Chapter 107: I’m Not the Holy Mother in the Apocalypse 13
Behind Lin Shuangshuang stood a giant swallow over two meters tall, wearing a perfectly fitted tailcoat! It was the swallow’s sharp beak that had just poked her back, but evidently, the bird hadn’t used force, otherwise Lin Shuangshuang would have been pierced through by the beak.
Lin Shuangshuang suddenly saw such a large bird standing so close behind her that her heart reflexively clenched in fear, and adrenaline surged! But after realizing it was just a swallow, Lin Shuangshuang relaxed.
After evolution, plants and animals still adhered to their previous habits — herbivores didn’t eat meat, and those who ate specific prey didn’t switch. For instance, swallows, which lived alongside humans peacefully and only ate insects before mutating, would still not harm people after mutating.
Upon seeing her enemy, Lin Shuangshuang was so agitated that she neglected her surroundings. Luckily, the creature behind her was a swallow. Had it been a mutated mantis or spider, she’d be doomed.
Her peripheral vision swept across a few human-head-sized, fleshy aphids crawling on the huge stalk of a mutated rose not far away. Clearly, this swallow was here for the insects, and Lin Shuangshuang had simply been in its way, prompting the poke to make her move.
Casually, Lin Shuangshuang grabbed the aphids one by one and fed them to the friendly mutated giant swallow in front of her. The bird happily accepted the aphids in its mouth, nudged Lin Shuangshuang’s palm with its head, flapped its wings, and flew away. It looked like this was a swallow with chicks to feed, which explained why it was catching such small aphids that weren’t enough to fill its teeth.
The diversion from the swallow quelled Lin Shuangshuang’s overwhelming hatred. Since she couldn’t kill her enemy right now, she had to suppress it. But seeing Li Man here, it seemed she also knew about Li Wenbo’s cold weapons store and likely came to find some weapons.
In the previous life, when Lin Shuangshuang encountered Li Man, she didn’t have any good cold weapons with her, indicating she hadn’t been able to breach the insect line and enter Li Wenbo’s store. Suddenly an idea struck Lin Shuangshuang; maybe she could use the insects here.
