"Squeak~"

Hearing Jiang An's praise, the little turtle became even happier, shaking its head and eagerly adding, "Coo-coo~ Mommy, Little Mouse and I haven't stopped for a moment from beginning to end! We've been trying our best to find and pick up those arrows scattered everywhere!"

After saying that, the little turtle even puffed out its chest, looking proud and self-satisfied.

Hearing what the little turtle said, Jiang An smiled with satisfaction and praised it again, "Really? That's amazing! You two are my little heroes!"

As Jiang An muttered to herself, her hands moved swiftly, quickly gathering all the arrows stuck in the turtle's back and stuffing them into her backpack.

There was no time to tidy up the messy arrows; time was of the essence.

After clearing the entire battlefield, Jiang An did not immediately step into the underground safe house.

She first strode swiftly up the arrow tower, then took out a full 1,000 arrows from her backpack and placed them inside.

While this arrow tower offers some level of defense, it also has a significant drawback – it can only store a maximum of 1,000 arrows, and each shot requires firing 100 arrows at once.

Once the inventory is depleted, it must be replenished.

After completing this task, Jiang An rushed to the camel shed without stopping.

The camel was huddled in a corner, looking restless and agitated, clearly quite frightened by the sounds of the fierce battle.

Seeing this, Jiang An quickly stepped forward and gently comforted the camel. After a while, when she saw the camel begin to enjoy the food she had placed in the trough, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

Back in the safe house, Jiang An hurriedly did a quick wash.

Then, she called over the little turtle and the little mouse, and they sat around the table together and began to feast.

The reason they ate in such a hurry was that there was an even more important task waiting for them to complete: to continue venturing deeper into this vast desert and constantly searching for and collecting various valuable resources.

After finishing their meal, Jiang An quickly cleared away the dishes and put them in the kitchen.

Then, she called out directly, "Alright, little turtle, little mouse, it's time for us to set off!"

Once on land, the first thing Jiang An did was to quickly walk to the camel shed to lead the camels.

When she arrived at the camel shed, she first carefully examined the feeding trough and water trough.

The places that should have been filled with food and water were now completely empty, clearly having been eaten clean by the camels.

Seeing this, Jiang An felt relieved, thinking: It seems that these camels were not frightened and are in good condition.

Next, she carefully stored the safe house inside the light screen, and then nimbly mounted the camel's back.

After settling in, Jiang An gently waved the reins and called out, "Let's go!"

Before she finished speaking, she pulled hard on the reins, urging the camel to proceed in the originally planned direction.

This journey of exploration, full of unknowns, went exceptionally smoothly from the start, without encountering a single animal along the way.

Just as Jiang An was secretly rejoicing, a painful wail suddenly reached her ears.

"Moo moo~" The sound was extremely pitiful.

Moreover, the mournful cry sounded strangely familiar to Jiang An. After a moment's thought, she quickly realized that it was the sound of the Iron-Patterned Bull that had been fiercely fighting them in the safe house.

However, the sound now seemed even more painful than before.

"Could it be that the herd of Iron-striped Cattle we encountered before wasn't their entire herd?" Jiang An pondered to himself. "Right, if it were a complete herd, how could there be no calves? Every herd must have offspring!"

Thinking about this, Jiang An became increasingly excited.

Without hesitation, she turned the reins, urging her camel to speed up and gallop towards the direction from which the sound came. As the distance closed, the heart-wrenching cries grew clearer and louder…

Jiang An stared wide-eyed at what was happening before her in disbelief.

She nimbly leaped down from the tall camel's back and landed steadily on the sand.

Not far from her, a lone female iron-striped ox was struggling painfully, trying to complete the arduous task of giving birth.

It was obvious that it had been ruthlessly abandoned here by its own kind because it was about to give birth.

As time passed, the cow's originally pitiful moans gradually became weaker and weaker, as if the flame of life was slowly going out.

Clearly, due to the prolonged failure to give birth, its body was extremely exhausted, and its strength was almost completely depleted.

Jiang An was extremely anxious and hurriedly reached for the storage ring on her waist.

With a flash of light, a basin appeared in her hand.

Jiang An poured most of the water into the basin, and then poured in two bottles of green leaf juice.

Jiang An moved with lightning speed, arriving in front of the cow in the blink of an eye.

She gently placed the basin filled with water and green leaf juice on the ground, afraid of disturbing the mother who was struggling on the brink of life and death.

Sure enough, the cow, who had been in despair, showed a hint of surprise in her eyes the moment she saw the water source.

It first looked up at Jiang An warily, as if assessing whether this person posed a threat to it.

However, after sensing that Jiang An meant no harm, it lowered its head and began to drink heartily.

Before long, the cow had drunk the entire basin of water.

The miraculous green leaf juice quickly took effect in the cow's body, continuously replenishing its lost energy.

Finally, accompanied by a heart-wrenching roar, a tiny calf, after overcoming countless hardships, successfully came into this world!

As soon as the calf hit the ground, it was soaking wet, as if it were covered by a transparent veil.

At this moment, the cow beside her gazes lovingly at her newborn calf, her eyes filled with tenderness and joy.

It first carefully licked the sticky mucus off the calf's body little by little.

Immediately afterwards, the cow lowered her head without hesitation and began to devour the placenta. The whole process was swift and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.

Just a few seconds later, an astonishing and amazing miracle happened without warning—this seemingly fragile calf, with its innate tenacity and perseverance, slowly and steadily stood up from the soft sand!

Jiang An stood quietly not far away, gazing intently at the heartwarming scene before her.

While the cow is focused on enjoying the placenta, the calf stands up, comes to its mother's side, snuggles close, and eagerly suckles its first taste of milk.

Its tiny mouth opened and closed, making a soft sucking sound that sounded like heavenly music.

Just then, a bright light flashed in Jiang An's eyes like lightning.

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed through her mind, and she instantly realized an important issue: the cow had just given birth, and its body must be full of fresh milk, and it was pure, natural milk! Wasn't this a ready-made source of high-quality milk for the future?
