Almost no one questioned Malin returning with a large cat — in the North, the Snow Leopard is considered the most elegant animal companion in the hearts of many Transcendent Professionals. You could bring a bear, and that’d be fine too, but it wouldn’t pair well with handsomeness. As to why this creature ended up in Europe, Malin got the answer from Jason — after the advancement of technology, many endangered animals began to undergo cloning and were released into the wild, some Snow Leopards were introduced in Northern Europe and The Alps, these modified lives continued to strive for survival even after the great destruction. "I’ve heard about Madam Spotty, she returned to nature, you named it Spotty, are you commemorating that brave lady?" Facing Lulu’s question, Malin naturally nodded; this was a female leopard, and when Malin saw her, she seemed to have already surrendered to Fate, but when Malin unlocked her shackles, instead of running away, she mustered the courage to follow Malin looking for food while biting her own tail. It was merely because Malin told her with Spiritual Energy that following humans would lead to food. She, like the Madam Spotty Malin had once raised, fought hard for survival, and in the end, Madam Spotty left Malin, as she ultimately grew up in the wild, but this little one was different, Malin thought raising it would definitely be a pleasure. "It’s up to you to take care of it." Malin knew he was too busy and certainly not able to properly care for this little creature, but Lulu had time, and she didn’t need to be on the front line, this little one could effectively relieve her boredom. After all, this isn’t Copenhagen... no, wait, Malin almost forgot, a few days ago Malin’s group formation was extremely fierce, now in Copenhagen, not only the youngsters going out for late-night street food, even the ladies dare not hold tea parties, and the gentlemen have to sneak around even to play cards. The bars and salons in Copenhagen faced a crisis that was both laughable and crying, the Malin-style terror made all the young people tuck their tails and behave, and Lulu’s place was hit even harder, in recent days the most popular activity among her peers coming to see her was to read the novels written by Malin. Heaven have mercy, Malin searched his conscience, when was the last time he updated? Then Malin realized he couldn’t come up with any answer — forget it, it’s best to let go of things that are destined to be unanswered, surely the editor-in-chief of the publishing house and that adorable assistant wouldn’t show displeasure at the most brutal time of the war. Anyway, if they really want to be displeased, just let them, without a manuscript in hand, if they want to kill, then kill. Entertaining the idea that a dead pig doesn’t fear boiling water, Malin was trying to find ways to slack off when Xiao Meng came over; the girl must have just finished her duty as a battle Mage, spotting the Snow Leopard in Lulu’s arms, she immediately turned into a wartime poop-scooping officer, joining Lulu in playing with little Spotty. The little one also had a very strong will to survive, acting all cute and stupid, naturally receiving raving comments. Since Lulu had a companion, Malin glanced at his pocket watch, and after bidding farewell, he went to inspect the front line. Speaking of patrolling, Malin’s plan was to walk a round along the trenches, then to check the new duty officers at the Mages’ offices. Therefore, upon leaving, Malin whistled, and the Dwarven Attendant waiting outside immediately appeared in front of Malin, saluting him: "Your Excellency, where are we heading?" "To the first-line trenches for inspection, take your gear." After saying that, Malin took his semi-automatic rifle from the adjacent rack. The Dwarf picked up his semi-automatic rifle. Both grabbed helmets and buckled them onto their heads. Following the patrol plan, Malin also took two signal guns, one for each, he and the Dwarf. The Dwarf walked ahead, Big Beard had just recently groomed his beard in the last few days, probably using the hair care products Malin and Clovis had once co-produced — just as Malin used to think, for Dwarves, their love for their beards far exceeded that of their hair, the hair care products they bought were ultimately used to tend to their beards, and reportedly it worked well, Clovis now works with Rewo, renaming the human hair care product ’Wave Hair’ to ’Red Beard’ when selling to Dwarves, very well-received among them. "Your Excellency, the recent weather has been good, it’s the rare consecutive sunny days in the North, the bathhouse area can now be open all day long, thanks to your help." "It’s nothing, I just think everyone needs a good rest." Speaking of the bathhouse, it claims to be open 24/7, but the water is actually recycled, Malin used World Tree’s fine root systems for filtration, the wastewater was thoroughly Purified, plus the melted snow and a fixed heating system, the soldiers had a very good bathing experience, many soldiers from rural areas had never experienced winter bathing with piped hot water. Moving forward through the communication trench, Malin pulled out a cigarette case, tossed a cigarette to the Dwarf, who turned and caught it, taking out a flint lighter, a must-carry for Dwarves, and lit the cigarette. Malin clamped the cigarette in his mouth, while discreetly taking a glance at the communication trench as he took out his lighter. The dug up and frozen-hard soil had some dot-like red spots, Malin gently wiped it with his Spiritual Energy but couldn’t erase them, he glanced ahead at the ground again, jumping over the Dwarf, and saw some frozen muddy ground in front of the trench which the Dwarf shattered as he walked.
