Chapter 36

When the child came over, Su Ci casually opened his eyes.

Feeling the child approaching, he did not stop him. Instead, he lazily closed his eyes again and restored his soul power through a light sleep.

The young man closed his eyes, and the light in the car seemed to become softer.

More passengers got on the bus one after another.

At first glance, almost no passenger was not stunned when they saw this quiet and beautiful scene in the middle of the carriage. Of course, after the initial surprise, they would be impressed by the generosity of this handsome young man.

Yesterday, a bloody rain fell, and monsters in the red fog invaded the base. They not only destroyed the logistics building, but also attacked the maintenance team leader who was hiding in the lobby on the first floor. This matter has spread throughout the 24th base.

The entire base is in a panic now. No one would choose to go out at this time unless it is really necessary for work.

Even if they go out, they are fully armed and always alert to extreme weather and possible monsters. Everyone is like a frightened bird.

Not to mention, like this young man, he was able to sleep in the hover bus that had an accident yesterday, and it looked like... he was sleeping soundly?

But after seeing the color of his uniform, everyone suddenly understood.

Oh, it turned out to be the new breeder!

As the news of the giant spider almost kidnapping the maintenance worker spread, so did the news of the new keeper's astonishing performance when facing the giant spider yesterday.

There are many people who have the authority to view the surveillance video of the logistics department building. Everyone who has seen the video has to admire the breeder's fearlessness in the face of danger.

Especially, Luo Shengfei was crying beside him, and this contrast made the breeder seem even stronger in character.

How could he remain so calm in the face of such danger? He looked so frail and delicate, shouldn't he have been so frightened that his legs would have gone limp and he wouldn't have been able to stand up?

Although it is more likely that the new breeder was frightened or was born with a little less brains than ordinary people, this does not prevent everyone from envying and admiring his courage.

Especially the warriors who need to face monsters directly, they can better understand how difficult it is to remain calm when facing such a behemoth.

Of course, it would be better if the commander could not compare them with this breeder when giving them a lecture...

That’s right!

During daily training and battle review today, all officers brought this breeder along, and used this opportunity to help those who couldn't remain calm in the face of the monsters—

Especially in yesterday's battle, the soldiers who made mistakes out of fear were severely scolded!

Some soldiers were dissatisfied and thought their superiors were exaggerating, and then someone cut out that short video clip.

Thus, Luo Shengfei began his life of repeated social death, and Su Ci, the new breeder, made everyone in the base remember his name.

This video was even transmitted to other bases, becoming new material for officers to use in daily training.

What’s even more outrageous is that some officers at the 26th Base even recorded videos of their speeches and asked the recruits to store them in their communicators, watching them three times a day to motivate them to learn from their mistakes and become more courageous.

"Even a breeder can remain calm and composed in times of crisis. How dare you, a bunch of wimps, call yourselves the elite of the military academy?"

"What do you think Prison Star is? If you do it again, you'll lose your life! If you can't even beat a breeder, then go home and feed your kids!"

Then, the video was transmitted from Base 26 and circulated not only within the Guard Department and the Operations Department, but also within other departments.

There isn't much entertainment on Prison Star, so it creates an atmosphere where everyone is quite gossipy.

Although no one paid any attention to Su Ci after he arrived, many people actually knew his basic situation very well, and they also knew that the new breeder was specially recruited with lower requirements.

This can also be clearly seen in the video captured by the surveillance camera - that small body is simply not good enough compared to Luo Shengfei next to him.

Therefore, the trainee breeder's calmness in the face of crisis was even more impactful, leaving the soldiers speechless.

After all, there was a tall and strong Luo Shengfei crying next to him!

And now, the passengers on this bus have the opportunity to witness the extraordinary courage of this breeder Su.

No one went over to disturb him, but just quietly opened the communicator and shared their encounter with the legendary breeder in the group. Some even asked the department leader whether they could recruit this breeder Su as a colleague.

Anyway, no keeper stayed at the brooding center for a full month.

So, when Su Ci arrived at the orchard and had just taken the child out of the car, his communicator rang.

Song Zehe: [thumbs up] [thumbs up] [thumbs up]

Su Ci:?

Song Zehe: [Brother, you're so strong! How did you manage to not be afraid of giant spiders at all?]

Su Ci tilted his head and asked, "Why should I be afraid?"

If he turned back into his original form, that little spider might not be enough to fill his teeth.

He replied with "not bad" and then turned his attention to the plantation in front of him.

The entire plantation was wrapped in solid metal. Not only the windows, but even the main gate was a metal door that was so closed that not even a gap could be seen.

If the words "Peizhiyuan" had not been engraved above the door, Su Ci would not have been able to find the entrance for a moment.

He walked over, and beside him, A Yan followed closely.

Finally, the two stopped in front of the plantation.

A Yan stood obediently beside Su Ci. At this moment, he lowered his head and saw the shadow of the breeder on the ground.

The feet wearing baby shoes quietly moved towards the shadow until they were completely standing in the shadow - A Yan pretended that he also had a shadow, and it overlapped with Su Ci's.

Although the child still had a serious expression on his face, the corners of his mouth were clearly raised.

Su Ci ignored A Yan's little game. He stood at the door. After a while, a hovercraft came from a distance and stopped not far from him.

The carriage door opened automatically, and freight robots unloaded the supplies destined for the plantation.

"Xiaosong, are the water sample results out?" Wu Yunqin walked into the laboratory and asked anxiously.

Zhuang Shisong nodded and said, "Here are the results that just came out. Please take a look."

Taking the test report he handed over, Wu Yunqin flipped through it quickly, her eyes growing brighter. "The pollutant levels in these water samples are surprisingly low?"

"Yes."

Zhuang Shisong's voice was filled with disbelief. "And I'm afraid some of these pollutants were re-contaminated during the water sampling and testing process."

The air on Prison Star contains pollutants. Unless there are purifiers to purify it every moment, it is inevitable that the equipment will be contaminated by pollutants.

Therefore, the original pollutant content in these water samples may be even lower than the test results!

It just rained bloody rain yesterday. According to past experience, the concentration of pollutants in the groundwater will increase significantly after bloody rain. How come it seems like it has been purified?

Wu Yunqin nodded. "You're right. Something must have happened during the bloody rain that we don't know about. We must find out the reason for this change!"

She put down the test sheet and said, "Contact the maintenance team immediately and ask them to help extract groundwater samples from the underground tunnel for testing."

"I'm going to contact the managers of the cultivation gardens at Bases 21 and 26 to ask them if the water quality has also changed."

"Okay!" Zhuang Shisong took action immediately, but just as he was about to contact the maintenance team, his communicator rang.

He took a look and said, "The logistics department has delivered the supplies. Doctor Wu, I'll go with Wei Ming to put the things into the warehouse first."

"Okay, go ahead."

Zhuang Shisong left the laboratory, called another assistant researcher, and drove to the entrance of the cultivation garden to pick up supplies. As a result, when passing the greenhouse, their car speed gradually slowed down and finally stopped.

In the greenhouse, the natural lighting is completely simulated, and even the air flow rate, oxygen content, etc. are strictly controlled. Even in a completely closed soilless cultivation, it can ensure that the plants are in an optimal growth environment.

Of course, this can only reduce the level of pollutants in the air as much as possible, but there is no way to completely avoid it.

The greenhouse is basically made of translucent glass, which allows growers to clearly and intuitively see the growth of plants. However, the reason why Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming stopped was -

Looking around, all the plants in the greenhouse have become lush and green, growing well. The sight of them makes people feel very happy. There is no trace of their previous lethargic look at all.

Zhuang Shisong knew the plants in every greenhouse very well. He couldn't help but get out of the car and go in with Wei Ming to check them out. Then, the two of them turned around tacitly and ran to other greenhouses to check.

Then I discovered...

All the crops grown in the greenhouses were growing better than usual! Strangely enough, the closer the greenhouses were to the main entrance of the plantation, the better the plants were growing.

They checked the data of the nearest and farthest greenhouses and could see intuitively that the crops in the nearest greenhouse had far better data than those in the farthest one!

Even the height of the plant will be one or two centimeters higher.

What is going on?

"Have you changed the water in the culture containers?" Zhuang Shisong asked Wei Ming.

Wei Ming shook his head. "After discovering that the water quality was not right, Dr. Wu stopped the water change."

After receiving such an answer, Zhuang Shisong couldn't help but frown.

If all the water had been changed, the cause of this situation could be found in the water quality, but now... even those greenhouses where the water had not been changed had obvious changes, which didn't make sense.

Apart from water quality, what else could be the reason?

The two of them looked at each other, confused for a moment, and at this time, Zhuang Shisong's communicator rang again.

"Let's go and hand over the supplies first." Zhuang Shisong said.

"Okay." Wei Ming nodded.

Because the distance was short, the two did not drive anymore, but walked directly to the entrance of the cultivation garden.

However, before reaching the entrance, Zhuang Shisong stopped again. Wei Ming, who was one step behind him, also stopped and looked in the direction he was looking.

I saw a strange figure standing outside the greenhouse closest to the entrance.

He was a slender young man, wearing a gray-blue work suit, standing in a well-lit plantation. His snow-white skin seemed to glow, and people couldn't help but focus their attention on him.

He stood lazily outside the greenhouse with his hands in the pockets of his work clothes, looking at the plants in the greenhouse through the glass wall.

And the plants in the greenhouse... are like crazy!

Only a few minutes had passed since they left, and not only had the plants grown visibly more lush, some had even blossomed and borne fruit!

Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming were so shocked that they were speechless. However, the next scene made them even more horrified.

The two of them left in a hurry and did not check whether the greenhouse door was closed. What was worse was that the star chain fruit plants closest to the door had not stopped growing wildly.

As they watched, several vines forced their way through the crack in the door and quickly grew and spread across the glass walls of the entire greenhouse.

Such a strange phenomenon could only be caused by mutated plants appearing in the greenhouse!

"Danger! Get out of there!"

Zhuang Shisong looked at the vines that were getting closer and closer to where the thin young man was standing, and couldn't help but shout a warning.

However, it was too late.

As he was shouting, the entire glass wall was covered by the flexible and slender vines of the Star Chain Fruit. These vines then climbed up the streetlight wires and wove a green net on the walkway.

Then, clusters of pale yellow, star-like flowers bloomed under the shade of the lush, dense, and layered vines.

A Yan stood beside Su Ci, looking up at the flowers blooming above his head, his mouth slightly opened. It was the first time he saw such a magnificent sight, and he finally understood why No. 5 loved flowers so much.

However, his gaze shifted to Su Ci again.

Amidst the blossoming flowers, he still felt...

The breeder is the best looking.

While A Yan was in a daze, the petals quickly faded away, and round green fruits grew on the vines. The fruits continued to grow bigger and hung down, swaying gently in the air.

What was even more magical was that a bunch of the best-growing and largest fruits fell right in front of the young man, and the dark green unripe fruits turned bright red in the blink of an eye, and it was obvious that they were ripe.

The sweet fruity aroma filled the aisle, and the growth of plants in the greenhouse finally stopped.

Everything returned to calm.

Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming stared blankly, forgetting words and thoughts for a moment.

However, the young man who was standing lazily was not attacked as Zhuang Shisong and Wei Ming had imagined. After all the changes stopped, he slightly leaned forward and looked at the red star chain fruit in front of him with a little curiosity.

The star chain fruit was bright red and juicy, swaying gently in the air, as if trying hard to invite the young man to pick it.

Then, the young man really stretched out his hand, pinched one of them with his slender white fingers, and picked it gently.

It seemed that as he pulled, the leaves on the vines were affected and began to tremble slightly. The vines and leaves rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound. The scene looked like the plants that covered the entire wall and wove an entire green net were all jumping for joy.

Zhuang Shisong stared at the scene in a daze.

Although he knew that this might just be a coincidence and there was no scientific basis for thinking this way, he couldn't help but have an idea in his mind -

The plants in the room grew wildly, perhaps just to welcome the young man standing outside and offer him a small fruit.
