Why is my anime art style so weird?

The wolves were startled by his actions, and their approach slowed down again.

Xu Ming took the opportunity to observe the large rock behind him.

He then realized that the cunning wolves had circled around behind the large rock and then piled on top of each other like a human pyramid!

Xu Ming's lips twitched twice.

As expected of a world rife with the bizarre, even wild wolves have become spirits.

Soon, the pack of wolves swarmed around them again, like flies that couldn't be driven away.

"Xu Mingjun, why don't you let me go instead!"

Haruyuki Arita's small body trembled violently, yet he tried his best to show a fearless attitude.

"Don't rush, I'll need you when the crucial moment comes. But now is not the time."

As he spoke, Xu Ming opened his backpack and quickly began rummaging through it.

He quickly found a roll of medical gauze and a small bottle of medical alcohol in the first aid kit.

Xu Ming made a simple incendiary bomb out of gauze and bottled alcohol, lit it, and threw it directly at the wolves that surrounded him.

Peng!

Amidst flying glass shards, the ignited alcohol, emitting pale blue flames, scattered in all directions.

Many wolves were splashed with alcohol, and their fur was immediately ignited. The burning wolves howled in agony and began to run around wildly, setting more wolves ablaze.

The wolves that weren't burned began to avoid their own kind, plunging the pack into complete chaos.

Thump thump!

The burning wolves jumped into the lake like dumplings being dropped into a pot, and a small number of wolves were so frightened that they simply ran away.

But after a while, the remaining nearly half of the wolf pack surrounded Xu Ming again.

Sweat dripped from Xu Ming's forehead.

"Xu Mingjun!"

Haruyuki Arita called out again, his voice filled with urgency.

This time, its gaze was incredibly firm.

Xu Ming gritted his teeth; it seemed that this was the only method he had left.

"Feel sorry!"

Xu Ming threw Haruyuki Arita into the wolf pack.

After a while, black mist filled the air, and the 'Silver Raven' clad in armor reappeared.

As soon as he appeared, he immediately attacked the wolf with his sharp claws.

They could either bring their five fingers together and stab the wolf with a knife, or kick the wolf's head hard with their metal feet.

However, this silver humanoid monster did not deter the wolves; instead, it aroused their ferocity.

The wolves pounced on the 'Silver Raven', scratching and biting him.

Fortunately, although the armor on 'Silver Raven' was not thick, it was still metal, so it was no problem to deal with flesh and blood.

He began to slaughter the wolves, who howled in agony.

At this moment, some of the cunning wolves bypassed the 'Silver Crow' and pounced on Xu Ming!

Just as Xu Ming was hesitating about whether to scare them again with the spirit-capturing phone,

The sky suddenly turned blood-red.

The blood moon has finally risen!

Splash! Splash!

The blood moon had just risen, and ripples spread across the calm lake before it began to descend at a visible speed.

Before long, Xu Ming noticed that a corner of a cave was slowly emerging on the mountain wall opposite the lake.

There's no mistake, this is the 'Vanishing Cave'!

Just then.

Awooo~!

Suddenly, a loud wolf howl echoed from the forest behind the wolf pack.

The wolf howls were incredibly eerie, almost indistinguishable from the cries of ghosts.

The wolf pack, which was launching a frenzied attack, suddenly stopped, and Xu Ming could actually read the look of terror in their eyes.

Ouch!

The wolves fled as if they had encountered some terrifying monster, tails between their legs.

what happened?

Xu Ming quickly found out the answer.

Under the blood-red moonlight, three strange 'wolves' emerged from the forest.

If a creature that is a size larger than a Tibetan Mastiff, with pupils that faintly glow blood red, bone-like armor on its head, and teeth about the thickness of Xu Ming's fingers can be called a 'wolf', then...

Xu Ming's expression was serious.

This must be the mutated wolf mentioned in the intelligence report, the one that caused the SAT heavy losses and survived multiple shots.

'Silver Raven' retreated to Xu Ming's side.

"Xu Mingjun, what should we do now?!"

His voice was filled with anxiety.

Xu Ming did not answer, but turned to look at the center of the lake.

By this time, the lake water had receded by more than half, revealing a huge cave on the moss-covered rock wall.

"Let's go!"

Xu Ming made a decisive decision and led him towards the lake.

Chapter 85 Snake God

The lake water had not completely receded by then, but Xu Ming didn't care about that and stepped into the lake.

The lake water immediately rose above his calves, and the muddy ground beneath the water acted like glue, firmly sticking his feet to the surface.

With the lake water and mud creating double resistance, Xu Ming wanted to run, but he couldn't run at all. He could only take one step, pull his foot out of the mud, and then take the next step with the other foot.

The speed was two minutes slower than normal walking.

The three mutated wolves quickly caught up to the lakeside, then leaped into the lake and chased after Xu Ming.

However, nature is fair.

The mutated wolves soon suffered the same 'slowed down' treatment.

The one man and three wolves moved forward little by little, like a slow-motion scene in a movie.

Four legs are still a little faster than two legs, and the mutated wolf gradually approached Xu Ming.

Xu Ming suddenly turned around, picked up his phone, and took a picture of the mutated wolf.

Click!

A flash of purplish-gold light appeared, and the mutated wolf let out a painful howl before collapsing into the mud.

Xu Ming vaguely saw that a large amount of black mist was constantly dissipating from their bodies, and the mutated wolves immediately shrank as if they had been shrunk, gradually returning to the size of normal wolves.

Seeing this, Xu Ming seemed to understand something.

If he wasn't mistaken, this black, misty negative energy was the culprit behind the wolf's mutation.

Wolves are cunning and ferocious by nature, which naturally makes them more likely to attract negative energy.

After absorbing a large amount of negative energy, the wild wolf mutated into a special species similar to a half-demon.

As for the source of negative energy, is there even a need to ask?

Xu Ming looked up at the blood moon hanging high in the sky.

The three mutated wolves were forcibly purified and then brutally beaten by the 'Silver Crow', so they immediately tucked their tails between their legs and ran away.

The mutated wolves that the heavily armed SAT squad couldn't handle were easily dealt with by Xu Ming with a single photograph.

Xu Ming was able to slow down and cautiously approach the cave.

The lake water had now dropped to ankle level.

Xu Ming activated his 'night vision' ability and surveyed the cave in front of him.

The cave entrance is an irregular semi-circle, with its edges covered in moss and various aquatic plants, and a muddy smell emanates from the cave.

Apart from being a bit damp, it seems no different from an ordinary cave... As for dampness, how could it not be damp when it's constantly soaked in water?

After observing for a while, Xu Ming slowly walked into the cave.

The cave walls were covered with dense moss, and the various strangely shaped protrusions on the walls gave Xu Ming the illusion that he was walking through a monster's esophagus.

The passage inside the cave slopes slightly upwards. After walking for about ten minutes, the ground beneath our feet gradually dried.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xu Ming suddenly felt a bright light appear before his eyes.

A huge cave appeared before him.

When he saw the scene inside the cave, Xu Ming couldn't help but hold his breath.

Inside the cave is a pool of water ten meters in diameter. In the center of the pool is the corpse of a red-haired woman, tightly bound by an iron chain as thick as an arm.

The woman's body appears to have been tied up here for quite some time.

The iron chain was almost unrecognizable, covered with rust, moss, and grayish-brown stalactite-like substances.

Strangely, although the female corpse was somewhat pale and swollen, there was no sign of it turning into bones. In fact, the original appearance of the female corpse could still be vaguely identified, which was none other than Kobayashi Rindou, the former second seat of the Ten Heroes.

Her signature long, blood-red hair floated on the water's surface, swaying gently with the ripples.

There was an opening at the top of the cave, through which the blood-red moonlight shone, forming a blood-red beam that shone on the corpse of Kobayashi Rindan in the center of the pool.
