Chapter 82 - King of Hyenas
n
n
n
nHalf a month later.
nThe drought grew worse.
n
n
nHowever, the hot sun was merciless, still cruelly roasting the land that had long fallen into dryness.
nDust flew everywhere on the grassland.
nA wolf that had gone out to hunt was lying on the ground, on the verge of death.
nHe was seriously dehydrated and could not stand up anymore.
n
n
nHis wife and children were waiting for him in the cave.
nThis “man” who was loyal to love and family and had dedicated his life to his family and family ultimately fell into this cruel season.
nOn the riverbed, the mud turned into armor and cracked into pieces.
nThe few old crocodiles had already been exposed to the sun and turned into dried corpses, forever buried in their territory.
n
n
nNot far away, in a cave near the river bank, a small crocodile was hiding in the darkness motionless. It opened its eyes and watched everything silently.
nBy the river.
nThe few monkeys waiting for the river to fill had long become white bones.
nThe territory of the cold father’s pride.
nAt a pile of rocks near the bushes, there was a lush patch of short trees with many caves hidden there.
nAt this moment, Callie was biting a wild rabbit with yellow fur as she carefully crawled into a bush full of thorns.
n
n
nHer once bulging stomach had already shriveled.
nWhen she walked to an abandoned cave with the wild rabbit in her mouth, three stupid cubs squeezed each other and ran out.
nThey could already walk and could eat some fresh meat.
nOne male and two female. This was the future of the pride.
nCallie had to take good care of these furry little fellows.
nHowever, food was extremely scarce during the dry season.
nShe had not found any prey for three days.
nIf they were not full, there would be no milk.
n
n
nFortunately, she caught a wild rabbit today.
nBut what about tomorrow?
nThe drought grew worse and the weather became hotter and hotter.
nThe sun was hot and the vegetation was withered. The herbivores that could be seen everywhere suddenly seemed to have disappeared and could not be found anymore.
nSome hungry carnivores were wandering around.
nFor safety reasons, Callie decided to return to the pride with the three little fellows tonight.
nAt least there was a team protecting it and a lion guarding it.
nShe could hunt wholeheartedly.
n“Roar!”
nThe three little fellows started to fight over the wild rabbit.
nFighting was like playing. They did not have the intention of killing each other like some animals did when they were young.
nCallie looked at them lovingly, then raised her head to look at the sun on the grassland.
nThe sun soon set.
n
n
nThe vast grassland was covered by the night.
nA crescent moon hung on the horizon.
nCallie left the cave with the three young cubs and walked towards the pride’s camp.
nThe three young cubs followed behind, still playing around. They were full of energy and did not know fatigue.
nCallie walked for a while, then waited, patient and gentle.
nShe did not enter the dense and dark bushes but walked outside the bushes.
nJust as she was feeling happy and thinking about how to get the three children to greet their dignified father, a hyena suddenly walked out from the bushes beside her!
nIt was a male hyena.
nAlthough it was small, it looked ferocious and drooled from the corner of its mouth. Its green eyes flickered strangely in the night, looking extremely terrifying.
nThe strange thing was that it was different from other hyenas. No noise came from its mouth, and it did not run around. Instead, it stood there and looked at them coldly and quietly.
n“Roar—”
nCallie immediately bared her sharp fangs and roared at it fiercely. At the same time, she observed the surroundings vigilantly.
nThe three young cubs instinctively sensed danger and hurriedly stopped playing. They shivered and hid behind their mother.
nThe male hyena still stood quietly in place, looking at them coldly without moving.
nCallie did not dare to expose her back and children to it. She suddenly roared angrily and pounced on it!
nShe wanted to chase this damn hyena away completely!
nIt was just a small male hyena and there were no other hyenas. She was not afraid of him!
nWhen she pounced forward with a roar, not only did the male hyena not dodge, it suddenly charged at her!
nCallie was stunned for a moment, but she still pounced ferociously!
n“Bang!”
nShe did not bite the male hyena. Instead, she was suddenly knocked to the side by its violent impact.
nBy the time she reacted, the male hyena had already brushed past her and pounced on her children!
n“Roar—”
nCallie was shocked and furious. She hurriedly turned around and chased after him!
nHowever, the male hyena was strangely fast. It instantly rushed in front of the three young cubs and bit the head of one!
nThen, he quickly ran towards the grassland!
nCallie roared angrily, and the strength of her motherly love suddenly erupted as she chased after him crazily!
n“Ow Ow! Ow Ow!”
nThe cries of other hyenas suddenly came from the bushes behind him.
nThe five male hyenas took the opportunity to jump out and charge towards the remaining two young cubs ferociously and excitedly.
nCallie was shocked beyond compare. She hurriedly stopped in her tracks, turned around, and ran back!
nHowever, it was already too late!
nThe two male hyenas bit her remaining two children and broke their necks.
nAs for the other three male hyenas, they bared their fangs and rushed towards her, their eyes filled with cold killing intent!
n“Roar—”
nCallie’s miserable and desperate cries rang out in the dark grassland!
nCarrying endless anger and hatred, she charged towards these despicable and cruel enemies without regard for her own safety and started biting crazily!
nThe male hyena that first appeared walked back with the young cub in its mouth. It stopped near where she was fighting the three male hyenas and started to eat her children in front of her.
nHis name was Baley and he was the leader of the five male hyenas.
nThey were the stray hyenas’ alliance!
nTonight, they were going to occupy the hyena pack that was stationed at the edge of the pride!
nAnd the hyena queen would become their dinner!
nFrom today onwards, the history of hyenas with females as their queens would be completely rewritten!
nHe, Baley, was the king of this land’s hyenas!
nEver since he ate the corpse of the crocodile-like monster the other day, he realized that his strength and speed had become much stronger.
nEven if he encountered a larger female hyena, he could bite it to death!
nThe humiliation of being expelled from the tribe and being bullied by other hyenas would be washed away with blood tonight!
nCallie’s miserable roar traveled very far in the quiet night.
nThe cold father and the other lionesses, who were resting in the camp, suddenly stood up and looked over.
nThey rushed over!
