Chapter 45: Spoils of War

Fighting in a blizzard.

The weaknesses of the Shocked Deer King and Yu Ke are extremely obvious.

The former has limited means of attack, and the large amount of physical strength consumed greatly reduces the effect of his extraordinary ability.

The latter lacks flexibility, and the snow trips Yu Ke's legs, making him trapped in the siege of monsters and unable to exert his full strength.

When Yu Ke and the Shocked Deer King get together, the situation is completely different.

Under Yu Ke's command, the Shocked Deer King crushed the snow and went straight to the Wendiegos that he had tried to kill before, and they still had no intention of retreating, and took the initiative to surround him to repeat the previous operation.

However, the situation on the battlefield has long been changed!

Yu Ke and the Shocked Deer King had cooperated before when hunting giant pythons, and they have met frequently recently, so there is always a tacit understanding.

When the two sides met, Yu Ke pointed his axe at the fastest leopard-shaped Wendiego.

Without any extra commands, the Shocked Horned Deer King immediately activated his ability, lifted it into the air, and then launched a charge.

After crossing each other, the only thing left was the corpse cut in half by the Leviathan Axe!

Relying on its own strong flexibility, the Shocked Horned Deer King passed the leopard-shaped Wendiego and turned around suddenly. Yu Ke hugged its neck with his left hand, leaned sideways, and swung the long-handled axe in his hand across a half-moon arc, slashing into the head of another monster and smashing it.

The cooperation between one man and one deer became more and more familiar.

To put it bluntly, this is the cooperation between the warhorse and the knight.

If either side is taken out alone, the role they can play in the battle is extremely limited, but if they are allowed to gather, the warhorse runs, and the long-handled axe in the knight's hand takes advantage of the momentum of the charge, the lethality it can exert is not as simple as one plus one?

Not to mention that Yu Ke and the Shocked Horned Deer King belong to the luxurious enhanced version of this combination!

In the deep forest and snow.

The Frightened Horned Deer King gave up the attack and devoted himself to the two tasks of rushing and controlling.

With the help of the boulders in the forest and the trees as pedals, he constantly changed the angle to launch a return charge, and at the same time released extraordinary abilities in the process, or blocked the ice cubes thrown by Wendiego, or helped Yu Ke control Wendiego who wanted to sneak attack nearby.

What should I do when facing the charge of the knight holding a long-handled axe, and I can't move my hands and feet?

It's very simple, close your eyes and start praying to find a good family in the next life!

Of course, these monsters in front of me don't have this opportunity.

Wendiego and others can't stop the charge of the Frightened Horned Deer King, and their bodies are as fragile as paper under the axe blade.

This is a massacre!

Yu Ke didn't intend to let them go at all.

Not only because of their previous attempts to surround and kill him and the Frightened Horned Deer King, but more importantly, this kind of monster can provide experience to both [Forest Ranger] and [Investigator] professions at the same time, and it is also a special monster that can trigger the loot trait.

Every time he killed a Wendiego, Yu Ke felt the changes in himself, plus the recovery bonus of the Heart of the Wilderness.

Others would only get more tired in such a blizzard, but he became more and more courageous. In the end, the Shocked Horned Deer King was exhausted, so he simply jumped down and ran straight to the few remaining Wendiego.

He chopped off the hideous head with an axe in front of him, then lowered his body and stabbed the sharp axe handle into the waist and abdomen of the monster behind him, let go and twisted his waist to face the bear-shaped Wendiego who was rushing towards him, and punched it.

He broke its claws with a powerful fist, and ended it with a whip kick that broke its neck.

Yu Ke, who had won a great victory, turned around and sat on the corpse of the monster. In addition to the ones killed by the Shocked Horned Deer King, he had killed nearly thirteen monsters in a row, and his blood was boiling, and he could not feel the polar cold surrounding him at all.

Yo~ Yo~

The scarred Deer King came forward, his majestic figure still standing tall in the snow. Only when he looked at Yu Ke did he lower his head slightly, calling him twice, signaling him to get on his back and return together.

Yu Ke raised his eyebrows and carried the Leviathan Axe on his shoulders.

He was glad that he did not hesitate when he saw the deer.

If it were a few minutes at night, the situation here would probably be completely reversed.

The harvest of this trip was really not small.

The quality of the trophies was really good, and the attitude of the Deer King also changed.

They were all obtained by Yu Ke rushing into the snowy forest alone, a gift from fate to the brave!

It was already afternoon when we returned to the camp.

Yu Ke first opened the gate of the camp and let the Deer in.

Because the old and weak had already occupied all the houses, the young and strong Deer had to rest in the open space in the camp.

Compared to the Mirror Lake Forest, which was ravaged by snow and surrounded by monsters, this was already a great refuge for them.

Yu Ke brought out a few more bags of vegetables to distribute to the frightened deer so that they could eat enough and avoid physical decline due to excessive physical exertion, and then be invaded by the wind and cold.

At this time, there were only two days left before the end of the cold wave, and Yu Ke didn't care that the vegetables in the hunting lodge were exhausted. Anyway, the frightened deer didn't eat meat, dumplings, etc., so he didn't worry about starving himself.

After settling the frightened deer, Yu Ke brought the deer king, who had to follow and look after the deer herd even if he was injured, to the bottom of the sentry tower steel frame to treat its injuries.

There was no other way. Yu Ke wanted to bring the deer king directly into the sentry tower.

However, unlike those cubs, the deer king was too big to enter the door at all, so he could only be treated outside.

Fortunately, he had taken a lot of medicines from the small garden workstation before, including sprays and powders for treating wounds.

With the physique of the frightened deer king, as long as the wound did not worsen, plus sufficient food, it would not be difficult to recover from the injury, it would just take some time.

After finishing all this, Yu Ke returned to the sentry tower.

Several cubs have gradually recovered in the warm house, staying in the place arranged by Yu Ke quite obediently, not jumping around everywhere, and seeing Yu Ke enter the door, they came up to greet him intimately.

Yu Ke also fed them some food, and only started to treat his own wounds after comforting them.

After taking off his coat and cold-proof underwear, the muscles of his strong body that had just experienced a battle were bulging and slightly red, as if cast in steel.

Yu Ke looked at the gap on his back, which was still stained with blood, so he stood up and walked to the mirror in the bathroom to check. There were three scars about the length of his index finger.

Judging from the color of the wound, there was no collateral damage.

Apart from the physical damage, there were only some frostbite, which had no effect on him. He just needed to disinfect it, apply ointment and wrap it with gauze, and he would just have to sleep on his stomach at night.

Compared with this insignificant pain, Yu Ke was more concerned about the information about the updated trophy characteristics.

Calming down, he could clearly perceive the changes in himself.

Hunting target: Wendiego

[Trait] Cold resistance (white)

[Skill] Wind and snow control (white)

[Main attribute] Strength enhancement (blue)

It is no longer just a "small" text description.

Yu Ke has made great gains in the enhancement of traits, skills and even main attributes by killing a large number of Wendiego.

Raising his hand and clenching his fist, every muscle seemed to have power surging in it.

When he let go of his hand, a wisp of frost rose from his palm and condensed into a coin-sized ice crystal in an instant.

Yu Ke grinned, and the injury on his back suddenly became relieved, and even the occasional stinging pain was no longer noticeable.
