Chapter 225: Chapter 166: The Terrifying Hunting Talent._2
After Su Lin returned, she chose the most comfortable spot in the Dissolving Cave to rest, guarded by her Cousin, Wolf Sister, Xiao Hui, and Little Lone Wolf.
Seeing the Wolf King begin to rest, the wolves in the cave kept their low howls to a minimum, silently continuing their feast.
Once they finished eating, they all lay down in their respective spots and fell into a deep sleep to relieve the fatigue of a day\'s bloody battle.
At this moment, the area became completely silent, with only the soft breathing of the wolf pack rising and falling in the cave and the rustling sound of the cold wind blowing over the ice outside.
In this silence, time also quietly slipped away.
....
The polar day and night are characteristics of the Arctic, and under both conditions, the sense of time becomes very vague.
Especially in this bitterly cold land of ice and snow, every species is too lazy to leave their nest, even more oblivious to the concept of time.
With an ample supply of food, the wolf pack had little incentive to venture out for hunting.
Only Little Lone Wolf took a group of wolves out during this time to patrol and monitor their territory, checking for any intruding hunters.
In such leisurely days, half a month passed in a flash.
In this half-month, most members of the wolf pack had digested the Variant Species Flesh that was distributed to them.
The abundance of the Variant Species Flesh distributed this time allowed for the emergence of several new variants in the wolf pack after digestion was complete.
Among them, Cousin\'s group added another Variant Species Wolfess, Little Lone Wolf\'s group also added a new Variant Species Wolf, and Xiao Hui\'s elite wolf clan added two.
As for the Bear Clan, no new Variant Species emerged this time.
The quantity of pure energy needed for the Bear Clan to evolve into a Variant Species was incomparable to what was required for the Wolf Clan.
Of the four new Variant Species and the two from the previous allocation, Su Lin did not assign codes to all of them, only to the two with higher potential.
One of them was a she-bear, codenamed White Bear.
This she-bear had taken down two Variant Species from the Musk Ox Group and Reindeer Group during the Wolf Clan\'s campaign, tying her for the most significant military achievements after Little Lone Wolf.
The other was a Wolfess under Cousin\'s command, codenamed Fox Wolf.
Since this Wolfess had a face more elongated than the average wolf and pointier ears, Su Lin gave her this codename.
Fox Wolf also had impressive potential. After evolving into a Variant Species, she reached Level Seven Peak in a short time by feasting on Variant Species Flesh.
Such growth potential was far superior to Cousin\'s potential.
As for the four newly ascended Variant Species, their growth potential was not outstanding, so Su Lin did not assign them codenames.
Su Lin then promoted Fox Wolf to a Beta Wolf position as Cousin\'s second-in-command.
White Bear was appointed as Xiao Bai\'s second-in-command, primarily in charge of leading the Bear Clan.
As for the rest, Su Lin also promoted Wolf Sister and Grey White Little Wolf to Beta Wolf positions.
Their achievements may not have been enough yet, but both had advanced to Level Eight Variant Species, had sufficient combat power, and after following Su Lin for many years, could accumulate merit over time.
After promoting them to Beta Wolves, excluding Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom, the wolf pack now had one Lead Wolf and seven Beta Wolves.
The strict hierarchy within the wolf pack was beginning to take shape.
To heighten the wolf pack\'s aspiration for the positions of Beta Wolf and Lead Wolf, Su Lin also established several new rules in the pack.
These pertained to mating rights.
Su Lin did not place much importance on the Wolfesses in the pack, nor did she care much about the so-called mating rights.
And in large wolf packs, aside from the Wolf King, even the Lead Wolves usually have mating rights.
But this time, Su Lin decided to extend mating rights to Beta Wolves.
Any Beta Wolf in the pack could choose a mate from the opposite sex within the clan.
If a Beta Wolf had special merit, they could be awarded an additional mate,
While Lead Wolves could have three mates of the opposite sex.
As for Su Lin, as the Wolf King, she had the ultimate authority to decide life and death for all members of the pack!
For a wolf pack living in the frozen wilderness, the most important things are the food they rely on for survival and mating rights, aside from food.
So when the Wolf King began to delegate mating rights to the Beta Wolves, the whole wolf pack almost boiled over, with each pair of wolf eyes seemingly lighting up with color in an instant.
The difference in status between a Beta Wolf and a Hai Wolf is just one level,
So each wolf had a burning fire in their heart, striving to climb onto the throne of a Hai Wolf in the future.
Having delegated mating rights, Maimed Ear, Ordinary Wolf, Fox Wolf, and others started seeking mates for themselves.
As for Xiao Hui, having been with her boss for a long time, she had become very discerning and considered ordinary Wolfesses beneath her.
Little Lone Wolf also wasn\'t interested at the moment, being busy on the front lines of the wolf pack every day.
After being awarded three Energy Fruits by Su Lin, Little Lone Wolf\'s abilities had soared in half a month, reaching the cusp of Level 15 Peak, just a hairsbreadth away from advancing to Level 16.
With her ferocious combat power, Little Lone Wolf could match up against Variant Species one or two levels higher than herself. Even when confronting a Level Twenty Variant Species, she could still hold her ground by activating her Ferocious Wolf Talent.
