Chapter 281: Chapter 193: Expert Defection. _2
They felt that the terrifying Rat Tide would be the most formidable force in the Arctic Tundra!
Yet they had never anticipated that this White Wolf that appeared out of nowhere would be even more dominant, utterly invincible!
The Wolf Pack under its command was just as imposing!
From the Traveling Rat carcasses scattered all over the ground, Sander and the others realized that during the time they were unconscious, the Wolf Pack must have emerged victorious from their bloody confrontation with the Rat Tide!
The Rat Tide, which they had considered unbeatable, indomitable in their eyes, had been turned into streaks of blood and chunks of flesh, strewn across the Arctic Tundra!
This Wolf Pack was too terrifying, and the White Wolf was equally horrifying!
So even if Sander racked his brains, he still had no idea how to escape from the clutches of such a terrifying White Wolf and its Wolf Pack!
What's more, the Heavy Armored vehicle was ruined; without it, surviving in the several dozens of degrees below zero of the Harsh Arctic Ice Plains was a challenge, let alone escaping!
Therefore, Sander watched the White Wolf approach, almost as if he had resigned himself to his fate,
and the other New Humans inside the Heavy Armored vehicle felt the same as Sander.
Because even if they were unwilling to accept this fate, there was no way they could escape from before the Wolf's Eyes!
When they had set off on this expedition to the Arctic, everyone thought it would be fraught with danger.
But when they truly faced death, these team members, once hailed as tough guys, couldn't help but tremble with fear!
Some even felt an urge to cry bitterly, for tears are the best way to release all the sorrow and pain in one's heart.
They really didn't want to die!
This wasn't just an instinctual desire for survival hardwired into their genes; they had too many things they couldn't let go of!
They all had families they wanted to see and spend time with again, to return to alive.
But as the White Wolf drew closer, they felt the presence of death looming ever nearer.
With the overpowering stench of death, everyone inside the Heavy Armored vehicle felt an endless oppression.
In the end, it was the scholars and experts who broke this heavy silence, "Why can't we speak? We just came to accompany you on the exploration of the Arctic. Didn't you say that in times of danger, you would protect us? Now that danger has come, where is the protection you promised?"
Yet, no New Human inside the Heavy Armored vehicle responded to the experts' questioning and roaring.
After a mere dozen seconds or so, the Heavy Armored vehicle returned to its deathly stillness and oppression!
However, after witnessing such a scene, the scholars and experts knew that now, nobody could protect them!
Yet these experts and scholars felt even more wronged than the New Human Squadron members.
If it wasn't for the coercion from the officials, they would never have joined the New Human Squadron on this long and arduous trip to explore the Arctic!
If they hadn't come, with their prestige and knowledge within the human world, they might not have lived as well as before, but they could at least ensure they had no worries about food and clothing!
Now they were facing death by Exotic Beasts, something they truly did not desire!
So the two experts struggled forcefully, attempting to exit the Heavy Armored vehicle,
Actually, in their research on Exotic Beasts during this time, both the Science Alliance and the front-line combat forces had long discovered that Exotic Beasts, Exotic Flowers, and other Mutated Species had all developed high intelligence!
Therefore, facing these highly intelligent beings, the two experts planned to surrender!
In any case, what they thought of was to stay alive!
As long as they could save their lives, even if it meant surrendering to Exotic Beasts, what harm was there?
As for patriotism, at this moment it meant nothing!
Loyalty is often betrayed by those in power, while cold-heartedness is all too common in scholars!
These experts, who had neither the strength to truss a chicken nor had they escaped the New Human Squadron's insults and demands throughout the journey, finally could not suppress their survival instincts any longer.
The two experts struggled forcibly and crawled out from inside the Heavy Armored vehicle. Read exclusive adventures at m_v-l'e|m,p-y r
Even though their bodies had been battered and bruised from tumbling about,
once outside, they endured the severe pain and started to clumsily attempt to convey their intentions to surrender to the White Wolf through their body language.
As experts specifically in the fields of the Arctic and animals, they naturally understood the body language used between Wolf Clans.
Thus, they were half-kneeling and crawling on the ground,
and even when they saw the approaching White Wolf show no change of expression, they lay back on the ground with their hands and feet in the air, stomach exposed,
hoping to demonstrate their utmost loyalty in this manner.
Only, the human attempts to imitate these actions left Su Lin internally feeling a mix of laughter and pity.
However, he still made no move, his golden-brown wolf eyes simply observing these humans with an icy gaze.
Of course, this included the humans who were too scared to show their heads from within the Heavy Armored vehicles!
Even Su Lin had detected the scent of Variant Species from some of these humans!
"Hmm? Human Variant Species?"
A trace of surprise flickered across Su Lin's expression.
After all, he had spent the past year in the Harsh Arctic, with too little understanding of the human world, naturally, he had never seen so-called Human Variant Species.
However, humans belong to the primate category, and since all species can evolve and mutate, it is only natural that humans are no exception!
At this moment, Su Lin faced the surrender of these two humans without much interest.
Because now, these humans before him were as good as dead with a flip of his hand!
Surrender, to him, was meaningless.
What Su Lin was more concerned about now was how much information these humans could bring him that he did not know.
With this thought, he first passed by the two humans who, unafraid of the harsh cold, were comically flipping on the icy surface, showing their bellies.
Instead, he walked directly again toward the two abandoned Heavy Armored vehicles!
Bang!
Su Lin's Wolf Claw once again hit the Heavy Armored vehicle!
Only this time, he controlled his strength well, further widening the gaps in the outer walls of the Heavy Armored vehicle, directly exposing several trembling humans hiding inside!
Another Heavy Armored vehicle, Su Lin similarly lifted its outer wall!
Then with a thought, the Numerical Attributes of these several humans appeared before his eyes!
The Numerical Attributes of ordinary humans need not be mentioned, most of them are around Level Four and Five,
and apart from the Endurance Value being above average, the rest of the Attributes are unremarkable.
But Su Lin took a closer look at the Numerical Attributes of the Variant Species humans!
Species: Caucasian (Variant)
Level: Level Seven.
Qi-Blood: 815.
Endurance: 83.
Strength: 75.
Defense: 52.
Speed: 51.
The Numerical Attributes of these Variant Species humans aren't very high, most of them at the standard of Level Six and Seven.
Compared to the Variant Species Wolf Clan of the same level, except for Endurance and Qi-Blood, there is a significant gap.
For Su Lin, these Numerical Attributes of the Variant Species humans were within his expectations.
After all, humans have grown accustomed to using tools and technology, and naturally, their physical and genetic abilities have significantly degenerated.
If it weren't for the reliance on powerful Technology Weapons,
these frail Variant Species humans would probably be hunted down on the spot by just one or two agile members of the Bear Clan after entering the Arctic Tundra!
At this moment, as Su Lin's cold gaze lingered, the several humans exposed to the Harsh Arctic air within the Heavy Armored vehicle also looked up in fear and panic at the massive White Wolf.
Although they were already aware that they were likely to face a grim fate, there was still a sliver of hope in their eyes!
Countless thoughts flashed through their minds.
What if human flesh was not to the White Wolf's taste?
What if the White Wolf was already tired of killing in the Rat Tide and would spare them a chance at life?
Many thoughts in their minds were impractical.
Yet in the face of life or death decisions, only such unrealistic thoughts could comfort their hearts, which were panicked to the extreme.
At this time, every passing second under the White Wolf's icy stare felt exceedingly long to them.
