Chapter 18: Electrocuted
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Merlyn and the others looked at Zhao Hai in a daze, not knowing what he was doing. Could it be that he had no way to improve the land?
Merlyn’s heart sank. She had also realized that Zhao Hai had changed a lot recently, but in a good way, so she did not think too much about it. She only thought that Zhao Hai had matured after a huge change, but now that she saw Zhao Hai’s expression, she could not help but worry. She was afraid that Zhao Hai had turned stupid from the huge pressure. freewe bnovel .com
Zhao Hai was also very embarrassed. He was used to using the computer. When he saw such a scene, he could not help but want to click it. Because he did not have a mouse, he could only click it with his hand. However, he completely forgot that what was in front of him was not a physical screen, but a projection.
Scratching his head, Zhao Hai immediately shouted in his head, “Yes.” Then, another Space Farm notification sounded. “Please enter the modification area. Your maximum modification area is ten acres.”
Then, an input box appeared in front of him, and it kept flashing. Zhao Hai immediately thought of ten acres. Then, the number 10 appeared on the input box, followed by the unit, acres.
Zhao Hai thought that he could modify it like this, but he did not expect the notification to continue. “Please choose the method of modification. Space soil modification/space water modification/custom.”
Zhao Hai was being driven crazy. He had also noticed the way Merlyn and the others were looking at him, but there were still so many procedures. He immediately clicked on custom. He had already calculated the best ratio, so of course he was going to select the custom option.
As expected, after he chose custom, an input box immediately popped up in front of him. The Space Farm notification sounded again. “Please enter the ratio of space water and space soil.”
Zhao Hai immediately entered six for space water and four for space soil. Fortunately, he could put the numbers just by thinking and not have to move his hands to write. Otherwise, others would think he was crazy.
After the input was completed, there were no further notifications. Zhao Hai was relieved. Then, he saw a pocket-sized hole suddenly appear beside him. Then, a grayish thing flew out of the hole and landed on the black soil in front of him.
It was impossible to tell if the gray thing was space soil or space water. It looked like a cloud of dust. However, when it landed on the black soil, the black soil changed at a visible speed. The oil-like color slowly became lighter and became the color of normal black soil, forming a contrast with the surrounding land.
The location the gray thing landed on was quite interesting. It was exactly ten acres of land. Not a bit more, not a bit less, and the land was the exact land measured by Merlyn and the others. There was also a shallow ditch at the side that separated the modified ten acres of land from the surrounding land, making it obvious.
Only when the ten acres of land was completely modified did the hole beside Zhao Hai slowly disappear. Zhao Hai walked to the edge of the modified land and grabbed a handful of soil from the ground. He looked carefully and saw that this soil had already turned into fertile black soil, just like he had expected.
Zhao Hai grabbed the soil and laughed loudly. He had finally succeeded. He could plant things in these ten acres of land. As long as he had this ability and this large piece of land, it would be difficult for him to starve in the future.
Zhao Hai’s laughter also woke everyone up. When the hole appeared beside Zhao Hai, they were all stunned. They had never encountered such a thing. Everyone lost the ability to speak and stood there in a daze as they watched the black soil change bit by bit.
It was not until Zhao Hai laughed that they came back to their senses. Almost everyone could not help but do the same thing as Zhao Hai. Be it the slaves or Merlyn and the others, everyone went forward and grabbed a handful of soil to take a closer look.
Merlyn and Meg might not be able to tell much, but those slaves were mainly farmers. They could tell at a glance that this soil was very different from before. It was the same as the soil they used to plant on in the past, or even better.
They burst out in cheers. Although they were slaves, they were not idiots. After coming to the Black Soil Wilderness, they knew their situation, but they really did not expect to see such a magical scene one day.
Merlyn couldn’t stop her tears from flowing. Although she had never farmed, she could still tell the difference between the modified land and unmodified land at a glance. This land was not just a piece of land. It was also the hope of the Buda family. fre ewebn ovel
Meg was the same. Tears fell from her eyes from excitement. She had not expected this happy day to come so quickly and so suddenly. Although she had thought of this before, she was still stunned when the moment arrived. She suddenly lost the ability to think and speak. She seemed to have turned into a wooden statue, but tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.
Meg suddenly threw down the black soil in her hand and ran to Zhao Hai’s side. Zhao Hai had already calmed down. Because of the Space Farm, he did not pay as much importance to improving the land as Merlyn and the others, so he recovered the fastest.
At this moment, Meg suddenly ran to Zhao Hai and hugged him. Zhao Hai was stunned. He did not expect Meg to hug him.
Zhao Hai knew about the past between Adam and Meg, but he did not know about Meg’s feelings for Adam. In the memories he had obtained from Adam, he only had lust for Meg. It could be said that the previous Adam was really a b*stard. He did not care about Meg at all. The memories of his childhood were long blurry, and in the memories he had when he was young, there was no love for Meg, only desire.
Of course, Zhao Hai did not know about Meg’s feelings for Adam, so he was really stunned when Meg hugged him. He wondered what was wrong with Meg.
In his previous life, Zhao Hai was an otaku and had some inferiority complex, so he had never found a girlfriend. He had not even touched a girl’s hand. He could be said to be the otaku among otakus, a model of boredom.
It was because of this that Zhao Hai did not dare to face Meg after knowing what Adam had done to Meg. He was afraid of facing Meg. He did not know if he should be responsible for Meg or stay away from her as far as possible, lest Meg remember those unpleasant things when she saw him.
Therefore, Meg’s hug really frightened him. He stood there helplessly, not knowing if he should push Meg away or hug her back.
Merlyn also noticed Meg’s abnormality. As the person who knew Meg the best, Merlyn knew very well how Meg felt about Adam, but it was also because of this that Merlyn knew very well how deeply Adam’s actions had hurt Meg in the past.
At that time, Merlyn watched over Meg every day, afraid that she would commit suicide, but she did not commit suicide. Instead, she was like a person who had lost her soul, making Merlyn’s heart ache. However, there was nothing she could do because she knew very well that feelings of heart could only be healed by the person themselves. No one could help Meg in this matter. The only person who could help her recover was Adam.
However, Merlyn did not have any hope in Adam. To be honest, she was extremely disappointed in Adam. If not for the fact that they had been raised by the Buda family, she would have stopped caring about Adam.
However, after Adam woke up in the Black Soil Wilderness, he seemed to have changed into a different person. He became sensible and stable. Moreover, he had obtained a very strange ability. Most importantly, he was not as mischievous as before. He did things in an orderly manner. Of course, she did not know that the person now was not Adam, but Zhao Hai.
Merlyn had also noticed the changes in Meg over the past few days. Meg had been stealing glances at Zhao Hai. Moreover, Meg would appear in front of Zhao Hai from time to time. It was impossible for this to happen in the past.
After that incident, Meg had always avoided Zhao Hai whenever she could. If she really could not avoid him, she would lower her head and stand there, trying her best not to attract Zhao Hai’s attention.
However, over these few days, she would appear in front of Zhao Hai from time to time and even serve him water, wake him up, and take care of his life. This made Merlyn very puzzled, but seeing Meg’s action, she finally understood her thoughts.
It took a while for Meg to let go of Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai’s face was red. He had never been so intimate with a girl in his previous life. Although he had obtained Adam’s memories, Zhao Hai’s memories were the dominant part, so he was really not used to Meg’s passion.
Meg’s face was also red after letting go of Zhao Hai, but she was clearly in a better state than Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai’s face was red, and his mouth opened and closed, but he did not say a word.
Meg looked at Zhao Hai and suddenly giggled. She glanced at Zhao Hai coquettishly and turned to run. Zhao Hai looked at Meg’s back and felt like he had drunk ten bottles of wine. He was so drunk that he had lost the ability to think.
Meg was a beautiful girl. Zhao Hai liked to see Meg, but because of what Adam had done to Meg, Zhao Hai felt guilty when he saw Meg. Therefore, he had been thinking of ways to avoid Meg these past few days. Even when he was with Meg, he tried not to be alone with her.
But Meg’s hug and gaze had shocked Zhao Hai, letting him know that it was not impossible for there to be feelings between him and Meg.
