Pet King Chapter 1566 - The Wolf Pack

Chapter 1566: The Wolf Pack

This was a very strange team, led by a young gray wolf, followed by a man, a dog, a monkey, two birds, and a few cats. There was a small herd of deer some distance behind. As for the place further back, in the dense forest, there might be black bears and coyotes waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.

Such a huge team trekked through the dense jungle like a drop of water in the sea. Even if they flew directly above in a helicopter, they could not see any signs of existence.

After walking for an hour or two, famous ran back to Zhang Zian and whispered,””There’s the smell of other wolves, cats … And humans, but they’re not recent. ”

Zhang Zian nodded, signaling the Elfins to be more alert. The wolves were right in front of them, and it was impossible to tell if they were friends or enemies.

He took a few steps back, stopped a deer, and pointed to the side, telling them to stop there and not move forward. The deer was still a little unhappy until he hid his backpack in a tree hole next to him, indicating that he would come back. The deer then led the herd into rest mode and lowered their heads to gnaw on gra.s.s, leaves, and wild fruits.

If the wolves in this forest had not disappeared for nearly a hundred years, the deers would not have been able to follow him all this time. No matter how much they liked to lick the salt and trust him, it was impossible. They had already forgotten how dangerous the wolves were. It was like sending sheep into the wolves ‘mouth.

The young gray wolf seemed to be eager to reunite with his family. Despite the pain from the wound on his back leg, which was still scratched by snowy Lionet, he quickened his pace. Zhang Zian, who was light and simple, followed closely with the Elfins.

After walking for a while, they could not accurately judge the distance in the forest. The front suddenly opened up. The trees had temporarily disappeared, and what appeared in front of them was a low hill made of rocks.

Several wolves were wandering among the rocks. There were about ten of them, including the young gray wolves, including both adult and young wolves.

A Wolf Pack was usually made up of a large family, including the alpha couple, their siblings, and their children. For example, the young gray wolf might be the child of the alpha couple, who had grown up but had not yet separated from the pack.

Strictly speaking, the Wolf Pack was not ruled by a male Alpha Wolf, but by a couple. The male Alpha Wolf managed the male wolf, and the female Alpha Wolf managed the female Wolf. They also raised the young wolves, just like the Emperor and the Empress, who were in charge of the outside and the inside.

Zhang Zian quickly recognized the alpha Wolf. It was a strong adult male wolf standing on a stone, and its spouse was taking care of three puppy-like young wolves. The other wolves were chasing and playing in the open s.p.a.ce in front of the stones. However, their playing was very dangerous to humans. It was like they were seriously biting each other. Their fur was flying everywhere, and sometimes they even bit and bled.

The male wolf that had once picked up a coyote was also among them. It might be the brother of the alpha.

The sudden appearance of Zhang Zian and the elves made the wolves panic. Wolves were the top carnivores in the forest, and even black bears did not dare to provoke them easily. However, mountain lions could only stay away from them, let alone coyotes. Their only natural enemy was humans.

The humans had once exterminated the gray wolves on this land. Now that they had returned, if the humans wanted to, they could exterminate them again.

What made the wolves even angrier was that there was actually a traitor among them. It was the young male wolf who led people into the house and brought dangerous humans to them.

The alpha Wolf jumped down from the stone and roared at the young male wolf a few times, but it didn’t have time to reprimand it further. It just bared its fangs at Zhang Zian and glared at him.

The other wolves, except for the ignorant young wolves, all rushed over and surrounded Zhang Zian and the others in a fan shape. As long as the alpha Wolf gave the order, or he did something extreme to stimulate them, they would all rush forward.

The young male wolf whimpered in grievance, hesitating at the side and looking very confused.

There was a strict hierarchy within the canine groups of wolves and dogs. The alpha couple, as the highest level, was called alpha, and the second level was beta, which was equivalent to middle management. The rest were Omega, who acted as underlings.

The adult male wolf that bit a coyote and took it away should be betta, and this young male wolf should be Omega.

Becoming either a beta or an Omega did not depend on the Wolf’s size, but on the Wolf’s age and character. The gentle Wolf that had just reached adulthood would be Omega. When it was a few years older and had honed its superb hunting skills, it would become as ferocious as other wolves. It would challenge beta wolves, and after winning, it would become beta.

Of course, Omega wolves would sometimes leave their pack and become lone wolves. They would either establish their own family or die alone while wandering.

The success rate of a Wolf Pack hunting was only one in ten, and the success rate of a lone wolf hunting on its own was even lower. Without the protection of the Wolf Pack, a lone wolf would face a great survival crisis. Most of the time, they would die in a foreign land, or they would attack the domestic animals of humans because they were too hungry. That would be even more suicidal.

The previous beta wolf took advantage of the confrontation between the Coyotes and Zhang Zian to successfully sneak attack and bite a coyote to death, and calmly retreated with its prey under the siege of three or four coyotes. Its rich hunting skills could be seen. In the face of Zhang Zian’s food attack, the young male wolf easily let down his guard, because he was a young and gentle Omega Wolf.

If the two were reversed, the young male wolf would probably have to give up the prey in his hands and escape in a hurry, while the adult male wolf would probably fight to the death if it was surrounded by elves.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zian knew that things were not good. He had hoped that the young male wolf would introduce his fair-weather friend to the Wolf Pack, but his status in the Wolf Pack was too low. In the face of the powerful alpha wolves and beta wolves, he couldn’t even interrupt.

If they had met in another place, the Wolf Pack’s reaction might not have been so intense, but most mammals were protective of their Cubs, and the Wolf Pack had a strong sense of territory. They might have thought that he was going to hurt the three young wolves, and in order to protect their Cubs, they would definitely fight to the death.

Zhang Zian didn’t dare to make any big movements, and he didn’t dare to try to lure the wolves with something like beef jerky. He guessed that it wouldn’t be of any use either, as that little bit of beef jerky wasn’t even enough to fill the gaps between the wolves ‘teeth.

He quietly held the bear-proof spray. If the wolves rushed over, he would spray it in a circle in front of him in a curved manner to scare them off and then take the opportunity to escape.

The elves were also on high alert. In order to save his own life, Richard flew to the branch on his own.

He secretly made a gesture to the elves, asking them to slowly retreat.

At this moment, the wolves seemed to have heard something and looked back in unison. Their eyes were fixed on the highest point of the pile of rocks, but there was nothing there.
