The Shelter Game: Me, Starting with a Tenfold Drop Rate

"What's happening?"

The five, awakened by the sudden howl of wolves and seeing the dim blue lights appearing around them, were filled with confusion. For a moment, they even thought they were seeing fireflies.

It wasn't until William threw a torch towards the blue lights that they got a clear view of what was going on. With that, a chill spread from their feet throughout their bodies.

"Wolves... it's a pack of wolves!" William's face turned pale with fear, his voice trembling, "Weren't they at the foot of the mountain? How did they get here all of a sudden?"

"Captain! We seem to be surrounded by wolves... What do we do now?" one of the team members nearly wet his pants in fear.

These players had only been in the Other world for a few days, having only faced pigmen. In real life, they had never experienced a scenario of being surrounded by a pack of wolves.

Another howl echoed through the skies.

The Gale Demon Wolves, as if given an order, rushed at William and his team like a tide!

"Quick! Grab your weapons and fight these beasts." William shouted. But before his words could even die down, a Gale Demon Wolf had already pounced.

He quickly dodged, but another man behind him wasn't so lucky.

The man had no time to react and was knocked to the ground. He tried to protect himself with his arm, only to hear a "crack," as his arm was bitten off.

Blood spurted out like a fountain!

"My leg! My leg has been bitten off!"

"Captain, save me, please!" The other two men also let out heartbreaking screams.

The Gale Demon Wolves, as if starved for a long time, started feasting on the three fallen men, even biting through their bellies and pulling out the bloody intestines...

At this point, only William and Vicky remained.

Back to back, they watched as more and more Gale Demon Wolves gathered. A sense of despair welled up in their hearts.

"Captain... what do we do now?" Vicky's voice trembled as she asked. Her delicate face had long lost its color due to fear.

Vicky was just a support healer mage with no combat abilities.

Just then, she felt a strong force pushing her forward. She lost control and fell in front of the Gale Demon Wolves... She froze. Turning her head, she saw that William had taken this opportunity to run!

"You!" Vicky's face was filled with grief and anger. She never expected to be betrayed at this critical moment.

As she watched the Gale Demon Wolves closing in, she closed her eyes in despair, a tear sliding down her cheek...

Boom!

Just as Vicky was silently waiting to be eaten by these beasts, a loud noise suddenly echoed in her ears, followed by a wave of heat. She slowly opened her eyes, only to see the ferocious Gale Demon Wolves engulfed in flames, howling and writhing in agony.

Following the glow, Vicky saw a figure slowly approaching, with a cute mythical creature wobbling at his side.

"It's him!" Vicky exclaimed, her face filled with disbelief.

"Hey, are you okay?" Irving asked indifferently.

Vicky, with a myriad of emotions evident in her gaze, hurriedly stood up, aware of the imminent danger.

"Cast your healing talent and stick close to me." Irving directed, his deep gaze focused on a massive Gale Demon Wolf in the distance, which was staring intently back at him… If he was not mistaken, this was the Alpha of the pack.

A high-pitched howl echoed through the air.

Dozens of Gale Demon Wolves circled around, forming an oppressive ring. The tension in the air made it hard to breathe.

[Do you wish to cast Soul Plunder on the "Gale Demon Wolf" immediately?]

Looking at the charred corpses of the toasty Gale Demon Wolves, Irving decisively chose: Yes!

[Soul Plunder in progress…]

[Plunder successful!]

The burnt Gale Demon Wolves, as if awakened, slowly stood up. One, two, three, four... in the span of a few breaths, nine Gale Demon Wolves had rallied to Irving's side.

The sight nearly made Vicky scream.

Until she saw the nine resurrected Wind Demon Wolves come to Irving's side, the shock in her heart could no longer be controlled. She stuttered, "You... you're a mage too? And you can resurrect... This is...this is against the heavens!"

Irving chuckled and chose not to elaborate.

In fact, he was also surprised. Previously, casting Soul Plunder on three low-rank pigmen had already been the limit of his mental power. But the Gale Demon Wolves were on a higher level than the pigmen, and he had miraculously revived nine of them.

More importantly, the reason he could revive nine was that there were only nine Gale Demon Wolf corpses on the ground... That means this isn't even the limit!

Irving could distinctly feel a weak energy source inside the staff continuously pouring into him.

However, this was far from enough.

"This staff indeed enhanced my mental strength significantly, but the crucial factor is her." Irving thought, glancing at Vicky, who was looking at him with wide, admiring eyes.

Roar!

With a sorrowful howl, the nine Gale Demon Wolves acted like loyal guards, battling with their brethren. Irving didn't sit idle either. As soon as a Gale Demon Wolf fell, he would immediately cast[Soul Plunder].

A peculiar balance emerged momentarily as Gale Demon Wolves kept falling and rising again...

However Irving's deep gaze was fixed intently in one direction, right at the leader of the wolf pack.

The massive Gale Demon Wolf leader on the distant hillside seemed to sense something odd about this human. Its deep blue eyes narrowed into thin lines. With a roar, it rushed forward like a bolt of lightning, arriving in front of Irving within seconds!

Upon seeing the arrival of the alpha wolf, the surrounding Gale Demon Wolves retreated to the side one after another.

In contrast, Irving barely twitched his mind, directing the Gale Demon Wolves, whose souls he had plundered, to launch the first round of attack.

To be precise, it was a probe. He wanted to test the power of the alpha wolf first.

The next moment, he saw the Gale Demon Wolves he controlled pounce. But they were either brutally gutted by the alpha wolf, had their throats torn, or were swatted away with a single blow.

"I've really met a formidable opponent this time." Irving muttered to himself.

At this moment, the alpha wolf was lunging towards him. Its bloody mouth wide open, revealing rows of sharp and hard fangs.

"Watch out!" Vicky couldn't help but exclaim.

Unexpectedly, even as the alpha wolf was about to pounce on him, Irving stood quietly in place.

As the distance closed, he could even smell the strong stench of blood emanating from the alpha wolf's open mouth.

The massive alpha wolf, with its gaping mouth, could swallow Irving whole.

"Now!" A cold light flashed in Irving's eyes as he suddenly extended his staff.

He was actually waiting for a chance. He knew he was no match for the alpha wolf in close combat. If he used fireball magic directly, the wolf, not being a fool, would definitely dodge.

A massive fireball suddenly formed on his staff, heading straight for the alpha wolf's open mouth.

The alpha wolf no longer had a chance to change direction, as the distance was too close.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the fireball exploded in the alpha wolf's mouth. Its massive body, like a torn rag, fell straight to the ground.

The fireball continued to burn rampantly in its body...

Vicky stood frozen in her tracks, unable to recover for a long time. The remaining Gale Demon Wolves, witnessing the defeat of their leader, let out a series of whimpers, before scattering and fleeing in disarray.

At this moment, Irving finally let out a sigh of relief, "The leader of the Gale Demon Wolves, I should get quite a few good things from defeating it..."

Just as he was about to move forward to check...

There was a sudden rustling noise from the nearby bushes, and a figure walked out from them.

It was William, who had fled earlier.
