"But fortunately, I don't have to be forced to do hard labor anymore, it's great"!
Lei Min shrugged and was about to go back and tell Lin Qingqing the news.
But as soon as I reached the center of the town, I saw a large group of people gathered around.
"what happened"?
Looking at the group of people gathered on the street in the middle of the town, Lei Min leaned over curiously.
"There are people injured"?
On the road, a trail of blood stretched from the outside into the crowd.
"Amin went hunting and was bitten by a jackal."
Jackal? What it is? Wild dog? Don’t they have guns? How could they still be bitten? Lei Min was a little puzzled.
Someone should be treating the wounded inside, but unfortunately there were too many people around, so she couldn't squeeze in and couldn't see the wounded.
The hunting teams in Baishi Town are all in one group, and everyone is equipped with firearms and weapons. Moreover, there are many people with super powers among them. She really couldn't imagine what kind of jackal could bite someone with such sophisticated equipment?
"Oh, this is the third time this month, right?"
"Yes, Amin is much more serious this time. I heard that one of his hands is broken."
"No, that's a jackal. All jackals in our mountains can eat people!"
Three times a month? Lei Min listened to the discussion of the surrounding villagers and felt something was wrong.
She thought for a moment and grabbed a villager next to her and asked, "Uncle, those two people were also bitten by jackals before? How are they doing?"
"No, the first one was bitten by a snake. I don't know why. The snake was so vicious at the beginning of spring this year. The other one was indeed bitten by a jackal, but it was not as serious as Amin's time."
"That's it," Lei Min thought thoughtfully. Snakes bite people and jackals bite people. Could it be that they encountered zombie animals?
When she heard about jackals before, she immediately thought of the ranger's zombie dog they met.
"But if it is really a zombie animal, then why didn't the person who was bitten turn into a zombie?"
I can’t figure it out…
Lei Min scratched his head and prepared to go back and tell Lin Qingqing about this matter. She always felt something was strange.
At this moment, Lin Qingqing also knew about this matter. Baishi Town itself was not big, so it was impossible to hide any slight disturbances.
"Captain, someone in the town was injured. I heard it was a jackal bite. This is the third time this month!" As soon as Lei Min saw Lin Qingqing, he told what he had just seen.
"Do the jackals here often hurt people?"
Lin Qingqing was stunned. Jackals in the mountains usually only kill a few livestock. It is indeed strange to attack humans so frequently.
"I've never heard of it before. The villagers said they only saw it once or twice when I was a child. Now I haven't seen any sign of a jackal for a long time."
"If that's the case, then the animals in the mountains must have suffered some change, either because they lacked food, or because humans threatened their survival, or..." Lin Qingqing tried to analyze the reason, and then she suddenly paused.
"They mutated"!
"Mutant animals"?
Lei Min, like her, also remembered the group of mutant cats he encountered before.
"Captain, there are mountains everywhere here"! Lei Min almost broke out in a cold sweat.
The reason why they left the park and went to the base in the first place was because they were afraid of encountering mutant animals. After so long, I went round and round and finally walked into the mountains.
"What should we do? There are mutated zombies in the city and mutated animals in the mountains. Where else can we go in the future?"
Lei Min anxiously circled around the house. When he saw Wen Ling and Qu Xingchi looking confused, he told them in a few words about the mutated cat they met before. The two of them were stunned for a moment.
"Animals can also mutate"?
Although they have never seen mutated animals, Lei Min has never been so anxious even when encountering level 2 zombies before, which shows how terrifying mutated animals are.
Not sure what the captain had in mind, the three of them looked at Lin Qingqing in tacit understanding.
"What are you looking at me for?"
Lin Qingqing came back to her senses and asked strangely.
"What should we do about that mutated animal"?
"What should I do? Do whatever you have to do. It's just a guess now. We'll wait until they actually appear!"
"that's all"? Lei Min asked incredulously.
"Otherwise? You are now at the second level, and you have new weapons and guns, so you are a little more confident, okay?" Lin Qingqing looked at her funny. It seemed that the mutant cat had left a deep shadow on Lei Min.
"Um...that's true"!
Lei Min breathed a sigh of relief. She was also frightened by the villagers just now, or maybe the group of mutant cats left a deep impression on her, so subconsciously, she always felt that mutant animals must be better than mutant zombies. A more powerful existence.
"Those injured villagers are ordinary people, and injuries during hunting are inevitable. The animals may have mutated, but we are not invincible. I was wrong."
Seeing Lin Qingqing's calm look, Lei Min grinned sheepishly, and then talked about Yin Yaxiu's plan to use crystal cores to transform weapons.
This news is much more exciting than the news about mutated animals hurting people just now.
"No wonder she only wants the crystal core as payment, it turns out she had this idea a long time ago"!
Lin Qingqing couldn't help but admire that woman's imagination. If she could really come up with a weapon with a crystal core, she would truly be a "master". At least at this stage, they had never seen a weapon with a crystal core.
Yin Yaxiu spent several days in seclusion at home, and finally made the whip with Lei Min's anxious anticipation.
"What's this"?
Lei Min pointed at the ugly short stick on the table and said.
Don't tell her that this thing is her whip. The cool and explosive thunder whip that she has been waiting for so much is just a handle and a steel pipe?
"Your whip, what else could it be?" Yin Yaxiu pinched the bridge of her nose and said.
After saying that, she stretched out and prepared to go back and have a good sleep. She was really exhausted from not sleeping for the past few days.
"Just give me a moment"! Lei Min quickly grabbed Yin Yaxiu, who was already swaying a little.
"What's wrong? You can't use it"? Yin Yaxiu glanced at her with contempt and said.
"Who knows how to use this thing?" Lei Min pointed at the thing that looked like a sword hilt and a gun barrel randomly spliced together.
"You're so stupid, go find your captain! Let her teach you, I need to catch up on my sleep, don't disturb me"! After saying that, Yin Yaxiu raised her feet and walked towards the back room.
"Oh, by the way, remember to ask your captain to compensate me for the materials, I only want the crystal core"!
"Hello"!
Seeing that he was locked out again, Lei Min felt angry and itched his teeth.
"Damn woman, just wait for me. If you dare to fool me, I will blow up your little yard!"
After clenching her fists and saying harsh words, she carried this strange thing back to her residence in disgust.
