System Glitch! I Accidentally Saved The Zombie Emperor
Chapter 41: SpeechlessAs her consciousness returned to her physical body, Liu Yun slowly opened her eyes. For a moment, she felt slightly disoriented, as if she had just awakened from a very deep dream.
Seeing Lan Zuancheng staring at her with a slight smile, Liu Yun quickly rubbed her eyes, pretending that she had just woken up from a deep sleep.
She yawned, then asked sleepily, "Elder Brother Lan, you were calling for me?"
Lan Zuancheng nodded, picked up the bowl of instant noodles, then said, "Here are your instant noodles. You should eat them before they turn soggy."
Liu Yun accepted the bowl, then asked, "Elder Brother Lan, have you guys eaten?"
Lan Zuancheng nodded. "Mhm. We already ate before you came."
Turning to Ye Xuan, Liu Yun asked again, "What about Elder Brother Ye?"
Lan Zuancheng smiled slightly and replied, "Don’t worry about him. Brother Sixun fed Brother Xuan some porridge. His injuries haven’t healed yet, so he can’t eat this kind of food."
Nodding in understanding, Liu Yun picked up the chopsticks and began to eat with relish.
Seeing her eating so heartily, Lan Zuancheng stood up. "You can eat slowly. I’m going to discuss our next destination with the others."
Raising her head, Liu Yun nodded in response.
After Lan Zuancheng walked away, Liu Yun quickly finished her bowl of instant noodles. Taking out the half-finished bottle of water, she drank the remaining water in a few mouthfuls.
Licking the oil from her lips, Liu Yun let out a satisfied sigh. Even though it was only a bowl of instant noodles, having a hot meal in the middle of the Apocalypse felt surprisingly luxurious.
Putting down the plastic bowl, she rubbed her slightly bulging belly.
’Being full is so satisfying. Now that I’ve eaten, it’s time to continue working!’
Leaning against the wall, Liu Yun looked toward the corner where Gu Zhenwei, Lan Zuancheng, Qiu Sixun, and Ru Jianxiao were gathered.
Seeing that Ru Jianxiao was still in a coma while the other three were discussing something in low voices, Liu Yun glanced at them for a moment.
Their expressions seemed serious, but none of them appeared particularly alarmed. Since they didn’t seem to be discussing anything urgent, Liu Yun decided not to interrupt them.
Looking away from them, she quietly opened the System’s main interface.
The second she clicked the Multiverse Farmland icon, Liu Yun felt as if her soul had been sucked out of her body.
Two seconds later, she opened her eyes.
The ruined city, dim surroundings, and the smell of rotten meat mixed with blood were gone. In their place was an endless expanse of darkness surrounding a single patch of black earth filled with refreshing air.
Liu Yun blinked several times before looking at the Farmland Plot 001 in front of her.
Looking beyond the farmland, Liu Yun couldn’t see anything except endless darkness. There was no sky, no ground, and not even a distant horizon.
Strangely, the round sun hung above her head, only illuminating the Farmland Plot 001. It was as if Farmland Plot 001 were floating in an empty void.
Liu Yun stared at the darkness for a few seconds before shrugging.
’Forget it. I will investigate it after I finish the mission.’
Looking at the half-cultivated farmland, she took out the basic hoe from the warehouse, then walked toward Farmland Plot 001.
"Let’s continue!"
Standing in the black soil, Liu Yun raised her basic hoe and swung it down.
Thud!
The metal blade sank into the soft earth, sending a small clump of black soil rolling aside. The soil was surprisingly loose and moist, making it much easier to work than she had expected.
Standing in the black soil, she raised her basic hoe and began to turn the soil again. While working, Liu Yun sang in a good mood.
"Dig~ dig~ dig~! Dig until I find gold!" While singing, Liu Yun happily swung her basic hoe.
Three minutes later, her singing still echoed in the dark surroundings.
"Dig~ dig~ dig~! Dig until I find gold!"
Five minutes later, Liu Yun became more energetic as she sang. "Dig~ dig~ dig~! Dig until I—"
[Player,] the System suddenly interrupted her singing, [Do you want me to play a song for you while you are working?]
Hearing this, Liu Yun paused in the middle of digging the soil. Straightening her sore back, she wiped the sweat off her forehead.
"...Why?" she asked with a hint of curiosity in her voice.
[To improve your working efficiency.] The System replied without emotion.
Liu Yun grinned, then replied, "Thank you for your offer, System, but I like singing. Also—"
She paused, looked at the loose black soil beneath her soles, and added, "I think I’m already very efficient."
Receiving this answer, the System was speechless.
[....]
A few seconds passed, and the System could only turn down its hearing system to the lowest setting.
Not receiving any further response from the System, Liu Yun raised her basic hoe and began digging the black soil again.
While she was singing and working, time flew by without her realizing it. Just as she turned over another patch of soil, a notification suddenly rang in her mind.
Ding!
[Successfully cultivated one farmland plot. The Player has consumed 5 Farmer Energy.]
Before Liu Yun could react, another notification came.
Ding!
[Soil Preparation’s proficiency +1]
When Liu Yun heard the notifications, her eyes immediately focused on the notification.
’Five Farmer Energy for one cultivated slot...’ She unconsciously rubbed her chin. ’If every slot requires five points, then cultivating all twenty-five slots will consume 125 Farmer Energy.’
Her expression became slightly serious. ’Currently, my max Farmer Energy is only 100. I need to pay attention to how quickly Farmer Energy recovers.’
With this in mind, she opened the Multiverse Farmland mission panel.
[Farming Main Mission: Cultivate Farmland]
[Status: 1 / 25]
[Time Limit: None]
[Reward: Farming Exp x 200]
[Penalty: None]
Looking at the number 1 / 25, Liu Yun’s eyes lit up.
’So, that’s how it works!’
