Chapter 1065: Is It Your Companion?

When Xia Qing took out pearls, mirrors, magnifying glasses, and even promised it a protective suit, but still couldn't get them to deliver medicine to the blind tiger, Xia Qing finally understood what these two wolves were thinking: the tiger is a bad thing, no matter what Xia Qing offered, they just wouldn't deliver the medicine!

Xia Qing could only try a different angle, attempting to make these two leaders of the northern wolf pack's brain-domain evolution understand the importance of saving this tiger.

Herbs were one aspect; she had to make these two wolves understand the principle that when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.

There was a video that Xia Qing originally didn't want to show the two wolves so soon, because the content would give them too great a shock. But now, there was no choice but to play it.

The moment Xia Qing took out her phone with the cracked screen, it immediately caught the attention of the Broken-Waist Wolf, who was pretending not to like anything.

Seeing it staring at her phone, Xia Qing explained with heartache, "This phone's screen is cracked. Let me see if I can fix it. If I can't, I'll buy a new one."

The Broken-Waist Wolf stared at the phone, lost in thought.

"It's not yours, this is my phone. Your phone hasn't been bought back yet. Once I get it, I'll give it to you."

Mountain Fifty-Five has no ground signal base station; it can only connect to communication satellites to use mobile phone communication. To avoid enemies in the sky, the wolf pack, except when sunbathing, spends most of its time outside areas that can connect to satellites. So bringing a phone to Mountain Fifty-Five loses its networked communication function and isn't very useful.

Install a base station on Mountain Fifty-Five? Never thought of it.

Xia Qing pulled up the video Yang Jin sent her of the Azure Dragon Squad intercepting the beast tide, and played it on the TV.

Seeing the images appear on the TV, the two evolved wolves, who had been twisting their heads away and ignoring Xia Qing, immediately sat down by her side and watched intently.

"This battle took place in the Western Evolution Forest, the outer territory of the western wolf pack, right here, Mountain Area Forty-Six."

After taking out the map from the drawer and letting the two evolved wolves understand where the Azure Dragon Squad's interception of the beast tide took place, Xia Qing continued her introduction, "My lord, the day before yesterday we caught seven blue-skinned bad guys in this valley of the Western Evolution Forest, and one bad guy was hiding in the Evolution Forest and launched this beast tide."

After introducing the background, Xia Qing began playing the video. This video was recorded by the infrared camera on Yang Jin's protective mask. Because Yang Jin is a speed evolver, the video footage changes very quickly. However, the visual evolver Xia Qing, the speed evolver Head Wolf, and the elasticity evolver Broken-Waist Wolf, who were watching the video, could all capture the key information with their vision.

When she saw Yang Jin chasing the evolved wolf running at the very front, Xia Qing pressed pause. Head Wolf stared at Xia Qing with a solemn face, and the Broken-Waist Wolf slowly bared its fangs.

Xia Qing opened up the brain CT scan of this evolved wolf, placing a normal scan beside it for comparison. "This evolved wolf was controlled by humans. Broken-Waist, look at its brain scan."

The Broken-Waist Wolf stared at the scan for a few seconds before walking to the TV, raising its paw to point at the prefrontal lobe area on the scan, then turned its head to look at Xia Qing solemnly.

Xia Qing nodded, "Right, the color here in its brain is very dark. That's because the bad guys caught it, cut out this part of its brain, then put this kind of collar on it, and they can control it. Whatever humans tell it to do, it does..."

After explaining the situation of this evolved wolf, Xia Qing continued playing the video.

When they saw the evolved wolf in the video suddenly have its neck fur stand on end, start bleeding, and let out a miserable howl, both wolves roared at the same time, startling Old Goat, who had been lying nearby chewing cud, into jumping up.

"Bang!"

The old wolf on the house ruins, hearing the evolved wolf's miserable howl from the video, leaped directly from the ruins into Xia Qing's courtyard and slammed hard into the security door.

The two wolves inside the house also jumped to the door and let out majestic roars.

"Bang!"

"Clang—Thud!"

Xia Qing had just pressed pause and hadn't had time to rush over when her security door was knocked down by the old wolf!

The swallows under the eaves were so scared they chirped noisily, the two squirrels in the cage in the corner squeaked in panic, Little Feimao in the wooden nest on the wall immediately darted onto Xia Qing and burrowed into her pocket, Old Goat charged behind Head Wolf and Broken-Waist Wolf, and the two wolves and one goat roared at the old wolf.

Night wind carrying moisture poured into the house through the wide-open doorway, and the indoor lights quickly attracted a batch of small flying insects.

Xia Qing looked at the old wolf, whose neck fur was all standing on end as it roared in anger, and realized the seriousness of the situation. "Old Four, was that wolf that just howled your companion?"

"Aooooo aoooo aoo, ooo—"

The old wolf opened its mouth and let out a long string of angry roars, more than everything it had said in the month since coming to Territory Three put together. Xia Qing couldn't understand what it was saying, but she could feel its urgency and anger.

Head Wolf and Broken-Waist Wolf blocked the old wolf. Xia Qing held back Old Goat, who wanted to teach the old wolf a lesson, and asked again, "Old Four, was that wolf that just howled your companion?"

Seeing the old wolf about to tilt its head back and howl, Xia Qing's voice became stern and low, "I've said it before, howling is not allowed within Territory Three. Old Four, tell me, is that wolf your companion?"

Some of the still-damp fur on the old wolf's neck was still standing on end, but its emotions were calmer than before. It stared at the room behind Xia Qing and called out in a low, urgent voice.

Xia Qing's voice and mood were equally low, "Old Four, your companion isn't here. I'll show you the video, but you can't howl, or it will attract the attention of nearby humans. Can you do that?"

The old wolf, which had taken an attacking stance, slowly raised its head. Although it looked calmer than before, Xia Qing felt it was even more dangerous. This was a strength-evolved wolf; even though it was old and sick, two hits were enough to knock down the security door Xia Qing had cemented into the door frame.

Of course, it was also possible that because Old Goat kicked it every day, the security door had long since loosened.

After controlling the situation, Xia Qing quickly fetched tools, propped the security door back up into the door frame, first supporting it with a wooden stick, then blocking the gap between the security door and the wall with wooden boards to keep flying and crawling insects out of the house.

The flying insects of various sizes that had already flown into the house were celebrating wildly around the light bulb on the ceiling, leaving swaying black shadows on the walls. Xia Qing turned off the ceiling light and turned on the insect-killing lamp, then beckoned the old wolf outside, "Old Four, come in."

The old wolf, who had lived in Territory Three for over a month, stepped into Xia Qing's room for the first time on its own initiative.

Xia Qing stuffed a piece of compressed ration into Old Goat's mouth to keep it quiet, then began playing Yang Jin's video from the beginning. The two wolves of the northern wolf pack had no objections to this.

Seeing the speed-evolved wolf wearing a collar appear on the TV, the fur on the old wolf's neck stood on end again. It darted over, pressed its head close to the wall to look at the back of the TV, urgently calling out and searching for its companion.

It didn't know what a TV or video was. It only knew its companion was inside, and it wanted to call its companion out.

The Broken-Waist Wolf looked solemn, and Head Wolf roared, telling the old wolf to stay calm.

Xia Qing turned down the TV's volume. When the video reached the part where the collar on the speed-evolved wolf's neck exploded, tearing its flesh and making it wail, the old wolf anxiously sniffed the TV with its nose and let out a sorrowful low howl.

When Chang Li went over to check and rescue, and explained the wolf's injuries to Yang Jin, the old wolf heard Xia Qing's voice from the video.

Then, when Yang Jin ordered someone to cut open a very realistic rainproof cloth disguised as a stone wall and pulled out a blue-skinned human from inside, the old wolf couldn't help but let out an angry roar at this person and raised its paw to tear him apart.

Prepared in advance, Xia Qing firmly grasped the old wolf's front leg.
