nChapter 304: Let Me Try

nThe scorching light was familiar.

nIt looked a little like… the Blazing Sun Heavenly King?

n

n

nThe huge tsunami quickly disintegrated.

nEven the dark sky began to clear.

nBefore long, the rain gradually decreased.

n“That’s a Heavenly King!” A student was extremely excited.

n

n

n“Too strong! Although I can’t see the exact situation, I can imagine that scene from afar.”

n“The Heavenly Kings in our war zone are all super powerful! I wonder which Heavenly King attacked just now?”

n“It doesn’t seem to be from our continent…”

nThe students discussed.

n

n

n“The rain has stopped. Let’s go and take a look.”

nShen Mingluan said, “Let’s go to the nearby military base to report. There are quite a few students coming to help. They’ll be in charge of the dispatch.”

nAlong the way, they also encountered a few batches of university students from other continents.

nThe military base in Seaside City was not far.

nHowever, the storm had just passed. The ground was filled with flood currents and was very dangerous.

nWhen everyone arrived at the military base in Seaside City, they discovered that it had already been drowned.

n

n

nThey could only see thick walls more than a hundred meters tall being scattered.

n“This should be the wall carved from the ten-thousand-year soul skill, Divine Rock Barrier. It’s probably resisting the flood after the tsunami. From the looks of it, it should have collapsed.”

nWang Che glanced at it, “The military base here has probably moved temporarily. There’s a high chance that it’s in Seaside City. Seaside City is surrounded by sea rivers and built on an island. Most of the nearby paddy fields have been drowned. The terrain is very obvious.”

n“Other than that place, there’s nowhere else to go. They should be resisting the flood caused by the tsunami in the city.”

nEveryone immediately flew to Seaside City.

nFrom afar, Seaside City did not feel anything.

nWhen they got closer, they discovered that the city was surrounded by a torrent dozens of meters tall.

nAfter the rain, the torrent began to decrease. Countless thick walls made of rocks stood around the city.

n

n

nWater-type soul pets with glowing bodies floated in the air, reducing the impact of the monstrous flood and protecting the city.

nThose city walls should have been used by rock or ground-type soul pets.

nThere should be no danger in the city.

nThose water attribute soul pets were probably tired and some began to fall from the sky.

nThen, another soul pet went up.

nContract Soul Masters stood at the front and used their martial souls to guide the flood around the city.

nThe defense built by the Soul Guiding Diagram inside the city wall should have been destroyed. However, the Contract Soul Master’s power was still present and could still easily resist the current flood.

nSeeing this scene, the students were very shocked.

nThe situation in Seaside City should be considered good.

nIt was unlike the previous few cities that were drowned.

nAfter waiting for a while, the flood subsided slightly and the group rushed into the city.

nThe streets of the city were filled with water. The facilities in the city, such as the maglev train, had been paralyzed.

nFortunately, most of them were fine and were concentrated in houses or squares with high terrain.

n

n

nSoon, everyone found a soldier.

n“Are you students from the North River Continent?”

nThe soldier’s military uniform was already wrinkled from soaking in the water, and his face was a little pale.

nHowever, he was very happy to see Wang Che, Shen Mingluan, and the others.

nThe soldier immediately reported to the officer.

nA tired middle-aged man walked over and looked at Wang Che and the others.

n“You’re from the Forest Academy’s agriculture major, right? Professor Yun from your school told me that we thought you would return after seeing this situation on the way. We didn’t expect you to come anyway!”

n“My surname is Hong. You can call me Officer Hong.”

nThe middle-aged man smiled and looked at everyone.

n“If there’s anything you need our help with, please tell us,” Shen Mingluan said directly.

n“Alright!” Officer Hong did not waste his breath. “You came at the right time. Because the nearby paddy fields were drowned, the flood caused by the tsunami was too huge, scattering many of the facilities in the city. There was originally a specialized food storage base in the city, but it was also corroded by the seawater.”

n“We barely protected a portion of the stored food and took out a portion. Most of the rest were contaminated by seawater.”

n“The composition of this seawater is very complicated. Not only can it pollute the paddy fields, but many crops will quickly rot once touched. The food soaked in it is very harmful to ordinary people.”

n“The food in the city is rather scarce. The other cities near Seaside City were directly drowned by the first tsunami. As it’s the second batch, it will take a day to gather and send the resources from the nearest city.”

n“Your agriculture major is best at cultivating crops. I wonder if you can urgently accelerate the growth of some simple crops for consumption.”

n“We just need to last for half a day.”

n“On our side, in the northeast corner of the city where the terrain is relatively high, some agricultural soul masters in the city have temporarily built an indoor plantation base. These days, they’ve been accelerating the ripening of crops to help us replenish a large number of resources.”

n“They can provide for the normal operation of the city.”

nOfficer Hong explained briefly.

n“No problem!” Shen Mingluan and the students nodded.

nThis was why they were here.

nThey brought many crop seeds over.

nThere was no food in the spatial soul device because they directly stored seeds.

nTo them, spatial soul devices could not contain too much food.

nHowever, it could store many seeds.

nOnly the officials could provide large-scale resources.

nEspecially in a city like this, the resources needed to encounter a disaster were simply astronomical.

n“Then we’ll have to trouble you.”

nOfficer Hong said, “It should be much better tomorrow… I’ll send someone to bring you there.”

nWith that, he called a soldier and brought Wang Che and the others to the temporary indoor plantation in the northeast corner.

nThis was built by the agricultural soul masters in the city.

nThere were naturally all kinds of soul masters in a city.

nAgricultural soul masters were indispensable.

nThere were official agricultural soul masters in several departments in ordinary cities.

nEven if they encountered a natural disaster, Contract Soul Masters could be self-sufficient in the city and maintain the operation of the city for a long time.

nHowever, the super tsunami this time came too suddenly.

nThey arrived at the indoor plantation base. This indoor plantation was rather huge, covering thousands of acres.

nIt should be the highest place on this island.

nThere was a strong light in the air. Part of it was lightning-type soul pets operating mechanical lighting.

nPart of it was a source of light for some fire soul pets.

nWater-type soul pets that weren’t considered powerful watered the channels.

nEven so, the base was very wide.

nThere were actually many people. Wang Che also saw many students from other colleges.

nThere were even students from the North River Academy’s agriculture major.

nAll of them displayed their abilities and used soul skills to mature the crops on the ground.

nSome more powerful agricultural soul masters were urging their soul plants to mature.

nThese soul plants were mainly used to make various medicines to restore soul power, physical strength, and so on.

nIt was to provide for the Contract Soul Masters guarding the city outside.

nIt was enough as long as the students could accelerate the growth of ordinary crops.

nHowever, Wang Che felt that it did not look too optimistic…

n“I haven’t seen such a tsunami in many years… It’s really exaggerated to be so flooded. In two days, the entire war zone should know… The Chaotic Sea Continent has experienced many tsunamis in the past few years. This should be the strongest one in nearly a hundred years.”

nA student sighed, “That’s too exaggerated.”

n“Even three Heavenly Kings were mobilized! How can it not be exaggerated? Didn’t you see the tsunami just now… I estimate that the situation has only temporarily stabilized. Looking at the situation, I wonder how long it will last.”

n“I saw just now that there are many sea beasts in those currents. The soldiers outside not only have to resist the currents, but some powerful sea beasts are also very troublesome to deal with.”

n“Let’s cut the crap and begin! So much of the city has been drowned, and there’s a shortage of food! My Chestnut Rat has recently learned a move called Brutal Growth. It’s a little rusty, so let’s take this opportunity to train. It’ll barely contribute.”

n“I brought dozens of bags of grain seeds! I can use them now!”

n…

nAn agricultural soul master who did not know how to accelerate growth was not a qualified agricultural soul master.

nSoon, the students began to move.

nWang Che did not move. Instead, he frowned at the soil.

nHe walked to the plantation base, grabbed a handful of soil, and swept it with his divine sense.

n“The soil’s fertility is weak. It was temporarily built as a planting base. The soil of the paddy field that should have been polluted by the seawater has been purified. Although it has purified the impurities in the seawater, the fertility has mostly decreased.”

n“The fertilizer is so weak. It’s probably not easy for students to mature crops.”

nAs expected.

nMany students excitedly began to plant the soil.

nHowever, soon, they discovered that ordinary crops that could usually mature in ten minutes had only sprouted a young seedling after half an hour. They stopped one by one and were immediately stunned.

nAs third and fourth-year students, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

n“You’re from the Forest Academy? Are you stupid?”

nAt this moment, a group of students walked over. The man in the lead said helplessly, “This soil is almost useless. It’s several times harder to accelerate the ripening than the crops planted in the farmland given by the school.”

n“We were sent by the North River Academy three hours earlier than you. Now, we’ve barely matured the first batch of Scholar Fragrance Beans. We’ve consumed a lot of soul power. Due to the tsunami, the soul power concentration in the vicinity is extremely low. It takes a long time to automatically recover.”

n“Fortunately, we have enough soul power replenishment medicine.”

n“But it’s estimated that we can only mature about three batches of Scholar Fragrance Beans.”

n“The efficiency is low. Do you have anyone who can accelerate the growth? If there’s someone who’s more powerful, let the students who can accelerate the growth. It’s best if they can accelerate a batch in half an hour.”

n“We can directly provide potions to replenish soul power. This way, we can save resources and increase efficiency.”

n“It can also complete the mission given by Officer Hong.”

nWith that, the man sighed.

nShen Mingluan stood up and frowned.

nShe naturally discovered this problem so she looked at the other students.

nThe students shook their heads, indicating that they could not do it.

nJust as Shen Mingluan shook her head, at this moment, Wang Che stood up and said, “Let me try.”

n
