Wild wolves suddenly appearing on the outer fringes at a time like this could mean only two things: either an even more powerful apex predator had appeared deep in the mountains, or something had gone wrong with the mountain ecosystem, causing the population of herbivores to dwindle and leaving carnivores with fewer prey to hunt.
The wolf pack had no choice but to head outward to hunt and, at the same time, migrate across territories in search of a new habitat.
If it was the first scenario, the danger level for Li Da and the others heading up the mountain would increase drastically. If it was the second, it would be even worse; a wolf pack migrating to a new territory meant a far more perilous situation.
