章節 16: Chapter 16: Planning to Set Up on One's Own.
編輯: Henyee Translations
Wolf Father helped drag the musk ox carcass back to the cave.
Throughout the process, he remained silent.
And the Wolf Clan's sense of smell was always very sharp.
After smelling the heavy scent of blood, the Wolf Clan members who were sleeping in the cave all woke up.
"Ao!"
"Ao!"
...
In the cave, the low howls of the Wolf Clan followed one after another.
Obviously,
they were somewhat stunned when looking at the musk ox carcass.
What was going on?
Could it be that the Lead Wolf had gone hunting alone?
There was a hint of confusion in their wolf eyes.
Wolf Father didn't speak, nor did he let them start eating.
In the Wolf Pack, no other member dares to eat before the Lead Wolf eats the prey.
Finally, with a low howl from Wolf Father directed at the cub, Su Lin,
the wolves realized that the musk ox had actually been hunted by Su Lin.
Su Lin was the one they had watched grow up.
The progression from an unsteady little wolf cub to his current state had happened exceedingly quickly.
This made many members of the Wolf Clan start seeing Su Lin not just as a cub anymore, but as a full-grown Arctic Wolf.
Even a powerful adult Arctic Wolf,
The Wolf Clan looked at Su Lin with varying degrees of awe in their eyes.
Several wolfesses also howled softly,
coming up beside Su Lin to help lick his blood-stained fur.
They even wagged their tails slightly.
This was a subtle expression of affection toward Su Lin.
"Wuu wuu!"
Only after Wolf Mother glared with bared teeth did the wolfesses leave, tails tucked, in dejection.
In the Wolf Pack, Wolf Mom and Wolf Dad had high status.
Fortunately, Wolf Mom came to his rescue,
otherwise, Su Lin would indeed be a bit bewildered.
Although he had fully accepted his rebirth as a wolf, he still couldn't come to terms with getting intimate with a group of wolfesses.
Just thinking of that scene made him feel a chill in his heart.
"Ao! Ao!"
Wolf Mom came over and howled softly in succession.
What Wolf Mom meant was that she was proud of him.
"Ao!"
Su Lin responded with a howl and called Wolf Mom and Wolf Sister to eat.
Wolf Sister was still young and understood nothing.
Seeing that Wolf Brother had brought back food again, she naively went over to the carcass of the musk ox and started to eat.
Wolf Sister was now over two months old.
Her little wolf teeth were gradually growing in, and she could now nibble some of the softer parts of the musk ox carcass by herself.
During the nibbling process, she still fell a few times.
But she quickly got up and continued eating.
Cousin, still in the growth phase, talked with her own mom with a low howl before coming over to eat as well.
As for the rest of the Wolf Clan, without the command of Wolf Father, the Lead Wolf,
no one dared to move, just watching.
The strict hierarchy within the Wolf Clan was displayed at that moment.
The intelligence of the Wolf Clan was limited, mostly equivalent to that of two or three-year-old human children,
and even Wolf Father, who led the Wolf Pack and had more experience, was only slightly smarter.
With their intelligence, they could only obey orders and rules; it was difficult for them to conceive the idea of breaking the rules.
At most, if they thought of rebelling, it would be by challenging Wolf Father.
But Wolf Father's strength and ferocity were well recognized within the Wolf Pack.
In the end, after waiting for a while without hearing a command to eat from Wolf Father,
the rest of the Wolf Clan members could only swallow their saliva and then returned to their own places, closing their eyes.
Meanwhile, Wolf Mom came over to Wolf Father, licking his fur, silently comforting him.
"Ao!"
Su Lin howled softly, taking the initiative to call Wolf Father over to eat.
Wolf Dad was also silent, and without saying anything, he fell asleep.
This caused Su Lin, who had kindly brought back food to share with everyone, to sigh involuntarily.
Within the Wolf Clan, many notions were still too deeply ingrained.
The strong were revered.
In the Wolf Pack, my current strength had already threatened Wolf Dad's status.
This was the reason Wolf Dad had been silent ever since he saw the carcass of the musk oxen.
Even though I was Wolf Dad's own child,
often, after growing up,
I would need to go out and establish my own household, creating my own Wolf Pack.
"Awooo!"
Su Lin howled softly at Xiao Hui.
Xiao Hui, who had eaten until his belly rounded and was preparing to sleep again on the musk ox meat pillow near the Grey White Little Wolf,
hurriedly scampered back to Su Lin's side when he heard his boss calling.
The gloominess of Wolf Dad had already made Su Lin decide to go out and establish his own clan.
And Xiao Hui, as a staunch little brother, was definitely going to be taken along.
As for the rest of the Wolf Clan, if Wolf Dad allowed it, Su Lin would take all the cubs in the cave with them.
After all, for the current Wolf Clan, these cubs were also a burden.
As the range of the polar night widened within the Arctic Circle, food would become increasingly scarce.
Eventually, the living environment for the Wolf Pack would become more and more severe day by day.
For the cubs in the Wolf Pack, there was even less need to mention it.
...
Next,
Time flew, and another half month passed.
In this half month, the days on the Arctic Continent became shorter and shorter.
In the region where Su Lin was, there were only four or five hours of sunlight each day, with the rest of the time engulfed in darkness.
Further north, closer to the Arctic Pole, the region was completely enveloped by the polar night.
Polar night, midnight sun,
these are natural phenomena unique to the Arctic and Antarctic.
During this period, Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom went out hunting four or five times, but each time, the gains were less than satisfactory.
The only decent catch was hunting a young sea lion resting on the ice at the shore.
However, a young sea lion weighing only forty or fifty pounds couldn't fill the bellies of eight adult Arctic wolves.
So in the end, they had to shamelessly share the musk ox killed by the little ones with the pack.
This musk ox meat weighed four or five hundred pounds.
Just the group of cubs eating it would find it hard to finish.
Su Lin also didn't leave the Wolf Pack immediately in these days.
He just went out with Xiao Hui to first look for a cave with a high safety factor.
Moreover, during this period, he ate about fifty or sixty pounds of musk ox meat, although the musk ox meat was very tasty.
But the reduction in Evolution Points was significant; after eating fifty or sixty pounds, the obtained Evolution Points had dropped to 0.1.
This made him lose interest in eating anymore.
As for Xiao Hui, he ate a bit more.
In order to let Xiao Hui grow faster, Su Lin didn't control Xiao Hui's appetite.
Every day it gobbled food voraciously, eating until its belly bulged.
And Xiao Hui successfully broke through to Level 3.
Xiao Hui at Level 3 was already two or three sizes bigger than Cousin, and nearly indistinguishable from Wolf Mom in size.
Its strength was even stronger than an ordinary Level 4 Arctic wolf,
and it was already able to help Su Lin with some small tasks.
During this time, Su Lin also checked the system reward potions.
[Evolution Potion]: Upon consuming prey, obtain three times the Evolution Points, lasting for 72 hours.
The Evolution Potion was a newly acquired potion,
with a straightforward effect of increasing the acquisition of Evolution Points.
It could also last for three days, making it a very practical potion.
As for the other Potential Potion, needless to mention, it could unlock the body's potential.
In recent days, Su Lin had consumed another five Potential Potions,
his coat became even smoother, his bones more robust,
his organs felt cozy and warm, his lung capacity increased, breathing became longer,
and his heart's blood supplying capability was stronger, making him more enduring in combat and during strenuous activities.
Su Lin could now maintain a full sprint at thirty meters per second for a full ten minutes.
However, the more potions he used, the less effective they became, and after using up five Potential Potions, there was almost no effect left.
