Madam Jade

Chapter 321 The Ancient Castle's Frightening Night Twenty-one

Ning Wei's skin crawled from his lecherous gaze.

"You're disgusting, hurry back to your room and find a suitable tool!"

Song Zhi glanced at the werewolf below and said to Ning Wei with great resolve, "Don't worry, I definitely won't drag everyone down!"

He then entered the room, seemingly determined to face it alone.

If the werewolf stormed into the room and he remained silent throughout, it would mean everyone wouldn't know he was in trouble.

Ning Wei hadn't expected the usually unreliable Song Zhi to make such a shocking decision, realizing she didn't understand her team well enough.

During the long process of clearing the levels, they had become a family closer than mere teammates.

Sacrificing for family, wasn't that only natural?

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Ning Wei cursed under her breath, then entered the room at the last possible second.

She immediately began a search; this was the third completely different room she had stayed in.

In this regard, she was fortunate, except for the corpse on the floor with its eyes wide open in death.

Ning Wei found the murder weapon, a handy small axe.

Judging by its sharpness, chopping a werewolf shouldn't be a problem.

Ning Wei wiped the axe clean, then placed it at her waist, holding a silver steak knife and dragging a stool to sit by the door.

Song Zhi's room was separated from hers by Tang Tang and Yuan Yuan, so the sounds weren't very clear.

Actually, Ning Wei's low-voiced notification to her teammates was also due to her own selfishness.

Even if her teammates turned into ghosts, she didn't want to betray them or let Sheng Kaiwei's group know.

However, she hadn't figured out how to deal with teammates turning into ghosts, so she could only hope to repel the werewolves tonight and protect her teammates!

Time couldn't be seen from inside the room, so Ning Wei could only count the time silently in her heart.

First, they heard the howling of werewolves in the hall. It felt like these werewolves were all mentally disturbed, needing to declare their presence first.

Then came the searching of the unfortunate souls on each floor. Even through the door, Ning Wei had guessed all their actions.

She just didn't know when it would be their turn on the third floor, while Ning Wei also hoped the werewolves would be wary of the silver steak knives they held and spare their floor.

These could only be hopes, as werewolves wouldn't spare unfortunate souls without safe houses.

They had been hungry for a long time and needed fresh flesh to fill their stomachs.

As Ning Wei was carefully listening to the sounds outside, she suddenly heard Zhu Yulian cry out, "Help, I can't hold on!"

Her voice was just outside the corridor. Ning Wei's heart tightened upon hearing it, and she immediately opened the door and rushed out.

It turned out Song Zhi had already been discovered by a werewolf. While fighting the werewolf, he had gritted his teeth and refused to make a sound. Who knew Zhu Yulian was so bold, rushing out even without hearing anything.

This werewolf might have been greedy and wanted to feast alone, so it only wanted to kill Song Zhi quickly and eat its fill, not calling for its companions to help.

Song Zhi's silver steak knife was indeed something the werewolf feared. A gentle slash could leave a wound on them.

With this silver knife, Song Zhi fought the werewolf for several rounds.

The werewolf was over two meters tall, but Song Zhi wasn't short either, standing at a tall one meter eighty, making him stand out in a crowd.

With Zhu Yulian's arrival, the werewolf actually seemed to be on the defensive.

At this moment, another werewolf discovered them. One had to admit these werewolves all had a greedy streak; therefore, when the second werewolf joined, it didn't call for more companions, choosing instead a two-on-two fight.

They were strong and robust, possessing an innate advantage in stamina and strength. Thus, after the new werewolf joined, Song Zhi and Zhu Yulian began to struggle.

Song Zhi didn't want to implicate his teammates, constantly pushing Zhu Yulian back towards the safe house. However, Zhu Yulian directly shouted for help from other teammates.

When Ning Wei ran out, she saw a werewolf clawing at Song Zhi's shoulder, with Zhu Yulian panting behind him.

Ning Wei immediately threw the axe at her waist, shouting, "Duck!"

Zhu Yulian pulled Song Zhi down, and the axe grazed over their heads. The werewolf was forced to retreat, and the axe landed at its feet.

Seeing Ning Wei appear, both werewolves bared their teeth at her.

As hunters, these werewolves could naturally sense if a person in front of them was strong.

Evidently, both of them were extremely wary of Ning Wei.

Because of this, the two werewolves exchanged glances and made a decision.

With a howl, they could summon their companions.

But Ning Wei's side wasn't just three people. While they were locked in combat, Mei Nan and the others also rushed out, armed with murder weapons and silver steak knives.

The other werewolves were likely upstairs. Ning Wei heard the thudding sound of them running downstairs.

"To the hall, we can't fight effectively here!" Ning Wei shouted to her teammates, charging ahead to give them ample time.

Ning Wei was quite skilled with knives, and her movements were agile, allowing her to weave between the werewolves without getting hurt.

Her teammates were not hesitant. Upon hearing Ning Wei's command, they immediately went downstairs. Along the way, they bumped into werewolves that had rushed ahead, and the group cooperated, swinging their silver knives.

With her teammates gone, Ning Wei picked up her axe and followed closely behind.

She had let her teammates go downstairs first because these rookies would only obediently descend the stairs.

As for her, her movements were agile and she was bold. After reaching the second floor, she directly jumped down from the railing.

To everyone's surprise, Ning Wei leaped onto a werewolf's back and plunged the steak knife fiercely into its head.

The force was so great that she couldn't pull it out for a moment.

But the werewolves rushing from behind had already arrived. Ning Wei could only make a compromise and abandon the steak knife for now.

"Yo, an old acquaintance!" Ning Wei chuckled upon seeing the werewolf charging towards her. Wasn't this the limping one?

She still remembered the confident look the limping werewolf had given Ning Wei on the first night.

Although the werewolf couldn't speak, it knew from Ning Wei's provocative expression that she wasn't saying anything good.

It let out a howl and charged forward. Ning Wei held her axe, maintaining a combat stance.

As the werewolf charged, she charged forward too. The moment the werewolf extended its claws, Ning Wei suddenly lowered her head, carrying the axe.

The werewolf missed its grasp and then felt a sharp pain in its leg. Ning Wei had actually hit its calf with the axe, and it was the leg that was already lame.

As the saying goes, "don't expose people's weaknesses." Ning Wei's actions thoroughly enraged the werewolf.

Ning Wei rolled on the ground, not forgetting to retrieve her axe.
