After returning home, Ming rushed to the rooftop, picked up the squirrel that had already fainted from pain, and said, "Gosh, you've gained weight~"
Squirrel: ...
"Still able to glare at me? You'll be fine~ It's not fatal." Ming took out the ointment he bought last time, squeezed it onto his hand, and rubbed it. He held the squirrel in his palm and kneaded it, ensuring the ointment would cover its entire body... so it would heal faster.
Seeing the squirrel's contented expression, Ming was reassured. This proved that he was good at taking care of small animals. If he could go back to the time before the apocalypse, he might have become a qualified animal caretaker.
Hehe~
[Your frogs lay at the bottom of the pond watching you, not giving you any warning... They thought that if that bee could sting you... it would be considered strong...]
[Your frogs watched you swing your arm and killed the bee... They unanimously believed that You were more impressive...]
[Your Da Vinci wanted to remind you that the squirrel had its tongue out from being squeezed by you...]
"Hey, ~ didn't notice~" Ming flicked the squirrel's tongue twice, "Wake up, or else you'll become the first specimen in our home."
The squirrel woke up lively, slipped out of the man's palm, jumped onto the small coconut tree beside the rooftop, and began to gnaw at a coconut.
" is much better than Alan's." Ming turned around and threw a mantis leg off the roof, hitting the little crab on the head.
To apologize, he threw a few more mantis legs down. Watching the crab tearing at the mantis legs with its pincers, Ming felt relieved, as the little creature seemed to enjoy it.
With a wave of his hand, Ming swatted another bee. This time he didn't kill it because a dead bee meant less honey, which was not worth it. However, he might have used too much force and ended up slapping it onto a spider's web.
The little spider felt the vibration of its web and immediately pounced on the stunned bee, wrapping it with spider silk.
Ming didn't pay any more attention to it. After all, it was the bee's fate to become the spider's meal today.
He turned his head to look at the fat bird standing on the roof, thinking that today would be a feast for everyone.
[Your frogs watched you start cooking, knowing they would be having bird meat today... The frogs surfaced and hopped to the edge of the pond without seeing any more bees... However, the position they chose to squat in was carefully calculated so that they could sink back into the pond at any time...]
[Da Vinci thought it would take a while before the meal was ready, so it went downstairs to check on its snake eggs... But after seeing the little butterfly, it forgot about the snake eggs and sat on the floor chatting with the butterfly. It accidentally noticed the three snake eggs stuck together... It thought that the eggshells might have melted...]
[Foodie squatted on the shore, staring intently at the spider wrapping the bee... It saw the little spider get stung by the bee's stinger... It turned to look at you... The little spider might die...]
"What's going on today??" Ming was quite irritated, roasting the plucked fat bird on a spit, brushing it with oil, and continuing to roast, then with honey before finally turning to look at the little spider.
Well, it was already motionless on the web. It didn't get its food and even got stung by bees?
After brushing more honey on the fat bird, Ming went downstairs to check on the three eggs that had fused.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Da Vinci licking the little butterfly...
Damn~ He felt a bit envious for some reason~
[Your Da Vinci glanced at you, thinking your appearance at this moment was untimely... It wanted you to continue roasting the bird...]
[Da Vinci watched you walk out of the yard and return with a stack of cards in your hand... It suddenly felt you grabbing its leg, tossing it and the little butterfly out of the room together... They landed in the blooming flower field...]
[Da Vinci looked at the blooming growling flowers around it... It understood that Ming had created an opportunity for it... It acknowledged that you had finally grown up... Da Vinci watched the butterfly lick its tongue... Ah, why did you fly away... I, Da Vinci, have no ill intentions...]
"Why are even the frogs showing off their love today?"
Ming shook his head. The reason he took back the spiky traps outside was to let the butterfly fly further away, so it wouldn't suffer from Da Vinci's tongue.
After all, they do have not good result to be.
To prevent them from going astray, he had put in a lot of effort. As long as they couldn't touch each other, nothing would happen. This could be considered a small act of kindness every day~
Heh~
At this moment, Ming looked at the three snake eggs. Indeed, Da Vinci was right. The three snake eggs were tightly connected, and the eggshell connections had truly fused.
"What's going on?" Ming touched his nose, pondering the problem seriously. Was it because the sunlight had caused the temperature to become too high?
No, even if the temperature was high and melted, it should have melted entirely.
It must be that the snake eggs had mutated. Hopefully, they could hatch.
However, snake soup doesn't discriminate against snake species.
[Your Foodie jumped into the pond to escape the bee attack... It regretted not stopping you from bringing them home in the first place...]
[Foodie saw you return to the roof and continue roasting the bird, its aroma wafting through the air... Foodie hopped into your arms... It looked at you, wanting to tell you... Fried bees are delicious... Don't believe it? Try it tonight...]
"Don't even think about it, they are here to provide honey for our family, we can't eat them!"
Ming looked at the small bee house in the distance and made up his mind to protect the bees' safety, ensuring their descendants' prosperity for generations to come.
Half an hour later, Ming gnawed on the bird's thigh, tore off a piece of breast meat, and stuffed it into Foodie's mouth. He glanced at Da Vinci, who was still chasing the butterfly downstairs. This made him feel a bit incredulous, for the sake of love, one could go without food and drink while remaining energetic.
"Thank you, butterfly, for helping me save food."
Butterfly effect +1.
After eating and drinking their fill, Foodie returned to the pond to play with J Koi under the lotus leaves, while Ming lay in a chair and began to check today's gains.
The first one was the golden card:
[Exclusive Golden Mantis Double Wing Design Module]
[All attributes +1]
[Exclusive Attribute: Wearing it, you can realize your childhood dream, allowing you to perform short flights, with a flying distance of 100 meters and a height of 30 meters. Each flight consumes 10 units of spiritual energy and has a cooldown time of 5 minutes]
"Wings!!"
When Ming saw this card, he immediately stood up from his chair, excited. After all, he was a bit envious when he saw those mutants flying in the sky. Unexpectedly, this time, he got a pair of small wings.
Ming examined the list of materials required for the synthesis:
[Synthesis Materials: BOSS Soul Crystal1, BOSS Essence5, Sturdy Wings*10, 300 Units of Spiritual Stone]
"It seems like I should have all, right?"
"Wait, there seems to be something missing..."
