Chapter 202 Big Bad Wolf

The number of mutant birds is much greater than that of the four-legged ones.

Small and common birds such as sparrows and magpies were crowded in the living room. There were also crows, parrots, owls, and even some less common birds such as thrushes, woodpeckers, and birds of prey that he couldn't name, all found places to nest in the living room.

He Rui guessed that it was because birds can fly, so the ones with wings suffered the least losses in the initial tsunami.

I thought all that was missing were bugs and fish.

There shouldn't be no mutated insects. I remember Jiang Sheng mentioned an incident of encountering insects eating people before.

But the insect was probably too small and his brother Ji didn't like it.

As for the fish, fortunately they are not close to the sea, and fish don’t have legs, otherwise they might be able to come here.

At that time, the three major types of mutant animals, aquatic, terrestrial and amphibious, will gather together, line up and wait to die.

He Rui caught a glimpse of a large black mass on the left that suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

The goat is gone.

He Rui quickly turned his head and stared blankly at the small animals that were originally lined up behind the goat. He took two steps forward unconsciously and looked up, waiting for his brother Ji, the living devil, to call his number.

He suddenly felt a little scared when he saw it.

I thought it was a blessing that he was not a mutant animal...

"Where are the sheep?" he asked.

The other party replied, "It is being devoured within the field."

Within the field?

Is there still a distinction between inside and outside? He Rui nodded blankly.

I thought it was not bad. The process of transforming mutated animals was not too bloody, and it was not as scary as killing live chickens in farms.

He Rui comforted himself, thinking that although the animals lined up in the room looked like a group of well-behaved and cute animals, it was possible that every animal present had eaten humans.

He shouldn't feel sorry for them either.

Apart from anything else, at least he could be sure that the group of birds had definitely eaten human corpses.

Listening to the noisy sounds outside the door, He Rui estimated that the team extended all the way from the house to the outside.

There are quite a few mutant animals.

It felt like there were more survivors than all the ones he had seen since the disaster began.

The room was packed, and He Rui didn't dare to move, so he could only lie cross-legged on the sofa.

The main reason was that he was afraid that if he stepped on something, the other party would be unhappy and might bite him again.

Looking at the pile of things, He Rui felt a little worried. He picked up his teacup and prepared to drink some water to calm his nerves.

Although he was a little nervous, he was not particularly anxious. After all, he had a protective umbrella by his side, which made him feel like Sun Wukong was guarding him.

Before the teacup reached his mouth, his hand was empty and the cup was taken away.

He Rui stared blankly at his brother Ji as he poured the tea very carefully and gave him another cup of hot water.

It was unclear whether the dust had been blown into the tea by the birds flapping their wings just now, or whether it had been replaced because it had gotten cold.

He lowered his head to blow on the tea, took a sip, and turned his gaze towards the gate. He saw a wolf that had just queued up and came in from the gate because of the disappearance of the big goat.

He Rui's eyes lit up and his gaze was fixed on the gray wolf's face.

Watching the wolf harassing Ji Changqing.

"Hey, Brother Ji, have I ever told you that I've always wanted to have a dog since I was a kid?"

The other party's tone was relatively calm, and he continued, "Really?"

He Rui inexplicably felt that his brother Ji's voice sounded a bit perfunctory.

Suddenly I remembered that this person mentioned before that when devouring mutant animals, it seems that if you focus more, your efficiency will be higher.

He finally remembered to observe people's expressions.

He glanced at his brother Ji's indifferent expression and decided not to disturb him any further.

So he just hummed and said nothing more.

He collapsed on the sofa, feeling a little sleepy, and continued to observe the big bad wolf.

I don’t know if that wolf was one of the ones that howled outside a few days ago.

It doesn't look too big. If it stands up, it is at most 1.5 meters tall.

Noticing his gaze, the wolf's brown eyes also turned to him, faintly baring its teeth at him.

He Rui suddenly realized that even though these mutant animals were controlled by his brother Ji to line up here, they could still reveal their inherently unruly tempers.

The more he looked at the fierce look, the more exciting it seemed to him.

As he and the mutant wolf, who was about to die, stared into each other's eyes, someone next to him suddenly asked, "What breed of dog do you like?"

"ah?"

He Rui was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to suddenly respond so bluntly. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, as for dogs, I like quite a lot of them. I just don't know if they are called the same thing. You might not recognize them if I tell you."

He Rui began to count the dogs he liked.

"Husky, Chinese native dog, German Shepherd, Doberman, Czech Wolfdog, Malinois... what else? These are the only ones I can think of at the moment. I have never raised a dog, but there are many that I want to raise.

When I was a child, my mother didn't allow me to raise a puppy. When my sister brought the puppy home, my mother forced her to give it to someone else.

When I grew up, my job required me to travel all over the world.

You might drive from the easternmost point of the domestic map to the westernmost point.

I don’t live in one place, so I just can’t keep a dog and never have one.”

According to the current situation, it is probably impossible for him to keep a dog in the future.

There are people outside who are starving to death, how can he have the nerve to keep a dog?

If he takes the dog out, all the survivors will probably want to steal his dog to make soup.

Besides, he is now living under someone else's roof.

He is a hindrance and is being protected by others, so how can he have the nerve to support another hindrance?

With his elbows resting on the armrest, He Rui propped up his chin and looked at the wolf, sighing, "It's so nice. I want to touch it."

"Touch it." The person next to him replied.

He Rui sat up a little straighter when he heard this, "Really? Can I touch it? It's not dangerous?"

He stood up eagerly, then something came into his mind and he became a little more sober. Then he gave up in an instant and sat back down.

She said listlessly, "Forget it, Brother Ji, I won't touch it anymore. I'm afraid if I develop feelings for it, it will be hard to deal with. Don't wait and see it being swallowed by you, it will make me feel uncomfortable again."

Seeing that the idiot really liked the wolf and couldn't bear to take his eyes off it, Ji Changqing hesitated for a moment and made an irrational decision, "You can keep it." Although there are risks.

He Rui refused decisively without hesitation.

"Forget it, this guy might have eaten people before, I don't want to keep it.

Besides, didn't you say mutant animals are more ferocious? If one day it rebels and eats me, where can I go to seek justice? Forget it, I won't keep it."

He Rui simply looked away and stopped looking at the wolf.

Ji Changqing beside him agreed, "Your choice is right. Keeping this kind of thing around is always a hidden danger."

He Rui thought of alien viruses.

If the mutated animals evolved due to infection with a virus, they should carry pathogens in their bodies.

If he touched or was bitten by these small animals, he would probably be infected by the powerful alien virus.
