As the flames gradually died down, a pristine white swan stood amidst the ruins of the central building.
The swan gently curved its elegant long neck: "I have been trapped here for many years. Thank you for saving me."
Lu Danggui and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
That's it?
Shouldn't blowing up the central building have yielded a dungeon core?
As the only one among this group who had seen the core of the dungeon, Lu Dangui took the lead and picked up the swan.
The swan, held in her hand, flapped its wings in protest: "Bee... That's very impolite! Let me go!"
The fact that the instance did not collapse indicates that the swan is not the core of the instance.
Lu Danggui temporarily released the swan.
Li Yue's eyes sparkled: "I think... there are so many delicious things nearby, it's finally harvest season!"
"Are you going to pick them up or not? If not, I'll go." Li Yue's entire being was filled with urgency.
Other mercenaries were also eager to make their move.
Compared to the elusive and unpredictable core of the dungeon, the immediate benefits are far more tempting. Besides, there's only one core, and even if you find it, there's a high probability it won't belong to you.
Sister Diao, being understanding, waved her hand and said, "You all go ahead, I'll watch over this bird."
The swan protested: "I am a swan, not just any bird."
The eagle sister gave her a cold stare, and the oppressive presence of the swan at the top of the food chain instantly silenced her.
Taking advantage of the free time, Li Yue and the others scurried about like weasels among chickens. They picked up every duckling they saw, tying them by the feet with ropes, and soon each of them had a string of ducklings tied to them.
Li Yue pursed her lips. It was a pity the pigeons had all flown away; otherwise, she would have caught them all and made pigeon soup—it would be so nourishing!
Xia Chuhe slowly woke up and sighed as he looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.
Then, she started picking up the ducks too.
Those animals that haven't fully differentiated include chickens, ducks, geese, and all sorts of other species, but those that have completed differentiation are only ducks, pigeons, and peacocks. Perhaps the animal's species itself is one of the reasons that influences differentiation.
Xia Chuhe spotted an exceptionally plump male duck among the flock. It had a large head, thick neck, strong legs, a robust physique, and was full of energy. Its feathers were smooth and glossy, making it completely different in size from the other ducklings.
Xia Chuhe tied a rope to the duck's foot as a marker.
This duck is perfect for breeding; it absolutely meets the requirements of a five-star company—high productivity.
When Xia Chuhe picked up the duck and put it into the farm, some things fell off the duck.
Xia Chuhe picked them up and saw that they were several cards with words like "egg duck" and "meat duck" written on them.
Xia Chuhe casually tossed the card aside.
Besides the ducks, there were only three or five peacocks left in the peacock garden. Xia Chuhe lived closest to the farm, and all the peacocks there had been taken to the farm.
When I met Li Yue, she was drooling over the pigeons in the sky.
Li Yue stared longingly at Xia Chuhe, her beautiful neck bobbing up and down.
Xia Chuhe thought for a moment, then scattered a large handful of feed without a second thought. The silly pigeons, used to being fed, immediately landed on the ground and started picking up the feed to eat.
Xia Chuhe gestured for them to proceed, and Li Yue and the others began their capture without any hesitation!
The silly pigeons were enjoying their meal when they were suddenly tied up.
After gathering all the raptors they could, the group headed towards the central building.
As they walked, they came across corpses from the Birds of Prey Academy.
Li Yue occasionally introduced him to Xia Chuhe: "I know this person, he is Wang Gou from the 003 reserve force."
"And this one is Zhao Qian, a mercenary."
"This is..."
Xia Chuhe interrupted her: "Aren't you sad?"
Li Yue replied naturally, "There's nothing to be sad about. That's just how it is when you're running a dungeon."
She said frankly, "Before I came in, I was prepared to die. Well... I think the others were prepared too."
Xia Chuhe: ...
Alright, alright, you wastelanders have the most advanced view of life and death, you transcended life and death without even including me.
When Xia Chuhe returned to the central building, he saw a somewhat comical scene.
A handsome, well-built woman, covered in dust, sat on the ruins, her face cupped in her hands, staring wide-eyed at a pure white, elegant, and beautiful swan.
"You're back~" Sister Diao stretched, finding it boring to watch over the suspected geese.
Xia Chuhe looked around at the people, noticing that Lao Qin and an eagle were missing.
"Sister Diao?" Xia Chuhe asked in surprise.
"I'm so tired. What about the space you took from me before? I want to go in and sleep."
Xia Chuhe looked at the tall woman with some difficulty. The farm couldn't take in any more people, and Sister Diao might never be able to get back in.
Xia Chuhe raised his hand, revealing his wristwatch: "Why don't you give it a try?"
Diao Jie placed her hand on Xia Chuhe's hand, and Xia Chuhe subtly moved his arm so that his watch touched Diao Jie.
Sister Diao vanished instantly, performing a miraculous transformation for everyone.
Xia Chuhe: ...
Others: ...
In other people's eyes, the moment Diao Jie touched Xia Chuhe's hand, Xia Chuhe put her into his spatial storage.
How scary! ┌(。Д。)┐
Keep a quiet distance.
Xia Chuhe touched his nose, not understanding why Sister Diao was different from others. Perhaps... Sister Diao wasn't human.
Li Yue leaned close to Xia Chuhe's ear and whispered, "Sister Diao and Boss Xin look exactly alike. I remember Boss Xin should be in another instance right now. Be careful when you go out~"
Xia Chuhe painstakingly retrieved the three words "Brother Xin" from his memory.
Before entering the Animal World instance, Li Yue had said that there was only one survivor left in the Animal World – Boss Xin.
Xia Chuhe decided to go out and investigate the matter further.
Now, can anyone tell her what's going on with the central building? And what's going on with the white swan?!
She just wanted these people to destroy the posters and loudspeakers, how could they go to such extremes?
Absolutely!
Well done!
Li Qiusheng, who participated in the entire bombing of the school—no, the bombing of the small building—tells Xia Chuhe what happened.
Xia Chuhe was not surprised.
The letter left by Wuying says that the Lighthouse danced for her, implying that there are people from the Lighthouse in the instance.
As for Lao Qin, the outcome of the initial division was not quite right.
Unexpectedly, the lighthouse didn't cause any trouble and even gave her such a wonderful gift.
This left Xia Chuhe somewhat unsure of the Lighthouse's stance.
However, compared to these concerns, she was more worried about the real Lao Qin, wondering where he was now and whether he was still alive.
Wang Yan was completely confused: "What do you mean? Old Qin has evolved a new ability? Where is he? I haven't seen him since just now."
Xia Chuhe didn't know how to tell Wang Yan that the Qin in the dungeon was a fake, and that the real Qin might have been murdered.
She chose to remain silent.
"Oh, right, he also gave me this."
Li Qiusheng took out a small iron cage from his combat pack. The cage was no bigger than the palm of his hand, and inside was a hummingbird shorter than his little finger.
When the hummingbird saw Xia Chuhe, it flapped its wings at high speed.
A video was shown to everyone.
