The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 110 109. The Mystery of the Wolf King

After the Wolf King was dealt with, the remaining wolves were already in disarray. They were soon caught up and killed one by one.

With the death of the last wolf, tranquility finally returned to Serenity Meadow.

After coming back to his senses, Lin Feng realized that the temperature outside was still around minus ten degrees, which was bitingly cold.

The breath he exhaled when he spoke condensed into white smoke in the air, and it seemed that he could see the shape of coldness.

He suddenly shivered. The fierce battle just now made him sweat. Now the sweat became cold and stuck to his back, revealing an indescribable discomfort.

However, Lin Feng still felt a sense of accomplishment when he looked at the corpses of wild wolves on the ground.

He decided to take the Wolf King back to show off as a trophy. He cut off the Wolf King's head and hung it on the wall as a trophy. The wolf skin was also a good thing to keep out the cold.

In the process of cleaning the battlefield, Lin Feng was able to face the blood and death calmly. He remembered that when he first came to River Valley Town, he had to hesitate for a long time to kill a hare.

This is the rapid growth brought about by being in nature. Now Lin Feng can be called a cold killer, at least when it comes to animals.

Driving on the grass to look for the carcass of a wild wolf, Lin Feng asked Wayne to lead the way. A dog's sense of smell is far superior to that of humans.

Together with David and Nicholas, he dragged the body to the back of the car, preparing to throw it to Old MacLun for disposal later.

The wolf's blood dried on the back of the pickup truck, leaving an almost black trail, making it imperative to wash the car tomorrow.

Lin Feng had been searching for the Wolf King, and finally found it when he reached the sixth wolf.

The gray-white fur was extremely soft, as if it were the finest material for making a coat.

David got out of the car first and was about to lift the two front paws of the Wolf King, but suddenly he was stunned.

Lin Feng captured this scene as soon as he got out of the car and asked why.

David waved him over, "BOSS, we seem to be in big trouble."

Lin Feng's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

He quickly ran to the Wolf King's body, and an electronic collar was clearly visible.

Before, the Wolf King was lying on all fours with his thick hair covering his neck, but they didn't realize this secret.

Lin Feng knelt down, gently pushed aside the fluff next to the collar, and clearly saw the words on it: Yellowstone Park, and the number 29.

This collar is a locator, which means that the wolf codenamed 29 escaped from Yellowstone Park.

Lin Feng gasped. Although he didn't know the consequences of hunting a wolf with a locator, luckily only the wolf king wore a collar.

He speculated: "After 29 escaped from Yellowstone Park, he successfully became the leader of the wolf pack. Due to the low temperature and unable to find food in the wild, they came to the quiet grass pasture, but they were killed by us."

David nodded in agreement, "BOSS, what you analyzed is probably the truth."

Lin Feng asked again: "If you hunt a wild animal in Yellowstone Park, what will be the consequences?"

David frowned and thought for a moment before replying: "There may be some departments that will come to trouble us."

Lin Feng defended: "But we are self-defense. We can even eat giant pandas when our country is in emergency."

David shook his head and said, "This is America, they don't care about that."

Old MacLean was also nervous.

Although the fatal shot was fired by Lin Feng, 29 died in his ranch after all.

Besides, he was the one who asked Lakeside Ranch to come to the rescue. He will definitely be responsible for it when the time comes. This is the responsibility and style of a pastoral cowboy.

For a moment, the scene was completely silent, with only the sound of the wind whistling in my ears.

"Let me think."

Lin Feng spoke calmly, his eyes swept over everyone, and finally landed on David, "Uncle, which department should have jurisdiction over this situation?"

David responded quickly: "FWS, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. They're a federal government agency under the Department of the Interior that's responsible for this kind of thing."

Lin Feng nodded, expressing understanding.

He looked around, then his eyes fell on Wayne, with a thoughtful expression, "We can create an illusion to make FWS think that No. 29 is still alive. In this way, they will not come to trouble us."

"Create an illusion?" Nicholas asked doubtfully, "How to do it?"    "Take the locator off the Wolf King." Lin Feng said, waving for Wayne to come over and help.

He carefully checked the locator on the Wolf King's neck and found that it was very tight. "We need to take off this locator and put it on another living creature."

"Is this possible?" David asked worriedly, "What if we are discovered."

"So we have to make it perfect." Lin Feng said, already starting to slit the Wolf King's throat.

This process is bloody and cruel, and even the ranch cowboys who are used to seeing life and death can't help but feel palpitated.

But Lin Feng remained calm and successfully removed the locator from the Wolf King.

Then, he carefully put the locator around Wayne's neck, "Wayne, move around in a small area near the ranch so that the monitor can capture the signal."

Wayne knew what he needed to do and began to move around the ranch in a small area.

David looked at Lin Feng's operation and couldn't help but sigh: "BOSS, you are a genius. I have a new understanding of you."

"Don't be too happy, this is just the first step."

Lin Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead, "We also need to create an illusion that 29 was attacked by a brown bear, dismembered and thrown into the river, so as to completely dispel their suspicions."

"Then let's act quickly." David said impatiently, "I know how to fake the scene."

Nicholas took the initiative to ask for a job but was declined by Lin Feng. He had to do this kind of thing himself to ensure nothing went wrong.

Old McLun told Lin Feng in his hoarse voice that they were in a very difficult situation now and would be grateful for the help of Lakeside Ranch after this difficult period.

Nicholas patted Lin Feng on the shoulder, "Contact me anytime if you can find anything useful."

Lin Feng nodded to express his understanding.

When he was about to leave, a bark caught his attention. The Dogo suddenly appeared in front of everyone and barked at Lin Feng several times.

"This dog seems to like you very much. If you don't dislike it, take it away. If you follow us, you will only suffer." Nicholas said.

Lin Feng accepted it happily.

He admired the bravery shown by this Dogo in the previous battle. There were not many dogs that could fight three wolves.

"What's its name?"

"David."

Uncle David next to him showed an embarrassed expression when he heard the name, "Wait a minute, what is it called?"

Nicholas seemed unaware that his dog had the same name as the rugged old man.

Lin Feng couldn't help but grinned but didn't make a sound, while David crossed his arms and spread his hands with a smile to express his helplessness.

In this way, the Dogo named David became a new member of Lakeside Ranch.

Wayne was very happy with the arrival of his new companion and kept circling around it.

Tonight, there was a battle between the four dogs in Quiet Grassland. Three were killed and one was taken away by Lin Feng.

However, most of the cattle were saved, only three calves were lost, and the four injured adult cattle were probably not a big problem.

The scene was a mess and they no longer had the energy to clean it up. They could only wait until the sun rose tomorrow to deal with it.

In addition, the fence around the quiet grassland has been damaged in many places, and wild animals may break in at any time.

The fact is that McClung's family business is already in jeopardy.

Before leaving, Lin Feng inspected the situation with David and their new members David and Wayne. Although David suffered some external injuries, fortunately there were no serious injuries. He believes that he will be very healthy under the careful care of Lakeside Ranch. It will recover quickly and become an excellent guard of the ranch in the future.

When Lin Feng was about to say goodbye, he reluctantly returned Nicholas' AR-15 rifle to him.

The excitement of shooting at the wolves just now still echoed in his heart. The pleasure of shooting with the semi-automatic rifle gave him a new understanding of weapons, as if it had opened the door to a new world.
