69 Chapter 69
In the afternoon, outside the territory, in the forest.
Su Ming’s three wolves were walking in the dense forest, looking for traces of other creatures, as well as signs of mutated plants.
Su Ming himself was enough, but the other two wolves still needed to obtain some mutated plants if they wanted to evolve.
Little Sister Su Yi still needed two wind speed grasses and one shadow grass.
Little brother Su Hui needed one explosive polygonum.
These three types of plants were not easy to find. They were all mutated plants in the rare category, especially the explosive Polygonum and shadow grass. The difficulty level was even higher.
Speaking of which, Su Ming knew a place that might have signs of these rare plants.
The northern goat habitat had a special lawn where all kinds of mutated plants could grow in the central area.
Due to the interference of the northern goat leader the day before, Su Ming didn’t see it clearly. However, through a small gap, he saw the traces of wind speed grass and moonlight grass.
According to this deduction, it was very likely that there were rare plants like explosive Polygonum and shadow grass growing in the central area.
However, it was not good for Su Ming and the other wolves to take them. There were many factors involved.
Firstly, the mutated plants in the center of the lawn were still in their growing stages and were not fully mature.
Secondly, the northern goat tribe had more than a dozen mutated creatures. It would take a lot of effort to take down that area. There might even be injured members. It would be better to wait until the Big Brother and second brother were healed, it would be easier for the five wolves to take down this area.
The third reason was that this lawn had been used as a hunting spot by Su Ming for a short period of time. If they were to attack the northern goat tribe rashly, it was very likely that they would leave this habitat, then, they would need to find a new hunting spot.
Therefore, Su Ming believed that the matter of attacking the northern goat tribe and finding the mutated plant at the center could be pushed back for a few days.
When the Big Brother and second brother joined the hunting team, and when Su Ming and the others had almost finished hunting the northern goat, they would attack together and take it down.
...
After searching for four hours, the three wolves did not get anything from the mutated plant, but they made some progress in finding the creature.
They came to the place where they captured the alpine snow pheasant in the morning. Su Ming and the wolf killed all three snow pheasants in the vicinity.
Then, the three wolves quickly finished off the snow pheasant’s corpse and treated it as their afternoon meal.
Under Su Ming’s leadership, Su Hui and Su Yi’s quality of life was gradually improving. From the initial stage of being barely full from their injuries to the recovery stage, they ate at least three meals a day in full.
Their days were quite happy. This made the two wolves admire Su Ming’s ability even more in their hearts.
Su Ming and the others had almost circled the area. They had encountered many creatures during this time, but perhaps they were unlucky. The creatures they encountered were either birds of prey or small creatures like snow rabbits.
Either they were not worth it, or they could fly, so they could not hit them at all.
In the end, the three wolves still came to the northern goat’s habitat.
On one hand, they wanted to see how the mutated plants were growing, and on the other hand, they wanted to see if they could find out information about the leader of the northern goat.
The three wolves tried their best to slow down their footsteps and slowly approached the forest next to the habitat.
The scene here didn’t change much from when they left earlier. The sheep still occupied the place and lowered their heads to eat the wild grass.
However, if one took a closer look, they would realize that the sheep that were originally not vigilant had become vigilant.
The northern goats at the periphery would occasionally look up at their surroundings. The leader of the sheep in the central area and a few elite sheep would check the number of their own group at intervals to ensure that they were not lost.
The reason for all of this should be related to the two companions of Su Ming’s three wolves who were quietly hunting yesterday.
Of course, this level of vigilance was not enough to detect the actions of Su Ming and the others. Moreover, the wolves did not come here today to hunt the northern goat.
They were quietly hiding in the bushes, observing the scene in the habitat.
Su Ming’s good line of sight quickly noticed that the few moongrass in the center seemed to have completed their development.
At this moment, the leader of the northern goats in the center also noticed the maturity of the plants. It lowered its head and carefully bit into the three moonlight grass, chewing it in its mouth.
The three elite northern goats looked at this scene with envy. However, due to the other party’s strength, they did not dare to cross the border and enter the center circle.
This leader of the northern goats could be considered smart. It generously took out three more moonlight grass and threw them to its companions, while also roping in these three people who were only second to it.
As expected, the three goats looked at the leader with gratitude. Then, they started eating happily. Their good impression of the leader had increased a lot.
Su Ming looked at this scene with some heartache. If only these grass were given to their three or wolf companions to eat. How great would that be.
Unfortunately, it was not the time yet. Fortunately, the other mutated plants still needed some time to mature. It was enough to wait until Su Ming and the others attacked.
Su Ming raised his front foot and slowly walked, ready to find an opportunity to find out the information about the leader of the northern goat.
But halfway through, he heard the sound of a large group of creatures moving in the northwest direction.
Something was wrong!
Su Ming made a prompt decision. He steadied himself and continued to hide in the bushes. He ordered Su Hui and Su Yi behind him not to act rashly.
The two wolves nodded. They followed brother Bai’s instructions and obediently stayed behind him.
Not long after, the flock of sheep also noticed something amiss.
The leader of the northern goats was the first to notice it. It stopped what it was doing and raised its head to look at the forest in the northwest region.
The three elite northern goats behind it also followed the leader’s actions and looked directly at the forest in the northwest direction.
With a few goats in the front row leading the way, the remaining members of the flock understood that something bad was going to happen. They all raised their heads and looked into the distance.
Under the gaze of nearly thirty northern goats, this mysterious creature finally walked out of the forest and revealed its true appearance.
It had a tall build, brown hair, and a complicated and huge head horn.
Its identity was self-evident. It was a red deer.
However, it was different from the red deer that Su Ming and the other wolves had encountered before. This batch of red deer was mostly made up of young adults. All of them were much taller than before.
Especially the leader-level red deer at the front. Its body length was more than two meters, and its shoulder height was about 1.3 meters.
The other party also had a rather eye-catching horn. It was very huge, with a total of eight forks. It was emitting a fiery red light, and it seemed like one could see boiling flames from the inside of the horn.
Behind this leader, there were a few strong red deer whose body size was not inferior to its.
They walked around the other party, as if following, but also as if guarding.
After that, it was the common young stag that formed a circle, guarding the sick and the old in the center.
