Chapter 111: Reminder, Decision

Startled by Ye Xuan’s sudden movement, Liu Yun froze in place while panicking, screaming in her heart, ’Grass! What did I do again?! Why did he suddenly cover my mouth?! Does he want to silence me?! System, help!’

Seeing that nobody had heard her words, he lowered his head and whispered into Liu Yun’s ear, "Younger Sister Liu, we won’t eat vegetable dishes or meat tonight. Just take out something else."

Hearing this, Liu Yun secretly let out a sigh of relief and rolled her eyes at him.

’Can’t he just tell me without covering my mouth? He almost scared me to death just now.’

Although Liu Yun was complaining in her heart, she still obediently nodded in response to Ye Xuan’s words.

Ye Xuan stared at her for a moment, then let go of her mouth. Seeing her wipe her lips, he fell into silence.

"....." Am I that dirty?

Not knowing what he was thinking, Liu Yun accessed her Dimensional Space and took out five packs of instant noodles, five bottles of mineral water, a pair of chopsticks, and a pot for cooking.

Smiling at her, Lan Zuancheng said, "Younger Sister Liu, give them to me. I will cook them for us."

Liu Yun handed everything to him, then looked at Ye Xuan. When she saw him deep in thought, she became curious.

She shifted slightly closer to him, then lowered her voice and curiously asked, "Elder Brother Ye, you don’t like to eat vegetables?"

Asked by her, Ye Xuan came out of his thoughts.

Looking at her curious face, he remained silent for a few seconds, then said, "Younger Sister Liu, vegetables and meat are expensive and very valuable now. Only those with power and wealth can eat them once in a while."

"With soil, water, and air getting polluted, nothing can grow in the soil. If you take out fresh vegetables now, what do you think will happen to you?"

The moment Liu Yun heard this, she froze in place. After a moment of shock, she swallowed nervously and whispered, "Thank you, Elder Brother Ye."

After saying that, she lowered her eyes and thought, ’If not for him, I might be dead by now.’

Although Liu Yun had read countless novels in her previous life, reading about the apocalypse world and living in one were two very different things.

As someone who was raised by loving parents and spent most of her short life in the hospital, this was the first time Liu Yun realized how naive and careless she was.

Clenching her hands tightly, she thought, ’I can’t stay like this forever. I need to adapt to this world’s rules as soon as possible. Not only for my survival, but also...’

She raised her eyes to look at Ye Xuan and the others, then determinedly added, ’But also for them. I must try my best to learn so I won’t drag them down.’

After making her decision, Liu Yun took a deep breath.

Staring at her, Ye Xuan felt for some reason that the aura surrounding her had changed. However, he couldn’t pinpoint what had changed.

Inside Liu Yun’s sea of consciousness, the System looked at the largest virtual screen floating in front of it. As it looked at the data displayed there, it nodded in satisfaction.

"The probability has increased. The chance of completing the last mission in the future is now higher than before."

While the System was observing the data, Lan Zuancheng had finished cooking dinner. After distributing the food equally, he called out to the others.

"Dinner is ready. Come and get your food."

Hearing that, Liu Yun came out of her thoughts. Seeing Lan Zuancheng handing her a bowl of instant noodles, Liu Yun smiled and said, "Thank you, Elder Brother Lan."

"Quickly eat while it’s hot." Lan Zuancheng smiled back at her, then handed the food to his brothers.

After they finished dinner, Lan Zuancheng prepared a bowl of instant porridge for Ru Jianxiao. After he finished feeding Ru Jianxiao, Lan Zuancheng went into their tent and rested early.

Lying inside a smaller tent built beside Ye Xuan and the others’ tent, Liu Yun closed her eyes and accessed her Multiverse Farmland.

After two seconds of dizziness, Liu Yun opened her eyes.

Appearing in the center area of the Multiverse Farmland, Liu Yun opened her Farmer’s status panel, then checked her Farmer Energy.

[100/100]

Calculating the time, she muttered, "I should be able to generate 144 Farmer Energy in one day, but the maximum Farmer Energy I can have right now is only 100. Mhm... I should remember to use my Farmer Energy before it reaches the maximum to avoid wasting it."

Closing the Farmer’s status panel, Liu Yun opened the Farmland Plot 001’s panel, then pressed the Soil Preparation activity button.

Ding!

[Do you wish to cultivate 1 plot of land in Farmland Plot 001, consuming 5 Farmer Energy?]

[Confirm] [Cancel]

Liu Yun changed the number to 20, then pressed [Confirm]. She waited for a few seconds before receiving more notifications from the System.

Ding!

[Successfully cultivated 20 plots of land in Farmland Plot 001. The Player has consumed 100 Farmer Energy.]

Ding!

[Soil Preparation proficiency +20]

Ding!

[Farming Experience +40]

After spending all her Farmer Energy, Liu Yun closed the Farmland Plot 001’s panel and opened the Spiritual Garden’s panel.

Seeing that it was still more than 40 hours before the Spiritual Peach Tree Seeds sprouted, she closed the status panel.

Rubbing her chin, Liu Yun thought, ’Now that I farm through the System Interface, I can save a lot of time and energy. It should be less than two minutes since I came here. Since it is still early, I should check the new products in the Multiverse Farmland Store before leaving.’

Having made up her mind, Liu Yun sat down on the grass, then opened the Multiverse Farmland Store. A few minutes later, she had finished checking all the new seeds that had appeared in the Seed Section.
