Swallowed Star: Lord of the Wolf

Chapter 63 Coveting Baboon's Star Level Seven (Please Collect and Read)
Navarra Star.

In the primeval forest east of the Ten Thousand Beasts Plain.

A ten-meter-long leopard with a streamlined and slender body, crouched with saliva dripping from its mouth, lying motionless downwind of a group of bighorn elk.

The black spots all over its body allow the leopard to hide itself well in the jungle humus. Its body is bent as low as possible, and its limbs are as taut as springs, which shows that it is an excellent hunter.

The bighorn elk were eating berries growing under the bushes, and occasionally they would raise their heads to look around. This was not because they had discovered an enemy, but because it was a habit formed out of their survival instinct. This habit allowed them to react more quickly when danger approached.

However, in the eyes of this leopard, the vigilance of the bighorn elk is more like the calm before the storm, foreshadowing the upcoming killing feast.

The leopard's pupils shrank into a thin line, with a cold and cruel light flashing deep in the pupils. Its breathing had almost stopped, with only the slight rise and fall of its chest proving that it was still alive.

Its heartbeat roared in its chest like a war drum, contrasting sharply with the sound of the wind in the deep jungle and the sounds of the elk chewing their food.

Suddenly, the leopard moved.

It moved as fast as lightning, and in almost an instant it crossed a distance of dozens of meters and charged towards the herd of bighorn elk. Surprisingly, its speed was definitely far faster than the speed of sound, but it did not cause a sonic boom.

Just as it was about to pounce on a big-horned elk, a rapid roar came from the bushes not far away!
It was as shocking as a landslide.

The cruelty on the leopard's face froze. It instantly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in the air. It turned its head and saw a terrifying beast tens of meters tall suddenly rushing out from the bushes in the distance. Its body was so huge that it almost covered the sky.

The beast's fur was as soft as the finest silk, carrying a terrifying aura of powerful strength, and its eyes flashed with a faint light, as if they could devour everything.

boom! boom! boom!
Unlike the leopard's silent attack, the giant beast created three consecutive sonic booms.

Therefore, while the leopard was still leaping in the air, the terrifying beast knocked down a row of towering trees with the force of thunder. The trees broke instantly under its impact, and the fallen trees fell in a chain like dominoes, raising a huge cloud of dust.

The bloody mouth suddenly opened, revealing sharp fangs and scarlet tongue.

Looking at the target, it was the leopard that had nowhere to escape in the air.

As the leopard screamed in fear, the beast's huge mouth was like an abyss, ruthlessly biting the leopard in the waist.

The leopard's screams echoed in the jungle, but were soon drowned out by the deafening roar of the beast. The beast shook its head vigorously and threw the leopard to the ground.

The leopard's body was torn into pieces by the impact, and blood and internal organs splattered everywhere.

[Resource +1]

The surrounding elk herds had already been frightened by the sudden change and fled in all directions. Only a few were still standing there, watching the bloody slaughter in horror. With their stupid brains, they really couldn't understand why the leopard, which was a hunter preparing to hunt them one second ago, became the prey of an even more terrifying hunter the next moment.

And that terrifying beast was naturally Xu Yang.

He seemed to be unconcerned about his masterpiece. He glanced at the giant elk lying on the ground, lowered his head, and began to enjoy this sumptuous lunch.

"I hate leopards, but I like to eat leopard meat."

The meal was finished very quickly. Although the leopard was ten meters long, there was not much meat on it. The slender tail was nearly three meters long. It was too thin and covered with hair, making it difficult to handle. Xu Yang simply gave up eating the tail.

In this way, Xu Yang was only half full after eating the leopard meat.

Xu Yang stood up and left, not caring about the mess. After he left, small predators lurking in the dark would naturally come to pick up the leftovers after smelling the blood.

Xu Yang was very leisurely squeezing through the thorn bushes. Now that he was at the seventh level of the star class, he was the undisputed overlord of this primeval forest. Other creatures could only fear him, and there was no possibility for him to avoid other creatures.

It's like walking in your own back garden.

"boom--"

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of breaking wind in the sky.

Through the gaps between the treetops, Xu Yang could see clearly what was flying.

A flying monkey!

It flew directly over the treetops a hundred meters above Xu Yang's head and flew rapidly towards the west.

After the monkey flew away, Xu Yang muttered to himself in amazement, "Why is a star-level monkey flying to the west?"

It has been more than a month since Xu Yang came to this world. Since he has almost always been playing single-player games, he has no idea about the three major forces around him - the King Kong Ant Tribe, the Frost Dragon Tribe, and the Green-Eyed Baboon Tribe.

"Monkeys are generally social animals. This monkey flew here from the east. Doesn't that mean its nest is in the east?" Xu Yang reasoned about this possibility. This primeval forest is very large, and there are quite a few planetary monsters in it, but they are too scattered.

In terms of strength, he could kill a hundred planetary-level monsters in a day without any difficulty, but in reality, because they were too dispersed, Xu Yang often could not gather enough resources to level up in a day. That is to say, on a day when he was unlucky, he could not even catch three planetary-level monsters.

Now, there is probably a monkey nest in the east. Judging from the stellar monkeys that just flew away, this is a large tribe! Since even stellar monkeys exist, there must be a lot of planetary monkeys. And according to common sense, it is impossible that there are no experts left to guard the nest.

Therefore, there must be a lot of planetary monkeys in the monkey nest in the east!

Although Xu Yang does not eat humanoid creatures, those are all [resources]. Compared with [resources], the value of that little bit of meat can be ignored.

……

All the way east.

Xu Yang did not fly in the sky in a swaggering manner. According to his experience in his previous life, monkeys must be very smart creatures. Moreover, compared with other monsters, they have a big advantage: they are highly socialized and good at using tools.

Therefore, Xu Yang was afraid that he would be discovered by the monkeys' sentinels while flying in the sky looking for the monkeys' nest. What if they found that they were outnumbered and broke up into small groups and fled in all directions like birds and beasts? Wouldn't that be a great loss for him?

Xu Yang would rather start with one foot deep and one foot shallow than take the risk.

"Snapped!"

With his claws, he cut off the head of a golden-ringed pit viper that was trying to escape from the rotten leaves, and Xu Yang stuffed the remaining spicy strips directly into his mouth to satisfy his craving. Nowadays, he almost never eats prey below the planetary level, but spicy strips are an exception.

Snake meat is delicate and tender. Xu Yang has eaten dozens of kinds so far and found that each one is extremely delicious. As long as the snake head is cut off, each one is delicious.

Therefore, if he sees one on the road, he will still catch it and try it.
