Chapter 49
Jiang Zihan skillfully took out a small basket, put some meat he carried with him in it and asked the Silver Rock Lynx to take it. Seeing that the other party had no intention of taking the little lynx with him, he had to accept his fate and take the cub back.
The supervisors looked back every few steps, fearing that a few more "parents" would emerge from some corner to bring their cubs to the door. Unfortunately, this scene did not happen until they returned to the gathering place.
Jiang Zihan placed the sleeping cub into the incubator with familiarity. She did not use any mental power during the whole process, nor did she arouse the other party's vigilance. Perhaps her body was also imbued with a similar "war beast-friendly" aura during the long time she spent with the war beast.
Fan Yun lay in front of the incubator, staring at the cub with curiosity. Jiang Zihan raised an eyebrow: "Did you see anything?"
Fan Yun looked up, his eyes shining: "Can I test the distortion of this cub?"
Jiang Zihan was stunned. He had already scanned the system when he just came back, but forgot to tell others about it. So he nodded: "Sure, you can do it."
After getting approval, Fan Yun skillfully placed the instruments one by one, gently and methodically holding the little lynx, his eyes nervously fixed on the instrument screen.
32%.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Fan Yun's eyes. The number was a little higher than he had imagined, but for a war beast grown in the wild, this number was already quite good. He was just being greedy.
Jiang Zihan's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked calmly, "How do you usually deal with cubs in special situations like this at your War Beast Breeding Center?"
Fan Yun replied without even looking up, "According to procedures, the institute will assign dedicated trainers to take care of the beasts. Nutritionists will prepare nutritious meals based on the war beasts' physical data every day, and the trainers will submit observation reports for different periods of time every day."
Jiang Zihan swiped a few times on the tablet, quickly modified some data, and then handed it over: "Then you will be in charge of this cub from now on. Are you capable of it?"
Fan Yun was completely stunned.
Jiang Zihan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, this cub is in good condition. Just feed it according to this nutritious meal. Of course, don't be too careless, or you'll be punished by the 'parents'."
Fan Yun stared at Jiang Zihan's back, then stared blankly at his tablet. He quickly scanned the list and couldn't help but frown. Isn't this a bit too much?
This plan was quite different from the one at the nursery, but out of respect for Dr. Jiang, he still did it.
The system was a little puzzled: "Why don't you let me calculate the ratio of the nutritious meal?"
Jiang Zihan pressed its head and turned it around: "Is there something wrong with my matching?"
The data on the screen flashed rapidly. After a moment, it tilted its head and said, "It's almost the same as I calculated... Did you do it this way?"
Jiang Zihan straightened his back silently: "Practice makes perfect."
The screen was in chaos for a few moments, and suddenly I felt a panic that I was about to lose my job. I quickly searched for some information in my huge database: "I have some surgical videos here, do you want to see them?"
Jiang Zihan was immediately moved: "Transfer it to me."
While she was concentrating on virtual practice following the video, several lynxes came down the mountain, led by a pure black lynx. Fan Yun recognized that it was a thunder-backed lynx. The total number of lynxes in the entire galaxy did not exceed one hand, because this was a wild mutant, and there was actually one hiding on this not-so-big isolated island.
And judging from the color and appearance, it is very likely the little lynx's biological mother.
He stood far away holding the lynx cubs, watching the lynxes with wounds of varying sizes eating their nutritious meals cautiously, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
If this island hadn't been chosen, there might have been more wild war beasts, right? But it was too late to say anything now.
This group of lynxes were placed in the recuperation cabin one by one.
This is probably the largest number of war beasts this cabin has accommodated since its construction.
After seeing these injured people, the resident in Jicheng considerately gave up his own nest and walked slowly towards the empty greenhouse. He remembered that he could sleep there, so he nestled in there as if he was familiar with the place, and soon began to snore comfortably.
The hand that Fan Yun recorded left an afterimage. It was a very strange phenomenon. There was a bit of weirdness in the calmness. How come he didn't know that Jicheng had such a good temper?
"Have you taken care of Jicheng before?" Suddenly a voice came from behind.
Fan Yun was startled and turned around to see a pale face. He immediately became worried: "Doctor Jiang, are you sick?"
"No, I just stayed up all night." Jiang Zihan waved his hand. "Do you know how to treat the wound?"
After getting a positive answer, she waved, "Come and help."
These new war beasts still have wounds of varying sizes on their bodies. The weather is gradually getting warmer, and if they are not treated in time, they are likely to rot.
What surprised Jiang Zihan was that Fan Yun's treatment method was very professional. He said that he was a graduate of a regular medical school, so a minor operation like treating the wound was not a problem for him at all.
Jiang Zihan suddenly understood why the War Beast Training Institute had sent him here. She gestured outside and asked, "How do you think Jicheng is doing now compared to before?"
Fan Yun said seriously, "Jicheng stayed in the War Beast Breeding Institute for a while. I helped the teacher take care of him, but he wasn't as quiet as he is now."
She guessed he was very manic because he wasn't quiet. Although he looked old, he was used to fighting on the battlefield. His condition when he was first sent to the training center was definitely not as bad as it was later. If he had a little more energy, he would probably overturn the training cabin at any time.
Jiang Zihan sighed. "If you had countless bone spurs sticking out of your body, you'd probably be even more restless. What do you think distortion is?"
"A type of uncontrollable abnormal energy that, while granting special abilities, also causes physiological changes in an organism, accompanied by organ failure and mental disorder."
Jiang Zihan scratched his face: "So do you think distortion is necessarily a bad thing?"
Fan Yun shook his head: "When war beasts first appeared, it was because of distortion. As long as it is within the controllable range, distortion can increase the strength of war beasts."
Therefore, there were laboratories conducting research on distortion from the beginning, but as the project progressed, the distortion outbreaks became more and more serious. By the time the Federation reacted, the distortion had already broken out in the safe zone.
"The war beast itself has very strong physical fitness. If we slowly guide it in the early stage of deformation, it can digest the deformation energy. This is the opportunity for evolution." Jiang Zihan disinfected the scalpel and gently cut open the pus-oozing wound on the back of the thunder-backed lynx. Several granulations could not wait to drill out.
Fan Yun closely watched her movements as she quickly removed the granulations. "Deformations like these that will clearly harm the beast can be completely removed."
"But these wounds that have been infected by the deformation will soon rot, and the rate of deterioration will be several times faster than before." Fan Yun protested lightly. It's not that they didn't take action, but they just suffered double the sacrifice in return. If they didn't undergo surgery and only suppressed the disease, they could live longer.
According to the teacher, he once couldn't tell whether more war beasts died on the operating table or those whose normal bodies were deformed or worsened. They were already afraid.
Just when everyone thought that surgery was useless for deformities, Jiang Zihan appeared. After she performed the surgery, the war beasts were still alive and well, which was simply a miracle.
How did she do it?
Everyone who has come into contact with a deformed beast has this question, but only Fan Yun asked it.
Jiang Zihan smiled. She had been using ordinary scalpels to perform surgeries these days. Although the effects were not as significant as those of a special scalpel, they were not worse, which meant that her experiment was useful.
"I adjusted their nutritional formula before the surgery. The war beasts need to consume more energy to resist the distortion in their bodies. Specific nutrients can reduce the activity of the distortion energy. Of course, this is only temporary, but it's enough for the war beasts to survive the surgery."
Fan Yun watched in shock as Jiang Zihan removed all the deformed parts, leaving only the two largest bulges. She sutured the wounds and quickly applied a layer of gel. "This is a special gel produced in our settlement. It can speed up wound healing. Combined with an inhibitor, it can extend the suppression time by a day or two. If the war beast is physically strong enough, two days will be enough for the wound to heal."
Fan Yun pointed blankly at the remaining bump: "What about these two? Why not remove them together?"
"Ah, this?" Jiang Zihan tilted his head and thought for a moment. "It's impossible to completely eliminate the distortion in its body. If you remove all the distortion points, they will grow in other places next time. It's better to drain than to block."
As for how to dredge it, Jiang Zihan did not explain further, so Fan Yun could only squat in the recuperation cabin to find the answer by himself.
In order to replenish energy, the Thunderback Lynx doubled the amount of its nutritious meals. After three big meals, I don’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the bulge on his back had become a little bigger.
He submitted an observation report every day as usual. As the bump grew bigger, there were more and more shocking exclamation marks on his report. But Jiang Zihan just came over and left every time. However, he got a new nutritional meal ratio every day.
Fan Yun was extremely nervous every day, fearing that the little lynx he was taking care of would suddenly lose its mother.
A week later, Fan Yun, who had finally fallen asleep, suddenly felt a gust of wind, accompanied by a slight "creaking" sound. He frowned uneasily. Where did the wind come from in the room?
He opened his eyes hesitantly, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his breath was choked and his eyes almost popped out.
Two cracks appeared on the bulge on the back of the thunder-backed lynx, as if it was cut open by a sharp knife. The shiny black bone pushed the bulge open, making a creaking sound, which was the sound of the bone joints slowly extending and pushing.
The thin membrane of periosteum spread out on the wing bones, tightly wrapping every bone joint, and shining with a strange brilliance under the lighting in the cabin.
Fan Yun was stunned for a few seconds, and couldn't help but slap himself, "Hiss!"
It hurts! So this isn't a dream!
He staggered up from the camp bed and rushed out the door in a panic: "It's born! It's born!!"
A figure quickly rushed out from the nearest large kitchen. Kui Feng grabbed a large soup spoon in shock: "Who gave birth?" He hadn't received any request to prepare meals for the mother?
"Bone wings! The Thunderback Lynx has grown a pair of bone wings!!" Fan Yun's heart was still pounding, and his face flushed red. This was something he had never imagined. All researchers believed that distortions and superpowers were uncontrollable, but Dr. Jiang, using actual cases, had shown him that distortions could be channeled and superpowers could be promoted!
He took a deep breath. He had to stay, he had to stay, so that he could find more ways to treat the war beasts!
Beside the planting field, Lin Na heard the movement near the maintenance cabin and couldn't help but smile and shake his head. He raised his hand and a thin layer of atomized water curtain was evenly spread into the field.
During this period, his abilities have also been improved to some extent, at least it has become more convenient for him to take care of the farmland.
Lu Renshuang suddenly came over and patted him on the shoulder. "This batch of spring wheat is almost ripe. After the harvest, this place will be empty. Do you want to try to contract a piece of land?"
Linna's eyes lit up instantly: "Can I? I can plant anything?"
Lu Renshuang nodded: "Just hand over a portion of the harvest to the gathering place on time, and you can arrange the rest yourself."
Lin Na was immediately tempted: "Then I'll focus on other things. Eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, I want them all!"
"You're a bit greedy, Xiaolin." Ye Sheng, carrying his hoe, turned to ask Lu Renshuang, "Why did you suddenly open up the contract? Are those supervisors making any moves?"
Lu Renshuang nodded: "They already understand the general situation. Apart from other matters, helping to expand the base is basically settled."
Ye Sheng stamped his feet excitedly: "That's great! I want to contract a piece too. Then I'll have plenty of watermelons and melons! Xiaolin, come and help me too. You can eat as much of my melons as you want!"
Linna smiled and nodded, watching them continue to discuss the planting plan, and couldn't help but look back at the gathering place.
We are finally going to build a base here...
