Chapter 33 Entering The Forest
In the forest, Su Ming and the other two wolves looked at the alpine snow chicken corpse in front of them and fell into a dilemma again.
There were a total of eight alpine snow chickens, each the size of a mid-sized dog.
It was simply impossible for them to bring all of them back.
Even though the necks of the snow chickens were very thin and each one of them could pick up two chickens with their mouth, the three wolves could only drag six away. There would still be some left.
With the principle of not wasting food, Su Ming decided to eat three of the snow chickens right away.
Each wolf would finish a chicken before noon and then bring the remaining alpine snow chickens back.
This decision was strongly approved by Su Hui and Su Yi. They had long coveted the meat of these snow chickens. Looking at their thick chest, they felt that these chickens must have a good taste.
If Su Ming knew what they were thinking, he would probably not know whether to laugh or cry. The reason why the snow chicken's breasts were plump was because they contained a lot of feathers and were not real muscles.
Su Ming first brought the two wolves to move the snow chickens to another location to prevent other predators from being attracted by the smell of blood.
Although it was somewhat cumbersome to carry them back and forth, it could at least ensure their safety.
Then, on another lawn, the wolves finished arranging the snow chickens and began to choose.
Looking at the alpine snow chicken in front of him, Su Ming acted like the elder brother he was and let his two siblings choose the snow chicken they wanted to eat first.
Su Hui and Su Yi were first somewhat surprised by Brother Su Ming's decision, but then they also picked out the snow chicken in front of them excitedly.
They each chose the one they thought had the most meat and held it in their mouths. They retreated and waited for Brother Su Ming to finish choosing.
Although Su Ming treated them very kindly, the two wolves still followed the rules of the wolf pack and did not eat before the high-level wolves. After all, such an action could be seen as provocation.
In essence, the three wolves were all Beta wolves and did not have high or low status. However, after being led by Su Ming for so long, they had long treated him as the gray wolf with the highest status below Alpha.
Seeing that his younger brother and sister had finished choosing, Su Ming also went forward to casually choose one to eat.
Only at this moment did Su Hui and Su Yi dare to lower their heads and eat the alpine snow chicken in front of them.
The texture of the chicken was not as delicious as mutton and deer meat. It could only be said to be average. It took the wolves a while to finish eating them. After all, they were the size of a mid-sized dog.
After cleaning up the feathers near his mouth, Su Ming looked up at the sky. The light was starting to become stronger. It should be close to noon.
Looking at Su Hui and Su Yi, who had already finished eating, Su Ming felt that it was time to return.
After indicating to the two wolves that it was time to leave, Su Ming picked up the two alpine snow chickens and ran in front. Su Hui and Su Yi followed closely behind.
It was also good for him to leave as soon as possible. Su Ming was afraid that the battle area not far away would attract that bloodthirsty creature again. For now, it was still unknown if the three wolves could defeat the other party.
Perhaps he would only be able to completely suppress the other party after his next evolution.
After running all the way through a large number of trees, the wolves arrived at the previous waterfall.
Looking at the mouths of his brothers and sisters behind him, Su Ming decided to go downstream and rest and clean his body first.
As the only water source in this area, many creatures came to drink water every day.
Now, there were a few snow rabbits and northern mountain goats drinking water with their heads lowered. It was a very peaceful atmosphere.
However, the arrival of the three wolves completely broke the atmosphere.
After seeing Su Ming and the other wolves' mouths filled with blood, all the animals stopped. Without hesitation, they fled to the back, afraid that the wolf pack would capture them.
Su Ming wanted to capture a few North Mountain Goats. After all, the North Mountain Goat was also one of his opponents. Defeating it would allow him to complete the necessary conditions faster.
Unfortunately, they already had five prey in their mouths and could no longer carry other creatures. Moreover, judging from their running speed, it would take a lot of time to catch up.
This was not worth Su Ming's time. The wolves' current mission should be to return to the cave as soon as possible.
After putting the few alpine snow chickens aside, Su Ming and the others arrived at the lake.
They first lowered their heads and drank the lake water. Then, when they were almost done drinking, they buried their heads in the lake water and cleaned themselves several times.
After resting for a while, the wolves set off again and ran towards the cave.
About fifteen minutes later, they successfully returned to the wolf den. Their wet fur had also been completely dried as they ran.
To the surprise of the wolves in the cave, Su Ming and the other two wolves actually returned with more prey this time. Moreover, there were quite a few of them. There were a total of five alpine snow chickens, and their sizes were almost the size of mid-sized dogs.
This was enough for the wolves to eat for a while.
With the help of Su Ming and the other wolves, the problem of food was temporarily resolved. This also allowed Father Wolf and the others to have more time to find hunting spots.
The three wolves walked into the cave and placed the alpine snow chicken they had hunted at the food storage location.
Then, they each found a spot and closed their eyes to rest.
The constant running and fighting in the morning had made them somewhat tired. They indeed needed to find time to rest.
During this period, Father Wolf did organize a meal, but the three wolves had already eaten once and did not participate.
Regarding this, Su Ming had also told Father Wolf and Mother Wolf in advance, so there was not much misunderstanding.
The safe environment made Su Ming relax, and fatigue surged in his heart.
Under this comfort, he gradually fell asleep.
In the afternoon, when the wolves were about to go out to hunt, he finally woke up leisurely.
"Howl!!!"
This was the sound of Father Wolf gathering.
Su Ming changed his somewhat sleepy expression immediately and hurriedly focused as he walked to the entrance of the cave.
Other members had already arrived one after another. After Su Ming approached and Father Wolf confirmed the number of members, they immediately left the cave and headed southwest.
...
The hunting team walked all the way and did not even stop for long at the lake. They only rested for a while before continuing on their way.
It seemed that Father Wolf wanted to reach the strange forest quickly.
If they were lucky, they might be able to find the hunting ground before sunset.
On the way, Su Ming also told Father Wolf about the traces of the bloodthirsty creature from this morning.
Because the location was in the southwest and the other party's activity range did not involve that strange forest, Father Wolf thought that they could continue exploring for the time being.
Of course, they were now working together with the six gray wolves. If they really had to fight the other party, the wolves would definitely have the advantage.
Soon, with the six wolves running quickly, they arrived in front of the forest where Father Wolf's team had stopped the day before.
Su Ming looked at the scene in the forest and saw that there was nothing abnormal. It was the same as an ordinary forest.
However, this was where the scent which guided Father Wolf and the others ended. There must be something strange inside.
Either some creature was unwilling to be tracked by predators and used its mutated ability to eliminate its aura, or this forest had naturally isolated the aura from leaking.
No matter what, the wolves were determined to go in and investigate today.
"Roar!"
Under the lead of Father Wolf, the six wolves slowly walked into the forest.
