Chance Encounter

In the woods, countless animals foraged, rested, and watched the excitement.

Three pink rabbits were eating tender grass. Not far from them, a lone wolf passed by without even looking at them.

Generally speaking, Mutated Beasts rarely attacked other Mutated Beasts. Most of the time, Mutated Beasts preyed on ordinary animals. Only when fighting over territory or under certain special circumstances would Mutated Beasts engage each other in life-or-death battles.
