Webnovel Author In The Apocalypse World-Chapter 345 : Invisible Dogs and Spring Surprises

However, Kang Hose suddenly remembered an old legend about Cryo Wolf only appearing in winter.

A thought struck him.

"Could it be that outside of winter, Cryo Wolf remain invisible?" he speculated.

Because the Cryo Wolf were invisible, no one had ever seen them, which led to the idea that Cryo Wolf only appeared in winter.

The logic seemed to fit no matter how someone thought about it.

Invisibility wasn't a common skill, but it wasn't unheard of either.

Over at my small farm's orchard, wasn't there a mutated apple tree that could turn invisible?

So having a few invisible dogs didn't seem too far-fetched.

Kim Haru even started pondering what life would be like if he lived with a group of invisible dogs.

How would he keep track of their movements?

Perhaps he could put collars with bells on them or make some clothes for the dogs to wear.

However, he wondered—would the clothes on these dogs turn invisible along with them?

Kim Haru didn't just keep these thoughts to himself; he voiced them aloud, leaving Go Okrim and Kang Hose utterly stunned.

Kim Haru: "…"

Realizing he needed to clarify the situation quickly, Kim Haru worried that Kang Hose might actually start planning invisible-dog-only pathways on the farm to avoid collisions with other animals.

Kim Haru reached into his pocket and pulled out the Cryo Wolf, who had transformed into sausage-like forms: "They're not invisible. They're right here."

Go Okrim and Kang Hose: "…"

Go Okrim and Kang Hose: "!"

The two of them couldn't reconcile the tiny creatures before them, that was small enough to fit in one palm, numbering eleven—with the enormous Cryo Wolf that had once been too large to fit through a door.

They looked at the tiny Cryo Wolf and then at Kim Haru, who wore a serious expression.

"Are you sure you're not joking with us, Hyung?"

"I'm not joking."

"Unbelievable…"

Go Okrim and Kang Hose were dumbfounded.

Go Okrim leaned closer to inspect the tiny, round Cryo Wolf in Kim Haru's hand and muttered, "Could it be that the Cryo Wolf's massive bodies and fur were all made of ice and snow? Is that why they disappear after winter and melting like the snow in spring?"

"However, that doesn't make sense," Go Okrim countered himself. "I've laid on them and felt their fur before. It was fluffy and warm, nothing like ice or snow."

Even Kang Hose joined in to solve the mystery. "Their fur can't be made of ice or snow. Didn't we use their fur to make pillows before? The pillows are still in their doghouse."

Oh, that's right!

With that reminder, Go Okrim recalled it too.

Still, the scene before them was just too unbelievable.

He would bet that the Cryo Wolf's mutation was the most unscientific one since the apocalypse began.

"Alright, alright. The Cryo Wolf are back, and it's getting late. Since it's the start of spring, let's have hot pot tonight. We'll make a big spicy pot for the three of us and a smaller clear soup pot for the Cryo Wolf and Fuzzball."

Kim Haru tucked the Cryo Wolf back into his pocket.

After all, this world was already full of inexplicable phenomena.

Even reuniting with Fuzzball, who had passed away in his previous life, was proof of that.

So what if there was a winter mystery about the Cryo Wolf?

The lack of a scientific explanation didn't stop anyone from enjoying their meal.

The mention of hot pot immediately diverted Go Okrim and Kang Hose's curiosity about the Cryo Wolf.

They excitedly began planning what to eat.

Even the tiny Cryo Wolf started yipping one after another and demanding the Ginseng Spirit translate their dish preferences.

The thin fabric of Kim Haru's pocket did nothing to muffle their enthusiasm.

Even Fuzzball perked up at the mention of a pot just for her, meowing excitedly to place her order.

Seeing this lively scene, Kim Haru let out a relieved sigh.

In the end, as long as the Cryo Wolf didn't worried about their appearances, it was all good.

As preparations for lunch hot pot were underway at the small farm, Kim Haru received a call through the voice-transmitting snail from the Pyeongseong Safe Zone.

"Jang Dojang, what's the matter? Did something happen in the safe zone?"

"Not at all," Jang Dojang replied with a smile. "It's the start of spring today, and the safe zone commander asked me to call you and see if your small farm needs any assistance."

Kim Haru thought for a moment. "No, things are pretty manageable."

"That's good to hear. If anything comes up, just let us know," Jang Dojang said, then casually added, "By the way, Mr. Kim, now that spring has begun, what should we do with the Greenhouse? And about the fields we plowed last fall—do we need to plant seeds right away?"

"The heating systems in the Greenhouse can be shut down. Let the temperature drop naturally, and from then on, treat it like any other field," Kim Haru replied, clearly having planned this in advance. "Since it's just the start of spring, have someone check the soil conditions in those fields. If the soil is hard, you'll need to plow it again. How busy is the safe zone with construction work right now? There's no rush to plant seeds—waiting a couple of days won't hurt."

"Got it. I'll have the plant research team take a look at the fields. Things aren't too hectic in the safe zone; normally, people would head out to forage at the start of spring. But with you here, everyone feels more secure and is eager to focus on farming."

"Once you've assessed the situation, I'll come by tomorrow to take a look," Kim Haru decided.

"We'd greatly appreciate that," Jang Dojang said.

After exchanging a few more words, they ended the call.

Just as Kim Haru put down the voice-transmitting snail, thinking spring might bring a flurry of activity, a sudden loud shout from outside startled him.
