A wolf howl disrupted Luo Zheng and Lan Xue's march, forcing them to stop and watch the surrounding forest cautiously. Luo Zheng quickly picked up his weapon, chambering a bullet, and said, "Encountering wolves at this time isn't good. Hopefully, it's not a pack.

"Alright, it's almost daybreak anyway, let's take it as a break," Lan Xue said nonchalantly.
The two, skilled and fearless, didn't take the Wild Wolf seriously; they just didn't want unnecessary trouble. They quickly climbed a big tree, hiding in its crown, vigilantly watching the surrounding forest. But it was a grey haze everywhere, and they couldn't see anything, so they simply rested.
