Monitoring room —
Lin's mother stood there stunned, her hands trembling slightly, her palms sweating profusely. "Is this what a mutated animal is like?"
The vivid images on the screen filled Lin's mother with fear and unease.
A fish the size of a car, a crocodile the size of a van, and a giant crab...
Lin's father held Lin's mother's hand tightly, his fear was no less.
Lin Anran's fair face remained expressionless. She slowly tightened her grip on her mother's icy hand and said gently, "Dad, Mom, Xiaoyu! Do you see clearly? They are our future enemies!"
"If we don't fight back, we'll be eaten alive like them! So we can't back down, we can't be afraid. We have superpowers, and we must fight them to the very end!!!"
The inspiring words struck a chord with Lin Yu, and his fear and anxiety gradually hardened. "That's right! I'm not afraid of them at all! I'm going to tame them and make them my pets!"
Lin Anran said calmly, "Okay! I'll take you to catch them tomorrow!"
No need for that, sis!!! He was serious about the first part, but he was just joking about the second part, hahaha!
Lin's father noticed something and calmly asked, "Ranran, why do animals mutate first? Didn't you say before that humans mutated into zombies first, and then the animals mutated slowly?"
Lin Anran was also puzzled. She had realized that this life was different from the last; everything seemed to have happened earlier. "I'm not quite sure either. In the last life, the animal mutations only occurred after the rain stopped. However, in this life, we are well-prepared, and we will adapt to any changes!"
After recovering from her fear, Lin's mother said firmly, "That's right, Ranran is right! With our family all together, no difficulty is insurmountable!"
Seeing that everyone's emotions were gradually calming down, Lin Anran said thoughtfully, "Let's have a meeting tonight! I have something important to say!"
There are some things she should say, and they need to work even harder from now on!
After dinner, Lin Anran gathered everyone into the space.
Tuan Tuan and Da Hei skillfully rolled around on the grassland and swam in the stream.
Lin Anran prepared a special PPT to introduce the topic, saying, "As you have all seen today, mutated animals have already appeared!"
"This also means that we are not the only ones with superpowers! There is not much change in how we use the spring water and spiritual fruits in the space now."
"......"
"Next, we will engage in practical combat to obtain the spirit cores from the bodies of mutated animals..."
An hour later, Lin Yu said impatiently, "I understand! Sis! When do we move out?"
"There's no rush! Let's wait two more days!"
......
Two days have passed since the meeting, and Lin Yu is eagerly preparing for battle!
Lin Anran put on a windbreaker. She was only taking Lin Yu out today and didn't know the specific situation outside yet, so she couldn't let Lin's parents take the risk.
As they exited the fortress via a narrow path, the wind outside had cooled to a moderate level, but the rain was still heavy. Lin's parents gave the two of them some words of advice, concerned for their safety.
Lin Anran moved a small boat out of her spatial dimension, and the two entered the cockpit. She skillfully maneuvered the boat toward the old factory.
"Sis! You can even drive a boat?"
"I had contact with them in my previous life."
Before Lin Yu could ask anything else, Lin Anran suddenly slammed on the brakes!
There's something under the boat!
Lin Yu gripped the handrail tightly, his heart pounding with anxiety. "Is it a mutated animal?"
"Xiaoyu, hold on tight to me, let's climb the tree first!" Lin Anran quickly stowed the small boat, and a thick branch flew out from the nearest tree, wrapped around the two of them, and carried them to the top of the tree.
Several large fish suddenly leaped out from where the small boat had been.
"Holy crap!!!" Lin Yu exclaimed in shock, clutching his wildly beating heart.
It wasn't so scary on the screen, but seeing it in real life, it's huge! So terrifying!
Lin Anran's lips curled slightly, her eyes suddenly turning cold. She took out two rifles from her spatial storage and tossed one to Lin Yu, saying, "Try to see how your recent training is going."
"Understood, sis!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ... Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The two fired wildly, the river surface covered in dark blood, until it returned to calm, at which point Lin Anran signaled Lin Yu to stop.
"Sis! Didn't you say that mutated animals have very tough exteriors and can't be killed by guns? How come all of these are dead!"
"They are all first-level mutant animals, and they haven't formed a solid shell yet. I was skeptical, so I decided to give it a try!"
Lin Anran moored the small boat on the river again, and the tree branches carried the two of them down.
The hardest part wasn't fighting the mutated animals, but digging out their spirit cores. Lin Yu felt nauseous as he dug out the spirit core from the big fish's body.
He looked at his relaxed older sister with a wronged expression, and pouted reluctantly, saying, "Why didn't I awaken my wood-type ability? Ugh, it stinks!"
Lin Anran couldn't bear to laugh, so she took out a large sack of blankets from her spatial storage: "Where else can you dig for spirit cores? Dig for spirit cores here! How many spirit cores do you dig up? One sackful at a time!"
"Sis! You don't care about me at all! You're still playing around!"
An hour had passed since the two finished cleaning up the spirit cores together, and Lin Anran continued to steer the boat toward the old factory.
"Brother! Someone's here! Someone's sailing!" Ah Chai shouted excitedly.
Xu Zhou had finally managed to "appease" everyone, but Ah Chai's constant shrilly nearly scared him to death. He was also terrified of those mutated animals! Besides, his gun only had five bullets!
He originally intended to scold Ah Chai, but then he suddenly realized something and hurriedly went to the window.
