The Little White Elephant that Candy mentioned was the three-trunked elephant.
This guy had been on the brink of death after being severely beaten by Ye Zhongming. It was gasping for breath, and everyone thought it couldn't hold on much longer.
There was no choice; the three-trunked elephant had been battered so badly by Ye Zhongming that its head was a bloody mess, completely deformed, with multiple deep dents, and even some wounds oozing out white brain matter.
Under such circumstances, it was only thanks to its status as an eighth-level being that it hadn't died immediately; if it were any other life form, even a seventh-level one, it would have likely perished long ago.
Liu Zhenghong certainly wouldn't let go of a creature of such a high level. She initially planned to move it to her laboratory, but considering the unstable factor of Dr. He still being around, she decided to throw the only surviving eighth-level life form into a warehouse at the villa. Recently, she would come by to draw some blood, cut off a piece of skin, and even once extracted a tube of brain matter from the crack in the elephant's head.
Even the two gleaming ivory tusks, despite being injured, Liu Zhenghong had mentioned waiting for a few days to let Ye Zhongming make her two ivory swords...
Among the things Liu Zhenghong had her eye on, only two people at Cloud Summit Villa dared to compete for them: Ye Zhongming and Le Da Yuan. After Le Da Yuan had been in Liu Zhenghong's bed, he lost all qualifications to vie for them, so the only one who could sway the opinion of the villa's big sister was the boss himself.
But would Ye Zhongming take action because of this? Obviously not; he would just agree cheerfully. As a result, many core members who had their sights set on the three-trunked elephant could only "watch the elephant and sigh," with items like elephant leather clothing, ivory swords, elephant bone spears, and elephant meat feasts drifting further away from them.
However, although they couldn't gain any benefits, some people were still interested in the three-trunked elephant, especially the women. For example, Candy.
This girl was still quite young and, due to her profession as an Alchemist, never saw the battlefield, always under the protection of Cloud Summit. She couldn't be seen during combat, but now that the fighting had ended, she wanted Little Tiger to take her to experience the battlefield atmosphere, to prevent herself from becoming a greenhouse flower.
While wandering around, they arrived at the three-trunked elephant. Candy was very interested in this eighth-level life form that later commanded the mutant legion, as the most talked-about topic these days was the battle between the boss and this creature.
At first glance, Candy fell in love with the white elephant, even though its head still looked disfigured.
Hearing that a significant amount of brain matter had been extracted from it and that it could die at any moment, Candy's heart stirred, and she ran to find Park Soo-young to help treat the elephant's head, hoping to restore some of its original appearance so she could take photos. Upon hearing this, Park Soo-young knew this was not something she could decide on her own, but just then, Liu Zhenghong came by to draw blood, so she asked Liu Zhenghong about it.
Liu Zhenghong examined the three-trunked elephant and concluded that it definitely couldn't be saved. The only reason it was still alive was due to its eighth-level life form constitution. Thus, she agreed.
At worst, they could just crack open the elephant's head later.
So, for the next two days, Park Soo-young came to help Candy cast the gentle chain on the little elephant twice.
Everything was going smoothly; although the three-trunked elephant still looked like it could die at any moment, after wiping off the blood from its head and undergoing treatment, at least its exterior had improved a lot, showing hints of its former grandeur.
Today, Candy and Little Tiger, along with Park Soo-young, who had basically completed the treatment of injured people, came to give it another treatment, planning to have Little Tiger help the elephant stand up so Candy could take a picture.
