human survival potential is immense. Jiang Ye finished loading in less than two seconds, his hands moving with incredible speed.
The alien wolf had already pounced onto the driver's side window, smashing against the glass!
Jiang Ye directly opened the rear window, aimed at a large wolf, and pulled the trigger repeatedly!
Boom, boom!
The massive recoil nearly sent him flying.
The bullets were astonishingly effective, tearing through one wolf's waist. With a howl of agony, the broken-waisted wolf collapsed to the ground, twitching twice before lying still.
The other wolves, initially startled, became even more frenzied. They abandoned their assault on the cockpit and turned to attack the open window.
Jiang Ye had just reloaded when he saw a gaping maw; a wolf was attempting to leap through the window!
He directly shoved the gun barrel into the wolf's mouth and fired twice!
Bang, bang!
The wolf that bit the barrel met a gruesome end. The powerful bullets instantly pierced its intestines, exiting its rear and killing it on the spot.
The corpse slid off the barrel, leaving a gun barrel coated in blood.
The remaining wolves still didn't retreat, their growls becoming fiercer. As Jiang Ye finished reloading, another wolf leaped up. This one was agile, its front paws already gripping the window frame!
But it was of no use.
Jiang Ye directly thrust the muzzle into its forehead and pulled the trigger!
Headshot! The skull shattered, brains and shredded meat splattering everywhere, along with spurting blood. The wolf instantly became a headless creature, its claws losing their grip on the front window. The corpse fell, blood gushing from its neck.
Three wolves killed in succession!
The wolf pack finally became fearful and scattered like birds, fleeing rapidly into the distance.
One wolf seemed unwilling to abandon its companion's corpse, dragging the headless wolf by its tail as it ran. Consequently, it lagged behind.
Tsk, how touching, carrying the corpse away. What a loyal and righteous alien wolf! Jiang Ye was moved.
Boom, boom!
Two quick shots, and the wolf carrying the corpse was hit twice and fell to the ground.
The remaining wolves had already run too far to be hit.
Jiang Ye blew on the barrel, only then realizing he was covered in cold sweat.
He pushed open the base door and went down to inspect the wolf carcasses.
They indeed resembled wolves, but were nearly twice the size of Earth wolves, with visibly bulging muscles, clearly defined. Their fur was not smooth but coarse, feeling extremely rough to the touch.
Jiang Ye tried to lift a wolf carcass to gauge its weight, but found he couldn't budge it, only manage to drag it along the ground with great effort.
He estimated it weighed at least a hundred pounds!
Such large wolves would have been deadly without the base and his gun.
With all his might, he dragged one wolf carcass back to the base and pushed it into the trading pod.
He had worked so hard to kill them; could he get a good price?
After a moment of scanning, the base panel displayed a prompt:
[Item: Helman Wolf]
[Item Description: An alien wolf species that killed biologist Helman. Possesses two sets of cardiopulmonary systems that can work alternately. Bite force reaches 850 pounds, maximum speed 67k
Jiang Ye exited the base and dragged the other three wolf carcasses back. He grunted and panted as he skinned them.
He worked until evening, and all the wolf skins were removed.
He put them into the trading pod for sale.
First, he sold the worst wolf skin, from the first wolf Jiang Ye had killed.
At the time, two shots had hit the wolf's waist, tearing the entire section apart, so the wolf skin was also in pieces.
Jiang Ye anticipated a lower price for it, but he hadn't expected it to be so little:
[Item: Broken Wolf Skin]
[Item Description: It's broken, cannot be made into luxury goods, nor will it catch the eye of noble ladies.]
[Estimated Price: 1000 Credits]
Jiang Ye felt utterly exasperated. He wished he hadn't been so fierce in his killing.
He sold it, then put in the other two wolf skins. These two skins were quite good, intact except for bullet holes. They sold for 270,000 and 200,000 respectively.
His personal assets increased again, reaching 972,067!
He was less than thirty thousand credits away from upgrading the base, almost there!
Jiang Ye was elated; this was a blessing in disguise.
He tried putting the wolf meat into the trading pod, wanting to see if it could be sold.
But the trading pod remained unresponsive.
After trying several times, there was still no reaction.
The meaning was clear: wolf meat was worthless.
Jiang Ye sniffed it; the meat emitted a putrid smell that was completely unappetizing.
He casually tossed it into a corner, like garbage.
However, besides wolf meat, there was other meat.
Jiang Ye turned his gaze to the window outside.
In the distant wasteland lay several large animals, mostly consumed, but some bones and flesh remained.
The wolves he had just encountered had been gathered to eat these carcasses.
Jiang Ye got into the cockpit, turned the steering wheel, and drove the base vehicle forward, reaching the large animal carcasses.
He hesitated for a few seconds with his hand on the door opening button, but ultimately did not press it, instead stepping on the accelerator and driving away.
The reason was simple: the smell was absolutely unbearable!
A pungent, eye-stinging stench rushed in from outside the window, giving the illusion of a septic tank explosion!
Whoever wanted to eat such a foul-smelling corpse could have it!
He drove the vehicle further, out to the open plains where the air was fresh.
Jiang Ye stopped the vehicle and opened the window to ventilate.
The base was still filled with wolf blood, the edges already coagulated, but the center remained liquid.
He suddenly had a bold idea and decided to try it.
He opened the Galaxy Mall and bought an empty blood grenade, inserting it into the blood.
However, after waiting for a while, the blood did not enter the grenade.
It seemed that to fill a blood grenade, it had to be the blood of a living creature; dead blood wouldn't go in.
Jiang Ye opened the chat channel. The channel was flooded with messages, most of them people crying out for food.
The famine was still ongoing!
After a brief moment of thought, Jiang Ye placed his hands on the keyboard and began typing:
Just killed a few wild beasts, left about four hundred pounds of meat. If anyone wants meat, I don't want money or items, just blood in exchange.
I'll give you an empty blood grenade first. Fill the grenade with your blood and return it to me, and I'll immediately give you one pound of meat!
DM me if you're interested. Limited quantity, hurry, hurry!
