Chapter 66: Chapter 66: The Torture and Killing of Musk Oxen, the Wolf Pack Howls Long.
 

“Moo!”

In its pain, it quickly turned around.

Swinging its horns,

it wanted to fight the White Wolf to the death.

But just as it had turned its massive head, it suffered another heavy blow.

Bam!

This strike was even heavier.

The Musk Ox Leader felt as if it had been hit by a Grizzly Bear.

A deep wound was gashed into its head, tearing off half a piece of flesh and exposing the white bone soaked in blood.

With this strike,

the Musk Ox’s head was almost disfigured,

making it look extremely ferocious and frightening.

The Musk Ox endured the pain,

still aiming to plunge its sharp horns into the White Wolf’s body.

Its eyes were filled with dense, red veins,

in a last, most desperate struggle.

For this White Wolf was too strong.

Not only in Speed, but in Strength as well!

“Moo!”

The Musk Ox charged viciously towards the wolf’s body!

But its speed was too slow,

and even at a close distance,

Su Lin simply moved slightly to the side, dodging the Musk Ox’s attack.

Afterward,

the sharp Wolf Claw, like the edge of a blade, went straight for the Musk Ox’s neck.

Rip!

The severely wounded Musk Ox suffered another heavy hit.

Blood gushed out.

Under the strike of the sharp Wolf Claw, the Musk Ox felt as if its neck was about to break.

It began to have difficulty breathing,

as its massive Vitality was slipping away.

But it was still struggling,

still aiming to inflict wounds on the White Wolf.

It dragged its hefty body, heading towards the White Wolf with its horns.

But its neck was severely injured,

and it couldn’t even lift its head.

The horns were aimed only at the White Wolf’s claws.

Despite this,

it still charged fiercely.

Bam!

This time,

Su Lin did not dodge at all, as the severely injured Musk Ox had little threat left.

He faced it and struck at the enormous head of the Musk Ox!

With this strike, not only was the head’s flesh torn apart again,

but its eyes were also made bloodshot,

turning a blood red.

The Musk Ox stared with those bloodshot eyes, knowing it was close to death,

but it still propped itself up, refusing to fall.

Bam!

Another ruthless strike!

Half of the face of the Musk Ox Leader, along with one ear, was again torn off by the Wolf Claw.

It still stood, with blood-red eyes staring intently at Su Lin.

Bam!

Another claw strike!

This blow landed on the neck, slashing open the large artery there.

Even if the Musk Ox wanted to bellow, it could no longer make a sound!

This time,

the Musk Ox felt it couldn’t stand any longer,

staggering backward until it finally fell to the ground with a crash.

“Huff! Huff!”

The fallen Musk Ox, with its massive Vitality, hadn’t completely died yet.

It began to breathe heavily,

still making its last struggles, trying to stand up.

But it was all in vain.

The Musk Ox couldn’t stand,

the injuries it sustained were too serious.

Meanwhile,

the rest of the Musk Ox Group, not far away, watched the scene of the White Wolf savagely killing their leader.

In every pair of purple bovine eyes, there was a look of terror.

This expression rarely appeared on the usually indomitable Musk Oxen,

but the tragic sight of their own kind was most capable of breaking their psychological defenses.

The once mighty and majestic leader, in their eyes, was now being tortured by the White Wolf!

They grew more restless, huddling closely together.

As for Xiao Hui, Little Lone Wolf, and the two wolfesses,

seeing the Lead Wolf successfully hunt the Musk Ox Leader, a chorus of long howls expressed their surprise and excitement.

After that,

they completely let loose, surrounding and blocking the Musk Ox Group.

After all, splitting up the battlefield

was only to better hunt the prey.

Once the prey was entirely hunted down,

the Wolf Pack naturally began to slowly regroup and orderly approach Su Lin’s side.

When the Wolf Pack had fully gathered around Su Lin,

the spirit in the eyes of the Musk Ox Leader also completely disappeared.

This was an unequal hunt!

If the Musk Ox Leader hadn’t separated from the Musk Ox Group, it might still have had the strength to fight Su Lin.

The Musk Ox Group’s collective charging and defense were indeed terrifying.

But once it had left the group,

against Su Lin, who had even hunted Grizzly Bears, it hardly had the power to fight back.

Slaughter!

It was an utterly one-sided slaughter!

The Musk Ox Leader, despite being unwilling, eventually lay still.

The massive body fell to the ground.

The blood flowing from beneath it dyed a large expanse of snow red.

Su Lin’s strength was not what it used to be,

and hunting Musk Oxen,

no longer took as much effort as the first time.

Even though it didn’t take much effort, several pale gray messages still flashed before his eyes.

Overcoming the strong!

First group battle!

Coordinated engagement!

Ultimate victory!

Target deceased!

Combat Rating: S.

[Combat Rating for this battle: S, received one Strengthening Serum.]

“Hmm? An S rating again? First group battle?”

Su Lin was a bit surprised.

The hunt this time hardly required any effort; it was the Wolf Pack’s initial division of the battlefield that was impressive.

First group battle, this was a newly added criterion for Combat Rating.

It seems,

that the combat rating also includes group battle scores.

However, there may not be a first-time bonus again during subsequent group battles.

This was a pleasant surprise for Su Lin.

The extra Strengthening Serum,

was what he needed most to enhance his strength at the moment.

“Ao!”

He let out a long howl to vent his feelings of joy and surprise.

Following his long howl,

the regrouped Wolf Pack also began to howl.

“Ao!”

“Ao!”

“Ao!”

…

Howls of wolves,

were echoing one after another, unending.

Reverberating in the frigid icy wilderness, they seemed to be declaring who ruled this region.

Next,

Su Lin began to eat,

having not tasted such delicious beef in a long time.

The meat of the Musk Ox was tough and juicy, extremely tender and delicious.

To the Wolf Clan’s taste buds, the faint taste of fresh blood on the raw meat was the best seasoning!

“Ding! Host has consumed Musk Ox, gaining 0.1 Evolution Points.”

The Evolution Points gained from eating Musk Ox Meat had reached its lower limit.

However, after devouring more than a dozen pounds, Su Lin had still gained about seven points of Evolution Points.

These Evolution Points were better than none.

After gulping down more than a dozen pounds of fresh and tender beef, Su Lin felt about sixty to seventy percent full.

Then, the rest of the Wolf Pack members also began to eat.

Meanwhile, the little Musk Ox, taking advantage of the Wolf Pack’s mealtime, cautiously climbed back to the Musk Ox Group.

Regarding the young Musk Ox’s movements, Su Lin just took a glance before withdrawing his gaze.

The calf was still small and needed more time to grow.

As for the nearby Musk Ox Group,

Su Lin believed it wouldn’t take many days before,

after brutal internal power struggles, a new leader would emerge,

then continue leading the Musk Ox Group to survive and thrive.

Of course, if they thought about moving out of the Wolf Pack’s territory, that would be impossible.

The two patrolling wolfesses would constantly keep their eyes on them.
