The main reason is that there are too many howling beasts.
Wuming found it hard to believe that this grassland could support such a large herd of howling beasts.
Generally speaking, the more predators there are, the more food is needed. The number of predators in each ecosystem is fixed. Once the number is too large, the ecological balance will inevitably be broken.
When the food is gone, the predators themselves will starve to death.
But now there are at least three hundred howling beasts around, roughly speaking. Is there really so much food on this grassland
Before Wuming could think about it, the battle had already begun. Several soldiers surrounded a howling beast. In a short while, some howling beasts were killed, and some soldiers were killed.
The howling beast is much stronger than the wildlings. If the wildlings want to kill it, they must at least stab the beast's vitals with a stone spear. Once the howling beast bites the wildling, the wildling can basically be declared dead.
They shake their heads and bite the bones cleanly.
The soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and many of the savages who rushed forward were just eating their cakes. Before they could even attack, they were ambushed by howling beasts out of their blind spots and died quickly.
Wuming saw several boys and girls about the same age as Xia Hua rushing forward, throwing stones once and then running away, but they were caught up by a howling beast in the blink of an eye.
The howling beast knocked a young boy to death, then bit the girl's leg and quickly dragged her into the darkness. For a moment, only screams could be heard.
"Don't leave the area where the fire can reach, and don't step out of my shadow!" Wuming said to Xia Hua at this time.
Xia Hua immediately nodded to show that she understood, and followed Wuming closely, concentrating and holding the stone knife with sweat on her face.
Because they were quite far away from the periphery, when the two men rushed over, the periphery warriors had already retreated more than ten meters. Wuming came up and punched a howling beast on the forehead.
The howling beast was not unaware of Wuming's attack. In fact, if any other savage dared to hit its head like this, it would bite off the attacker's arm in one clean bite.
However, when Wuming attacked, it had hallucinations in its eyes, but it was only a momentary illusion, and then Wuming's fist hit its head.
A powerful force instantly penetrated its bones and shattered its brain.
Just then, another howling beast attacked from his blind spot. He took a step back and raised his hand. The moment the howling beast jumped past him, his hand slowly dropped and slapped the howling beast on the head. After the howling beast landed, its limbs went limp and it fell directly to the ground.
"How powerful!" Xia Hua couldn't help but say when she saw Wuming kill the two howling beasts so quickly and efficiently.
Wuming said calmly: "Don't be distracted, pay attention to the situation around you."
"Yes!" Xia Hua responded immediately.
Wuming looked around and listened attentively, searching for the king of beasts among the howling beasts.
As the saying goes, to catch a thief, you must first catch the king. If he can kill the beast king, he can use his biological force field to intimidate the herd of howling beasts and then drive them away.
The problem is that no one knows where the King of the Howling Beasts is hiding.
Wuming didn't dare to use the bioforce field to search the surroundings at all now. After all, the Howling Beasts were lurking around him. Once he released the bioforce field to look for the Beast King, his body would be torn to pieces by the Howling Beasts in a matter of minutes.
To be honest, group battles are really Wuming's weakness nowadays.
