Chapter 220: Evolution

"Do you remember the way to the slaughterhouse now?" asked Gao Peng.

"Yes," said Dumby, nodding.

"Good. From tomorrow onwards, you'll bring all of those skeletons in the facility back to life and absorb the Flames of the Undead from them. Did you get all that?" asked Gao Peng.

Dumby thumped its chest, indicating that it had understood what Gao Peng had said.

Gao Peng and Ji Hanwu went back to the manor to turn in for the night, while Dumby returned to the treehouse that Gao Peng had built for it and its child in a 40-foot-tall tree.

The treehouse was made of branches tied together with pieces of vine. When Dumby started climbing up the tree, a small head poked out of the treehouse's window and warily peered down.

After seeing that it was Dumby, the little thing retracted its head from the window. Suddenly, a red blur bounded out of the door and leapt into Dumby's arms, then let out a soft purr as it clambered up to Dumby's head.
