Chapter 172: Cattle Kneel on the Ground, Exploration of the Grazing Area Maxed Out

Seeing the terrifying hoof so close at hand, the little black calf was instantly too frightened to make a move. It closed its eyes slightly and made a soft moo, as if it had submitted.

Upon hearing the black calf's submissive cry, the golden calf moved its front hooves away, turned around, ran to Zeng Shen, rubbed against him affectionately, and then turned to the calves around it, letting out a loud "moo" to the sky.

Followed by.

It turned around to face Zeng Shen, its forelegs slightly bent as it knelt on the ground, its head slightly lowered on the grass.

all of a sudden.

The surrounding calves also joined in with mooing, bending their front legs and kneeling on the grass, their heads slightly touching the ground, as if people were performing a grand ritual of worship.

The little black ox did the same thing after it got up from the ground.

Soon, as the little black calf bent its hooves and knelt down, the herd of calves that had been following it also turned around, looked at Zeng Shen, and knelt down with their forelegs bent.

As they knelt down, the calves in the far distance also slowly knelt down one after another.

now.

If someone looked down, they would see a spectacular sight.

On the entire pasture, all the calves, as if enlightened, knelt down with their forelegs around Zeng Shen, as if in awe of the appearance of their deity.

When the calves at the farthest point also knelt down, some of the calves in the entire pasture began to emit tiny white rays, which surged toward Zeng Shen's body.

[Congratulations, host! Under the leadership of your pet golden bull, 666 exotic beasts and 520 minotaur tribesmen have decided to follow in your footsteps and worship you as their sole deity.]

[Congratulations, host! You have gained 1186 followers, 11860 survival points, and 11860 faith points.]

Hearing the notification sound in his ear, Zeng Shen nodded with great satisfaction, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He stepped forward, opened the Gate to the Divine Realm, and positioned it on a fertile grassland in the northern part of the Divine Realm. Then he said to the little golden bull:

"Little Golden Bull, get up and tell them that all those whose bodies were glowing just now should go into this white circle."

"Moo."

Upon receiving Zeng Shen's command, the little golden ox slowly stood up and then let out a loud moo towards the entire herd of calves on the pasture.

Upon hearing the moo, the calves stood up, and those whose bodies had emitted white light began to rush into the divine gate that Zeng Shen had opened.

The first to go in was the white calf, then the black calf, and then all the other calves rushed in.

These calves, which will become the intelligent Minotaur race in the future, will enter the realm of the gods.

Zeng Shen then began to throw his spying eyes at the calves in front of him, one by one.

Whenever he saw a calf that had successfully become his pet, he would pat its rump, signaling it to enter the divine realm as well.

While Zeng Shen was busy finding the calf that would become a monster in the future, Asha slowly entered stealth mode and then ran at an extremely fast speed towards the ranch house in the distance.

Zeng Shen saw her and shouted at her from afar, only looking at her back.

"Just let them fall asleep."

More than an hour later.

Of the more than 3,000 calves on this pasture, only more than 2,000 remain.

Zeng Shen walked to the edge of the pasture, quickly pulled up the animal pens that were over a meter high, and then had Little Golden Bull give the order to the two thousand calves to leave.

"Moo."

Upon receiving the command, the little golden ox quickly raised its head and let out a bellow. In an instant, the calves here slowly passed through the pen, then ran off in groups in all directions, like wildfire spreading in all directions.

After the calves left, Zeng Shen looked at the last calf beside him, Little Golden Ox, and said softly, "Little Golden Ox, you should go and rest in the Divine Realm too."

"Moo."

The little golden bull let out a reluctant moo, but it was still obedient, walking towards the gate of the divine realm with every step it took and every turn it turned back.

"Go, take good care of them for your master. A year from now, your master will lead you to conquer the heavens."

Zeng Shen said softly.

After the little golden bull entered the gate of the divine realm, Asha looked at the calves outside the animal pen, which were divided into more than ten groups and scattered in all directions, and wondered:
“Master, don’t you need meat resources? How can you bear to let these calves go? Why not just kill them and store them?”

"Because their fate may be changed by their owner's act of letting them go. And when they meet their owner again in the future, they may bring their owner unexpected surprises."

As Zeng Shen spoke, he grabbed Asha's soft, white waist, cast a flying spell, and flew her towards the ranch and herdsman's house she had just visited.

We plan to explore the grazing area, the last part, to maximize its exploration progress before heading to the final production area for another large-scale free purchase.

Soon, Zeng Shen appeared above the ranch hut with Yasha in his arms.

He looked down slightly.

There are more than twenty or thirty pastoral houses here, each with two bedrooms and a living room.

now.

The cluster of shepherd's houses was quiet and still, bathed in the glow of the setting sun.

Zeng Shen landed at one of the shepherd's huts, opened the door, and went inside.

This herding family consists of four members.

One couple was sleeping peacefully in the master bedroom, while two eighteen-year-old twin sisters, dressed lightly and with delicate features, were sleeping soundly in their side-lying room, embracing each other.

"How many hours do you hypnotize them to sleep?"

Zeng Shen came out of the side bedroom, asking Asha a question while opening the refrigerator to find some drinks.

“Master, my Soul-Soothing Sleeping Sound can only hypnotize ordinary people for 12 hours,” Aysa said.

"12 hours? That's an insane skill," Zeng Shen said enviously, then took out a bottle of cola from the refrigerator and handed it to her, before taking out another bottle for himself.

The two then left the house and went to the next room.

One second before it got completely dark.

Zeng Shen quickly walked through all the surrounding shepherd's huts before looking at the secret realm mission panel in the upper left corner.

[Secret Realm Main Quest 2: Exploration of the Great Ranch reaches 100% (Living Area 20%, Cattle Pen Area 20%, Industrial Area 30%, Grazing Area 30%). Current exploration progress: 70% (Living Area 20%, Cattle Pen Area 20%, Grazing Area 30%, Industrial Area 0%). Reward: Item Card, Great Ranch Secret Realm Fragment 2.]

After confirming that the grazing area had been explored to its maximum extent, Zeng Shen reached out and hugged Aysa, whispering, "Baby, we should go to the last industrial area now. I suppose the workers in the industrial area have all gone home for the living quarters by now."

Done.

Zeng Shen's consciousness sharpened slightly, and he stealthily sped towards the industrial zone.

As he flew out of the grazing area and was about to head towards the industrial zone a kilometer away, a warning sound rang in his ears.

[Congratulations, host! You have swiftly cleared the terrifying pastureland and gained the faith of all the intelligent races in the area—the Minotaur—as well as the allegiance of the ancient bull beasts, the fire bull, and the demon-patterned giant bull. Survival points +3000.]
