Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

Though the Grizzly Bear was already dead, some scent still lingered.

This made Xiao Hui's fur stand on end.

After all, it had followed the leader on many hunts,

and had encountered Grizzly Bears two or three times, knowing their ferocity.

But it quickly realized that the Grizzly Bear was dead.

"Ao!"

It let out two incredulous howls,

and although its leader had always been valiant and invincible in its heart,

it had never imagined that the leader could actually hunt a Grizzly Bear.

My God!

This filled its eyes with admiring little stars.

"Smack!"

Su Lin rewarded it with a swipe of his paw, signaling it to get to work and drag the Grizzly Bear's corpse back to the cave.

Su Lin had fought hard against the Grizzly Bear and sustained serious injuries,

and with his injuries pulling at him, it was difficult to drag the six-hundred-plus-pound Grizzly Bear up the mountain alone.

Only with Xiao Hui's and Su Lin's combined effort could they drag the Grizzly Bear into the cave.

When the heavy corpse of the Grizzly Bear appeared in the cave,

Cousin, Wolf Sister, and Grey White Little Wolf were also very surprised.

They had never seen a Grizzly Bear before,

Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf curiously circled the Grizzly Bear's body, sniffing here, sniffing there.

Yet Cousin was very observant and noticed the wounds on Su Lin's body,

She approached Su Lin and started to affectionately lick the blood and wounds out of his fur.

The saliva of the Wolf Clan contains a substance with antibacterial properties and a certain anti-inflammatory effect.

So, after an injury,

many of the Wolf Clan would lick their wounds.

Su Lin had originally wanted to decline.

After all, his Healing Talent was much more useful than saliva.

But seeing the concerned look in Cousin's eyes, he decided to let her continue.

"Ao!"

Su Lin gave a low howl to remind Xiao Hui not to forget to stay vigilant.

"Ao!"

Obediently, Xiao Hui scampered to the entrance of the cave to stand guard.

Although it was usually quite mischievous, it was reliable when it mattered.

After Cousin had licked Su Lin's wounds several times,

Su Lin signaled for Cousin to take Wolf Sister and start eating,

While he returned to his original spot, leaned against the cave's stone wall, and began to rest.

The battle with the Grizzly Bear had drained him of considerable energy and strength.

He needed time to rest and recover.

After lying down, it wasn't long before Su Lin drifted off to sleep.

A quiet night passed.

....

In the days of polar night,

there was no day, no night,

Time had almost been forgotten.

Every day one woke up to pitch darkness.

When Su Lin awoke, he felt pain all over his body.

This was clear evidence of the severity of the wounds sustained from the fight with the Grizzly Bear.

He hadn't felt such intense pain yesterday, probably because his nerves had been too strained, suppressing the sensation of pain.

However, he could endure the body pain,

And the Healing Talent was at work; the wounds that had been bleeding had already scabbed over,

and the injuries were slowly mending.

"Ao!"

Su Lin stood up and stretched his body,

then let out a low howl, calling Xiao Hui, and walked out of the cave to start their daily patrol.

Xiao Hui also noticed his leader's injury,

and approached, wanting to help lick the wound.

But Su Lin stopped him.

After all, the wound had just formed a scab, and he didn't want Xiao Hui, that silly pooch, to lick it off again.

Next,

he took Xiao Hui for a patrol around the cave.

Soon, they spotted an Arctic Rabbit.

There was only one,

likely having strayed off its path and accidentally wandered in.

"Ao!"

Xiao Hui wanted to show off in front of the leader,

and immediately let out a low howl before making a move.

It didn't charge forward rashly like the first time it went hunting,

knowing it didn't have the same speed as its leader,

Xiao Hui began to use the mountain terrain and snowdrifts to conceal itself.

Only when it was about to reach the Arctic Rabbit did it suddenly burst forth,

its sharp Wolf Claw brutally aiming at the Arctic Rabbit.

Yet, the unsuspected visitor, the Arctic Rabbit, had very sharp hearing,

and started to run for its life as soon as Xiao Hui leapt out from behind the snowdrift.

"Bang!"

The Wolf Claw missed its target, striking the snow, which annoyed Xiao Hui greatly.

It had lost face in front of its leader again!

"Ao!"

It let out an angry howl and chased after the Arctic Rabbit.

The Arctic Rabbit was clearly unfamiliar with the environment and was quickly cornered by Xiao Hui in front of a snowdrift.

In its anger, Xiao Hui pinned the helpless Arctic Rabbit to the ground,

its sharp fangs piercing the neck of the Arctic Rabbit, sending blood splattering.

The Arctic Rabbit struggled for a moment before going still.

Now holding the Arctic Rabbit in its mouth, Xiao Hui trotted back to the leader.

"Ao!"

Su Lin let out a low howl and did not deny Xiao Hui's kill this time.

After all, there was some progress compared to before.

This made Xiao Hui jump for joy.

Next,

he and Xiao Hui returned to the cave,

the Arctic Rabbit would serve as a change of taste for the group of cubs.

Su Lin didn't eat at all,

taking advantage of the effects of the Evolution Potion he used yesterday,

he went to the Grizzly Bear's corpse and started to feed again.

The Grizzly Bear's meat was rich in nutrients, eating more could help speed up his recovery.

And the Grizzly Bear's meat could still provide him with a considerable amount of Evolution Points.

"Ding! Host has consumed Grizzly Bear, obtained 9.5 Evolution Points."

"Ding! Host has consumed Grizzly Bear, obtained 9 Evolution Points."

"Ding! Host has consumed Grizzly Bear, obtained 8.5 Evolution Points."

...

Su Lin's appetite was voracious,

he devoured twenty pounds of the Grizzly Bear's tender flesh in one go.

He even searched for the Bear Gall on the Grizzly Bear's body.

There were rumors that the Bear Gall was the essence of the Bear Clan's body.

It had a variety of effects, such as clearing heat and detoxifying, soothing the liver, and improving vision.

Thus, many countries had a tradition of killing bears to extract their gallbladders in the past.
