Rebirth Into A Wolf: I Can See My Evolution Paths

61 Chapter 61

After burying the body of the northern goat, the three wolves continued their journey into the distance.

Since there was still time left, Su Ming decided to make a trip along the way. He planned the hunting position in the afternoon and first inspected the situation.

This would help him find his prey faster, and he wouldn’t need to spend a few days like the last time when the wolf father led the team.

The three wolves ran through the forest, shuttling between the trees.

Perhaps their luck had run out, and they did not encounter any medium-sized or large-sized creatures along the way.

Other than the snow rabbits, the birds on their heads encountered the most. Occasionally, they would encounter one or two Pallas’s cats.

Su Ming clearly remembered that there were not so many small creatures in the forest a few days ago.

This might also be a sign of the expansion of the brown bear territory, causing the habitat of many creatures to change.

If one paid more attention, one could also see that predators like snow leopards and lynxes were also migrating to the southern region.

According to this trend, it was very likely that in the future, the territory of carnivores in this area would gradually increase, and then it would become quite crowded.

Next to each Predator’s territory was another predator’s territory.

As a result, conflicts were more likely to break out, and the number of herbivores would be in short supply for a while.

The only way to solve this was to completely eliminate the brown bears that ruled the conservation area, so that the originally crowded ecological environment could be alleviated.

As they thought about the future, Su Ming and the other wolves approached the place where the northern goat was found.

The surroundings were calm. Other than the ground that had been gnawed on, there was no other evidence that a battle had taken place here.

To be safe, Su Ming did not choose to search separately. Instead, he led the search in one direction.

He lowered his head and sniffed the scent left on the grass.

Other than the smell of soil and grass, there was no other smell.

This also proved that no other creatures had appeared in this area during this period.

Of course, this was understandable.

First, there was an outbreak of the northern goat’s poisonous fog, which dispersed a large number of creatures in the surrounding area.

Secondly, because of the attraction of the bloody smell, two batches of predators had been attracted. This naturally aroused the vigilance of other herbivores.

However, before this, there had been a northern goat that had appeared here.

Northern goats and wolves were generally gregarious animals. The distance they traveled would not be too far from the group.

From this, it could be deduced that at least there was a group of northern goats in this area.

However, Su Ming’s recent location had been judged as a dangerous area by them, so he had never been here again.

After making this deduction, Su Ming followed his instincts and walked towards the north.

The three wolves lined up and ran forward quickly. After all, the task of finding a hunting spot was in the afternoon.

They only needed to check their surroundings in advance.

The forest was quite quiet. Occasionally, there would be birds flying over their heads and snow rabbits darting into the bushes. However, most of the time, it was the sound of the breeze blowing through the branches and leaves.

“Rustle...”

The three wolves were among them. As they ran, they observed their surroundings.

They had to memorize the terrain and the animals that came and went in order to better track down their prey in the afternoon.

...

Time passed, and gradually, it was noon.

Feeling the increase in sunlight, Su Ming understood that it was time to go back.

He turned around and looked at Su Hui and Su Yi, then he led the team back the way they came.

This trip, the three wolves could not be said to have gained nothing. At the very least, they had explored a new area and prepared for the arrival of the afternoon.

When they returned to the waterfall, Su Ming was surprised to find that there were some animal footprints around the soil where the three wolves buried the goat’s body.

Looking at the traces left behind by their repeated movements and the few small pits beside them, he could tell that the other party had stayed around for at least ten minutes.

What kind of animal had such a sensitive sense of smell? Even with the waterfall’s current and the soil, the other party could still find the approximate location.

Su Ming went forward and carefully observed the footprints left by the other party.

It was very obvious that this was the footprints of a large creature. From the depth of the soil, its weight was not too light. It was at least 80 kilograms.

The other party’s paw prints were not within Su Ming’s scope of understanding. They were very similar to the plum blossom shape of a bear, but they were slightly smaller. The part of the front paw was also longer and thinner.

Considering how it looked when the small pit was opened, the creature’s paw must have been very sharp.

Judging from these signs, this creature was definitely not easy to deal with. Its unique ability to search for blood reminded Su Ming of the bloodthirsty creature from a few days ago.

Fortunately, the creature’s sense of smell wasn’t strong enough to accurately find the location of the burial site. It could only find a vague location.

After repeatedly searching for no results, it left the place.

Perhaps something had attracted it, or else it would have stayed here for a longer time. Perhaps it would have met the three wolves of Su Ming who were returning.

Su Ming shook his head and did not think about it anymore. He only understood one thing. He could not stay here for long.

Su Ming did not dare to delay for even a moment. He brought his two underlings and little sister and quickly dug up the soil and took out the carcass of the northern goat inside.

Then, he quickly returned to the direction of the cave. He was afraid that the mysterious animal would smell it and come to stop them.

At this moment, the wolf pack was lacking in members. They had to avoid unnecessary conflicts as much as possible.

At the same time, on the way back, the three wolves did not forget to collect the white grass.

After spending some time, they collected eighteen pieces of white grass and distributed them into three portions.

Each wolf had six pieces. Together with the carcass of the northern goat, they brought them back to the wolf den.

Although they had a mouth full of things, the harvest from this trip was quite good.

Before the three wolves approached the entrance of the cave, a shadow ran towards them.

This wolf was Su Ming’s second brother. He had not fully recovered from his injuries, but he still insisted on taking on the responsibility of guarding the entrance.

Now, he wanted to help his little brothers and sisters and share some of the food in his mouth.

He took the prey from Su Yi’s mouth and transformed into a phantom, returning to the wolf den faster than the three wolves.

When they approached, his second brother had already finished storing the prey. The wolf mother was freezing the food slightly to increase the time they could store it.

The wolf father looked at the three wolves’figures and felt very gratified. These children really did not let him down.

They had only gone out for one morning. Not only did they bring back the white grass for treatment, but they also hunted the corpses of three northern goats.

Su Ming and Su Hui placed the prey in their mouths at the storage location and waited for the Mother Wolf to freeze it.

Su Yi took the white grass from the two wolves and distributed it to the four wounded. She then placed the rest back in the storage area.

After last night, the amount of white grass was in short supply. If it weren’t for Su Ming and the other two wolves collecting it today, the healing speed of the wounded would have been much slower.
