Alien Creatures

Chapter 4: Werewolf Secrets

Hao Ren stared blankly at the silver-haired girl in front of him. Her long silver hair fluttered in the cold wind, her golden eyes glowed in the night, and more importantly, her pointed ears made it difficult to look away. If her face had not changed, Hao Ren would have almost failed to recognize that this was the silly girl Liu Lili whom he had brought from the city center not long ago.

But this was indeed her - not only her appearance could confirm this, but also her clothes.

At this time, the wind around was cold, the moonlight above his head was cold, the clothes on his body were cold, and the air exhaled from his mouth was cold - Hao Ren felt that he was almost frozen, but this abnormal coldness allowed him to stay awake, especially when the surroundings were filled with a thick and indissoluble bloody smell. This wakefulness was even more important: he was able to be alert to the surrounding situation while sorting out his three views, so as to try to figure out why he encountered such a thing today in the real world.

He did not talk to Lily as casually as before. Perhaps the strange environment made him lose the mood to talk, or perhaps Lily's strange appearance made him a little at a loss for words. To be fair, the beast-eared girl is indeed cute, but God knows whether the beast-eared girl in front of him has a drastic change in temperament after transformation: Hao Ren is 100% sure that he saw a trace of primitive beast in Lily's eyes, which made him terrified, and then he began to scroll through the screens of curious works at home and abroad in his mind.

As the cold and bloody smell became stronger, a thin layer of frost covered the ground of the path, and the bright moon in the sky was dyed a light red. Hao Ren was only wearing a thin summer coat, and he was shivering more and more in the cold wind. But Lily seemed to be completely unaffected by this. She just sniffed hard and twitched her ears a few times: "Cunning bats, using blood to cover up their own smell... Landlord, don't stay too far away from me. Those flying guys are active at night and are good at sneak attacks." After the "transformation", Lily spoke with a sense of coldness, but Hao Ren couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard what she said: It seems that her temperament has not changed drastically, and he dared to ask: "Lily, what's going on? You..." "I'm a werewolf," Lily's ears were more energetic than before, and her tone was proud, "Although I don't know what's going on, I am a werewolf! But I have always hidden my identity before, and this is the first time I have been seen... Tsk, it's really not good to get involved with those flying guys." "Oh." Hao Ren agreed, thinking that the worldview he had grown up with might not be able to be used anymore, but just as he was about to say something else, Lily suddenly shouted, "Here it comes!"

Almost at the same time as Lily's voice fell, Hao Ren saw the edge of the red moon tremble, and then a black dot suddenly enlarged from the moon halo and rushed towards him!

The black dot enlarged into a black shadow, and Hao Ren vaguely felt that the shadow seemed not to be a bat, but a bit like a human figure wearing a cloak, but he had no time to think more, because the shadow was already in front of him!

His muscles had been ready to go just now, waiting to dodge at any time. Now that he found himself being targeted, his first reaction was to dodge to the side, and as he jumped hard, the shadow almost brushed his hair and flew past.

The shadow didn't hit the target and was about to hit the ground. Lily didn't miss this opportunity. She kicked the attacker with a whip kick the moment Hao Ren dodged. The attack method was simple and crude. The moment the kick was kicked, there was even a "bang" in the air explosion, followed by more than a dozen crackling sounds. Hao Ren could only see that the silver-haired wolf-eared girl turned into a silver-white flash that was almost as fast as the shadow. She used the simplest punches and kicks to fight with the vague human-like shadow. There were no moves or rules. Every punch and kick was straight, but simple and crude and effective: the air was almost rippled by the fierce punches and kicks, and the shadow finally gradually fell into a disadvantage. Finally, it suddenly shrank into a bat shape and rushed into the sky, looking like it was preparing to escape.

Lily's last punch missed. The black bat had already flown to the top of the wall. She frowned in anger and made a "woohoo" sound from her throat, like a jackal protesting. Hao Ren was very familiar with this sound - he lived in the mountains of his hometown when he was a child, and there were wolves there at night.

That was the sound!

But this was not the time to marvel. Hao Ren knew that he had been involved in an incredible event. If it were normal, he would still be looking forward to this magical experience after reading novels and watching TV. However, now he only knew that this was a life-and-death moment: the bat escaped into the air and did not leave. "It" just circled slowly in the sky, as if mocking the werewolf on the ground for not being able to fly. While flying, it drew various trajectories in the air, sometimes an s, sometimes a b...

Hao Ren knew that as long as the bat was still circling in the sky, he would definitely not be safe. Although the werewolf girl looked strong in melee combat, she obviously could not fly or attack from a distance. More importantly, she was still a fool - if the bat rushed down to attack her again, Lily might not be able to stop it! What if this girl didn't react?

"Woo woo..." The angry threat in Lily's throat became more and more suppressed, and the hair on her ears also exploded. Then she suddenly raised her head and let out a clear and distant howl at the moon: "Awoo--"

Just as she raised her head and howled, a bat in the sky swooped down quickly, and Hao Ren almost jumped up at that time: So this werewolf girl is a fool! You are still posing in such a life-and-death confrontation!

But just when the bat was about to rush to Lily with a cloud of black mist, Hao Ren suddenly saw the latter raise her wrist. Before he could see clearly what flew out, he heard a sharp whistle in his ear. The bat that swooped down only had time to make itself slightly atomized before being hit hard and fled back to the sky in embarrassment. At this time, Hao Ren finally saw what Lily was holding in her other hand: that thing was square and clear in lines, red and cold, and it was a brick!

"Ha! If you have the guts, keep flying!" The werewolf girl shouted provocatively at the bat hovering in the sky, "Don't think I can't deal with you just because you have wings! Ever since I knew I was a werewolf, I have been studying how to deal with flying bastards like you. I have practiced this Pegasus Meteor Brick for five years! Come on, let's have a painful fight!"

Hao Ren fell to the ground: How come the legendary werewolf's ultimate move is to throw bricks? And it worked!

The bat in the sky must have been hit hard by a brick just now. It was flying crookedly at this time, and the bloody smell and cold mist from all directions seemed to fade away. It was obviously the result of the bat's power running out. "It" confronted the werewolf girl for a few minutes, and taking this opportunity, Lily quickly picked up another brick from the ground to reload. Seeing this scene, the bat seemed to finally lose its temper. It circled in the sky for the last time and turned around to fly towards the dark night sky.

Lily did not give up the opportunity to hit the downed dog. She raised her hand and threw all the bricks in her hand. Hao Ren could not see the trajectory of the two bricks, but he saw that the bat's figure tilted again. Obviously, at least one of the bricks hit the target - the Pegasus Meteor Brick that he had practiced for five years was indeed reliable.

But Hao Ren was more worried about where the bricks Lily threw would end up. This werewolf girl was extremely strong, and the initial velocity of the bricks was probably not much different from that of a cannonball... I could only pray that this broken place was sparsely populated, and I hoped that no unlucky person would be affected by this alien fight.

The attacker was repelled, and the surrounding environment gradually returned to normal. The bloody smell disappeared without a trace like an illusion. The slight heat of the summer night came again, and Hao Ren rubbed his nose and sneezed hard: This temperature difference is indeed not something that normal people can bear. It seems that a cold is inevitable.

He looked up at the werewolf girl, watching the beautiful silver hair turn back to its original black short hair at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the pair of spirited wolf ears disappeared. He smacked his lips, but didn't know what to say.

Lily could feel the awkward atmosphere at this time, but she seemed to have expected it, or had already realized it. She just turned her head and showed Hao Ren a slightly awkward smile, then bent down to pick up her big suitcase and put it on her shoulder, turning her head to leave: "Hey, landlord, I don't rent the house anymore... You should go home quickly. By the way, don't tell anyone about what happened today, it will be very troublesome for me."

After saying this, Lily turned around and left.

"Wait a minute!" When Lily had already walked a few steps away, Hao Ren finally came to his senses, "Where are you going so late? Come back with me and pack your luggage as soon as possible..." Lily turned her head in astonishment, her big eyes shining in the night were full of confusion: "Why? Aren't you afraid that the flying guy will come again? That guy may be coming for me - I am a werewolf, and I am a mortal enemy of that kind of guy." Hao Ren gritted his teeth and finally smiled: "Because I am a good person!"
