#310 - Chapter 310 Two Stones

After seeing the harvest notification for the white peony this time, Shen Xingyan noticed a 12-kilogram increase in yield compared to the last time. He was very satisfied with this stable double-digit improvement, knowing that he could steadily break the record.

Subsequently, he quickly collected all the white peony into his backpack space and stood in place for more than ten seconds. The notification that Xingyuan had broken the record reappeared before his eyes and echoed throughout the space:

"Congratulations, you have broken your previous record of 518 kilograms of white peony yield per mu, successfully reaching 530 kilograms.

As a special reward, you receive a Talent Skill Growth Stone, an additional 600 square meters of arable land. Xingyuan will make a server-wide announcement. Do you want to disclose your information?"

Seeing the two rewards in this second record, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but be stunned, thinking: "Why are these exactly the same as the rewards for breaking the peony record just now? Both are Talent Stones and farmland. This is the first time I've seen the same rewards twice in a row!

Could it be that my luck value has started to increase its influence after the failure this morning?"

Receiving two Talent Stones in a row made Shen Xingyan somewhat unable to believe that such a good thing could happen. A strange sense of excitement suddenly surged in his heart.

Thinking of the effect of the Talent Stone, he subconsciously looked at Wangcai, who had been following him, and patted Wangcai's shoulder with a smile. Then, he directly took out 100 silver coins to pay Xingyuan World, canceling the announcement. At the same time, the rewards of the Talent Stone and farmland were distributed.

After placing the rewarded farmland, Shen Xingyan's mind moved, and two identical Talent Stones appeared in his hand. It was the first time he had two Talent Stones at the same time, which made him feel like he was a bit of a nouveau riche.

After all, the value of this thing in the real world was evident from the commotion and influence it had previously caused.

"Using two Talent Stones together, this is really a bit extravagant!" Stroking the stones in his hand, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but smile.

Afterward, wanting to use the Talent Stone, he, as usual, gave Wangcai some encouragement, motivating it to manage the entire space well, and then confirmed the use of the two Talent Stones.

At the moment of confirmation, he was kicked out of the Xingyuan World as before. His eyes suddenly went dark, and when the light entered his eyes again, his consciousness returned to the real world.

However, to Shen Xingyan's delight, this time, with the resistance of 100 points of mental attribute, he did not feel as much discomfort as before, only a faint feeling, and the degree was greatly reduced.

According to his estimation, as long as the mental attribute is further improved, he will not be affected by this 'kick' at all.

With a clear mind, he immediately checked his upgraded talent skills through the attribute panel in the Xingyuan Card:

Talent: Summon Skeleton --- Summon 24 skeleton monsters with all attributes of 24 to fight (Cooldown time: 24 hours).

"Skeletons with 24 points in all attributes, although they don't play a big role in combat, their efficiency in farming is really high. Plus, being able to summon 24 at a time has increased the growth rate of my skeleton army, making me more confident in dealing with future Spirit-Rank crops," Shen Xingyan nodded and sighed.

According to his observation, Wangcai and the others now need about nine skeletons per mu to maintain those Level 5 crops after using their skills, while Level 4 peonies and white peonies only need three, making work very leisurely at this current stage.

However, at this rate of improvement, if Wangcai and the others' attributes don't improve, each mu of Spirit-Rank crops in the future will probably need more than twenty skeletons.

If he harvests six mu of farmland every day and plants them with Spirit-Rank crops, the demand for skeletons will be less than the increase. Therefore, he feels it is necessary to prepare in advance.

Having almost experienced the 'task stagnation' penalty before, Shen Xingyan seemed to have developed 'skeleton shortage phobia' and expressed his heartfelt love for the Talent Stone that could alleviate this symptom!

After confirming the talent skills in the real world, Shen Xingyan returned to the Xingyuan World again.

Inside the professional space, his figure reappeared. He looked at Wangcai, who was still standing in place directing, and found that its attributes had also reached 24 points in all attributes with the improvement of the talent skill.

At this time, Wangcai saw that its master had returned so quickly, and couldn't help but excitedly stepped forward to thank him: "Thank you, Master, for your divine power!"

While saying this, it also knelt down on one knee in a human-like manner, kowtowing to Shen Xingyan and conveying admiration.

However, Shen Xingyan frowned slightly when he saw Wangcai's behavior and said with some displeasure: "Wangcai, don't do this in the future. I don't like this here, understand?"

Shen Xingyan instinctively felt repulsed by this kneeling posture, only because he had seen too many examples of people kneeling for a living during his long life at the bottom of society.

He had also put himself in their shoes and thought about what he would do if he encountered that situation, but the final result he could choose made him feel very helpless.

With empathy, only those at the bottom can best understand the feelings of those at the bottom, so he instinctively disliked this action.

After Wangcai noticed its master's emotions, it hurriedly stood up, looking slightly uneasy. Having been together for so long, it was the first time it had seen its master show displeasure.

Although it didn't know why the action of expressing obedience, which was engraved in its consciousness, would make its master feel displeased, it remembered that its master didn't like this kind of behavior.

Seeing Wangcai's appearance and feeling its emotions through the consciousness connection, Shen Xingyan also knew that he had not controlled his emotions well just now and was a little harsh on the 'child'. Seeing this, he gently patted Wangcai's shoulder and comforted it with a smile.

In his opinion, although Wangcai's intelligence development was already very fast, it was still very young, just like a seedling that needs to be cared for. He couldn't let it grow crooked because of his carelessness.

Seeing that its master had returned to his usual warmth, Wangcai's originally fluctuating emotions instantly stabilized, really like an obedient child, easily appeased!

Seeing the revitalized Wangcai, Shen Xingyan also thought of Wangcai's hobby of collecting little brothers, and then led it to one end of the farmland, gently chanting his talent skill.

Before long, 24 skeletons with all attributes of 24 points appeared on the land in front of him. Wangcai, seeing so many little brothers coming again, also became excited.
