Chapter 34 Strange Forest
As soon as they stepped into the forest, the wolves felt that something was wrong.
The green leaves here were lush, and the branches and leaves had grown too much. They even blocked the light above and only threads of light could pass through the gaps and scatter in, but they were unable to give the wolf pack any warmth.
Walking here, Father Wolf had no choice but to order the wolves to pay attention to the surrounding situation to prevent themselves from being suddenly attacked.
The intertwining branches and leaves made this place like a maze, making the wolves unable to tell east from west. If they were careless, it was very likely that they would get lost here.
Father Wolf was somewhat glad that it had not rashly entered yesterday. Otherwise, it might really have gotten lost inside and could not find the exit.
Now that its third son was around, it did not have to worry about this problem.
Father Wolf noticed that its thoughtful child had long sensed the complicated environment here. Su Ming had marked every tree he passed in advance.
As the wolves gradually entered deeper, the number of trees also increased. This also led to the surrounding environment becoming more and more complicated.
It was worth noting that although there were many trees here, there were no traces of birds or even small animals.
It had been more than ten minutes since the wolves walked into this forest. Not to mention birds, there was not even the sound of branches swaying. This place was really too quiet, so quiet that it made the wolves feel strange.
Walking in the middle of the team, Su Ming was also very vigilant as he investigated the surrounding environment. As the strongest wolf in the hunting team, his senses far exceeded his other companions.
However, even he did not sense any sound. This was enough to prove that there were no signs of activity from at least five to six kilometers away.
After leaving a claw mark on a tree trunk beside him, Su Ming continued to follow the main group.
However, he did not notice that after it left, the claw mark on the tree trunk actually gradually disappeared until there were no traces at all. This tree actually had an unbelievable healing ability.
Not only that, but the branches and leaves on its body began to tremble. Then, they intertwined with the branches and leaves on the other tree trunk, completely sealing off the path Su Ming and the others had originally taken.
In front, the hunting team that was unaware of the situation behind continued to walk.
According to Father Wolf's plan, this was the most likely place for a deer group to appear. As long as the hunting team found the deer group, the wolves would have a stable source of food.
However, the situation here told Father Wolf that the truth was not as it thought. The strange atmosphere and the quiet forest gave him an ominous feeling.
Just as it was thinking about whether to retreat, a dark brown figure flashed not far away.
The horse deer!
With his many years of hunting experience, Father Wolf recognized the other party at a glance.
Seeing that there was indeed a herd of deer here, Father Wolf consoled itself. At the very least, it was not wrong. Although the outside of this forest was silent, at the very least, there were animals inside.
Father Wolf was somewhat conflicted. Although the appearance of the deer had surprised it, the complicated terrain here was very unfavorable for the wolves to hunt.
To a wolf pack that was unfamiliar with the terrain, it was very easy for the other party to escape.
Since Father Wolf only needed a new hunting location, would it be easier if they waited for the deers to appear in the periphery of this forest instead of entering the interior?
It had long noticed that the reason why the aura had completely disappeared was not because of anything the other creatures had done, but because this forest itself had the ability to isolate any aura.
Even in the forest, they could not smell the other party's aura, making it even more difficult to hunt.
Just as Father Wolf was thinking, dozens of dark brown figures appeared behind the figure just now.
Father Wolf's eyes widened. The fact that so many deer had appeared could only mean that the number of deer here had already reached an uncountable number.
Thinking about it, it made sense. The unique maze terrain of this forest and the ability to isolate auras made it very easy for predators to get lost inside. Without the restriction of natural enemies, the deer group could develop wantonly and give birth to larger numbers.
Father Wolf's interest was piqued. It decided to lead the wolves to investigate more carefully and confirm the situation inside before making a decision.
The wolves followed the deers and slowly entered.
Walking in the center, Su Ming felt a trace of unease.
He had also caught a glimpse of the other party's figure just now. With an even stronger dynamic vision, Su Ming realized that the other party seemed to be running with light steps. This was not how ordinary deers ran.
Could this be the ability of that horse deer?
Su Ming decided that after approaching the other party, he would definitely investigate carefully.
The wolves kept approaching the center of this forest. The deer herd was far ahead, as if they were completely unaware that a group of gray wolves was following behind.
Of course, this was also related to the powerful tracking ability of the wolves. They were confident that they would not be discovered by the deer in front.
Unknowingly, a special fragrance entered the noses of the wolves. In the beginning, it was very weak. After the wolves chased the deer into the depths, the fragrance began to become abnormally dense and refreshing.
Even the calm leader, Father Wolf, could not help but increase the speed of his feet, wanting to investigate the source of the smell. It was as if it had already forgotten about the horse deer.
Su Ming also smelled this fragrance. Originally, he was very restrained and wanted to maintain a trace of calm.
However, for some reason, as he approached, his body actually reminded him that the fragrant item was rather important to him and that he had to devour it. This would have a key effect on his evolution.
Su Ming also gradually lost his rationality, but he still had his consciousness. He did not completely lose his mind like Brother Wolf and the others.
As the deer in front walked into a gap, it completely disappeared from the sight of the wolves. However, at this moment, the wolves did not care much and all walked into the gap.
What greeted their eyes was a wide lawn and an incomparably huge ancient tree in front of them.
In front of the ancient tree grew a golden herb. It was the one that kept emitting a fragrance that attracted the wolves.
A Golden fragrance…
This was the Fractured Weed!
Su Ming's eyes widened. He did not expect the mutated plant he had been searching for for a few days to appear here.
Just as he was about to find a chance to pluck it, the ancient tree moved.
Its thick leaves wrapped the weed tightly like a human arm, and the refreshing smell it emitted was completely isolated.
After losing the confusion of the smell, the originally restless wolves regained their original rationality.
They looked around in fear. At some point, they had been lured here. Moreover, it was as if they had completely lost their memories of being confused.
Only Su Ming and Lang looked at the ancient tree in front of them in shock.
It was not only because of its moving body, but also because this ancient tree actually knew how to use schemes to lure animals. This meant that it was not inferior to humans in terms of intelligence.
At the same time, Su Ming also figured out how this forest isolated the aura. It was all because of this ancient tree in front of him.
