"Look. Between the ninth and tenth vertebrae of this Brain Sucking Worm, there's a perforated swelling. That's where its cartilage folded over."
The Wolf King pointed at a spot on the fossil and said to Meng Chao, "So, the direction indicated by these holes—the front left, rather than the front right indicated by the part that looks like a skull—is where we need to go."

The Wolf King said without hesitation.
And so, every time they passed a Ferocious Beast Bone Fossil, the Wolf King stopped to carefully identify its deadliest weapon.
Fortunately, his knowledge was vast and his memory formidable. He knew every famous Ferocious Beast recorded in Turan epics like the back of his hand, and could even vividly recount the entire course of their fierce battles against heroes.
Many Ferocious Beasts' deadliest weapons were not on their skeletons.

"This is it!"
Meng Chao and the Wolf King both perked up at once.
They both remembered that after setting
