Free Web NovelChapter 574: Chapter 572: The Time-Traveler Who Self-Destructed 18 Times (Part 3)
The current planting space is not large; you can see its entirety at a glance. At the far end is a dense white fog, impenetrable, but the space can be expanded. According to the plot setting, it should expand as more crops are harvested.
The space construction is also simple: a piece of land, a forest, a small stream, and a straw hut.
Ah Chen crouched by the creek, dipping her hand in the water. The water was crystal clear and slightly better in quality than ordinary water—not magical, but sweet and pleasant when she took a sip.
As for the Spiritual Spring with special effects, it was originally beside the house, but its "owner" hasn’t appeared, and naturally, it hasn’t manifested yet.
The land is currently barren, even overgrown with weeds and devoid of any crops.
The Commissioner had already self-destructed eighteen times, determined not to stay in this world, so naturally, they had no mood to tend to things, let alone plant anything.
Ah Chen pushed open the door of the straw hut; the furnishings inside were simple.
What attracted her the most was a dust-covered Bright Pearl on the desk shelf, about half the size of a fist, currently lacking any luster.
However, in the plot, this dusty Bright Pearl was extraordinary.
As long as the things remembered by the Commissioner could be created in this world, their formulas could be replicated, such as glass, soap... However, there is a prerequisite: Jiang Zhi, the true "owner" of this space, must touch the Bright Pearl with the Commissioner; in other words, without Jiang Zhi, the formula can’t be replicated.
It is indeed quite an irritating setting.
No wonder the Commissioner, knowing that following the plot setting worked well, still chose self-destruction. For a proud person, this was undoubtedly a humiliation.
Ah Chen reached out, touched the dusty Bright Pearl, and gently picked it up, playing with it.
"Are you willing to come with me, or should I take the initiative?"
This dusty Bright Pearl is precisely the core of the entire space; it wasn’t certain before, but now it definitely is.
The novel plot is not exhaustive in specifying every detail; once it evolves into a real world, the rules will automatically complete themselves.
As her words fell, it was obvious the Bright Pearl began to tremble.
Ah Chen soon heard the message conveyed from the other side: it feared her, aware it could not resist her, but also worried that if Jiang Zhi, set as the owner, did not follow the plot, it might bring about the world’s collapse.
Ah Chen had over tens of thousands of Sub Souls, each with a system accompanying her to small worlds for missions, having gone through countless worlds this way.
She said confidently, "As long as he doesn’t die, this world will not collapse."
"Even if he accidentally died for not being obedient, Jiang Zhi would still exist in this world. As long as Jiang Zhi exists, this world won’t collapse."
Who says Jiang Zhi necessarily has to be the original Jiang Zhi?
Finding someone to replace him would be the same.
From the Commissioner’s brief days interacting with Jiang Zhi, the person actually seems quite capable. If unnecessary, she wouldn’t replace him.
This is also why she came to this deserted island.
If Jiang Zhi is still capable, he should remain the protagonist, given this newly formed small world still has many troubles awaiting him.
Finding another person, if they lack skill, would inevitably waste a lot of effort in this regard.
As for how to use this space, Ah Chen looked at the barren land outside, with its person-high wild grass—surely someone needs to cultivate the land?
Such tall grass needs people to clear it out.
The land is very suitable for planting; leaving it wasted is indeed a pity.
Moreover, this space is connected to the outside world and occasionally receives orders. As such, the male and female leads in the novel brought countless changes to this world, also managing to overcome some special powers.
Yes, this is a world with special powers; without the auxiliary space, the protagonists couldn’t handle emerging threats.
Jiang Zhi’s status is quite noble, but placed in that position due to the novel’s setting, relying solely on his own abilities to complete those story arcs is rather challenging.
The more effort, the more gain - if the other party is intelligent, for the sake of greater purposes, they should be willing to work hard.
If he’s not willing... that shouldn’t really happen.
Jiang Zhi is different from Chu Xuefei.
He’s a man of this world, a Prince cast adrift to the deserted island amid political struggle, not likely to miss this opportunity.
For Ah Chen herself, undertaking a world mission and gaining soil from two worlds is worthwhile.
"How is it?" Ah Chen asked the Bright Pearl in her hand.
In an instant, the Bright Pearl emitted a burst of light, shedding all dust, revealing a beautiful, shiny pearl. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Simultaneously, the entire space underwent changes.
The Spiritual Spring, which only appeared because of Jiang Zhi, now manifested beside the straw house.
Faintly, Ah Chen felt the planting space had recognized her as its owner.
"So obedient, I won’t mistreat you," she smiled contentedly, placing the Bright Pearl on the shelf, gently touching it, "Right now, it can’t automatically cultivate or weed, can it? Someone will be found to handle these soon."
Hearing the Bright Pearl’s joy, Ah Chen felt quite pleased too.
The Bright Pearl was happy, naturally, because the upgrading of the planting space relied on continuous planting.
"Find several more people to farm by then," Ah Chen added.
The Bright Pearl became even happier, full of anticipation.
If it had hands, it would have wanted to rub them together.
Suddenly, it felt quite good to make her its master, better than the fate sensed in some unseen way.
Ah Chen wandered around the house again; at the back was a warehouse, where she found many seeds and farming tools, taking some out.
They should be usable soon.
As for those outside orders, they won’t appear for a while, but when they do, they will appear directly on the desk, next to the Bright Pearl.
The method of delivery is simple: package the items, attach the order, and that’s it.
As for what kind of trade the other party suggests, that will be up to destiny.
If it feels unsuitable here, just tear up the order.
According to the novel plot, generally speaking, the outside orders present quite reasonable offers.
If the order came from that kind of small world in crisis, Ah Chen steadied her mind: wouldn’t she gain another world’s soil?
This task is indeed well-received.
[Bring more such tasks in the future.] This was said to 997.
She and 997 shared a permanently bound relationship; no matter what he was doing, he could hear Ah Chen’s voice, feeling her joy, and 997 immediately agreed: [Sure, host.]
With a thought, Ah Chen exited the planting space.
The golden finger issue solved; she hadn’t forgotten other matters in Ning County.
This year, they probably won’t select the Dragon King’s Consort again; in the short term, there’s no worry about having another innocent girl involved.
But letting them continue living unchecked cannot be allowed.
Though her Commissioner was Chu Xuefei, this body belonged to someone else.
When the small world initially formed, it hadn’t birthed the soul of this body’s owner, meaning it only manifested a body suitable for Chu Xuefei.
But this world is real now.
There are things that must be done.
