Super Zoo-Chapter 647 - 638: Disaster Strikes from the Sky

You have Divine Skill, I have technology! No matter how powerful an animal's instinctual abilities are, or how well they can blend into nature, they cannot escape the tracking of human technology.

It didn't take long for the team composed of the zoo and the police to discover traces of the animals on the edge of the mountain range.

By the banks of a nearly dried-up creek were footprints of various sizes, indicating that a group of different species had stopped here for some time to drink water.

"We can confirm that the footprints include those of pandas, grizzly bears, elk, and others," the veterinarian said unhurriedly, holding a bottle of ban lan gen drink.

This time, the leader of the zoo team was the veterinarian.

As an animal doctor, his understanding of animals was actually superior to that of the general staff, a knowledge extending from the outside in, from skin to bone. His leadership meant that he could provide timely assistance to any animal that became unwell in the wild, and on the other hand, treating humans and treating animals wasn't much different. With the many insects, rodents, and ants in the mountains, he could also be of help if any member of the search team felt unwell.

Of course, Suming didn't dare to share the latter consideration with the police. As for the zoo staff, they had long been accustomed to having someone who treated animals also look after their health.

Suming had some conflicting feelings about the search for these animals.

Having worked with animals for a long time, he could understand their desire for freedom and an unconfined life.

Having never had such an experience before, it was one thing, but once they managed to overcome the initial hardships of life in the mountains, they would quickly become accustomed to living in the wild.

If it were a group of ordinary captive animals, without human help, it'd be difficult to achieve.

But among these animals, there were two pandas that had been engaging with spiritual power for a long time, and that changed the situation.

Once they got used to living freely in the wild, if they were caught and brought back to the zoo, it would be like imprisonment for humans. It would be an invisible harm to both the animals' mental and physical health.

However, the problem was that to be fair to the animals, humans had to make sacrifices, and that would not be fair to Ocean Park. After all, these animals were purchased at great cost by Ocean Park. It wasn't their fault, so why should they suffer losses?

Then there were those two pandas with significant importance.

Suming was hopeful that they could find the animals quickly, but at the same time, he wished they could escape human capture.

So if Suming led the team himself, just a slight bias in his stance could either help the animals evade human capture or allow humans to catch them quickly.

Driven by this inner conflict, he chose to remain neutral, letting the veterinarian lead the team. Whether they could catch the animals would be left to fate.

…

"According to the depth of the footprints in the mud, and the freshness of the surrounding mud, the animals must have left less than a day ago," analyzed a forensic expert with knowledge of animal behavior. "Also, we haven't found any animal feces, which indicates that they haven't eaten yet, and on an empty stomach, they wouldn't have gone far..."

"Woof woof woof…" A police dog began barking furiously in the direction of the deeper part of the forest.

"This is the direction, comrades, let's push on! Chase!"

…

Humans chase dogs, separated by a mountain range; dogs chase dogs, separated by a layer of gauze... Relying on its sharp sense of smell, the police dog had found the right direction, and less than two kilometers from the tracking team, on a small hill, the group of escapees were gathered together.

Four lynxes, both distressed and annoyed, were squatting aside, watching helplessly as this group of uninvited guests devoured the food they had only caught that morning.

The leader of the grizzly bears, bloodied mouth and fangs bared, was munching on a leg while sitting beside the lynxes, eyeing them with malicious intent.

Lynxes are like big cats, larger than domestic cats but similar in appearance, resembling a mutated super-sized cat. An adult lynx can weigh about 50 kilograms and is considered a medium-sized predator, with fighting prowess on par with leopards.

In ancient Huaxia, nobles had the habit of taming lynxes for hunting, and this practice peaked during the Tang Dynasty. Nobles, both men and women, loved to keep these dangerous creatures, and especially during the Tang Dynasty, the fierce-natured princesses and county princesses wouldn't dare show up at hunting parties without a lynx by their side.

Generally preferring colder climates, lynxes are seldom seen within the Qinling Mountains. The two adult lynxes of this family, for some reason, had settled on the edges of the Qinling Mountains years ago, where there were hardly any natural predators. They had become the kings of the local forest in a short time and had been living a prosperous life, growing plump and robust, and even had a set of offspring.

Those good days came to an abrupt end that morning.

A band of ravenous intruders had encroached on their territory.

The father lynx was the first to notice a Pekingese dog running around like a headless fly. He was taken aback, having never seen such a fluffy creature. Yet, clearly, in terms of both size and speed, it was merely an insignificant competitor!

The critical point was it looked delicious!

Despite having just captured a good stash of prey back at their den, more food was always welcome. Without hesitation, the father lynx launched an attack.

The tiny Pekingese was petrified on the spot, legs trembling like chaff in the breeze, eyes wide with terror at the approach of the large monster from the treetops. With a pitiful whine, a warm and steaming puddle of urine squirted out in fear...

Just as the lynx was about to pounce on the Pekingese, a long red arm appeared out of nowhere. The arm stretched out effortlessly, snatched up the Pekingese, and leaped upwards with lightning speed.

"Ooo ooo ooo!"

The red-haired gorilla, one hand clutching the Pekingese and the other swinging from the treetop, bared its teeth at the lynx in a challenge, as if to say, what the hell do you think you're doing?

The lynx paused for a moment, what kind of monster was this?

It looked like the Monkey King from the neighboring mountain, but it seemed way too big, didn't it?

Could it be the Monkey King's grandfather arriving?

But the color of the fur was all wrong, why was it red? Could it be that the Monkey King's real father was some red-haired Wang from deeper in the mountains?

The lynx son was a bit bewildered.

Confused as he was, he could not abandon the food within his grasp, no matter if the opponent was a monkey or Old Wang!

This was a matter of survival principles and bottom lines!

Dealing with such a large red-haired monkey was no easy task; the lynx dad estimated that he himself might not have full confidence in defeating the opponent, let alone stopping it from escaping.

He let out a low growl, sending a signal to his wife and children not too far away.

The lynx son was a hunting expert, with his family's small team coordination being second to none!

The red-haired and large baboon was the vanguard scouting ahead for the escaped animals; the mountain roads were tough to navigate. Apart from the bald eagle, it was the baboons capable of leaping through the trees and a few small pet dogs that were the fastest. The baboon was hanging from the treetop, equally curious as it sized up this lynx son.

What is that thing? It looks really frightening, and it seems very fierce too!

The mountains are really not safe, thankfully we got tow panda kings leading us!

As it pondered, the tree branch the baboon clung to began to tremble gently. An adult female lynx, not much smaller than the lynx dad, had silently climbed up the tree, stealthily advancing towards the baboon aloft.

"Woah!" the red-haired baboon was stunned, its mouth gaping wide in utter bewilderment.

What to do now? There's a big monster on the ground and another slightly smaller big monster in the tree; trapped between the two, there's no escape.

I'm just a baboon, not Lei Zhenzi; I don't have wings!

Where to run now?

It didn't have wings, but there were those who did.

A cry of an eagle pierced the sky, and the bald vulture that had been the butt of jokes descended from the heavens, its golden-splitting talons aiming for the female lynx's head!

This was an adult vulture, with a wingspan of one and a half meters that suddenly blocked out the sunlight, overshadowing everything.

The lynx mother on the branch was startled.

On the ground, she might not have been afraid of the vulture, but in the treetop, she had to focus most of her attention on balancing. She also had to be wary of the red-haired baboon, which had well-developed pectoral muscles and fists as big as mortar bowls—being punched in the face by one was probably very uncomfortable.

Before the vulture could land a scratch, the agile lynx mother leapt down from the tree!

The vulture landed smoothly on the treetop, eyeing the lynx couple alongside the baboon hanging beneath its feet.

Damn it, they brought reinforcements?!

The lynx couple had ruled this territory for many years, but this was the first time they were thwarted, leaving them quite frustrated.

You have backup, and we have ours!

Two slightly younger lynxes stepped on the dry leaves, appearing in the forest.

Although the young lynx siblings were not as experienced in hunting as their parents, they were at the peak of their physical and energetic prime, ready to take on the toughest of fights.

Four against two, the little Pekingese dog didn't count as combat strength— the lynx family seemed to have a sure hold on victory.

Strangely, the other side didn't seem to be planning to run away.

A bunch of bumpkin outsiders, two monsters that haven't seen the world, let's give you a taste of the lynx family's fighting prowess and teach you a harsh lesson!

When it came to reinforcements, the red-haired baboon grinned ear to ear, its big yellow teeth flashing as it howled at the lynx family.

Rustling and crashing sounds...

Noises of all kinds came from all directions in the forest, as animals that had been seen and those that hadn't popped their heads out of the woods.

An American leopard with combat ability in no way inferior leaped onto a branch, tensing its back in a hunting stance, ready to strike...

The foolish deer was a bit scared but still mustered the courage to lower its head, aiming its fork-like antlers in the direction of the lynx...

Two armadillos clad in armor rolled out like metal balls...

...

When the grizzly bear boss appeared, the lynx family was completely dumbfounded!

What was going on? Had an army arrived?!

Amidst the barking of a bunch of pet dogs, two adorable-looking dwarf horses walked out at a leisurely pace.

Straddled on the horses' backs were two bears with black and white patterns all over their bodies...

Pandas?! The lynx family had once encountered a group of these creatures deep in the Qinling Mountains and had been thoroughly taught a lesson, leaving a deep impression.

Yingying spat out a long piece of straw from her mouth viciously, gesturing grandly at the lynx family with her small paw.

Brothers and sisters, strike down this bunch of losers with me!
