Transmigrated as the Domesticated Rabbit of the Sick and Frail Villain in the Apocalypse

Chapter 35.2 – Wen Renjing Who Came From a Family of Hunters (2/4)

Jin Yang, who had never been fond of talking, seemed to be particularly interested in the subject of mutated animals.
“Apart from these, are there any special types of mutated animals?” he asked.

Liu Meng was a little surprised.
He didn’t expect that he would ask about this.
“Yes, there are,” he replied, “but they sounded really fake.
The higher-ups classified a type of animal as level five.
They said that…”

He lowered his voice, and his face filled with disbelief, “They said that there are animals that can behave like humans, understand human language, and think.
Isn’t this bullshit? Do they think they are living in a fairy tale? The higher-ups even said that whoever captures such a demon-like mutated animal and sends it to City B will not only be granted legal residency but also be provided food for three years.
I think it’s all nonsense.”

Jin Yang’s expression remained unchanged as he cast a calm glance at the pup behind him.
It seemed that the black wolf was quite valuable, with legal residency and food for three years.

“Then, are there mutated animals that can transform into humans?”

Yin Yiliu was initially nestling in the soft fur of the little wolf and basking in the sun.
After what happened last night, she felt that she and the little wolf were already ‘friends who had gone through life and death together’, and the little wolf even found out about her biggest secret.
So she unceremoniously clung to the impatient pup, lying comfortably in its soft and thick fur.
Even Jin Yang was left out.

After having gone through the incidents last night, she recalled the entire storyline that she could remember in the original book again, but she still had no idea about what caused the apocalypse.
She couldn’t help but scold the author in her heart for being irresponsible by leaving the novel open-ended, and the author didn’t even mention the cause of the apocalypse.

She had been uninterested in everything all day long today, simply thinking about life on the back of the little wolf.

The conversation between Jin Yang and Liu Meng was loud enough for Yin Yiliu to hear everything.
She secretly nodded her head, thinking that the classification of mutated animals was no different from what was written in the book.
She then heard Jin Yang casually asking about the transformation of animals into humans.

Her heart pounded.
Why did Jin Yang ask that? Did he find out about something?

Yin Yiliu silently comforted herself that perhaps her Big Golden Thigh was just too clever, drawing inferences about other cases from one instance, and what Liu Meng said afterward made her feel a little relieved.

“Bro, what are you thinking? If animals can even become humans now, do humans still have a way to survive? I didn’t expect you to be so naive, hahaha.”

Yin Yiliu breathed a sigh of relief.
He was right.
Even the book didn’t have such a setting where animals could turn into humans.
Her sockpuppet would never be exposed!1

But she didn’t know that Jin Yang was secretly relieved as well, thinking that Little Rabbit’s situation was so special that not even the central government had noticed it.

It seemed that the little fella was safe for the time being without any danger of being caught and dissected.

The two of them, each with their own thoughts, packed up their things and set off on the road to the City Z with the rest of their teammates.

It was early in the morning when they left Flying Dragon Base.
When they arrived at the junction of City W, there was an increase in the plants in sight, and the surface of the road was uneven due to the ferocious roots of the mutated plants.

After the little rabbit put Jin Yang’s wheelchair back into her space, he carried the little fella on foot.

His legs had been consistently recovering these days.
The duration of his pain-blocking ability had increased from the previous one and a half hours to nearly three hours before he began to feel pain.

City Z was perilous.
They were already bringing a mutated wolf with them.
If he even sat in a wheelchair, they would certainly attract a lot of attention.

Yin Yiliu took out the meat they had obtained from Flying Dragon Base from her space.
Jin Yang hurled the two largest pieces at the little wolf.
He had seen how the wolf had protected the little fella yesterday, so his dissatisfaction with it had greatly diminished.

The little wolf was still thinking about how tender and delicious the grilled chicken from the farmyard had been, but it knew that Jin Yang’s willingness to share the meat with it meant that he had accepted the wolf into their team.
While wagging its tail with delight, it took up the meat with its mouth to a nearby tree and began eating.

There were many trees around them with lush branches.
Zhao Qiyang climbed up a tree like a monkey and broke off a few twigs to light a fire.

When he came back, he was swinging his hands while cursing, “I was almost stabbed to death!”

“What’s the matter with you?” Zhao Sihui asked.
She saw a red and swollen bump on her brother’s hand, which appeared to be very frightening.

“Just now, instead of a twig, I accidentally grabbed a handful of mutated caterpillars.
They were bigger than my palm, and their stings were poisonous!”

Zhao Sihui exhaled a sigh.
When would she be able to stop worrying about her brother?

Upon seeing this, Yin Yiliu took out the corresponding antiseptic, alcohol, and gauze from her space.
Jin Yang handed them to Zhao Sihui for her to remove all the poisonous stings from Zhao Qiyang’s hand.
Otherwise, it would become easily infected, inflamed, and eventually cause ulceration.

As for the task of grilling meat, Jin Yang consciously took over it, which made Yin Yiliu feel astonished, but also a little delighted.

The villain in the book secluded himself from society.
He was distant on the outside, cold on the inside, and polite to every passerby in his life.
However, there was always a sense of loneliness in him, like he could never fit in with everyone else.
This was what pained Yin Yiliu’s heart the most when she read the book.

Now that Jin Yang was gradually accepting his new teammates, did that mean that the loneliness in his heart was also changing for the better?
