Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 152 The Rooster Cometh
Chen Luo only needed to check in every two days.
There was no rush; moving there on the very day the zombies evolved to Level Four wouldn't be too late.
In about half a month, the zombies would evolve to Level Four.
It had also been a month since the crystal shattered, and he could now barely absorb crystals. (Three months changed to one month; it doesn't really affect much.)
He could also use his abilities again, including Void Walk.
After absorbing more than sixty Level Three crystals, Chen Luo sighed.
Level Three crystals only had a little effect on him now. It would be difficult to reach Level Seven relying on them; he didn't know how long it would take.
Level Four and Five crystals were good for others, but they really weren't of much help to him.
Chen Luo muttered to himself, "Time Acceleration."
After using Time Acceleration, Chen Luo wanted to try it again, but he didn't dare; the consumption was too great. Each use shattered a crystal.
He wanted to improve it, to reduce the consumption, but he couldn't find a starting point. He'd have to wait until Level Seven to try.
Chen Luo was about to continue practicing Void Walking with the cat when King Dharma barked outside the door.
"Woof woof."
Chen Luo wondered what was going on.
King Dharma wouldn't bother him at night for no reason. It wasn't like he wanted a hug, was it?
King Dharma licked his face, looking ingratiating, and barked at Mifan a few more times.
Mifan translated, "He's asking you for meat again. Give him ten *jin* (approximately 11 pounds)."
What King Dharma wanted was raw meat, but King Dharma didn't eat raw meat.
Needless to say, Chen Luo understood; it was to feed the silver wolf.
Now, the silver wolf was King Dharma's lover, having succumbed to King Dharma's mighty power.
Chen Luo said, "Didn't I just give it some tonight? I gave it ten *jin* (approximately 11 pounds). Is it hungry again?"
Thinking of something, Chen Luo suddenly understood, "Oh, I get it. It's full, but it's asking for more? Could it be for that gray wolf?"
"Are you helping someone support a mistress?"
The silver wolf was King Dharma's wife, so Chen Luo was willing to provide for it. He'd let it eat as much as it wanted.
But that gray wolf... Ha! It was good that Chen Luo didn't eat its meat. Outdated beef, take it or leave it.
King Dharma didn't care. He looked embarrassed, his dog face full of apologies, gestured to Chen Luo a few times, and took the lead.
Following King Dharma, Chen Luo arrived at the silver wolf's residence. Chen Luo had built it a large doghouse.
More than ten square meters!
At that time, Chen Luo gave an order, and hundreds of soldiers built it a doghouse.
When the silver wolf saw Chen Luo, its body, which had been lying down, immediately stood up alertly. It had accepted King Dharma, but not Chen Luo.
King Dharma immediately stepped forward to reprimand it, telling it to be respectful to his master.
Then, King Dharma shyly touched the silver wolf's belly with its paw.
Chen Luo was stunned.
He saw that the silver wolf's belly was slightly bulging, unnoticeable without careful observation.
Was it pregnant?
Damn, it hadn't been long at all, and it was already pregnant?
King Dharma, you're something else.
King Dharma looked at Chen Luo with its tongue out, *I'm not a sucker. My wife's pregnant. Shouldn't she eat more?*
Give it meat.
Chen Luo was convinced and obediently gave it meat.
Hmm, was King Dharma about to have puppies?
He wondered if the offspring of King Dharma and the silver wolf would be powerful. In his previous life, King Dharma had really been a single dog.
Back in his room, Chen Luo took out his study materials and flipped through the animal section.
Wolves could give birth in about two months.
That meant the puppies would be born in about a month and a half.
Dogs were different from humans; they could run when they were a month old.
A picture couldn't help but appear in Chen Luo's mind.
A group of wolfhounds surrounded him, all with outstanding aptitude, not as strong as King Dharma, but not bad either. At his command, the dog commando rushed forward and tore the enemy to shreds.
There would be at least a hundred or eighty of them.
Chen Luo laughed heartily in the back, lying down to relax.
Mifan had probably been watching too many TV dramas recently. Seeing that King Dharma wasn't around, she quietly said.
"Do you think it's possible that the puppies are the gray wolf's, and King Dharma is the one taking the blame?"
Chen Luo was not okay, looking strangely at Mifan. You weren't like this before.
Don't talk nonsense. She's a virgin wolf. Wolves are loyal creatures and only have one mate in their lifetime.
If King Dharma heard you, he'd bite you.
…
The next day, there was another piece of good news.
In the morning, Leng Chen, who was on duty, reported, "Brother, someone wants to visit you, and they brought gifts. I saw it; they're carrying a rooster."
Chen Luo was surprised. A rooster?
"Invite them in."
With a rooster, Little Red's eggs could hatch into chicks, one becomes two, two becomes four.
Before long, a somewhat fat, bald man led several of his men into the base.
The fat man's face was full of smiles, his posture a bit low, bending over, and reaching out both hands to shake Chen Luo's hand.
Chen Luo looked at the rooster in the hands of the thug behind him and gave him face by reaching out his hand.
The fat man smiled and said, "Chen Luo, Boss, hello. My name is Lei Hao. It's a great honor to meet you."
"Although we're not in the same district, I've heard of your name, Boss Chen Luo, for a long time. I've wanted to meet you for a long time. Today, I finally have the opportunity."
Not only in Chen Luo's district, but in other nearby districts, people had heard of Chen Luo, an "out of line" leader with extraordinary strength.
Lei Hao gestured for his men to put down the gifts they were carrying.
Boxed gifts, with what looked like sausages and fruits; he wondered if they were spoiled.
The most eye-catching thing was a large, very energetic rooster.
Chickens and ducks, as long as they weren't dead, their physical fitness would be strengthened. If they were taken care of, how could they not be energetic?
Not every chicken was as miserable as Little Red.
Lei Hao smiled and said, "Small gifts, nothing to show respect."
The only thing Chen Luo liked was the rooster. He said hypocritically, "Hey, you came, that's enough. Why bring gifts? You're being too polite."
After a round of hypocritical greetings, Lei Hao revealed his intention.
He wasn't there to give money away; he wouldn't bring such a big gift for no reason.
Lei Hao gave a thumbs up and complimented, "I know your strength, Brother Chen Luo. You're the one. No one in the entire district dares to compete with you. You can be said to be a local tyrant."
"I'm here this time to cooperate with you, Brother."
Chen Luo asked, "What is it?"
It wasn't like he had to agree to anything just because he brought gifts.
Lei Hao said, "I have a grain and oil wholesale market, and many warehouses are there. There are so many supplies."
"In addition, there are many seed shops. I have a younger brother who worked there before the apocalypse. He knows about how many supplies are there."
"At least a thousand tons of supplies."
Lei Hao said meaningfully, "Brother Chen, you're not interested, are you?"
"But there are a lot of supplies there, and even more zombies. You have to cross two streets, and it's not a small danger."
"Brother Chen, you are exceptionally strong, so I want to cooperate with you. What do you think?"
Chen Luo thought for a moment and agreed. Who would嫌弃xiánqì (dislike; complain of) having too many supplies?
