Chapter 204 The Head Office's Challenge

Another god descent type!

Li Tianran raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at the data emerging from Ding Lu's body.

His luck seemed to have been pretty good lately.

Although the god descent ability on Ding Lu wasn't as monstrous as Xiao Hei and Hai Yao, it was still decent enough to satisfy Li Tianran.

After all, the 80% chance of atavistic evolution wasn't just for show!

Getting a god descent type with one fruit was already like burning incense to thank the heavens!

"What... what's going on?" Ding Lu's voice sounded, tinged with panic. Soon, his body materialized again, his face filled with disbelief as he looked at his hands. "I... have I become a monster?"

"Woof..."

Xiao Hei, standing to the side, wagged his ears with extreme disdain, looking at Ding Lu with the air of a senior, letting out a low whimper.

"This is the power of an evolver," Li Tianran said calmly, "But you must remember, if one day you become a beast driven by this power, I will personally take this power and your life together."

Ding Lu trembled all over. He had never imagined that he would one day become a legendary 'god'!

"Boss, I will work hard! I will definitely not let you down!" Ding Lu said, suppressing his excitement and gritting his teeth.

After the evolution, his articulation had actually become smoother...

"Good, familiarize yourself with your abilities, and then prepare for work," Li Tianran nodded.

...

Headquarters.

Bai Changyun looked at the email in his inbox, expressionless, and asked the other two old men beside him, "Did you all receive this email?"

"..." The Ren family's leader and the Lan family's leader nodded.

"Gag尔 and Ren Xiao, along with the people they took to Nan City, have all lost contact," Bai Changyun said, laughing in anger, "I long suspected that the last incident with Bai Jingyan in Nan City wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface. There must be some hidden enemies in Nan City. This time, my thoughts have been confirmed!"

"He wants us to... stop the research on evolvers," the Lan family's leader looked at the email and said, "It should be related to Bai Jingyan!"

"I don't care who he is! Repeatedly provoking headquarters only leads to one path!" Bai Changyun stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with a murderous aura that almost materialized. "Find him, I will grind his bones to ashes!"

"A cowardly hiding head and showing tail! I'd like to see what he can do if we don't stop the evolver research project!"

Bai Changyun roared, his murderous aura chilling!

...

Ding Lu was busy all afternoon.

During this time, Li Tianran accompanied him to retrieve his father's memorial tablet, which Ding Lu placed in a corner of the first floor of the small building for worship.

Han Han also obtained Ren Xiao's memory footage. After she spent some more time sharing it with Li Tianran's brainwave magnetic field, Li Tianran obtained everything he wanted.

"Big brother, who is this new boy?" Han Han leaned on the windowsill, watching Ding Lu busily working in the farm, and asked with some confusion.

"Our... new employee?" Li Tianran hesitated for a moment, unsure how to define Ding Lu's identity.

Calling him a subordinate... didn't seem appropriate. Calling him family... was even more inappropriate.

"He looks very shy. I went to give him some fruit to eat just now, but he didn't want it. He's been working non-stop... he's wiped the iron fence in the cowshed more than a dozen times, and he's still wiping it." Han Han tilted her head and blinked her eyes, saying, "I told him to take a break, but he wouldn't!"

Li Tianran smiled.

He understood Ding Lu's behavior very well.

Ding Lu was now like a recent college graduate who had just joined a company, afraid of doing something wrong and lowering the boss's opinion of him. Even if he finished his work, he still didn't dare to stop, constantly looking for work outside of his responsibilities to keep himself busy...

"Don't be too cold or too caring towards him, just treat him like a friend who used to come to our house to help," Li Tianran said softly.

For Ding Lu at this time, being too cold or too caring would only make him very uncomfortable...

"Okay, Han Han understands," Han Han nodded obediently.

"What about her?" Li Tianran pointed to another room with his mouth.

Li Tianran's two-story small building had seven or eight bedrooms. He had cleared out two more for Ren Xiao and Ding Lu to live in, but ever since Han Han forcibly invaded Ren Xiao's brain, she had been hiding in her room and refusing to show her face.

"She won't eat or drink, and she refuses to chat with me," Han Han spread her hands helplessly.

"..." Li Tianran was silent for a moment, unable to find a better solution for the time being, but now that the sky was gradually darkening, he had more important things to do next.

Make dinner.

Although Ding Lu knew how to cook some dishes, he was still far behind Li Tianran at this time.

Li Tianran decided to teach Ding Lu for a while before letting him take over the kitchen...

Otherwise, it would be a waste if these precious Beast King meat were not cooked well!

There was nearly ten tons of meat left from the two Beast Kings he had hunted before. In this cold weather, there was no need to go to the trouble of storing it.

Since the number of people eating tonight had increased, Li Tianran cooked a few more dishes.

Stewed meat with mushrooms, spicy chicken, stir-fried bok choy with oyster sauce, and finally a steaming copper hot pot.

The table was full of delicacies.

Xiao Hei didn't like cooked food now, so he hugged a large piece of Beast King meat and gnawed on it outside the livestock shed, its fierce appearance scaring the livestock into trembling...

For this copper hot pot, Li Tianran also made some beef balls, shrimp balls, sliced meat and vegetables. By the time he finished, it was already around eight o'clock in the evening.

Li Tianran mixed sesame sauce and chili oil together, called Han Han and Ding Lu to sit around the table, and prepared to eat!

He and Han Han devoured everything, and soon the dishes on the table were almost empty.

Li Tianran noticed that Ding Lu was still very restrained, only picking up the dishes in front of him with his chopsticks and chewing small bites. As long as the distance was slightly farther, he would not reach out again.

"Eat this, try it!" Li Tianran grabbed a large chopstick of lamb slices from the hot pot and put them in Ding Lu's bowl, saying calmly, "Eat more, or it will be left over."

Ding Lu's eyes showed a trace of gratitude. Ignoring the scalding hotness of the lamb slices, he swallowed them in large mouthfuls.

Half an hour later, dinner ended.

Ding Lu took the initiative to wash the dishes and clean up the house. Li Tianran was happy to be idle. He left the farm and logged into Ren Xiao's email using a mobile device that did not belong to his own identity.

He saw an unread email.

It was a reply from headquarters.

He chuckled softly and then opened the email.

A line of shocking bold letters came into Li Tianran's eyes.

"No matter who you are, no matter where you are, we will find you and your family, tear you apart by five horses! Shred you to pieces! - Umbrella Corporation!"
