Throughout the great wars between humans and werewolves, the gray werewolves suffered the most casualties. Although the other four werewolf clans were fewer in number, they had many strong individuals who generally served as high-ranking officers in the werewolf army.
Decades ago, the human race had already advanced about 500 miles into the werewolf territory. According to records, these surrounding areas were mainly inhabited by gray wolf tribes, and werewolf powerhouses from the other four races would only appear during large-scale battles.
For example, in the great battle two and a half months ago, many mid-level and high-level experts from the four werewolf clans participated in the battle. However, the two second-level werewolf lords who were killed were from the Snow Wolf Clan and the Red Wolf Clan, respectively.
Furthermore, the human race killed more than ten third-rank wolf clan innate grandmasters, most of whom were from the four races. There were only two from the gray wolf clan. However, 99% of the werewolves killed by the middle and lower third-rank werewolves were from the gray wolf clan.
"In addition to taking turns on guard duty, we also take turns patrolling the surrounding area within a radius of 30 miles, and even scouting the werewolf activity within a 50-mile radius ahead, to prevent the werewolves from launching large-scale sneak attacks."
"It just so happens that it's our class's turn to go out tomorrow. You should get a good rest tonight, and we'll explain all the precautions to you on the way. I'm sure you'll soon become an excellent soldier," Liu Song said to Chen Feng.
"Please rest assured, squad leader, I will study diligently and become a qualified soldier as soon as possible. In the name of humanity, I will stain the Sky Wolf with blood. With the will of humanity, I will forever guard the Sky Wolf." Chen Feng immediately stood up and said.
"In the name of humanity, let blood stain the Sky Wolf. With the will of humanity, let the Sky Wolf be forever suppressed!" they shouted in unison.
In the evening, apart from the soldiers on duty, everyone else had to do drills, mainly to train their physical strength and formation, as well as their teamwork and coordination. Although Chen Feng could have opted out, he volunteered to participate.
After two hours of training, he was already very familiar with his eighteen comrades in the class. Everyone called him Little Crazy, and he remembered everyone's nicknames, such as Squirrel, Little Fish, Speedy Legs, Ball of Yarn, Egg, Stone, Bullet, Broom, Autumn Wind, Rainstorm, Steel Ball, and so on.
Anyway, they're all nicknames, and there are all sorts of strange and unusual names. Some nicknames have a character that sounds the same as the person's name, some are related to the person's image, and some are just nicknames that the person makes up.
Nothing happened that night, and Chen Feng slept very soundly. However, he quietly extended his mental energy to the front of the door, and he would wake up immediately if there was any unusual noise. This was the vigilance of a martial artist.
The next morning, after breakfast, Liu Song led a squad of eighteen team members away from a forward outpost and headed to explore the direction in which the werewolves had retreated the day before. Their initial mission was to explore about thirty miles, and their highest-level mission was to explore about fifty miles.
"Little madman, look closely. When these werewolves retreat, they usually leave deep footprints because their strength is not damaged, so they are not afraid of us chasing after them."
However, they suffered a major defeat yesterday, which may have some impact on the entire tribe. Therefore, they were very careful when they retreated, using tree branches to sweep away the traces they left behind.
However, we can still determine the direction they went by looking at the fallen grass and the various stones and soil around them, so we will continue to track them in that direction today.” Liu Song began to impart his experience in field tracking to Chen Feng.
"Why don't the squirrels walk on the ground?" At this moment, Chen Feng noticed that his comrades in the class had already started to track them, but they were all leaping up trees or stepping on some large rocks along the way.
"Little Crazy, this is to prevent the werewolves from leaving our tracks. The werewolves also send out scouts to monitor us around our forward outposts. Once they spot our squads, they'll notify the werewolves to ambush us," said the vice class monitor, Little Fish, from the side.
"So, we usually use lightness skills or movement techniques to travel on things that don't leave traces, so that even if a werewolf passes by, they won't find our tracks." Chen Feng suddenly realized.
He then followed behind the two, using the Flash Star Escape technique to keep up with them at a leisurely pace. Although learning advanced martial arts techniques would allow him to absorb experience from lower-level techniques, all the lower-level techniques he had learned could be used at any time.
However, Chen Feng began to secretly conduct new experiments, because the Fenglang Sword Technique contained a special tracking method that could use the Fenglang Sword Qi to track the scent of werewolves within a radius of 500 meters.
This was something Chen Feng learned when he inherited the Fenglang Sword Technique, but he hadn't had the chance to test it before. Today, however, he happened to be traveling with everyone, and he secretly released the sword energy of the Fenglang Sword Technique, and sure enough, he detected a strong werewolf scent.
The group explored for about thirty miles when the werewolf's tracks suddenly disappeared. A river appeared ahead, and although it was only two or three meters wide, the water could erase any traces.
"Squirrel, we haven't found any trace of werewolves along the riverbanks. I'm afraid they've crossed the river and left from the other side?" At this moment, the deputy squad leader, Speedy, who had led some people to scout ahead, returned and reported.
"I'll take some men to check the other side," said Xiaoyuer, the deputy squad leader. He immediately led three or four martial artists across the river and began searching the other side.
At this point, Chen Feng made a discovery by tracking the werewolf scent. There was only a very faint werewolf scent on the other side of the river, but a very strong werewolf scent was present downstream.
After thinking about it, he understood. The main force of the werewolves must have gone downstream by river, but they left a few decoys on the other side to deliberately leave some traces and distract the pursuers.
"Squirrel, we've found something over here! There are signs of werewolves retreating!" Sure enough, Little Fish waved and called out from the other side. Everyone crossed the river and soon discovered some faint traces of movement.
"Hahaha, these beasts, they thought they were being very discreet, but we still managed to find them."
"That's right. These werewolves are as stupid as pigs. Apart from their brute strength, they are completely useless. It would be a piece of cake for them to outwit and outmaneuver us humans."
"Squad leader, we've already tracked for thirty miles. If we continue, we might encounter more werewolf spies. Should we continue tracking?"
The crowd was excited and eager to try, since more than 150 warriors of the werewolf tribe had died yesterday, and it was estimated that less than 300 warriors remained. If they encountered their scouts, they could kill them directly.
"Now that we've got our hands on them, we should naturally follow up and see what's going on. We wonder what resources and minerals are in this Gray Wolf tribe. If we can figure that out before we go back, we'll have made a great contribution," Liu Song said with a smile.
