Chapter 29

# The nerve damage of war beasts can be repaired! #

# 70.5% vs. 69.8% #

# Beak Zoo issues another mental evaluation report #

As the second video was broadcast, the hot searches on Star Network kept changing. In less than ten minutes, the top five had all been replaced.

Just now, an expert said that the medical community has long since determined that nerve trauma is irreversible, but in less than three minutes, the Beek Zoo told everyone that it is reversible, and it can drop by 0.7% in just one day!

Not to mention how terrifying a 0.7% drop in a day is, even if it only drops 0.1% a day, it at least shows that the damage value can indeed be reduced!

Many veterinarians were blown away, and the official website of the Federal War Beast Association was about to be @-exploded!

While people online were still furiously analyzing the contents of the three mental evaluation reports from the Beek Zoo, Mu Ling was almost going crazy inside the Beek Zoo.

Her phone had been ringing for almost five minutes, and not only hers, but also Brother Wei and Brother Xiang's phones had been ringing.

The people who called were either familiar clerks from the Forestry Bureau of Shenwang Star, or tourists from the Capital Technical Logistics Department who had come for team building before. When those tourists left, many of them added Mu Ling's contact information, and some even added Wei Li and Xiang Bie. Now they all came.

Mu Ling answered their questions anxiously: "Yes, the appraisal report is true, our instrument is not broken! It is 99% new!"

"Yes, it was 70 yesterday, and it's 69 today. The medication I take is just ordinary nerve-stabilizing medication. The dosage? I made my own. I mainly take Manganese Xin Capsules and Siqing Oral Liquid..."

"Rejection? Qilin doesn't reject medicine. Just pry open its mouth and pour the capsules and oral solution down its throat. Don't dilute it with food, it won't be easily absorbed..."

"Huh? Why not post one video instead of two? This... that... I was just thinking, can I add another video? I've been so busy lately and haven't had time to shoot any new videos. I originally planned to post only one video, but then I saw that netizens had almost chosen the Qilin's burial site, so I was so scared that I quickly posted a second one..."

"Yes, we will conduct daily appraisals, but we won't post videos every day. We'll probably post once a week. Normally, our account will mainly post videos of small animals. We're about to open, and many of these animals haven't been featured yet..."

"Ah, you guys are coming for another team building? Sorry, we're not doing a soft opening. We're fully focused on preparing for the official opening. You can come back after the official opening..."

After making more than a dozen calls in a row, Mu Ling's mouth was dry. She was so tired that she drank a large glass of water!

Wei Li finally hung up the phone and looked at the director and asked, "Director, are you going to send out Lightning's appraisal report yet?"

Mu Ling waved her hands quickly: "No more, no more. Lightning's rate was 65.1% yesterday and 62% today. The decrease is even greater. If I send it out, they will definitely call me again..."

Xiang Bie turned off his own optical computer and simply ignored the call. Then, while tidying up the wires on the table, he said, "This is a good opportunity for publicity."

Mu Ling was about to cry: "What's the point of promoting? They're not here to travel, they're all here to buy medicine from me! They even want me to hold a medical exchange meeting... I never expected that the achievement I couldn't achieve as a pharmaceutical researcher before would be realized by opening a zoo. But I don't have time for an exchange meeting. I have to go to the back mountain to work for the military tomorrow!"

When the military borrowed the war beasts, didn't they say they would subsidize them at 10,000 interstellar coins per beast per hour? Mu Ling calculated that on the first morning, Qilin and Lightning went together, worked for four hours, and earned 80,000 yuan. In the afternoon of the same day, only Lightning went, worked for four hours, and earned 40,000 yuan. On the second day, only Lightning went as well, working eight hours a day and earning 80,000 yuan. In just two days, they earned 200,000 yuan in subsidies. Adding tomorrow's day, they would earn at least 80,000 yuan, which is 280,000 yuan!

With a profit of 280,000 yuan in three days, plus the 150,000 yuan dowry from Pimi, Mu Ling's wallet is now bulging. She's full of confidence and is eager to upgrade the park's infrastructure before the official opening! Supermarket out of stock? Buy! Scenic area out of staff? Hire! No rest stop on the mountain? Build one!

Be rich and be willful!

Mu Ling was still thinking about her 430,000 yuan. Wei Li beside her asked curiously, "But Director, can Qilin and Lightning really be cured in the future? These nerve-relieving drugs have been fed to war beasts before, but they didn't get any better. Why did they work this time?"

Mu Ling explained to him, "First of all, medicine is definitely useful. Useless medicine wouldn't be invented. But why can't war beasts take good medicine that's useful? Let me put it this way. For mental illnesses, medicine is only auxiliary. Equally important is the animal's psychology."

Wei Li was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Mu Ling asked, "When you go to the doctor, does he tell you to stay cheerful, reduce anxiety, and go to bed and get up early so that your endocrine system and hormone levels are normal? And then, with medication, your illness will heal faster?"

Wei Li nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, that's what the doctor said!"

Mu Ling said, "The same principle applies to animals. For example, medicine can cure an animal by 1% every day, but the animal's condition worsens by 2% every day. Doesn't that make it look like the condition is getting worse every day and never getting better?"

Wei Li frowned. "So, the medicine isn't good enough? If it cures 3% every day, then even if it gets worse by 2% every day, it can still be cured slowly!"

Mu Ling: “…”

Mu Ling was shocked: "You are such a genius at logic! You have to know that to triple the efficacy of a drug, you will need three times the amount of herbs. An animal's internal organs won't be able to handle such a strong drug!"

Wei Li was confused: "What should I do then?"

Mu Ling sighed: "Can't you treat 1% every day, but not aggravate the 2%? That way you can slowly get better."

"But we can't do that. They just keep getting worse. There's no way to stop it. That's why they say the damage is irreversible. Once the damage is done, it will keep getting worse."

Mu Ling shook her head. "I just told you, as long as you're happy every day and don't worry about internal stress, your condition won't get worse. Look at Qilin and Lightning, their conditions are getting worse. It's because they're happy and relaxed every day, so the medicine is working for them!"

"Is that so?" Wei Li scratched his head, as if he was convinced by Mu Ling.

Mu Ling said with certainty: "That's it! You have to believe me!"

Thinking of the principal's academic tycoon persona, Wei Li hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay..."

Category: "..."

Xiang Bie listened to the whole thing from the side, and the expression on his face was hard to describe.

Mu Ling's statement makes sense. If you stabilize the condition and take medicine slowly, the disease will get better. This logic is correct.

But the question is, why did Qilin and Lightning stabilize their conditions? Qilin had been in the mountains for eight months, acting crazy the whole time, so why did he suddenly stabilize? Did the change in him only occur when he met Mu Ling?

So the key to the problem still lies with Mu Ling.

Mu Ling just said so much, but skipped the most crucial part, which is, why Zhan Shou's condition can be stabilized as long as he is with her?

Xiang Bie even felt that even without taking medicine, Qilin and Lightning might get better as long as they stayed with Mu Ling.

Who would believe that the damage value has only increased by less than 20% in eight months?

Can the wild environment mitigate the increase in damage value? It's not like there were no war beasts in Piccolo Zoo before. How come they didn't have such outrageous data in the same wild environment?

To put it bluntly, Mu Ling just didn't realize how special she was.

"Okay, now that the video is out, we've given an explanation to netizens. Let's go to bed early tonight because we have to get up early tomorrow." Mu Ling said as she took the air-conditioning blanket at the end of the sofa and shook it out.

Wei Li asked, "Director, are you going to sleep in the veterinary station again?"

Mu Ling had no choice: "I have to watch over Pimi. Pimi is still in critical condition. I guess I will have to sleep in the veterinary station for at least the next week."

Wei Li felt pitiful when he heard this. Xiang Bie glanced at Mu Ling, then left without saying anything.

The next day, Mu Ling went to work at the military headquarters with Lightning early in the morning. When she came back at noon, she found that the sofa in the veterinary station lobby was gone. Puzzled, she asked Wei Li, "Brother Wei, where is the sofa?"

Wei Li pointed towards the garage and said, "Brother Xiang said there was something wrong with the sofa, so he moved it over there to fix it."

Mu Ling didn't take it seriously. She said "Oh" and started to busy herself with her own things.

After taking care of the animals' meals and medicine, and changing Pi Mi's diaper, Mu Ling followed Major Chang back to the afternoon shift.

When the last day of field work was over, Mu Ling could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although 80,000 yuan a day was easy to earn, it was also very hard work. Not only Lightning was tired, but she was also tired. She rode a mountain bike in the mountains every day, and her butt was broken into pieces.

In the evening, Major Chang took Mu Ling to the zoo entrance as usual. After getting off the car, Mu Ling said goodbye to Major Chang. Just as she was about to go in with Lightning, she heard Major Chang calling her from behind, "Director Mu."

Mu Ling turned back to look at him: "Huh?"

Major Chang took two steps forward. In the dim light, his face flushed slightly. He took out a gift bag from behind and handed it to Mu Ling: "Thank you for these three days."

Mu Ling looked at the bag and quickly refused: "No, no, I'm very happy to help you, I really don't need this..." The military originally wanted her subsidy, they had already given her enough, how could she have the nerve to accept other people's things!

Major Chang held the bag forward again, a little anxiously: "It's not something expensive, I just saw it in a store when I passed by, and I thought you might like it..."

Major Chang insisted again and again, and Mu Ling had no choice but to take the bag. She opened it and saw that there was a bracelet inside!

Major Chang said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. Well, I'll be leaving now. Thank you again!"

After saying that, Major Chang quickly got into the car, turned the steering wheel, turned around and left!

Mu Ling watched the silhouette of the war beast chariot getting farther and farther away. She scratched her face and looked down at the black panther beside her.

Lightning was also looking at Mu Ling. Its emerald green eyes looked even brighter and more dangerous in the night. Mu Ling reached out and scratched Lightning's big face, muttering, "Major Chang is so polite. Shouldn't we give something in return? What should we give?"

Lightning opened his mouth and licked Mu Ling's fingers, then used his nose to touch Mu Ling's fingers.

Mu Ling couldn't figure it out, so she wiped the leopard saliva on her hand on the leopard and rushed into the zoo like lightning. As a result, as soon as she entered, she saw the door of the ticket office opened again, and Xiang Bie came out again.

Mu Ling was surprised: "Brother Xiang?"

Xiang Bie glanced at him, then at the bag in her hand, and said, "I'm back."

Mu Ling hummed, then held up the bag and said, "This was given to me by Major Chang. He's such a sincere man. What do you think I should give him in return?"

Xiang Bie's expression was calm: "I don't know."

After saying that, he left.

Mu Ling quickly chased after him and asked, "Brother Xiang, you're looking for something in the ticket office again. What are you looking for? I think the ticket office is empty, isn't it?"

Xiang Bie didn't answer her. When he reached the office building, he went straight upstairs.

Mu Ling looked at his back, shrugged, and said to Lightning, "Cold."

When Mu Ling brought Lightning back to the veterinary station, she was stunned. The sofa in the veterinary station had changed into a 1.3-meter-long small bed!

Wei Li was plugging in the testing equipment. Seeing Mu Ling looking at the sofa, he said, "Brother Xiang modified this. He turned it into a retractable bed. When you push it in, it's a sofa, and when you fold it out, it becomes a small bed. Director, this is perfect for you to sleep comfortably while on duty at the veterinary station these days."

Mu Ling looked at the small bed and thought of Brother Xiang again.

She smiled slightly and uttered another comment: "Cold on the outside, warm on the inside!"

A good person is coming!

After Mu Ling fed the animals and gave them medicine, and Brother Wei's line was plugged in, Mu Ling pulled Qilin out for testing, and then did the same for Lightning.

An hour later, Mu Ling received two fresh appraisal reports.

Qilin's comprehensive damage value dropped from 69.8% yesterday to 69.5%.

The comprehensive damage value of lightning dropped from 62% yesterday to 57.3%.

"Wow, our Lightning has made great progress!" Mu Ling held Lightning's black head and kissed it hard on the face!

The black panther obviously also liked to rub its face against Mu Ling's. It stretched its neck and used its forehead to push Mu Ling's face, with its huge body tightly pressed against Mu Ling.

Mu Ling found it funny, hugged it and tapped its nose: "You really are a little sticky bag."

The black panther made a gurgling sound in its throat and rubbed against Mu Ling's face again.

This was the scene that Xiang Bie and Colonel Song saw when they came in. Xiang Bie was no longer surprised. Given Mu Ling's love for the two princesses, he wouldn't be surprised if she ate from the same bowl with them one day.

However, Lieutenant Colonel Song still hadn't adapted to the situation, and his pupils were shaking.

Xiang Bie walked in and picked up the two inspection reports first. After reading them, he raised his eyebrows.

With the same amount of medicine, Lightning reduced his damage by 4.7% per day, while Qilin only reduced it by 0.3%...

Seeing Xiang Bie reading the report, Mu Ling said, "Qilin must have suffered too much trauma, which has affected its mental recovery. I hope the wound on its back heals quickly."

Category: "..."

Xiang Bie tilted his head and glanced at Mu Ling.

Is it possible that Qilin lost less weight because it hasn't seen you for two consecutive days?

The lightning is much less because it is with you almost day and night.

Xiang Bie put the two reports in a file bag and kept them for filing.

At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Song also spoke up: "Director Mu, um, I heard you are recruiting employees. What positions are you looking for?"

Mu Ling thought for a moment and said, "We need to hire quite a lot: six breeders, two rangers, one ticket seller, one supermarket cashier, two supermarket stockers, one restaurant chef, and two restaurant waiters. These are the ones we'll take for now. After the opening, if business is good, we'll expand the staff... If business isn't good, we'll reduce the staff..."

Mu Ling actually thought that business should not be bad. Their zoo relies on Qilin and is now very popular on Star Internet. However, this kind of thing is not without precedent. When the Beak Zoo first opened two years ago, it was also very popular. Advertisements were everywhere and many people came to visit. However, due to the poor visiting experience, it eventually gradually cooled down.

So in the final analysis, the most important thing about the zoo is the animals. Anyway, she doesn't have to help the military tomorrow. Mu Ling decided that starting from tomorrow, she will go up the mountain to build relationships with the little animals and make sure to teach them not to be afraid of tourists and to show up in front of tourists more often in the future!

Mu Ling was thinking about the animals, but Lieutenant Colonel Song hesitated for a long time before saying sheepishly, "Actually, I have a few friends who are retired beastmasters. They want to come to your academy for an interview. I'm wondering if they can..."

Mu Ling was stunned for a moment, then instantly burst into ecstasy: "Why not?! Beast Tamers, they must be very good at taking care of animals, and they know a lot about war beasts. They can also drive and shoot. Isn't this a perfect match for my profession?"

Lieutenant Colonel Song was a little embarrassed: "They all retired due to injuries..."

Mu Ling was stunned: "Injured?"

Lieutenant Colonel Song pursed his lips and said, "There are three in total. One has a disabled left hand, one has a disabled right eye, and one has a limp in his right leg..."

Lieutenant Colonel Song's voice became increasingly quiet. By the end, he had lost all his confidence, but he still insisted, "But they are truly formidable. They were all first-class soldiers who once commanded S-rank war beasts. It's just that their war beasts retired earlier than they did. After losing their war beast companions, they were transferred to ordinary troops. However, they are still active on the front lines. It's just that they were unlucky and were injured in the alien beast tide..."

Lieutenant Colonel Song said this and looked at Mu Ling again: "Their disabilities are not to the point of losing their ability to work. They can work normally, really!"

Mu Ling looked at Lieutenant Colonel Song in silence, then nodded seriously: "Lieutenant Colonel Song, of course I believe what you say, but I still need to meet them in person. So, please let them know when it's convenient for them to come."

Lieutenant Colonel Song was surprised: "Are you willing to give them a chance to interview?"

Mu Ling smiled and said, "Of course. I still say that, Beast Taming Army, that's so cool!"

-

Mu Ling knew the Beast Tamers were cool, but she didn't expect them to be this cool...

Mu Ling met the three interviewees that Colonel Song mentioned on the third day.

What Mu Ling didn't expect was that there was a woman among them.

Mu Ling looked at the long-haired sister, and then looked at her left hand. She was wearing a glove on her left hand. In the middle of summer, people would normally feel strange if someone wore gloves, but she didn't. Maybe she was used to wearing uniforms, and it was just a glove, but she looked very heroic.

Mu Ling was interviewing in a small restaurant. The long-haired woman obviously noticed that Mu Ling was looking at her. She smiled and used her right hand with thin calluses to tear off the glove on her left hand, revealing her three mechanical fingers.

Three of her fingers were severed at the root, probably bitten off by some strange beast. Now, in their place, there were three silver artificial fingers...

Mu Ling stared at the three artificial fingers...

Damn, it's actually cooler!

So cool!

"Director, can I have the interview like this?" The woman raised her hand and asked Mu Ling with a smile. Her posture was casual and she did not seem to feel inferior about her hand.

Mu Ling quickly retracted her gaze and nodded heavily: "Okay!"

Then he hurriedly handed out an interview form for the other party to fill out!

The long-haired woman glanced at Mu Ling, raised her eyebrows, and lowered her head to fill out the form.

While she was filling out the form, Mu Ling looked at the other two people.

The other two were both men, one in his thirties, wearing a black eye patch on his right eye. His face was expressionless and he looked very serious.

A man in his forties, a little plump, with a smiling face, looking very approachable.

Mu Ling also asked them to fill out a form. After they finished filling it out, she asked them some questions, such as whether they could drive an amphibious vehicle, whether they could use a tranquilizer gun, how they should deal with strange beasts, what salary they could accept, etc.

All three answered one by one.

By the end, when the evaluation was almost complete, Mu Ling stood up and shook hands with the three people one by one. "Welcome to our Beak Zoo family," she said. "When is a convenient time for you to start?"

The three of them were stunned at first, looking at each other, and then the smiling man in his forties spoke up, "Director Mu, did you hire us because of Lieutenant Colonel Song?"

Mu Ling was stunned: "Ah? Why do you ask?"

The man with a stern face said, "You're being a little too cheerful."

Mu Ling: “…”

The long-haired woman also said, "It's okay, Director Mu. Just have a normal interview. No need to consider anyone's face. Otherwise, we would be embarrassed."

Mu Ling: “…”

Mu Ling was stunned. She scratched her head, incredulous: "Have you three always been so unclear about yourselves?"

The three of them frowned.

Mu Ling wasn't one to quibble. She said bluntly, "I think I've found a treasure by hiring you three! Even if you weren't having these minor health issues, where else would I find three retired Beast Tamers who aren't demanding high salaries, are hardworking, and have a lot of skills? Wake up! Do you guys even know how valuable you are?"

Three people: "..."

After Mu Ling finished speaking, she extended her hand again and raised her chin: "Anyway, I am sincere in hiring you three. Now it all depends on your opinion!"

The three of them exchanged glances again, and soon, the long-haired woman shook hands with Mu Ling first: "It's my honor."

Next came the serious and cold-faced man. He didn't say anything, but his attitude said it all.

Finally, the smiling uncle said, "Director Mu, thank you very much for your respect for us. I hope we can work happily together in the future."

Mu Ling nodded heavily: "I hope we can have fun working together in the future!"

At this point, the first recruitment of Beek Zoo was a complete success and all employees were hired!

After the first batch of employees are recruited, the next step is vocational training.

This aspect was left to Brother Wei and Brother Xiang. Mu Ling had other things to do. She had to contact the manufacturer to restock the supermarket in the service area, and...

The cleanup suddenly went downhill again.

The first person to discover that Qingjian had come down the mountain was one of the three newly hired employees, the long-haired sister Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan was washing things at the time. When she looked up, she saw a pair of red animal eyes shooting out from the forest at the entrance of the mountain road.

Lin Xuan almost immediately touched the tranquilizer gun behind her waist, until she felt that the pair of animal eyes looked familiar, and then she remembered that this should be the S-level black snow wolf that attacked the director in the live broadcast!

Lin Xuan immediately used the intercom to contact others.

Wei Li was familiarizing himself with the shuttle bus with two other new employees when he heard the message from the intercom. He was about to leave immediately, but the serious-looking eldest brother Zhao Fang asked, "Do you have any protective suits? Brother Li and I will go around to the back and outflank them."

Wei Li was stunned: "Outflank?"

Zhao Fang had obviously watched the live broadcast as well. He frowned and said, "The black snow wolf isn't affected by anesthesia, so tranquilizer guns won't work on it. But it suddenly appeared, most likely to seek revenge for what happened to the little wolf. Contact the headmaster first and tell her not to come out. Brother Li and I will surround it from behind and drive it back up the mountain!"

Wei Li: “…”

At this moment, Lin Xuan's voice came again from the intercom: "It's coming in!"

Zhao Fang's face changed and he immediately ran outside. Li Yan, with a smile on his face, limped and followed him.

Wei Li seemed to react at that moment and quickly chased after him.

When they arrived at the open space outside, they saw that the black snow wolf had indeed walked into the service area from the entrance of the mountain road. It stood opposite Lin Xuan. Because Lin Xuan blocked its way, it bared its teeth and stared at Lin Xuan in an attacking posture. Its red eyes looked very bloody!

Zhao Fang and Li Yan looked at each other, and they immediately went around the building, went behind the black snow wolf, and surrounded it.

But at this moment, Mu Ling just came out of the office building. As soon as she came out, she saw the Qingjian and exclaimed "Ah".

Lin Xuan frowned upon hearing this and said to Mu Ling, "Director, you go in first."

"Huh?" Mu Ling was stunned for a moment, then she saw the three new employees' expressions of fear, and finally realized what was happening. She quickly said, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay. The clearing house won't bite."

Mu Ling said this, not even wearing protective clothing, and walked over to Qingjian. She stretched out her hand to Qingjian: "Jiao, why are you here?"

Qingjian still stared at Lin Xuan vigilantly. It slowly walked along the building towards Mu Ling. It stopped only when it reached Mu Ling's front and looked up at Mu Ling coldly.

Mu Ling squatted down, rubbed its rough and stiff fur, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qingjiao approached Mu Ling, then suddenly stretched out its tongue, licked Mu Ling's hair, licked Mu Ling's ears, and then looked at Mu Ling.

Mu Ling: “…”

This familiar feeling...

Seeing that Mu Ling did not resist, Qing Jiao bit the corner of Mu Ling's clothes and dragged her backwards.

Mu Ling: “…”

Ok, got it.

Mu Ling turned around and said to the three new employees who were all shocked, and the calm Wei Ge, "It's okay. My sister Qing has assigned me some work. I'm going into the mountains on a business trip and will be back soon. You don't have to wait for me for dinner."
