"Ah, so comfortable!"
Reclining by the fireplace, the lynx sighed contentedly.
It had already felt the conveniences of human society, specifically this warm stove.
The lynx felt it couldn’t part with this thing anymore.
Chen Wen tossed so gathered firewood into the stove, letting himself return to human form.
He piled so pillows and similar items left behind on the ground, making himself a bed.
The Snowy Owl stood a bit farther from the fireplace and asked, "Human, are we staying here? Isn’t this place too close to those people?"
"Don’t worry, I know those people."
Chen Wen lay on the bed, lazily waving his hand: "Right now, that group of people’s only goal is the gold in the water. They won’t expend effort looking for us."
"Besides, almost all the camp’s supplies have been transported by them; they won’t trek kiloters through the snow for those insignificant resources."
Seeing the Snowy Owl still worried, Chen Wen said, "How about this, during the day, the Golden Eagle and I will stand guard; at night, you and the lynx take turns. How does that sound?"
Only then did the Snowy Owl nod.
With enemies ahead, it had to be cautious.
Chen Wen seed to realize this too, asking if the Snowy Owl had any plans.
But the Snowy Owl looked a bit lost.
It didn’t know how to take revenge on those humans.
Seeing this, Chen Wen didn’t say much more.
He only reminded the Snowy Owl that the program crew and those survivors were innocent.
The real enemies of the Snowy Owl were the rcenaries.
If the Snowy Owl wanted revenge, it was best to wait until the rcenaries found the gold and began to withdraw.
The Snowy Owl nodded but was still sowhat at a loss on how to take revenge.
Chen Wen glanced at the weather outside; today’s snow seed a bit lighter.
He asked the Golden Eagle to go out and look around for traces of a wolf pack.
"Look for any sounds of wolves howling nearby and any fresh animal carcasses. If there are any, let know."
The Golden Eagle received its instructions and imdiately took flight.
Chen Wen lay on the bed, thinking about how to snatch the gold from the rcenaries.
He currently had only a rough plan, which was to attract a wolf pack using the "Leader’s Howl."
Let the wolf pack draw attention.
anwhile, Chen Wen himself planned to seize so gold amid the chaos.
Although this plan was crude, it was the best Chen Wen could think of at the mont.
He had previously considered a night assault, but the rcenaries still had combat prowess.
Even if he transford into a grizzly, he was still a carbon-based life form.
That large-caliber pistol, if hit, could cripple if not kill.
For re gold, it wasn’t worth the risk.
...
Soon, the Golden Eagle returned.
"There’s a wolf pack, even larger than the one we encountered before!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Wen was instantly invigorated.
He flipped over quickly, sitting up: "Where? How many wolves?"
In response, the Golden Eagle stretched its head towards the northwest: "Over there, nearly twenty wolves!"
Hiss!
Chen Wen was imdiately taken aback.
Twenty wolves!
Good heavens!
That’s already twice the size of a regular wolf pack!
Extrely intimidating.
Chen Wen said: "Let’s go, let’s take a look, the lynx and the Snowy Owl will watch the house."
After giving instructions to his animals, Chen Wen and the Golden Eagle left the shelter.
A man and an eagle soared into the sky, beginning their search for the northern gray wolf pack.
Under the guidance of the Golden Eagle, Chen Wen and the Golden Eagle arrived at a dense pine forest.
This pack of nearly twenty wolves was camping right here.
"Holy crap, there’re almost thirteen adult North Arican gray wolves in the pack!"
Chen Wen hovered in the air, observing the wolves below, marveling internally.
This wolf pack, in this region, is probably at the top of the food chain!
Without a doubt!
Chen Wen thought for a mont, deciding to make contact with the wolf pack first.
He gradually lowered his hovering height until he was above the pack of wolves.
Soon enough, the sentinel wolf within the resting pack noticed Chen Wen.
It lifted its head, emitting a warning.
Instantly, nurous North Arican gray wolves raised their heads, staring at Chen Wen.
A dozen pairs of ghostly wolf eyes fixed on Chen Wen, making him feel pressured.
"Oh boy, the oppressive aura of this wolf pack is really strong!"
Chen Wen landed on a pine tree, interestedly watching the wolf pack.
With Hua Yun, he was sowhat worried about encountering a wolf pack.
But if it was just Chen Wen himself, he had no fear of encountering wolves.
As long as wolves couldn’t fly, how could they deal with him?
"Good morning, everyone!"
Chen Wen stood on the tree, waving cheerfully: "What are you up to? Have you eaten?"
The Golden Eagle flapped its wings, also looking like it was eting old friends: "What are you eating? Are you full?"
Among the wolf pack, there were no unique animals, and there was no response.
Chen Wen felt a bit disappointed.
But with no unique animals, using these wolves didn’t weigh on Chen Wen’s conscience.
He scanned the wolf pack, looking for the alpha.
Soon, a particularly robust black wolf caught Chen Wen’s attention.
This guy, it should be the alpha, right?
Chen Wen broke off a pine needle and tossed it at the black wolf: "Hey, are you the wolf king?"
The pine needle landed around the black wolf, causing no harm, but was full of insult.
Awooo!
The black wolf let out an angry howl.
The nearby wolf pack stirred, also joining in with howls.
"Heh, as expected."
After identifying the alpha, Chen Wen felt much more at ease.
He watched the alpha, appraising its combat abilities.
"In a life-or-death battle, I would kill it in seconds; an unscathed solo kill would require a trap; in a forest encounter, I would probably climb a tree to evade."
Chen Wen analyzed.
He planned to try the "Leader’s Howl" to see its effect.
While the wolf pack rustled and attempted to climb trees to attack Chen Wen—
"Awooo~~~~~"
A prolonged howl erged from Chen Wen’s throat; the sound unique to the alpha threw the wolf pack below into chaos.
The two gray wolves that eagerly attempted to attack Chen Wen tucked their tails and fled, not daring to linger.
Most of the pack also lowered their heads, not daring to et the eyes of the peculiar high-flying alpha wolf.
Even the wolf king felt the pressure.
Awooo~!
It made a reply, though there was fear in its eyes, it still took two steps forward, confronting Chen Wen.
"A tough cookie?"
Chen Wen leapt down from the tree, transforming into a **North Arican Grizzly Bear** mid-jump.
When Chen Wen landed, he resud his long-lost grizzly bear form!
The Golden Eagle, seeing Chen Wen suddenly disappear and a grizzly bear appear, was utterly confused.
What’s going on?
Is this really a human?
Isn’t this a grizzly bear?
Moreover, why does this grizzly bear have such large wings? And they’re the sa as mine!
Watching the bear with a wingspan of close to fifteen ters, the Golden Eagle was really baffled.
Chen Wen ignored the Golden Eagle, taking a step forward instead.
The hefty forepaw slapped the ground, scattering the snow.
"Awooo! Submit! Or die!"
The wolf’s howl, tinged with a slight Yukon accent, sounded out, and the black wolf king kneeled completely.
Damnit, I could still fight that two-legged creature.
But what is this grizzly bear!
Even with its tribe, they couldn’t possibly provoke a grizzly bear!
The wolf king gave in.
It lowered its proud head, submissively tucking its tail, its ears pinned back against its head.
As Chen Wen approached, it even rolled over, exposing its most vulnerable neck and belly.
Seeing this, Chen Wen thought the black wolf king was quite sensible.
He walked up to the wolf king, and the wolf king extended its tongue, gently nibbling on Chen Wen’s nose in bear form.
This was a way for a lower-ranked wolf to express submission to a higher-ranked wolf within the pack.
