Because of the weight of the bomb, the arrow flew a little slower than normal, but still hit the target.
As expected, the bomb didn't kill the wolf, but even though the wolf was very strong, he still felt the blow of the bomb.
His face was disfigured, his right eye could no longer see daylight; some teeth were knocked out, while his two front legs were slightly damaged, they didn't break, but his speed was affected.
After being hit the wolf was stunned for a few seconds, Derick took advantage of this and shot 6 more arrows.
Because of the short shooting time, he only hit 4 arrows.
A few seconds passed and he recovered from the blow, but there was a change in his gaze.
Now he no longer saw that human as a simple toy, now the look the wolf had on Derick was hatred, pure hatred, the wolf wanted to destroy him until there was not a single trace of his existence left.
And then immediately after recovering he ran towards Derick.
Derick had his back to a tree, and so he took advantage that the wolf was not at the peak of his speed and shot five more arrows. All five were successful.
Just as the wolf was about to bite Derick, Derick threw himself to the side and the wolf bit the tree with all his might.
Even with a few missing teeth, the force of its bite was enough to destroy the tree.
This bite bought Derick a few seconds, he took advantage of this and used the "Fast Steps" skill to reposition himself and shoot more arrows.
Because he was running too fast and carelessly, Derick cut himself on a small branch, not a very deep wound, but enough to be a problem.
Strangely enough, when he cut himself, he felt lighter, but he didn't have time to worry about it.
He took advantage that he was more than 50 meters away from the wolf and shot 5 more times. Again all 5 hit successfully.
***
Since that improvised plan worked, Derick wanted to try again, this time he would stand in front of a thicker tree.
But when he went to try this again, a problem arose, his right leg was sucked through a small hole that was in front of the chosen tree.
He could not pull his leg out of the hole, or rather he did not have time to do so. Because any carelessness he made would be time enough for the wolf to arrive.
For that reason, he wanted to use a smoke bomb to distract the wolf and try to get his leg out of the hole, but
"Shit!" Derick muttered.
