Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Dad
"Is this how you become someone's father?!" screamed.
Xiao Liang: "..."
Being constantly shaken by these thick-haired paws, the water that had entered my brain when I rescued it was almost shaken out.
So you admitted it?
Am I your father?
-Jiamu Hospital Laboratory-
"Is this considered alive?"
After three days and three nights of closed-door surgery, when Xiao Liang saw Jiang Yongzhuang again, he had been reborn, from the cat's body...
Ascension!
It should be considered a kind of ascension. After all, it no longer looks like an ordinary kitten. At least it looks like a small orc.
The fur on the newborn Xiao Yongzhuang's body has not completely fallen off, and he cannot walk. He has been crawling around in the protective incubator, sniffing everywhere with his pink nose, his cat ears standing up, and his tail wagging constantly, trying to get out.
If Xiao Liang had not seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard for him to imagine that this regeneration experiment, which was strictly prohibited by the scientific community, conducted in the brain of a cat that was not completely dead, would achieve breakthrough results in the end times when order collapsed.
To be honest, although he had done some research in this area before, he had never had any successful cases.
The success of this operation was entirely due to——
-A few days ago-
"Are you kidding me! This is a zombie! A zombie cat isn't a zombie? What a shady substitution!"
"Hurry up and leave! Our hospital doesn't accept zombies, not even their corpses!"
"Haha, what about zombie hunters..."
"What? You're a zombie hunter!?"
"Listen to me, my friend, this isn't about money, okay?"
"No matter how much money you offer, it won't work. This kind of research has long been banned. I'm a doctor who strictly abides by the rules and regulations. Don't force me. Also, I solemnly declare that I'm not a veterinarian!"
Clang——
“……!”
"Whether you're a veterinarian or a human doctor, as long as a life is alive, it has the right to live! I have never doubted this."
Clang——
"To be honest, I know a thing or two about treating animals. It's just my hobby."
"...How about I take a look first?"
"There's no hope—"
Clang, clang—
"I'll see whether he can be saved or not!"
Clang, clang, clang—"Let me try!"
Dangdangdangdang...
(On the phone) "Immediately notify all departments to prepare surgical equipment!" (Serious) (I'm going to fight the King of Hell today)
(After hanging up the phone, facing the "patient's" family) "I swear by my years of professional ethics that I will do my utmost to save Jiang Yongzhuang's kitten!" (Extremely serious)
- On the operating table, under the incandescent light -
The cat's limbs were fixed, its legs spread wide open, and its tongue half sticking out, looking as miserable as if it had been neutered.
Pulling on surgical plastic gloves, the surgeon's gold-rimmed glasses reflected a layer of light.
"You and I are not meant to be together. It's all thanks to his money."
-
Xiao Liang stood up from his eye contact with the kitten orc, turned around and asked Dr. Meng Daogan, the biochemical medical genius who had just completed this unprecedented great operation,
"Will he always be this big?"
Jiang Yongzhuang now looks like a little boy of two or three years old.
Little boys of this age are the most noisy and annoying.
"No, no, no," seeing that the sponsor had spoken, Meng Daogan hurriedly showed Xiao Liang the photos of Xiao Yongzhuang that he had taken in the operating room these days. Their hospital's postoperative support service is first-class.
"This is what it looked like when it was first born."
Xiao Liang: “…” Nezha.
However, in just a few days, Xiao Yongzhuang was reborn, growing from a small ball of flesh to the size of a two or three-year-old child.
It will continue to grow. The cat beastman develops very fast. According to Meng Daogan's estimation, after it stabilizes, it should maintain the appearance of an 18-year-old boy. This age is almost the age of the cat when it came, converted into human age.
His brain also developed along with his body. Although genes that did not originally exist in cats were implanted, to what extent this brain mixed with genes from other species would develop in the end, whether it could reach the IQ level of a normal 18-year-old adult human, or would be far below the level to be able to communicate with humans, was still an unknown, and even Meng Daogan could not estimate it.
But one thing is certain, during the development of the brain, it needs to constantly receive external stimulation and establish synapses and connections. The more pathways there are and the more complex the structure, the smarter it will naturally be.
Therefore, Meng Daogan suggested that Xiao Liang could talk to it more when he was free. After all, apart from Meng Daogan, Xiao Liang was the first person Xiao Yongzhuang saw after opening his eyes, so he would naturally have a very deep impression of him.
I don’t know if I had a brain seizure at that time.
Xiao Liang: "Call me daddy."
Men really like to be someone else's father, thinking that this way they can own someone else's mother. (Tsk)
“Mee—!”
Xiao Yongzhuang looked at the man in front of him and made a short and urgent sound.
But no matter how you listen to it, it doesn’t match the syllable “ba”.
"Is he unable to understand human language now?" Xiao Liang, who was frustrated in recognizing his son, was quite good at making excuses for himself.
Meng Daogan: “…”
The sound of Jiang Yongzhuang yelling every day at mealtime comes to mind.
"Here I am! Food! Eat!"
However, he couldn't pour cold water on the sponsor. You know, this was not an ordinary sponsor, but the God of Wealth!
"Well... at the moment, he doesn't quite understand, and he can't speak," Meng Daogan said stubbornly, "so he needs socialization training."
"Given time, I'm sure I can—"
Before he could finish his words, the cat orc slapped him in the face.
"ear……?"
Xiao Yongzhuang finally came up with this word, which is also his most intuitive appearance feature at present.
He questioned the two-legged beast in a baby voice, intending to make him call him dad, "Why don't you have one?"
So, how did you, who don’t have ears, give birth to me, who has long ears?
Xiao Liang: "..."
Trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice.
As Xiao Yongzhuang grew up day by day, when he was finally able to run and jump, and followed the man who made him call dad out of Jiamu Hospital, he had grown to the height of Xiao Liang's waist, and followed the man like a little follower.
Not only that, the animal signs on his body are gradually weakening. At least when others see him for the first time, they will not think that he is a monster, but a middle school boy with a special hobby who likes to cosplay as animals.
Xiao Liang originally wanted to take Jiang Yongzhuang, who had turned into a "human", to Jile Guild to meet Jiang Qian, but he was a little worried that such a silly-looking Jiang Yongzhuang suddenly appearing in front of her would scare her.
Moreover, the operation to turn a cat into a human was beyond the comprehension of normal people. At the same time, it was the only way to ensure that this life would not be lost.
Besides, he couldn't show up in front of her to explain it all.
Because she said she never wanted to see him again...
never mind.
Looking at Jiang Yongzhuang, who had just arrived in the wilderness and was showing great interest in everything, he was concentrating on preparing to catch the bird, his nature remained unchanged.
With a human body and a cat's brain, it would be a burden if sent to Jiang Xi.
Xiao Liang thought, let’s take care of it for a while longer.
At least we have to wait until he can take care of himself, doesn't cause trouble, and doesn't cause trouble to others. It would be even better if he can be a little stronger and can take on the role of protecting Jiang Xi.
Xiao Liang didn't know how Jiang Qian had been doing in Paradise Valley during this period, but he also found out the true identity of the man who wanted to take a ride with them. He was the president of the most powerful guild in the southern part of the continent.
Although he was hostile to himself, he went to great lengths to snatch Jiang Xi away from him, which showed that he would not harm Jiang Xi.
As for superpowers...
Xiao Liang was very sure that his special ability had not disappeared. Then, judging from the man's mental strength he estimated, it might not disappear either.
Even if they disappeared, they still had the guild to back them up, so Jiang Xi would be fine.
With this mentality, Xiao Liang always kept Xiao Yongzhuang by his side, waiting for him to grow up.
Until one day during a zombie hunting mission, something happened that he had never expected.
In order to save Jiang Yongzhuang, Xiao Liang had given everything he had and spent all his savings over the years.
Judging from the current situation, the money is well spent. There is nothing abnormal with Jiang Yongzhuang's body. Although he was bitten by a zombie, there is no sign of zombie transformation after he changed his body. He is healthy, happy, lively and active every day.
But orcs are a new species after all, which has never existed before. No one can guarantee that there will be no problems with them in their future lives.
The guarantee for solving the problem requires financial support.
Lots of money.
As long as you have money, there is nothing that is impossible with Dr. Meng Daogan.
I dreamed about money, so this name was not chosen in vain.
In this terrible apocalypse, there is no absolute way for others to make money. In theory, any way is possible.
But there is almost only one way for zombie hunters to make money, and it is the fastest way among all professions.
If other psychics want to use their superpowers to kill high-level zombies, they need to consume huge amounts of mental energy, which is not cost-effective. Therefore, they prefer to rely on large guilds, provide combat power, work side by side, and achieve a win-win situation.
The mental energy loss of zombie hunters when hunting zombies is only one hundredth of that of other types of psychics, which means that they can easily slaughter a team of high-level zombies.
The zombie crystal core in the brain of a high-level zombie that has undergone a second mutation is the most valuable thing in the apocalypse.
Therefore, Xiao Liang's life trajectory after meeting Jiang Qian can be summarized in one sentence.
[When I’m not with you, I’m working hard to make money every day!]
Oh, and take care of the cubs.
Generally, before luring monsters, Xiao Liang would ask Jiang Yongzhuang to find a place to hide to ensure his safety.
Jiang Yongzhuang would also be obedient, because he could also sense that those monsters with red eyes and bared fangs and claws were very dangerous, so he always secretly monitored every move outside.
Suddenly one day, before Xiao Liang had finished clearing out the zombies, Jiang Yongzhuang ran out.
Is the cat crazy?
He was really scared because the zombie monsters he attracted today were all rated very high, and being bitten by them was no joke.
But soon, Xiao Liang discovered something wrong.
The zombie that intended to attack Jiang Yongzhuang fell down in front of him.
Cat claws attack! Everyone must die!
Xiao Liang recognized Jiang Yongzhuang's combat status and strength almost at a glance.
It's not just random grabbing without any reason, it looks like...
It's a zombie hunter!!
Can orcs also awaken human superpowers?
Xiao Liang didn't know, just as he didn't know whether this was a necessary stage in the growth process of orcs. If so, then this species was against the will of heaven.
However, all the answers will only come after he takes Jiang Yongzhuang back to Jiamu Hospital to find Meng Daogan.
After verifying it several times, Xiao Liang finally confirmed that Jiang Yongzhuang already had the ability to kill S-level high-level zombies, although the number of battles he could fight at one time was far less than his.
Your dad is still your dad.
But who can guarantee that when Jiang Yongzhuang grows up to be 18 years old, he will not become a "big trouble" in the future?
Now that Jiang Qian has such a powerful orc bodyguard, she no longer needs a man.
Let’s talk about the future later.
Anyway, Jiang Yongzhuang, who is 1.65 meters tall, is still cute.
"There are so many shredded meat in the claws, wonderful!"
Every time this happened, he couldn't help but want to chew it, and then Xiao Liang would immediately grab his claws and cut his nails.
He can't even eat zombie meat!
So, Xiao Liang simply customized a pair of offensive gloves for him.
The cat claws turned into cat fists.
One S-level per circle.
Jiang Yongzhuang's practical experience increases day by day, and he becomes stronger and stronger.
Then,
Xiao Liang suddenly discovered that they were making money faster.
Then, I got rich...
Of course, the two men would not have much expenses, so Xiao Liang saved up those zombie crystal cores with relatively high individual prices, and planned to let Jiang Yongzhuang bring them to Jiang Qian when the time comes.
Now their biggest expense is, at best, buying cans.
It’s said to be buying, but actually it’s looking for.
Every time Xiao Liang would secretly go look for him after Jiang Yongzhuang fell asleep.
In some areas where the zombie virus outbreak occurred later, there is still some canned cat food left.
But even the last batches produced, which had a long shelf life, were at least three months past their expiration date.
This batch... Xiao Liang took a look.
It’s okay, only half a year.
Eat the cat that won't die.
A small metal can appeared from nowhere and drew a beautiful parabola in the air.
Jiang Yongzhuang pounced on it with excitement and held it down.
It's a little snack before the battle.
"Do you smell it?" Xiao Liang gestured to him.
Jiang Yongzhuang raised his head from in front of the cans with a cunning look in his eyes.
Smell it.
Cats are natural predators, and the reason they appear in this place today is definitely not to play.
He is here to make money!
In shed No. 13, people were so crowded that they were pressed against each other. However, no one realized that some of the people around them were not human!
The stench of mutated zombies rising into the sky became stronger and stronger.
Jiang Yongzhuang stood up and scanned the crowd with his round eyes at the source of the smell that could no longer be concealed.
The cat punch is ready to go.
The hunting time is coming.
