I Live on the Land in Global Games-Chapter 49 - 48 Meteor Returns

An anomaly might occur today; it was better to be safe.

Luckily, the daily income from her territory could completely sustain the consumption.

Mu Ying quickly changed into her robe and headed out with Yuan Gungun.

The inside of the territory had changed dramatically from before the rain.

The Asparagus Seeds she had scattered the day before yesterday had all grown, with green leaves covering the entire territory, and buds were already forming on the newly emerged clusters of flowers.

Among the asparagus patches, there were also some small vegetable gardens enclosed by dead branches.

Inside grew all sorts of strange fruits and vegetables: glowing cucumbers, tomato trees, explosive leeks, and rope-circle beans… Each one was fresh and pleasing to the eye.

Mu Ying casually picked two large tomatoes, wiped them with her sleeve, threw one to Yuan Gungun, and bit into the other herself.

The tart and sweet juice filled her mouth; just one tomato almost made her feel full.

As she walked, she observed the trees in her territory.

In the past few days, they had grown significantly, as if they had been on steroids, each one requiring two people to encircle.

They were in exceptionally good condition.

As a result, when she used her natural vision in the past few days to look at the natural power on the trees, there was frolicking green mist everywhere.

Now that the rain had stopped, they could no longer grow explosively, and the natural power lingering around them had become much more stable.

Mu Ying arrived at the main entrance of her territory, and apart from the more lush vegetation, it seemed little different from yesterday.

She couldn’t help but wonder if she was overthinking it.

Perhaps the end of the rain didn’t signify anything?

She flipped through the forum, and there wasn’t much—she withdrew her gaze and walked towards the Plantation.

Regardless of whether it was today or not, she didn’t plan to go out rashly without understanding the situation.

She still transplanted the seedlings that had grown large enough into seedling grass baskets.

Ever since she learned the benefits of rainwater, she had prioritized planting various fruit trees.

Most of the soil in the seedling grass baskets was already tightly packed with fruit tree saplings.

By now, she had almost used up the stored fruit tree seeds.

She took out some new seeds, induced them to sprout, and planted them in the ground.

Then, she tended to her large vegetable garden, picking the ripe fruits and vegetables.

Some she stored in her Storage Pouch, and some she put in a frame for Old Yellow Bull to eat.

Old Yellow Bull was living luxuriously in the Plantation; Mu Ying had specially planted a small patch of pasture for it.

This pasture had also mutated due to the rainwater.

As long as the roots were not dug up, the grass could keep growing batch after batch.

Old Yellow Bull loved it very much.

Mu Ying always felt that Old Yellow Bull might have eaten too much of this fast-growing pasture.

Its size had almost doubled, as if it had been on hormones.

Now, as it lay down, even climbing onto its back had become a bit of a challenge for Mu Ying.

And those horns, shaped like hooks.

It no longer seemed like the harmless plough ox it had been.

Still, its temperament remained unchanged, content to stay put as long as it had food and drink, completely Zen.

Its intelligence had also improved a great deal.

Long since had Mu Ying stopped tying it with a rope, but it had been faithfully sticking to its designated patch of grass, paying no attention to the sweet fruits and vegetables in the garden.

The fruits and vegetables were almost all picked, and Mu Ying waved to Old Yellow Bull from under the tree house.

Old Yellow Bull, which had been watching silently the whole time, “celebrated” noiselessly and came running over with a tap tap tap.

As for why it celebrated in silence, it was because Mu Ying had specifically told it using animal conversation, the white fog in the plantation didn’t block sound.

If it made a noise and people outside heard it, she wouldn’t be able to keep it.

Old Yellow Bull was very sensible, especially when it realized that Mu Ying hadn’t ridden it for a long time and the land had only been plowed once.

It felt that day by day, it was being kept for nothing in return, and either it would be slaughtered for meat or driven away.

Reluctant to give up the good meals its new master provided, yet not wanting to be slaughtered for meat, it had struggled with itself for quite a while.

Fortunately, the master made it clear that if it behaved and didn’t cause trouble, it wouldn’t be driven away or slaughtered for meat.

It had to be good to deserve such nice meals without having to work!

Mu Ying didn’t know about Old Yellow Bull’s thoughts, but she could see that its eyes were becoming increasingly human-like and it had a lot of self-control.

It clearly liked the vegetables in the garden very much.

Mu Ying could always see the bull’s footprints near the edge of the garden, but the vegetables remained intact; it must have secretly coveted them for a long time.

Luckily, the yield of the vegetables was not low, and neither Mu Ying nor Yuan Gungun could eat them all.

She stored some in the Storage Pouch, and the rest that ripened were all fed to Old Yellow Bull.

As Old Yellow Bull and Yuan Gungun ate, Mu Ying sat on the steps of the tree house in the plantation to practice Spells.

By now, she had started learning her third 2nd-level Spell.

After Tree Skin Skill, she had learned a sonic attack Spell, Thunder Wave, and was now learning the Flame Saber.

Unlike the Fire Burning Skill’s small-scale fire attack, though the Flame Saber also dealt fire damage, it was much more precise and controllable.

Even using it in the forest wouldn’t risk causing a wildfire.

The Flame Saber allowed one to summon a blade made of Fire Element, not only boasting considerable Attack Power but also capable of scorching the enemy.

Moreover, this saber was conjured from thin air, and with practice, it could be used to surprise enemies with sneaky attacks.

Unfortunately, the speed of learning Spells was still not picking up.

After casting Spells over and over, she almost drained her Mana Value.

It was also nearly noon and she planned to go out for something to eat.

Just then, a familiar light streaked across the sky.

Mu Ying frowned tightly, that light, it was just like the way the zombies had first descended, except this time, there was no advance notice with a voice.

Yes, noon, to be precise, it was just reaching the one-month mark.

What could be within this light?

On this side of the plantation, the only place not covered by large trees, she had a clear view of the “Meteor’s” trajectory nearby.

Most of them fell elsewhere, but one struck the Territory Shield above the plantation with a smack.

Transparent ripples diffused across, the Territory Shield was unharmed, and that “Meteor” slid down the side of the shield towards the border of the territory.

Mu Ying picked up her Pierce Spear and ran towards where it had fallen.
