Xu Xin squatted down and looked at the two little pangolins.
These two little pangolins are as big as kittens, but their scales have grown fully and their claws are very sharp. Their four watery eyes were wide open as they stared at Xu Xin who was squatting down.
When Coco saw these two little guys who were smaller than herself, she immediately walked forward curiously and gently stroked the little pangolin's head with her little paws, just like Xu Xin touched its head.
The little pangolin that was touched was not afraid, but struggled to crawl out of the grass nest and stared at Ke Ke. The other one lay in the nest, making soft cries.
What surprised him was that there were no blood marks on the bodies of these two little pangolins, just like two ordinary little pangolins.
Are the offspring of mutant beasts ordinary beasts
Just now, when he took a look, he saw a whole field of mutant pangolins covered with blood markings. Except for the giant one, there was no one without blood markings.
He suddenly understood why the pangolin wanted him to take its baby away.
These two little pangolins were perhaps abandoned by their tribe just because they were not mutant pangolins.
Perhaps it is because this pangolin population only accepts mutant pangolins, and if there are non-mutated pangolins born, they will be abandoned or killed.
Although this pangolin is definitely not as big as the giant pangolin just now, it is also very large. Including its long tail, its overall length is three meters. Generally, an adult pangolin is only a little over one meter long including its tail.
Just now, Xu Xin took a look at the pangolin group and didn't see any pangolins bigger than this one. Most of them were about one meter tall. It was obviously the strongest one besides the giant pangolin.
It seems that the broken scales on this giant pangolin were probably broken in the process of protecting its children.
It was squeezed out by the pangolin group.
That's why it risked being killed by Mimi Silver King and came to Xu Xin to lead the way, just to let him take its children away and let its children survive.
Xu Xin felt that his guess was correct, so he asked, "Do you want me to take your child away?"
It glanced at the two little pangolins in the grass nest and playing with Coco, nodded, and then looked vaguely at Xu Xin.
"If I don't take them, will they die?"
The giant pangolin nodded again.
"Okay, I agree." Xu Xin naturally agreed. It wouldn't be difficult to raise two little pangolins, but he added, "But you have to come with us."
In the short term, the two little pangolins won't bring him any benefits other than being cute pets.
But this giant pangolin is different. It looks very strong. Although it is not a mid-level mutant beast, since its claws have mutated, it must be the same as the Silver King Mimi before its evolution, and is about to be promoted to a mid-level mutant creature.
This state is the best choice for him, even better than the mid-level mutant beast, because his mutant beast contract can only contract low-level mutant beasts.
Now that Chang Yin's family is missing, he has no way to make contracts himself, so he naturally has to use the contracts in his hands sparingly. If he wants to get the greatest benefit, the natural choice is to sign a contract with a mutant beast like this pangolin.
The pangolin hesitated and did not respond immediately.
Xu Xin struck while the iron was hot, pointing at the Silver King Mimi who was no longer so vigilant and Ah Fu who was already hanging upside down above the cave, and said: "Look at them, they are all mutant creatures. I guess you are here because you are being ostracized, so you let me take your child away. Come with us."
"嘤!" Koko ran to the giant pangolin and patted its short and thick legs with her little paws.
Silver King and Mimi were no longer as aggressive as before.
Mimi had been locked up in a dungeon before, and most cats don't live in groups, so she didn't have any empathy. She just lay on the ground and stopped attacking.
But Silver King was once the king of the wolf pack, and he had also experienced betrayal and abandonment by the wolf pack after being seriously injured. He walked to the giant pangolin and patted its scales with his claws to comfort it.
Xu Xin picked up the two little pangolins and teased them. The two little guys were not afraid of people and even lay in his arms, with watery eyes, raising their heads to look at Xu Xin.
"Follow me, I can make you stronger. Look at these two. They were originally at the same level as you, or even worse than you." Xu Xin pointed at Silver King and Mimi. Silver King was just an ordinary beast at first, wasn't he not as good as this pangolin? "But now, each of them is stronger than you."
The Silver King let out a slight cry, indicating that it was indeed the case.
The giant pangolin was convinced. It walked to Xu Xin and lay down, indicating that it would go out with them.
Xu Xin smiled. Yes, with this pangolin, he might take the initiative to develop the underground area near the tree house!
By then, he will not only have a tree house in the sky, a yard on the ground protected by the heart of a plant, but also underground space to use!
He held two little pangolins in one hand, took out a mutant beast contract, and said to the pangolins: "I want to sign a contract with you now, so that we can become true partners."
After saying that, Xu Xin crushed the contract.
The contract was successful. Perhaps because he was holding the little pangolin and the two little guys were not at all opposed to it, the big pangolin did not resist at all and the fragments were integrated into its body.
Contract the mutated pangolin and gain 90 points.
This number of points made Xu Xin raise an eyebrow. When he first contracted Mimi, the score was 90 points. It was obvious that this giant pangolin was about to become a mid-level mutant beast just like Mimi.
On the map, a green spot lights up at the pangolin's location. Although the map will not show underground enemies, allies will be shown wherever they are.
He didn't expect that it would be so easy to contract a pangolin that was about to be promoted to the intermediate level. Moreover, this pangolin was probably the largest individual outlier in the population.
The two little guys moved in his arms, and they actually climbed up along the scales and rubbed Xu Xin's face. He seemed to be very liked by these two little guys.
Xu Xin suddenly thought of the ornamental fish that were attracted to him during the rainy season. When they saw him, they not only did not run away, but instead surrounded him and circled around him.
Could it be that he has a physical quality that attracts animals? When he first met Keke, Keke didn't resist at all after being picked up by him. You know, Keke is very alert to danger.
In any case, this pangolin became one of them.
This third cave also yielded a rich harvest.
"Okay, let's go out." Xu Xin held the two little pangolins in his arms. "Since you're going with us, you should take care of these two little guys. I'll provide you with a place to stay. Don't worry, it's very safe there."
Pangolin nodded, walked to Xu Xin, led the way for him, and prepared to take him out.
When passing by the cave again, Xu Xin looked inside again. This time he looked very carefully. Except for the huge guy, all the other pangolins were mutated pangolins with blood patterns on their bodies.
They all seemed to be sleeping, not even one of them was moving. But even so, Xu Xin did not dare to act rashly. If it were just these mutant pangolins, it would be fine. But that big guy was really scary.
How could an uncontaminated giant beast be mixed up with a group of mutated beasts
Wait... Among the entire pangolin group, only the giant pangolin has no blood streaks...
However, a mutant pangolin with blood stripes gave birth to a baby pangolin without blood stripes... Could it be that these two little guys are the descendants of the giant pangolin? !
Xu Xin looked at the giant pangolin leading the way, then turned his head to take one last look at the cave full of pangolins, and slowly opened his eyes.
The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed. In the entire cave, the pangolin he signed a contract with was the largest, and its status should be second only to that of the giant pangolin.
The big pangolin in front saw that Xu Xin did not catch up, and instead peeked at the group of pangolins, then hurriedly retreated and pulled him with its big claws, but did not dare to make a sound for fear of alarming the group inside.
Xu Xin followed it for a while before he couldn't help asking, "Who is the father of these two little guys?"
He knew that the giant pangolin was a female.
The giant pangolin paused in front, called out softly, and continued moving forward.
"嘤." Koko, who was lying on Xu Xin's shoulder and teasing the two little pangolins in his arms, cried out and opened her arms to make a big circle towards him.
Xu Xin took a deep breath and said, "It's really that big guy."
"Hmm." Coco nodded in agreement.
So, did he kidnap the giant pangolin's wife? Oh my god, it's not going to come out of the ground and ask for my wife!
Xu Xin turned his head again and looked at the two little pangolins in his arms, his eyes sparkling.
No wonder the scales on these two little pangolins have hardened even though they are so small. It turns out they are gifted!
They are his greatest gain in this cave!
This is the offspring of a mutant beast and a giant beast! It has the blood of a giant beast!
Will these two little guys become very big when they grow up
According to his deduction, giant beasts and mutant beasts are two different evolutionary paths. Now, he has both of them, as well as a red panda that can ignore the rules of the world for some unknown reason.
He felt like he was almost a beast tamer. That was because Mimi and Afu were unwilling to enter the bracelet. If they were both in the bracelet, he could release them when needed, and he would really be like a summoner.
As for the pangolin, Xu Xin had no intention of putting it in the bracelet. First, it had to raise two little ones. Second, pangolins had no teeth and ate insects. If he put it in the bracelet, he would have to feed it himself and catch insects for it, which was too troublesome.
It's better to let it roam free. With the plant heart, it's safe near his tree house and it can dig holes and build nests as it pleases.
A few minutes later, Xu Xin and his group came out of the original entrance, returned to the space under the cave, and then returned to the ground along the passage.
"Let's go back...wait a minute, let's go to the cave where the mutant plant's heart is first."
Soon, they arrived at the bottom of the second cave. The surrounding area was still covered with charred soil and the smell was also unpleasant.
The hole, about one meter in size, is still there.
"Do you know this hole?" Xu Xin pointed at the hole and asked the giant pangolin.
The giant pangolin made a thin, bird-like sound.
Coco gestured on the side, and Xu Xin understood what it meant.
This hole was indeed dug by a mutant pangolin. It must have been accidentally dug by a spy from their tribe who was digging holes everywhere.
Is this really the case
However, Xu Xin did not want to delve further into the matter. He still had to go back and distribute the fragments of the mutated plant hearts, so he took the beasts back to the tree house.
Xu Xin wanted to take the pangolin upstairs, but like Ah Fu, it didn't really want to go into the tree house.
At this moment, a prompt sound appeared in Xu Xin's mind.
The plant heart is fully grown and coexists with the tree house, protecting the land within a radius of 100 meters within the tree house.
A hundred meters in radius
That’s more than 30,000 square meters! This yard is so huge!
Xu Xin smiled and patted the giant pangolin on the back: "You don't have to go to the tree house. You can make your home anywhere within this 100-meter radius. Don't worry, it's very safe!"
Just then, his watch vibrated. He looked up and saw that it was a private message from Li Wenxi.
"Xu Xin, Ji Chaoyang is back! He also killed that big heart!"
