Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Biologist Frans.
Amid an abundance of food,
the life of the wolf pack began to seem very leisurely.
Currently, Su Lin's wolf pack
had gradually stabilized its dominion in this region.
...
In the blink of an eye, another ten days had passed.
Among the wolf pack, Xiao Hui had not yet broken through to Level 5,
but the Little Lone Wolf was the first to break through to Level 4.
Species/Race: Arctic Wolf (Variant Species).
Level: Level 4.
Qi-Blood: 523.
Endurance: 52.
Strength: 51.
Defense: 49.
Speed: 53.
The Little Lone Wolf's strength
now
was no less than that of a normal Level 5 Arctic Wolf,
and when it came to true combat power,
the Little Lone Wolf was probably far above a Level 5 Arctic Wolf.
Even Xiao Hui
was almost no match for the Little Lone Wolf anymore.
The Little Lone Wolf's strength now truly matched its status as the Beta Wolf in the pack.
During this period,
Su Lin had also taken another turn on the ice layer.
Currently, there were many more creatures living on the ice layer than under the eternal night.
Using his speed, he hunted a sea lion.
These days, feeding on sea lions
had also provided Su Lin with over a hundred more Evolution Points.
He had amassed more than five hundred Evolution Points,
moving one step closer to Level 8.
"Ao!"
Su Lin let out a low howl from within the cave and stretched lazily,
looking out at the snow-covered Arctic Tundra outside,
he began to summon Xiao Hui to go hunting.
At present, the territory of the wolf pack was patrolled by two wolfesses,
and occasionally inspected by the Little Lone Wolf,
which was quite comfortable.
Some new species had also migrated to the territory,
including a moose herd of seven or eight and a small reindeer group of only five members.
Su Lin had already fed on these prey,
and their Evolution Points had long been reduced to the lower limit of 0.1.
Therefore, he had no desire to hunt them.
After coming out,
Su Lin took Xiao Hui to the ice layer again.
The ice layer
covered the largest area of the Arctic.
It was rich in natural resources, with various species to be found.
There, he could find the prey he wanted to hunt.
Su Lin and Xiao Hui were very fast,
and in no time,
they arrived at the ice layer.
The aurora over the ice had disappeared.
Without the magnificent aurora,
but with sunlight shining down,
the species on the ice layer began to thrive as well.
Seals, sea lions, walruses, Arctic ducks, and some flying birds
made the ice layer a scene of teeming life.
However, these prey were not easy to hunt, as they would dive into the water at the first sign of danger.
The last time he hunted a sea lion, there was a stroke of luck involved.
This time Su Lin's target was a small walrus.
This little walrus was only about two meters in size,
but was very plump,
weighing in at about eight or nine hundred pounds.
The walrus is the sea's elephant,
massive in size, with two long fanged teeth.
It's one of the largest animals in the sea, other than whales,
but walruses are heavy, with poor eyesight,
Once out of water, they would become quite cumbersome and lacked means of attack.
Therefore, the walrus was the first hunting target chosen by Su Lin.
The Qi-Blood and Vitality of an adult walrus were too substantial,
having thick skin, fat, and flesh,
Even with Su Lin's current killing power, coupled with the activated Hunting Talent, it would be difficult to inflict substantial damage on a walrus in a short amount of time.
Hence, he chose a young walrus.
This young walrus had only Level 8 attributes.
Race: Walrus.
Level: 8.
Qi-Blood: 1523.
Endurance: 73.
Strength: 69.
Defense: 63.
Speed: 21.
Upon glancing at the young walrus's attribute values,
aside from the significant amount of Qi-Blood,
the rest of its values weren't even up to the average.
This caused Su Lin's pale blue wolf eyes to reveal a hint of a hunter's fierce gleam.
The young walrus resting on the ice floe clumsily moved its dark red skin,
blissfully enjoying the soft sunlight, utterly unaware of the impending danger.
....
However, it was around this time,
in the city of Norilsk in Russia,
within a higher educational institution,
the pure and stunning Tiffany was presenting her academic paper on stage.
The topic of this academic presentation was "The Wondrous Creatures of the Arctic Tundra."
Due to its in-depth records, coupled with various recorded footage, the paper had garnered widespread readership within the academy.
It also received much praise from many instructors in the school,
and today, Tiffany was invited to speak and present in front of the entire school.
And the pure and pretty Divina was sitting in the audience,
occasionally leading the applause to cheer on her friend Tiffany.
At that moment,
amidst the noisy applause from the audience,
suddenly, a figure with a slender build and refined demeanor approached her.
It was Frans, a fellow alumnus of the school,
"Hello, Miss Divina, do you have a moment to talk?"
Frans came to Divina's side and said with a friendly face.
His handsome face featured a pair of golden-brown eyes, which were very bright and spirited.
Combined with his strong charisma,
it made Frans quite popular with the opposite sex at the academy.
"Looking for me?"
This made Divina curious.
She was aware of the school celebrity, Frans.
Frans was also a scholar in biological research at the academy,
but his focus on genetic research was often considered by many in the field to be groundless.
However, his father was a director of a famous biotech company, so saying that his family was extremely wealthy would not be an exaggeration.
Divina and Frans had never interacted before,
which made her curious about the reason for his approach.
"Yes, Miss Divina, I have a matter I'd like to inquire about," Frans said with his ever-friendly smile.
"All right," Divina didn't refuse.
She followed Frans out of the hall into the quiet corridors of the academy.
At that time,
Frans smiled and said, "Miss Divina, I heard that recently you and Miss Tiffany went to the Arctic ice sheets to film? You recorded the living tracks of many creatures."
The pretty and lovely Divina blinked her beautiful large eyes and said, "Yes, what about it? Are you interested in the creatures of the Arctic ice sheets as well?"
Frans nodded with a smile, "Indeed, so I sincerely invite you and Miss Tiffany to join us for another trip to the Arctic to film. Would I have that honor?
Of course, I will be covering all the expenses for this trip."
Hearing Frans speak this way, Divina felt tempted.
But she had heard
that recently a lynx in Siberia had injured several people
and now had fled to the Arctic.
So even though she was tempted,
she shook her head and said, "No, we won't go. I've heard it's not very safe in the Arctic ice sheets right now."
This made Frans sigh in disappointment,
but he still took out a thick stack of banknotes sealed in an envelope from his briefcase and said, "Well then, Miss Divina, that's really a pity,
but here is three hundred thousand rubles, as I'd like to purchase some items from you and Miss Tiffany."
