Courage plucked at a small blue wildflower, a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Aww!" Brother, there are flowers!
Except for his childhood, Courage has rarely been interested in wildflowers, but now, it has been a long time since it has seen the beauty of nature, and it has been even longer since it has seen such tender flowers.
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Qian immediately ran over. Looking at the tiny flower, no bigger than a fingertip, the surprise in his eyes quickly turned into joy.
The flowering plant is only about ten centimeters tall and has no branches or leaves, only slender, straight branches, with a soft little flower at the top of each branch. It looks very fragile no matter how you look at it.
But Lin Qian knew that this plant was very resilient.
Under the scrutiny of its spiritual sense, the characteristics of ordinary plants could not be hidden from it. This plant was originally an ordinary wildflower, but after evolution, it developed the characteristic of being cold-resistant. Its flowers not only spread pollen, but also absorb and store large amounts of water at night.
When the sun comes out, the flower buds close, the branches droop, and they hide under the withered vegetation. The moisture from the night is enough to sustain them through the entire day.
This unexpected little flower was not the only case, but it was the first glimmer of light that Lin Qian and Yongqi saw.
"Awooo?" Will it survive?
With its claws pawing at the little flower, Courage was somewhat worried; it even considered whether to dig the flower up and take it away.
In today's environment, a flower is very precious, and it wants to enjoy it for a while longer.
"Aww." Don't worry, it will live a good life.
Lin Qian replied with a smile, interrupting Yongqi's impulsive plan.
"Ouch..." Okay...
The tiger cub looked at the little flower again with some regret, fiddled with it a couple of times, and then turned and left with courage. A tiger will not linger if it cannot dig up a flower.
Lin Qian shook his head helplessly, only then realizing that his younger brother might have some unreliable ideas.
The two brothers ran one after the other through the night and soon left the forest. The little flower still stood tall in the night, swaying slightly in the cold wind.

Arctic.
The aurora borealis shimmered in the night sky; the polar night had arrived.
Amidst the howling wind and snow, as night deepened, the sound of footsteps echoed continuously in this silent, pure white world.
Amidst the swirling snowflakes, a solitary figure, the same color as the snow, slowly emerged, its dark blue wolf eyes flashing with a cold light as the wind swept by.
The enormous snow wolf, covered in snow and wind, moved with steady and light steps, exhaling wisps of white breath from its mouth and nose, its eyes filled with a chilling and awe-inspiring arrogance.
It is the king of snow wolves, the leader of the dream wolves.
The pack of snow wolves followed their alpha wolf, making their way along the snow-covered mountains. The thick, perpetually snow-covered Arctic landscape left a long trail of footprints under the wolf pack's hooves, which were constantly trampled and disturbed by the claws of the wolves that followed.
they.
They are a pack of snow wolves who have lived among snowflakes for generations, their lives intertwined with wind, snow, and ice.
A typical snow wolf is nearly 2 meters long and weighs 70 kilograms, while these evolved snow wolves are at least twice as big and heavy.
Their fur is snow-white all over, their limbs are increasingly agile, and their large size does not affect their speed, but even allows them to move for longer periods of time.
(The snow wolf, scientifically known as *Is lupusniger*, is a subspecies of gray wolf belonging to the genus *Canis* in the family Canidae of the order Carnivora. Its fur is mostly white, and it measures nearly 2 meters in length and weighs 70 kilograms. It has a large head and a slender, graceful body. Snow wolves hunt at night, preying on hares, reindeer, and other prey, and can travel up to 200 kilometers at a time.)
Snow wolves usually hunt at night, but when winter comes and food is scarce, snow wolf packs will keep searching for prey and can travel up to 200 kilometers at a time.
Large groups are formed only in winter; in summer, most people live alone or in small clans.
In winter, small animals hibernate, so wolves hunt larger animals such as deer more often. Since hunting large animals requires group cooperation, wolves form larger packs in winter.
But now, this pack of snow wolves is clearly not a "larger group" to describe.
A pack of nearly a thousand snow wolves, like a surging wave of snow from an avalanche, moved swiftly and rapidly toward the distant glacier under the aurora borealis.
Originally, with global warming and rising temperatures, the glacier area in the Arctic and Antarctic was shrinking rapidly, and the environment suitable for snow wolves to live in was degrading day by day. The number of snow wolves has gradually decreased to about a few thousand.
This is a fatal blow and crisis for the snow wolf pack. They may never be able to roam the snow-capped mountains again and enjoy all the wonders and scenery of the world.
However, nature's surprises and unexpected events are always unpredictable. From major earthquakes and snowstorms to the current drought, their populations have miraculously grown stronger.
While much of the land experiences extreme weather with scorching sun and frigid nights, the Arctic is growing increasingly cold, and glaciers that had melted are slowly but surely recovering at a visible rate within just a few months.
Meanwhile, the wolf pack had long since developed a spirit beast, with new alpha wolves constantly being born and replaced.
Until a month ago, the snow wolf with the dark blue eyes became the new leader, and the title of Wolf King was bestowed upon it.
At the summons of the new wolf king, the wolf pack, which should have been scattered, was gathered together. The spirit beasts in the pack could not resist the new king's orders, and the ordinary snow wolves could only obey, despite their confusion.
With a howl, the wolf pack stopped and began to rest.
The silence was broken as they stopped walking, and many snow wolves among the white wolf pack asked questions.
