nAn Ran looked through the peephole.
nThe old granny was in pain but there was a smile on her face. There was no fear in her expressions.
n
n
n
nHer body fell onto the man.
nShe stopped moving.
nThe man pushed her body away and went into her house.
nHe came out in a short while.
n
n
nThis time, An Ran could see the man’s face clearly.
nHis face was covered in scratches. She could tell that he was a young man. His tongue was sticking out from his mouth and there was red liquid dripping all over. It could be blood, but An Ran was not too sure about that. His eyes were also cloudy.
nSuddenly, he turned around and walked in her direction…
nAn Ran cried out in surprise and quickly retreated.
n
n
nHe Xin held and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
n“What’s wrong with this world? Why did this happen? The man outside… it was as if he’s a zombie from a movie!”
nAn Ran had never seen such a scene so clearly. She had only ever watched it on the news.
n“Is he even human? The experts said that he can be cured, right? Can we send him to a hospital?”
nAn Ran looked at He Xin, she was panicking and grabbed his arms.
nHe Xin kept stroking her head, trying to comfort her.
n
n
n“Don’t worry. It’s fine as long as we don’t go out.”
n‘Bang!’
n‘Bang! Bang! Bang!’
nFour times!
nSomeone was hitting the door.
nAn Ran was dumbfounded while He Xin was stunned.
nHe did not expect the man to have so much strength.
nThe man was no longer a human being.
n
n
nAs An Ran said, he was a zombie.
nHe Xin carefully stood up with An Ran and led her into a room to hide.
nHe tried his best to remain calm even with the loud noise.
n“Honey, do you trust me?”
n“What do you mean?”
nAn Ran’s voice was trembling.
n“Trust me, I will protect you.”
n“I do trust you.”
nAn Ran answered firmly.
nThis greatly encouraged He Xin. He began looking around for something that could be used as a weapon.
nSuddenly, a heart-wrenching cry could be heard from the outside.
n“Help!!! Ahhhhh, is anyone there?! Sob, save me…”
nThe cries grew louder and louder.
n
n
nBut then, everything went silent abruptly.
n“Is that person dead…?”
nHe Xin forced a smile and said, “She’ll turn into a zombie. She’s not dead.”
nAn Ran was troubled.
n‘What was the difference between this and death?’
nAfter blocking the door with heavy furniture, He Xin finally let out a sigh of relief.
n…
nMeanwhile, Li Ran entered the space again. The vegetables she planted before had matured. They were cabbages.
nShe received a message from the system.
n Congratulations, newbie mission completed.
nSuddenly, the system crashed.
nGlitched interfaces began to appear in front of Li Ran.
nShe was astonished.
nWhat was happening to the space system?
nMore missions appeared and Li Ran was eager to complete them.
nThere were other missions such as planting peanut seeds and feeding the animals.
nThen, there were blank missions, meaning that she has not unlocked them yet.
nLi Ran was very curious. She tried to click on everything in hopes of gaining more information.
nUsually, there would be a daily mission that refreshes every day. After completing it, she would receive a reward.
nFor instance, her previous mission was to learn how to check if the vegetables she had planted were ripened.
nAfter completing the mission, she would be rewarded with experience points and some pink stones.
nPink stones basically worked like money. They could be traded for other items in the system’s mall.
nShe had managed to collect a hundred pink stones.
nWithout hesitation, Li Ran bought some peanut seeds. The purchase was successful.
nA bag of seeds then appeared out of thin air! It was an extraordinary scene!
nLi Ran buried the seeds neatly into the soil. A bag of seeds was just enough to fill up a plot of land. After she was done, she clapped her hands, picked up a bucket, and went to fetch some water.
nShe needed to fertilize the seeds and managed to get that done swiftly.
nSubsequently, she opened the system’s panel and searched through the pile of small icons. There had to be something that could assist her even further!
nShe finally found something helpful. It was a search bar.
nIf she wanted, she could search for information on it.
nLi Ran was in awe. All kinds of strange things had happened.
n How do I know when fruits and vegetables are ripe?
nAfter a brief moment…
n Enter the wooden house and head to the study. Press on the second button that’s located on the right. A monitoring panel to check the situation of the farm will appear.
nThe words in front of her then gradually disappeared.
