Jacob continued to follow the galloping horses and the dark wolves.
He was waiting for the wolf king to show itself and then a chance to ambush it. He didn't care about those three lives anymore since they bought it upon themselves.
Furthermore, he already got what he wanted, and he didn't want someone like Gus traveling with him at all, even though he was the same.
"Scatter quickly or we won't survive!"
Gus's expressions were ashen when he saw those wolves didn't give up on them, and the wolf king was controlling the wolf pack to hunt them. He knew killing another won't work this time, so he chose another option which was to escape alone by using the other two, even his sister!
Kiana madly shouted hysterically at this moment, "No, I don't want to die, and I don't know the way, I'll die if I go alone!"
Jennifer, on the other hand, didn't lose control of her emotions and quickly agreed with Gus's suggestion with a subtle look in her eyes, "Fine, let Kiana go with you, I'll go on the other side, this way wolves will be divided!"
Gus didn't have time to think about anything else and shouted, "Go!"
Jennifer didn't delay, either, and she meticulously controlled the horse's reins and turned in the other direction.
The pack of dark wolves also separated into two groups and chase after both of them.
Jacob's eyes shone with a cold light, watching this sudden turn of events. 'That woman seemed to guess why they're being tracked so easily… hah!'
Jacob completely ignored Jennifer and continue to follow Gus and Kiana because most wolves were after them.
Gus also noticed the wolves seemed to double than before, and his expression turned extremely grim. He looked at crying Kiana with killing intent.
However, before he could use her like Arian, he heard powerful footsteps in front, and thereafter; he saw a four-meter silhouette lunging toward him from the front with a huge maw filled with sharp teeth.
Before he could react, the maw completely engulfed his face, and it closed instantly, and he didn't get the chance to utter a single word before his head was severed from his torso.
The enormous silhouette also tackled the horse and sent it flying with Gus's headless body, and Kiana lose her consciousness seeing this horrible scene and fell between the bloodthirsty wolf pack.
The enormous silhouette was a four-meter dark wolf, but it also has silver fur on its neck. It was the newly evolved dark wolf king.
The Dark Wolf King spat Gus's marred head and looked up in the sky and let loose a powerfully imposing roar,
'Awooooo!'
The other dark wolves trembled before they lower their heads in fear like dogs.
However, Dark Wolf King seemed to sense something as it stopped roaring and turned its head toward a tree, and it instantly noticed a humanoid silhouette!
'Boom, boom, boom…'
But before it could react, three consecutive gunshots rang in the vicinity, catching the wolf king off guard, nor did it have any time to dodge the insanely fast bullets!
They directly landed on its skull, and one of them was between its eyes!
The wolf king didn't have the chance to react before it was shot down by Jacob!
Those other wolves didn't know what happened, but when the wolf king's massive body fell to the ground, they all roar in panic and ran in all directions in perturbation.
'Well, this goes quite well. I should quickly collect its heart and blood before those dogs came back to their senses.' Jacob quickly jumped off the tree.
A metallic container appeared in his hand and he quickly emptied it, there were blood and the heart of another uncommon animal.
Since he had already hunted a rare beast, he naturally didn't need an uncommon animal's heart and blood.
He quickly sprang into action and acquired the wolf king's big heart, which was 1 foot in size, and filled the container with its blood before storing it away.
'It just a pity I can't eat it…' Jacob felt great regret for leaving this rare quality meat for those wolves, but he knew he can't carry this large carcass, or he'll be hunted down by those wolves as well soon.
His eyes suddenly landed on Kiana. She was still alive and only bleeding from the wound on her head, and then looked at those bags and rifles carried by Gus and her.
He nonchalantly picked up everything, the leather bags and rifles were now hanging around his neck, he said to the unconscious Kiana, "You should never wear perfume while hunting. I hope you can survive to remember this."
With that, he left toward the dark wolf ridge exit.
He was going toward where he left Pig Head to wait for him since that guy has become his burden, but he still was unwilling to let him go because he could tell as long as he found those liquids, Pig Head could be revived back to its peak.
Because Pig Head was still stronger than Jacob in its prime, and this was the reason Jacob didn't want to dispose of him this soon.
But Jacob also knew it was a long shot if he wanted to find those liquids, after observing Gus's group and the crude rifles in their possession. He was doubtful that humans could produce such liquids.
In the end, he was awakened in the presence of a rare species and that guy was nothing but ordinary, so he had little hope after coming to the uncommon region.
Nevertheless, this place was still perfect for him to hide until he completed the second stage of Cursed Heart Emergence and absorbed the information from human society. It won't be too late to move toward the rare region at that time.
After finding Pig Head, Jacob found a place to rest and also to see what was in those three bags that he got from this small encounter!
