Chapter 14: Chirpy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Zheng sat on the ground in the dark cave, holding a lantern in one hand and occasionally putting a ginseng flower in his mouth.

On the ground in front of him, a little terror bat was holding an object the size of a pigeon egg and nibbling on it.

“Gene cores are used to raise pets. Although this little thing is still an infant, its teeth are quite powerful.”

Li Zheng looked at the level 1 gene core and it was as hard as metal.

But the little terror bat was able to make a small dent on it.

Even though it some effort for it to eat it, he could feel the little terror bat’s joy.

After finishing a stalk of ginseng, Li Zheng took out his water bottle and opened it with one hand.

“Ahhh…”

After gulping down three mouthfuls of water, Li Zheng exhaled in satisfaction.

“Chirp!”

The little terror bat made a sound.

Li Zheng looked down and saw the little one staring at the water bottle in his hand.

“Do you want some too?”

“Chirp.”

The little terror bat nodded and put down the half-eaten gene core.

“Alright, I’ll pour you some.”

Li Zheng placed the bottle cap in front of the little terror bat and poured some water into it.

With the little terror bat’s size, the bottle cap was just enough.

It buried its head in the bottle cap and muttered, “gulp, gulp, gulp …”

Then, it raised its head and burped.

Li Zheng was taken aback. Was this little fellow imitating him?

But he didn’t burp?

It seemed to have realized that something was wrong and covered its mouth with its two short limbs and looked around in panic.

When it saw the gene at the side, it pointed at it and shouted at Li Zheng, “chirp!”

It seemed like it was complaining to Li Zheng.

“You’re saying that the burp was because of that?”

“Chirp!!”

The little terror bat nodded.

Li Zheng pretended to be surprised. “But it didn’t drink any water just now.”

“Chirp?”

The little terror bat paused, but it quickly reacted. It picked up the gene core and threw it into the bottle.

He then pointed at it and shouted, “chirp, chirp!”

Li Zheng wanted to tease it, so he said with a smirk, “it did drink water, but it didn’t burp.”

The little terror bat looked at the half-eaten gene core in the bottle.

He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but Li Zheng saw a red blush spreading through the little terror bat’s face..

“Chirp, chirp!”

The little terror bat turned around, holding the bottle. It was either embarrassed or angry at Li Zheng for laughing at it, but it gnawed at the gene core with its teeth.

“Hahaha…”

Li Zheng found it funny and reached out a finger to stroke its head. “Alright, alright, I know you’re a proper lady, alright?”

“Chirp…”

The little terror bat closed its eyes in enjoyment. Suddenly, it remembered that it was still angry, so it snorted again to show that it was still angry.

“Yes, yes, yes. Ladies don’t burp. That burp was from the gene core.”

Li Zheng tried to comfort the little creature, but it seemed to understand that he was teasing it andbegan to gnaw on the gene core even more fiercely.

“This little creature…”

Li Zheng was speechless. It’s so hard to coax it?

Li Zheng opened the pet interface and looked at the three question marks in its personality description field. He thought he could fill in the blank now.

It must be stubborn and spoiled!

“Yep, that’s right.”

Li Zheng noticed that he had not named it.

It stopped eating when it heard the sound. It perked up its ears to listen to Li Zheng.

It’s waiting for him to coax it.

The little terror bat wondered if it should do something to Li Zheng later if he’s not successful.

It was reasonable for a child to wet the bed at night, right?

Li Zheng didn’t know what the little fellow was thinking, and continued, “you don’t have a name yet. Why don’t I give you one now?”

“Chirp?”

A name?

What was that?

Was it delicious?

The little terror bat thought that if the name was harder than the one it was eating now, it would not be able to bite through it.

“A name isn’t something you can eat, but something to distinguish people with. In the future, you’ll know that I’m calling you by this name. ”

Li Zheng explained.

“Chirp…”

So it wasn’t food…

The little terror bat was a little disappointed.

“You must have a name. I can’t always call you ‘little fellow’ or ‘little thing’, right? It’s so unpleasant for a lady to be addressed like that. ”

“Chirp? Chirp!”

The little terror bat felt that Li Zheng’s words made sense and immediately expressed that it wanted to hear what name Li Zheng was going to give it.

“Mm…”

Li Zheng thought for a moment before saying, “you’re always chirping, so why don’t I call you ‘Chirpy’?”

“It’s a beautiful name.”

“Chirp?”

It felt like the name was not good enough.

“It sounds like a name for a sunny and cute girl. That’s why I gave you this name.”

“Chirp?!”

Cute?

It immediately agreed.

“Look at how narcissistic you are. You immediately accepted this name when you heard the word ‘cute’.”

Li Zheng patted Chirpy’s head and shook it back and forth, almost causing the little fellow to fall over.

“Chirp!”

Chirpy grunted and dodged Li Zheng’s hand. It picked up the rest of the gene core and turned around to hand them to Li Zheng.

“Chirp, chirp.”

As a token of my appreciation, here’s the rest of the delicious food.

“…”

Chirpy thought that it might have given too much to Li Zheng, so before Li Zheng could accept it, it quickly gnawed off half of the gene core and handed it back to him.

“…”

This creature was not only arrogant, but also stingy!

“Forget it. It’s for you. I can’t bite it.”

Li Zheng waved his hand in refusal.

“Chirp!”

When it heard that, it quickly swallowed the last bit.

Then, Li Zheng received a system notification.

[Pet Chirpy has consumed a level one gene core and has become an elite.]

[Current level: black-iron grade elite]

[Pet Chirpy has advanced to an elite and obtained a new ability: rapid flight.]

Following the arrival of the system notification, Chirpy seemed to feel the changes in her body. She suddenly unfurled the wings that were retracted.

“Chirp?”

Looking at its own wings, Chirpy’s face was filled with curiosity.

Why did it suddenly feel stronger?

“Flap, flap”

Flapping its wings, Chirpy had her first flight in her life.

After it woke up from the hibernation chamber, its little wings had not fully developed and were curled up on its back.

It had almost forgotten that it could actually fly.

“Flap, flap, flap …”

Chirpy circled above Li Zheng’s head, flying faster and faster as she let out a joyful cry.

Li Zheng looked at the happy creature and smiled like a father.

At that moment, another system notification popped up.

[It is now 19:00. The matrix has entered nighttime. Some creatures will gain an increase in ability at night.]

[Some creatures will be weakened at night.]

[The number of rooms to be explored will be refreshed at exactly 00:00 every day. Players who still have remaining rooms, please explore them as soon as possible.]

[After 00:00, the matrix will scan for survivors. Surviving players who have reached the age of 50 will be removed. Please be prepared.]

[A pregnant player has been detected in the matrix. Removal operation in progress. Players, please be prepared.]

[Players to be removed are those who turned 50 years old, pregnant women, and disabled people. If the disabled and the pregnant have recovered, their memories will be erased and they will re-enter the matrix.]

[Countdown: 05:00]

[04:59]

A series of notifications popped up, and Li Zheng immediately opened the chatroom. He realized that there was an uproar in both the regional and world channels.
