The Wolf Field is nestled within a mountain range.
Sturdy wooden fences form a semicircle, backed by rolling pine forests.
Inside the fence are dozens of wolf huts, varying in size, built from rough logs.
Each hut has an independent wooden cabin, lined with thick straw.
Scattered around the Wolf Field are large boulders and dead woods for the Desert Wolves to play and sharpen their claws and teeth.
"This place even makes the air stink."
Vivian, who followed Luo De to the Wolf Field, said angrily.
The interruption of embroidery needle forging made her displeased with everything here.
But reason told Vivian, it must be something important for Luo De to come to the Wolf Field personally.
Therefore, Vivian couldn't say anything, only crossed her arms and kept glaring at the field's manager.
Wolfhoof is not here; currently, the Wolf Field is managed by Wolfhoof's brother, Gomoka.
This man has not awakened the Beast Spirit.
But due to Wolfhoof's agreement with these Desert Wolves, normal feeding and maintenance can still be done.
After all, there are other tribe members with awakened Beast Spirits aiding.
Gomoka didn't notice Vivian's displeasure; at the first sight of Luo De, he immediately knelt.
"Great Saint Master, I sincerely apologize for troubling you to come personally."
His voice was trembling slightly,
"We have something important here that needs your decision."
"Let's go, I understand."
Luo De waved his hand,
"Take me to see that mother wolf."
On the way, Luo De had already roughly understood the situation.
A birthing mother wolf had given birth to an unusually large Black Wolf Cub.
Initially, this black wolf was similar to the other wolf pups, just a bit larger.
The size difference among wolf pups was somewhat normal.
Besides, the wolves' mating cycles were already off—logically, why would they mate in winter?
This was already unexpected, so a slightly larger wolf pup wasn't surprising.
No one paid it much attention.
They simply thought this little black wolf was especially beautiful and robust.
Until the mother wolf fed it for a week.
The fellow ate two to three times as much as the other pups daily, nearly drying out the mother wolf.
The Black Wolf Cub was already getting larger and larger.
After a week, it was already larger than a small dog, an exaggerated sight.
Everyone thought this little black wolf was sick.
But this wolf pup was extremely lively, having jumped out of the hut several times to mingle with the adult Desert Wolves.
Bear in mind, typical two-week-old wolf pups couldn't move stably and were just starting to try crawling or clumsily walk.
The Wildmen of the Wolfhoof Tribe, with the Beast Spirit Awakening, realized it might be a giant wolf mutation and promptly reported it to Luo De.
Although they had never heard of such spontaneous pup mutations before.
"Yes, great Saint Master."
Gomoka respectfully responded, leading Luo De into the wolf pen.
Without needing anyone's protection, the wolves in the pen automatically made way upon seeing Luo De.
Soon, these Desert Wolves obediently prostrated themselves on the ground, as if welcoming their king.
Luo De quickly found the mother wolf nursing her pups in a separate hut.
The room was dim, and the floor was covered with dry grass; the mother wolf curled up in a corner, surrounded by several pups.
Luo De went in for a closer look; this mother wolf was just an ordinary Desert Wolf, appearing unremarkable.
The other wolf pups were the same.
The mother wolf raised her head to look at Luo De, her gentle eyes tinged with tiredness, and she proactively lifted her leg.
It seemed to invite Luo De to share a drink.
"No, thank you, I won't drink it."
Luo De helplessly turned his head, seeing the little black wolf pup trying to squeeze through the fence on the other side.
Indeed, it was extraordinarily large.
Luo De knew this was definitely the work of the Breeding Lord's talent, mutating this little wolf.
The ordinary Desert Wolf mutated into a Giant Desert Wolf.
This giant wolf, similar to those in the Beast Spirit lineage of the Wolfhoof Tribe, lacked innate spell-casting abilities but possessed immense strength and endurance.
Giant wolves could travel long distances, retaining the ferocity and spirituality of wolves, making them excellent mounts.
The giant wolves in the Beast Spirit lineage resulted from generations of magic drug cultivation, while Luo De's relied purely on trait mutation.
From a probability perspective, this giant wolf mutation was pure luck for Luo De.
After all, Desert Wolves didn't reproduce like rabbits, constantly increasing the mutation probability's denominator.
The little fellow immediately approached excitedly but clumsily wagged its tail upon seeing Luo De.
Luo De crouched down, gently stroking the black wolf's head.
The little guy let out low, sorrowful whimpers, sounding aggrieved.
And Luo De understood.
This fellow longed for exercise and running.
As a mutant, it was growing faster than other Desert Wolves.
But it also needed exercise and hunting.
It no longer wanted to stay in the pen, nursing from its wolf mother.
It wanted to tear into wild prey, ripping fresh flesh from its victims.
Luo De reached out to lift the black wolf's lips.
Indeed, the little one had already grown teeth, completely exceeding the normal wolf category.
Suddenly intrigued, Luo De reached under the black wolf.
It was a she-wolf.
Looks like Luo De has found another mate for the White Wolf.
Oh no, the White Wolf remains loyal to his wife.
Looks like this little wolf can only be his son's mate.
Luo De patted the wolf's head, turning to instruct Gomoka:
"Feed it some minced meat; its mother's milk is no longer enough."
Gomoka cautiously said, "Lord, wolf pups usually can't eat minced meat until about forty-five days old…"
"It's alright, it's different from ordinary wolves."
