377 Chapter 225
In this way, the temperature that the deer could withstand would be slightly lowered, which would alleviate the problem of its continuous consumption of energy.
The forest under the blazing flames was exceptionally quiet. There were no birdsong or insect sounds, only the sound of wolves walking.
Speaking of which, the deer that were originally resting here seemed to have received the sound of a tree trunk collapsing, so they hid. It was unknown if they would take action to attack the Wolf Pack, after all, their numbers were a little more than Su Ming’s four wolves.
Of course, for Su Ming, there was not much difference between attacking or not attacking. It was better to say that if the other party took the initiative to attack, then the wolf pack would have a meal tonight.
Recalling the taste of deer meat that he had eaten in the protection zone, Su Ming could not help but secrete a large amount of saliva.
After walking forward for about five minutes, a large number of dense trees lined up in front of the Wolf Pack.
They were like a wall that blocked the path of the four wolves, trying to force the team to choose another path.
Su Ming was not discouraged by the situation in front of him. He approached the trees and measured the area between the gaps.
Then, he raised his thunder wolf claws and cut a large gap under the tree trunks on both sides to prevent the trees from collapsing and to allow the wolves to pass through.
“Ao!”
Su Ming called out to his partner behind him. He took the lead to cross the tree wall and came to the eastern part of the forest.
What greeted his eyes was another scene, which was completely different from the quiet blazing forest earlier.
Without the cover of the lush trees, a group of young deer and young deer that were as big as medium-sized dogs were happily running around in the middle of the spacious middle-sized lawn. They were stepping on the magma and playing with each other.
In the distance, five adult deer were half-lying on the ground. They were resting while watching their offspring.
The situation of the deer group here was a little wrong with Su Ming’s deduction earlier. They did not hide. Or rather, with this natural fortress, the deer thought that no living creature could detect their purity, thus, they did not choose to hide. Even their basic vigilance had been greatly reduced.
When the first giant wolf that crossed over appeared in front of them, it was as if time had frozen. The originally cheerful deer stopped in place. Its limbs trembled, and its eyes were filled with strangeness and fear, the adult deer in the distance also widened their eyes, filled with disbelief.
As the leader of the deer group, the sika deer with an extremely strong physique reacted the fastest. It quickly raised its head to the sky and let out a cry, waking up its companions and also the stunned descendants in the distance, it called them back to their side.
With the warning cry of the leader, the deer seemed to have found their backbone and quickly ran back. The adult deer group also got up and ran crazily in the direction of their children.
Just like that, the two sides were successfully reunited. The five adult deers used their strong bodies to hide their young offspring behind them to prevent them from being peeked at by the giant wolves.
At the same time, Su Hui, Su Yi, and Ling San-lang also successfully crossed the tree trunk and arrived at the natural shelter.
The four sides were surrounded by tree trunks, forming a strong wall. Only the west side had a small gap to let in and out. In a sense, this place did have the ability of a shelter, so it was no wonder that the deers let down their guard.
The deer group was wary and hostile towards the four wolves that had suddenly barged in.
As herbivores, before the mutation, they were food for slaughter. They did not have the ability to resist, and they had an innate fear of predators, as well as an instinctive hostility.
The reason why they had not taken action was firstly to protect the young deer at the back, and secondly, they were not sure if they could beat the other party back.
Although they were medium-sized and had experienced the benefits of the mutation and welcomed a second growth, their strength and body size were different from before, but the four-faced giant wolf in front of them was much bigger than the sika deer as its leader, it was much more robust.
Especially the White Wolf in the lead, it had almost twice the size of its leader, and its claws were emitting lightning, making it seem quite difficult to deal with.
This was the reason why the Sika Deer Leader was hesitating. However, it was clear that the predator in front was not so easy to force back.
“Yo! ! !”
It raised its forelimbs and suddenly let out a passionate deer cry. At the same time, the long horns on its head emitted a dazzling red light, and there seemed to be some kind of strong potential energy contained within them.
As the leader of its pack, it still wanted to minimize the damage that its pack received to the greatest extent, and use its own abilities to force back the pack of wolves in front of it.
Unfortunately, this action didn’t have any effect on the four giant wolves in front of it.
After traveling with Su Ming for a long time, the creatures and abilities they had seen far exceeded the imagination of the leader of the pack. The ability to shine was quite normal in the face of the wolves and didn’t pose any threat.
Seeing the hostility of the deer ahead, Su Ming was also a little interested. He wanted to see the difference between the mutated deer species in the lava area and the mutated deer species outside.
He took a step forward and focused his gaze on the large sika deer in the center. Combined with the previous situation, Su Ming guessed that the other party was the leader of the deer group, so he wanted to find out how strong the strongest person in this group was, whether he had the ability to fight.
“Whoosh!”
After three seconds, the interface appeared.
[ name ] : None
[ species ] : mutated sika deer -- adult stage
[ rank ] : Elite Tier 6
[ strength ] : 19.4/25
[ agility ] : 20.5/45
[ ability ] : Blazing Light (horn) , rapid speed, wild strength, flaming hoof
[ mutation ] : Armor of lava flow (15%)
[ blazing light (horn)] : due to the strange energy, the creature has some changes. A flame energy is formed in its body. With the help of the horn, it will shoot out a blazing fire ray and Pierce through the opponent’s body, it burned the opponent to ashes.
[ rapid ] : due to the strange energy, the creature had some changes. Its limbs became more powerful, and the speed of the nerve connections in its body increased, causing it to be able to release a speed that far exceeded its usual running speed.
[ mad power ] : due to the strange energy, the creature had some changes. It stimulated the hidden abilities in its body, forcing its muscles to become stronger and more powerful. It was able to burst out with a speed and strength that surpassed its own.
[ flame hoof ] : the creature has a slight mutation caused by a strange energy. A flame energy is formed in the body. It is stimulated by the hoof under the feet, wrapping the blazing flame above it and increasing the speed of the formation, it can also produce a strong burning effect on everything it touches.
Based on the information on the panel, the Sika deer leader in front of him could only be considered average in terms of strength compared to the other creatures that survived in the lava. It did not have any outstanding abilities.
Su Ming guessed that it was mostly because it relied on the unique terrain of its habitat to avoid being chased by predators.
Even the strongest leader was only at this level. The combat strength of the other four members would probably be even more careless.
Su Ming had no need to attack. He stopped moving forward and retreated, leaving the opportunity to fight to Su Yi and Su Hui.
The deer herd on the other side did not know what Su Ming was thinking. They thought that he was afraid and wanted to run away.
A relatively impulsive deer ignored the leader’s order and charged forward, trying to chase away the giant wolves that suddenly barged in.
“Yo! ! !”
It imitated the leader’s posture and raised its forelimbs. It let out a cry, trying to scare the wolves.
Unexpectedly, the situation before its eyes was completely contrary to what it had imagined.
Not only did the wolf pack not continue to retreat, but the two wolves at the front showed endless fighting spirit.
One of them burst into blazing flames, looking at the sika deer with scarlet eyes, while the other summoned sharp shadow blades, silently looking in the direction of the deer pack.
Putting down its raised forelimbs, the impulsive sika deer also felt that something was wrong.
