The weather on the Arctic Continent was growing colder and colder.
Daylight was also becoming shorter and shorter. Just as a thin white line appeared in the sky, darkness fell once more.
The polar night was about to shroud this place.
Many animals had also migrated away from the Arctic Continent.
This made competition among hunters on the Arctic Continent even more brutal.
"Awoo!"
In the darkness, Su Lin stood at the entrance of the cave, gazing out over the vast icy wilderness below.
A clear, resounding wolf howl echoed through the sky.
Inside the cave, Little Gray, Wolf Sister, Cousin Sister, and the Gray-White Little Wolf were sleeping huddled together.
In Su Lin's newly formed wolf pack, only he and Little Gray could currently go out to hunt.
As for Cousin Sister, although she had reached Level 3,
she was not a mutant species, so her strength was far inferior to Little Gray's.
Still, she was more than capable of staying behind to look after the Gray-White Little Wolf and Wolf Sister.
Although there were not many wolves in the pack now,
the atmosphere was relatively harmonious.
Time passed quickly, and half a month went by in the blink of an eye.
The polar night had completely descended.
The region where Su Lin lived was shrouded in darkness all day long, without a trace of light.
With the arrival of the polar night, the temperature had also dropped to around minus twenty degrees Celsius.
Even inside the cave,
Wolf Sister either hid in his arms or snuggled against Cousin Sister for warmth.
The Gray-White Little Wolf hid beside a wind-sheltered rock, curled into a ball. Only when Little Gray slept could it draw a little warmth from her body.
As for Little Gray and Cousin Sister, they had already reached Level 3,
so they could withstand this bit of harsh cold.
There was naturally no need to mention Su Lin.
Fortunately, there was enough food. Though it was colder, Wolf Sister and the Gray-White Little Wolf were both growing rapidly.
Once they reached around Level 2, they would be able to resist this kind of bitter cold.
During this time, Su Lin took Little Gray down the mountain to hunt many times.
The polar night had arrived, and all things lay desolate.
But there were still some prey to be found.
"Awoo!"
Wolf howls echoed through the pitch-black Arctic.
Su Lin and Little Gray had not caught any large herbivores during this period.
However, the variety of prey they obtained had increased.
Prey they had usually overlooked in the past had now entered Su Lin's diet.
As a result, although his hunting gains had been smaller lately, Su Lin's Evolution Points had been rising rapidly.
Today's haul was quite good as well. They had hunted down a den of Arctic Foxes.
Arctic Foxes were among the most vigilant animals on the Arctic Continent, and they were hunters themselves.
That made them difficult for other hunters to kill.
Today, Little Gray had found the Arctic Fox den purely by accident.
The den was located on a hill and had several exits.
It was well-built inside, with passages stretching in all directions. Little Gray's smaller body allowed her to crawl in.
Su Lin stayed outside the whole time, waiting for the foxes to emerge.
Once the Arctic Foxes fled from the den, he relied on his extreme speed to hunt them down.
Faced with Su Lin, whose body was nearly two meters long, the Arctic Foxes could not even muster the will to resist. They fled in panic.
This den of Arctic Foxes consisted of one male, two females, and seven cubs with body lengths of a little over forty centimeters.
The leading male Arctic Fox was fairly strong, especially since it could flee extremely quickly.
If it had encountered other Arctic Wolves, it would have escaped long ago.
Unfortunately, it had encountered Su Lin.
Su Lin killed the three adult Arctic Foxes first. The remaining cubs were not very fast.
He quickly killed four of them, then captured one alive.
As for the other two that escaped, both were female cubs.
They had already run far away, and Su Lin could not be bothered to chase them.
Species: Arctic Fox (Male, deceased). Level: 4. Vitality: 439. Endurance: 45. Strength: 39. Defense: 33. Speed: 51.
The largest male Arctic Fox possessed the strength of Level 4, and its Speed had even reached 51.
Even Little Gray could not catch up to it.
It was less than a meter long, only around seventy or eighty centimeters.
However, its body was slender and its waist was narrow. It weighed less than half as much as animals of the same size.
There were also two female Arctic Foxes, and they were only slightly smaller than the male.
Su Lin had to admit that, in his eyes, Arctic Foxes ranked among the best-looking animals in the entire Arctic Circle.
Their foreheads were narrow, their muzzles pointed, and their ears rounded.
Their eyes were light brown, making them look utterly innocent whenever they looked at you.
The fur covering their entire bodies was as white as snow.
It was comparable to the fur on Su Lin's wolf body.
They also had a layer of white fur on the soles of their feet, making it easier to walk across ice and snow.
He had also heard that Arctic Fox fur could change color.
It was white during the cold season, then turned black when the warm season arrived.
But no matter how beautiful or adorable they were,
Su Lin, who had been reborn as a wolf for over three months, had long since become decisive and ruthless.
Cuteness and looks were not worth mentioning in the face of survival.
This den of Arctic Foxes was a new kind of prey Su Lin had hunted.
It would be enough to last them for several days.
The Auxiliary Evolution Potion could grant a threefold increase in Evolution Points.
This would probably provide him with quite a few Evolution Points as well.
By then, he would be about ready to break through to Level 6.
"Awoo!"
Su Lin let out a long howl, summoning Little Gray to bring the Arctic Foxes back to the cave.
Three adults and five cubs, eight Arctic Foxes in total.
Su Lin and Little Gray made two trips before carrying all the Arctic Foxes back to the cave.
After climbing back and forth so many times, Little Gray had become much more skilled at climbing the path to the cave.
After returning to the cave,
Su Lin threw the Arctic Fox cub he had captured alive, trembling in terror, to Wolf Sister and the Gray-White Little Wolf.
He then signaled for Cousin Sister to supervise the two of them as they practiced their hunting skills.
This little Arctic Fox was only Level 1.
It was perfect for Wolf Sister and the Gray-White Little Wolf to practice on.
There were still seventy or eighty pounds of Arctic Reindeer meat left.
That was enough to feed them for a while longer.
As for these Arctic Foxes,
he would bear this bloodshed himself.
His sharp fangs tore open the belly of an adult Arctic Fox. The once adorable fox was instantly drenched in blood.
As Su Lin ate, he also used an Evolution Potion.
Once the potion's energy surged through his entire body, he tore off a large chunk of flesh and swallowed it.
"Ding! Host consumed Arctic Fox and gained 12 Evolution Points."
With the Evolution Potion's boost, Su Lin's eyes lit up at the very first bite! So many Evolution Points—reaching Level 6 was just around the corner! At that thought, Su Lin, who had not had much of an appetite lately, suddenly found his appetite greatly stirred and began wolfing it down.
"Ding! Host consumed Arctic Fox and gained 11.5 Evolution Points."
"Ding! Host consumed Arctic Fox and gained 11 Evolution Points."
"Ding! Host consumed Arctic Fox and gained 10.5 Evolution Points."
