The prairie was beautiful, and galloping on horseback in this vast world was relaxing. But to be honest, after a long time of galloping... it was actually quite boring.
The route that Becky had set out for them was to start from Lamberg and then move along the border of the prairie, passing by border cities or outposts. Only when they passed by a mountain range would they have to make a detour into the kingdom. So for a long time, all they could see was the endless prairie. Hao Ren felt that it was a little boring, but Lily seemed to be enjoying it. She was still "tying" herself to the horse like an octopus. Although the posture was not very elegant, she was in high spirits. Sometimes she would let out a loud howl, and the howl could be heard for miles, scaring the horses. The girl was already having fun.
"Why is she doing that?" Becky heard Lily howl a few times and finally could not help it. "She sounds like a werewolf."
"I am a werewolf!" Lily turned her head and said happily. She was really happy that she could openly tell others that she was an "otherworldling" without any scruples about her identity. This was unimaginable on Earth. She loved freedom, and obviously, this place had given her an unprecedented opportunity to play around.
"You really are a werewolf?!" Becky was particularly surprised. "Don't werewolves live in the mountains in the west? And your tribal country seems to be quite closed off. I rarely see you go to the human country and learn magic from humans. "
"I've been living with humans since I was a child!" Lily shouted. She loved this place where she could talk about her identity without any scruples. Becky was no stranger to werewolves, everyone in this world was no stranger to werewolves. What better place for otherworldlings to live than here? To be honest, if it were not for the lack of supermarkets, refrigerators, computers and a lot of delicious food, Lily would really like to live here.
Of course, this idea was a little impulsive: she had not seen the dangerous places in The Plane of Dreams.
The more Lily thought about it, the more excited she became. She then decided to recite a poem. She cleared her throat and said, "Awoooo..."
Vivian rode her horse to Hao Ren's side. "Doggie, you look excited … What are you looking for?"
Hao Ren looked into the distance as he replied, "It's the wolves. I think we've run into the wolves' territory. It's just that they didn't come here to hunt today. I still remember to put teeth in them. "
The team had been away from Lamberg for a few hours now, and they should be halfway through today's estimated journey. Although they were running along the border of the grassland, in fact, in order to make it easier for them to run, Becky had chosen a flatter area closer to the inner part of the grassland. This was already within the territory of the pack of black wolves. Hao Ren had initially agreed to Becky's route because it allowed them to pass through the grassland. He still remembered his promise to the alpha wolf.
However, the grassland was always wider than one could imagine, and the territory of the wolves was exceptionally large. They wandered around and hunted. If it was not a coincidence or a meeting point, it would be too difficult to find the wolves with just one ride.
Vivian was also interested in the wolves that Hao Ren had mentioned several times. She also realized that they would not meet the black wolves until they reached the mountain village. So, she thought for a moment and called out to Lily, "Doggie, how far can your howl go?"
Lily had just finished howling and was now very happy. "That depends on my mood... La... La..."
"Don't bring your own echo," Vivian had an idea. "Then you can shout as far as you can. I can even call you the king of the grassland."
Lily suddenly became vigilant. "Are you trying to trick me again?"
"Why do you think so?"
"Don't you usually complain that I'm too noisy? Sometimes when I go to the rooftop to express my feelings, you purposely come up from the basement to protest. " Lily rebuked. She had the habit of howling when she was happy, but the quiet vampire had a particular problem with it. Truth be told, it was not only Vivian who had a problem with it. Anyone who was normal would know that a husky's howl was very annoying. Moreover, Lily's howl would often cause the dogs in the streets and alleys to bark together. It was almost a mysterious public nuisance in the Southern Suburbs recently. Even Hao Ren often reminded the maiden to control her voice.
In the past, when Lily had her tail tucked between her legs, she was very restrained. She was afraid that the landlord of the house she rented would work at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Now that she was in the deserted Southern Suburbs, and she was surrounded by her "own people", she was more and more exposed to her true nature.
"Just do as I say. Who's so cunning to trick you all day?" Vivian pouted. "You've been staying at home for too long. Now you can yell as much as you want."
Lily thought for a while and sincerely believed Vivian's words. Then, it raised its voice and howled, "Awooo …"
At that time, Hao Ren had a feeling that the pack of black wolves would come soon. Wolves were very territorial.
Sure enough, as Lily howled all the way on horseback, the foreign howl finally attracted the attention of the local wolves.
Hao Ren saw some shadows flashing by at the end of the horizon. Not long after, there were many more black shadows tailing them. He immediately called out to Becky, who was in front of him. "Wait a minute, I have something to do."
Becky did not know what was going on. The rest of them stopped one after another. Only Lily was still holding on to the horse's back, howling and continuing to run forward. In the blink of an eye, they were hundreds of meters away. The werewolf maiden's cry of surprise could be heard. "I can't stop! Who can tell me how to stop! "
The maiden did not know how to ride a horse at all. Although she was very confident that she would soon become proficient, in fact, she was just hanging on to the horse with brute force. On the horse's back, she was like a piece of luggage. Now, she could not stop!
Hao Ren panicked when he saw the situation. He was ready to rush forward to save the daredevil. However, he did not expect Lily to be a werewolf. After a few hundred meters of panic, she successfully escaped from danger. The werewolf maiden simply jumped down from the galloping horse and ran to the front of the horse. She gathered her Qi in her dantian and slapped the horse.
A moment later, Lily came back with the horse on her shoulder. Yes, she was carrying the horse that Hao Ren had just ridden.
"… I've seen countless rookies in my life who don't know how to ride a horse." Becky was stunned. "But this is the first time I've seen one stop. Who's riding who?"
Hao Ren looked up to the sky and laughed awkwardly. He really could not explain why he was surrounded by such weirdos. Lily put the fainted pony on the ground and muttered gloomily, "I'm so pissed that I have to carry it."
"Alright, it has carried you all the way." Hao Ren pressed Lily's head. "Don't run around next time. Don't force yourself if you don't know how to ride a horse."
At this time, the dark shadows that were tailing behind the team had run in. As expected, it was the pack of black wolves that Hao Ren was familiar with. The strongest one was the mysterious alpha wolf that was well-read, well-versed in the art of war and had even learned art.
However, not all of the wolves were here. There were only about 20 wolves that came to meet Hao Ren. The few unlucky ones that had lost their teeth were not here.
"It's really you." The alpha wolf was stunned when it saw Hao Ren. "You humans are so troublesome. You always change your clothes. If it wasn't for the fact that I can't change your smell, I really don't know how to tell you apart."
In the eyes of wolves, humans were probably the same as animals in the eyes of humans. If one was not a professional, they might not even be able to tell a male from a female. Fortunately, wolves could still recognize people by smell.
"I heard a strange wolf howl just now. I thought it was some bastard coming to take our territory." Another black wolf nodded. "Your method of summoning us is quite original. Who was the one that howled just now? Good voice. I haven't heard such a clear tone for years. "
Lily quickly jumped to the front and said, "I howled! I howled! Are you the black wolves that Mr. Landlord mentioned? "
Then she gave Hao Ren a smirk and said, "Hehe, I told you I have a talent for singing. It's you guys who don't know how to appreciate it."
Hao Ren pushed Lily away and said, "It's a total of three songs, 'Woof, woof', on a loop. Don't be so full of yourself. How dare you mention singing in front of Wuyue. You're quite confident."
Then he went to the alpha wolf and said, "I've brought the doctor."
