Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 530: Chapter 521: The Great Chief 39

After drinking the meat soup, everyone turned and ran towards the grassland. This is the same place that Yan Shuangshuang and the members of the tribe passed by when they were collecting Bright Light Seeds.

There are quite a few hyena packs on the grassland. The Lanshan Tribe has already identified which hyena pack attacked them, especially since there is a fierce beast hyena among them. It is the biggest target and easy to find. This time, they can strike directly at the heart.

This time, the Witch couple from the Lanshan Tribe, Zhi and Yun, will come along. The Witch is like a healer in a game.

The Witch often finds it hard to deal with illnesses and physical weakness, but for injuries caused by external forces, as long as the person is not dead on the spot, the Witch can keep them alive until the battle is over and heal them.

If it weren’t for Zhi and Yun, the two Witches from the Lanshan Tribe, the two previous attacks by the hyena pack led by the fierce beast wouldn’t have resulted in only a few deaths.

This time, to prevent excessive casualties, the Witches Zhi and Yun must accompany them. Although the Witch is powerful, they use witch power for attacks, and at times like these, witch power must be reserved for saving lives, not wasted on fighting. Hence, there needs to be dedicated people to protect the Witch during battle.

Yan Shuangshuang, along with her uncle Jian, her newly-met and curious uncle Shen, and several members of the Hunting Team, were assigned to protect the Witches.

This job is not easy because the Witch needs to follow behind the warriors in battle and treat them when they are injured, and during this process, the Witch cannot be disturbed. Therefore, those protecting the Witch must ensure that no hyena breaks through their defense zone to harm the Witch.

Following the guide from the Lanshan Tribe, they headed straight for the hyena pack’s lair. On Earth, grasslands rarely have hills, but in this place, there are many small protruding hills of various sizes. These are solitary hills, but in summer, their bases are often concealed by tall grass, making them very hidden.

On today’s snow-covered grassland, it is hard to distinguish directions in the endless white, but the guiding warrior from the Lanshan Tribe was unaffected and led everyone directly to the hyena pack’s den.

It was a very hidden nest at the foot of a hill. The hyena’s burrow was dug downward, with dry grass growing above its entrance, covered in snow. The hyena’s den was dug beneath the grass and snow.

These hyenas are very clever. They dug a tunnel under the snow, and the accumulated snow above became solid over time. The tunnel they created was about ten meters long, making it hard to find unless examined closely.

The hyena’s burrow had several exits, and there were hyenas on guard at each. Such secrecy and vigilance demonstrate how a hyena pack led by a fierce beast should not be underestimated, having a more discreet den compared to other hyena packs.

To prevent the hyena pack from escaping, everyone split up as they arrived, trying to ensure that no hyena would get away.

The lookout hyenas were very alert, but the approaching people were all experienced hunters, so they managed to get close without the sentinel hyenas detecting them. Then, they successfully took down the guard hyenas before they could sound an alarm!

The Power Tribe members used Fire Sticks to light dry grass and stuffed it into the den’s entrances, and soon, thick smoke began to billow out. Not long after, hyenas started rushing out from inside.

The group stationed themselves at the entrances of the hyena den, killing each hyena that emerged. After taking down about a dozen, a high-pitched howl erupted from inside, akin to a wolf’s howl!

Accompanied by this high-pitched howl, the entrance that Mang Mountain and his men were guarding suddenly exploded with a loud noise, enlarging an entrance that previously could only accommodate a single hyena.

Following this, a swarm of hyenas surged out in chaos from the widened entrance, attacking everyone wildly with red, furious eyes as if meeting a mortal enemy.

Alongside the hyena pack emerged a gigantic hyena, standing about two meters tall and four to five meters long. This was the mutant fierce beast within the hyena pack.

As soon as the fierce beast hyena appeared, Ben, Mang Mountain, Tie, Jian, and Shen, the strongest warriors from both tribes, took the initiative to intercept the fierce beast, preventing it from attacking the ordinary Hunting Team members, as it would be entirely overpowering them.

With Ben, Mang Mountain, Tie, Jian, and Shen dealing with the fierce beast hyena, the others could concentrate on handling the remaining hyenas. The pack was enormous due to the presence of the fierce beast, estimated at over two hundred and nearly three hundred hyenas.

Fortunately, the hyenas didn’t flee but instead rushed to bite the people, for if they all tried to escape, capturing them all would be a real challenge for those who came.

Yan Shuangshuang slashed down a hyena that attempted to sneak attack the Witch, catching her breath without bothering to wipe the blood sprayed on her face, then wielded her two Scale Armor Knives to continue attacking the encroaching hyenas.

That fierce beast hyena was indeed challenging to deal with; it was unclear how it evolved to be so large, powerful, and surprisingly agile. Even surrounded by several men, they couldn’t subdue it right away.

As everyone was focused on attacking the hyenas, an unnoticed small hyena had quietly approached. The creature was round and fluffy, looking irresistibly cute.

But the behavior of this little creature was far from adorable—it crept toward Yun, who was treating the nearly severed arm of a warrior, undetected due to its small size.

The group’s lack of attention allowed the small hyena to approach Yun, who was fully focused on healing and hadn’t prepared for the attack. The small hyena bared its tiny teeth and suddenly leaped towards Yun with a fierce glare!

The small hyena moved so quickly that it left an afterimage, far beyond the speed a normal hyena pup should possess, indicating that this little hyena was already a fierce beast, thus having such attack power!

Although the opponent was small, with the augmentation of beast combat power, if this attack landed, it could take Yun’s life, while Yun was busy treating the person and hadn’t noticed the incoming attack!

Luckily, Yan Shuangshuang, who was about to take a brief rest after prolonged fighting, turned her head just in time to see the small hyena attacking Yun during a brief respite under the cover of nearby allies.
