Apocalyptic Farmer

Ding Cheng suddenly woke up from his dream, his body covered in sweat. He had actually encountered Liu Hao poisoning him in his dream. It was real poison, and after he drank it, blood flowed from his seven orifices, turning him into a pool of corpse water.

"Huff, huff..." Ding Cheng panted heavily, greedily inhaling the fresh air.

"That damned Liu Hao, he actually instilled a demon in me! I'll never have peace of mind until he's dead!"

He was at the seventh level of the second tier, but the alien energy within him was somewhat thinner than that of a sixth level of the second tier.

All of this was because Liu Hao prevented him from absorbing the Dao wholeheartedly and also disturbed his Dao heart.

But now he knows that Liu Hao has many talented people under his command, while he himself is all alone, which puts him at a disadvantage.

If a superhuman can't beat you... then what about a fourth-tier zombie?

Ding Cheng had a plan in mind: the enemy of the enemy is his teammate, isn't it?

Thinking of this, Ding Cheng's lips curled up, finally feeling a little relieved. He then took out the remaining three second-tier crystal cores, preparing to break through to the second-tier perfection in one go, and then plan how to become a third-tier ability user. "Liu Hao, our business isn't over yet!"

The man who caused all this was blindfolded and playing "catch the water ghost" with several beautiful women.

"Master, Sister Su Yu is right here~"

Liu Hao was completely absorbed in the laughter of the women, unable to extricate himself. He swam to the left and grabbed Su Yu's waist, but she was slippery and slipped away in an instant. He grabbed to the right and touched the soles of Li Yanan's feet as she swam. The changing sensations on his hands teased his throbbing heart.

A moment later, Liu Hao suddenly exerted his strength, and Su Yinyin was caught off guard and grabbed by Liu Hao. Liu Hao suddenly pulled her into his arms to prevent her from escaping.

"I've got you..." Liu Hao sniffed her fragrance, a confident smile playing on his lips. "Yinyin."

"Mmm." Su Yinyin lowered her head, her face flushed, when she saw that everyone was looking at her.

"One...two, three!" Tian Tian shouted.

"Yinyin is eliminated! Ya Nan and Su Yu are the victors!"

As soon as Tian Tian finished speaking, Liu Hao removed the black bandage from his eyes, restoring his vision. Looking at the shy Yin Yin in his arms, he couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek, which made Su Yin Yin even more shy and blush.

She's never been seen by so many people... This reminds her of that night... Could he still crave the thrill of being 'watched'?

That... isn't impossible.

Seeing this, Liu Hao stopped teasing Su Yinyin, afraid that if he kissed her again, she would get a fever.

"Alright, Su Yu, Instructor Li, get ready to start absorbing the second-tier crystal cores. Also, each squad leader, choose one member."

"Three teams, two per team, will compete to see who can hunt the most zombies. The time limit is from tomorrow morning until 8 pm. Reward: Both members of the winning team will receive a power upgrade once."

Su Yu then asked, "Master, can SSS-level abilities also be upgraded?"

Liu Hao waved for everyone to gather around. "Instructor Li, your ability level isn't high enough. Let me help you improve it."

"Whatever you say." Li Yanan did not object, but wanted to hear Liu Hao's opinion.

"The highest level of superpower isn't SSS, but SSR. SSR-level superpowers are primal superpowers, such as ice attributes. At that level, you will no longer just manipulate ice and snow or create cold currents, but directly wield the fundamental laws of ice. Your power will no longer be limited to ordinary offensive methods. As long as your soul is immortal, the fundamental laws of ice will never dissipate." These were things Liu Hao learned after asking the system, which also served as supplementing the knowledge of the others.

"Of course, if you really don't want to upgrade the grade of your superpower, you can exchange it for the reward of awakening a new superpower."

Liu Hao's words stunned them, leaving them truly speechless.

What does it mean to awaken a new superpower?

Is this something that can be changed so easily, or that one more can be added?

No one questioned Liu Hao, nor did anyone doubt his words.

Because Liu Hao used a new S-class ability, Mirror Image, before even starting the game!

"Let's aim for SSR level first; trying to do too much at once might lead to failure," Su Yu said.

The women nodded. Lin Xier squinted and thought for a long time. She realized that none of the women here were stupid. After getting to know them, she found that everyone was very smart. Moreover, it was through this small competition that she truly learned about the secrets of the farm.

SSR? I'm only SS-rank, so what is the origin of my superpower?

How strong can one become after reaching the SSR level?

Liu Hao added, "Then Tian Tian should choose her teammates first."

Tian Tian looked at Miao Miao, smiled, and pointed to Su Miao Miao, saying, "Miao Miao and I are on the same team."

Su Miaomiao happily ran to Tian Tian's side: "I knew you would choose me."

"Team Two Captain Li Yanan, select your teammates."

Li Yanan actually wanted to choose Lin Qier, since Lin Qier was an SS-level ability user and a second-tier, fourth-level ability user.

Choosing her would significantly increase the win rate, and it wouldn't even prevent you from competing against Tian Tian's team.

"Su Yinyin."

Su Yu was stunned. Li Yanan's ability was A-level, yet she chose an S-level ability user as her teammate instead of an SS-level one.

Didn't she know that Su Yinyin was a support-type ability user?

Even Su Yinyin found it unbelievable when she heard her own name. The first thing that came to her mind was: Why choose me?

However, she didn't ask any questions and slid straight into the pool to Li Yanan's side.

Liu Hao smiled and said, "Then the third group is Su Yu and Lin Xier."

"Remember, a second-order crystal core is worth ten points, and a first-order crystal core is worth one point. Whoever has the higher score will get the opportunity."

"So, Su Yu and Li Yanan, go on your breakthrough today. The rest of you will be slaughtering livestock with me this afternoon. By the way, besides beef, what other meats do you all like to eat?"

Liu Hao still has 1022 portions of organic feed that he hasn't cashed out. If he only raises cattle, he could exchange them for ten adult Wagyu cattle, but that would result in too much beef. Eating beef every day... would get boring.

"Hmm...I want to eat seafood..." Tian Tian said, swallowing hard.

"Master, are you still going to stockpile food? Or should we just let them grow slowly? We just went down to check the underground warehouse, and it can barely hold any more food," Su Yu said.

Liu Hao's eyes lit up immediately. That's right! Why did he keep thinking about chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep? Organic feed is the growth feed for all meat-eating animals. He could build a seafood pond and raise seafood to eat.

Another important point is that when raising seafood and livestock, they can be allowed to grow freely.

The current farm experience mainly focuses on vegetables; as for meat, it's better to eat it yourself.

Anyway, my plan has already been implemented, and this is the farm's first big event.

They will also receive corresponding rewards, so they will definitely hunt zombies like crazy, just to advance their superpowers.

"Sweetie is right. I'll go get some seafood farming equipment right now. Okay, everyone, go home and get on with your own business."

Su Yu and Li Yanan each took ten second-tier crystal cores and went to the room on the second floor to absorb them.

Miao Miao and Tian Tian hadn't had enough fun yet, so they stayed in the pool and refused to leave.

Lin Qier and Su Yinyin changed into the clothes they wore that morning and followed Liu Hao downstairs. Lin Qier wanted to see how Liu Hao planned to build a seafood farming pond on the mountain, while Su Yinyin was called by Liu Hao to help out.

As soon as I got to the first floor, I saw six major uniforms of different sizes and six second-order crystal cores in the living room.

There was also a note next to it.

Liu Hao ignored the major's uniform, picked up the note, glanced at it, and said, "They're gone."

"Yinyin, distribute these clothes to everyone. Mine can just be thrown into the underground warehouse."

Lin Qier paused for a moment, then politely said to Su Yinyin, "Let's put mine in the underground storage first."

"Mmm." Su Yinyin's eyes remained fixed on the major's uniform.

Before the apocalypse, she had seen female officers marching under the national flag. They were so dazzling. However, she had not yet graduated from university, so she did not join the army. Even if she had joined the female army, she would not have been able to become a major at this age!

She picked up everyone's military uniforms, which had numbers on them. By looking at the numbers and the information on the slips of paper on the uniforms, she could assign the corresponding uniforms to the appropriate people.

After Su Yinyin left, Lin Qier asked:

"Why do you seem so indifferent? This is an honor in the military!"
