Chapter 484: Hunting Time part 2 (1/2)
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
Leo and his Alpha Lion team along with Elizabeth and her Frost Lion team traveled together to go to the north, the location of the Green Fur Ape tribe.
As it was their first time venturing into this place, they keep reminding themselves to remain extremely cautious.
The farther they were from the base and were slowly arriving at their destination, the more anxious and at the same time excited they became.
According to Elvis, there were exactly three Green Fur Ape tribes in the north, respectively located in the northwest, north, and northeast direction, with the latter having the biggest tribe compared to the former two.
Since they can't afford to be careless here, Leo chooses to proceed with the northwest side first, then slowly proceed to the east. In such a way, his team and Elizabeth's team would be able to slowly adapt to fighting against the Green Fur Apes and also familiarize themselves with the surrounding area.
The Green Fur Ape tribe located at the northwest was the farthest from the base. Therefore, they only arrived when afternoon came. They didn't forget to take their lunch first before preparing to catch the Green Fur Ape.
”We have found a total of 60 Green Fur Apes, with the lowest being in the 1 Star level while the highest are in the 5 Star level,” Elizabeth reported to Leo the findings of the Frost Lion team. She soon continued, ”Those weak Green Fur Apes live underground, specifically inside some small holes. We have assumed that those hoes have been dug by themselves and are connected with each other. While the strong Green Fur Apes built some kind of treehouse high up above the ground,”
”It seemed like this would be a bit difficult to handle,” Leo easily understood the difficulty of fighting against this Green Fur Ape tribe after hearing Elizabeth's report.
”Indeed,” Elizabeth nodded her head in agreement.
The situation was like this; if they choose to focus on the strong Green Fur Apes, the weak Green Fur Apes would be able to launch their attacks from the ground, while on the other hand, if they choose to focus on the weak Green Fur Apes, the strong Green Fur Apes would be able to launch their attacks from above.
Unbeknownst to Elizabeth though, although some people might indeed find this choice rather difficult, including her, but for Leo, this was just child's play.
When an eagle hunt for a snake, the eagle wouldn't choose to fight the snake on the ground, as that would mean the eagle is giving the snake the home base advantage. What the eagle would do instead is it would take the snake up in the skies and fight it over there. In such a way, the eagle would have the home base advantage as the snake couldn't maneuver that well while falling from the skies.
Applying that to their current situation this time; the Green Fur Apes are good when it comes to fighting on the trees, so choosing to focus on the strong Green Fur Apes would be stupid, as that would mean giving them the home base advantage. But choosing the weak Green Fur Apes meant the same again, considering that the location is still surrounded by plenty of trees.
This means that what they should do is they should bring those strong Green Fur Apes to the ground, or instead, force them to go down to the ground by cutting the trees.
Although doing this doesn't actually give them the home base advantage, but at the very least they also remove the home base advantage for the Green Fur Apes, thus making the fight fair and square.
However, that is only going to be the case if they don't have any sort of preparation on the ground...
”Gather your Frost Lion team here,” Leo said to Elizabeth before turning around to also call his Alpha Lion team.
”Okay!” Elizabeth nodded her head.
After a few minutes, everyone from both the Alpha Lion team and Frost Lion team were finally gathered together.
Leo quickly took out a map from his Storage Ring and laid it on the top of the table. He then grabbed a pen by the side as he made a circle in their location before saying, ”I want all the trees over here to be removed in order to make this place into flat land. Afterwards, we would then begin putting some traps that will catch the Green Fur Apes, understood?”
The instructions weren't really that difficult, so everyone nodded their heads in affirmation.
”Roger that!”
”Yes!”
”Affirmative!”
”.....”
With that being said, everyone quickly began preparing.
The Alpha Lion team and Frost Lion team had a total of 26 people altogether, so they split it into 5 groups with each having 5 members with Leo not being part of any group as he would be guiding everyone on what to do.
It didn't take that long for all the trees to be removed, so they soon proceeded with setting up the traps.
When all was over, Leo then called out Iasiah and some strong members of their two teams, a total of 5 people, to brief them about what they would be doing?
