Chapter 342 "Is the boss a vet?"
"You're supposed to be dead, right? People in your district even held a funeral for you, and they even made you a clothed tomb."
Russel lost the ability to use chopsticks and could only hook up food with his claws into his mouth.
"Weren't you blind? How do you know so much?"
Ming held his chopsticks, neatly picking up the food, and glanced at the Batman hanging upside down above.
Now Russel has been 70% batified. If you don't look at his face, it's really hard to recognize him as a human. It's unknown how he managed to mutate so thoroughly.
"I wasn't completely blind when you died, I could still see a bit. But not now, everything is blurry. But, I have a strong ability to receive sound waves, let me tell you..."
Russel swallowed a piece of beef and spoke somewhat unclearly, "Every time the sound wave comes back, I can form an image in my mind. The objects in the picture all have an approximate outline. If I'm not mistaken, you've gained weight recently."
"~"
Ming looked at himself, and it seemed that he had indeed gained some weight. It's inevitable with good living conditions.
"Why did everyone in your district think you were dead? What happened to you then?"
"I was trapped in a personal instance. The setting was that I couldn't send messages, so they thought I was dead."
"Ah, I see. Your district's people must have been unnecessarily sad, but knowing that you're alive would make them even happier. By the way, that one next to you just now, the one with wings on its back, at least six meters tall, is that your new puppet? I remember last time you came, you only had two toads."
"Yes, last time you guys suggested that I should get something bigger for self-defense, so I changed it~"
"Ah, you make it sound so easy. But, judging from the sound waves I received just now, its speed and strength are very strong, and it also has a pair of horns. It seems that its fur is quite lush, it's a yak with wings, isn't it?"
"~"
Ming looked at Raoul, who was sitting outside the cave, squatting on the ground, carefully picking flowers, and nodded, "Yes, you're right."
After the two of them finished reminiscing, Ming put away the frogs that had yielded nothing and bid farewell to Russel. "Be careful to stay alive, don't die, or you'll really become a dead blind man."
"Don't worry, your resurrection from death allowed me to escape from death, both of us are quite lucky."
Russel, hanging upside down from the top of the cave, his eyes moist, "After you become this strong, don't go around being a hero, the world doesn't lack a hero like you. We are all ordinary people, just being able to eat and dress warmly is enough."
"Alright, cheers!"
Ming, holding the coconut, disappeared as the beam of light touched the ground.
Russel took a sip of coconut juice, "Stay alive, cheers."
...
Grassland.
After several random jumps, Ming finally arrived at his own mining area.
When he saw the bruised Clos and the muddy Kyomoto Jiro with scratches all over his body, he was stunned, looking incredulously at the human and the beast-man, and blinking, he asked, "You two... had a bit too much fun?"
"Hmph! Boss, your puppet is very impolite. As soon as the sun rose, it started attacking me. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been killed by it."
Clos was very tough and didn't act pitifully.
[Kyomoto Jiro is looking at you. At night... listen to her... you said...]
[Kyomoto Jiro is looking at Clos again. During the day... I hit her... Is that not okay?]
[...]
He did say that Kyomoto Jiro should listen to Clos at night but during the day... Yeah, he forgot to explain that.
"Boss, look at my swollen face, and this purple leg of mine, and look at this..."
Clos lifted her skirt, pointing at a bruise on her white thigh, then dropped her skirt and unbuttoned her jacket inside, ready to continue narrating how miserable she was.
Ming raised his hand to stop her, "First off, this doesn't count as a work-related injury, so showing me all this is useless. I won't pay you."
"~"
Clos glared at him, and put her hands on her head, you devil, you don't even give me a chance to speak.
"Also, you and Kyomoto Jiro were playing around during work hours, so I'm deducting an hour's pay. Any objections?"
"Boss, can't you see that I'm all injured?"
"I see, now look at him."
Ming pointed at Kyomoto Jiro.
Thump~
With a loud noise, Kyomoto Jiro slumped down, mouth askew, eyes rolled up, tongue hanging out, foaming at the mouth, body trembling.
"!!!"
Clos was shocked. Okay, you're a real actor, you're shameless.
Ming frowned, I don't think I asked you to act, what's the matter?
[Your Merlin swoops past Kyomoto Jiro, telling him that you weren't home yesterday, so she'll make up for the daily dose today. Once he's better, she'll come to give him a second dose~]
[Merlin looked at Clos, her face is so ugly with all the purple and green bruises... Could it be that Ming has taken a liking to you? Merlin hopped away into the distance, ready to go find some more good stuff~]
"..."
It has to be said that Merlin is really thoughtful and never misses any family member who needs to boost their poison resistance.
He looked at the agonizing Kyomoto Jiro on the ground, and then faced Clos, "Now it's okay, he might die, and you should know that he is my private property. You hit quite hard."
"But... I... I don't have any money~"
Clos looked at Kyomoto Jiro, feeling that the other party was not pretending, he was miserable. But, when did she become so strong? She was completely unaware.
"Heh~"
Ming smiled, "So, are you ready to work till you drop?"
Moments later, Clos was carrying boxes of ore and working hard, while Kyomoto Jiro still lay on the ground, unconscious.
Ming was not worried. At this moment, he was standing in a water hole inside the mine, holding a large syringe towards a crocodile, whispering, "Don't be afraid, it will be over soon~"
Splish-splash~ The crocodile turned over and went into the water, disappearing from sight.
"It's you who forced me to do this."
Ming activated his underwater breathing skill and plunged the syringe into the water.
"~~"
Sam, hanging above the mine pit, looked at the churning water as if it were boiling, he nudged Schneider, "Hey, what's the boss doing?"
Schneider shrugged slightly, "Just another boy who likes to play in water?"
At this moment, Ming sprang out of the water, flew up to the ground flapping his wings, and quickly ran to the just awakened Kyomoto Jiro, who was stunned by the syringe in his hand.
[Puppet Kyomoto Jiro looks at you...a shot?]
[Puppet Kyomoto Jiro tries to dodge...]
[...]
"Don't move, it won't hurt a bit."
Ming lifted his hand and plunged the needle into Kyomoto Jiro's right shoulder, pushing the crocodile gene blood from the syringe...
[Puppet Kyomoto Jiro feels...pain...]
[Puppet Kyomoto Jiro sees you pull out the needle and stick it into its left shoulder...]
[...]
Ming withdrew a syringe full of Kyomoto Jiro's blood, quickly jumped down the mine pit, and walked towards the crocodile that was obediently lying in the shallow water, sticking the needle and injecting the blood, "You won't die, what are you afraid of?"
"~"
Sam frowned, saying to Schneider beside him, "Is the boss a vet?"
Schneider nodded, "So far, it seems like it~"
