Chapter 176: One less lioness
However, how could they be Chu Ye's opponents? As long as the lioness approached Chu Ye, she would be knocked to the ground with a slap from her powerful claws.
Although these eight female lions are united, they are also very powerful. But they were completely vulnerable to the more powerful Chu Ye.
Originally, when Nika saw that Laura and the others were going to attack Chu Ye together, she also wanted to lead Feifei and the others to help Chu Ye.
But when they saw Chu Ye's extremely powerful strength, they felt that it was unnecessary for them to go up to help. Even if these lionesses unite, they are no match for Chu Ye.
So, Nika and Feifei just stood aside and watched the battle, and did not go up to help.
It was more than enough for Chu Ye to deal with eight female lions by himself, and he didn't need Nika and the others to help him at all.
Laura and the other female lions also felt that they were "strong in numbers". Chu Ye should be able to be defeated.
Under normal circumstances, three female lions can almost handle one male lion. After all, male lions are only one-third larger than female lions.
If three female lions attack one male lion, the male lion may not be able to win. After all, a male lion has limited power and cannot defeat many female lions.
Sometimes a group of hyenas can defeat a male lion. This is because there are more hyenas.
It's just that situations like Chu Ye's may be relatively rare. In the savanna, no male lion can compete with eight female lions.
Chu Ye is not an ordinary lion, but a lion with super powerful abilities. As long as Chu Ye wants to fight, few other animals can compete with him.
Laura and the other eight female lions had no idea how powerful Chu Ye was. I just feel that Chu Ye is taller and stronger. There are eight female lions among them. Under normal circumstances, Chu Ye would not be able to defeat them.
But Chu Ye has great strength. He can defeat a powerful buffalo leader by himself, let alone these eight female lions. Of course he can defeat them.
In this way, within a few minutes, Chu Ye bit these eight female lions with bruises all over their bodies, but he himself did not suffer any injuries.
Although Laura and the others are very ferocious, when they bite Chu Ye, they can't even leave any blood marks, and if Chu Ye bites them, they will be able to split their skin and flesh.
Since then, Laura and the others can no longer stand it. It felt that if things continued like this, the eight female lions would be killed by Chu Ye.
There was no other way, Laura decided to retreat.
'Ouch! ——'
Laura saw that the eight female lions were no match for Chu Ye and would soon be defeated by Chu Ye. She quickly roared, turned around and ran away.
The other lionesses all obeyed Laura's command. When they saw Laura running away, they quickly followed suit.
After Chu Ye saw them running away, he chased them for a while. However, he was just pretending, and he didn't want to kill them all.
If Chu Ye really wanted to kill these eight female lions, none of them would be able to escape today.
After watching the eight female lions escape, Chu Ye returned to Nika and the others.
Nika and the others looked at the domineering Chu Ye and admired him very much. They never imagined that Chu Ye would be so powerful that one male lion could defeat eight female lions.
After being active for a long time just now, Chu Ye felt very tired. Of course, he also felt a little hungry.
After Nika and the others hunted this warthog, they waited there for Chu Ye, but they did not come to eat.
After Chu Ye drove away the eight female lions, he returned to Nika. Looking at the warthog on the ground, Chu Ye started eating it without any courtesy.
Of course, Chu Ye only ate the internal organs that the lions loved most, and then gave the rest of the meat to Nika and the others.
A warthog in front of a group of lions is just a not-so-luxurious meal. Chu Ye, Nika and the others quickly ate up the warthog until only some broken bones were left.
After everyone finished eating the warthog, they returned to the camp.
At this time, the temperature is getting higher and higher, and it is no longer suitable for activities. Chu Ye and Nika lay down under the shade of the tree to rest again.
After several lion cubs saw the lionesses coming back, they came out of the warthog hole not far away. They were eager to come and nurse.
After Nika and the others saw the lion cubs, they were very affectionate and immediately began to breastfeed the lion cubs.
Chu Ye lay down in the shade under this big tree to rest. However, while resting, Chu Ye thought about something else.
Chu Ye was thinking that even though he had defeated the eight female lions. But they belong to King Arthur. I defeated someone else's wife and even bit them. Will they be angry?
Chu Ye has human thoughts, and he always likes to look at problems from a human perspective. The last time he himself went to investigate the truth of this matter because of the injuries on Nika and others. Finally, he found the real culprit and taught the eight lionesses a lesson.
However, after the eight female lions go back, will they talk about the beatings they received? This was something that made Chu Ye a little uneasy.
Although Chu Ye felt that he was powerful and could defeat that lion king. But he didn't want to duel with other lion kings for nothing.
Chu Ye was thinking about this all day. He knew that he had to face something. In this prairie, it is a place where the winner takes all. Only by constantly defeating other competitors can you survive.
The next morning, when Chu Ye was still sleeping, he was awakened by the roar of a lion.
'Roar! ——'
Upon hearing this sound, Chu Yema stood up immediately.
Nika and the other lionesses were also very nervous. They also came to Chu Ye, and then looked around, wanting to know where the danger came from. After all, this sound heralds an invasion of lions.
Chu Ye stood under the shade of a tree and looked into the distance, but due to the deep spiky grass on the ground and some dense bushes, he could not see where the invading lion was.
'No, I have to look up the tree, but I can't see anything below. '
Chu Ye couldn't see where the invading lion was on the ground, so he had to climb up the big tree.
However, after Chu Ye climbed to the big tree, he didn't see any shadow of the lion.
'What's going on? There's no lion invasion! Did I hear wrongly? 'Chu Ye felt a little strange and wondered if he had heard wrongly.
But when he saw the nervous looks on the other lionesses' faces, he knew that he must have heard correctly. There must be a male lion invading their territory.
'It's really strange. Do any stray lions dare to invade my Chu Ye territory now? '
Chu Ye knew that he had competed with many stray lions before. Most of the wandering lions on this prairie knew how powerful Chu Ye was, and they didn't dare to provoke Chu Ye at all.
For this period of time, Chu Ye basically didn't have to patrol his territory. Because no stray lion dared to invade his territory.
But this morning, it was a little strange that a male lion invaded Chu Ye's territory, as if it didn't know how powerful Chu Ye was.
It's just that Chu Ye looked at the big tree for a long time and didn't see any lion entering his territory. It was like he was hallucinating.
'Forget it, maybe I heard wrong. Chu Ye had no choice. Since he couldn't see the lion invading, he had no choice but to get down from the big tree again.
Nika and Feifei also felt strange. They seemed to have heard a male lion invading. But I didn't find anything unusual for a long time.
Generally speaking, if a male lion wants to invade a certain lion group, it will roar directly towards the core of the lion group. Go directly to challenge the male lions of this pride, instead of just roaring on someone else's territory.
But Chu Ye and Nika waited for another long time, but there was no movement. No male lion was seen coming to them.
Nika and the others waited for a long time, and when they saw that there was no movement, they didn't take it to heart.
Yesterday, Nika and the others only hunted one warthog. Although everyone ate some meat. But one warthog cannot feed the entire pride at all. At most, it can prevent them from feeling particularly hungry.
Nika saw for a long time that no male lion came in front of them, so he felt that nothing was wrong. So, I thought I would go hunting.
This period of time in the morning is basically the time when lions hunt during the dry season. The lionesses go hunting almost every morning just like going to work. No matter whether you succeed or not, you must do this.
Unless they hunt a large prey such as buffalo, which can feed the entire pride, the female lions may rest for a few days before hunting again.
If only small prey such as warthogs and gazelles are hunted, it is impossible for all the lions in the pride to be full.
Therefore, when the lions hunt small prey, they can only maintain a normal life. But you still have to hunt when you are not particularly hungry. You cannot wait until you are very hungry to hunt.
This morning, Nika heard a lion's roar. But after waiting for a long time, no male lions invaded.
So, Nika went to hunt in his own territory as usual.
Chu Ye still stayed to take care of these lion cubs.
But after Nika and the others left, Chu Ye felt strange, as if something might happen.
However, Chu Ye thought again, those eight domineering lionesses had been defeated by him, and no one dared to bully their 'wives' anymore.
As a result, Chu Ye felt that nothing would happen, and Nika and the others could hunt safely.
But when Chu Ye thought about the roar of a lion he just heard, he became a little worried again. He was worried about whether there would really be male lions moving around in his territory.
However, he and Nika waited for a long time and no male lion appeared, which meant that there should be no male lion in their territory.
'I'm overthinking it. If there really was a lion just now, it must have been scared away by my appearance! '
Chu Ye felt that the roar of a lion just now was just a wandering lion passing by, wanting to invade Chu Ye's territory. But when it saw Chu Ye's tall and strong appearance, it felt that it was no match for Chu Ye.
So, this stray lion just roared in Chu Ye's territory, then turned around and ran away.
Chu Ye felt that his explanation made some sense. After all, in this area, no one of the lions who had competed with Chu Ye dared to approach Chu Ye again.
However, even if a lion invaded, and then saw Chu Ye's tall appearance, he turned around and ran away. Then Chu Ye should have seen the shadow of its escape. After all, after Chu Ye heard the roar of the lion, he looked on the ground for a while, feeling that he couldn't see the shadow of the lion, and immediately climbed up the big tree again.
This period is not long, only about ten seconds. In such a short period of time, it was impossible for the invading lion to disappear into the territory instantly. Even if it ran away immediately, it would definitely be seen by Chu Ye who climbed up the big tree.
Chu Ye couldn't explain this matter for a while. He just thought that he didn't look carefully. Or maybe there is something wrong with the direction you judged. The stray male lion happens to be not in the direction you are observing, but in the opposite direction.
After Nika and the others left, Chu Ye lay on the ground and thought for a while. He felt that he might have thought too much. There will be no problem with Nika and the others. He has already taught the eight female lions a lesson, and they will not dare to rob Nika and the others of their prey again.
So, Chu Ye played with the little lions under the big tree again, and no longer worried about Nika and the others.
Just like that, about an hour later, Nica and the others came back.
It's just that they all look downcast. Apparently, they didn't catch their prey.
It is normal to say that no prey was caught. After all, lions do not succeed every time they hunt. Their hunting success rate is only about 30%.
This data is in the rainy season. If it is in the dry season, the data will be smaller.
Just like now, it is the dry season in the prairie, and the success rate of hunting by Nika may be less than 20%.
Therefore, Chu Ye was already used to the fact that Nika and the others often went out to hunt but could not catch much prey.
But every time they come back, Nika and the others are not very depressed. After all, they are all used to it.
But today is different. Nika and the others seem to be very depressed, and all of them look sad.
'What's going on, what's going on with them? 'Chu Ye didn't know what was going on for a while.
But suddenly, Chu Ye saw a problem. One of the lionesses was missing. There were six female lions, but now one was missing.
