Jiang Zhi stood steadily on the box, gazing absently at the black mass in the distance.
She found the mutated animal seeds that Huo Xi had mentioned earlier. Huo Xi was about to have an urgent discussion with Jiang Zhi when she saw Jiang Zhi summon a large horned cat with her bare hands, flip herself onto the cat's back, and in the blink of an eye, she was in the midst of the mutated beasts.
If it weren't for the alertness honed through years of battlefield experience, Hoshi would have almost frozen in place. But he couldn't; the mutated beasts were rampaging.
Wang Wan moved away a mutated beast that had just bitten off a warrior's neck, and just then he saw Jiang Zhi charging into the mutated beast horde, which made him very happy.
As expected of the boss!
When Chen Kun first saw Jiang Zhi's cat transform, he also found it incredible. Could mutated beasts develop in this direction?
This matter needs to be clarified.
Besides environmental threats, humanity also faces attacks from these mutated beasts. If these mutated beasts can be tamed, peace and tranquility for humanity will be just around the corner.
The black creature, perched on the back of a long, pointed beak, sensed the approaching danger and frantically flapped its wings, stirring up waves of snow.
The snow waves formed a small storm, rushing towards Jiang Zhi's face.
Jiang Zhi's eyes narrowed, and the storm was actually suppressed and fell to the ground.
The sharp beak of the bird was crushed off, emitting a shrill scream. Jiang Zhi covered Wanfu's ears.
The black ball seemed to be enraged by Jiang Zhi's actions and controlled more mutated beasts to attack her.
Without exception, their necks were all broken.
Win people over with virtue!
The gold bricks were unleashed, sweeping across the ground and shattering flesh and blood into pieces.
The mutated beasts seemed fearless, charging upwards relentlessly.
Jiang Zhicai wouldn't indulge them.
“Baby, jump out!” Jiang Zhi patted Wanfu.
"Understood!" Wanfu pushed off with his hind legs, and his forelimbs quickly climbed onto the back of the mutated elephant, digging deep into its skin and causing it excruciating pain.
Then the cat climbed onto the back of the mutated elephant and leaped away, breaking free from the mutated beasts' encirclement.
Jiang Zhi casually smashed the mutated elephant's six- or seven-meter-long trunk, depriving it of its weapon of attack.
"Mom, what's that thing?" Wanfu felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had met someone of his own kind.
Jiang Zhi saw it clearly this time; the black ball of fur was clearly a black cat.
The black cat was curled up in a ball, looking like a black dot from a distance. Jiang Zhi took out the reinforced iron net from her spatial storage; she had specifically asked Yan Zhi to make it.
Upon hearing the term "mutant animal seed," she had a strong intuition that it wasn't very valuable, and since the base wanted to capture it alive, she naturally wouldn't refuse.
Jiang Zhi strapped skis to her feet, jumped nimbly into the snow, and used the momentum to move forward.
The black mass realized the danger and hurriedly fled.
Jiang Zhi pressed down like Mount Tai, and the creature's short legs seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move. Jiang Zhi, together with Wan Fu, threw out an iron net and caught the black mass in one swift motion.
At this moment, the anesthetic came in handy, and Jiang Zhi gave the guy a full injection.
The thing was about the size of four or five basketballs. After Jiang Zhi tied it up tightly, she stuffed a pebble into its mouth and hung it on Wan Fu.
The mutated animals lost control of the seed and instantly lost their attack logic, causing the group to scatter.
The superhumans realized this and intensified their counterattack. Soon, the beast tide was extinguished at the cost of three superhumans.
Some of the mutated beasts escaped, making people grit their teeth in hatred.
"Damn it, if there's a next time, I'll tear this beast to pieces."
"Damn it! It's my fault for not protecting Lao Liu."
"And Lao He too!"
"Sigh, I still don't know how to explain this to Da Jie's wife."
"Alright, collect all the remains of the fallen soldiers properly, and go clean up the battlefield. Don't miss anything of value, especially the crystals!" Hoshi seemed to have become accustomed to the sacrifices.
He was heartbroken, but what could he do? Sacrifice was inevitable, and he might eventually die in this disaster as well.
He had made preparations long ago, and so had everyone else; they had all written their wills before leaving home.
Jiang Zhi tossed the black fur ball in front of him, took off her gloves, clapped her hands, and said, "A mutated black cat. It looks somewhat like a pet cat."
Huo Xi stared at Wanfu, who had shrunk in size, and asked curiously, "Was yours also a mutated pet cat?"
"I guess so. I can't control mutated beasts, otherwise I would have unified the beast world with them long ago," Jiang Zhi joked.
Huo Xi nodded. This was Jiang Zhi's secret, and he shouldn't pry.
Moreover, Jiang Zhi's position was far above his.
Don't pry into your superiors' affairs.
Huo Xi immediately had someone put the black fur ball into the carriage. As for why the black fur ball was not moving, he did not ask. Jiang Zhi took the initiative to say, "It was given anesthesia. It may wake up in the middle of the journey, so we need to continue the anesthesia."
"Understood, thank you Minister Jiang." Huo Xi invited Jiang Zhi to rest in the cabin while he led his men to retrieve the crystal.
There were 364 superhumans this time, and more than 400 mutated beasts. Some escaped, leaving 409.
The strength-type ability user used a knife enhanced by the metal-type ability user, capable of cutting through iron like mud, to dissect the edible mutated animals on the spot. For the inedible ones, they collected the venom and useful parts from their bodies and took them back to the base for research.
The space-type ability users collected what was edible, and packed the inedible items into cargo boxes, which were then transported back by robots.
Important energy sources like crystals are submitted by individuals, and then the base allocates crystals and points accordingly.
Wanfu nestled beside Jiang Zhi, who was now alone in the cabin. Jiang Zhi drew the curtain and took out some beef jerky to eat. She ate a piece, and Wanfu ate a piece.
She roasted the beef jerky herself; it was plain and not very strong in flavor, making it perfect as a snack in the apocalypse.
Upon returning to the base, Jiang Zhi received a golden crystal.
"This little black thing is actually a black cat mutant, and it even has traces of a pet cat on it. I remember that Minister Jiang also had a pet mutant cat. Could it be that pet cats are smarter than ordinary wild animals?" Lab technician Lu Yayun asked in confusion.
"Not entirely. Minister Jiang's cat seems to have mutated due to a special environment, while the environment in which this cat mutated is still unknown. Let's do a CT scan to see if there are any crystals in its brain."
"Actually, I'm really curious whether Minister Jiang's cat has any crystals in its brain."
"Shut up! Minister Jiang is very sensitive about this. Her servant Wanfu is under tight protection. Wanfu must not be arrested for testing, otherwise, if Minister Jiang gets angry, millions of corpses will be floating in the water."
"It's not that exaggerated."
The two performed a CT scan on the mutated black cat and found a crystalline shadow in its brain. The shadow was not clear and appeared to be transparent.
"Wow, I heard that Minister Jiang captured it all by himself! Minister Jiang's superpower must be more than level 11, right? General Huo Xi would need firearms to capture a high-level mutated beast."
At this moment, Pang Tongming, the head of the Mutant Animals Department, walked in wearing protective clothing.
"Shh, stop talking."
