Chapter 57 The Guardian of Humanity, Little Mimi God

Although another possibility for wolf pack organization makes one a little uneasy.

But this also proves that they won't cause any trouble for the time being.

Jiang He felt somewhat relieved.

As for the rest, he didn't really have any more questions.

After all, recent future events could provide valuable intelligence to help him prepare.

In the more distant future, its reference value will become very low.

Thugs, monsters, demons, apocalypse... With so many possibilities mixed together, who knows what kind of butterfly effect it will produce?
Jiang He wouldn't be surprised if he woke up one day to see the news that "Wolf King becomes Human Council Chairman and announces marriage to Ultra Beast on the spot; the witness is the ruler of the Demon Abyss; let's join hands to fight against the destroyer."

However, thinking about Baihe's inner turmoil, he couldn't resist asking a question.

"By the way, Lao Jiang, you're not married, are you?"

"Marriage?" Old Jiang's smile gradually faded.

Upon hearing those two words, his heart tightened, as if he had forgotten something.

In fact, he often had a similar feeling, always feeling that he had forgotten something important, but he couldn't remember it no matter how hard he tried.

This is a feature that has been "erased".

When Jiang He saw Lao Jiang trying so hard to remember, he instantly understood.

Wow, you have a story too?

That makes sense. In a hundred years, from the weakest to the strongest, it would be strange if there weren't any stories to tell.

With this in mind, Jiang He changed his question.

Do you still remember Du Lingwei?

“I remember, the former Zhongzhou Star.” Old Jiang couldn’t recall her, so he put it aside for the time being and said, “She was quite talented, a rare dual-talented individual, but unfortunately she didn’t have the opportunity to grow.”

"During the monster rampage in 2035, she died in battle against the Ultimate Monster while covering the evacuation of the citizens of Nakashu City."

Jiang spoke as if nothing had happened.

Clearly, Du Lingwei was not the one who made him reminisce.

Jiang He was not surprised.

Timeline, background, talent—everything about Lao Jiang and Bai He is completely different, so the probability that their wives are the same person is approximately zero.

If it really is all Du Lingwei... then it truly is destiny.

"Speaking of Du Lingwei, there's something quite interesting about her," Old Jiang said, a smile spreading across his face.

"Although she is dead, she left behind a treasure for humanity, a special guardian."

"The calico cat, the cat god."

"...Huh? Mimi Goddess?"

Jiang He was stunned for a moment.

Old Jiang was referring to the chubby calico cat in the fire station, which even had trouble licking its own fur.
"That's right, it's the one you rescued last night," Old Jiang said with a smile.

"It was raised by Du Lingwei herself and is a rare human-like beast. After Du Lingwei died, she entrusted the [Flame Spirit Guardian] talent to it."

"This represents Du Lingwei's will and endows it with the power of an extraordinary being, making it an extremely rare existence."

"With this power, it possessed strength comparable to that of an Ultra Beast, and has protected humanity for a long time."

"A century later, many survivors grew up under its protection and regarded it as their guardian deity."

That chubby little cat is actually that amazing?!

Jiang He was shocked.

anyway.

Jiang He couldn't help but ask, "It's a beast, yet it didn't side with the beasts but instead protected humans?"

Old Jiang smiled and said, "I asked that question too, and this is the answer—"

"I'm a cat, not a monster. I can help whomever I want, it's none of your business."

Jiang He suddenly realized.

The term "mythical beast" is a collective term used by human superhumans who stand at the top of the food chain to refer to other superhuman life forms on Earth.

In fact, there are racial differences among the mythical beasts; they are not all the same.

The correct term should be "extraordinary life," and human beings who are extraordinary belong to this category.

From this perspective, Xiaomi's affinity for humans becomes much easier to explain.

In its eyes, both beasts and humans were "other races." It simply chose the side it felt more favorably toward.

That being the case...

"If, like Xiaomi, many alien beasts stood on the side of humans, wouldn't it be much easier to solve the problem of the alien beasts going berserk?"

Hearing Jiang He's innocent words.

Old Jiang chuckled and shook his head: "Impossible, Xiaomi is an exception."

Before Jiang He could ask why, he said it directly.

"In the extraordinary era, the use of alien beasts has been integrated into all aspects of society."

"Blood refining techniques, spirit blood products, exotic beast ingredients..."

"Even the dragons and phoenixes that were revered by the ancients have been reduced to livestock in farms, or even more tragic beings."

"The cycle of cause and effect means that when the Ultra Beasts are born, they gain the power to fight against humans, and as a result, there will be no peace whatsoever."

"Only war and extinction."

"This is a blood feud."

Jiang He remained silent.

He visited the farm just two days ago.

Thinking of that scene, he realized that what he had just said was naive to the point of being foolish.

Humans regard exotic beasts as resources, so how could these beasts possibly be friendly to humans?

Animals like Xiaomi, born by chance and cared for tenderly by Du Lingwei, and who are close to humans, are ultimately anomalies.

Rampages and hostility are the norm.

"My profession is a savior, but I am only the savior of mankind," Lao Jiang said with a smile. "To other races, I can also be a destroyer, an executioner."

"Don't get any naive ideas."

"Little Mimi might be a friend, but the 'monsters' are enemies."

"……I see."

Jiang He nodded seriously.

……

After chatting with Lao Jiang for a while, Jiang He took another step towards "omniscience".

He drew fifty incantations at home to add to his "thousand words," then went out and bought a grass carp, added some catnip, and took it to the fire station.

He squatted by the corridor, watching the calico cat feast, stroking it as he spoke.

"Little Mimi, eat up..."

【Beast Rampage】not only represents the appearance of the ultimate beast, but also the birth and rapid growth of countless beasts.

According to Lao Jiang, they are simply the future darlings of heaven and earth, so strong that they are unreasonable.

Little Mi is only a little over a year old, and yesterday she was able to fight against the bat demon. Although she was at a disadvantage, it was still quite amazing.

Even among mythical beasts, this would be considered an unparalleled genius.

To this end, Jiang He spared no expense, using his last two hundred yuan in savings to purchase favor items.

Du Lingwei passed by and asked in surprise, "Jiang He, what's going on?"

"Shh." Jiang He said seriously, "I'm offering tribute to Little Mi Goddess. From now on, we'll be good siblings."

"Right, Little Mimi? Cat Fuyao, don't forget me!"

"Meow~~" The calico cat meowed sweetly after finishing its fish.

Seeing their expressions, Du Lingwei couldn't help but smile, a touch of envy welling up inside her.

When Xiao Mi was little, she was very attached to her. Now that she's older and has been free-range for a while, she's not as close to her anymore and always seems distant.

But ever since Jiang He arrived, Xiao Mi has been constantly clinging to him...

Du Lingwei was just about to ask if there was any secret.

At this moment, Zhang Zhiyong pushed open the door and came out, his eyes lighting up.

"Xiao Jiang, you're back just in time. Your previous A-level merit review has passed. Come and choose your reward..."

A reward? A Grade B extraordinary item?
Jiang He jumped up and exclaimed, "Coming!"
