Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

The salmon in its mouth, now reduced to a skeleton from gnawing, fell to the ground unnoticed.

And not far away, a group of seals, seeing such a large Northern Dogfish being caught,

were all exchanging glances in bewilderment.

It was common knowledge that fishing and eating shrimp were their specialties, but what was the deal with this Arctic Wolf?

Its catch was way better than theirs.

The sharp, elongated cries of the seals rose and fell in succession,

the penetrating call tinged with a hint of surprise.

As for Su Lin,

after thoroughly killing the massive Northern Dogfish with a smack, he shook off the droplets of water that had splashed onto him.

Then, he glanced at the group of seals,

actually rather covetous of seal meat himself.

But seals are not unintelligent and are highly vigilant.

At the sign of danger, they would dive straight into the sea.

Hunting them was no small challenge,

so after a look, he shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Seeing Xiao Hui still standing in place, stunned by the massive Northern Dogfish,

he walked over and brought him to his senses with a smack of his paw.

"Ow!"

Su Lin let out a low howl, instructing Xiao Hui to drag the Northern Dogfish back to the cave.

The Northern Dogfish appeared large,

but wasn't as heavy as one might expect.

It weighed around eighty or ninety pounds,

a weight that Xiao Hui could easily drag.

Besides, the fish's slick scales offered very little friction on ice and snow.

With Xiao Hui's strength, pulling the Northern Dogfish across the icy ground as if flying was no trouble at all.

By the time Xiao Hui recovered from the paw swipe, it was still visibly shocked,

approaching the Northern Dogfish and howling at it.

Su Lin motioned for him to get on with it quickly.

After all, polar bears often roamed the area around the ice layer.

"Ow!"

Xiao Hui let out a low howl, very obedient to the pack leader's commands,

and immediately sprang into action.

First, it tried to bite the fish tail with its teeth,

but the tail was so slippery that it failed several times.

Then, it ran to the middle of the fish but found no good grip there either.

Anxious, Xiao Hui began circling around the massive Northern Dogfish.

Seeing this, Su Lin couldn't help but sigh.

He let out a low howl, indicating Xiao Hui to bite the dogfish's lower jaw.

The jaw lacked scales and was already torn, creating a bloody gash that could be easily gripped.

But even with Su Lin's guidance, the naive creature took several attempts before finally succeeding.

Once it had a firm grip, it excitedly began to run.

Dragging the Northern Dogfish along the ice was effortless,

and Xiao Hui covered a considerable distance in no time.

Moving on, Su Lin too picked up an Arctic Salmon from the ground and started heading back toward the cave.

Su Lin's pace was much faster than Xiao Hui's; soon, he was ahead.

However,

just as he was about to exit the icy area, Su Lin's sharp sixth sense,

suddenly issued a very dangerous signal to him.

It was the first time since breaking through to Level 6 that he'd felt such a strong sense of danger.

He immediately stopped in his tracks and stood still.

When Xiao Hui was about to cheerfully continue running,

a glance back from him brought Xiao Hui to a halt.

Xiao Hui also quickly sensed something wrong and looked around nervously.

Soon,

Su Lin saw a gigantic ice outlet up ahead,

where a massive adult male Polar Bear with a ferocious aura had climbed up from the ice hole,

still dragging a White Whale measuring more than three meters in length.

After climbing up, the Polar Bear threw the carcass of the White Whale onto the ice,

Bang!

The weight of the White Whale's body made the ice shudder and scattered countless ice chips.

This Polar Bear, soaked entirely in a mixture of seawater and fresh blood,

was almost completely covered in the red liquid, obscuring its natural fur color.

Having just engaged in a fierce battle, it panted heavily,

"Huff! Huff!"

The breath it expelled, in the bone-chilling Arctic temperature,

turned into wisps of steam, drifting into the air.

For a moment,

against the backdrop of the White Whale's fresh blood,

the ferocity and wildness of the Polar Bear soared unrestrained.

Xiao Hui, overwhelmed by this imposing aura, dared not make a move,

shivering and standing frozen in place.

It was as if there was a natural species suppression at work.

In the Arctic Circle,

the Polar Bear, having reigned supreme for countless years, had virtually no rivals.

And no natural predators!

What often sent them to their graves were bloody battles with their own kind and the harsh natural environment.

The Polar Bear in front of them, capable of hunting whales alone, was no exception!

Even among Polar Bears, it was an indisputable powerhouse.

At this moment,

this Polar Bear, radiating an untamed presence, also noticed Su Lin and Xiao Hui.

It stood erect on its massive body, nearly three meters tall,

locking its eyes on the two Arctic Wolves that had appeared on the ice without notice.

Su Lin too narrowed his Wolf Eyes, looking towards the Polar Bear.

With a thought,

the Numerical Attributes of the Polar Bear emerged before him.

Species: Polar Bear (Male).

Level: 16.

Qi-Blood: 2651.

Endurance: 173.

Strength: 169.

Defense: 167.

Speed: 69.

Strong!

Very strong!

Upon seeing the Numerical Attributes of the Polar Bear, Su Lin couldn't help but be astonished.

No wonder he had felt such a strong sense of crisis just before.

The strength of this Polar Bear,

compared to the Grizzly Bear he had hunted some time ago,

was like comparing heaven and earth.

It truly deserved its reputation as the Arctic Overlord.

Capable of coming ashore, diving into the water,

its endurance, strength, and defense were all unmatched.

Unrivaled by brute force on land, it could also hunt White Whales in the sea.

It was as if nature had handed it its sustenance on a silver platter.

Under the beautiful auroras,

the Polar Bear's gaze met Su Lin's green-glowing Wolf Eyes for a long while.

However, it was clear,

that the Polar Bear, having caught a White Whale today, had already expended a significant amount of energy,

and it had also spotted Su Lin and Xiao Hui with their catch of Northern Dogfish.

A simple intelligence allowed it to understand that these two Arctic Wolves were not there for it,

and so it did nothing,

but silently withdrew its gaze and began to lie on the White Whale's carcass,

devouring its fat to replenish its own spent energy.

Su Lin also breathed a sigh of relief,

signaling Xiao Hui to haul away the Northern Dogfish first.

Under the lead's indication, Xiao Hui reluctantly forced its trembling body to slowly leave with the Dogfish in its mouth.

But after walking some distance, it became worried about its leader and turned back to look.

It saw only its leader, Su Lin, walking over at a leisurely pace.

Su Lin did not rush as though fleeing,

because on one hand, his speed was more than sufficient to outpace the Polar Bear,

and on the other, in the wilderness, one should never show fear recklessly.

Otherwise, it could easily trigger the other party's hunting instincts.

After Su Lin caught up, he playfully smacked the stationary Xiao Hui with his paw,

indicating that it should quickly bring the Northern Dogfish back to the cave.

Only then did Xiao Hui return to its usual goofy self,

grabbing the Dogfish and scampering away.
