The Highly Intelligent Little Fox

"Oh, right, there's one more thing." Chen Luo suddenly remembered something.

Chen Luo opened his talent panel, glanced at the "100% Foxes Returning Favors" talent, hesitated for a moment, and then picked up the fox in his arms.

"Yes, female."

Distinguishing male and female foxes is quite simple, especially since Chen Luo used to raise foxes, so he has some experience in this area.

However, it seems that both of the foxes Chen Luo is raising are female.

"Thinking back on it now, it's actually a good thing the fox was dizzy." After confirming the fox's gender, Chen Luo picked it up again and headed home.

The reason I say this is because when Chen Luo was looking at the White Fox couple before, the White Fox almost bit his arm.

However, to be fair, raising foxes is indeed a very interesting thing; when a fox starts to act cute, it's hard for most people to resist.

It was around that time that Chen Luo deeply sympathized with why King Zhou in the Investiture of the Gods was able to ruin himself.

Who can withstand this?

"However, talent panel, did you forget something about the mission?" After summoning the talent panel, Chen Luo tapped it again to remind him.

Chen Luo had been waiting for a while, but no mission came, so he figured there might be something wrong with his talent panel and he needed to fix it manually.

There is no mission.

"Why isn't there a mission? Didn't the Herrscher of Knowledge have a mission back then? It was even a timed mission," Chen Luo said.

Speaking of which, the Herrscher of Knowledge's mission back then directly rewarded 600 Primogem, which Chen Luo considers to be an extremely high price now.

And most importantly, it's not difficult to complete at all; you just need to get home within 20 minutes.

Chen Luo can complete as many of these tasks as he has.

There is no mission.

"Seriously? Why does the Herrscher of Knowledge get a mission while the little fox doesn't? Are you looking down on the little fox? I condemn you on behalf of animal protection organizations!" Chen Luo said indignantly.

[A commission arises only when the commissioner has a strong desire or longing. The Herrscher of Knowledge, after being deceived by her own mother, developed a desire for a family, thus creating a commission. But this fox did not.]

"Uh, okay." Seeing that the talent panel was unusually willing to say so much, Chen Luo had no choice but to believe it.

After all, what else can you do if you don't believe it? What the other party said does make sense.

Based on Chen Luo's experience in accepting commissions over the past two weeks, commissions only appear when the other party has certain demands, not when Chen Luo wants them to appear.

Besides, it's just a little fox. How much will you expect it to have to survive? And it's already unconscious.

On the other hand, even if the other party has the will to survive, given that this little fox can be crushed with one hand, it's probably only worth about ten Primogem. It's better to steal two, cough cough, or rather, kill two Militants.

The first thing Chen Luo did after bringing the little fox home was to give it a bath.

Although it's not good for the injured person to get wet, they were covered in mud, and not washing them off would delay the rescue.

Since the other party is a fox, there's no need to consider the difference between men and women as you would with the Herrscher of Knowledge, but you still need to take care of the wound.

The fox's wounds were mostly shallow, not deep, and looked more like scratches from running around in the forest than from being caught in the Space-Time Turbulence.

Chen Luo first used a wet towel to clean the dirt and grime around the wound, and then applied the remaining wound medicine that Durandal had used earlier to the other person.

Of course, you also need to rinse it with hydrogen peroxide before applying the medicine.

Chen Luo didn't know if hydrogen peroxide would hurt, but seeing the little fox who was already unconscious twitching, Chen Luo roughly knew that it wasn't very comfortable.

After disinfection, apply medication where necessary and suture directly where appropriate.

With the help of his profession as a puppeteer, Chen Luo can stitch up the other person without leaving any wounds.

Because what Chen Luo used wasn't a thread, but power.

After all the injuries were treated, the real trouble began: cleaning the little fox's entire body.

The little fox nowadays is the kind of person her mother would beat up. But thankfully, Chen Luo is experienced.

Although it's still quite troublesome to deal with, Chen Luo has nothing to do right now. He's finished the 7-day event, and the bar isn't open.

There was absolutely no commission involved, okay?

Without any commission, Chen Luo could only stagnate.

While you're giving up, it can be quite interesting to rescue a little fox.

What if she turns into Miss Fox to repay a debt of gratitude?

Yeah, go back and press its head down, and make it look at chocolate and vanilla every day.

Although this fox looked like it deserved a beating, Chen Luo was already used to it. The little fox from before was even more mischievous than this one. What kind of stupid things hadn't Chen Luo seen?

Would a normal pet bite a cactus? Yes, it would.

Then Chen Luo locked her in a cage for three whole days. Every time Chen Luo passed by, she would reach for Chen Luo trouser leg with her little paws, looking pitiful.

However, Chen Luo had only let it go for half a day when it ran off to play in some mud puddle. When it came back, it was quite proud, carrying a five-yuan note that it had picked up from somewhere. This made Chen Luo furious.

Five yuan? What are you so happy about? Five yuan isn't even enough to cover the labor cost of giving you a bath.

And do you think I don't have to do homework?

However, having such a mischievous pet isn't without its advantages. For example, when Chen Luo didn't want to do her homework anymore, he would put the homework book in front of her and watch her tear it up.

You can't keep tearing them up; you raise a fox for a thousand days, but only use it for one.

Then the little fox, who was forced to tear up all her homework, ignored Chen Luo for a day.

Do you know how much psychological harm it can cause a fox to chew up a whole backpack full of homework?

It's no less than a major confrontation!

Looking at the fox's somewhat dirty and messy fur in his hand, Chen Luo thought about shaving it off more than once, but when Chen Luo remembered how the White Fox acted as if it was going to die after he shaved a little bit of its fur, he gave up on the idea.

"Thank your predecessors for their sacrifices," Chen Luo muttered as he carefully groomed the little fox's fur.

After cleaning all the hair, Chen Luo took out the Plague Gem and began to infuse it with a small amount of spiritual power.

The Plague Gem reacts when Honkai energy is injected, and it also reacts very weakly when spiritual energy is injected.

But this was exactly the faint light Chen Luo wanted. As a faint flame and warmth were generated on the surface of the Plague Gem, Chen Luo began to use the Plague Gem to groom the pink fox's fur.

While the idea of getting wet might sound appealing, it's essential to dry your cat, dog, or fox as quickly as possible after giving them a bath.

Otherwise... Chen Luo didn't know what would happen, but he just wanted to dry it as much as possible.

"Oh, poor little guy. We don't have a pet dryer at home, so we only have the Plague Gem. We'll just have to make do."

After spending a short time drying the fox's fur and making sure it had shed all the loose fur, Chen Luo hugged it back into his arms and lay down on the sofa to pet it.

Although Chen Luo's medical knowledge did not extend to veterinary medicine, he could tell that the other person was now basically out of danger; his heartbeat was audible and his breathing had become stable.

Well, since he had nothing else to do, Chen Luo started practicing his puppeteer skills while petting the fox.

I started with the simplest carving of wooden puppets, but the basics meant that the other party was important.

Chen Luo didn't have any high-level human materials around him, and since Chen Luo was inclined to modify human puppets, he could only use wooden puppets for practice.

Of course, it can't just be puppets; it also needs some other embellishments.

For example, clothes.

The goal of making a doll is to be lifelike, so every aspect needs to be sculpted perfectly, making it impossible for people to tell at a glance whether it is a real person or a doll.

"Gurgle..." Just as Chen Luo gradually shaping the doll, which was slightly shorter than himself, the pink-furred fox beside him let out a soft groan.

"Alas, shouldn't the fox's cry be a cry of 'The Great Chu will rise, Chen Sheng will be king'?"

Chen Luo scratched his head, then tossed the life-sized doll standing on the ground aside, walked to the sofa, squatted down, and stared intently into the fox's eyes.

Ahem, Chen Luo was joking about the fox's cry, but this fox was indeed different from the foxes Chen Luo used to keep. The foxes Chen Luo used to keep would whimper.

Under Chen Luo's expectant gaze, the fox, which had been curled up in a ball, weakly opened its eyes.

"Gurgle..." Perhaps due to extreme weakness, the other party could only make unintelligible sounds to confirm that they had woken up.

Perhaps it was because Chen Luo was too close and his face was too big that the little fox was frightened. The little fox tried to struggle and run away, but it was too weak to escape.

After Chen Luo gently picked it up and stroked it a few times, the little fox gave up struggling.

"This [100% Foxes Returning Favors] is quite useful." Chen Luo wasn't referring to the repayment attribute, but rather the increased favorability and affinity towards foxes that this skill provides.

At the same time, Chen Luo's Chen the Great Philanthropist and having Friend of the Non-Human may have also had an effect, but Chen Luo wasn't sure.

Moreover, Chen Luo didn't play with foxes for so long for nothing; he's also mastered some of the finer techniques for petting them.

"Are you hungry, little guy?" Chen Luo asked after stroking the other's chin.

"Goo?" The little fox, feeling very comfortable being petted, let out a sound.

"Don't 'coo coo coo,' repeat after me, 'aww aww aww.'"

"Gurgle?"

"Waaaaah."

The little fox, held in Chen Luo's arms, had a few questions in its big eyes.

"Waaah!" Chen Luo repeated.

"Eek?"

"That's right, you're so smart. Good girl, I'll prepare some goat milk powder for you right away." Chen Luo nodded in satisfaction.

That's the sound a fox should make.

After placing the weak little fox back on the sofa, Chen Luo found the pet goat milk powder in his Storage Space and started making it.

Chen Luo n't know how much stuff is in his Storage Space right now. Basically, he has everything that's available Storage Space Chen Luo Changkong City. Plus, Chen Luo backpack has a search function, making it very convenient to find things.

The reason we feed the fox cubs goat milk powder instead of cow's milk is that cow's milk is not good for them and can easily cause diarrhea.

At least that's what Chen Luo found out just now.

But Chen Luo thought back to when he used to feed his own White Fox, it didn't have so many problems. It would eat whatever he ate, and even eat more happily than he did.

Although Chen Luo didn't have any hot water on hand, didn't that highlight the importance of the Plague Gem?

Using spiritual power to induce heat in the other party makes the Plague Gem a truly excellent heater.

After dissolving the goat milk powder, Chen Luo didn't feed the little fox with a bowl or anything like that. Instead, he took out a syringe.

Feeding the other person liquid food with a syringe while they are still weak is a good option.

Before the other party woke up, Chen Luo had already placed his only Teleport Anchor, which he had upgraded at a cost of 100 Primogem, in the living room of his house.

This Teleport Anchor had a slow healing effect, and Chen Luo dismantled it after healing Durandal.

That's why the little fox woke up so quickly.

However, what troubled Chen Luo was that the little fox didn't seem to like drinking goat milk powder.

Of course, the other party didn't like it, but under Chen Luo's oppressive power, they still drank it.

Chapter 135 The Little Fox with Extreme Intelligence

"Alo, I'm back!" A door appeared out of thin air in the living room, followed by the seemingly carefree voice of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Chen Luo naturally granted the Herrscher of Knowledge the authority to return home from the Honkai World.

"Wow!" But then the Herrscher of Knowledge exclaimed.

"Bang!" A loud noise followed.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Chen Luo poked his head out from the kitchen.

Then Chen Luo saw that the doll he had painstakingly carved for more than two hours in the living room had become a pile of rubble, and in front of that pile of rubble was the Herrscher of Knowledge, still in a punching stance.

"Xiao Shi, what are you doing? That's the result of my two-plus hours of work!" Chen Luo, holding the spatula, suddenly screamed in agony.

"Ah, I'm sorry." The Herrscher of Knowledge obediently apologized.

"This is indeed my fault, I can't refute it, but you're also at fault. Why did you sculpt the doll in the shape of the Thousand-Man Herrscher? That doll-like posture is just annoying to look at." The Herrscher of Knowledge muttered softly.

Imagine you open the door to a bar and see a Thousand-Man Herrscher with twisted joints standing in front of you. Would you react excessively? Of course you would, right? After all, the other person's face is so punchable.

"You still have the nerve to argue? I am the Thousand-Man Herrscher, so it's perfectly normal for me to sculpt the Thousand-Man Herrscher." Chen Luo was furious when he saw the Herrscher of Knowledge talking back.
