Chapter 8: Game Instance: Magic Farm (6)

Its figure was twice as large as the Wandering Undead around it. Its skeletal body was covered in shattered armor, and two clusters of faint blue ghost flames flickered in its empty eye sockets. Its right hand clutched a greatsword, its blade corroded into a serrated edge, with dried bloodstains solidified on its spine.

If Wen Xiangjie were awake now, she would be able to see its information.

【Undead Swordsman: Low-level evil creature, slow movement speed, physical attack type evil creature, possesses a certain degree of intelligence and thinking ability, triggers escape mechanism when health drops to 20%.】

From the Undead Swordsman's information, it was clear that its attack power and intelligence were far superior to the Wandering Undead.

That's right, the Undead Swordsman should have appeared in the next stage, but because Wen Xiangjie's farm had killed too many Wandering Undead in a short period, it triggered the Magic Farm Game Copy mechanism, leading to the Undead Swordsman's premature appearance.

The Undead Swordsman was not only larger than the surrounding Undead, but its health bar was also several times longer than theirs.

For other examinees, just seeing such an astonishingly long health bar would likely fill their hearts with despair.

The Undead Swordsman dragged its heavy greatsword fully out of the thick fog, its towering figure completely revealed.

After the Undead Swordsman, which possessed greater intelligence than other Undead, emerged from the dense fog, the first thing it did was look up at Wen Xiangjie's farm.

It had a vague feeling that it shouldn't have awakened from its slumber today.

The first thing that caught its eye was the farm's gate.

It wasn't a wooden gate that looked like it would crumble at a touch, but a majestic and mysterious gold-element magic enchanted gate.

A flicker of doubt crossed the Undead Swordsman's eyes.

This gate, it seemed as if it had never seen it before.

Before it could continue to ponder, a silver crossbow bolt and a lightning ball attacked it.

The ghost flames in the Undead Swordsman's eye sockets trembled wildly.

It actually smelled the aura of death from this crossbow bolt and lightning ball!

The Undead Swordsman instinctively wanted to run, but its feet were bound by the power of rules, unable even to turn its head. It could only watch helplessly as the crossbow bolt and lightning ball landed on it, after which it completely lost consciousness.

A larger pile of gold coins exploded on the ground than before, their golden light illuminating the surrounding thick fog even brighter, as if challenging it.

The thick fog churned even more violently, seemingly enraged.

But in the end, it settled down.

Although it wasn't yet dawn, no more Undead emerged from the thick fog.

After an unknown amount of time, a ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone down on the Magic Farm.

The thick fog slowly changed from pitch black back to white, and the Undead stopped spawning.

The examinees finally breathed a sigh of relief, a weary smile on their faces, their eyes bloodshot from staying up all night.

They had finally made it through the first day.

Although Lin Zhaokai was not as disheveled as the other examinees, a night without sleep left him equally exhausted.

However, they couldn't sleep yet; the waves of seemingly endless Undead that had attacked them last night had sounded an alarm.

This was just the beginning; there would be the second night, the third night... each night would be more perilous than the last!

They had to pull themselves together, plan their planting for today, and sow the seeds again. Only then could they steal some fragmented time to sleep intermittently before the seeds matured.

While the other examinees, with dark circles under their eyes, pondered how to develop their farms today, Wen Xiangjie, who had slept soundly, groggily opened her eyes.

She stretched, got up, and washed. Seeing that it wasn't time to harvest the vegetables yet, Wen Xiangjie first went to the kitchen and, wearing a pained expression, finished her breakfast for the day.

After breakfast, Wen Xiangjie opened the door of her small wooden house. The sun had already fully risen.

She closed her eyes and enjoyed the warm sunlight for a while.

Opening her eyes again, Wen Xiangjie noticed something shiny flickering outside the door.

She curiously approached the main gate, opened it, and a large pile of gold coins appeared before her, blingbling, creating a strong visual impact.

"Wow~" Wen Xiangjie couldn't help but let out a whistle.

She wondered what kind of light was so dazzling and charming; it turned out to be the light of money~

It seemed last night's harvest was quite substantial.

The gold coins automatically flew towards Wen Xiangjie, or more accurately, into Wen Xiangjie's game data.

Wen Xiangjie opened her game data, happily watching her gold coin balance surge.

After the last gold coin also merged into her game data, Wen Xiangjie calculated and found that she had harvested a staggering 21,366 gold coins last night!

She had directly earned back the money for the mechanical arrow tower and the hybrid magic tower. This was a huge profit!

Two hours later, all the Avens had matured.

Among the 23 mature Avens, one plant was distinctly different from the others. Its leaves were not green but translucent white, surrounded by a faint circle of magic runes. Its five petals were translucent silvery-white, and a tiny orb of light floated in the center of its pistil, pulsating up and down with the rhythm of one's breath.

Undoubtedly, this was a Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil!

Wen Xiangjie waved her hand and chose one-click harvest.

【Ding! God-like Tycoon System talent activated! The plants you harvested, 'Avens' and 'Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil', have received a hundredfold return!】

【Your 22 'Avens' have triggered a critical hit, and 2200 'Avens' have been placed in your warehouse!】

【Your 1 'Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil' has triggered a critical hit, and 100 'Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil' have been placed in your warehouse!】

Wen Xiangjie opened her warehouse to check. Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil and Avens could both be sold, and their prices were the same.

However, Wen Xiangjie certainly wouldn't sell the Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil.

She first sold the 2200 ordinary Avens with one click, directly gaining 6.6 million gold coins!

Wen Xiangjie upgraded all of the remaining 23 High-level Catalyst Potion Enhanced Land to Land with Buried Magic Crystal Ore in one go.

Then, on the Land with Buried Magic Crystal Ore, she planted mint seeds, Star Anise Seeds, Tulip Seeds, and saffron seeds respectively.

Wen Xiangjie needed all types of magical plants.

Wen Xiangjie had once gone to a small world in the magic era to complete a mission. There were all types of magic beasts there; some were fire-elemental, so they naturally had high fire resistance, and fire-attribute magic could barely harm them. There were also special types of magic beasts, such as naturally formed elemental magic beasts, for which physical attacks were completely ineffective.

She didn't know if the evil creatures in the Magic Farm Game Copy were like this, but Wen Xiangjie never fought unprepared battles. As long as she speculated a situation might occur, she would take precautions in advance to be prepared.

After planting, Wen Xiangjie eagerly wanted to take out the Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil from her warehouse to use as a weapon on her farm. When selecting the Magic Plant: Creeping Cinquefoil, in addition to the 'Sell' and 'Take Out' buttons, there was surprisingly an extra 'Place' button.
