Chapter 179 The Farmer's Amazing Skills, Teng Wanlin and the Dawn Squad

The thought that crossed Gao Yue's mind sent shivers down her spine.

If what Chen Cheng said is true, and Chen Qing is a born bad seed, then Chen Qing himself...

It's actually quite scary.

No, it should be extremely terrifying.

Gao Yue knew Chen Qing, who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Although most of the time they are very indifferent and detached.

However, when facing the weak, she feels pity and compassion, and these emotions are genuine.

"..."

But if all of this is a disguise, how terrifying must the real Chen Qing be?

These things might have been fabricated by Chen Cheng, but Gao Yue inexplicably felt that what she said must be the truth.

Because at times, Chen Qing does give people the impression of being very cold and indifferent, the kind of person who shows no emotional fluctuations towards anyone or anything.

Is it bestiality or divinity?

Despite being someone who has absolutely no empathy, she can still display such gentleness.

This kind of person, whether you're a friend or an enemy...

A flicker of fear crossed Gao Yue's eyes, but it quickly vanished.

However, Chen Cheng still accurately captured her emotions, and Chen Cheng was extremely satisfied.

Of all the children in the orphanage, Chen Qing was the one she disliked the most.

Not only did she attract all the adults' attention, but the children she had finally managed to win over were even more afraid of Chen Qing!

Whatever Chen Qing says goes!

They are all the same kind of people, they all possess the same garbage genes like bedbugs, they all despise everything in this world, they all…

However, when people mention Chen Qing, they always express regret and admiration.

And her... no matter how well she does, everyone's attention will only fall on Chen Qing first!

Despite the surge of resentment within her, Chen Cheng remained outwardly calm and continued to smile and greet everyone.

Gao Yue glanced at Chen Cheng without making a sound. Chen Qing was indeed terrifying, but this woman was the one who deserved the most attention.

Every move she made was inducing two extreme emotional responses in Chen Qing. Gao Yue was no fool.

Having spent so much time with Chen Qing, Chen Qing had never done anything to harm them.

In fact, they received many favors from Chen Qing.

Compared to Chen Cheng, whose background and personality are unknown, Gao Yue trusts Chen Qing more.

Just by looking at the attitude of the people behind Chen Cheng towards her, you can tell that Chen Cheng is definitely not as harmless as she appears on the surface.

Gao Yue's thoughts raced, and she didn't speak much to Chen Cheng during the rest of the voyage.

She still trusted Chen Qing more.

She felt she needed to remind Chen Qing that Chen Cheng was dangerous and that he was definitely after Chen Qing.

Given Gao Yue's attitude, Qiao Zhiyu and the others naturally didn't have much contact with Chen Cheng.

Qiao Zhiyu is an intuitive person, and her intuition is much stronger than Gao Yue's. From beginning to end, Qiao Zhiyu didn't get close to Chen Cheng much.

As for the others... Chen Cheng is indeed very capable.

Before they even reached Rust Island, the others already trusted Chen Cheng completely, and basically believed whatever Chen Cheng said.

Qiao Zhiyu observed that they truly believed in Chen Cheng, and had given him all their money. It seemed they were determined to make Chen Cheng a great success.

A bunch of idiots.

Qiao Zhiyu really disdained associating with them.

As a result, the fleet that departed from the temporary base in the Dragon Kingdom split into two factions.

Gao Yue and her group were on one side, while the rest were all on Chen Cheng's side.

It's not that Gao Yue is worse than Chen Cheng, but compared to Chen Cheng's approach of taking the general public route, Gao Yue only likes to recruit elites who are suitable for their team.

Moreover, she wouldn't even consider someone who isn't a person with extraordinary abilities.

The two are not on the same wavelength.

As for Chen Qing, she is even more different from them, mainly characterized by her aloofness and unapproachability.

While Chen Cheng was subduing the survivors, Chen Qing was busy transforming the planting area.

Automatic soil turning, automatic seeding, automatic irrigation, fertilization and harvesting are all the most basic functions.

Chen Qing created a group of "agricultural experts" who could diagnose the diseases and conditions of common plants and treat them to cure them.

The name "Agricultural Expert" was given by Chen Qing, who clearly lacks any talent for naming things.

Next, there should be livestock experts, fishery experts, and so on.

The agricultural expert is a brand-new model of robot created by Chen Qing based on the blueprints collected by Qing Xian, incorporating all their advantages.

It is a human form with wings and slender limbs, and comes in three sizes: miniature, normal, and giant.

These three types of agricultural experts can solve most of the problems encountered in the growth of ordinary plants and a few extraordinary plants.

Because some plants were excessively large, Chen Qing specially created an agricultural expert with the physique of a giant.

Working day and night in the planting area, Chen Qing's farming skills have advanced to the intermediate level.

The skills of intermediate farmers remain largely unchanged, except for two additional skills that other intermediate farmers can also acquire.

However, Chen Qing was the first survivor to upgrade to the intermediate farmer level, and the system rewarded him with a farmer's passive skill, [Great Harvest].

[Passive - Bumper Harvest (101%-130%): You are a hardworking farmer, favored by the land. Every harvest season, you always reap more crops and livestock products than others.]

For farmers, this is absolutely a divine skill.

It's unbelievable that such a miraculous skill would be obtained by Chen Qing, a professional whose main profession is mechanic.

It's understandable that Chen Qing was the first to break through to the intermediate farmer level.

At this stage, improving one's strength is the best strategy for all survivors.

Very few survivors would pay attention to a profession like farming.

Even if there are survivors who specialize in farming, they may not have the same wealth as Chen Qing, and it's impossible for them to own such a vast plantation like Chen Qing.

Chen Qing's farming skills were built entirely from extraordinary plants and an extremely large quantity of ordinary plants.

To develop agriculture, you first need land, but that's not enough; you also need a stable environment.

Whether it's individual players, teams, or official forces, none of them have the power to do so in the Deep Blue Sea.

Rather than farming, the official forces need to develop their military strength so that they can gradually expand their territory after they have conquered it.

So, Chen Qing actually obtained such a divine skill.

Correspondingly, Chen Qing could continue to replicate this approach and perhaps even acquire the fisherman's divine skills.

However, the probability is not high. Farming requires land and a stable environment, but fishing does not.

The survivors live on the sea, where they can fish anytime, anywhere, which is a stable way for them to earn money.

Farmers are hard to find jobs, but fishermen are a different story.

Chen Qing didn't intend to waste time on this; she could just focus on developing aquaculture.

Aquaculture is also a category of animal husbandry.

In seven days, Chen Qing completed less than one-third of the initial renovation project in the planting area.

She has already solved the overall framework; the rest is just drawing up the blueprints and handing them over to Mechanical Heart and Assistant Bee.

After finishing work, Chen Qing went to the bathroom for a bath and opened the auction on the trading channel.

The auction had already ended, and a total of over 218,000 goldfish were sold.

The big head is from the ghost ship.

This price isn't low; it's somewhat overpriced.

Those survivors were truly scraped together by selling everything they owned.

When the auction countdown began, the price increased by one copper coin at a time.

However, the money hasn't reached Chen Qing's hands yet.

Both the final recipients of the Eight Thousand Fires and the Ghost Ship were bankrupt and unable to afford the system's transportation fees, so they chose to come to Rust Island to have Chen Qing pick up the goods.

They've reached an extreme level of poverty.

They used all their food money on the road to auction off their belongings, and they still owed huge debts; they were practically selling their butts.

Based on the timeline, these two groups should arrive at Rust Island around the same time as Gao Yue and her group.

Teng Wanlin, who captured the eight thousand fires, was the first to arrive at Rusty Island, followed by the Dawn Squad, the new owners of the ghost ship.

This Dawn has nothing to do with the Dawn of the Cross Star. They are a team of pure survivors, and their leader is a man named Xiong Lian.

When they arrived at Rust Island, Chen Qing was contacting Xia Li and Barbara.

The core of a military factory cannot be bought casually, and Chen Qing had no choice.

Items of this caliber are mostly controlled by the Mechanical Association and rarely leak out.

Chen Qing wants to buy the core components of the military factory from the Machinery Association, but he needs an introducer and a guarantor to do so.

This was the first time Chen Qing had learned that the Red Serpent family, which she had just offended, had refused Chen Qing's offer.

One thing at a time, private relationships are one thing, but Barbara doesn't want to offend the Red Serpent family for Chen Qing's sake.

Xia Li might be able to vouch for Chen Qing, but she can't be contacted at all.

According to information revealed by Barbara, Shirley and other mechanics from different schools of the Mechanical Association went to resolve a troublesome matter, and their return date is uncertain.

Chen Qing could only target the Chamber of Commerce and the Red Serpent family's rivals.

However, all the major chambers of commerce are in cahoots with the Machinery Association, and they will only sell their products to Chen Qing if he is willing to pay several times the original price.

But whether they actually have it is still uncertain.

As for the Red Serpent Clan's opponents... no one gets up early for nothing.

To win them over, Chen Qing would have to offer something beyond money.

In short, getting the core of a military factory is difficult.

Unless Chen Qing tries to steal it.

That's not impossible...

As Chen Qing was pondering the list of mechanical families with military factories in the Treasure Sea, the Mechanical Heart suddenly reminded her that a visitor had arrived.

It was Teng Wanlin and Xiong Lian.

Chen Qing didn't see them; he simply had Mechanical Heart hand over the items.

She needs to carefully consider her next plan; those mechanic families are not easy to deal with.

Chen Qing has machinery, and so do they, in far greater quantity and variety than Chen Qing.

If Chen Qing can hack into the mechanical core, they might be able to as well.

Her only advantage over them is her extraordinary mechanical ship.

"..."

Chen Qing's gaze fell on the Delugu family. It has to be said that among the many families, the Delugu family is relatively easy to bully right now.

Most of their fighting force is devoted to the war against the Barbaro family, but even so, they should not be underestimated.

It must be a swift and decisive strike; you have to grab it and run.

"..."

Chen Qing stared at the name of the Delugu family, lost in thought.

If one is not greedy for the other treasures of the Drugu family, but only for the core of the military factory.

"It doesn't seem difficult."

While Chen Qing was planning the next move, the Dawn Squad outside was extremely dissatisfied when they saw that only a mechanical construct came out to greet them.

"What does Chen Qing mean? We spent so much money to buy her boat, and she didn't even show her face!"

Xiong Lian's deputy, Xu Hao, angrily cursed at the mechanical ship.

"Who does she think she is! Sending out a machine beast!"

"They look down on you."

Teng Wanlin glanced at Xu Hao, tossed her big, wavy hair, and said lightly.

She held her precious baby in her arms with great care. It seemed she would have to cut her hair for this baby, otherwise it might affect her performance.

"Teng Wanlin! You think she respects you? And you're still here speaking up for her!"

"So you really want to be her dog, huh?"

Xu Hao was already furious, and Teng Wanlin's words only made him angrier, so he immediately turned his anger towards her.

"If she's willing to give me a sniper rifle that's even better than my darling, I wouldn't mind."

"However, it's obvious that even if you beg them on your knees, they won't accept you."

"Also, don't insult dogs. Dogs are so cute and amazing, right, Teng Zhiqiang?"

"Woof woof woof!"

The big black dog beside Teng Wanlin immediately responded loudly.

"Eldest brother, Aunt Chun said this is your second aunt, you can't call her by her full name."

Teng Wanlin's henchman leaned over and whispered.

"Shut up, nobody thinks you're mute."

Teng Wanlin slapped her younger brother on the head, saying that he shouldn't have shown his boss any respect when they were out in public.

He has no sense of propriety at all. I'm never taking him out again.

Forget about being a second aunt; Teng Zhiqiang is clearly her sister.

While Teng Wanlin was cursing her underlings, the muzzle of her sniper rifle inadvertently pointed at Xu Hao.

"I'm sorry, Xu Hao was just a little impulsive, but he didn't mean any harm."

A woman in a white dress pressed down the enraged Xu Hao and looked apologetically at Teng Wanlin.

This is Zeng Xueming, the vice-captain of the Dawn Squad and Xiong Lian's fiancée.

Teng Wanlin was too lazy to pay attention to the two people opposite her, one with a good face and the other with a bad face; the whole team was incredibly hypocritical.

Xiong Lian is the most hypocritical person; he always plays the villain.

Oh.

Teng Wanlin didn't want to get entangled with them any longer. She had accumulated a lot of debt to buy this precious item and needed to earn money quickly.

She brought the wanted list with her.

She absolutely will not go home until she earns 50,000 goldfish!

"Vice-captain, don't stop me! I'm going to teach this stinky guy a lesson today!"

"Bang--!!!"

Xu Hao stood there stunned. A bullet grazed his ear and landed on the sea not far away, causing a huge explosion!

Xu Hao's ear was smashed open, and half of his face was disfigured.

Teng Wanlin's sudden attack stunned everyone. How dare she?!

What were you trying to say?

Teng Wanlin looked at Xu Hao with a smile, the white smoke from the muzzle of the Eight Thousand Fire Gun in her hand still lingering.

"My darling is really amazing," she couldn't help but exclaim.

Coming to his senses, Xu Hao let out a bloodcurdling scream!
