Minecraft: I'm Really Not a Monster

The next day, early morning.

The good news was that the fog that had lasted all day had disappeared.

The bad news…

Yang Bo stood on the second floor of the wooden building, watching the goose-feather snow falling from the sky. The little chick perched on his shoulder had shrunk into a ball.

The sharp, cold wind howled past, making a crying sound.

The gloomy sky was like it was filled with lead. Yang Bo reached out and caught a snowflake falling from the sky, looking at the crystal-clear snowflake, and couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.

It's just that behind this beautiful snowflake, there is something that makes people worry.

“This damn weather…”

Plop…

The sound of something falling into the water caught Yang Bo's attention.

On the surface of the lake, which had already formed a layer of ice, a dark black catfish jumped out of the water, splashing a huge spray.

“I almost forgot about you!”

This black catfish was not originally from the park's lake, but it swam over from somewhere during the previous heavy rain.

Of course, there were many fish with it. The other mutated fish were either eaten by Yang Bo and the others or stored in boxes.

Only it didn't attack Yang Bo, so it has survived to this day and lived a happy life.

Yang Bo jumped down from the second floor and came to the side of the wooden house, reaching out his hand to scoop up this mutated catfish that he regarded as a kitchen waste disposal unit.

The plump catfish seemed weightless in Yang Bo's hands, and he easily carried it on his shoulder.

“Don't move, I'll find you a good place.”

On the second floor underground, there was a pool he had specially made, and the two-meter-long catfish could be thrown into it completely. When he had time, he would expand it.

After settling the catfish, Yang Bo returned to the first floor underground. Xu Ling saw him come back, poured a cup of tea, handed it to him, and said with some worry:

“This heavy snow will have a great impact on the people in the gathering place.”

Yang Bo sat on the stool, picked up the teacup, took a sip, felt the fragrance of the tea filling his mouth, and sighed, “Who knew this damn weather would come so suddenly.”

“However, the humans in the gathering place are all evolutionaries, and their resistance to cold is much stronger than before, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem.”

Xu Ling also came to the table and sat down, propping her chin with her hand, looking blankly ahead, and said:

“I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling that this weather may last for a long time.”

Looking at Xu Ling's beautiful face, Yang Bo stopped drinking tea and said speechlessly, “Xiao Ling.”

“If someone else said it, it might just be a joke, but your words are definitely a law.”

Then he shook his head and continued, “Well, let's take care of ourselves first.”

This world is full of disasters, first mutated monsters, then abyss cracks.

Then there was heavy rain and heavy snow. Now Yang Bo felt that he wouldn't be surprised if a necromantic disaster appeared tomorrow.

Hearing Yang Bo's joke, Xu Ling came back to her senses and looked at Yang Bo, saying with some shame and anger, “You're making me sound like a jinx.”

“Haha, your ability to seek good fortune and avoid bad luck, isn't it a jinx?”

Yang Bo looked at Xu Ling and continued to tease her.

Xu Ling snorted coldly and hugged the brewed honey water and drank it.

Smelling the honey water, the smile on Yang Bo's face disappeared, and then he sighed, “Alas, it's only been half a month, and the bees have already hibernated. I don't know how long this damn weather will last.”

When the temperature drops, the first to be affected are these bees who work hard every day. They are relatively small and extremely sensitive to temperature changes.

『We don't want to either. We only stored a little honey for the winter, and the temperature suddenly dropped.』

The one speaking was the queen bee, who was wandering around on the first floor. Since the temperature dropped, it had been completely idle. Not having to lay eggs, it didn't go into hibernation, but ran to Yang Bo's place to wander around.

And it also specially begged Yang Bo to build a new beehive for them underground.

“The development of your bees is all metamorphosis. Actually, you can try to adjust it and see if you can breed some cold-resistant bees.”

『This…』

The queen bee was stunned. It wasn't that it couldn't do it, but it seemed that it should be able to do it. Since it mutated, it has been able to control some easily changeable genes in its offspring.

For example, size and aggressiveness.

The reason why bees are only the size of a fist is because the flowers are too small, even if there are some mutated plants, the flowers are not much bigger.

And now Yang Bo's words were like opening a door to a new world for it, twisting its body and crawling towards the beehive.

『I'll go back and try…』

Xu Ling looked at the queen bee's leaving back and asked with some confusion, “What did it say to you? Why did it suddenly leave?”

“Maybe it went home to prepare a surprise!”

After speaking, Yang Bo put down the water cup and stared at Xu Ling with burning eyes.

Xu Ling's body trembled, and she immediately remembered the dark green kettle, and stood up resignedly, preparing to go to work with Yang Bo.

Just then, Yang Bo's walkie-talkie suddenly rang, but the signal underground was not very good, even though this walkie-talkie was of military quality.

“Yang… hiss… brother, do you… hiss have… time…?”

Wang Hongbin's voice rang from the walkie-talkie, accompanied by the sound of static electricity. Yang Bo was a little puzzled.

‘What is he looking for me for at this time?’

Thinking about it, besides this damn weather, nothing special has happened during this time. Yang Bo said to Xu Ling with doubt:

“I'll go upstairs and ask if there's anything going on. You go down and see how those essences are doing first.”

Xu Ling nodded and walked towards the second floor underground.

Yang Bo then came to the ground.

He pressed the walkie-talkie and asked, “Brother Wang, what's wrong?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Hongbin's voice immediately rang from the phone and said, “Brother, because of the weather, many carnivorous mutated animals are approaching the city. If it's convenient for you, can you help guard the park area?”

There's such a good thing??

Yang Bo's eyes lit up when he heard this. Since the mutated army was destroyed, he had rarely encountered groups of mutated creatures. Even if there were any, it was only three or five.

“How many are there?”

“The number cannot be determined temporarily, but news from other gathering places says that the number is not large, but the individual strength is very strong.”

Yang Bo readily agreed to Wang Hongbin's request, saying very cheerfully, “Okay, I can help guard the park area, but you also have to be prepared.”

If there are too many, he can't stop them alone.

“That's natural.”

The two discussed the details and then stopped talking.

Yang Bo looked at the white wilderness and said with a smile, “I'm just short of activated crystal shards. This is really a monster siege, a pillow when you're dozing off.”
