Survival of the Nation: My luck was a tiny bit worse.

The lynx walked up to Ou Yun and stopped.

It's not much shorter than the European Union, and when it stands upright, it almost reaches the European Union's shoulder.

It raised its head, its large amber eyes scrutinizing Ou Yun up close.

Europe is also looking at it.

then.

It lowered its head and nuzzled Ou Yun's hand with its head.

"..."

Leng Ruolan paused for a moment.

That's fine.

Then he put the gun away.

Leng Ruolan asked, "What did it say to you?"

Ou Yun thought for a moment, "It says it needs a housekeeper and is asking if you'd be willing."

Leng Ruolan slapped Ou Yun on the back of the head. "Can't you be serious for once?!"

She could tell that the lions were wary of the lynxes.

Since the lynx is feared by those kinds of creatures, it must be one of the more formidable beings in this mountain.

The apex predator in this mountain is now rubbing against her older brother's hand just like a regular Hakimi?

Ou Yun laughed, "Oh dear, I don't understand cat language either, so how am I supposed to speak?"

Leng Ruolan sighed, "I guess it thinks you killed the lion and wants to recognize you as its older brother."

After saying that, he chuckled and said, "You have quite a good eye, huh?"

Ou Yun was delighted and casually patted the lynx's head.

The lynx didn't flinch; it squinted its eyes and grunted a few times.

"Holy crap, this feels amazing."

Ou Yun began to push his luck, picking up the lynx in one swift motion—he couldn't lift it by the waist, so he could only hold its upper body.

The lynx gave a speechless look—but still refrained from resisting.

"Meow..."

That hairless monkey is so rude! It touched me all over!

"Brother, it sounds like it's cursing at you."

"It's okay, I've already touched it, let it scold me."

"..."

Dragon Kingdom Livestream Room: ...

"Hey buddy, here to recruit more followers again?"

"Wow, this guy has such a way with animals! He must have been Snow White in his past life!"

"Hilarious! Captain Leng, your position as the eldest brother is in jeopardy, hahaha!"

*

Since Ou Yun is already here, let's take him back with us; he can keep Chen Hao company!

When Leng Ruolan saw that there was a large group of lynxes around, she thought to herself, "Good heavens, they've come to open a cat cafe in forbidden territory!"

"They may not necessarily be coming back with you."

She thought for a moment and then spoke up to remind them, "Their territory is over here, and ours is over there. This matter should... only be considered as establishing diplomatic relations."

"Then why did you say it came to acknowledge me as its elder brother?!"

"I guessed."

"..."

The two quickly returned to the location where they had hidden the off-road vehicle.

The giant lynx seemed to know where they were going and went back to say goodbye to the other lynxes.

The two waited in the car.

Leng Ruolan watched the giant lynx interact with the other lynxes through the rearview mirror.

The lynx king sat on the stone stool, meowing loudly.

Children, I have decided to go to the camp of the hairless monkeys to learn. If I learn the skills to defeat those mutated lions, I will come back and teach you!

The lynx below responded with meows.

Your Majesty, please return soon!

Your Majesty, we will definitely wait for you to come back!

If Your Majesty really can't come back, then let's choose a new king!

The two people in the car listened to the incessant meowing:

"No... something just feels off."

"Is it strange? Haven't we always been like this?"

"Oh, you're right."

Then, two lynxes came over.

One big and one small.

The big one is as big as a lion.

The smaller one is the normal size of a lynx.

The larger one is entirely white. The smaller one has grayish-white spots on its body.

The little one was clingy and didn't follow the big one into the carriage. Instead, it jumped directly onto the driver's seat and rubbed against Ou Yun and Leng Ruolan's legs, sticking to them and rubbing against them.

It only quieted down after the bigger one yelled at it.

"..."

Leng Ruolan started petting the lynx.

As she petted them, she suddenly said, "Let's give them names."

Ou Yun replied, "The big ones are called North and South, and the small ones are called Green Beans."

"..."

Forget it.

Leng Ruolan lifted the mung bean onto Ou Yun's lap. "Let's go home."

*

When the two men and two cats returned to the camp, Chen Hao was still lying in his watchtower, sipping pure water.

I glanced up and saw a pair of large headlights, exclaimed "Oh!" and rushed down.

"I'm back!"

"Look what we brought you!"

Ou Yun tossed the mung beans in front of Chen Hao like trophies—

The mung bean was very proud and immediately let out a meow.

"..."

Chen Hao pushed up his glasses.

"Brother, forgive my intrusion, but weren't you supposed to be patrolling the mountain?"

"yes."

"Then why did you bring back two cats?"

"Oh, and I also killed a few lions while I was at it."

Leng Ruolan was on the other side of the carriage, preparing to move the lions' corpses back.

Nanbei was very sensible; it lay down by the door, took a bite, and snatched one off in one go.

Leng Ruolan was so amused that she stroked its head several times.

When Chen Hao saw the lions thrown on the ground, his glasses immediately tilted to one side.

"This...this must be the mutated lion, right?"

"Yes, it's really tiring."

The two men briefly recounted the course of the battle.

Chen Hao stared at him, his eyes widening in disbelief.

A lion that can heal itself?!

"Yeah...you forgot? We encountered a lion that could heal itself when we were patrolling the mountains before. We couldn't beat it and just ran away."

During the post-match debriefing, Leng Ruolan's expression remained quite serious.

"I never expected such a large group to appear in this place."

In her view, this large-scale appearance might be a sign.

The creatures released into the forbidden area are no longer just ordinary wild animals—

It's entirely possible that a goblin could suddenly be released one day.

"So how did you guys win?"

Chen Hao was also taken aback. "Just with a knife?"

"Pretty much. But I couldn't cut it; it was Leng who did it. I just lent a hand from the side."

Ou Yun rummaged through the bag again and pulled out a piece of gold that was gleaming.

"Thank goodness for this!"

With a thud, Ou Yun slammed the Supreme Deluxe Royal Ultimate Grilled Steak Family Pack onto the table.

"..."

Chen Hao did see it.

But it seems I didn't see it—

He looked at Ou Yun, his eyes asking in unison: Which one?

Ou Yun laughed, "Huh? This is it!"

"?"

Chen Hao looked completely bewildered.

Damn it, they never take me with them when they raid, and I can barely understand the patch notes anymore!

Leng Ruolan calmly sipped her saliva beside her. "Oh, you didn't understand what Big Brother meant. Big Brother meant that he found this piece of meat in the golden supply box and used it as bait to give me the opportunity to cut off the lions' heads."

"...?"

Chen Hao was completely confused.

No, buddy.

Is this still Chinese?

I can't understand a single word of the arrangement!

In ancient times, there were valiant generals who could single-handedly defeat a thousand enemy troops.

Now there's a big brother, a meaty, mutated male lion?

"this……"

He wanted to ask another question.

But Leng Ruolan shook her head beside her.

Don't ask, I just don't know.
