Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

Time flew by like an arrow,

and before long, three days had passed.

"Awooo!"

A resounding wolf howl echoed in the cold Arctic sky.

Xiao Hui had officially advanced to Level 5,

and was now excitedly howling away.

Species: Arctic Wolf (Variant Species).

Level: 5.

Qi-Blood: 635.

Endurance: 63.

Strength: 61.

Defense: 60.

Speed: 62.

Xiao Hui's current strength was already no less than that of a Level 6 Arctic wolf.

Coupled with its powerful impact resistance,

even the Wolf Father from before probably couldn't handle Xiao Hui now.

If Xiao Hui was fierce enough,

it could now hunt some small prey or juvenile animals on its own.

Outside the cave,

Xiao Hui excitedly howled for a while,

before returning to the den.

Xiao Hui's breakthrough to Level 5 greatly augmented the wolf pack's strength.

In future hunts of large prey groups,

splitting the battlefield or creating diversions would be much easier.

As for Su Lin,

over these three days, he too had consumed thirty to forty pounds of walrus meat.

It provided him with another two hundred or so Evolution Points,

bringing his total to around a thousand Evolution Points,

and he was getting closer and closer to advancing to Level 8.

Su Lin let out a low howl,

and once more took Xiao Hui out hunting.

The newly advanced Xiao Hui was very excited,

and upon encountering the group of over twenty reindeer in their territory, it was eager to try its luck.

As a result,

after strutting around arrogantly for a while, the reindeer only watched it warily.

They didn't take Xiao Hui seriously, nor did they scatter in panic.

This caused Xiao Hui to rush furiously towards the reindeer group,

but soon,

it was fiercely kicked several times by a few adult stags.

If Xiao Hui hadn't fled quickly, those sharp antlers would have given it a painful lesson.

"Awooo! Awooo!"

Xiao Hui yelped miserably as it ran back to its leader's side.

Su Lin gave that scene only a casual glance before looking away.

Xiao Hui's strength was now roughly equivalent to the Wolf Father's from before.

Struggling even to hunt a lone adult reindeer meant challenging a whole reindeer group was out of the question.

Su Lin ignored its pathetic cries,

and once again headed to the ice fields.

Most of the species he hadn't eaten yet could be found there.

In fact, Su Lin even considered,

using a Strengthening Serum to enhance his lungs might be a good option,

so he could go underwater to catch various fish from the North Arctic Ocean.

That would also speed up his own evolution process.

However,

for now, these were just delightful musings.

Upon arriving at the ice fields,

Su Lin discovered that there were many more species than a few days ago.

Of these, the slower walruses and sea lions had already been his prey.

Su Lin looked out over the vast ice fields,

where seals and Arctic ducks were resting by the broken ice holes,

and they were all very vigilant of him.

Far from the carelessness and lack of defenses of the walrus groups.

This made Su Lin give up on the idea of hunting these species.

He let out a low howl to signal Xiao Hui to stay on guard,

then approached an ice hole, his pale blue wolf eyes observing the fish swimming there,

wondering if with the arrival of the warm season, the North Arctic Ocean might have other varieties of fish.

So far, Su Lin had only eaten Arctic salmon and Northern dogfish,

both of which were very delicious.

Having eaten walrus meat for several days, he was getting a bit tired of it.

Even if he couldn't catch new varieties of fish to gain Evolution Points,

catching some Northern salmon would still improve his diet.

It had been a long time since he had tasted the fresh, tender, smooth, and juicy flesh of fish.

The sound of water moving echoed,

an Arctic Salmon swam by the opening in the ice,

but it was far from the ice hole,

and Su Lin didn't make a move.

Because he hadn't caught some Traveling Rats as bait,

the difficulty of catching fish this time skyrocketed.

Su Lin watched intently,

staring for a good fifteen minutes, but not a single fish swam to the ice hole.

This made Su Lin consider diving into the sea to fish inside.

After the development of his lungs with the Potential Potion, he could hold his breath for five or six minutes.

But in the end, he didn't take the risk.

After all, the water was an unfamiliar environment,

and Su Lin's strength would only be able to show two or three tenths of its potential in there.

His speed would also be greatly limited.

So it was better to stay on the safe side.

Su Lin stood by the ice hole for more than half an hour this time,

when finally a very small fish swam close to the ice hole.

Species: White Fish.

Level: Level 1.

Qi-Blood: 105.

Endurance: 13.

Strength: 3.

Defense: 8.

Speed: 16.

This was a White Fish, only about twenty centimeters long.

Though small, it still made Su Lin's eyes light up.

When the White Fish was only thirty or forty centimeters from the ice hole,

Su Lin made his move.

His Claw Spikes, hidden in his fur, fully shot out, flashing a chilling cold light under the gentle sunlight.

Whoosh!

The sound of slicing through the water!

Su Lin's speed and strength had improved greatly since before.

Therefore, this time,

with a swift, precise, and ruthless move, the sharp Wolf Claw pierced through the White Fish and then quickly scooped it onto the shore!

As for this White Fish,

Su Lin planned to use it as fresh blood bait to start fishing for the rest of the fish.

Rip!

He slit open the still struggling little White Fish,

but Su Lin only took out its innards and gills with his Talon, throwing them into the water.

After all, Su Lin had not yet tried the flesh of the little White Fish.

Its flesh could also provide some Evolution Points for himself.

While waiting for the new fish to bite on the other side,

Su Lin used an Evolution Potion and began to eat the White Fish.

Evolution Potion,

Su Lin still had nearly twenty vials,

so he wasn't being too frugal with them.

He planned to use an Evolution Potion before eating any new prey,

to maximize the increase in Evolution Points.

"Ding! Host has consumed White Fish, obtaining 6 Evolution Points."

The Evolution Points given by the White Fish weren't high, only 6 points even after a threefold increase.

But it was better than nothing,

and Su Lin began to eat the rest of the fish flesh.

The White Fish was small, weighing only three or four pounds.

But its taste was very delicious,

the meat was white and tender, savory without being fishy.

It was indeed highly palatable fish flesh.

Meanwhile, the acquisition of Evolution Points continued to be prompted.

"Ding! Host has consumed White Fish, obtaining 5.5 Evolution Points."

"Ding! Host has consumed White Fish, obtaining 5 Evolution Points."

"Ding! Host has consumed White Fish, obtaining 4.5 Evolution Points."

....

After eating a White Fish in just a few bites, he had gained over thirty Evolution Points.

Then,

looking at the ice hole,

there were already two or three Arctic Salmon attracted to the spot.

Indeed,

even with the arrival of the warmer season,

the blood scent had attracted these fish known for their ferocious feeding habits.

But faced with these fish,

Su Lin didn't plan to let them go, his sharp Wolf Claw once again shot forth.
