Chapter 204 Siberia

The cold winter in Siberia always comes earlier and goes later than other places. With the possible exception of the Inuit of Greenland, perhaps no one will experience longer winters than those in Siberia.

Winter hunting here starts in September and ends in October.

Then from November to April of the next year, there is a long cold winter for six months. People will neither go out to work nor stay away from home, but stay in wooden houses with well-stocked supplies. , have been waiting for the arrival of summer.

Only the hunters along the Yenisei River are ready to head to the Siberian taiga before the cold winter arrives.

"Tanya, are you in the house?"

The roar of the canoe's diesel engine came from the distant river.

"Liu Bai" barked twice, but judging from its cheerful look, it had already recognized the identity of the visitor.

"Uncle Alexander."

The girl in a white robe stood up and looked in the direction of the river.

"Are you still so taciturn..."

A tall man named Alexander walked from the muddy land carrying a large backpack.

He looked at the girl in front of him, couldn't help but shook his head, and handed her the backpack and bread in his hand:

"The bullets and bread are here, and the gasoline for the sleigh is placed by the river - it's going to snow soon. Is it okay for you to be here alone?"

“Last year it was just me and ‘Liubai’, so there will be no problem this year.”

The girl answered, her blue eyes as deep as Lake Baikal filled with calmness. She patted the falling snow on her body and looked at Alexander: "Where are the others? Do you need my help?"

"unnecessary."

Alexander shook his head and said: "There are fewer hunters this year than last year, but the military has called in some volunteers. In terms of manpower, there won't be a big problem - what I'm worried about is how many people can survive. Come down."

Having said this, Alexander looked to the east with some worry: "To survive the 'winter wave' in Siberia, a mere four months of training is simply not enough."

"They are all red card explorers, four of them per sentry point, there won't be much of a problem."

The white-haired girl said briefly.

"I hope so."

Alexander sighed: "It would be nice if there were more experienced hunters like you."

Tanya nodded without saying a word, lowered her head and got into the wooden house made of logs next to her, and handed Alexander a linen bag that still exuded a fishy smell.

"What is this?" The man took it, looked inside curiously, and was startled: "Wolf King?!"

His hand slipped and the contents of the bag fell to the ground, rolling far away on the snow.

It was a gray wolf head that had frozen solid.

It was a little different from the ordinary wolf head. This wolf had a long horn on its head. Under the long horn, a deep bullet hole penetrated the skull.

"Liu Bai" barked loudly at the wolf head on the ground, but with a look from Tanya, it quickly became quiet.

The girl walked to the wolf's head, picked it up, put it in a bag, and handed it to Alexander again:

"This year's 'winter wave' is earlier than ever, so you should pay attention."

Looking at the wolf head in the bag, Alexander was silent for a moment and suddenly sighed:

"Is this the fifteenth wolf king you have killed?"

"Yes." The girl nodded, very quietly.

"Are you only eighteen years old... Is it too early to join the 'Hunting' so early?"

"If there had been a better hunter, it wouldn't have been my turn."

The girl replied quietly.

The man was thinking silently, suddenly shook his head, and looked at Tanya with firm eyes:

"I understand! You guard the sentry point first! As soon as November arrives, we will set off!"

After speaking, Alexander and the girl communicated some other precautions, then turned and left.

Looking at Alexander's back, the white-haired girl stood outside the wooden house for a while.

As the roar of the diesel engine gradually faded away, she got back into the wooden shed and placed the backpack Alexander gave her on the table.

After winter, all the brown bears in Siberia went to hibernate, leaving only some rodents like mice. She found a tree trunk, hung the bread on it, and then wrapped a circle of plastic film around the tree.

As for other hunted fish and wolf meat, they are hung on the beams outside the house, which can also survive this winter.

"The fifth winter...is about to begin..."

Tanya held up the felt hat on her head, looked at the setting sun, picked up the shotgun by the wall, and walked towards the forest with "Liu Bai".

.

The edge of the coniferous forest.

Dozens of strong monsters that looked like humans, only with heads like gray wolves, were staring eagerly into the depths of the forest.

Although Tanya could not be seen, the cold wind from the west still blew the girl's weak body fragrance into their noses.

The Siberian Husky Liubai is lying quietly in the snow nest next to the girl.

The girl was holding a pair of night vision binoculars and observing the "wolves" in the distance.

The coniferous forest is full of traps set by hunters, and wolves will not enter rashly without a leader.

Their leader was shot in the head by a bullet from Tanya when he was testing at the edge of the woods, and he was killed with a single blow.

The remaining wolves dispersed in a hurry, and did not gather again until a few days later at the edge of the forest.

Tanya thought for a moment and took off the shotgun from her back.

Although it is just an old Mosin Nagant bolt-action rifle, because it uses M1908 rifle ammunition that is still in service, it is a rare World War I old gun that can still be used in modern times.

The Mosin Nagant lance in Tanya's hand is a relic of her grandfather. It has been carefully maintained, and its accuracy and accuracy are no less than those of some active sniper rifles.

Tanya aimed the scope at a werewolf near the edge of the pack and pulled the trigger.

The 7.62mm copper-nickel jacketed lead core bullet, suppressed by the BRAMIT silencer at the muzzle, emits a short jet sound and slides out of the gun chamber.

A tall werewolf 250 meters away raised its head silently and slowly collapsed.

The wolves didn't respond. She pulled the bolt of the gun, ejected a shell, and continued to aim at the other side of the wolves, where there were two lone werewolves.

"boom!"

The bullet flew out again, and the werewolf at the back suddenly fell down. Hearing the movement behind him, the werewolf in front turned to look, but the bullet flying from behind his head blew away the Tianling Cap.

Pulling the gun bolt twice quickly, Tanya took a look at her magic power and [gun body stabilization] skill, loaded a bullet without hesitation, and aimed at the three lone werewolves again!

After Tanya quietly hunted down about one-third of the members, one werewolf finally noticed something was wrong. It raised its head and tried to issue a warning.

However, as soon as it raised its head, it was shot through the throat by a bullet flying from a distance.

However, the body that fell in the center of the team still revealed Tanya's presence.

The werewolves dispersed in a hurry.

The girl stood up from her snow nest, and the sled dog beside her roared and rushed out.

Snow slipped from her white cloak like a ghost in the tundra.

.

"Ding ding dong dong——"

The crystal cores that Tanya took out from the werewolf's head were piled into a small mountain on the table in the wooden shed.

She looked at the accumulation of more than a hundred crystal nuclei on the table and couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

These werewolves are all the "descendants" of an "abnormal body" in the Kadchan underground city that fell thirty years ago.

Their strength is not very strong, but their reproductive capacity is amazing, coupled with Siberia's rich biological resources. Every summer, they hunt a large number of tundra creatures and condense a large amount of magic power. When winter comes and food is scarce, they will break out of the blocked area.

If we leave them alone and allow them to attack the defense line, they will cause the pollution area to spread.

Therefore, every winter, a large number of hunters like Tanya's parents and grandfather go into the depths of Siberia to hunt wolves.

This kind of battle between hunters and wolves lasted for more than twenty years. The elite Siberian hunters were almost exhausted, and the rest were supplemented by soldiers and explorers.

Tanya's father and mother also never came back after a "hunt".

Tanya was raised by her grandfather, who taught her how to use a shotgun.

Three years ago, her grandfather also died of illness in a hunter's cabin in winter due to a fall and overwork.

At that time, she had hunted six wolf kings with her grandfather - although most of the time, it was her grandfather who pulled the trigger while she watched.

"One day, you are going to kill the "White Wolf King" and avenge your parents..."

As the old man lay dying, what he could not forget was still his mission as a hunter.

"For the motherland...for the hometown...kill them...!"

Although Tanya does not have much memory of her deceased parents, she listens to the old man's teachings.

She took over the Mosin Nagant, which symbolized the status of a hunter, from the old man's hands, and two more years passed.

The trophies in her hands were piled into a hill, and the number of wolf kings she had killed reached fifteen.

She finally had the opportunity, like her parents, to participate in the "hunting" of the "White Werewolf".

.

"Bah! Is this Siberia?! A place where even dogs don't come!"

"But you're not only here, but you're also going to stay here for a long time. Don't you feel very happy? Woof! Come and eat the bones!"

"George Zoya, I FXXK your mother!"

[Superman] Siegel couldn't help but frown at the insults coming from the rotating helicopter.

"Shut up! We have arrived at Kadchan! I don't want Lady Katrina to see your stupidity!"

"First, it's George Zoya first..."

"Shut up!"

[Superman] Siegel's voice made [Wolf] shut his mouth in aggrieved manner.

The "Robin Hood" beside him was snickering and was glared at by Siegel.

The helicopter circled around the ruins of the underground city and finally found the "employer".

"It's said to be an employer, but it's just an agent."

Nalia looked at the red figure standing at the foot of the mountain in the distance and frowned: "I heard that he is still a loser, and he will lead us to complete the hunting mission only if he redeems himself."

"In a place like Yemo City, do you think ordinary people have a chance of failure?"

[Colonel] Christie snorted coldly. His whole body was covered in a thick layer of military uniform, as if he was afraid of others seeing him.

But no one else cared.

Because they all know that, except for the captain and ace [Superman] Siegel, [Colonel] is the strongest among them all.

.

"[47] Team."

The helicopter landed in an open space at the foot of the mountain, and the other party took the initiative to greet several people: "You are late."

"Sorry, I wasted a little effort crossing the blockade and was almost discovered."

Siegel pointed to his companion behind him and said nonchalantly: "[Colonel]'s condition is not very good."

The woman in red nodded and looked around at the five people in front of her:

"[Superman], [Colonel], [Wolf], [Robin Hood], [Charlie's Angels]... you will follow me from now on."

"Then what should I call you?" Superman said with some evil intentions: "Miss Catalina? Ms. Catalina? Or Captain Anna?"

Siegel deliberately avoided the correct answer. His slightly frivolous approach caused a burst of laughter from the team members behind him.

Looking at Siegel's expression, the "agent's" expression darkened.

"Maybe I am guilty, but if this mission fails, your fate will only be worse than mine."

"How is that possible?" Siegel stopped teasing a little: "We just came out of a training camp, and we don't want to go back -"

"Captain Katarina, you can climb up alone from a hellish place like Cardchan Underground City. We recognize your strength. However, as the captain of the '47' team, I cannot hand over the command of the team to you unless - —”

[Superman] said while assuming a Jeet Kune Do stance: "You can beat me one-on-one according to the rules of the training camp!"

Hearing Siegel's provocation, the "agent" looked slightly cold, as if he didn't understand why an idiot would dare to provoke him under such circumstances.

"It's decided." She nodded: "I'll let you be a 'soldier'..."

The "agent" pointed at Siegel slightly, and the next second, the strong man named [Superman] was already lying on the ground under an invisible weight.

All the ice and ground within a fifteen-meter radius with Team 47 as the center shattered.

That’s all for today, Chapter 1 of Volume 3, there’s a lot of information to look up.
