"Snort, snort~"
The screams of the giant wild boar echoed through the forest, tumbling down to the foot of the hill, its eyes rolling back entirely like a dead pig.
[The wish for controlling the wild boar outbreak has been fulfilled. The overlord-level fox used its robust muscles and brute force to prove to the masses that the national endangered species list is not ranked by risk of extinction.]
[With one punch, you ended the giant wild boar’s dream of dominance, inadvertently saving the townspeople and hunters of Changxi Town.]
[Wish Power +3]
After the mammoth-like giant wild boar fell, a few lines of text gradually appeared in Ansheng’s mind.
Upon seeing the message, Ansheng’s little fox face froze completely, and even the hand covering the small bell involuntarily came down to scratch his head.
For the first time ever, Ansheng saw a number like +3 next to Wish Power Value.
In the past, Wish Power Value increased by +1, +1; it was the first time Ansheng saw such a generous +3.
But judging from the words on the MVP settlement screen.
If not for Ansheng’s intervention, the mammoth-like giant wild boar might have brought a considerable disaster to the people of Changxi Town and the hunting team.
Just because Ansheng could easily handle the giant wild boar doesn’t mean others could manage it as easily.
If the hunters failed to shoot it down in the mountains and instead enraged it into charging into a residential area of Changxi Town, the consequences would be unimaginably tragic.
Ordinary red brick walls of houses couldn’t withstand the rampaging of a boar grown on hormones.
"So... am I really that amazing?" After realizing the anomaly in the Wish Points, Ansheng laughed instantly, never expecting that a mountain visit to settle a score would lead to becoming a hero in Changxi Town.
"Old Chen, old Chen! Make sure you give more attention to the dosage of plant growth hormones in the future, don’t use too much of it..."
"Look, even the wild boars are mutating." Ansheng curiously ran to the wild boar, plucked a tuft of blue hair from the top of the boar’s head, and looked at it twice.
"The head isn’t pointy, it probably didn’t use steroids or growth hormones?"
After researching for a while, Ansheng didn’t find anything significant on the mutated giant wild boar.
But Ansheng did express some acknowledgement of the giant wild boar’s combat power.
Being a dignified two-tailed fox, it had pushed him back more than half a meter.
"Old Chen, stop fiddling with your phone. Quickly call the villagers and tell them to gather at the ancestral hall to distribute boar meat."
Ansheng found some farming ropes from the foot of the hill, tied all the wild boar’s limbs together to ensure it couldn’t charge and cause harm anymore, then said this to Old Chen.
In reality, boar meat isn’t that tasty.
Because it’s not neutered, most of the meat has a very strong gamey taste, and only the smaller boars have sweet and chewy meat.
The reason Ansheng suggested Old Chen distribute the boar meat was quite simple.
Whether it’s palatable or not is one thing; now dozens of tea trees at Skinny Dog Creek have died, and several irrigation pipes have also been damaged by the wild boar charge.
Although fixing it isn’t difficult, not comforting the tea farmers would be unreasonable.
"Ah? Master Fox, what do you want to say?" Old Chen, who had called the forestry bureau, looked at Master Fox in confusion as he heard it purring.
Ansheng felt increasingly that Yu Xueqing was a godsend gem.
Ansheng took Old Chen’s phone and wrote two lines on it.
[What are you dawdling for? Quickly call Changxi Town’s villagers to help, get the boar into the ancestral hall for distribution!]
[Also, offer some consolation to the tea farmers who suffered financial losses. I won’t carry the boar for you.]
Ansheng handed the phone to Old Chen.
After seeing it, Old Chen looked troubled and spoke: "....Master Fox, times have changed, you might not be aware of our current social laws."
"Wild boar meat isn’t consumable now. Damage caused by wild animals to crops resulting in financial losses has to be reported to the forestry bureau. After the bureau handles the overrun animals, they are collected and taken to a designated area for harmless treatment."
"Afterward, the affected villagers report their losses, which the forestry bureau verifies, then reports to the finance department, and subsidies are distributed to affected villagers uniformly."
"Eating is not an option... better trade it for money."
If it were a regular wild boar, eating it secretly wouldn’t be an issue for Old Chen.
But this particular wild boar obviously has physical deformities.
Old Chen wouldn’t dare let the villagers eat this thing, for fear it might cause harm.
Truthfully go through the process and report the status of this wild boar to the forestry bureau.
Whether they send it to a zoo or a treatment area, Old Chen doesn’t care.
"Sniff, sniff——"
After hearing Old Chen’s words, Ansheng found it reasonable and agreed with his handling plan.
"Alright then! I’m going home for a bath first." Ansheng nodded towards Old Chen, withdrew its tail, and happily trotted home using all four limbs.
"My head hurts..."
"Where did such a big wild boar come from?" As Old Chen watched Ansheng leave, he looked at the completely unconscious, limbs bound with rope and wire wild boar, feeling a bit helpless.
Ansheng could naturally go home to sleep.
But Old Chen couldn’t leave, needing to wait for the forestry bureau to come and deal with this oddity.
"A puff of smoke is like being a deity..."
It was late at night, but the mountains weren’t too chilly. Old Chen sat on the steps guarding the wild boar, intending to light a cigarette to ease the earlier fright.
However, as he was pulling out a pack of cigarettes, he realized his lighter was gone.
Feeling puzzled, he searched all over himself.
Instead of finding the lighter, he found a fully loaded Mauser C96 pistol.
Old Chen froze, then quickly chased after Ansheng.
"Master Fox, don’t mess around! There’s criminal law! I’m just a few years from retirement!"
"If I go to jail, my pension turns into social security!"
Old Chen hurriedly caught up to Ansheng, as if holding a hot coal, and returned the Mauser pistol to Ansheng.
Ansheng suggested Old Chen keep it for protection, in case the boar charged at him again.
But Old Chen refused no matter what.
......
"Sniff, sniff, sniff——"
In a great mood, Ansheng returned to Changxi Town. The time was now past eleven at night.
Ansheng hurried home with Lai Foo and the sheepdog, intending to get back before Ah Qing went to sleep so she could help him with a bath.
After bathing, he’d call Lin Ying for dinner, then relax in the living room scrolling through his phone.
However, upon returning home, Ansheng’s wish list suddenly refreshed with a new wish.
[Xiaolan, where are you! I’m so scared... Stupid Xiaolan, why aren’t you back yet? - Yu Xueqing, lying in bed watching seductive fox videos, unintentionally saw four moving tentacles on the nightstand.]
[Wish fulfilled: Cockroach is concerned about you.]
Seeing the new wish refresh in the list, Ansheng’s face changed dramatically.
Cock... cockroach!
Oh no, Ah Qing, don’t mess with me! I’m also scared of those creepy crawly bugs!
