Chapter 156: Liu Yun’s Secret (1)

Meanwhile, after returning to her bedroom, Liu Yun sat on the bed and entered the Multiverse Farmland. Two seconds later, she opened her eyes and found herself standing beside the small pond.

"It’s been more than twelve hours since I planted the Basic Pumpkins. They should be ready to harvest by now."

Rubbing her hands together excitedly, Liu Yun opened the status panel for Farmland Plot 001 and checked the Basic Pumpkins’ status. When she saw that all of them were marked as ’Ready to Harvest’, her eyes lit up.

As usual, before harvesting the crops, Liu Yun checked her Farmer Energy.

[Farmer Energy: 93]

The Crop Harvesting skill consumed 5 Farmer Energy per use. With only 93 Farmer Energy remaining, Liu Yun could harvest just 18 plots at a time.

She tapped the [Crop Harvesting] icon, changed the quantity to 18, and pressed [Confirm]. A second later, four notifications rang in her mind.

Ding!

[Successfully harvested crops from 18 farmland plots. You have consumed 90 Farmer Energy.]

Ding!

[Crop Harvesting proficiency +18]

Ding!

[Farming Experience +90]

Ding!

[Congratulations, Player! You have obtained Basic Pumpkin x47. The crops have been stored in the warehouse.]

With only 3 Farmer Energy remaining, Liu Yun opened her warehouse and saw that she had just one Basic Energy Recovery Potion left. After closing the warehouse, she opened the Multiverse Farmland Store and purchased ten more Basic Energy Recovery Potions, spending 1,000 Multiverse Coins in one go.

Now that she had eleven Basic Energy Recovery Potions, Liu Yun immediately consumed four of them.

Ding!

[Consumed Basic Energy Recovery Potion x4. Obtained 40 Farmer Energy.]

After replenishing her Farmer Energy, Liu Yun tapped the [Crop Harvesting] icon again, changed the quantity to 7, and pressed [Confirm].

Ding!

[Successfully harvested crops from 7 farmland plots. You have consumed 35 Farmer Energy.]

Ding!

[Crop Harvesting proficiency +7]

Ding!

[Farming Experience +35]

Ding!

[Congratulations, Player! You have obtained Basic Pumpkin x21. The crops have been stored in the warehouse.]

Once she finished harvesting, Liu Yun checked her Farmer Energy again. Seeing that only 8 points remained, she closed the blue screen and left the Multiverse Farmland.

Two seconds later, her consciousness returned to her body, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Getting out of bed, she stretched her limbs before heading to the bathroom. Soon, the sound of running water could be heard behind the closed door.

Twenty minutes later, Liu Yun walked out of the bathroom, feeling refreshed.

After drying her hair with a cotton towel, she sat back down on the bed and opened the Multiverse Farmland Warehouse. Seeing the new icon displayed in the tenth slot, she smiled with satisfaction.

"Not bad. I managed to harvest a total of 68 Basic Pumpkins from 25 farmland plots. Based on the size of the Basic Carrots, I wonder how big these Basic Pumpkins are."

Filled with curiosity, Liu Yun decided to take one Basic Pumpkin out of the warehouse.

Thud!

The moment the Basic Pumpkin appeared on the floor in front of her, Liu Yun’s jaw dropped. She rubbed her eyes several times in disbelief before looking at the pumpkin again.

Swallowing hard, she muttered in shock, "Heavens... This Basic Pumpkin is actually bigger than the bathtub!"

While Liu Yun was still staring at the enormous pumpkin in shock, someone knocked on the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

Snapping out of her shock, Liu Yun hurriedly stored the Basic Pumpkin back in the Multiverse Farmland Warehouse. Afterward, she got out of bed and went to open the door.

Seeing Gu Zhenwei standing outside, she asked, "Elder Brother Gu, is dinner ready?"

Gu Zhenwei nodded, then glanced into the bedroom. "I heard something fall just now."

Hearing this, Liu Yun pretended not to know what he was talking about and tilted her head slightly. "What sound? I didn’t hear anything."

Gu Zhenwei glanced around the bedroom for a moment before looking back at Liu Yun. "We should go downstairs now. Brother Xuan and the others have been waiting for us."

"All right."

As Liu Yun closed the door, Gu Zhenwei took one last look into the bedroom. Seeing nothing unusual apart from the furniture, he scratched his head in confusion before heading downstairs.

After dinner, Liu Yun and the others gathered in the living room.

Sitting on the couch, she looked at the others and said, "Brothers, Brother Ru and I found a stall selling crystal cores today."

As she spoke, she took the elemental crystal cores out of her inventory.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Watching the colorful crystal cores appear on the low table, Gu Zhenwei drew a sharp breath. "Heavens! That’s so many crystal cores!"

Lan Zuancheng reluctantly tore his gaze away from the elemental crystal cores and asked, "Younger Sister Liu, how much did you pay for these crystal cores?"

Sitting beside Gu Zhenwei, Ru Jianxiao silently watched Liu Yun, patiently waiting for her answer.

Noticing Ru Jianxiao’s meaningful gaze, Liu Yun fell into deep thought. She couldn’t let anyone discover that she had a system, but there was no reason for her to keep the vegetables to herself, either.

Since the System had hinted that eating more vegetables could awaken their abilities, she would have to reveal the vegetables sooner or later if she wanted to help Qiu Sixun and the others awaken their abilities.

Without abilities, Gu Zhenwei, Qiu Sixun, and Lan Zuancheng would have a much lower chance of surviving the apocalypse. Worse still, they might even become a burden to Ye Xuan, Ru Jianxiao, and Liu Yun herself in an emergency.

After thinking it over for a long moment, Liu Yun finally made up her mind.

She raised her eyes and looked at each of them in turn before speaking solemnly. "Brothers, there’s something I need to tell you."

Seeing her serious expression, everyone else grew serious as well.

Sitting in the main seat, Ye Xuan looked at Liu Yun and asked, "What do you want to tell us?"

Liu Yun took a deep breath and waved her hand. A second later, a Basic Carrot appeared on the low table.

Thud!
