Reborn as a tiger cub, I'm too weak, so I can only rely on self-discipline.

Chapter 79 Another Inspection of the Territory

Thirty-five days after birth.

It turns out that evolved pine trees do not eat meat.

Even though the Cangnian family had consumed the highly beneficial, evolved meat of the male wild boar, it did not arouse any interest in them.

The evolved meat, weighing over 400 kilograms, hung there all night without losing a single bit.

This put Cangnian at ease.

After all, the most favorable environment in this large habitat is the largest open space where the Evolutionary Pine Tree is located.

Located near the river and with a waterfall not far away, it's easy to catch fish.

Moreover, it makes it easier to practice climbing skills—other trees aren't this tall, and going up and down is too troublesome.

What surprised Cangnian was that his digestive skill, which evolved along with his meat-eating skill, allowed him to digest food much faster.

The evolved meat I ate yesterday was digested and stored as energy in just a few hours.

The arduous task of carrying the meat strips up and down the tree consumed a lot of Cang Nian's energy.

Additionally, it's worth mentioning that the female wild boar is undoubtedly an evolved creature, although its level of evolution is lower than that of the male wild boar. One kilogram of evolved meat can increase the proficiency of the meat-eating skill by five levels.

Therefore, Cang Nian could rest assured that the meat of the sow could be preserved for several days, and even without salt to marinate it, it could be successfully air-dried.

Ouch~!

Early in the morning, Tiger Dad let out a loud tiger roar full of energy.

Then, it ran up to Cangnian and Hudi and barked.

Upon hearing Tiger Dad's shout, Tiger Brother's previously joyful face immediately fell.

Because Tiger Dad meant to take Cangnian and Tiger Brother on another tour of the territory.

Previously, due to an accident involving a wild boar family, the Cangnian family's patrol of their territory was forced to be suspended shortly after it began.

Now, of course, we must continue the patrol from last time!

Tiger Brother was lazy and didn't want to patrol the territory.

Although Tiger Brother had a lot of fun when marking the territory, he didn't want to go patrolling the territory because it involved a long walk.

In addition, the wild boar family had made it even more resistant, as it had been living in fear for quite some time.

Pa~!

[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (998/10000)]

Woo~!

However, after Cangnian showed his brother the deep care he had for his younger brother, Tiger Brother responded very actively to Tiger Dad's call to patrol the territory.

……

Not long after, Tiger Dad brought the two little ones to the spot where they had first encountered the wild boar family.

Many trees here were broken and trampled by the two large wild boars, leaving the area in a state of chaos.

However, this enormous threat has already been resolved through the collaborative efforts of Tiger.

Because there was a lot of meat in the house, and it needed to be guarded by someone strong enough, the tiger mom stayed at home.

An adult female Siberian tiger will generally not have any problems unless it encounters a family of wild boars, which is a very dangerous creature.

During his inspection of the territory, Cangnian was not idle either.

Now, the speed at which the one adult and two children patrol their territory depends on the speed of the younger tiger.

However, as time went by, Tiger Brother developed better and better, and his body became stronger and stronger. In addition, he often ate evolved meat, so he was able to run long ago.

However, it is still much slower than the running speed of an adult tiger, let alone keeping up with the speed of a tiger.

Therefore, in order not to waste time, Cangnian would sometimes climb trees and sometimes leap, and kill a few small prey along the way to improve his proficiency in his main skills.

Even Tiger Brother wouldn't eat the small animals that were killed, let alone Cang Nian.

With so much meat waiting to be eaten at home, and the most evolved meat I've ever encountered, why would I need to eat small animals?

Evolution not only increases nutrient density, but also improves texture and flavor.

After getting used to eating evolved meat, especially highly evolved meat like this, other meats taste bland.

After completing the rounds of inspection, it was noon.

Tiger Dad was quite satisfied with this inspection.

Apart from the wild boar family, there was no other creature within a 15-kilometer radius that could threaten their family.

During the journey, only two lynxes were found as large carnivores.

This is quite normal, given that the herbivores here are overpopulated. If there were other large carnivores, the scene wouldn't be like this.

Animals like wild boars, which primarily eat plants, will not significantly impact the herbivores in an area, no matter how large they are. However, once they grow large enough, they can threaten apex predators like tigers.

Although lynxes are classified as large carnivores, they are actually much smaller than tigers, weighing only twenty or thirty kilograms.

The tiger cub is now only slightly smaller than the two lynxes.

What's even more encouraging is that the herbivores here are growing really well; the various deer are plump and large, and their populations are quite large.

In such an environment, even when Cangnian and Hudi grow up, the family of four can still live together and meet their food needs.

After one round of inspection, Tiger Brother was exhausted.

There was no way around it; as an adult male Siberian tiger, the father tiger's daily patrol route exceeded one hundred kilometers.

This is nothing to Cang Nian, who possesses the skill of sprinting and has extremely high endurance.

But for a chubby little boy like Tiger, it's quite a challenge.

But in the end, Tiger Brother already weighed over 20 kilograms, and the benefits of the evolved meat to his body were obvious. The journey that took three days to complete when they migrated here could now be completed in half a day by gritting his teeth.

However, once home, Tiger Brother smelled the evolved meat that made his mouth water, so despite his exhaustion, he ran to the meat and began to tear and devour it.

Cangnian also consumed a lot of energy and began to eat as well.

……

Thirty-six days after birth.

Early in the morning, Tiger Dad took the two little ones out for a mountain patrol again.

Patrolling their territory is a daily task for tigers.

Otherwise, if they don't use their scent to mark their territory, unsuspecting members of their kind might wander into their territory.

Whether it's someone coming to steal a mate or to kill their cubs, it's something no male tiger can accept.

Tiger Brother was still complaining incessantly.

Even in his old age, he never forgets to exercise.

But at this moment, Cang Nian's movements suddenly stopped.

"This seems to be the spot where I threw a piece of prey yesterday..."

Cang Nian looked at the marks on the ground where heavy objects had been placed, and his expression became serious.

Because the time was so recent, he remembered it quite clearly.

At that time, he killed a fat rabbit weighing three kilograms and just left it there.

But now, the fat rabbit is gone, and a 30-centimeter-wide indentation remains!

This brought back memories from more than half a month ago!
