Surviving the Infinite Survival Game by Exploiting Glitches
Chapter 22 Mutant Gray Wolf"Okay. Let’s go."
Seeing that Lin Yun had agreed, Chen Anna breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew that some people might consider her behavior overly compassionate or even foolish, but she simply couldn’t stand by and watch her friend get into trouble.
No matter what others thought of her, she had to at least try.
Whatever the final outcome, she would have no regrets.
Yesterday, while chatting, she and Yao An’an had each mentioned the general direction of their shelters.
So Chen Anna immediately led Lin Yun toward the area Yao An’an had described.
Lin Yun was somewhat surprised.
She hadn’t expected Chen Anna and Yao An’an to be this close. They even knew the general locations of each other’s shelters.
Still, it had nothing to do with her.
Lin Yun would never reveal the location of her own shelter to anyone.
However, she soon realized that Chen Anna didn’t actually know where Yao An’an’s shelter was. She only knew the general direction.
The closer Ghost Vine got to Yao An’an’s shelter, the more uneasy it became.
It seemed to sense a familiar presence.
[You! Stop! Don’t go any farther!]
Lin Yun immediately stopped.
Chen Anna, who had been walking ahead, turned around anxiously.
Seeing Lin Yun suddenly stop, she thought that she had changed her mind.
"What’s wrong?"
"Let’s move back and find somewhere to hide first. Ghost Vine says something isn’t right around here."
Lin Yun grabbed Chen Anna and led her into a nearby shop.
"Ghost vine?"
Lin Yun looked down at Ghost Vine, which had dropped to the ground.
Ghost Vine turned around and, with the seriousness of a little adult, instructed them:
[I’m going to scout ahead. You two stay here and don’t come any closer.]
Lin Yun nodded.
Only then did Ghost Vine feel reassured and quietly slipped away to investigate.
"Why did it leave? Is something wrong?"
Since Lin Yun had said something was wrong, Chen Anna didn’t question it.
After all, Lin Yun had already saved her twice, and she trusted her judgment.
The shop they had entered was a small restaurant.
Lin Yun pulled a chair from a secluded corner and sat down.
"Ghost Vine is going to scout the area. Let’s wait here for now."
"If nothing unexpected happens, Yao An’an should be somewhere nearby."
Hearing this, Chen Anna finally relaxed a little.
At least Yao An’an was nearby.
She had been genuinely afraid that they wouldn’t be able to find her.
Ghost Vine cautiously moved farther ahead and carefully surveyed the surroundings.
Then it discovered the culprit.
That vicious gray wolf!
Ghost Vine had encountered this mutated gray wolf before.
Once, the wolf had passed by while Ghost Vine was eating its prey.
Without warning, it had rushed over and snatched the food away.
At the time, Ghost Vine had been inside its own territory and had never imagined that something would be bold enough to steal its food right in front of it!
Enraged, it had lashed the wolf with its vines more than a dozen times.
But the gray wolf had stubbornly refused to let go. It had dragged the prey right out of Ghost Vine’s territory.
That had infuriated Ghost Vine even more.
After that, the gray wolf would occasionally come over to cause trouble and steal its food.
And whenever it couldn’t steal anything, it would chase away the animals nearby, as if it were deliberately preventing Ghost Vine from having anything to eat.
Don’t think Ghost Vine didn’t know what that bastard was doing!
That gray wolf was clearly taking revenge for the beating it had received back then!
Fortunately, it seemed that the gray wolf had found a new toy and started bothering other creatures instead, so it rarely came looking for Ghost Vine anymore.
Ghost Vine gritted its teeth.
No wonder this aura felt so familiar!
It was that old nemesis!
This time, it had to kill that gray wolf.
It had barely eaten enough lately and had almost starved to death!
Ghost Vine snorted coldly and immediately turned around.
It was going back to complain to Lin Yun!
Just then, a notification appeared.
[Random Quest: Kill and Submit 1 Mutant Gray Wolf]
[Quest Difficulty: C]
[Quest Reward: 5 Random Food Items]
Lin Yun was startled.
Why had a quest suddenly appeared?
But the reward was incredibly tempting.
Five random food items!
[How about it? Would you like to accept the random quest?]
Lin Yun gritted her teeth.
A gray wolf...
Those things probably weren’t easy to deal with.
Wolves were notoriously vengeful. If you failed to kill one in a single attempt, it might stalk you relentlessly afterward.
"Accept!"
[Random Quest accepted! Please complete the quest within five days.]
[There is no penalty for failing the quest.]
There was a time limit, but there was no punishment for failure.
That wasn’t too bad.
At that moment, Ghost Vine returned.
It immediately began chattering excitedly about the mutated gray wolf and the grudge between them.
Lin Yun finally understood why the system had suddenly issued the quest.
Chen Anna quietly watched from the side.
Once Ghost Vine finished explaining everything, she stepped forward.
"How is it?"
"There is a mutated gray wolf nearby. If I’m not mistaken, it’s probably targeting Yao An’an."
"Ghost Vine has already located its exact position."
Lin Yun paused.
"I’m going over to take a look. Are you coming?"
Lin Yun was definitely going.
She had already accepted the quest, after all.
As for Chen Anna...
She was rather curious about what the girl would choose.
Mutated gray wolves were not easy opponents.
"I’m going! I’m coming too!"
Chen Anna’s answer was firm.
Lin Yun was genuinely surprised.
She hadn’t expected Chen Anna to go this far for someone she had only recently met.
Anyone who didn’t know them might have thought the two had been friends for years.
"My name is Lin Yun."
Chen Anna froze for a moment.
Then she suddenly realized something.
She didn’t even know the other girl’s name.
"I... I’m Chen Anna."
"Let’s go."
The two followed Ghost Vine, cautiously making their way toward the mutated gray wolf’s location.
The mutated gray wolf’s ears twitched.
Hmm?
Three little mice were actually coming this way.
It wasn’t interested in the other two for now. They weren’t its prey today.
But if they insisted on coming closer...
Its eyes remained fixed on the entrance, a cold determination filling its gaze.
It would wear them down eventually.
Yao An’an’s shelter was located on the first floor of a residential building.
Not far away, the mutated gray wolf was hiding in the shadows beneath a gigantic plant.
After becoming bound to Lin Yun again, Ghost Vine’s strength had increased considerably, although its growth level still remained restricted by the level of the shelter.
At this moment, Ghost Vine could conceal its presence and quietly approach the mutated gray wolf.
Lin Yun and Chen Anna watched from a distance, neither daring to approach recklessly.
Ghost Vine silently crept closer.
Then, seizing the perfect opportunity, it suddenly lashed out with a vine!
The mutated gray wolf reacted incredibly quickly.
It sidestepped and avoided the attack.
Immediately afterward, it pounced fiercely toward Ghost Vine.
Ghost Vine instantly expanded to its full size.
Its vines twisted through the air with astonishing agility, whipping toward the mutated gray wolf like countless long whips.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Bloody welts appeared across the wolf’s body.
The mutated gray wolf let out an enraged roar.
Its sharp claws tore into Ghost Vine, leaving several wounds across its body.
Then the wolf suddenly froze.
It recognized that aura.
That familiar shape.
That damn vine...
It was the same Ghost Vine from the mountain!
[Demon Vine! You actually managed to come down from the mountain?!]
Ghost Vine completely ignored the wolf’s shock.
Its vines continued lashing toward the mutated gray wolf relentlessly.
