Chapter 272: Chapter 52: Legend of the Night (5K for monthly passes)_2

But for women, the fate is far more tragic; they’d be directly captured and taken to their dens to exist as ones bearing Star Rage Power.

Occasionally, when a Wasteland Patrol Team managed to breach a discovered werewolf den, the hostages they rescued were usually so ravaged that they barely resembled humans anymore.

People gave them the nickname ’Doomed Goblins,’ despised by both gods and ghosts on the wasteland.

Therefore, when he heard the other party mention hunting werewolves, Xu Shu did show a slight interest, "You’ve discovered a werewolf den?"

Matthew first nodded, then shook his head and said, "To be precise, not a den, but a lone werewolf."

"A lone one?"

Xu Shu pondered.

No wonder they dared to attempt to deal with it, relying just on one Transcendent plus a dozen or so ordinary retired veterans.

Although the wasteland had no monsters above First-tier, monsters were monsters after all, especially group-loving werewolves. A den might house seven or eight of them, and such a scale would require a reasonably sized team to exterminate.

Now that it was a lone wolf, that made sense.

But a single one, wouldn’t it be hard to chase? Werewolves are known for their agility...

Xu Shu asked thoughtfully, "Where is it, and what’s your plan?"

Matthew extended his hand and pointed behind Xu Shu, "It’s over there."

"?"

In that moment, Xu Shu’s pupils constricted, and hairs on his back stood on end.

Had he not felt an absence of danger, he would have immediately activated Jingwei and rolled onto the ground.

The next moment, Xu Shu turned back with an expressionless face and looked.

Outside the window, Yue Hua was shimmering, and there was a small hill of ruins, with occasional upright fallen concrete columns that didn’t obscure the view. So, everything was in plain sight, even the border line a couple of hundred meters away, and farther the silhouette of the mountain range, like a silent giant corpse, stood there.

Empty, nothing there, naturally no werewolf that Matthew spoke of.

Xu Shu turned back and, with narrowed eyes, said, "Explain what you mean by ’it’s over there.’"

If you can’t explain clearly, you can stay here today as my victory trophy. Oh, I almost forgot you people don’t even have a Promotion Drive.

Damn, bad luck!

I almost died of fright thinking it silently sliced my neck! Xu Shu took a deep breath to calm himself.

Matthew, unaware he just danced at Ghost Gate, probably thought he was quite humorous, his mouth curving in a confident smile:

"See that collapsed warehouse? After midnight tonight, that werewolf will come to the ruins, find a spot, and start its moonlight bath."

He pointed to an area to the north of the Lighthouse Inn, an empty space amidst the ruins.

It was well known that every night, the wasteland saw numerous pitch-black monsters that wouldn’t drop anything when killed, emerging from the ground to bask in the moonlight and sleep.

Starting from the safety zone, there were the most monsters at the center, decreasing step by step from inside to outside.

But not all monsters came from beneath the ground.

Some were already active on the surface during the day.

They might lurk in their dens during the day, and at night, they would come out and silently sit up towards the moon.

It was commonly jokingly referred to as ’moonlight bathing.’

However, what caught Xu Shu’s attention was — after midnight tonight.

"How do you know it will come tonight?" Xu Shu asked.

Can you also foresee the future?

Matthew replied, "Of course, I relied on information. In fact, it has been coming every night, for three days now. Based on my judgment, it must be max level and is here trying to evolve. Once it can complete the evolution, it’ll leave the wasteland."

"Information, every night..." Xu Shu was momentarily stunned.

He glanced towards the inn’s reception desk, then quickly understood the source of the information — Bruce. They had just talked not long ago.

Really, why didn’t you tell me directly?

Xu Shu muttered to himself before asking Matthew, "How can you be sure there’s only one werewolf and not a Scout from a den, preparing to reconnoiter and then attack this human settlement?"

"Your thinking is correct, so I’ve already done a thorough check around this afternoon, ensuring it’s the only one."

Matthew chuckled and pointed to his nose, "Trust me, I’m an experienced Rascal. Although I’m older now, my sense of smell hasn’t degenerated."

Oh~ so it’s a "Rascal," no wonder you’re so sure... Suddenly, Xu Shu remembered his former teammate, the big-chested Huang Mao woman Hong Yan, recalling how under her lead, they were able to accurately locate and kill monsters one by one.

Seeing Xu Shu’s expression swayed, Matthew took the initiative to say, "What do you think, interested in collaborating? If you’re willing to participate, we can split the final spoils fifty-fifty. Hehe, my nose tells me, this werewolf, it’s of Fine quality, the gains won’t be small."

A monster of Fine quality would, aside from an Erosion Crystal, have ’materials’ that could be put to use — fur, claws, etc., all possible. In total, the worth of one monster would be around one hundred thousand yuan, and, if lucky, perhaps even more.

He said they would split fifty-fifty, but since he had many brothers to take care of, in essence, he was letting Xu Shu take the larger share.

After all, one’s true circumstances are known to oneself; he was just a level 12 White Curse Seal, the lowest grade of Transcendent.

While someone like Xu Shu, so young and wandering the Wasteland alone, obviously had at least a ’Fine’ grade Curse Seal.

To deal with a First Rank monster of the same Fine quality, clearly, he would be the main force.
