Chapter 1257 The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (138)

The Amnesiac Black Panther and His Poor Little Beauty (138)

Delicious spring bamboo shoots are full of fresh flavor, bringing the first little joy of spring.

But the good fortune didn't last. Not long after, the second piece of bad news of the spring arrived.

More than one person has noticed that the animals have changed.

In the post-apocalyptic world, most animals are luckier than humans. The survival of the fittest allows most animals to avoid the zombies, while a few old, weak, sick, and disabled animals are bitten by zombies and turned into zombie animals.

But many wild animals are even better off than before the apocalypse. They have taken over more territory and begun to reproduce, and the sharp decline in the human population has freed up more living space for them.

Although there are zombies in addition to humans, these animals learned to be vigilant and alert through biological instincts much earlier than humans, and attacked and killed those zombies.

Domesticated animals were not so lucky. Most of them were carefully cared for and kept at home by humans before the apocalypse. Some animals even faced the apocalypse before they had completed their socialization, which made things even worse.

Most of the domesticated animals that survived the apocalypse were either very old or born after the apocalypse. Although they had also become more aggressive due to the apocalypse, they were insignificant compared to wild animals.

Unless it is an evolved animal, which not only becomes extremely intelligent but also undergoes a qualitative leap in physical function, Song Ning was carefully examined to see if the big cat was a mutated animal when he took the big cat to register.

Almost every one of these mutated animals in the vicinity is registered in the Hope Base's files, so when the first mutated animal shows abnormalities, the base knows immediately.

"What? You're saying Mimi has become smarter?"

Captain Man was the first to receive the information. One of her patrol members had a beloved pet that was seventeen years old. Although it was considered old age for a pet, it was clear that mutated animals had a longer lifespan than ordinary animals, and the pet was still lively and energetic.

The person who made the report was named Jasmine, and she herself was a little flustered.

"Yes, that's right."

She is indeed a member of the patrol team, but she got this spot largely because of her daughter Mimi.

Jasmine herself isn't very strong in combat, but she has a very protective pet named Mimi.

Although Mimi is seventeen years old, she is still much the same as when she was two or three years old. Her favorite things to do every day are sleeping, playing with flowers and plants (physical), and teasing cats and dogs.

It looks like it's still a baby.

However, this baby loves her mother very much. Whenever Jasmine encounters danger, Mimi will suddenly appear from an unknown corner and eliminate those dangers.

This is why Jasmine, despite not being a strong fighter, was able to secure a patrol team position.

After the cat owner was beaten, a new master came along, and this master was incredibly powerful. If she doesn't join the team, who will?

Because of this job, Jasmine not only has her own house with Mimi at the base, but she has also been living a very good life.

She has always been very good to Mimi, and every morning when she wakes up, the first thing she does is check on Mimi's condition.

Therefore, she was the first to discover the abnormality of the mutated animal.

"You mean, Mimi not only understands everything you say, but she's even started communicating with you?"

Captain Man's expression was serious, showing no intention of making fun of him.

Her attitude made Jasmine breathe a sigh of relief, and then she recounted the situation.

Mimi has become smarter.

Mimi was already very intelligent after the mutation. It was as if she had gained superhuman intelligence and could understand what people were saying. She would also respond according to her own preferences and mood.

But recently Mimi has become even more different.

“It’s not just that she’s become smarter. My feeling is that Mimi has become like us. It’s like she’s communicating with me as a person, not a pet.”

Jasmine said she was a little flustered, clearly this had a big impact on her. After all, it was a pet that she had lived with all her life, and suddenly it was like a person to her. This was not just a little scary for her, but more of a hard thing to accept.

After all, pets and people have completely different ways of getting along.

Similar situations didn't only happen to Jasmine; two other members of the patrol team also quickly reported new developments.

In addition, the base already has dozens of animals that do not have a single owner, but they have been well cared for by the base and have made many contributions to the base.

Around the day after Captain Man went to Jasmine's house to confirm, one of the Border Collies from this group of animals came to Ms. Liao's place as a representative.

Although Ms. Liao had heard about this matter before, this was the first time that a Border Collie had come to her door to "talk" on her behalf.

Because humans cannot communicate with animals, this matter eventually led to Song Ning.

"Does the base mean they want me and Leopard to be translators?"

When Song Ning heard this, his face was filled with shock.

What translation? Him?

He and Lance are going to be translators? And Lance is even going to use his big cat form?

The person who came to visit was Captain Fei. He looked like he had lost at least ten kilograms in the time it had been since I last saw him, and it wasn't hard to tell how he was doing lately.

However, Captain Fei's eyes still shone brightly, showing that no matter how many things happened or how great the setbacks were, he still had a firm belief.

Seeing Song Ning like this, Captain Fei had a misunderstanding.

He stood ramrod straight with his lips pursed, not even glancing into the room twice, his well-behaved demeanor resembling that of a veteran.

"That's right, Mr. Song. Perhaps you find this matter absurd, but..."

Before he could finish speaking, Song Ning quickly interrupted him, "Captain Fei, you misunderstood. I didn't doubt the base's intentions. I just don't understand why the base thinks that Brother Leopard and I are suitable to be translators."

If he and Lance had been exposed, the base should have come knocking on their door long ago, not waiting until now.

And what the heck is this translation?

The captain secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the captain's attitude was good.

He was actually quite confused when he accepted the task, since the task itself sounded absurd, and the things he asked Song Ning and the others to do were even more absurd.

But this was an order from above, so of course he wouldn't question it.

"I can't explain the specifics in a short time. If Mr. Song doesn't mind the trouble, you can come to the base with me and you'll understand."

Song Ning didn't dwell on it much. After discussing it with Lance, he followed Captain Fei into the base.
