Ending (Extra Chapter for Ally Wuliangshan Dormitory Old Five)

But in that split second, illuminated by the faint firelight, Li Wei's gaze met the eyes of the Black Wolf. For some inexplicable reason, Li Wei had a strange feeling that his strike wouldn't hit.

Even though the Black Wolf had been shot with an arrow, it still had the strength to dodge. It was too powerful.

Furthermore, its sharp claws seemed to have already severely injured Penny, who had been knocked to the ground and was unable to assist.

Now, it was like a master duelist looking down at Li Wei, seemingly predicting his every move.

Its gaze seemed to say, "Slow, too slow!"

Its Agility was definitely higher than Li Wei's.

He couldn't possibly repeat his feat of stabbing the Gray Wolf a few days ago!

This feeling flashed through his mind like lightning. Without any warning, Li Wei, like a javelin thrower, threw the Wooden Spear upwards when he was less than three meters from the Black Wolf, flicking his wrist and instantly changing his grip.

That's right, you can predict my prediction, you can be faster than my speed, but in the face of the laws of physics, all that is just fleeting smoke!

Especially at such a close distance, and with Li Wei having already gained some momentum from his run, even with the slight delay caused by the change in grip, he still held a significant advantage!

Of course, there was also the most important possibility: this Black Wolf might have never seen a javelin throw before. It wouldn't understand the significance of such a subtle change in movement.

This was also one of the main reasons Li Wei was willing to take the risk.

However, in reality, as Li Wei changed his grip on the Wooden Spear and adjusted its angle, quickly gathering his strength, the Black Wolf suddenly lunged straight at Li Wei at full speed. It could indeed seize every possible opportunity in battle; it couldn't be fooled.

By this point, it was too late for Li Wei to switch from throwing to thrusting.

And in that electrifying moment, the Black Wolf, which had been rapidly lunging, suddenly stumbled imperceptibly. Its hind leg was tugged by Penny, though it quickly broke free.

But for Li Wei, this was truly a golden opportunity.

Especially since he had maintained his composure, his heart rate, breathing, and even his entire body's muscles and bones had entered a natural state. At that instant, the Wooden Spear left his hand, piercing the Black Wolf's throat with pinpoint accuracy at close range.

It collapsed and died without a sound.

The professional bonus from the Two-Star Hunter Card seemed to have also been effective for throwing the Wooden Spear.

In addition, the body coordination brought about by 8 points of Agility also played a significant role.

Of course, the biggest contributor to this battle was none other than Penny.

Li Wei couldn't help but look at her with newfound respect.

Regardless, he had to acknowledge this debt of gratitude.

A shrill wolf howl sounded again, but quickly faded into the distance. The remaining two Gray Wolves fled. They had originally been assigned to howl from the southeast as a feint, while the Black Wolf would circle around from another direction to attack.

If the camp entrance were breached, a massacre would truly ensue.

However, with the death of the leader Black Wolf, these two Gray Wolves immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

[You have killed a strong, cunning Alpha Wolf. You have gained 60 points of Hunting Experience. The remaining Gray Wolves were so terrified that they no longer dared to approach your family camp. The Wolf Menace Task is resolved. You have gained an additional 100 points of Hunting Experience, 10 Family Contribution Points, for a total of 33 points.]

[Due to your outstanding performance, you have automatically replaced Phila as the temporary Head of the Family for one month. During this period, you can issue family main quests. If the main quest is completed perfectly, you will receive a good completion evaluation.]

[Friendly Reminder: After one month, if no family member has Family Contribution Points exceeding yours, you will continue to serve as Head of the Family.]

[Friendly Reminder: Please issue a family main quest as soon as possible, otherwise, it may trigger chaotic Plot Kills among family members. If any family member dies unexpectedly for any reason during your tenure as Head of the Family, including being eliminated by a Plot Kill, your prestige will be severely damaged. Of course, if you believe you can control the situation, there is no need to issue a family main quest.]

[Friendly Reminder: Missing family members will randomly appear after this month's summary. Their identities will be determined based on the best performer during the past period.]

Line after line of information quickly scrolled by, and Li Wei couldn't help but feel a little excited.

However, he didn't delay at all. He first helped Penny up. Her body was soaked in blood, and there were several deep wounds on her back, her skin torn open.

"Mom, do we have any herbs?"

Li Wei shouted to Phila. She was still in a daze, mainly because everything that had just happened was too fast. By the time she reacted, the battle was over, and even the Wolf Menace Task was resolved.

"Oh, yes, yes, my poor child."

After a moment of stunned silence, Phila finally reacted. She dropped the Wooden Spear and ran to the warehouse to search. Li Wei then noticed that Penny was almost unconscious, looking on the verge of death.

He had no choice but to pick her up and take her into the house.

Meanwhile, Phila finally became reliable. She had Li Wei hold a torch while she treated Penny's wounds. After a lot of busy work, Penny slowly woke up.

Great, it looks like she won't die.

Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief. Becoming the Head of the Family changed his perspective.

"Rumble!"

A thunderclap sounded, and the rain poured down like a curtain, as if opening a new chapter...

The heavy rain lasted all night.

At dawn, Li Wei woke from his sleep. He first checked on Penny's condition. Fortunately, there were no signs of fever, meaning her wounds weren't infected. This was crucial. The Level One Awakening of the Life attribute was practically a divine skill.

From this perspective, it was indeed necessary to allow family members to make moderate progress and level up. Otherwise, if Penny had died today, he, as the Head of the Family, would have followed in Phila's footsteps and become a "half-day" patriarch.

"How do you feel?"

Li Wei asked.

"Pretty bad. It might take me over ten days to recover. During this time, the family will depend entirely on you. Take good care of Mom." Penny said weakly, but her gaze was remarkably calm. Clearly, she had also gained a lot from this experience.

"Alright! During this time, I'll go out to find Iron Ore, chop wood, and hunt prey to prepare supplies for the winter. Without the threat of wolves, Mom can also gather Wild Vegetables and Mushrooms around the area while cooking. When you're better, we'll build a Blacksmith Shop together."

After Li Wei finished speaking, a line of text immediately appeared before his eyes.

[Do you wish to set this as the family's main quest for the next month?]

He naturally chose to confirm.

The next second, his three Family Contribution Points were consumed, and new information appeared.

[A new family main quest has been issued. Within the next month, you will need to gather at least one unit of Iron Ore, three units of Wood, and two units of Prey. Upon completion, you will receive eight Family Contribution Points. Any excess can be donated to the family for additional Family Contribution Points or kept as your private property.]

[Phila needs to gather at least five units of Wild Vegetables and Mushrooms, be responsible for the old Cow's daily grazing, and prepare the family's three daily meals.]

[Penny needs to rest and recover from her injuries. Once her condition improves, you will need to assist her in building a Blacksmith Shop.]

[Warning: The family main quest cannot be delayed for too long. If it is delayed to forty days, the family main quest will be declared a failure, and the Head of the Family will receive a lower completion evaluation score.]
