Chapter 61: Instinct and Human Nature

It's finally getting dark.

Catherine lay down in the bushes, looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally the sky was dark.

She had accidentally fallen asleep last night and had not seen his heroic predator.

Tonight, she will be staring at him with wide eyes and meticulousness, never taking her eyes off him!

The three lionesses went out hunting.

Pregnant Kelly and Maya, sleeping.

Chu Xiaoye climbed up another bread tree, and with his sharp claws, he scooped up the soft and damp wood residue on the thick branches.

He could clearly see the moisture inside.

These wood residues, gently squeezed, there is clear water flowing out.

It seems that there is no need to experiment anymore.

Both of these baobab trees do store plenty of fresh water, enough for the entire lion pack to survive the most difficult dry season.

He refilled the hole with the wood residue he had taken out to prevent the water from evaporating.

The animals and plants that have survived in this grassland have naturally undergone various harsh tests of nature, slowly evolved and changed, until they truly adapted to the bad environment here.

This baobab tree must have started to store water in advance during the rainy season.

The problem of water has been solved.

Chu Xiaoye prepared to go down, and took Little Curly Tail and Meimei to the bushes behind to see the situation.

At this time, in his spare eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure on the hillside not far away!

The sturdy and huge body, the lush mane, and the bright and cold eyes, under the cover of the night, were murderous and quietly coming!

It was the wandering male lion who fled in the evening!

"Whew-"

He immediately roared in the tree and sounded the alarm!

Kelly and Maya, who were lying in the bushes, hurriedly stood up, took a few steps forward, craned their necks, and looked up the hillside.

At this time, the wandering male lion had already begun to run and sprint towards this side!

The fangs are bared and the mane is flying!

In those vicious and cold eyes, there was a cold killing intent and hatred!

When Kelly and Maya saw this, they immediately panicked, roared, and turned around to run away!

However, they hesitated, not knowing whether they were worried about the lion cubs, or thinking that stray male lions generally do not hurt lionesses, so they stopped and hurriedly shouted at the four lion cubs, telling them to run away quickly!

Ral jumped up from the bushes with a whoosh, turned and fled into the bushes behind him, and hurried away.

And Little Curly Tail and Meimei, under Chu Xiaoye's call, climbed directly onto the baobab tree and stood with him.

Male lions are very large and difficult to come up.

Catherine hesitated, not knowing whether to run away like Lahr or climb the baobab tree.

She had always thought that the two big trees belonged to the three of them, and she was not qualified to go up.

Just as she was hesitating, the wandering male lion had already rushed towards her with murderous vigour.

"Whew!"

Chu Xiaoye lowered his head and called out anxiously at her.

This idiot!

It's all this time, what are you still in a daze!

Come on up!

When Catherine heard his call, her heart was immediately overjoyed and excited, and without any hesitation, she immediately rushed quickly under the baobab tree and climbed up with agility!

With her head bowed, she silently walked to another branch, not daring to stand too close to him, but standing behind him, peeking at him with joy in her heart.

She was finally standing in the same tree as him.

Moreover, I was invited by him.

At this time, there was no fear in her heart, and she was still thinking nonsense.

"Whew-"

The wandering male lion roared angrily and pounced directly on the two lionesses, with its open bloody mouth and sharp fangs, with extreme anger and killing intent, without the slightest meaning of pity and pity!

Kelly and Maya were startled, and hurriedly roared, opened their mouths, and resisted head-on!

At this time, it was too late to escape, let alone turn his back on this wandering lion!

As long as he bites his neck and falls to the ground, he will never be able to stand up again!

The two pregnant lioness soon had blood on their faces and were scarred!

Even if they are not pregnant, they are definitely no match for this nearly 200-kilogram male lion!

The size and strength of the male lion, as well as the fighting genes that he possessed from birth, are definitely not comparable to any lioness!

This wandering male lion is obviously murderous, deadly, and merciless!

Kelly and Maya, regretful and frightened, screamed in despair while resisting powerlessly!

The wandering lion slapped Kelly in the face with a sudden paw, knocking her to the ground, and then pounced viciously, ready to bite her throat!

"Whew-"

At this moment, there was a sudden roar from the baobab tree!

The wandering male lion paused, raised his head, and looked at the baobab tree.

On the tree, Chu Xiaoye bared his fangs, with a provocative look in his eyes.

Little Curly Tail and Mimi also immediately let out a roar and looked at him fearlessly!

The wandering male lion roared angrily and immediately recognized the three of them.

In the evening when they fought Leng Father, it was these three hateful little guys who didn't think they could do enough to challenge him, and as a result, they brought out their mother.

That's why he ran away!

He's coming tonight, and he's going to go on a killing spree!

Whether it's a lioness or a lioness cub, he won't let it go!

He's going to make the bastards who don't follow the rules pay the heaviest price all!

"Whew-"

He roared and continued to pounce on the two lionesses!

He needs to deal with the two pregnant lioness first, so that they are stillborn!

Kelly, who was injured, was slapped to the ground with a paw again!

The wandering lion was about to pounce on him, when Maya suddenly pounced on him from behind, roaring and biting!

The wandering lion immediately turned back to her!

Kelly hurriedly took advantage of this opportunity to get up from the ground, and without hesitation, turned and fled into the bushes behind her, leaving behind her sister, who had been bitten by the lion in order to save her.

She is more than two months pregnant, her belly is bulging, and in a hundred days, she will give birth.

She has lost two children and doesn't want to lose any more.

And, she wanted to live.

Kelly fled.

Maya's situation suddenly became even more dangerous.

The attack of the wandering male lion was like a raging storm, so that she could not resist it at all, let alone escape!

Seeing that she was about to fall.

"Huh!"

Chu Xiaoye suddenly jumped down from the tree and rushed towards the wandering male lion!

He was afraid.

Not afraid in the trees, certainly on the ground.

He wasn't even a year old, he wasn't as big as a lioness, so how could he compete with this strong behemoth?

He had no experience in fighting male lions.

Moreover, in his bones, it is the blood of a lion cub that flows in his bones, and he is instinctively afraid of adult male lions.

It's like Ral, who doesn't hesitate to run away.

It is true that he has been trained and is now very fast, powerful, and has sharp claws and teeth, but that is relative to hyenas and other prey.

The competition between animals mainly depends on the strength of the body size and the bite force.

In the face of absolute strength, any fancy skill may only increase the chance of survival, but it cannot play a big role in face-to-face combat.

Like a ferocious and terrible crocodile, it makes other animals frightened, and in the face of a hippopotamus that is larger and has a more amazing bite force, it has to obediently surrender.

With his current size and bite force, he will definitely not be able to defeat this male lion in the prime of life.

His power is not strong enough.

He didn't want to die.

So he kept standing on the tree, hesitating.

The instinct of the animal makes him think of himself first.

For example, Kelly who escaped.

But when he heard Maya's desperate screams and frightened eyes, and when he thought of her daughter Gigi dying bloodily in front of him, he finally overcame his instinctive fear and rushed down from the tree!

He leaped high, like a bolt of lightning, and fell from the tree, pounced on the wandering lion who was biting Maya!

It looks so unhesitating!

The bright moonlight fell and shone on his fierce and hideous face.

In those amber eyes, there was a charming brilliance.

Catherine stood on the tree, looking at him stupidly.
