Chapter 198: Let’s Run, Fox (XIV)

TL: SnowTime, Sarah

   
When the young beastmen saw the eye-catching appearance of Mutu riding the loch bull, they were filled with envy. As such, Mutu decided to start a cavalry training plan aiming to cultivate their first cavalry squad within this year.

The image of a group of lions riding bulls popped up in Shang Ke’s mind, giving him the feeling that something was off about it. Although loch bulls weren’t as beautiful as horses, they had robust bodies and imposing auras. A group of them appearing was enough pressure for an enemy group.

When they found and were able to domesticate other mounts in the future, they could develop different types of cavalry. Like climbing style, water-crossing style, leaping style, etc. Naturally, while dreams are amazing, reality is cruel. Most of the beasts of this world are not to be trifled with. Let alone domesticate them, just catching them was a hard task. Loch bulls were considered one of the easier ones to catch and domesticate.

If the lion tribe could really cultivate a loch bull cavalry, then they would be the ultimate powerhouse of the Kaloch Mountains—at least for the initial period.

Because of the cavalry plan, wild loch bulls gradually became the darlings of the lion tribe. In the not-too distant future, they would even be removed from the lion’s cookbook. With the identity of mounts, they would leave their own mark in history with the beastmen.

But at the moment, everything was at the starting point. If the lions wanted to become riders, they had to first learn how to raise their mounts.

As the only one with a mount right now, Mutu would ride the loch bull he named ‘Calf’ everyday to show off.

Mutu had wanted to name him ‘Kit’, ‘Love Fox’, or ‘Big Tail’ and so on, but under Shang Ke’s firm opposition, he finally reluctantly switched to ‘Calf’.

Not only could Calf be used as a ride, he could also be used as transportation and carry around a couple hundred kilograms worth of goods without panting.

That day, when Mutu returned to the tribe with his group, a beastmen immediately came forward to report, “Chief, we found seven injured beastmen out in the woods.”

“From which tribe? And how were they hurt? ” Mutu asked as he walked inside.

“Three members of the lynx tribe, three from the fox tribe, and one from the bear tribe.”

Hearing the “fox tribe”, Mutu subconsciously looked at the fox beside him, who had an indifferent expression and no special reaction.

The beastman continued, “Their tribes were attacked by the avanis not long ago and fled all the way here, hoping for shelter.”

While speaking, a group of people came to the tribe center, and met those misfortune beastmen.

Mutu’s eyes first fell on the three foxes, led by a female beastman with a charming appearance and curvy figure. She had reddish-brown hair hanging freely on her chest, a reddish-brown tail swaying behind her, and her clothes were damaged, which made her a slightly sorry figure, but her beauty could not be concealed. Most of the male eyes around were on her.

Because of Shang Ke, many young lions have a strong interest in foxes, and he had countless admirers. Unfortunately, he was Mutu’s partner and others dare not touch him. Now there was another fox beastmen and it is also a beautiful young female! How can this not make the hot-blooded lions excited?

Snuggled up against this female fox were two fox kits who looked like twins but with different colors—one white and one red around the age of five to six. They looked around with big eyes, timid and curious.
