I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village

Chapter 285: Wolf and Deer



Cang Shi’s purple eyes stayed fixed ahead. He was carefully observing the Giant Horned Deer and the wolf pack.

He had the Hunting Team take cover, waiting to move after the wolves initiated their attack, as it was too dangerous otherwise.

“Team Leader, how long do we have to wait?” Cheng Shi curiously asked.

The boy was getting impatient, eager to cross over. However, at the same time, he was curious to see what moves the wolf pack would make.

“They’re about to begin!” Team Leader Cang Shi raised his hand and softly said from the nearby tree.

When he said this, he was clearly excited. In fact, he got excited every time he watched wolves hunt. This was because there was much to learn from the wolves. Their style of fighting and hunting techniques were always excellent resources to learn from. Watching this pack hunt their prey was particularly thrilling.

“To hunt group-dwelling prey like the deer, the best method is to make them run.” Sha Hong quietly explained.

She had frequently visited the Hunting Ground before and knew at least that much about the wildlife.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The antlers that the Old Shaman wore were from Sha Hong. She had hunted one of them and had returned to the Tribe with those antlers.

Su Bai blinked his black eyes as he watched. The wolf pack that had been observing from a distance, seemingly just taking a stroll, was now gradually spreading out.

They slowly approached the deer herd, with several wolves trying to intimidate the deer at the edges.

To Su Bai, this scene was like watching a nature documentary. Wolves on Earth hunted prey the same way.

Su Bai was particularly eager to watch the wolves hunt their prey, as wolves could run even faster than wild horses.

Moreover, they could sprint 35 kilometers in snowy conditions without stopping, and could detect the scent of prey from 2 kilometers away.

These were not fictional superheroes, but real existing animals.

If wolves on Earth were already so formidable, the wolves of this primitive era must be even more impressive.

This was precisely why Su Bai was so eager to watch the wolf pack hunt. If these wolves proved to be truly exceptional, capturing one or two as mounts would be worthwhile, especially given their large size.

Meanwhile, due to the approaching wolves, the deer herd began to panic, backing off under the wolves’ intimidation.

Soon, the herd began to run, appearing extremely panicked and momentarily unsure what to do.

Most ran forward, while some broke away from the herd, fleeing in different directions.

The wolf pack also dispersed, sprinting with their powerful limbs, sensing suitable prey among the panicked herd.

“It’s starting. Watch carefully. The Three Tailed Wolves’ hunting ability is impressive. We can learn much from them.” Cang Shi said.

“Understood.” The five Warrior Trainees immediately responded.

Su Bai watched with particular absorption to the scene as the wolf pack ran at speeds beyond his imagination.

As the wolves ran, their claws firmly gripped the ground, even digging up some of the soil.

“See how the young deers are protected in the center of the herd by the adult deer with the stronger ones guarding them? Smart predators know it’s unwise to strike there.” Cang Shi carefully explained to the Warrior Trainees. “As for those who panic and flee from the herd, the Three Tailed Wolves will quickly identify the old, weak, sick, and injured among them.”

“Once the Three Tailed Wolves spot such deer, the other wolves in the pack will abandon chasing the healthy deer and turn their attention to these weaker ones.” Sha Hong added.

She knew a great deal about how Three Tailed Wolves hunted their prey. She had taught Cang Shi much of what he knew. As a Mid-Stage Totem Warrior, she naturally had more experience.

The five Warrior Trainees listened with rapt attention, their eyes completely drawn to the hunt before them.

Su Bai watched the wolves as they began to run and solemnly remarked, “So, even if you’re injured, never show weakness in front of Three Tailed Wolves.”

Cang Shi gave a firm nod and said. “The Shaman speaks the truth. More importantly, never let the wolf pack circle behind you. If they get behind you at your current level, you would have almost no chance of survival.”

He had to explain these things to the Warrior Trainees. Otherwise, these youngsters would know nothing and would only suffer for it later.

Yan Hua blinked her red eyes, staring intently at the deer herd. She had not yet figured out which deer was sick and which was elderly.

She frowned and said, “The wolf pack is really amazing to be able to recognize and analyse so many things at once.”

Just as the cow horned girl finished speaking, one Three Tailed Wolf began to accelerate, its sharp eyes fixed on a lone deer.

*Thump thump thump…*

It ran incredibly fast, its gaze locked onto that deer as if it would snap its neck at any moment.

As the first wolf gave chase, several other wolves, upon seeing this, joined in the pursuit.

*Thump thump thump…*

In less than a minute, more and more wolves joined the chase, reaching over a dozen.

Among the wolf pack, there was one that was the largest and the strongest. That must be the alpha wolf. It was also the one leading the attack at the front, though this was because the deer were herd animals.

Seeing their companion being chased, some of the stronger male deer stepped forward to help drive away the wolves that were about to pounce.

The scene was incredibly intense, like two warriors locked in combat.

A wolf and a deer faced off, wolf claws against deer antlers in mutual combat, neither gaining any advantage.

Thanks to the help from its companions, the pursued deer managed to successfully escape.

“What a shame, it got away.” Yan Hua sympathized with the wolf pack.

“Yeah, they were so close to catching it.” Cheng Shi said, punching the nearby tree in frustration.

“Don’t worry. Three Tailed Wolves won’t give up until they catch their prey. Just keep watching. It will get even more exciting.” Sha Hong said with a slight smile.

She knew Three Tailed Wolves better than anyone. With the entire pack mobilized, it would be unthinkable for them not to catch a single prey. Moreover, the alpha wolf showed no signs of giving up, his gaze was still fierce as he prepared for the next attack.

Meanwhile, after their failure, the other wolves in the pack quickly regrouped.

However, they did not appear as composed as the alpha wolf, probably because the food that had nearly been theirs had escaped.

From that failure, they began to grow restless.

Some wolves were baring their teeth, while others appeared discouraged, creating a stark contrast with the alpha wolf.
