The total weight of the two guinea fowls is less than ten pounds. Cyrus tried his best to make Calvin and Charlie eat enough, but he still feels hungry.
At sunset, Cyrus stood on the termite mound and gazed into the distance. Upon entering, there was still an endless grassland and vast dry grass, with no prey or anything.
Calvin and Charlie didn't chase and play as usual. They tried to save every penny of their energy, and the best way was to lie down quietly, lean against Cyrus, and enjoy the tranquility of the evening.
"Dad, are you telling a story today?"
Charlie likes to spoil Cyrus, the six-month-old cheetah still carries the childishness of three months old. Cyrus often thinks that perhaps he is not a competent father, he always cannot break free from human thinking patterns, which can lead to fatal mistakes at some point.
"Do you want to hear a story?"
"Think about it."
Charlie and Calvin gathered next to Cyrus, who was still empty in his stomach. He could even feel a noticeable lack of energy and the weakness of his muscles being constantly depleted, but he couldn't show any signs. Now, he is the entirety of the two cheetahs. From the day he picked them up, they have also become Cyrus's pillars in this unfamiliar world.
Three cheetahs were lying in the tall grass, and the withered yellow grass obscured their figures, making it difficult for night time predators to detect them. The night was deep, and Cyrus looked at the two little cheetahs sleeping quietly, licking their ears and falling asleep.
Suddenly, Cyrus opened his eyes and perked up his ears, carefully discerning the sounds coming from the wind. The roar of the lion remained as usual, while the roar of the hyena was somewhat unusual.
Two little cheetahs were also woken up. Calvin and Charlie imitated Cyrus, carefully listening to the sound echoing on the grassland. They had never heard a hyena barking like this before. In the impression of the two little cheetahs, this ugly creature could only emit creepy screams.
"Dad, what's going on?"
Calvin and Charlie leaned together, keeping each other warm. The temperature difference between day and night makes them uncomfortable after waking up suddenly.
"I'm not quite sure," Cyrus said without a trace of drowsiness. He knew that the hyenas' barking tonight was unusual, but he couldn't distinguish what it meant. Did the lion pack attack them?
In fact, the largest group of hyenas in Orus territory is currently undergoing an unusual coup tonight.
The hyena pack where female hyena Nally lived originally consisted of more than 80 hyenas. These hyenas were strong, greedy, and fond of killing. Before Orus became the leader of the pride, they were once able to compete with the pride. Occasionally, with the advantage of numbers, they could even seize the prey captured by the lionesses and claim it as their own. However, all this came to an end with the arrival of Orus' rule. That evolved male lion did not hesitate to hunt and expel Nally's family. Nally's mother, the former leader of the hyena pack, died in a conflict between the hyena pack and the pride. Since Nally became the leader of the hyena pack, the number of members of the hyena pack has continued to decrease, either due to death or disappearance. After the dry season arrived, the scarcity of food made the situation of the hyenas even more difficult.
At present, there are less than forty members of the entire hyena pack. Despite Nally's strong physique, she has a fatal flaw - she is unable to give birth to a baby and has tried many times, each time failing to meet her expectations. This has led to a resurgence of unrest in the hyena pack, with the female leader unable to bear offspring, which is a disaster for the entire population.
Another high-ranking female hyena, Nabi, began to constantly provoke Nally. She was as robust as Nally and had ambitious ambitions for the domination of the tribe. Nally cannot give up her position as the leader. Once she is driven out of her position as the leader and awaits her, her position in the tribe will plummet. At that time, even the youngest cub can bully her at will.
Nally wanted to change her unfavorable situation as much as possible, but Nabi wouldn't give her this opportunity. Tonight, the entire hyena pack fell into chaos. Nabi and her followers launched an attack on Nally. In the melee, Nally was bitten on the back of her neck and one ear was also bitten off by Nabi. She was in a state of embarrassment, hissing and screaming, with eerie cries spreading far and wide, whether it was the lion pack or the Cyrus father and son, We all heard the mournful cries of the female leader of the hyena tribe.
Until the very last moment, Nally did not give in. She fiercely bit the hind leg of a hyena and, when the other person was in pain, broke out of Nabi's encirclement.
Nally escaped and Nabi successfully ascended to the throne of the leader, but her ambition was not limited to that.
Nally dragged herself in pain through the grasslands at night. Even if she was injured and looked disheveled, she was still a predator second only to lions, and no one dared to provoke her at will.
Feeling disheartened, Nally did not notice that there was a cheetah lurking in the grass ahead of her, which was about to take her life.
Cyrus clenched onto the tough long grass in his hand and lay down in the bushes with his breath held. He didn't want to provoke the injured mother hyena, but if she continued on, she would undoubtedly find two little cheetahs in the grass. If it were before, Cyrus's first choice would have been to sneak away with two little cheetahs, but tonight Cyrus doesn't want to do that.
He wants to kill her!
Two little cheetahs quietly hid in the grass, watching Cyrus's every move. They saw Cyrus transform its form, leaping at an extremely fast speed as the hyena passed by, pouncing behind it, gripping the long grass with both hands and tightly gripping the hyena's neck with its tough stem! Lowering his head, he fiercely bit the wound on the hyena's ear.
Suddenly attacked, Nally instinctively wanted to bite the guy who was attacking her, but found the other person shamelessly hiding behind her, twisting her neck with a straw in an attempt to strangle her!
In the form of a hyena, it is simply impossible to cope with this situation. Nally is not an evolutionary species, and she can only desperately swing her head, exerting maximum force, trying to throw the attacker behind her. Several times, Cyrus was almost thrown away by Nally's terrifying strength, but all of this was in vain.
It wasn't until Nally was out of breath that Cyrus finally let go. The mother hyena collapsed on the ground, its neck twisted at a strange angle.
Calvin and Charlie witnessed the entire massacre, the guy who killed their mother, and so he was killed by his father!
Dad is very powerful, he can kill hyenas!
Cyrus propped his hands behind him, spitting out the fresh blood and minced meat from his mouth, panting heavily. If he had any carelessness or hesitation just now, he would be the one who died on the ground at this moment.
Very reckless, but very satisfying. The previous frustration and anger seemed to have been swept away with this slaughter.
However, the flesh and blood of hyenas are really unpleasant to eat.
"Dad!"
Calvin and Charlie walked out of the grass, and Charlie climbed onto Cyrus's lap, happily rubbing against him. "Dad is so amazing!"
Calvin walked up to Nally's body and bit her neck hard. Bite the dead hyena like a young antelope.
Cyrus did not stop Calvin and encouraged Charlie to give it a try. As two cheetahs were biting Nally's body, Cyrus stood up and wiped away the blood from his lips. His slender body, jet black hair, and smooth skin, wrapped in moonlight, emitted a honey colored luster.
Amber colored eyes eventually landed on a tall and burly lion in the distance. Surprisingly, Cyrus was not surprised or afraid of Orus appearing here.
Orus just looked at Cyrus for a while before turning around and leaving.
Next time, let's play with this evolved cheetah. He still has to patrol his territory, he's very busy.
