Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The three teenagers were crouching in a corner while holding their heads.

They were so scared that they did not even notice Su Chen.

It seemed like they wanted to cry, but dare not let out any noise.

“Why are you here?” asked Su Chen while looking at the teenagers.

His voice shocked them so much that they curled up into a ball. 

Their bodies were trembling intensely.

“Hey, relax. I won’t hurt you.”

Su Chen said softly.

Upon hearing that, the teenagers finally loosened up a little bit.

The oldest teenager slowly raised up his head.

In front of him was a tall and sturdy young man. He also had a kind face.

Clearly, he was not a monster that would harm them.

In fact, he was more like a savior who had come to rescue them.

The teenager felt way more at ease.

He tapped the other two teenagers who were beside him. They were still scared out of their wits.

“Get up. Look, someone has come to save us.”

The other two teenagers slowly raised their heads and looked at Su Chen.

“What are you guys doing here?”

Su Chen asked again.

“We came here because we were curious. However, things were completely out of our expectations.”

“Not long after we entered, three wolves found and chased us.”

“We could not avoid them no matter what. Since we had no choice, we ran into this building.”

“But what we saw was…”

It seemed like they were going to cry. 

One of the teenagers pointed into the basement.

At the same time, an angry roar could be heard coming from that direction.

There was also the sound of a heavy object smashing against the wall.

That made the entire ground tremble.

The three teenagers immediately hugged each other out of fright while sobbing.

‘I’m sure the beast inside is up to no good.’

Su Chen thought to himself.

It was not a good idea to act rashly.

First, he needed a better understanding of the situation before making any decisions.

Su Chen squatted down and wrapped his arms around the teenagers.

He said softly, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Tell me, what did you see?”

Su Chen made the three teenagers feel safe.

The oldest teenager came back to his senses.

He looked at Su Chen and said in fear, “I… I saw a huge werewolf inside! It was much bigger than the wolves that chased us in. It was sitting on a high platform while eating some sort of corpse. Moreover, it was surrounded by internal organs. The ground was also covered in blood…”

The oldest teenager was unable to speak any further and ended up vomiting.

Su Chen patted his back and comforted him.

“It’s okay. You don’t have to be afraid. I won’t let it hurt you.”

Upon hearing Su Chen’s words, the teenagers nodded frantically.

“How did you guys get in?”

“We dug a hole beside the gate,” replied one of the teenagers.

Since Su Chen was around, he managed to find the courage to speak.

Su Chen recalled the newly dug pit he saw before entering this place.

It was indeed next to the main gate.

He could not help but smile.

These rascals were courting death.

The teenagers were confused when they saw his smile.

This was a life and death moment.

How could this person still be in the mood to smile?

Su Chen thought to himself, ‘I’ve already killed most of the mutated werewolves outside. However, leaving these teenagers by themselves is not a good idea. They might encounter other fierce beasts. Moreover, it’s already late. Things will only get more dangerous. It’s better for them to stay here first. After I’ve dealt with the werewolf, we can leave this place together.’

After making up his mind, Su Chen got up and looked around.

He found a corner with a thick wall that was rather well hidden.

Su Chen signaled the teenagers over.

Then, he instructed, “Stay here. Do not come out no matter what. Once I’ve settled everything, I’ll come for you guys. Again, do not come out no matter what, understand?”

“No! Big brother, please don’t go. It’s too dangerous!”

When the teenagers heard that Su Chen was going to confront the giant werewolf, they got so scared that they almost wet their pants. They cried and begged Su Chen to stay.

Su Chen comforted and patted them.

Then, he got up and left.

He walked into the basement.

The three teenagers watched from behind in terror.

All they could do was huddle together.

Su Chen soon spotted the high platform.

Based on what the teenagers said, this was where they saw the giant werewolf.

However, the place was empty.

There were only some scattered organs and blood on the floor.

Su Chen walked deeper into the basement.

The foul smell of blood in the air became stronger. It was almost unbearable.

Meanwhile, the walls were covered with streaks of red or purple marks.

Su Chen could feel some sticky liquid under his feet.

From time to time, he would see some indistinguishable waste scattered all over the ground. They could be either human or animal remains.

Su Chen tried his best to not step on them.

Simultaneously, the numbers on the screen of the nuclear radiation detector in his hand kept increasing.

It went from double digits to triple digits.

The place where the giant werewolf was staying was probably the location of the nuclear leak.

It must have mutated after absorbing the nuclear radiation energy, which was also the source of its power.

The werewolf most likely had immense strength.

However, this was not a problem for Su Chen.

About twenty minutes passed.

…

In the depths of the basement, a loud howl could be heard.

“Awoo!”

It was the giant werewolf.

“Crack. Crack.”

There were also the sounds of a machine crushing bones.

The giant werewolf had not eaten any fresh meat today, thus, becoming extremely irritable.

It grabbed a cow’s leg that had just been torn from the body and threw it.

The leg hit a machine and the impact smashed it into pieces.

However, the werewolf was still not satisfied.

It grabbed the leg again.

Using its giant claw, the werewolf began squeezing it.

Blood instantly gushed out.

The giant werewolf stretched out its long, barbed tongue and began licking its claw greedily.

As for the machines and equipment around this place, they were all smashed into pieces.

Everything had been torn apart. 

Even the thick steel walls had holes in them as if something had blasted through.

There were also deep scratch marks.

This was all done by the werewolf. 

Su Chen was only one wall away from the giant werewolf.

He was preparing himself to face the beast.

Even on the other side of the wall, he could hear the giant werewolf’s loud breathing.

There was also the sound of it licking its mouth.

At first, Su Chen stayed quiet.

He just took a quick peek to observe the space and environment.

This place was relatively empty.

There were only machine parts scattered on the ground along with some animal carcasses.

However, there was a huge gate behind the werewolf.

That gate should be the entrance to the number three reactor.

Once he was ready, Su Chen appeared in front of the giant werewolf..
