Chapter 210 Colonel Xiao's Wolf Wags Its Tail at Lin Muyan
Everyone watched Xiao Li's departing figure with envy.
The fact that the majestic wolf was a mutated wolf was no secret throughout the entire military region.
Moreover, many people have witnessed Silverwind unleashing its skills in the training field and know that it is a wind-type mutated wolf. Everyone is extremely envious and jealous.
"With this mutated wolf, Colonel Xiao is essentially given superpowers. Even if he doesn't awaken them on his own in the end, he'll definitely keep his colonel position, and no one will dare to say anything against him."
"Other officers might be a different story. Without any background or status, if they are overtaken by the Awakened, we might have to make some internal adjustments. In the future, it will be a world of the strong."
"So, can I pray that I awaken some powerful superpower, and maybe I can even become a military officer in the future?"
The soldiers whispered amongst themselves as they watched Xiao Li's retreating figure, unaware that Huang Zhen's expression was growing increasingly grim.
"Hey? Look, Colonel Xiao's wolf seems so affectionate with that lady. I remember that wolf is very docile, but it never gets close to anyone except Colonel Xiao."
Suddenly, someone pointed at Lin Muyan's back and exclaimed in surprise. Everyone also saw the mutated wolf wagging its tail at Lin Muyan.
Xiao Li didn't mind Yin Feng acting like a lapdog in front of Lin Muyan at all. This wolf was originally tamed by Lin Muyan; he was merely the owner she found for the mutated wolf.
“Miss Lin, Silver Wind is very well-behaved and obedient, but I’ve also discovered recently that it’s really very smart. It only listens to me and only allows me to touch its head.”
Lin Muyan plucked a handful of the wolf's thick tail; no fur fell out, so she knew that Xiao Li had fed it very well.
Hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh:
"I simply removed its bloodthirsty nature. It has developed some intelligence, making it much smarter than ordinary animals and able to know who its master is."
"You should also remind the other people around you to try not to tease it. After all, it's not a pet that's not very dangerous, so you should be careful when you're with it."
Xiao Li nodded, and seeing that Lin Muyan's smile broadened when they talked about Yin Feng, he began to find topics to discuss about Yin Feng.
Lin Muyan listened and smiled. When Xiao Li mentioned feeding Yin Feng, Lin Muyan thought for a moment and said:
"Does your unit have enough rations? If not, I'll send you some. We'll definitely need to use up some rations to feed it during this period, but it should be able to hunt mutated beasts for food in the future."
"It can eat mutated beasts?"
Lin Muyan nodded:
"It should be okay, but when feeding it, it's best to cook the meat first to minimize its blood intake and raw meat consumption."
This was just Lin Muyan's suggestion to be cautious. After all, they were mutated beasts, and they were only driven mad by the animal-catching net without any further restraint. No one knew whether their bloodthirsty and brutal nature would still be brought out after they came into contact with more flesh and blood.
Lin Muyan hasn't tested this yet, nor can she do it on her own contracted beasts. She needs to find an opportunity to catch a useless mutated beast and try it out.
The two walked away, while the others remained where they were, their eyes filled with envy.
"That young lady must be no ordinary person. She might be an Awakened One, otherwise Colonel Xiao's wolf wouldn't be wagging its tail at her."
"Major Zhang and Major Su both seem to know her. I wonder what that young lady's background is?"
Su Cheng'an didn't shy away from the topic and said frankly:
"Her name is Lin Muyan. She is an honored guest of the Su family. You must show her respect when you see her in the future."
Zhang Shixu thought for a moment, and finally spoke up:
"She's very capable. Don't make fun of her anymore, or even if it's not Young Master Su, Xiao Li will probably be the first to stand up and punish you."
Hearing the two majors defend the woman so fiercely, everyone became even more curious about her identity.
After spending some time on the playground with Xiao Li and Yin Feng, and estimating that her older brother's assessment was almost over, Lin Muyan returned to the stadium entrance, where she happened to see Lin Xiao coming out.
It goes without saying that Lin Xiao must have passed the test.
Sure enough, as soon as they met, Lin Xiao handed the job application form to Lin Muyan.
"Little sister, I did it!"
Lin Xiao was genuinely excited and happy to be able to enlist, and his gratitude towards Lin Muyan grew even stronger.
He knew that if it weren't for his sister, he would never have been able to reach this level in his life.
He used to be an average student, with average interpersonal skills; he was just an ordinary child from an ordinary family.
If there hadn't been an apocalypse, he might have worked as a real estate agent for a while, ruined his health, saved up some money, bought a house, and become a lifelong mortgage slave.
He could marry another wife, have a child, and become a devoted husband and father. His life would be ordinary and uneventful, but peaceful and uneventful, with nothing particularly remarkable or tearful.
But things are different now. With his younger sister returning to help the family and him, the older brother, he might have remained mediocre for the rest of his life, never getting to see a wider world.
Lin Muyan smiled and gave Lin Xiao a thumbs up, showering him with praise until he felt embarrassed.
"By the way, I'm officially enlisting in three days. I need to live in a dormitory for training and missions. I'm worried that my parents will worry and won't let me enlist. When I get home, little sister, you must help me persuade them."
Lin Muyan smiled and agreed.
Seeing the siblings chatting and laughing, Xiao Li didn't disturb them. When it was almost time, he took two steps forward and looked at Lin Xiao, saying:
"You new recruits will undergo a month of intensive training. Once that's over, you'll be randomly assigned to various squads to carry out missions. I'll let you join the Hidden Dragon Team then. Are you willing?"
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up. It was certainly good to have someone to guide him. He also knew that the other person was only willing to talk to him because of his sister. So after thanking Xiao Li, he thanked his sister as well.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Lin Muyan said goodbye to Xiao Li and returned to the safe house with Lin Xiao.
On the way, Lin Xiao couldn't help but speak:
"Little sister, Rong Muchen and Shen Jiaojiao both came to participate in the assessment. Shen Jiaojiao has been accepted, but it seems that Rong Muchen was not selected."
Lin Muyan nodded: "Yes, Rong Muchen is too arrogant and conceited. His failure to be selected was expected."
"What about Shen Jiaojiao? Although she hasn't done anything particularly outrageous, she's been making constant little moves lately. I'm worried that if she joins the army like this, she might harm others."
"Don't worry, with her underhanded methods, do you think there are many in the army who will fall for her tricks? But there's something that surprised me: her spatial dimension has actually increased. Logically, she should need to absorb crystal cores to enhance her abilities. Where did she get those crystal cores?"
Lin Muyan realized that she had underestimated Shen Jiaojiao; she had actually managed to obtain crystal cores to enhance her strength.
Lin Xiao frowned, thinking of the private transactions among the villa owners on the hillside recently, and said:
"I heard that there are quite a few private organizations in the villas on the hillside, some of which exchange resources, and maybe even crystal cores."
Lin Muyan's expression changed upon hearing this. It seems that there are hidden talents in this villa on the hillside. There are even capable people here who can hunt down and seize crystal cores.
Could she then obtain more crystal cores through this method?
