Chapter 207 Repayment
On a chilly evening, as dusk settled, the patrol team marched out of the valley with their usual neat and firm steps to begin their daily patrol mission.
However, when they arrived at the mouth of their own valley, the scene before them took everyone by surprise.
Two prey, frozen to death, lay on the ground at the entrance.
It's important to know that finding prey is already extremely difficult in this freezing season.
Every prey is incredibly precious to the surviving beastmen. Who would so easily abandon their hard-won prey here?
The group exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with doubt and unease.
Yong took the lead and carefully examined the wounds on the prey.
He soon discovered that all the wounds were concentrated on his throat, and were clearly caused by a powerful bite that pierced through it.
Clearly, this was a precise and deadly attack.
Ye, who was standing nearby, also came over to observe the situation and frowned as he said to Yong, "Yong, what's going on? These antlered deer aren't easy to hunt. They usually live on the other side of the grassland. How did they suddenly end up here?"
Yong did not answer Ye's question immediately, but stood up and slowly walked around.
His sharp eyes scanned the surrounding ground, not missing a single clue.
Suddenly, he spotted a series of clearly visible footprints not far away.
As he watched the trail of footprints stretch into the distance, Yong gradually began to have some ideas, but he still needed to see the specifics.
After a moment of contemplation, Yong turned to the beastmen and gave them his orders: "Alright, Ye, you take one person and take these two antlered deer back to the cave. The rest of you continue patrolling as planned, stay alert, and see if you can find any more clues related to this matter."
Upon receiving the order, Ye acted swiftly, selecting a strong and capable team member to lift the antler deer together and walk quickly towards the cave.
The remaining patrol members, led by Yong, continued their patrol along the established route, looking for any other clues.
And so it went for five days in a row. Every evening, two fresh prey would quietly appear at the entrance of the valley.
However, the types of prey were not always the same; sometimes it was two plump hares, sometimes a strong moo-moo beast, or other different wild animals.
This phenomenon undoubtedly indicates that the mysterious hunter was constantly changing hunting locations to ensure a continuous supply of abundant food for them.
Over the past few days, the patrol team members have gradually come to understand the situation.
In their spare time, they often joked with each other, "Back in the day, the tribe often faced food shortages during this season. If we could have caught two animals like this every day, it would have been a real lifesaver!"
Another team member chimed in, "That's right, especially in this freezing weather, successfully capturing prey is no easy feat. Anyone with such skill must be an exceptionally skilled orc!"
Some people couldn't help but speculate curiously: "Judging from his appearance, he must be a third-tier orc, right? I wonder how astonishing his strength will become after he advances to the fourth tier!"
Immediately, the crowd launched into a heated discussion about the snow wolf beastman, their words filled with admiration and praise.
After several days of observation and speculation, everyone is well aware that the continuous stream of prey is from the hands of that mysterious snow wolf beastman.
