[The Empire's Sorrow, the Silver Starlight Shines Forever!]
As soon as Bai Li logged into the Star Network, he was caught by the dark red bold font on the homepage. He clicked in and scrolled down, and sure enough, he saw that the comment section was filled with smoke, and the angry interstellar people were already cursing.
There is no way. Who made the "Imperial News" so inhumane that it dared to fabricate the news that the Imperial General unfortunately passed away a few days ago?
Below the text was a picture taken secretly from a long distance. Although the image was blurry, one could still vaguely make out the imposing aura of the silver-haired young man in the picture.
The opponent is the Empire's God of War, the ceiling of interstellar combat power. In the final battle with the Zerg five years ago, he killed the Zerg Queen alone and won the final victory in the war.
After staring at the picture for a few seconds, Bai Li came back to his senses and unconsciously pursed his red lips. If possible, he also hoped that this hero of the empire would not die young from the terrible gene collapse disease as described in the text.
Even though, he is not a native interstellar person.
“…”
Yes, that's right, Bai Li was not the real owner of this body, but he woke up from this body inexplicably this morning. When he woke up, he could no longer find the soul of the original owner. Only the echo of consciousness remained in the empty body:
“Try to survive.”
There was no way to return to the fairyland for the time being, and this body happened to be a perfect match for his soul. If he recalled carefully, he could still retrieve some memory fragments. Bai Li thanked the missing original owner in his heart and decided to stay here temporarily.
It would be great if the original owner came back in the future, and he had accumulated enough strength to go back, and could return his body intact.
I just don't know how long this future will be. Bai Li raised his hand and glanced at his thin and frail arm, and began to miss his body when he was full of divine power and could make the seeds he had just planted sprout with a wave of his hand.
What’s the difference between the current situation and starting over after reaching the maximum level!
Oh, no, it can’t be considered the maximum level. He hasn’t officially upgraded from “God of Agriculture” to “Shennong”!
Although they are the same words, the different order makes the meanings of the two words quite different.
Previously, Bai Li was a minor agricultural god in the fairy world, responsible for teaching the common people how to farm and raise livestock, and leading them to earn their livings with their own hands and become rich through hard work. In the process, he slowly accumulated experience points. After hundreds and thousands of years, his divine power accumulated day by day, and soon, he was only one step away from becoming Shennong.
That was Shennong. Mortals made statues of him and burned incense to worship him. As long as they moved his divine thoughts, wherever he passed, grass and trees would grow lush and there would be a scene of a good harvest.
Recalling the wonderful lives of several predecessors after becoming Shennong, Bai Li drooled with envy. But soon, his face fell.
After all, he was still a world away from his dream of a salted fish life. He didn't know if he could achieve this ultimate goal in his lifetime.
However, those who can climb up step by step from the grassroots level are never the kind of people who give up easily. Bai Li was only sad for a short while before he cheered up again. It was nothing to be in an unfamiliar environment, and it was not scary to have reduced divine power. At worst, he could start over again!
Feeling a little hungry, Bai Li first went to the drawer and took out a tube of light pink strawberry-flavored nutrient solution, opened the plastic seal at the mouthpiece, took a sip, and then frowned and put the half-drunk nutrient solution back on the table. Ugh, this taste... He should drink it later.
Sighing, he continued to fumble with the Star Network. The Star Network was similar to the Internet in the 21st century, and Bai Li had some experience. After a little familiarity, he knew roughly how to operate it.
Since I had already clicked on the homepage of "Empire Express", I might as well scroll down. The browsing page automatically jumped down one page, revealing two and a half pieces of information.
[The taste of crops has deteriorated again, where will interstellar cuisine go?]
[The Imperial Research Institute has successfully developed a new generation of fully automatic planting robots. The price of agricultural planets may rise again.]
[The fifth holographic game design competition has officially started registration, and tens of millions of prizes are waiting for you! Registration method: ...]
Bai Li's attention was firmly glued to the first two messages. Thinking of what he saw when he opened the curtains after waking up, he scratched his short black hair in annoyance, successfully turning his originally neat hairstyle into a bird's nest.
The room was located at a relatively high position, and looking down, one could see a world with a silver-grey metallic sheen, like a giant beast made of steel, with its mouth wide open, roaring silently. Various vehicles were traveling in the sky and on the ground, and there were almost no pedestrians on the road.
There is also no greenery consisting of flowers, plants and trees.
Green, only appears on privately owned agricultural planets.
The farming methods of this world are completely different from those of Bai Li's original world: whether it is planting crops or raising animals, they are restricted to agricultural planets, and the operations of planting and raising are not performed by humans. Instead, the owner of the planet purchases the corresponding planting robots and sets relevant programs on the robots, so that they can plant and raise animals automatically and efficiently.
To put it another way, as long as planting robots are equipped on an agricultural planet, the owner of the planet can reap the fruits of the harvest when the harvest season comes.
With just two sums of money, you can get a steady flow of funds for dozens or even hundreds of years. How can those clear-headed wealthy families not scramble to buy agricultural planets? No wonder the price keeps rising!
——Even though the taste of crops keeps getting worse, who wants to keep drinking nutrient solution when they can eat something fresh?
No, this can't go on, Bai Li secretly told himself in his heart that he absolutely couldn't stay on this planet. There wasn't even a piece of land here, how could he farm? ? If he couldn't farm, how could he level up and work hard to become Shennong? ?
It's time to check the prices of agricultural planets online.
However, before Bai Li clicked on the search box, the ring-shaped optical computer on his wrist issued a "ding" message alert sound, and the content of the message quickly appeared in Bai Li's sight.
"Hello, Mr. Bai Li, a citizen of the Empire! The welfare housing you are currently enjoying will expire in three days. Please move out as soon as possible within three days. If you need to find a suitable house, it is recommended that you log in to rental websites such as ０家 and 安０客 to check. Finally, I wish you a happy 18th birthday in advance! - Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs Star Empire Welfare Department."
With a "bang", the boy who was sitting on the metal chair accidentally knocked the chair leg to the ground, making a heavy sound, and then he left the chair like a rabbit and jumped twice before he could stand firmly. However, from his confused eyes, it can be seen that the shock he received was far from as simple as he showed.
What's going on? Is the original owner of this body actually living such a miserable life? He will be homeless in three days. What kind of suffering is this?
Shennong, it is impossible for him to be so unlucky... right?
Bai Li turned on the computer to check the original owner's account balance, but after seeing the number "6666" on it, he paused for a few seconds and shed tears of poverty.
Great, auspicious numbers, but extremely insulting.
Not to mention buying an agricultural planet, you might not even be able to find a new place to live.
Three days later.
"Excuse me, just install the machine in this corner."
In the small bedroom, Bai Li gently directed three tall men in work clothes to install the game cabin and holographic game builder. His eyes would often glance at the black fur ears of one of them, and a few flames would flash.
Most people in this world have animal genes, and when the genes awaken, they have the ability to transform into animals. After awakening, they can easily hide their animal characteristics, but there are special cases, such as suffering from gene collapse disease. In the early stages of the disease, animal characteristics will emerge uncontrollably.
Maybe Bai Li's gaze was too scorching, the owner of the hairy ears uncomfortably turned to his companion, quickly rubbed his ears with a little sadness, suppressed the uncontrollable irritability rising from deep in his heart, and silently completed the last step of fixing the machine.
The retired military beast is looking for a job again. He doesn't want to lose this job that he has worked so hard to get just because he can't control his temper. The Imperial Research Institute said that keeping yourself busy and fulfilled can effectively alleviate the aggravation of genetic collapse syndrome.
Bai Li smiled silently and looked away embarrassedly. He almost forgot that the other party did not show his ears on purpose, but had no choice.
The machine was installed quickly, and the already small corner of the bedroom seemed even more crowded.
"Mr. Bai, the game pod and E-level holographic game builder you purchased have all been installed." The Mao Erduo staff handed Bai Li a thick instruction manual and continued, "This instruction manual contains specific usage methods and precautions. You can take a quick look at it before turning on the machine. If you have other questions or unclear points during use, or need to upgrade the machine, you are welcome to contact us at any time. We will respond as soon as possible."
The holographic game builder that Bai Li bought was the lowest level, E-level, and the upper limit of player registration was only 500. If he wanted to increase the number of registered players, he would need to spend money to upgrade the builder. The next level of holographic game builder alone would cost 100,000 yuan, which was a price that Bai Li could not afford at the moment.
"Okay, thank you, thank you for bothering you." Bai Li took the instructions from the other party and smiled as he sent them out of the gate of the community.
Because of the homeless warning three days ago, Bai Li tried his best to find the cheapest affordable community on "Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs Star" and found a new residence in the community at a price of one thousand star yuan per month.
Later, he found a solution to the dilemma of having no land to farm. Since there was no land for him to farm in reality, he could go to the virtual world. The self-built holographic game would probably temporarily calm his restless farming soul.
Therefore, Bai Li gritted his teeth and spent a full 5,000 star dollars to purchase an E-level holographic game builder, which was also given as a gift.
This operation successfully increased his savings from four digits to three digits. The only thing that remained unchanged was the slightly ironic lucky number "666".
Bai Li watched the installation workers leave and turned around to go back to his low-rent housing.
After walking a few steps, he felt as if his feet had bumped into something. Looking down, he found it was a ball of light orange kitten. It let out a tender "Meow~" that sounded harmless and innocent.
"Huh, the warm light beast?" Bai Li blinked in surprise.
