Chapter 46: Chapter 46 Searching for the Grizzly Bear.
After eating about ten kilograms of dogfish,
Su Lin gained a total of about twenty Evolution Points.
The Evolution Point yield from dogfish meat also dropped to its lowest point.
Su Lin stopped eating,
and then,
he headed to the entrance of the cave, taking over the vigilance duty from his cousin, signaling her to go eat.
Soon,
the sounds of the other wolves feasting echoed in the cave.
Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf,
though drowsy,
were very eager when it came to eating.
On hearing the low howls of Su Lin eating, they both had risen from their deep sleep.
Their sleepy eyes immediately brightened.
Currently, Wolf Sister had reached Level 2,
and her little fangs were starting to show their edge,
even able to tear off frozen Grizzly Bear Meat.
She no longer needed to ask Wolf Brother for help like before.
Now Xiao Hui, Cousin, Wolf Sister, and Grey White Little Wolf could each eat about thirty kilograms of meat in one meal.
However, the Wolf Clan doesn’t need to eat every day,
in extreme states, being full from one meal can last nearly a month.
Still, even so,
under the polar night, many Arctic Wolf Packs diminished because of a lack of food.
The wolves of the Wolf Pack all eat very quickly.
It didn’t take long for the pack to be sated.
Wolf Sister, having regained her energy and physical strength, started to look for Grey White Little Wolf to spar with,
but Grey White Little Wolf was clearly scared of Wolf Sister and ran about the cave howling.
This annoyed Wolf Sister greatly.
Eventually,
it was the bored Xiao Hui, who wanted to assess the strength of Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf.
He let out a couple of low howls, signaling the two pups to attack him together.
Xiao Hui was very strong and wasn’t afraid that Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf might hurt him unintentionally.
After Xiao Hui’s signal,
Wolf Sister, not one to concede easily, let out a naive howl
and attacked Xiao Hui.
Wolf Sister’s hunting and combat skills were quite commendable at this point,
and her attack was very cautious.
But the gap in strength between them was ultimately too large,
and despite Wolf Sister’s persistent entanglement, attacks, and pounces around Xiao Hui,
she found it hard to make him shift even a step from where he lazed.
Xiao Hui simply extended a paw, nonchalantly playing with Wolf Sister.
For the younger sister of his pack leader,
Xiao Hui was very caring and measured.
He just defended and blocked Wolf Sister’s attacks without counterattacking.
After Wolf Sister’s repeated unsuccessful attempts to make him move,
Grey White Little Wolf joined in,
and the two pups started to fight in coordination,
but Xiao Hui’s strength was too great,
and even if he exerted only a fraction of it, his languid defense was easily suppressing them.
As the Wolf Pack playfully fought,
time slipped by little by little.
…
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
The raging Arctic wind had also come to a halt.
Su Lin, with Xiao Hui, stepped out of the cave.
He began to search for prey while trying to pinpoint the specific locations of several Grizzly Bears in the area.
To see where these cumbersome creatures were.
Following the Arctic wind, all became silent and desolate.
The surroundings were utterly still,
except for two pairs of ghostly green eyes making their way through the night.
This time, the first search was for the areas previously frequented by Grizzly Bears.
An hour later,
Su Lin had pinpointed the location of one Grizzly Bear.
This bear was a female too, but she hadn’t bred,
and she had stored enough food before the onset of the polar night.
Her formidable strength had barely diminished under the darkness of winter.
After circling the area outside her cave, the Grizzly Bear returned to her den to continue riding out the polar night in hibernation.
The location she chose for her den was also very secretive, with lots of piled snow for cover.
Su Lin’s haunting green Wolf Eyes watched the Grizzly Bear enter her den and then turned to leave.
This Grizzly Bear wasn’t the one that had conflicts with Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom’s Wolf Pack.
For one thing, the location of the Grizzly Bear was very far from Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom, not within the Wolf Pack’s hunting range.
On the other hand, the bear had not a single wound on her.
The Wolf Pack led by Wolf Dad comprised at least eight adult Arctic Wolves.
Together in a hunt, their power was not to be underestimated.
After all, the Wolf Pack’s tactics of echeloning and pack hunting weren’t about straightforward clashes,
but involved attacking, entangling, harassing, dodging, and so on –
as long as the prey wasn’t overly strong, it would inevitably be left scarred from the relentless attacks.
Once its physical strength was exhausted, its fate was to become food for the Wolf Pack.
