Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Promoting Little Lone Wolf.
“`
This area is the Wolf Clan’s territory.
Every day, two wolfesses patrol it,
although there are also some lynxes and Arctic foxes adept at hiding,
they at most dare to provoke a lone wolf,
as for the prey of the wolf pack,
even if starved to death, they wouldn’t dare try to steal.
Therefore,
the wolf pack feeds very comfortably.
Each of the four wolves of the Wolf Clan
consumes about ten or so pounds of musk ox meat.
After all, it’s been a long time since they had such tender beef.
After eating,
the few wolves of the Wolf Clan conscientiously began to drag the prey towards the cave.
The four wolves of the Wolf Clan combined their strength to drag it,
no longer needing bushes to assist them.
In a short while,
they dragged it into the cave.
“Ao!”
“Ao!”
The two wolfesses bid farewell to Su Lin at the entrance of the cave,
their eyes still full of a kind of affection specific to wolfesses in heat.
Their tails were also wagging happily.
This gave Su Lin somewhat of a headache.
But he still didn’t say anything,
only gestured to the two patrolling wolfesses that if there was anything in the territory, to come and report to him.
If they were hungry,
they could come to the cave to feed.
Food is something wild animals will always care about.
Upon hearing that the Lead Wolf allowed them to come to the cave to eat when hungry,
the two wolfesses jubilantly celebrated.
Their tails wagged even more diligently for Su Lin.
An extra bit of affection was added to their wolf eyes.
This made Su Lin somewhat unable to bear it, and he directly gestured for them to leave.
The two wolfesses,
then reluctantly left.
After Su Lin returned to the cave,
the Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf inside
were also sniffing the musk ox corpse, left and right.
They had eaten musk ox meat before,
and naturally still remembered the tender and delicious musk ox meat.
Especially Wolf Sister, drooling with longing.
However, Su Lin did not let them feed,
and they dared not eat.
Even Wolf Sister was no exception.
This is the supreme authority of the Lead Wolf within the wolf pack.
After Su Lin returned,
seeing Wolf Sister drooling and Grey White Little Wolf constantly swallowing saliva,
he did not deliberately tease them.
With the coming of the warm season,
food will become more and more plentiful.
Su Lin let his cousin, Wolf Sister, and Grey White Little Wolf all go to eat.
His cousin had reached level 4,
and her food intake had increased a bit.
Generally speaking,
for female Arctic wolves to reach level 4 is a hurdle.
Few break through to level 5.
Even the Wolf Mother, only at the peak of level 4,
still hadn’t been able to advance to level 5 even after taking a Potential Potion.
Su Lin hoped his cousin could break through to level 5,
so that in the wolf pack, she could help him out a bit more.
Next,
Su Lin let out a low howl, summoning Little Grey and Little Lone Wolf.
The two little wolves came running over immediately,
Little Grey had long since become used to their boss’s strength.
But for Little Lone Wolf, today was the first time he had seen Su Lin’s strength with his own eyes.
The unbelievable speed and furious attack power were freshly imprinted in his memory.
Encountering such a powerful Lead Wolf, Little Lone Wolf felt quite fortunate.
At this moment, Su Lin did not know what they were thinking in their hearts.
However, both Little Grey and Little Lone Wolf were of variant species, with great potential for growth and higher intelligence than ordinary members of the Wolf Clan.
He planned to cultivate them well.
Especially Little Lone Wolf,
His ferocious and valiant bearing in today’s musk ox hunt,
had greatly satisfied Su Lin.
Additionally, Little Lone Wolf’s temperament was stable,
not as naughty as Little Grey, nor as simple.
“`
The future is something he can handle alone.
As for Xiao Hui,
thinking of its lackluster performance today, Su Lin couldn’t help but give it a couple of swipes with his paw.
A nearly Level 5 Variant Species, yet its combat achievements were not as strong as those of Little Lone Wolf!
It even required Little Lone Wolf and himself to come to its rescue, narrowly avoiding disaster.
Su Lin used his left paw,
but still, two swipes left Xiao Hui’s head swaying from side to side.
It immediately began to whine pitifully.
Su Lin ignored the whining Xiao Hui,
instead, he affirmed the performance of Little Lone Wolf today.
And he signaled,
that from now on, Little Lone Wolf could eat the food in the cave without his permission, at will.
In the Wolf Pack, this was certainly a special honor.
Because food,
has always been of paramount importance in all the major wolf clans,
only the Lead Wolf distributes food, allowing the other wolves to eat.
And to be allowed to eat without the Lead Wolf’s permission,
in the Wolf Pack,
one could be said to be second only to a single wolf, above all others.
This honor,
made Little Lone Wolf both surprised and delighted.
It excitedly prostrated itself on the ground, its forelimbs holding its head,
even wagging its tail, showing loyalty to Su Lin.
Su Lin accepted the loyalty of Little Lone Wolf,
patted its head, and indicated it could rest now.
Little Lone Wolf excitedly licked Su Lin’s paws then returned to its corner to rest.
There were still some injuries from the hunt on its body that indeed required rest.
Especially after being heavily thrown by the musk oxen while saving Xiao Hui.
Even with the Variant Species’ strong Impact Resistance, it still felt a dull pain in its organs and bones.
Next,
Su Lin looked at Xiao Hui, who looked so pitiful it was almost in tears,
he gave it another swipe with his paw,
signaling it to stand guard at the mouth of the cave, and assigning it the guard duty for the next few days.
Useless thing!
Su Lin was still somewhat angry at Xiao Hui’s poor performance today.
Seeing that its leader was truly angry,
Xiao Hui didn’t dare whine anymore,
and moved its body to the cave entrance to begin guard duty atop a rock.
However, being of not low intelligence, it knew its hunting performance today was terrible.
So while on guard duty, it became restless.
It went outside the cave and began practicing its hunting skills against mounds of snow and ice.
As for this scene,
Su Lin showed no reaction.
He simply returned to his spot, ready to begin resting.
When his strength returned to its peak tomorrow,
he would take the Strengthening Serum.
Su Lin knew all too well the agony of the Strengthening Serum.
But to become stronger,
he had no hesitation.
As for Evolution Points,
after consuming the bear cub, Su Lin had accumulated over three hundred.
There was still quite a distance to reach Level 8!
The road to evolution in the future was still very long.
The Wolf Pack’s strength was steadily increasing,
as were the Evolution Points he needed, bit by bit.
As time slowly progressed, both he and the Wolf Pack would become stronger and stronger.
Just as Su Lin harbored beautiful aspirations for the future,
his cousin came over after finishing the musk ox meat.
His cousin’s wolf body was one meter fifty-six,
the size of a normal female Arctic Wolf.
But for Su Lin, she still appeared quite petite.
His cousin came over to Su Lin,
first sniffed him to see that he was not injured, and only then did a relaxed expression appear in her pale blue Wolf Eyes.
His cousin knew how hard it was to hunt musk oxen,
as previous hunts by the Wolf Pack for musk oxen would typically result in several wolves being injured.
So she was worried that Su Lin had been injured as well.
But after checking and finding no injuries, his cousin did not leave.
Instead, she affectionately licked Su Lin’s fur,
her small tongue tickling him.
Su Lin did not particularly like these affectionate gestures,
he growled softly, indicating he wanted to rest,
then his cousin stopped and returned to her own spot.
After eating, Wolf Sister also started roughhousing with Grey White Little Wolf again.
