Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

Wolf Mother ate nearly half of an Arctic Rabbit, even the young ones weigh about four to five pounds.

This gave her stomach, which hadn't had any nutritional supplements for days, some respite at last.

Although Wolf Mother really wanted to eat the remaining half of the Arctic Rabbit, she restrained herself.

In a corner hidden from other wolves, she discreetly set it aside for Su Lin and Wolf Sister.

"Awooo."

Wolf Mother let out a low howl, quietly informing Wolf Sister and Su Lin.

"We are truly full."

Su Lin, who had been beside her all along, looked at the half of the Arctic Rabbit that Wolf Mother had saved, and he couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.

He hadn't expected Wolf Mother to leave any food uneaten.

He also hadn't expected the maternal love and affection among animals to be equally moving.

In his previous life, he never wanted for food and clothes, yet he rarely felt much family affection,

after all, his parents were always busy with their company's development and rarely paid him much attention.

In this life, although he had been reborn as an Arctic Wolf,

the past month living with the wolf pack made him genuinely feel the care from Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom.

Especially just now, the frantic way Wolf Mom and Wolf Dad behaved, thinking that their cubs in the den had encountered trouble, touched Su Lin significantly.

"Sigh!"

Thinking of this, Su Lin looked up again at Wolf Mother, who stubbornly left that little bit of food for him, and sighed.

But he knew deep down that he had to work hard to evolve.

Firstly, to ensure he could live safely, and also to prevent Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom from exhausting themselves for a little food.

He wanted to become the true ruler of the entire Arctic, the king at the very top of the Arctic food chain, the Arctic Wolf King.

Harboring beautiful aspirations for the future,

Su Lin lay down beside Wolf Mother, preparing to sleep and recover his energy, so he could go hunting again tomorrow.

....

The next day.

Just waking up from his sleep, the first thing Su Lin saw as he opened his eyes was that Wolf Mom and Wolf Dad were no longer in the den, and the other adult Arctic Wolves of the pack were also gone.

Clearly, they had gone out early in search of food.

He stretched and, still somewhat sleepy, got up.

After getting up, he saw that Wolf Sister, Cousin, and the orphaned cub were still fast asleep.

The tendency for young mammals to be heavy sleepers wasn't without basis.

Su Lin walked out of the den, looking out at the endless white expanse of the Arctic.

It was probably around ten in the morning now, but the sky over the Arctic Continent barely showed a glimmer of light.

Winters and nights here are longer than anywhere else, and sometimes there is even the phenomenon of polar night.

"Awooo!"

Su Lin howled long and loud towards the vast, empty Arctic.

He knew that he would have to survive in this place for a long time.

After his howl, Su Lin felt hungry again.

He had now fully adapted to life as an Arctic Wolf, and to a lifestyle of wolfs down blood.

Perhaps because the Arctic Wolf's taste buds are different from humans', he found that raw meat actually tasted quite good.

"Should I go hunt some more Arctic Rabbits?"

"But the Evolution Points gained from eating Arctic Rabbits are now minimal, there isn't much motivation."

After thinking for a while, Su Lin decided to go out for a walk.

If there were no other prey, then he'd just have to hunt a few Arctic Rabbits again.

In the snow-covered Arctic, he walked step by step.

A wolf's sense of smell is very acute.

Soon, not far from his start, Su Lin sniffed a scent of blood in the air.

"Hmm? Something's afoot!"

He immediately became fully alert.

He crept across the snow, following the direction from which the scent of blood came.

Not fast, but very cautious.

After all, his strength was still quite weak.

Better safe than sorry, being cautious was always right.

About fifteen minutes of slow progress later, he finally arrived at the source of the heavy scent of blood.

The blood scent was very strong.

It appeared that a fight had just happened not long ago.

If it had been longer, such a strong scent of blood would have attracted many carnivorous animals by now.

Su Lin stopped, hiding behind a dense shrub, and looked up into the distance.

Soon, he made out the source of the bloody smell.

It was the carcass of an Arctic reindeer!

Species: Arctic reindeer (male, deceased).

Level: 7.

Qi-Blood: 1050.

Endurance: 75.

Strength: 53.

Defense: 39.

Speed: 60.

...

This Arctic reindeer was level 7, even higher than Wolf Father.

Normally, it would have taken the whole wolf pack to hunt such a target.

But now, a level 7 male Arctic reindeer lay dead just like that.

There were barely any signs of tearing on the reindeer's body.

Only the neck and limbs oozed fresh red blood.

The blood hadn't completely congealed yet, suggesting it had died only minutes ago.

"Hmm? What kind of animal could so easily kill a male Arctic reindeer like this? Could it be a polar bear?"

Hidden behind the shrubs, Su Lin pondered.

In the Arctic, the only animal that could so easily take down an Arctic reindeer was,

the undisputed dominator, the polar bear.

But what puzzled him was, he found no traces of any bears having been around here.

What's more, if a polar bear had killed it, it wouldn't have left the carcass here.

Su Lin was perplexed.

After repeatedly confirming that the surrounding environment was very safe, he cautiously approached the Arctic reindeer carcass.

The body of the Arctic reindeer was large, weighing at least two to three hundred pounds.

Even the entire wolf pack couldn't finish it in one meal.

"Hmm?"

Upon closer inspection, he soon noticed something odd about the reindeer's body.

The antlers and deer whip were gone, as if they had been cut off directly with a knife.

The wounds were very neat, definitely not the result of animal tearing.

"Could it be humans who hunted it?"

A shock went through Su Lin's heart.

The antlers, when not fully calcified, are called velvet antler.

Velvet antler is not only found in sika deer and red deer but also in Arctic reindeer.

It's a very valuable medicinal material, and many people would pay a high price for it.

As for deer whip, it too is an excellent ingredient for steeping in alcohol.

Looking again at the fatal wound on the reindeer's neck, he indeed found a deep puncture wound.

From his human point of view, such a wound was definitely caused by a firearm.

This reindeer died at the hands of humans.

Thus only the most valuable velvet antler and deer whip were missing.

"Hiss!"

At this sight, Su Lin took in a sharp breath.

It seemed that the Arctic wasn't as safe as he had imagined.

He had to constantly face not only the risk of food scarcity but also these poachers!

The sense of crisis instantly rose to his mind.

He had to accelerate the pace of evolution.

Su Lin didn't hesitate, beginning to lower his head to feed on the carcass of the Arctic reindeer.

The reindeer had not been dead for long, and its body was not yet completely stiff.

He tore off a piece of meat from the chest, where the fat was less and the meat tender.

"Ding! The host has consumed Arctic reindeer meat and obtained 3 Evolution Points."

After a single bite, Su Lin's eyes lit up.

3 Evolution Points!

No wonder it was the meat of an Arctic reindeer.
