Chapter 643 Divine Martial Continent (5)
It must be said that the conditions in the military region are good. Although Zhou Yingcheng is only a major, the house he applied for is 500 square meters, plus a small courtyard, which adds up to nearly 700 square meters, which is quite good.
Upon arriving at the residential compound, Wangyou realized that life wasn't much better for the people there. Most of the women in the compound had cultivated a plot of land, and although the crops weren't thriving, at least they had something to eat.
Wangyou has unlocked all the talents except for farming (?????), and cooking is also not unlocked.
But not planting is impossible; she can't naturally grow them. However, she can cheat. So, the spirit-gathering array she had carved earlier was used not only by Zhou Yingcheng but also by their family's vegetable garden.
Wangyou infused the seeds with wood-elemental energy, then casually scattered them into the soil, and finally poked the spirit-gathering array plate into the soil, and that was it.
Watching Wangyou's series of actions, Zhou Yingcheng resignedly returned to the vegetable garden and reburied the seeds that hadn't been covered by soil. After all, he had already used the spirit-gathering array, so he couldn't let it go to waste.
"Hey little sister, interested in taking a stroll through the poisonous fog zone?"
"Brother, can I go?"
"Of course you can. I've already talked to my teammates. You just need to come along and look around. You don't need to worry about anything else."
"Go, I want to go, brother, I want to go! I can finally go out! I've been so bored!"
Seeing Wangyou's happy expression, Zhou Yingcheng felt a pang of heartache and sadness. Fortunately, his strength had increased, and he no longer needed to be afraid of anything.
Three days later, the brother and sister prepared their supplies, and Zhou Yingcheng thoughtfully prepared a lot of snacks for Wangyou. The two boarded their small spaceship and joined the main force to set off on a hunt.
When they arrived at the meeting point, Wangyou saw the comrades her brother had mentioned. They were all quite good-looking, though none of those who cultivated supernatural abilities were particularly ugly.
Wangyou simply greeted them and sat down.
"No wonder Yingcheng hid his younger sister so well!"
A few people started chatting about crickets in their small group chat.
"If I had a younger sister like that, I would keep her hidden too."
"This fairy sister is not at all as delicate as other support characters. I hope my parents can give me one too."
"You guys think we should take this opportunity to visit him after this mission is over? We can't keep using the excuse that his sister doesn't like meeting strangers!"
"That's not necessarily true. Apart from glancing at us when she greeted us, the girl rested with her eyes closed the rest of the time."
"Maybe she really doesn't like interacting with people, she's socially awkward!"
While chatting in the group, they soon arrived at the area where the poisonous fog was spreading, which was also outside the city.
As soon as she stepped off the spaceship, Wangyou felt unwell. Looking at the spreading mist, she gave herself an antidote pill and put on her gas mask.
She only thought of making the gas mask a few days ago, and it seems to be working well so far.
"Brother, you should wear one too."
“Okay.” Zhou Yingcheng had no objection and put it on immediately. He immediately felt the difference and his eyes crinkled into a smile. “Follow behind me. It’s not safe inside.”
"Don't worry, brother, I won't run around." Wangyou nodded seriously and stood behind Zhou Yingcheng with her small basket.
After the others finished taking the antidote, they naturally noticed the masks the brother and sister were wearing. They assumed the little girl was just not used to it since it was her first time there, since they had been like that at first too.
The poisonous fog obscured visibility beyond two meters. No wonder it's considered dangerous. If there's any danger here, anyone with slightly less skill wouldn't be able to escape.
The group cautiously formed a protective formation, surrounding the support members in the center.
Wangyou held the poison in one hand, and put the basket into her spatial storage while glancing at the weeds on the ground. The other assistants did the same.
The bracelet on my wrist kept sending various messages: highly toxic, mildly toxic, moderately toxic. Generally, moderately and mildly toxic substances are safe to eat directly, but they are usually cleansed with a third-grade medicine first to minimize the toxicity.
As they ventured deeper, they began to hear the roars of strange beasts, and the group became even more vigilant.
Amidst this vigilance, Wangyou keenly sensed a different aura, like spiritual energy, but slightly different from it. Wangyou guessed it was some kind of spiritual herb.
Wangyou tugged at her brother's sleeve. Zhou Yingcheng bent down, and Wangyou whispered, "Brother, there are spirit herbs over there, more than one."
Zhou Yingcheng nodded, said something to the others, and the group slowly headed in the direction Wangyou had pointed.
As they got closer, the other support personnel sensed it, quickly reported it, and even quickened their pace.
Upon arriving at the destination, the group split into several groups to dig for spirit herbs. Wangyou worked with a few assistants, but she seemed somewhat distracted.
The spiritual herbs that grow in the poisonous fog are generally not poisonous, which is very strange. Is there something wrong with the soil? Wangyou is the kind of person who does things on a whim, so he immediately dug up the spiritual herbs along with the soil, but not much.
There are quite a few spiritual herbs here, and many different kinds, so it will take some time to dig them up.
While digging, Wangyou suddenly wanted to eat chicken, and sure enough, a chicken appeared. A one-meter-tall chicken rushed over, and the warriors immediately went into battle mode, unleashing their superpowers. Then they saw the chicken crash into itself and die right in front of Wangyou.
"Brother, can we have chicken stew with mushrooms tonight?" Wangyou asked excitedly, grabbing a chicken feather. Actually, she wanted to grab the chicken's neck, but the neck was a bit thick.
“Okay, Forget-Me-Not Sister, of course you can eat it, but it has to be tested and processed before you can eat it,” Song Nan, one of Zhou Yingcheng’s good friends, said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll make it for you tonight." Although Zhou Yingcheng was surprised, fulfilling his younger sister's wish was the most important thing.
The chicken was then put away.
Wangyou felt a little regretful, tugged at her brother's sleeve, and whispered, "Brother, could you give me a complete mythical beast in the back? I want to see why they are not afraid of the poisonous fog and can still live here."
"Alright, anyway, the supplies will be divided equally in the end. That chicken is yours, so you can study it later!"
"Okay." Wangyou nodded, not asking why the chicken wasn't divided equally. After all, anyone with eyes could see that the chicken had crashed to its death right in front of Wangyou, and a warrior couldn't compete with a support for things.
Since we're doing research, one chicken definitely won't be enough. It would be great to have a few more, so we can eat and do research at the same time. If we also had a snake, it would be perfect. We could make a dragon and phoenix stew, which would be absolutely delicious.
There were some things she really couldn't think about, and as soon as she finished thinking about them, everyone heard a rumbling sound.
"Everyone be careful, don't get separated, a strange beast is coming."
The warriors quickly formed a team to prepare to meet the strange beast, but then something even more astonishing happened: the flock of chickens bypassed them completely, found Wangyou perfectly, and then one by one crashed headfirst into themselves and died. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought they were kowtowing to Wangyou.
