Chapter 396: Your dog's life is worth more than an entire planet!

The human female went out; reportedly she had detected something special and needed to go.

This time she let Zhang Jie stay at home behaving, and did not bring this World-Shaking Demon King; helpless Zhang Jie could only stay at home obediently, waiting for the human female's return.

However, this wait lasted several hours.

In the huge shelter with a strong Feitu vibe, Zhang Jie stared blankly at the shelter's exit.

Time flowed second by second; Zhang Jie could not sit still, fiddling with the electronic device beside him, his mind beginning to wander uncontrollably.

"Ten hours since the human female left."

"I don't really miss her."

Taking advantage of her absence, Zhang Jie, this World-Shaking Demon King, set his sights on that pile of "trash" not far away.

The human female had taught him many bits of knowledge, perhaps just for fun, but Zhang Jie had already learned them all without saying a word.

Among them, something called a "Cocktail" left a particularly deep impression on Zhang Jie.

As a genius, he immediately understood the principle inside, and while the human female was away, he quickly made a dozen or so.

Just as he was about to test its power under his feet, Zhang Jie's brain suddenly realized it would blow him up too, so he could only boredly put down the Cocktail and lie on his small bed.

Time flowed quickly again; in a daze, Zhang Jie heard a wailing wind, and suddenly realized something, jolting awake.

Inside the shelter it remained empty; such silence clashed with the violent wind outside.

"The human female once said, this is called... a Radiation Storm?"

On the Feitu, besides natural disasters, there are Treasure Chests falling from the sky, and various extreme disasters.

A Radiation Storm is one such disaster, usually accompanied by high temperatures and strong radiation; if the shelter's strength and radiation resistance are inadequate, it could very well be blown to death directly.

Yet, even under such circumstances, the human female still had not returned.

A bad feeling rose in Zhang Jie's heart.

Radiation Storm is not a rare disaster; the human female once said that in practice, one could survive by making do with a Treasure Chest for a while, as long as one remembered to take medicine.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jie's heart calmed a bit.

"By the way, why do I call her the human female?"

Zhang Jie's brain short-circuited for a while; this way of addressing her is ingrained in instinct—he had known it from the start and had always called her that, never wondering why himself.

As everyone knows, in a person's life, early childhood memories cannot be recalled; everyone's memory begins at some moment in early childhood, like suddenly registering a successful account, from which point genuine records begin.

Zhang Jie is now like that; at six years old, he finally succeeded in canceling his life's account, and he seemed to suddenly understand many things.

For example, he should now address the human female as "Mom."

However, the most important thing now is not that, but what he should do if the human female does not return.

If he attempts to rescue her, where should he go to find her?

But the most crucial is how his tiny body can traverse the terrifying Feitu to seek the human female.

Oh wait, he is not really a human.

Perhaps he should be considered a special humanoid species, with a human appearance and human-like thinking, but different in essence from humans, he is not as frail as humans.

From the fact that he fears no radiation, he cannot be regarded as an ordinary human youngster.

The current Zhang Jie harbors a monster inside his tiny body!

At the 24th hour since the human female left, the Radiation Storm had ceased, and Zhang Jie finally decided to go out to find the human who provides his food and drink.

It is not because he is reluctant to leave her, but because without her he would starve to death on this Feitu, so he must go.

"Special species 'Extraterrestrial Entity'—hidden effect activated!"

"'Extraterrestrial Entity': You are not a natural disaster, nor are you this fragile carbon-based human race; as a composite super lifeform, your growth speed, vitality, and wisdom differ from ordinary people! (Your dog's life is worth more than an entire planet!)"

However, this text is surely invisible to the current Zhang Jie; he is now preparing to rescue his nominal mother.

Zhang Jie readied his equipment, packed his self-made Cocktails into a bag, and with a cold expression pushed open the shelter's door.

He is going to save the human female!

Afterwards.....

Afterwards he saw the human female return, her face covered in dust, dragging a large object.

Zhang Jie:......

Human female:?

"What are you up to?"

Zhang Jie only felt his whole body stiffen; an emotion called embarrassment spread throughout him, and the embarrassed him kept digging his toes into the ground.

At this moment, seeing Zhang Jie with big and small packages, and a few beer bottles sticking out behind him, the human female seemed to understand something and could not help laughing.

In her view, Zhang Jie's current appearance was like holding a toy sword preparing to fight to the death against a natural disaster—childish yet amusing.

But she knew Zhang Jie was likely preparing to go out and find her because she had been away too long, and she instantly felt relieved.

"Ah~ I get it."

"You're doing this because you're worried about me, preparing to go out and save me?"

"Not at all!"

Zhang Jie let out an "Ah!", dropped his equipment, and ran off angrily; behind him came the human female's teasing laughter, making him even angrier.

"Oh my, what's there to be shy about?"

"Come on! Let Mom see what good stuff you've prepared."

Saying that, she opened Zhang Jie's package and immediately saw those strange beer bottles.

"This is... a Cocktail?"

"So you've actually been listening to me talk about these all along."

"However, next time remember to listen properly; a Cocktail isn't just filling a bottle with water."

The beer bottle, due to its color, perfectly concealed the liquid's hue inside, leading the human female to mistakenly think it contained only ordinary liquid.

Actually, this thing can really explode.....

The human female threw it outward without a second thought, but in her peripheral vision she caught Zhang Jie's fearful expression and instantly felt something was wrong.

"This thing.... isn't really...."

Clang!!!

"!!!"

At the shelter's entrance, a violent explosion suddenly erupted, and a huge blast instantly knocked the human female flat on her back with her legs in the air.

"......"

"Zhang Jie!!!!"

(Do you guys feel this scene looks a lot like someone's skill?)

(The enemy lost balance!!!)
