With the Blade of Certain Death assisting her, Bai Cheng believed it wouldn't be difficult to obtain an employee card in the early stages.
At least, it wouldn't be very difficult during the safe period.
Bai Cheng wanted to repeat her old trick. Although the number of White Hyenas gathering around the train was increasing, it had no effect on her.
"Visibility is limited at night, and wolves shouldn't be as impulsive as those foolish Hyenas during the day," Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow.
Is there a method with low danger and high fault tolerance?
Her gaze fell upon the stone spear she had just used for grilling: "If I tie the Blade of Certain Death to the tip, wouldn't it become a Blade of Certain Death long spear..."
Although she didn't have rope, Bai Cheng was a girl, and she had hair ties!
Bai Cheng directly pulled off her hair tie, and her smooth white hair instantly fell onto her shoulders.
She wrapped the hair tie around a few times, but the connection between the dagger and the stone spear was still incredibly loose; it simply couldn't be used like this.
"This will probably send the dagger flying with one swing..." Bai Cheng frowned, "It would be troublesome if the Blade of Certain Death fell outside the safe zone."
Her gaze shifted downwards, fixating on the white over-the-knee socks on her leg.
Bai Cheng didn't hesitate, decisively taking off one of her shoes and socks, and not forgetting to sniff them at her nose.
"Hiss, sour."
She quickly used the stocking to reinforce the Blade of Certain Death and the stone spear a second time.
After shaking it again, Bai Cheng was now certain the dagger wouldn't easily fly off.
After all, she didn't need to stab through a wolf's belly with the dagger; just being able to make a cut on their bodies would be enough.
"This level is sufficient," Bai Cheng looked at the few White Hyenas lurking nearby, waiting for an opportunity. They were hidden in the Silent Night, their crimson eyes constantly flickering under the dim firelight.
Bai Cheng picked up a piece of hyena meat, then got off the train and took two steps forward before throwing it out.
With a thud, the fresh red meat, stained with fallen leaves, rolled a short distance and stopped not far from a White Hyena.
The enticing smell of blood instantly spread, causing the surrounding White Hyenas to drool uncontrollably.
Standing by, Bai Cheng suddenly understood when she saw that these wolves still hadn't attacked her.
"It seems these creatures all know they can't attack the train."
However, Bai Cheng didn't think these creatures were smart; it was more likely that they had been implanted with some kind of directive by the system.
Otherwise, if all creatures were as foolish as that Hyena, it would undoubtedly be too simple for survivors to kill these beasts by exploiting the rules.
Of course, it was also possible that the creatures in Silent Night were smarter and more dangerous.
Facing the fresh hyena meat so close at hand, the White Hyena in front of her remained wary, not daring to rush forward and tear at it.
But perhaps due to extreme hunger, another White Hyena not far away couldn't hold back first. It suddenly rushed forward and bit into the hyena meat.
It bared its teeth, letting out a low warning growl, and the White Hyena beside it immediately became anxious, wanting to rush forward and snatch and tear at the meat.
The other White Hyena, with the meat in its mouth, had no intention of fighting; instead, it immediately picked up the meat and turned to run away.
Both White Hyenas were focused on the meat at this moment and had no defenses against Bai Cheng whatsoever.
In their eyes, Bai Cheng was merely prey. How could a hunter guard against its prey?
At this time, the two wolves were only a little over two meters away from Bai Cheng, with at least one meter of that distance still within the safety barrier. Coupled with the length of the stone spear, it was already completely sufficient.
Seeing the White Hyena with the hyena meat about to leave, Bai Cheng no longer hesitated. She immediately gripped the end of the stone spear tightly and thrust it out forcefully.
The next second, the tip of the Blade of Certain Death easily sliced open the wolf's hind leg.
Bai Cheng's movements barely paused as she immediately swung the stone spear towards the other White Hyena nearby.
That wolf reacted extremely quickly, almost instantly turning and adopting a defensive stance.
But unfortunately, it was still grazed on its paw by the Blade of Certain Death, which swept horizontally from the ground.
Normally, such a situation wouldn't even be considered an injury to them, as it wouldn't affect their combat effectiveness at all.
And indeed, this wolf immediately counterattacked.
It lowered its body, but before it could even leap, black curses already covered its entire body, and in almost an instant, it gasped its last breath and collapsed to the ground.
This sudden situation occurred almost instantaneously. The other White Hyenas hidden in the darkness seemed to sense that Bai Cheng had now left the safe zone, and they immediately swarmed out!
Darkness enveloped all sides, leaves rustled, and countless crimson eyes flickered back and forth, moving rapidly.
The White Hyenas hidden in the darkness were far more numerous than Bai Cheng had imagined!
And their speed was incredibly fast, leaving only afterimages in Bai Cheng's vision.
Almost instantly, three White Hyenas leaped out from the front, left, and right directions, flutter directly towards Bai Cheng.
However, Bai Cheng was certainly no more than a meter from the safety barrier behind her. She had been fully focused and had been moving backward while killing the two White Hyenas.
She just hadn't expected these White Hyenas to be so fast.
Bai Cheng wildly swung the stone spear. The moment she took a step back, she heard a dull thud.
In her panic, she felt that she had cut two wolves' bodies, but the stone spear in her hand was also struck by a force, causing it to slip from her grasp.
The White Hyena slammed into the transparent barrier in front of her, thud!
Bai Cheng was also so startled that she fell onto the ground, her small face pale.
"Phew... close call, that was dangerous!"
At this moment, the faint bonfire she had lit earlier had completely extinguished, and the surroundings plunged into darkness.
Bai Cheng couldn't observe the situation in front of her. She immediately prepared to get up and return to the railcar first.
As her hand braced against the ground, she happened to touch a branch.
Bai Cheng immediately took out her lighter and lit it. The dim firelight instantly dispelled the surrounding darkness.
She saw the few White Hyenas in front of her sniffing something on their companion's bodies. As the firelight illuminated them, the group of White Hyenas instantly scattered, running away as if fleeing.
Bai Cheng was somewhat puzzled: "Did they sense the danger of the Blade of Certain Death?"
Under the illumination of the firelight, she looked at the three White Hyena corpses in front of her and suddenly understood.
Bai Cheng had indeed cut two wolves' bodies, while the last White Hyena had crashed into the Blade of Certain Death itself.
The dagger was still impaled in its belly, which was why Bai Cheng's stone spear had slipped from her hand.
In just a short moment, even Bai Cheng wouldn't have expected that she had killed five wolves.
"If their meat were edible, I'd really be rich now," Bai Cheng pouted, feeling a wave of regret.
However, what made her even happier was that she had still successfully obtained the White Hyena's employee card.
Although the meat couldn't be eaten, they still dropped leather!
This was also crucial material for Bai Cheng, and it wasn't heavy.
As these corpses automatically decomposed, Bai Cheng confirmed there was no danger around her three times before she retrieved her weapon. Only then did she carefully move all the leather onto the railcar.
A total of 10 pieces of leather.
And at this moment, below the screen on the railcar, several infinite coins and a white employee card, which had already been automatically generated, were flashing.
The screen also displayed several messages, occupying the entire screen.
