Chapter 226 Not Only Didn’t Lose Weight, I Gained Weight
"Hahaha……"
Zhou Xu, who was out of danger in an instant, couldn't help but laugh out loud as he watched the two wild wolves biting each other.
All I can say is that the power this mantra brings to him makes him extremely happy when facing beasts.
However, he did not continue to control them. After seeing that the two wolves were almost going crazy, he lifted the mantra of 'Beast Soldier Control'.
After all, the cost of using 'Beast Soldier Control' to control living creatures is still very high.
Moreover, these beasts were beasts in nature. After being bitten by each other madly, they soon became blood-thirsty. Who would care whether they knew each other or not? Even though Zhou Xu had released the truth, the two did not stop biting each other.
Seeing this, Zhou Xu ignored the two wild wolves and let them fight if they wanted. He pulled the reins and rode away on his horse.
The main purpose of hunting the wolves this time, in addition to adding to their own skeleton wolf troops, is to train the combat capabilities of their cavalry team.
In this situation, Zhou Xu didn't intend to get too involved.
His existence is more of an insurance policy. If the situation gets out of control, he can directly use the mantra of "Beast Soldier Control" to stabilize the situation.
It was not easy for him to train a group of soldiers, and it was even more difficult to tame war horses, but he had no intention of losing a few in this kind of hunting training.
Fortunately, the soldiers, led by Li Ce, have performed very well so far, and there is nothing that requires his intervention.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the wolves quickly fled in all directions.
Li Ce did not chase after them for long. He chose a direction and led his cavalry team to chase and shoot two wild wolves before giving up.
From the beginning to the end of the battle, everything actually happened very quickly.
This wolf pack has suffered many attacks and even lost a wolf king. It is now no longer a force to be reckoned with.
When the wolves saw that they couldn't win, they quickly chose to escape, ending the battle in a short time.
Pick up the arrows that were shot and take away the wild wolves that were shot.
While his men were busy like this, Zhou Xu was riding his horse slowly around the grassland area.
Of course, he was not just wandering around, but was using the "Eye of Insight" to "scan" the surroundings to see if he could find anything good.
In the past, due to their strength, they basically had to keep their heads down and guard their own piece of land, for fear that other forces on the grassland would come and bring them a catastrophic disaster.
But things change over time! They are no longer the same as they were before.
With the changes in strength and status, their cavalry can now gallop freely on the grassland.
As a result, the scope of their exploration on the grassland was greatly increased, which was one of the main reasons why Zhou Xu chose to follow along.
But unfortunately, he has gained nothing so far.
Just then, Li Ce rode over on his horse.
"Chief, we have recovered all the arrows. This time we have shot and killed a total of twelve wild wolves!"
In such a brief confrontation with the wolves, this record can be said to be quite impressive.
Without further ado, Zhou Xu glanced at the sky. It was getting late, so the group went straight back to the village.
He didn't need to worry about dealing with the corpses. During the battle, Zhou Xu, who had made various attempts to use the power of his newly unlocked mantra combination, was a little tired now.
It turns out that controlling those adult wolves is more exhausting than controlling those six little wolf cubs.
[This should be related to the tenacity of willpower. When I was controlling the cattle and horses in the village before, it was not that difficult. Is it because the cattle and horses in the village have been tamed by us, so they don’t have that much resistance to my orders? ]
While Zhou Xu was thinking about this matter, he returned to his residence, prepared to tinker with it a bit, and then go to have dinner.
As a result, as soon as he entered the room, the bright light that caught his eyes when he turned around made Zhou Xu stunned for a moment.
It was getting close to evening, and the setting sun shone through the window sill beside his bed, illuminating the figure sitting upright on his bed.
The soft hair glowed with a metallic luster under the setting sun.
The owner of the hair was licking his paw intently at the moment. After hearing the noise, he turned his head slowly.
“Ah~”
"Chitose?!"
Zhou Xu arrived unexpectedly. Calculating the time, it has only been more than half a month since Qiansui swallowed the essence and blood and fell into a deep sleep.
You know, Qiansui slept directly from summer to autumn before, and the time difference is really huge.
But it's not like he has no idea at all.
[The length of the sleeping time should be related to the absorption efficiency. Qiansui had just been born, and that drop of blood essence was too strong for it, so it absorbed very slowly.]
[But now it’s different. It absorbed blood essence right after it was born, and the Qiansui has a strong foundation. At the same time, it has grown up, so when it absorbs blood essence again, its efficiency will naturally be higher.]
Just as Zhou Xu was organizing his thoughts, Qiansui had already run up to him in small steps and started rubbing against him.
Zhou Xu saw this and immediately understood...
"Xiaoshan, Qiansui is awake, go get some meat!"
After instructing Zhang Xiaoshan to prepare the food, Zhou Xu's gaze fell on Qiansui again, and he bent down and picked him up.
"My goodness, you've been sleeping for more than half a month, and not only haven't you lost weight, you've gained weight?!"
The moment he took it in his hand, he felt the change in weight and was shocked.
“Ouch!”
In response, Chitose swung his tail, which was like a big broom, in protest.
Zhou Xu quickly calmed it down, while carefully observing the changes in Qiansui's body.
As the person who raised Chitose from childhood to adulthood, he is still very sensitive to the changes in Chitose.
In the sunset, he reached out and stroked the thousand-year-old fur. Its fur was as smooth as high-quality fur and shiny in the sun.
But now it has changed and started to emit a metallic luster.
At the same time, the color of the fur also changed from the original brown to a color that is more like dark gold.
During the process of touching, Zhou Xu also felt a sense of bonyness.
But it's not the kind of skinny feeling that comes from being skinny, but the kind of skinny feeling that comes from having strong bones! In the past, Chitose felt plump and fleshy to the touch, and you couldn't feel any bones at all, and it felt very comfortable.
But now, Qiansui's fleshy feel has disappeared, and he feels a little rough to the touch, but his weight has increased instead of decreased. This can only mean one thing, that is, Qiansui's bones have become stronger than before!
