Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“The Space Farm program has been activated. Connecting to the Internet. The network connection is successful. The program’s operations are normal. Host discovered. Checking the host’s situation. Host is in a normal state. Bound to the host.
Your current level is Level 1. The system rewards are 500 gold coins and six bags of pasture seeds. Every bag of seeds can be planted on one acre of land. You already have a piece of cultivated land. It has an area of ten acres and is Level 0. You can buy the seeds you need in the shop and sell the harvested fruits in the shop in exchange for gold coins. Because of the network failure, you can enter the farm freely. You can only contact the host and not any friends. Sorry for the inconvenience.”
Zhao Hai stood there foolishly. He felt like he was in a dream. Everything seemed so unreal.
But he had indeed heard the voice just now. If it were on Earth, Zhao Hai would not believe this. At most, he would think that someone was pranking him, but it was different here. He had even transmigrated. What else could he not believe?
Zhao Hai immediately said in his mind, “Enter the farm.”
Just as he finished speaking, he felt a blur in front of his eyes. He was no longer in his castle, but in a clearing. The clearing was huge, about ten acres, and it was all plowed. There was a brand-new shovel beside the field, along with a small spring with a bucket beside it. There was a small straw hut. To the left of the hut was a straw kennel. Under the window of the straw hut were two bottles. One had pesticide written on it, and the other had herbicide written on it. Beside the two bottles was a basket with ‘collect’ written on it. To the right of the straw hut was an even smaller straw hut with a plate that said ‘warehouse’ hanging from it. Other than these, there was a thick fog all around. Nothing could be seen beyond this straw hut and the clearing.
Zhao Hai was too familiar with this situation. Other than the fact that there was no background story, this was the game he was most familiar with, the farm game!
Different from other otakus who preferred to game, Zhao Hai preferred to read and write novels. Although he only received a small amount of royalties, he enjoyed it and never played games.
Later on, someone introduced Zhao Hai to a farm game. This game did not require much time, and it was easy to play, so Zhao Hai kept playing. Before he transmigrated, his farm level was already level 27. Although it was not too high, he had finished farming his land and even opened a ranch.
The people who opened the farm game in the beginning knew that the system would give you land for free. There was also the straw hut. The scene now was the same as the scene in the game. The difference was that Zhao Hai saw it through the computer, but now, he was personally in this space.
Zhao Hai looked at all of this in a daze. He really did not know what to do. He sat down and grabbed a handful of soil.
But just as he grabbed the soil, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind. “Space Land, Level 1. It has been cultivated. Crops planted on it have ten times faster growth speed. You can bring it out of the Space Farm and use it to improve the land outside.”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment before he was delighted. He knew too little about this . Now was the time to get more information about it. He immediately ran to the spring and touched the spring water. As expected, the notification sounded again. “Space Spring Water, Level 1, can be drunk. It can improve the human body. It can be used to irrigate the land and accelerate the maturing period of crops by ten times. It can be brought outside the Space Farm and can be used to improve the land outside.”
Zhao Hai was already dizzy from this sudden fortune. He giggled foolishly, forgetting to take his hand out of the spring.
After a while, Zhao Hai stood up and laughed. “God, I didn’t expect you to be so generous to me. Hahaha, good, good, this is too good.”
Zhao Hai knew very well that since he had come to the Ark Continent and become a person who could not cultivate any magic or battle aura, his life was destined to be ordinary. It was impossible for him to take revenge for Adam, but with this Space Farm, it was different. Even if he could not take revenge, he could let the Buda family survive and become prosperous. This was also a form of revenge for Adam.
It took Zhao Hai a while to calm down. He first ran to the shovel beside the field. He wanted to see if this shovel was as magical as in the game.
When his hand touched the shovel, the notification sounded again. “Shovel, Tool, Level 1. It can automatically dig the ground. Work time, ten acres/day. It can be brought out of the Space Farm and used.”
Zhao Hai smiled again. Then, he walked to the water bucket and touched it. The notification sounded again. “Water bucket, Tool, Level 1. It can automatically irrigate the land. Work time, 10 acres/day. It can be brought out of the Space Farm and used.”
“Pesticide, farm chemical, Level 1. It’s poisonous. It can automatically kill pests. Do not eat it. It can be taken out of the Space Farm. The quantity is infinite.”
“Herbicide, farm chemical, Level 1. It’s poisonous. It can automatically kill weeds. Do not eat it. It can be taken out of the Space Farm. The quantity is infinite.”
“Basket, tool, level 1. It can automatically collect fruits and vegetables. Work time, 10 acres/day. You can bring it out of the Space Farm to use. The gains will be automatically placed in the warehouse.”
After understanding everything outside, Zhao Hai already understood that this place was similar to the farm game, but it was not quite the same. However, this place was more suitable for him.
Zhao Hai walked into the straw hut excitedly. This straw hut was not big, but there were all the necessary things. There was a wooden bed with dried grass as the mattress, a table, four chairs, a cabinet, a stove, and a set of cutlery. Most importantly, there was a computer-like thing beside the bed, but there was only a monitor.
Zhao Hai quickly walked to the monitor and realized that it was lit up. There were only two icons on it. One of them said shop, and the other said farm introduction.
Zhao Hai quickly opened the farm introduction. He really wanted to know why he had such a farm and what was up with it.
As soon as Zhao Hai’s hand touched the icon of the farm introduction, the icon immediately turned into a white light and shot into his head. A lot of information suddenly appeared in Zhao Hai’s mind. It took him a while to digest this information and guess how this farm came about.
Before Zhao Hai came to this world, he was playing the farm game on his computer. However, for some reason, he suddenly came here, and the farm game followed him here. The farm game had experienced many changes, but it had its original functions. Moreover, its features had become even stronger. This farm had already become a system, and this system was tied to Zhao Hai.
In other words, although Zhao Hai could not connect to the computers on Earth through this farm, he could use all the functions of this farm, including the shop. He could use gold coins to buy things in the shop or sell his things to the shop. He could bring the things on the farm outside or bring the outside things in. Everything was based on his will.
However, the farm was only level one, and there were many functions that could not be used. If it reached a high level, he could open a ranch and expand his land. There was no limit to how much he could expand. He could level up the farm slowly by gaining experience points from planting, watering, or killing pests. He could also bring in some things from outside to Space Farm. The Space Farm could evolve through these things and level up. In other words, Zhao Hai could bring in some specialties of the Ark Continent to increase the number of items or species in the Space Farm to level it up. In short, Zhao Hai had obtained a heaven-defying cheat.
Zhao Hai only wanted to laugh loudly. With this heaven-defying cheat, it was not difficult for him to prosper. Moreover, it was not impossible to take revenge for Adam and the Buda family. A bold plan formed in Zhao Hai’s mind.
He could use Space soil and spring water to improve the land in the Black Soil Wilderness. This would be equivalent to having an incomparably huge farm. As long as this place developed, he could recruit more people and become a powerhouse. At that time, he could take revenge for the Buda family…
After a while, Zhao Hai came back to his senses and shook his head gently, laughing at himself for thinking too far ahead. It was not the time to think about it yet. It was better to understand this place first.
While thinking, Zhao Hai casually opened the icon with the shop written on it. The notification sounded immediately. “Welcome to the Space Shop. What do you want to buy?”
Zhao Hai looked at the screen. There were pictures of some crops on Earth. Below the pictures were the prices and levels. Zhao Hai knew that this was like in the game. He stopped looking and closed the shop page before looking around.
In the end, he walked to the cabinet. He believed that this cabinet was definitely not a decoration, but he was disappointed. He touched the cabinet, but there was no notification. Zhao Hai was stunned. He opened the cabinet and found three things inside. A cloth bag, a short cane with a worm-like handle, and a short cane with a grass-like handle. Seeing these, Zhao Hai was almost sure of what their purposes were.
He picked up the cloth bag first. As expected, the notification sounded again. “Money bag, it can hold gold coins. There is no limit to the number of gold coins. There are 500 gold coins inside. Because your level is too low, the gold coins can’t be taken out of the Space Farm.”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment before he was delighted. Although the notification was short, he still understood many things. This money bag was actually like an interspatial bag, but it seemed to be able to only hold gold coins. However, this was not what Zhao Hai paid attention to. What he noticed was the last sentence. Because his level was low, the gold coins could not be taken out of the Space Farm. Did that mean that when his level was high, he could bring these gold coins outside? If that was true, then it would be too good.
