Clark and Maria were already certain that they wouldn't find much in terms of more horned rabbits. They searched the area after storing away the four they had found. They already felt lucky that they had found one that they had not even needed to hunt.
Unfortunately, the system had given Clark the task to hunt five. That left him with a total of three out of five hunted even though he had four bodies. There was still motivation to find more.
"You know I am not sleeping out here. There are field foxes that come out at night. I am not ready to fight at night and you don't have Devi." Maria put her foot down when she saw that the sun was slowly descending. If they were to remain outside in the night she wouldn't b able to promise safety in the least.
Rushing in is not always the best move.
