Chapter 117: Chapter 117: I Want to Keep a Low Profile, but My Strength Won’t Allow It_1
When Chen Dalong learned that Mutated Mice had appeared on Donglin Street, he was scared into a cold sweat and took immediate action.
First, he arranged for a five-person squad to exterminate those five Mutated Mice.
After dealing with them, he stationed two soldiers in the sewers to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
Chen Dalong felt that he had handled the situation without any issues.
Moreover, after this incident, the standing of Ye Feng’s family among the neighbors was sure to rise rapidly. Overall, it should be considered a good thing.
But Ye Rou’s identity was too significant, and now hearing from Lord Parrot himself, he was truly anxious.
“I have some good news for you,” was the first thing the Mutated Parrot said, instantly relieving Chen Dalong’s worries.
At the same time, he became curious, “Lord Parrot, what good news do you have?”
“The Dragon Lord has made a breakthrough and can now use his Minor Divine Power with even more ease. He can now condense Spirit Fruits to help others achieve rapid breakthroughs.”
“Simply put, you don’t need to come to Sunset Valley. I’ll send you two Spirit Fruits, and your strength will quickly improve,” the Mutated Parrot explained.
Chen Dalong was first shocked, then overjoyed.
He still remembered the wonderful feeling of rapid improvement the first time he was infused with Spiritual Energy.
“Thank you, Lord Parrot!” Chen Dalong hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
“No need to thank me. You earned this with Contribution Points; it’s rightly yours.”
“Additionally, let me clarify that consuming one Spirit Fruit is equivalent to being infused 7.6 times, and two Spirit Fruits are equivalent to 15 infusions, which altogether will cost you 150 Contribution Points,” the Mutated Parrot said.
“Of course, you only have 80 Contribution Points right now. However, for the task of guarding the Ye Family, you performed well, and I’ll give you the 100 Contribution Points reward ahead of time. After giving you the two Spirit Fruits, you’ll be left with 30 Contribution Points,” the Mutated Parrot continued.
Humans are not small in stature, and naturally, their Talent is not lacking either; Chen Dalong could absorb 13 points of Spiritual Energy at once.
The First Order Spirit Fruit contained 100 points of Spiritual Energy, which could be absorbed by Chen Dalong 7.6 times, hence the notion of two Spirit Fruits being equivalent to 15 infusions.
“Alright, I understand,” said Chen Dalong, somewhat excited.
“I’ll be arriving over West Tai Street in three minutes. Try to find a place with fewer people; I’ll just drop the Spirit Fruits to you,” the Mutated Parrot instructed and then hung up the phone.
In fact, at such a time, it would be best to have the underlings of the Mutated Black Crow transport the Spirit Fruits, as this would minimize the chances of being discovered.
But the Mutated Black Crow was undergoing a breakthrough, and under such circumstances, Ye Feng had no way to command the flock of crows.
They had no choice but to have the Mutated Parrot deliver them personally.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Chen Dalong immediately approached the three commanders.
It’s worth mentioning that the last commander who was sent as reinforcements was someone Chen Dalong also recognized.
It was Li Yongming and his Third Squad.
When Chen Dalong first killed the Mutated Wild Boar and handed it over to the Mutant Management Bureau, he had a brief encounter with Li Yongming, although he didn’t have a deep impression of him at the time.
However, during the mission to the Donglin Mountain Range, Zhang Ji, the team leader, was exceptionally warm to him and even mentioned Li Yongming’s recommendation.
Therefore, although Chen Dalong had only met Li Yongming once, he had a good impression of him.
“Commanders, I’m going over there to smoke and rest for five minutes. After that, it’s all up to you,” Chen Dalong went over, interrupted their discussion, and said with a smile.
However, his words immediately heightened the three commanders’ vigilance.
“Are you alright?”
“Did you get hurt somewhere just now?”
“Do you need me to call a medic? You can get a muscle massage.”
They had to be on edge, as normally such critical defense lines would have at least four squads for defense.
However, they were short one whole squad here, and the fact that they could hold the line without casualties was solely due to the presence of Chen Dalong.
If something went wrong with him, they wouldn’t last many more attacks before suffering severe casualties.

“Don’t worry, I’m really alright, just taking a short break,” Chen Dalong reassured them quickly.
The three commanders scrutinized Chen Dalong carefully and, seeing that he really had no injuries, let out a sigh of relief. They suggested he could rest a little longer without hurrying back.
Watching Chen Dalong leave, Shen Chen sighed, “I was worried about this before. Superhumans have far greater stamina than normal people, but they also have limits!”
“It’s only been a little over an hour, and we still have over nine hours to go. What should we do to hold out?” he asked.
As he spoke, the other two fell silent for a moment.
It wasn’t just about the next nine hours; the threat of the rat swarm was escalating. If things continued this way, it would be problematic eventually.
“What do you think about the suggestion I just made? Should we give it a try?” Li Yongming spoke up at this moment.
Hearing his suggestion, both Shen Chen and Feng Jun looked hesitant.
“That method requires bringing up logistics soldiers to help, who haven’t even completed basic training. Aren’t you worried it will lead to chaos?” Feng Jun couldn’t help asking.
