After devouring the carcass of the Great Terror Wolf, Kent walked towards another wolf's corpse.
The Howling Prairie is a good place.
Time flies, and the Bloody Moon hangs high in the sky.
The crimson moonlight spills over the green grassland, like a painting in bold colors.
The night on the grassland is so quiet, with the howling wind as the only melody.
Near a corner of the Howling Prairie, a creepy chewing sound broke the silence.

Kent stopped after devouring the valuable parts of the Long-Maned Horn Horse, which was not killed by him. Eating the whole horse would not increase his experience points.
This wasn't a gift from nature; it was loot from a bandit.
The Howling Prairie stretched endlessly. Kent would spend a lot of time finding suitable prey, so he changed his strategy.
Where there's howling, there's prey. After all, the hunting strategy of the Great Terror Wolf pack is to surround and create panic with howls first.
It's best to take down the Great Terror Wolves. If not, he could use the wolf pack's encirclement to kill herbivorous beasts that he couldn't catch up with originally.
This Long-Maned Horn Horse was special. Because it was too far away, when Kent arrived, it was already dead.
Kent could only help it get revenge with tears, ambushing and killing a Great Terror Wolf that was engrossed in eating.
The Long-Maned Horn Horse was very touched and eagerly invited the benefactor to feast. Kent declined but had to accept in the end.
As expected of a high-level map, in an afternoon and half a night, Kent hunted down seven Great Terror Wolves, two Giant Horned Bullbeasts, one Long-Maned Horn Horse, and one Eight-Legged Staring Antelope!
The materials from them increased his physical resistance by 8 points, magic resistance by 4 points, constitution by 1.3 points, strength by 0.3 points, and agility by 0.1 points!
The material that increased agility was the "Tendon Essence of the Eight-Legged Staring Antelope." When Kent learned that this material could compensate for his weakness, he was ecstatic.
Unfortunately, this kind of monster was too fast. Except for the first time when he was lucky to encounter one that was bitten by a Great Terror Wolf, Kent failed to catch one after several attempts.
In addition, he found six Rare-grade herbs: three Dual-Color Detoxification Flowers, one Verdant Herb, one Peaceful Heart Fragrant Leaf, and one Wolf's Blood Grass.
Unfortunately, only the Wolf's Blood Grass was useful, increasing his agility by 0.1 after ingestion.
Dual-Color Detoxification Flowers were the main ingredient for low-level detoxification potions, but they did not increase any attributes after consumption.
The Verdant Herb was the main ingredient for intermediate life potions, and the Peaceful Heart Fragrant Leaf was the main ingredient for low-level concentration potions. Kent guessed that these two herbs probably didn't increase attributes either, so he stored them in his internal space.
Now, he was just a little bit away from level 12. Killing one more normal monster would be enough...

[Experience: 5006/5000, level lv11→lv12 (experience 6/6000)]
Kent raised his front paw and looked at the lump of flesh and blood in his palm, sinking into thought.
Is this... a gift from nature?
[Race: Giant Desert Dragon Lizard, Rank: Red-Named Elite, Level: lv12 (experience: 6/7500)]
[Strength: 26.3 (25.3+1), Constitution: 39.1 (37.1+2), Spirit: 13 (12+1), Agility: 12.2]
[Physical Resistance: 69 (61+8), Magic Resistance: 37 (33+4), Internal Space: 0.3/1]
[Health: 9775/9775, Mana: 1300/1300, Stamina: 1173/1173]
Looking at the six attributes that had all increased after leveling up, Kent fell into thought.
Agility was a very important attribute, but his race's weakness was speed. The attribute increase from leveling up was too little, and the materials that increased agility were not easy to obtain. There was only one way to overcome this weakness.
Kent looked at a certain line on the design panel and revealed a silly smile.
Continue to accumulate experience and level up!
Just as he was preparing to work harder and stay up all night, a series of wolf howls came from a distance, making him shiver involuntarily.
What's this? He immediately became serious and quietly crawled in the direction away from the wolf howls.
He had never heard such howls before!
This is not the howl of the Three-eyed Terror Wolf King, because, in his past life, he had brushed against the Three-eyed Terror Wolf King many times to make a piece of equipment. And as a Red-Named Elite, the howl of the Three-eyed Terror Wolf King couldn't make him feel palpitations!
Wait a minute, there shouldn't be a boss in the Howling Prairie, could this be a new boss added in the public beta?
In the closed beta, there were only three bosses near the Kailin Village, namely the "Four-Handed Tyrant Ape" at the top of the "Small Desolate Mountain" in the Verdant Hills, the "Old Lady Huai Tree" under the "Giant Tree" in the center of the "Giant Tree Forest," and the "Cave Spider King" in the depths of the "Spider Cave" in the "Chaotic Rock Cave."
There are no bosses in Riverside Brook or the Howling Forest, and the former doesn't even have Red-Named Elite monsters.
After thinking for a long time and not figuring out anything, Kent finally decided to strategically retreat from the Howling Prairie. It's not that he couldn't handle the unknown wolf, but the monsters in the Verdant Hills were more cost-effective.
Traveling all night, Kent finally arrived at the Verdant Hills before the orange sun appeared.
Along the familiar road to the Giant Lizard Forest where the Desert Dragon Lizards mainly lived, Kent, who was extremely exhausted, found a shady spot, curled his body into a circle, buried his most vulnerable points, his neck, and head, under his abdomen, and began to sleep.
