CHAPTER 546: CHAPTER 448: FOREST WOLF INITIAL CULTIVATION (6000)_3

Xiao Siyuan took a look inside, and his face changed several times.

Is Old Li carrying the destiny of a child of fate?

Why does everything he needs just come to him?

...

On the other side, a prompt suddenly popped up before Li Zheng’s eyes:

[Mating Flower

Tier: None

Type: Special Item

Effect: Causes non-player creatures to enter mating season.

Description: The naturally emitted fragrance of the Mating Flower also has a short-term drug effect; repeated inhalation can cause resistance.

This information is sourced from "Prel’s Eye·Xiao Siyuan’s Eye Fragment".

Can be further cultivated, and will bear Mating Flower seeds upon maturity.]

Li Zheng burst out laughing after reading the prompt.

He never expected that the seemingly righteous Xiao Siyuan would have something like this in his hands.

Then, the system notified Li Zheng of a new targeted trade.

Opening the trade hall, sure enough, it was four "Mating Flowers" sent by Xiao Siyuan.

Seller’s note: Are you the Matrix Terminal’s favorite? Just got four of these things in the new room!

Li Zheng replied after receiving the goods: "Cover-up!"

How is this such a coincidence, that you happen to have what I need?

If you have it in your inventory, just say so. I wouldn’t laugh at you.

This time Xiao Siyuan was anxious: "Why would I keep such a thing in my inventory? It really was just a coincidence!"

Li Zheng turned and dove into the cold storage, picking and choosing Black Iron Level meats while casually replying to Xiao Siyuan with disdain: "Heh heh."

Xiao Siyuan, feeling embarrassed: "Honestly! If I’m lying, I’m a little dog!"

Li Zheng dug out a heap of ancient Black Iron Level meat from the bottom of his storage and replied with a phrase Xiao Siyuan had said not long ago: "I won’t let you talk about yourself like that."

"Crap!" Xiao Siyuan cursed loudly, truly feeling how fortunes change, and actions have consequences.

Li Zheng managed to find an opportunity to retaliate!

Banter was just banter, neither took it seriously.

Li Zheng tossed a Mating Flower and all the Black Iron Level meat into the feed machine. While waiting for the feed to be produced, he sent a private message to Xiao Siyuan: "If a pet comes out later, should I save one for you?"

"...Just save me a purebred Forest Wolf, please. I’m too broke for the household destroyers," Xiao Siyuan hesitated and replied to Li Zheng.

"No problem!"

Li Zheng casually made three more Cultivation Dishes and threw them in the corner of the Plantation to prevent the Mating Flower’s fragrance from affecting the animals in the Beast Cage.

As for the remaining three Mating Flowers, of course, he handed them over to the Ugly Farmer to take care of and try to get them to propagate.

"Ugh~"

While Li Zheng was researching animal husbandry, Mirel stayed by his side the whole time. She briefly inhaled the fragrance of the Mating Flower, let out a soft moan, then wrapped around Li Zheng like an octopus, her eyes becoming misty, rubbing her little face against him.

"Stop that!"

A flash of blue light passed through Li Zheng’s hand as he brushed Mirel’s forehead.

The cold stimulated Mirel, waking her up instantly. Her fair face turned crimson, and she jumped off Li Zheng’s body, bowing her head, and ran away.

The Mating Flower’s fragrance effect lasted five minutes; the cold was just a temporary suppression, not a complete removal. The little enchanting demon went off to find a quiet corner to wait for the effect to naturally dissipate.

Mirel’s situation delighted Li Zheng. If not even the Platinum Level King could be immune to the effect, surely the husky, being just a Black Iron Level creature, wouldn’t endure the Mating Flower feed!

This time, Li Zheng put quite a lot of materials into the compactor, producing a total of three large barrels of "Mating-type Feed".

Even though the information on the new feed explicitly stated that all the Mating Flower’s active ingredients were compressed into the feed and wouldn’t disperse through scent, Li Zheng still played it safe by trading in a few extra-large reinforced plastic bags in the trade hall and carefully packaging each portion.

By then, the Mediterranean Husky was already getting accustomed to the environment in the Beast Cage, panting with its tongue lolling out.

The first Beast Cage was only the default ten by ten in size, and squeezing in sixteen creatures the size of small calves, both wolves and dogs, made it crammed.

Li Zheng glanced to the side, where the second thirty by thirty Beast Cage was nearing completion. He called out all individuals except for the husky and the youngest female Forest Wolf, moving them into the new Beast Cage.

Li Zheng then calculated and built two more Beast Cages beside it, one ten by ten and another thirty by thirty.

By this point, the diamond-level materials the coalition "gifted" to Li Zheng were mostly used up, especially the special metal "Vibranium," now less than 100 grams, insufficient for crafting anything.

Li Zheng planned to keep the small Beast Cage as a "bridal chamber" for when he needed to nurture new life, isolating the target to prevent it from affecting other creatures.

The other, named "Beast Cage 3", he planned to catch some Banyan Bunnies to raise as future food for the Forest Wolves.

After finishing everything, Li Zheng grabbed a handful of spring grain and scattered it in the metal stone trough at the Beast Cage gate, mischievously beckoning to the inherently comedic-looking Mediterranean Husky: "Come on over, see if this new dog food suits your taste!"

The husky’s eyes were quite unique, extraordinarily beautiful, with a silver-blue base color paired with gemstone-like black pupils, making it dashingly handsome.

However, the Mediterranean’s eyes matched its ’hairstyle’ well, with pupils as small as mung beans, looking silly and exuding an air of goofiness, extremely comical.

If it were any other breed of dog, even if it was the owner, during the first feeding it would cautiously sniff before cautiously taking a few bites, checking for safety before starting to eat.
