Chapter 485: Hunting Time part 3 (1/2)

Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce

Since it was already afternoon when Leo and both the Alpha Lion team and Frost Lion team were able to successfully capture all the Green Fur Apes in that Green Fur Ape tribe, they quickly prepared themselves to return back to the base.

Although there were no longer any Green Fur Apes nearby them, that still doesn't mean that there won't be any Magical Beasts anymore.

Needless to say, the only reason why Elvis only mentioned the Green Fur Ape tribe in the north was because it was the only notable Magical Beast to be found over this place. The other Magical Beasts that exist here were either working solo or were only part of a small ground that can't pose any sort of danger to them as long as they aren't careless.

They would only be capturing all of these Magical Beasts after cleaning up all the notable Magical Beast tribes in the vicinity of this Green Area. In such a way, they wouldn't have to worry about the dangerous Magical Beast tribe anymore while they are going to slowly clear off this Green Area of Magical Beasts.

Nevertheless, along the way back to the base, they started capturing every Magical Beast they have seen to curve down their boredom.

Before night came, Leo and both the Alpha Lion team and Frost Lion team finally returned back to the base.

As soon as they arrived though, Leo immediately saw both the Delta Lion team and Eagle Lion team taking care of a lot of their injured members.

Leo was really surprised seeing their situation right now because both the Alpha Lion team and Frost Lion team had only received a few wounded members, with all of them having only received very minor wounds that can be treated in less than a day. Yet both the Delta Lion team and Eagle Lion team, both under the leadership of Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre, had actually received a lot of injured members.

The Green Skinned Anaconda was also not considered a dangerous species of Magical Beast as well, just in the same level as the Yellow Skinned Anacondas, or maybe even worst, considering that the Yellow Skinned Anacondas had the helped of the special environment of the Yellow Forest. Therefore, it shouldn't be because of the Green Skinned Anaconda.

”What happened?” Leo curiously asked.

Seeing Leo had come, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre quickly half-kneeled on the ground.

”We deeply apologize for our mistake, Guild Leader Loki,” Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre quickly apologized in unison. They didn't bother saying any excuse as they directly admitted their mistakes.

”Just tell me what happened?” Leo asked again, his expression this time turning very serious.

”During our journey towards the location of the Green Skinned Anaconda tribe, we unexpectedly stumbled upon a pack of Savage Foxes. And since you have informed us to only focus on what Magical Beast tribe was assigned to our team, we took a detour and ignored them. Despite doing that though, we still found a few Savage Foxes, thus we took another detour to avoid them. However, no matter how many detours we make, we still keep on stumbling upon them, until we finally realized that in every detour we make, we consequently have also fallen deeper and deeper into their trap. When we realized that, we were already deep in their formation,” Sebastian explained what had happened to them.

”We know clearly just how dangerous it is to fall into the trap of the Savage Foxes, so we quickly initiated a retreat,” Dan said before pointing towards the members of the Delta Lion team and Eagle Lion team who were treating their injuries, as he continued, ”In the process of our retreat, we received all of these injuries,”

”We were really fortunate that we have quickly decided to retreat, or else we would have received some casualties in both our teams,” Old man Torre said. In the next moment, though, he shook his head and said, ”Still, it's not enough to forgive our mistake,”

”No, it's fine, as long as everyone is safe and there are no casualties,” Leo comforted Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre.

He indeed can't just blame Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre for what had happened to both of their teams. To begin with, none of them, including everyone present in this operation, we're experienced enough when it comes to handling the Savage Foxes. In fact, the only information they knew about the Savage Foxes was the most common information that almost everyone knew about, specifically that they are very cunning. Of course, no one knows exactly how very cunning they are, thus they didn't expect that they would be led right into a trap in every detour they have made.

”Just rest here in the base until everyone is healed,” Leo said before adding, ”But of course, as the Leaders of both the Delta Lion team and Eagle Lion team, the three of you will receive a punishment,”

”I understand,” Sebastian nodded his head in acknowledgment.

”I have no problem with that,” Dan expressed his agreement.

”Sounds fair to me,” Old man Torre understood that doing this was fair and justified.

”The punishment isn't really that hard, the three of you would just be assigned to guard the base during the night time until we leave this place,” Leo faintly smiled.

”Okay,” Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre nodded their heads in unison.

After doing that, Leo went to comfort the injured members of both the Delta Lion team and Eagle Lion team before leaving.
