#120 - Chapter 120 Watermelon breaks the record
After demonstrating the action of killing the small monsters to Wang Cai, Shen Xingyan, just like before when teaching it how to do farm work, left a chacha (a type of small animal) for Wang Cai to deal with.
He wanted it to experience it firsthand, so that it would know how to command the other little skeletons when similar events occurred in the future.
After all, there is always a second time after the first. Now that there has been a first monster invasion, there will be a second and a third. Letting the little skeletons know how to deal with it as soon as possible would ease his mind.
However, he felt a faint worry in his heart: "Weakened chacha, does that mean there are still non-weakened ones? As the level of my crops increases in the future, does that mean the monsters will also become stronger?
Judging from the current attributes of the monsters, the little skeletons can still handle them, but what if they can't handle them in the future? This is a headache!"
Shen Xingyan put aside this worry that had not yet happened and, together with his clone, began to use all their speed and strength to kill the small monsters approaching the farmland.
The Star Origin's maintenance prompts were already appearing frantically. They needed to quickly eliminate these small monsters and then get busy with the farmland maintenance tasks.
Shen Xingyan wasn't worried at all that Wang Cai might not be able to defeat the small monsters. After all, with Wang Cai's current defense attributes, a chacha with 3 points of attack power couldn't break its defense, let alone cause any harm.
And it was only a matter of time before Wang Cai killed the small monster.
Shen Xingyan's monster-killing mode at this time was simple and crude. Basically, with one punch, a wisp of green smoke would rise and then dissipate.
"As expected, these small monsters are task monsters produced by the Star Origin World. After killing them, there isn't even a single experience reward."
After killing a large number of small monsters, Shen Xingyan found that he had not received any experience gain prompts from the Star Origin World.
Skeptical, he checked the attribute panel and saw that the experience value column was still motionless. Seeing this, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
This incident not only didn't have any experience rewards but also added to his worries. He couldn't help but sigh:
"Why do I always encounter these premature events when I'm just planting crops? The fertilization task appeared early when I was planting potatoes, and now the monster invasion has appeared early. Did I receive a 'premature gift pack'?
Or is it that the value of my watermelons this time is too great? Is it already comparable to those level 4 crops, which is why it attracted this event ahead of schedule?
After all, when I harvested the 20-day growth cycle potatoes, their value was already comparable to level 3 crops.
Now that it's the 35-day cycle watermelons, their value may be even higher than level 4 crops. It's reasonable that they attracted these little guys."
Shen Xingyan, who began to analyze this event in his mind, could only comfort himself with this guess.
Thinking like this, his mood improved a bit, and then he continued to devote himself to the 'labor' of killing monsters.
With his and his clone's current killing speed, it didn't take a few minutes to turn hundreds of chacha into wisps of green smoke, returning them to the Star Origin World.
When they looked back, they found that dual prompts had already begun to appear in the farmland, and they immediately began to support it non-stop.
However, Shen Xingyan at this time did not notice that after Wang Cai killed the small monster in its hand, the wisp of green smoke that should have dissipated in the Star Origin World lingered slightly and did not completely dissipate.
Then, a inexplicable scene appeared. The green smoke actually entered Wang Cai's skull head, causing Wang Cai, who was originally preparing to go to the field to work, to suddenly stand there in a daze.
It wasn't until Shen Xingyan called it to go to the farmland to work that it walked towards the working place, step by step.
But it could be seen from its occasional turning back that it had a feeling of unfinished business.
In the farmland, although Shen Xingyan and his clone joined the maintenance of the Star Origin prompts a little later, it didn't have a big impact.
After all, today there were three newly joined little skeletons, and the maturity of the watermelon farmland reduced the amount of maintenance work, which greatly increased the labor force. They became more and more handy in dealing with it, and soon the whole situation stabilized.
Then, after a slightly relaxed two hours of work, the Star Origin World's maintenance prompts began to slowly return to normal.
Shen Xingyan was also freed from the maintenance work and began to welcome the harvest of his watermelon farmland next.
Shen Xingyan was very experienced in harvesting this kind of ground-grown crop. With the backpack space, his harvest was like he had a cheat.
So he didn't let the other little skeletons help. He walked lightly into the melon field, looking at the round and smooth watermelons, and a look of anticipation appeared on his face.
Not only for the harvest of watermelons, but also for the record-breaking reward next.
Shen Xingyan squatted down and gently patted the first watermelon to be harvested. He only felt a clear shock in his hand, indicating that the watermelon had grown very perfectly!
He nodded with satisfaction, and then he unceremoniously pulled up the watermelon and the watermelon vine by the roots and put them directly into his backpack space.
The whole process was incredibly smooth and seamless. It only took less than ten minutes to harvest the entire melon field completely.
When he put the last watermelon into his backpack, the familiar harvest prompt from the Star Origin World rang in his ear without any delay:
"Congratulations, you have planted 600 square meters of watermelons, and the harvest yield is 6600 kilograms, and you have gained 2200 points of farmer career experience."
Seeing this number, Shen Xingyan smiled happily.
"6600 kilograms of watermelons, this yield is really surprising. The highest yield I learned about in the real world before was only about 4600 kilograms. Compared with the two, it is actually 2000 kilograms more!
It seems that the 'task stagnation' penalty is really big! Even those advanced farmer professionals who can stay in the planting space 24 hours a day, relying on cultivation to quickly restore their mental power, can't avoid this!
Fortunately, I have this ace unit of little skeletons! That's how I was able to achieve this achievement!
I don't know how many kilograms my yield exceeds the record of the Star Origin World!"
Shen Xingyan sighed silently in his heart, and at the same time, he began to look forward to what the record-breaking reward would be like!
As he thought this, the Star Origin World didn't let him wait long. A record-breaking prompt suddenly appeared in his expectant expression!
