Over the next few hours, Zion and his team fought beasts they trusted they could deal with while stopping to rest or recover from injuries.
By the 4th hour, they had dealt with quite a few beasts, and Zions EXP managed to get over 2000 finally.
They were currently hunting down another beast that Zion had found. They were tracking its path when Zion suddenly noticed a sickeningly familiar scent, causing his eyes to narrow, 'This smells like the bear from last time.'
As they approached the beast they were tracking, they all got into positions where they could observe without being spotted. What they saw was a bit... unusual. The beast they had been tracking was a type of cat beast called a Grey Spotted Feline. It was a pretty simple beast. There was no affinity, but it was fast.
However, what they saw ahead of them was that particular beast lying on the ground dead, with a deer-like creature standing above it. It's crystal-like antlers dripping with blood.
