Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Wolf Pack Tactics, Fierce Lone Wolf.
“Ao!”
The howling of the wolf pack
rose and fell in waves.
Xiao Hui, Little Lone Wolf, and the two wolfesses didn’t rush into the attack recklessly.
They were merely using their sonorous and lingering howls
to pressure the Musk Ox Group, throwing their formation into disarray.
A few wolves were prowling around the perimeter of the Musk Ox Group,
their pale blue eyes emitting the unique fierce and cold glint of hunters.
They kept a firm gaze on the Musk Ox Group, searching and waiting for them to reveal a weakness.
The Wolf Pack seldom chose head-on confrontations when hunting,
they were born group hunters in nature.
Strategic cooperation was key to unleashing the pack’s greatest strength.
A truly coordinated large Wolf Pack had almost no natural enemies in the wild,
together they could hunt any prey.
At the moment, Xiao Hui was the closest to the Musk Ox Group,
its 1.89 meters wolf body was considered large among the Arctic Wolves.
Xiao Hui’s sharp Claw Spikes and Fanged Teeth were also capable of breaking through the Musk Oxen’s hide and defense.
Reliant on the Wolf Clan’s superior speed,
Xiao Hui was steadily closing in on the Musk Ox Group,
a pair of pale blue Wolf Eyes shimmering with a menacing light,
forcing the Musk Oxen to expose a vulnerability.
Even the usually somewhat clumsy Xiao Hui, when truly commencing a hunt,
shed all semblance of frivolity.
“Moo!”
At that moment,
the leading male Musk Ox,
under Xiao Hui’s relentless pressure, issued a warning low bellow.
Accompanying the warning were sounds of hooves stomping on the ice and snow.
This signified
that the Musk Oxen were not only on the defense,
but they were also preparing to attack!
In their eyes, the notion of just four Arctic Wolves
attempting to hunt them seemed far-fetched.
Finally,
under Xiao Hui’s persistent provocation and testing,
the Musk Ox Group could no longer hold back; they moved.
The Musk Ox Leader led the charge, hooves thundering on the snow,
with an unstoppable force, launching the first wave of a charge at Xiao Hui.
To hunt them,
one must confront their fiercest counterattack!
They were natural warriors!
Seven or eight Musk Oxen broke into a rampage,
kicking up numerous splashes of ice and snow, with a momentum like a sweeping gale, as if intent on crushing and shattering everything in their path!
Confronting the Musk Ox Group’s counterattack,
Xiao Hui didn’t hesitate for a second and turned tail to flee.
Such a counterattack,
not to mention itself, even a Grizzly Bear wouldn’t dare to confront head-on!
As Xiao Hui, relying on its sprint, drew the Musk Ox Group on,
the howls of wolves,
at the same time,
echoed across the open Arctic Tundra.
The tactical play of the Wolf Pack kicked in at that moment.
“Ao!”
“Ao!”
“Ao!”
….
Little Lone Wolf was the first to act,
its eyes glinting bloodthirstily as it flanked from the side, targeting the two juvenile Musk Oxen.
These two juveniles were half a year old and stood seventy to eighty centimeters tall.
Little Lone Wolf believed
it could take down these calves on its own.
This wasn’t arrogance; it was confidence!
During its time surviving alone,
its ferocity and ruthlessness had been honed to a sharp edge!
And at that moment,
Xiao Hui was sprinting forward, dodging the wild onslaught of the Musk Ox Group.
As they charged, their hooves trampled the ground, stirring up flurries of snowflakes.
“Moo!”
The Musk Ox Group, attacking relentlessly,
knew neither fear nor retreat!
In their world,
facing hunters that wished to prey upon them, they had only to brandish their sharp horns,
Only by ramming into them viciously could he make them back off in difficulty!
But the agility of the wolf’s body was far beyond what their massive weight could match.
Xiao Hui was slipping around them, draining their physical strength and energy.
And also diverting their attention.
It was at this moment,
that Little Lone Wolf had already reached the position of the calf!
The ferocious creature,
alone, a single wolf, was extremely swift in attacking a calf trailing behind its mother.
The assault was launched.
In those pale blue wolf eyes, there was confidence,
as well as the ultimate ferocity and madness!
The sharp Wolf Claw glittered with a cold gleam under the sun!
The claws of the Little Lone Wolf,
through the enhancements of these days, had become incredibly sharp.
The Wolf Claw viciously slapped the small Musk Ox, only about seventy to eighty centimeters in size.
Bang!
Several fresh, blood-drenched scars were drawn on the body of the small Musk Ox.
The body of the small Musk Ox also swayed,
but it still did not fall to the ground!
After all, even at seventy to eighty centimeters, the weight of the creature was not something the pounce of a Wolf Clan member could take down.
“Moo!”
The pitiful cry of the small Musk Ox immediately echoed through the air.
Its speed also slowed down as a result,
and it became separated from the Musk Ox Group.
Before the Musk Ox Group could even react,
the Little Lone Wolf, with a ferocious look in his eyes, stretched out his Fanged Tooth and viciously bit into the calf’s hind leg.
Splurt!
The sound of Fanged Tooth piercing flesh.
Under intense pain, the small Musk Ox struggled wildly.
Its hind legs kept lifting high,
occasionally kicking the body of the Little Lone Wolf.
But the fiendish and ruthless nature of the Little Lone Wolf had long surpassed that of a normal Arctic Wolf.
It was like an anomaly who felt no fear of pain,
enduring the violent struggles of the small Musk Ox,
biting its hind leg fiercely, and then yanking it backward forcefully.
Rip!
A large chunk of flesh was torn away,
and the depth of the wound even revealed the chilling white bones of the small Musk Ox’s hind leg!
The small Musk Ox, with its weight of over a hundred kilograms and a size of seventy to eighty centimeters,
was directly rolled onto the ground by that pull.
It then felt a pale purple Wolf Claw,
slam down viciously again on its hind leg, further enlarging the wound.
Causing it to emit an intense and pitiful howl.
This howl,
was meant to be a burden to the Musk Ox Group, further diverting the attention of the Musk Ox Group,
and at the same time, it was an attack on the Musk Ox Group’s valiant momentum!
The cries of its own kind, are always the most devastating to their spirits!
In the cruel natural world,
there is no morality or benevolence.
Wolf Pack hunting always employs every possible strategy!
Meanwhile,
the pair of pale blue eyes of the Little Lone Wolf twinkled with extreme ferocity, watching the frantic Musk Ox Group.
If the goal of the Wolf Pack’s hunt this time was merely to satisfy hunger,
it could be said that,
to drag the small Musk Ox out of the formation and inflict severe injuries, the mission was mostly accomplished.
It had also claimed the major credit for this hunt!
But Little Lone Wolf knew,
the White Wolf had instructed,
the target of this hunt had never been the calves!
It was the adult male Musk Oxen!
These massive beasts, with bodies over two meters long and weighing seven to eight hundred kilos!
Whose charge was so powerful that even Grizzly Bears would tremble with fear!
Yet, in the pale blue eyes of the Little Lone Wolf, there was not a trace of fear.
Instead,
there was a bloodthirsty excitement!
It had a natural joy for fighting and hunting.
As though,
this was its true arena!
“Howl!”
At this moment, the Little Lone Wolf let out a long howl!
This howling,
was proclaiming its victory, and also openly provoking the Musk Ox Group!
