I had the wolves lead me to their nest, I dragged the Grey Wolf leader's corpse with me and yet, none of the wolves made any remark about it. I didn't know whether it was because they were beasts or that they were just that cold. Following the wolves, we arrived at an area with many big trees with holes at its base.

The wolf at front howled and wolves came out of the holes, the wolves that came out were either old, young, or pregnant, able-bodied wolves were few, I assumed they were left for guarding the pack. The wolves that came out from the holes were wary of me.

I walked past the wolves group that attacked me with the beautiful fox following beside me, I threw the corpse of the Grey Wolf leader before them, the corpse was missing its head. The wolves backed away in fear when they saw the corpse. I looked at the wolves before me and said with no emotion.

"Submit or die like your leader." (MC)

They looked at their former leader and after a short pause, they started to howl.

"You strong, we follow you!"
"New Alpha!"

They acknowledged me as their new leader like the others, the moment they did, a notification rang in my head.

"[Dominate] skill's effect activated! You have dominated this pack with a display of power and fear. You have become the new leader of this pack, the Alpha male! Increasing the pack members loyalty and their potential by ten points!"

I felt something leaking out of my body and entered the wolves bodies when I appraised the wolves again, I found their max level rose by ten levels. While there were still fear in their eyes, I could see newfound respect and awe for me in them.

With this, I could confirm that max level represents an individual's potential, I guessed the higher it was the higher their chance to evolve. Knowing my cheat could reinforce the subordinates under me put me in a superb mood, ten levels plus to max level meant more power for my subordinates and the stronger they were the better. I took the former Alpha's dwelling, it was a big hole under the biggest tree around, I was curious how did the tree doesn't fall despite the hole under it.

The tree was at least fifteen meters tall with a thick smooth trunk about five meters in diameter, the tree was dark brown color and all the branches and leaves were located on the top of the tree, forming an umbrella shape.

Steel Trunk Tree

Barkless trees that belong to the big tree category in both sizes of the tree itself and its trunk, the biggest of its kind ever recorded was thirty meters tall. The tree's roots are strong and abundant to support the tree humongous size. Logs procure from this tree is dense and tough, the logs are also heavy enough that it won't float on water. Perfect for making armor and weapon.

I put my hand on the tree and grabbed hard and yet, I barely left a mark on the tree. The feel of the tree was strange, it felt soft like foam and yet there was a strong rebounding force in it. I went inside the hole and it was bigger than I expected.

It was about four meters in diameter and two meters high, I let out a small wisp of fire and discovered that the hole's wall was covered by strains of roots, even the roof and floor also covered by it. There were claw marks all over the roots, which I deduced left when they dig this hole. These dense roots were the reason the trees still standing despite the huge holes under them, I put away my baggage in the hole and came out.
