“Ao!”
Su Lin let out a low howl.
He signaled Xiao Hui to eat the remaining Traveling Rats.
Although the meat of the Traveling Rat tasted decent, it couldn’t compare with the tender and smooth flesh of the large herbivores.
Without the acquisition of Evolution Points, Su Lin couldn’t be bothered to eat them.
Xiao Hui immediately howled joyously and devoured several more Traveling Rats.
The rest were carried behind a rock, where with its claws, it scraped out a small pit in the ice and snow and buried them.
“Ao ao!”
Xiao Hui continued to howl softly.
Now, it could barely express some complex communications.
After a series of low howls, Su Lin understood Xiao Hui’s meaning.
It planned to save a few for his Wolf Sister, Cousin, Grey White Little Wolf, and others to take back to the den.
“Ao!”
Su Lin affirmed Xiao Hui’s considerate thinking for the other members.
Having received affirmation from their leader, Xiao Hui was excited, hopping and jumping around, shaking its head and wagging its tail in a goofy manner.
Next,
Su Lin continued to search for food with Xiao Hui.
The days in their current location were getting shorter and shorter.
Not long after they had set out, the sky began to darken.
During this time, Su Lin and Xiao Hui stumbled upon a lone Arctic reindeer that was eating moss all by itself.
The group of Arctic reindeer was only six to seven kilometers away, and they were about to migrate.
This Arctic reindeer’s confidence to feed alone indicated its strong self-assurance.
It was an adult Arctic reindeer.
Quite strong, and fast at running,
Even if the Arctic Wolf Pack wanted to hunt such an adult Arctic reindeer, it had to rely on teamwork, blocking from behind and intercepting from the front.
Xiao Hui, with a Speed less than 40, wasn’t even taken seriously by the adult male Arctic reindeer.
Therefore, after Xiao Hui’s attempt at hunting,
The Arctic reindeer ran a distance, then resumed eating moss right where it was, waiting for Xiao Hui to give chase.
This scene seemed like it was toying with Xiao Hui.
After Xiao Hui chased after it once more, the Arctic reindeer kicked Xiao Hui hard with its hoof, causing it to grimace in pain.
Seeing this, Su Lin finally moved.
He bared a pair of fanged teeth,
Those wolf eyes reflecting a faint green light, akin to the Grim Reaper summoning souls in the night!
“Ao!”
A loud and prolonged wolf howl echoed across the Arctic Continent!
This howl pierced through the air, the severe cold, and the darkness.
It alerted the Arctic reindeer, which had never taken Xiao Hui seriously, in an instant.
It lifted its head, frantically looking around.
The eyes of the Arctic reindeer, like the Wolf Clan, can also see through the darkness.
Therefore, it quickly noticed Su Lin not far away.
There stood a large adult Arctic Wolf on the snowy slope, standing proudly.
Su Lin did not attempt to conceal his figure this time,
He just stood directly on the snow slope, those green wolf eyes staring at the Arctic reindeer.
The eyes emanated a chilling intent.
His fur, which had gradually shed the bloodstains, had returned to its originally impeccable white color.
At the thought, the Numerical Attributes of the Arctic reindeer appeared before him.
Species: Arctic reindeer.
Level: Level 7.
Qi-Blood: 1060.
Endurance: 76.
Strength: 55.
Defense: 43.
Speed: 61.
The attributes of this Arctic reindeer were very high, even higher than the reindeer carcass they had consumed a while ago.
But such strength no longer seemed troublesome in Su Lin’s eyes.
Despite having a sharp set of antlers, the Arctic reindeer was different from the musk oxen.
Apart from higher Qi-Blood and Endurance, it was otherwise unremarkable.
It also didn’t possess the musk ox’s courageous spirit to battle hunters to the death.
At the same level, musk oxen were much harder to hunt than Arctic reindeer.
Because even herbivores, if they dared to fight for their lives, could deter many hunters.
At that moment, upon seeing the proudly standing White Wolf fixing its gaze upon it,
the innate sixth sense of the animal screamed a warning of danger.
The Arctic reindeer didn’t hesitate and started running towards the reindeer group not far away.
As long as it reached the group, no matter how strong the White Wolf was, it would return empty-handed.
Unless it possessed the invincible strength to challenge an entire group of Arctic reindeer alone.
The Arctic reindeer broke into a rapid sprint.
It looked back at the White Wolf on the snow slope.
It saw the White Wolf charging towards it,
and the speed of the White Wolf was even faster, like a streak of white lightning.
The Arctic reindeer felt as if death itself was chasing after it.
It was certain that it had never encountered a wolf of such speed in all its time in the Arctic.
Such speed, was this still the Wolf Clan?
It must be a snow leopard.
The Arctic reindeer ran frantically but still heard the whistling sound of air friction from behind.
It’s close,
very close!
The Arctic reindeer could even hear the sound of the Wolf Clan charging through the snow.
“Yo!”
The reindeer picked up speed once again,
but within seconds, it still felt a white shadow by its side, then a Wolf Claw slapped fiercely towards its neck.
The Arctic reindeer struggled to dodge, but it couldn’t.
And with the White Shadow’s immense speed, the force of the pounce was too much for it to withstand.
A heavy blow struck its neck; the body instantly lost balance while sprinting,
tumbling over and over for more than a dozen meters before coming to a stop.
The body of the Arctic reindeer, not as flexible in its bones,
endured multiple tumbles, causing numerous injuries to its organs and skeleton.
It tried to crawl on the ground, struggling, but it just couldn’t get up.
And the reindeer group was just a short distance away.
But it knew it would never be able to return.
“Yo!”
A sorrowful cry of the reindeer echoed through the night.
And Su Lin walked slowly towards the once confident Arctic reindeer, not wasting any time, and gave it a swift end.
Sharp Fanged Teeth pierced into the throat of the Arctic reindeer, sucking the precious blood from its body.
Just as the Arctic reindeer tried to struggle, its throat was bitten through.
Before long, the eyes of the Arctic reindeer dimmed completely.
Xiao Hui came running, breathing heavily.
It had long since grown accustomed to the supreme power of its leader.
A prey it was barely able to handle was merely a lamb for slaughter in the hands of the leader.
“Howl!”
Su Lin let out a low howl, indicating for Xiao Hui to find a bush and drag the Arctic reindeer back.
Xiao Hui immediately obeyed, searching for a bush.
The body weight of the Arctic reindeer differed greatly from that of the musk oxen, weighing only about two hundred or so pounds.
Thus, after finding the bush,
Xiao Hui consciously began to drag the body of the Arctic reindeer on its own.
This time Su Lin did not order the Arctic reindeer to be dragged back to the cave where Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom were, but prepared to take it back to his own newly found cave.
It was to prevent irritating Wolf Dad again.
Now, the authority of Wolf Dad as the Lead Wolf was already quite fragile in front of him.
It couldn’t be aggravated further.
