Not far away.
A large group of pioneers walked towards the entrance, carrying their tools and covered in dust and mud.
Today we cleared land, plowed fields, sowed seeds, fertilized the soil, and even harvested a batch of crops.
The tasks kept piling up and they were exhausted.
Strangely enough.
Everyone was incredibly excited, seemingly unaware of any fatigue, and chatted enthusiastically the whole way.
"You don't see it! The strawberries I grow are bigger than a fist, and they burst with juice when you bite into them!"
"That's nothing! Have you ever seen a giant pumpkin? I grew that myself!"
"There are still too few giant crops. It seems the mutation rate is still not high. I should have used more fertilizer."
As they chatted...
The pioneers then arrived at the entrance.
Because the soldiers had received prior notice, they did not conduct any checks and simply opened the gate to let them through.
One after another, the pioneering teams entered the park, chatting non-stop along the way, with some even munching on fruit as they talked.
This is an unbelievable scene.
The scavengers nearby, who were queuing up for security checks, stared in disbelief.
What fertilizers, what giant crops...
What are these people talking about? I can't understand a word they're saying. Have they gone crazy from farming?
Something's not right.
Where did the fruits and vegetables in their hands come from? They all look so fresh. Did they successfully cultivate them after clearing the land?
We hadn't even planted any seeds yet, had we?
Could it be that these people didn't farm at all and secretly went out to scavenge?
That doesn't make sense!
Although the newly opened areas have a good drop rate, it's impossible to find such fresh fruit at this time of year.
Inside the park.
Scarface, seeing a boy eating a tomato, was so curious that he took the initiative to walk over.
"Brother, where did you get all these fruits and vegetables?"
Upon hearing this, the boy slowly stopped, turned around to look at the scarred man, and took a bite of tomato.
"We're all pioneers; where else could these fruits and vegetables come from? Of course, we grew them ourselves!"
Grown?
Wasn't the land contaminated by the virus, making it impossible to grow anything? Has this problem already been solved?
"Haven't you planted any seeds yet?"
"We've been clearing and turning the land, and we just sowed the crop seeds today."
Scarface's expression changed upon hearing this: "Brother, are you kidding me?"
"I'm not kidding you, this is how it is..."
The boy briefly explained the situation.
As I listened...
Scarface frowned deeply, while his companions listened in disbelief, feeling as if this man was treating them like fools.
“You may not understand, but that’s the truth. I was completely stunned at the time.”
After the boy left.
Scarface sensed that the other person wasn't lying, and his curiosity grew. He was about to ask a few more people.
A familiar voice suddenly came from the side.
"We're all here, guys."
.........
rear.
Luo Feng carried a large bag and took out the fruits and vegetables inside, distributing them all to his companions.
There was a little bit left.
Luo Feng looked at the youngest boy in the group and handed him the bag directly: "Xiao Li, these are for you."
I took the bag.
The boy reached in and took out a strawberry, exclaiming in surprise, "Wow, this strawberry is the size of a fist!"
I took a small bite.
The sweet juice burst open on the mask, wildly stimulating the taste buds, making every cell in the body cheer.
Once you take a bite, you can't stop. You wolf down the strawberries and then lick your fingers with lingering satisfaction.
Looking at the boy's exaggerated reaction.
The other companions tasted the fruit, and they couldn't help but widen their eyes in amazement.
After regaining his senses, the boy handed over the small bag he was holding and said softly:
"Captain, this is for you."
Upon hearing this, the others began to take out their belongings.
"Boss, take these things. We had a pretty good haul from our scavenging trip this time."
"Captain, this is just a small token of my appreciation."
"Old Luo, the drop rate in the new server is really good. Why don't you come back and join me?"
It's a pity.
Luo Feng did not accept the offer, and gently shook his head, saying, "No need."
"I don't need any food for now, and I probably won't be able to come back and join you. You can keep this food for yourselves."
This is……
Don't you want to come back and go out scavenging with them?
Luo Feng's attitude revealed a lot, and the others guessed some of the reasons, so they all asked:
"Brother Luo, was what that person said true?"
"Is that special fertilizer really that powerful, making crops mature in an instant?"
"That guy is definitely bragging. Something so outrageous can't possibly be true."
Luo Feng was about to explain the situation.
Suddenly, the roar of a car engine came from behind. He slowly turned around to look at the door and quietly said:
"You'll find out what's going on soon enough."
Upon hearing these words...
Scarface, the bearded man, and several other companions all turned around to look behind them.
.........
The sound was getting closer.
A long convoy came into view, and the guards at the gate hurriedly moved the obstacles away as the convoy slowly drove into the park.
The first few transport vehicles were filled with armed soldiers, followed by several pickup trucks.
They were all pulling trucks full of food!
At first, everything was normal, with all sorts of fruits and vegetables piled up in the carriage, but something started to go wrong later on.
One of them was a pickup truck, and the cargo bed contained nothing but a giant pumpkin!
Not only that.
Some trucks were carrying corn taller than a person, while others carried not sacks of grain, but enormous grains of wheat.
Scarface, the bearded man, and all the other scavengers in the vicinity were completely dumbfounded!
In everyone's mind.
The same thought came to mind: those scavengers weren't exaggerating; what they said was actually true!
As the convoy passed by, the scavengers gradually came to their senses and began to chase after it.
[Survivors in the shelter, please listen carefully to the broadcast. I have some good news to announce.]
We have successfully solved the land pollution problem, grown food on barren land, and harvested the first batch of crops. We will never have to worry about food again.
The food truck is currently parked in the central square. Everyone is welcome to go and see it for themselves. Each person can pick up a meal. The canteen will also be open once more in the evening.
Half an hour later.
The vast majority of survivors in the shelter, as well as the scavengers from earlier, all gathered in the central square to watch.
Baskets of fruits and melons were laid out on the ground, along with corn taller than a person and a super giant pumpkin.
The first time I saw these giant crops.
All the survivors present stared wide-eyed, their jaws nearly dropping to the ground.
The crowd erupted in cheers!
The survivors began to discuss the matter heatedly, turning the entire square into chaos, while nearby soldiers silently maintained order.
After a round of boasting by the pioneers.
The survivors in the shelter had a pretty good idea of what was going on, and their feelings were incredibly complicated.
"Quiet down, everyone. We're about to start distributing the food!"
These words were spoken.
The restless crowd immediately quieted down, and the survivors silently lined up and began to receive their food in an orderly manner.
Everyone received a small amount of fresh fruit, which they usually ate as soon as they got it.
"The food has run out."
"The cafeteria should be almost ready. Everyone can go to the cafeteria for a meal."
I almost forgot.
I can have an extra meal today.
The survivors hurriedly turned and left; they needed to go back to get their bowls, fearing they wouldn't be able to get food if they were late.
