Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 285: The aircraft carrier silently harvests mustard seeds, and the Ice Age prepares for the future

In the northern foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a mountain lion resting on a rock shelf is reflected in the night vision pupil. The 1.5-meter-tall giant suddenly wakes up, but is pierced through the body by a rock spike that sprang out from the ground.

Li Xiang flew by wearing the Giant Whale Holy Armor, and the system reward had already arrived.

This is a seventeenth-level mutant saber-tooth mountain lion with extraordinary potential. Of course, at this moment, the end of the world has not yet arrived, and it is still an ordinary wild beast.

Li Xiang obtained 1700 achievement points, three eighth-level elixirs "Storm Cores", and a fifteenth-level small ring "Hurricane Brass Knuckles".

This extraordinary spiritual ring was blue-green all over, and flickered with faint light. Li Xiang tried it out and found that when he swung it, it could create a small tornado with hundreds of wind blades.

When the Montana grizzly bear's paw smashed the century-old spruce, the frosty sword energy had already pierced its heart. Li Xiang obtained 1800 achievement points and three ninth-level elixirs "Earth Bear Bile", which is a miraculous healing medicine. After taking it, the body's regeneration ability is increased by 200%.

In addition, there is a set of sixteenth-level "Rock Soul Heavy Armor", which resonates with the earth when worn and can absorb 30% of physical impact.

However, Li Xiang’s vision has now become higher, and he doesn’t look favorably upon items below the Saint level. He can only keep them for future grants to meritorious officials.

Deep in the Louisiana swamp, a five-meter-long alligator king bit Li Xiang and tried to perform a death roll!

Then, the swamp king was dumbfounded. He failed to roll over and was instead picked up by Li Xiang and thrown around like a rag doll.

This ferocious crocodile was not easy to play with and was knocked dizzy by Li Xiang in just a few moves.

Immediately, Li Xiang gained 1600 achievement points and three eighth-level spiritual medicines called "Swamp Spirit Roots", which are auxiliary spiritual medicines that can cure all kinds of poisons and enhance underwater perception.

There is also a set of level 14 "Swamp Lord Scale Armor" that provides underwater breathing ability and immunity to corrosive liquids.

On the Wyoming grasslands, a herd of sturdy bison were grazing leisurely. Li Xiang grabbed with both hands, and his earth-based supernatural power formed a circular cage.

The herd of bison rammed the prison walls, causing the ground to suddenly collapse. When the dust settled, only deep pits of hoof prints remained on the grassland.

There are hundreds of bison in this group, which are good meat. There are also three with extraordinary potential. Li Xiang got 2600 achievement points, nine sixth-level elixirs "Brute Force Fruit", which can briefly burst out double strength after taking; two pairs of extraordinary items "Earth-shaking Boots", which can trigger local earthquake waves when stepped on.

In addition, ferocious beasts such as the North American gray wolf, jaguar, grizzly bear, bald eagle, etc., cannot escape Li Xiang's clutches once they are encountered.

Li Xiang ravaged the American continent, appearing and disappearing like a ghost. At a top speed of Mach 11, he went from one state to another as if he was in an empty space, and reaped a rich harvest.

There are eight or nine thousand elixirs and nearly a hundred extraordinary items.

In addition, he also found several bat caves, which he would not miss. His achievement point account had exceeded the three million mark, and he was thinking about upgrading several other power runes.

While clearing out wild animals, Li Xiang also did not spare American firearms and other hot weapons, and they were doing both at the same time, having a lot of fun.

On the seventh floor underground of the Pentagon, all surveillance cameras suddenly exploded. Li Xiang was walking in a maze of guns. The GBU-9 laser-guided bombs mounted on the MQ-12 Reaper drone disappeared in rows.

Boston Dynamics' Spot robot dog, along with the 6.5mm Creedmoor rifle loaded on its back, also went missing in batches.

At the Newport News Dockyard, the electromagnetic catapult track glowed coldly in the moonlight. Li Xiang appeared on the front side of the Ford-class aircraft carrier deck, and the hum of the nuclear reactor on the island pierced the night sky. This war machine, which is 337 meters long, 78 meters wide, and cost $140 billion to build, is about to be installed.

其搭载的A1B型核反应堆较“尼米兹级“使用的A4W型反应堆热效率提高约30%，同时体积减少约25%，重量减轻近20%。

The nuclear power system can provide more than 10 horsepower of continuous power. More importantly, it can extend the nuclear fuel replenishment cycle to 25 years, reducing the maintenance cost and non-combat readiness time of the aircraft carrier.

Energy experts have explained in the media that this is a highly integrated ship energy management system. In maximum power output mode, its power generation capacity is sufficient to meet the electricity needs of a small city with a population of 7.

Li Xiang's underground city is designed to accommodate about 10 people. If two ships are built and hidden deep underground, there is no need to worry about electricity. This is much more convenient than building a power plant.

As for the electronic equipment and various software programs inside, including backdoors, positioning, etc., they were all left to Jiang Caier to invade and take complete control.

Anyway, at the end of the world, the sea is frozen and the ships can no longer be used.

The landing of ships is the general trend.

This giant ship weighs 12 tons. Li Xiang's current strength is only 22 kilograms. He can't lift it at all, not even with the newly acquired "brute force fruit". However, he doesn't need to carry it. This ship is drifting in the port. Li Xiang opens the opening of the other-dimensional warehouse large enough, and with just that, the giant ship disappears.

The system's extra-dimensional warehouse is 512 meters long on a side and is in the shape of a cube, with plenty of space to accommodate everything.

In addition, boxes of MK15 Phalanx shells and F-35C engine components were transferred to the spare parts area.

When the alarm sounded throughout the naval port, the mysterious Armor Warrior flashed and arrived on the high seas, sprinting along the sea surface at a speed of Mach 11, and arrived 1800 kilometers away in eight minutes.

Immediately it dived into the sea, and the Giant Whale Holy Armor transformed into a "Sea-Walking Spirit Whale Boat", which slid leisurely in the deep sea.

Americans are really crazy.

New York Times headline:
"A mysterious force swept across North America: agricultural products evaporated overnight, and aircraft carriers mysteriously disappeared!"

The U.S. Department of Agriculture confirmed that several agricultural states in the Midwest suffered large-scale theft of agricultural products, with total losses exceeding 20 million tons. The specific data has not yet been fully released.

Rare crops such as Michigan wild blueberries and Wisconsin American ginseng were also looted.

The Pentagon also revealed that a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier (337 meters long, with the power system already deployed) under construction at the Newport News Shipyard disappeared without a trace, and surveillance only captured "space ripples." The FBI characterized the incident as a "national-level paranormal crime" and offered a reward of tens of millions of dollars for clues.

The think tank suspects that it was China who did it, but has no evidence.

Now that the Eastern powers are rising, we can no longer make arbitrary judgments without solid evidence. A reporter asked a question at the Chinese press conference, but was strongly retorted.

CNN special report: "This is a double catastrophe for wildlife and the military-industrial complex."

Wild animals such as the Yellowstone Park grizzly bear, the Rocky Mountain cougar, and the Florida alligator were hunted with precision, and some of their carcasses showed signs of being pierced by rock spikes.

Because some animal meat was not very tasty and the fur was just average, Li Xiang did not take all of it.

For example, only the bear's gallbladder was dug out and its paws were chopped off.

Even more shocking is that the arsenals of several military factories were raided, and the GBU-9 laser-guided bombs mounted on the MQ-12 drones, the Boston Dynamics robot dogs, and the 6.5mm Creedmoor rifles equipped with them were missing. Military experts said: "This is a humiliating breakthrough in the North American defense system."

The Washington Post editorial: "What are we facing? Superpowers or alien technology? Where are our superheroes?"

The U.S. Department of Defense held an emergency hearing, demanding the restart of the budget for the "Supernatural Defense Program", but was criticized by some lawmakers as "diverting people's anger over agricultural losses."

【Hot discussion among netizens around the world】

American Reddit forum. "Agricultural power? Now we are a 'stolen power'!"

A netizen cried: "My dad's farm surveillance camera captured wheat surging and disappearing like waves... Is this a joint robbery of "Inception" and "Avengers"?"

A Chinese netizen commented: "I suggest that the Federal Ministry of Agriculture change its career and write fantasy novels, titled "My family's wheat was confiscated by the land god."

Indian netizens commented: "Haha, we have already said that they are the messengers of our Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati."

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to them.

Li Xiang thought, it's not right for this white elephant to take the blame. But his attitude is quite good, and he is willing to take the blame. But no one is willing to believe them.

A proud and superior New Delhi netizen posted a photo of a king cobra and a Bengal tiger: "North American beasts are too weak, our snakes are ten against one! Our tigers beat up mountain lions and jaguars."

A Mumbai netizen added: "I suggest that the US introduce Indian bison. After all, even the 'Bull Demon King' can be killed with one punch. Your lions and tigers are not good enough."

Trending posts on Twitter in Europe.

"European Parliament Urgent Proposal: Establishment of an 'Anti-Superpower Alliance'."

To be precise, it is an anti-China alliance.

Berlin netizens mocked: "The theme of the next NATO summit - how to defend against teleporting groundhogs?"

A Paris art blogger photoshopped a picture showing that an "anti-space tearing device" was installed on the top of the Eiffel Tower, with the caption "French technology, specially designed to cure all kinds of dissatisfaction."

Japanese 2ch Forum
“The truth is revealed: the US aircraft carrier has been made into sushi!”

The second-year netizen deduced: "Nuclear power = unlimited energy. The psychic stole the ship in order to open a conveyor belt sushi restaurant in the underground city! The length of the ship is exactly the size of a standard sushi table. The evidence is irrefutable!"

The tech geek retorted: "Obviously it's to charge the Gundam!"

However, this really made them guess almost right. Li Xiang certainly did not open a sushi restaurant, but he was really looking for a stable and convenient energy source.

Isn't it said that people who live a simple life understand Chinese people best?

Korea Naver Hot List
"Shock! The mysterious man is Korean!"

Seoul netizens listed "evidence": "Only the land of the Republic of Korea, the first in the universe, can breed earth-related supernatural powers! The American black soil was stolen from the Han River mud during the Korean War!"

A Busan food blogger took advantage of the trend: "The stolen wheat must be used to make authentic Korean cold noodles!"

Latin American netizens play memes
Brazilian netizens made a short video: the Jesus statue in Rio is holding an aircraft carrier as a surfboard, with the BGM "Despacito" and the tag #God's Wrath 2.0#.

Mexican netizens complained: "Next time you steal the White House, remember to repair the wall. The special trust will thank you!"

Dubai tycoon tweeted: "A reward of 10 tons of gold for the contact information of a person with superpowers. I want to turn an aircraft carrier into a mosque on the sea."

Saudi Arabian netizens forwarded: "Upstairs, Allah said that the aircraft carrier is too big and Mecca can't put it in it."

A netizen from Toronto, Canada, mocked himself: "Thank goodness Americans, they only steal agricultural products! If they come to Canada, they probably won't even leave snow and maple syrup!"

Vancouver environmentalists call for: "Please ask the supernatural to steal Alberta's oil sands and save the polar bears!"

A pragmatic Kenyan netizen left a message: "Are you selling crocodile skins? The price is negotiable, and the larger the quantity, the better."

South Africa's Minister of Agriculture took advantage of the popularity: "Our beef tastes much better than North American bison. We support group buying by superpowers, and free shipping to sub-Saharan Africa!"

Someone replied: "Don't show off, that person is famous for buying for free, be careful he might rob you, you will cry when that happens."

"Eh~, free purchase? That's the American way!"

……

The outside world was in an uproar and the entire network was in an uproar. After all, even the great world leader and beacon country was looted, the entire country was bought for zero dollars, and the country's most important weapon that cost 140 billion US dollars to build was lost. There was no telling how many people were watching the fun.

At this time, Li Xiang was enjoying the tenderness of the "Yukio no Yado" private bathhouse by the Mount Fuji.

The cherry blossoms were like clouds and mist, and twelve bronze wind chimes swayed gently on the eaves, turning the falling petals into dancing pink snow. Li Xiang lay on his back on the cobblestone edge of the open-air hot spring pool, and the steaming sulfur vapor condensed into crystal dew on his strong chest muscles.

Chiba Yukio knelt on the cypress terrace shaded by weeping cherry trees, dipped her slender fingertips in cherry essential oil, and massaged along the muscles of Li Xiang's shoulder blades.

The hem of the shikigami Akahana's scarlet kimono was immersed in the hot spring, and the slight waving of her Karma Fire folding fan startled several glass swallowtail butterflies that were resting on the fan.

Li Xiang had been busy and tired for so many days, so he came here to take a short break, thinking about the poems in his mind.

There's no way, I've been fascinated by it recently and want to show off my poetic talent.

He pondered for a long time, consuming countless brain cells, before he wrote this poem "A Glimpse of North America":
"The black soil is surging with the art of escaping the earth, and the waves of Kansas are rolling up a huge amount of gold. Winter wheat is returning to the foreign warehouse like a tide, and Dulun is like snow covering the mysterious gate. The king of ginseng has been breathing for thirty years, and amber has been shining for sixty years. The aircraft carrier silently harvests mustard seeds, and the ice age is storing the universe."

Li Xiang was particularly satisfied with the last two sentences. One was about collecting strategic materials into warehouses, and the other was about pointing out the profound meaning of the end-of-the-world layout. The whole poem had a sense of connecting heaven and earth and was grand in spirit.

Of course, this is just his self-perception, and it’s just average.

"Master is truly extremely talented. Xuexue is impressed. Master, please look—"

Chiba Xuexi suddenly leaned over and pointed towards the poolside with a sweet breath.

The bamboo tube startled the deer and knocked on the rock wall, and the cherry petals that fell off condensed into the poem "Glimpses of North America" in mid-air.

The red Prajna folding fan glowed purple, coating each ink character with flowing mirage light.

"Xue Xu must copy it down, frame it in his bedroom, and recite it every night before going to bed."

Oh my god, Li Xiang is so drunk from all the flattery.

"If the master is interested, you can also write poems on Xuexu's body." Chiba Xuexu lowered her eyes, shyly.
