Trace of the Brown Bear
It had long round ears with black tufts growing on them. Its entire hair was light brown and looked like a cat but not a cat. This was Su Ming’s first impression of it.
However, one could not ignore the strength hidden in it just because of its cute appearance.
The lynx was agile, had long and powerful limbs, and liked to hunt small and medium-sized prey. Sometimes, small wild boars would also be included in its diet.
At the same time, the lynx also lived alone. They were different from wolves. Therefore, Su Ming and the other wolves did not have to worry about the other party having companions.
Father Wolf carefully observed the surrounding scene. After confirming that there were no other predators, it signaled to the children beside it and prepared to take action to kill this lynx.
The other party was also very vigilant. It bit the snow rabbit’s neck tightly and held it in its mouth, but its eyes were focused on the surrounding situation.
The snow rabbit in its mouth had long stopped struggling and was motionless. Clearly, it was already dead.
The lynx was not in a hurry to enjoy the delicious meal in front of it at all. Instead, it wanted to return to the nest and slowly eat.
It swept its gaze around. Only the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves could be heard. The lynx relaxed and turned to walk towards the nest.
At this moment.
Swoosh!
Five hunters rushed out of the bushes.
The lynx hurriedly looked back and saw five gray wolves surrounding it.
“Wu!!”
The lynx’s body began to retreat towards the trees beside it, and it let out a warning roar.
However, this bluff could not stop Father Wolf and the others from attacking.
Su Hui pounced and was about to bite the lynx’s hind leg.
In a moment of desperation, the lynx threw down the snow rabbit in its mouth and hurriedly climbed up the tree trunk, prepared to climb up the tree to avoid these hunters.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, and a huge shadow enveloped the lynx. It was actually Su Ming who jumped up and slapped the lynx down to prevent it from escaping up the tree.
The powerful impact made the lynx dizzy and it actually did not stand up immediately.
The experienced Father Wolf grabbed the opportunity and bit its neck. The two wolf brothers who rushed over from behind hurriedly bit its hind legs to prevent it from struggling too much before it died.
Su Yi also followed suit and subdued the lynx on the spot.
“Roar… Roar…”
Unexpectedly, in less than a moment, the original hunter had become the prey and fell into the wolves’ mouths like the snow rabbits he hunted.
Su Ming landed from the sky and looked at the restrained lynx.
That weak slap just now really did not make him feel much sense of accomplishment. This thin and long lynx was not much of a challenge to him.
He still wanted to continue finding opponents to test his new strength and complete the second requirement.
Blood flowed from its neck, and its eyes had lost their previous color.
Father Wolf let go of its mouth and licked a mouthful of blood. It looked at the lynx’s corpse and the ridiculously huge snow rabbit beside it.
This bit of food was not enough for the wolves, especially after there were five more wolf cubs that needed to eat meat.
Father Wolf pondered for a moment and decided to let the wolf brothers return first while he and the three wolves continued to hunt.
Of course, no wolf dared to object to this decision. The wolf brothers obediently bit the corpses of the lynx and the snow rabbit and walked back in the direction they came from.
Father Wolf did not waste any time. After roaring at the three wolves, it ran forward again.
The three wolves understood its meaning and also increased their speed to follow closely behind.
The hunting team was originally in the depths of the forest, so they naturally did not have to run for long.
In less than a moment, they found the traces of some animals again.
Looking at the deep claw mark on the ground in front of him, Su Ming smelled a unique smell. This was different from the previous smell. Instead, it had a dense smell.
Su Ming noticed that this claw mark was shaped like a plum blossom. There were five fingers in front of it and a round palm behind it.
Thinking of his memories as a human in his previous life, Su Ming guessed that this might be the claw mark of a brown bear.
However, the smell left above was very weak. Su Ming determined that the other party had already left for a while.
It was not only Su Ming. All the members of the hunting team had smelled this special smell. However, other than Father Wolf, the other members did not know what kind of creature this was.
Father Wolf lowered its head and sniffed slightly. It immediately frowned and roared in a low voice.
It would never forget the owner of this smell, the enemy who had killed its cousins and children, the brown bears.
However, what was strange was why the brown bears would appear here.
Although the wolf pack had arrived in the depths of the forest, they should still be a distance away from the habitat of the brown bears.
Without thinking carefully, Father Wolf decided to put this problem to the back of his mind. Since there were traces of the brown bears now, it meant that this place was not very safe.
It looked at the three children beside it. Although they had already grown to the level of being independent, Father Wolf still did not think that the four of them could completely defeat the brown bears.
It had to be known that the brown bears had a total of five members. If they encountered one of the brown bears, they might still have a chance of winning. However, if there was more than one, the outcome would be uncertain. In fact, there might even be casualties in the hunting team.
The priority now was to leave this place.
Thinking of this, Father Wolf turned around and led the three wolves behind it in another direction. It knew that there was another place where a large number of herbivores had gathered.
Su Ming followed Father Wolf as he pondered over the scene just now.
That was the first time he had seen Father Wolf so furious. It was as if something had happened between this brown bear and their wolf pack, causing Father Wolf’s actions just now.
Su Ming remembered the smell of the brown bear just in case.
The team ran for another hour or so before finally walking out of the forest and arriving at a grassland.
Seeing the endless wilderness, Su Ming felt healed.
Of course, it was even more excited about the creatures that were eating the weeds on the grassland. horse deer could be considered an old friend of the wolf pack.
Unlike the previous group of deer pack with a huge number and elite guards, the deer pack here was abnormally scattered. There were only seven to eight of them.
They were very vigilant. After seeing that it was the wolves, they ran into the distance in panic.
Father Wolf did not say anything and suddenly followed behind a deer.
The three wolves knew their mission very well. After choosing a deer each, they also began their hunt.
Su Ming chose a relatively muscular deer. It was very fast and left its own kind far behind.
However, the horse deer did not understand why the white wolf behind it did not choose to chase after the others and came after it instead.
