Under the dark night sky, moonlight filtered through the dense foliage, scattering sparsely across the ground.
Two figures were running quickly through the forest. In front was a level 2 mutated leopard, desperately trying to escape, and behind was a flesh-colored giant wolf, which was none other than Afu.
After spending a few days here, A-Liu had tamed all the mutated plants in the forest. Now that A-Fu was chasing the leopard, the mutated plants in front of the leopard started to cause trouble. One moment they would stick out a branch to trip it up, and the next moment the path ahead would be filled with thorns, forcing it to take a detour.
Within minutes, Afu successfully caught up with the mutated leopard. With its 9-meter length, the leopard would be instantly killed if it was caught.
After Afu caught up with the leopard and killed it, the mutated trees swayed gently, as if praising Afu's prowess. Afu, still holding the leopard's neck, rolled its eyes. Did it think it was like A-Shou's stupid dog, abandoning its prey after being praised a few times? Don't even think about it!
It pretended not to see it and quickly left with the leopard's carcass in its mouth.
After it left, the branches of the mutated plants drooped down, and sure enough, they encountered the dog. They had all worked for nothing. Thinking about it, the other dog was better. They only needed to help out and give it a compliment, and they would get a treat.
Afu carried the leopard back to the fortress, and sure enough, he saw that Ashou had not brought back any prey. It wasn't that he hadn't caught any, but that he had fed the mutated plants here after catching them.
Afu placed the prey on the ground and plopped down under Aliu's tree. He didn't comment on Ashou's wasteful behavior. The prey they brought back wasn't actually their food. The reason they hunted every day was simply to train themselves.
Since its owner hadn't said anything to Ashou, it didn't need to scold it either. But it was still too lazy to look at Ashou, so it closed its eyes to rest and ignored it.
Ah Shou strutted proudly on the platform with its tail held high, clearly taking the flattery and praise of the plants seriously.
A-Liu couldn't stand it anymore, so she stretched out a willow branch, grabbed the guy by his hind legs, and hoisted him into the air. No matter how much A-Shou struggled, she wouldn't let go. What's with the attitude? His strength is so weak, and he believes a little flattery? His tail is wagging so high! He needs to be taught a lesson!
It doesn't even bring back the prey it hunts. It's so generous; it shouldn't be fed!
"Awoooooo..." Ah Shou struggled and howled.
At this moment, Lin Ruo finished her physical training. She withdrew her spatial domain, and the extraordinary gravity immediately disappeared. She collapsed to the ground, her face pale and covered in cold sweat.
Because she had been maintaining the spatial domain and manipulating gravity for a long time, her mental energy was being rapidly depleted. Now it was completely exhausted, and she was experiencing intense pain from mental exhaustion again.
She quickly picked up the crystal cores she had prepared and began to restore her powers. As for Ah Shou's screams, she certainly heard them, but Ah Liu didn't knock on her window, nor did she hear Ah Fu's cries, which meant they were just playing around, so she didn't need to pay attention to them.
Two hours later, her powers were restored, Lin Ruo's complexion became rosy, and her mental strength increased again.
She stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Usually at this time she would study the usage of mimicry, but not today. She had important things to do today.
Poor Ah Shou was hung up until Lin Ruo finished her cultivation. When Ah Liu finally let her down, Ah Shou lay flat on the ground and refused to get up, saying that landing felt so good!
Lin Ruo washed off the sticky sweat in the bathroom and came out to see Ah Shou lying on the ground looking aggrieved, his backside facing Ah Fu and Ah Liu. The other two were watching TV and didn't seem to care about comforting Ah Shou.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ruo walked over with a light laugh and patted Ah Shou's big nose.
"Woo woo woo..." A-Shou nudged Lin Ruo's palm with its nose, trying to describe to Lin Ruo the scene of A-Liu bullying it just now, but Lin Ruo couldn't understand, so she turned to look at A-Liu.
A-Liu pointed to the mutated beast placed on the platform outside. Lin Ruo followed the direction of the willow branch and immediately understood why A-Shou had been dealt with by A-Liu.
She patted Ah Shou's nose and said, "We're only staying here temporarily. The mutated plants outside are different from the mutated plants at home. We won't take them away even if we feed them. Besides, we need to be realistic and not believe everything they say just because they praise us."
Ah Shou tilted his head and thought for a moment. He didn't understand the rest of what was said, only the beginning: "They won't take it away = they've fed it for nothing = they've lost a lot of mutated beast meat." He turned to look at Ah Fu and saw Ah Fu rolling his eyes at him.
Ah Shou immediately lowered its head; it had lost a lot of mutated beast meat.
Lin Ruo patted its big face, "It's okay, just don't do it again. We're just staying here temporarily. If things go smoothly at the A City base today, we can set off for home tomorrow."
The three dogs were overjoyed to hear they were going home. Although this place was nice, they still preferred their previous home.
"Let's go, come with me to see my old friends." Lin Ruo tidied herself up a bit and set off with Afu and Ashou for the A City base. Today was the day she was going to the A City base to collect the results.
She rode Ah Shou along the road under the moonlight, with Ah Fu leading the way. An hour later, they arrived near the A City base. She put Ah Fu and Ah Shou into her spatial storage, then concealed herself and went to the gate of the A City base.
It was past midnight, and the area outside the A City base was bustling with activity. However, Lin Ruo noticed something different: two unfamiliar superhumans were standing outside the A City base, checking all the survivors entering the base.
Lin Ruo scratched her brow. It seemed to be a consequence of her killing Brother Liu and his gang a week ago. These two superhumans were probably there to guard against her.
But she never went through the main gate. She ran quickly to the base of the city wall, jumped, and used her agile body to flip and propel herself over the wall, landing on the land outside the A City base.
The outer environment was no different from when she last came, so she did not use her mental energy to search again, but moved quickly toward the middle gate.
Skipping over the middle-level gate, Lin Ruo darted through the middle-level streets, found a secluded spot, removed the invisibility water membrane from her body, revealing her entire body, and put on a black mask to cover her face.
She emerged from the corner of the alley, dusted off imaginary dust, and strolled slowly toward the trading market. Pedestrians hurried past, and several patrol teams had sprung up around her, each soldier with a serious expression and gripping their weapon tightly, as if something major had happened.
Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow slightly. Did Brother Liu and his group have such a large influence? They only killed a dozen or so people, yet they could put the A City base on high alert like this?
