Apocalypse: Hero of Potato Fields

Chapter 220: 8 Unique Skills!


At the shelter, beside the steel wall.

Lin Yi fired the gun.

The zombies that were about to eat the black man alive all fell to the ground.

The black man, who was bitten and covered in wounds, ran back to his companions in terror.

All the residents of the underground shelter fled in panic, fearing he would turn into a zombie and attack them.

Lin Yi spoke coldly.

"He will not turn into a zombie, after all, he has a vaccine bracelet on, someone, give him emergency care."

A few doctors ran toward the black man to begin emergency treatment, with a few people carefully checking his vaccine bracelet.

Lin Yi glared viciously at everyone.

"You've lost your home, and I have given you a new one. I have neither time nor patience for your trivial matters. Either you submit, or I will send you back to another world, where…"

He pointed at the injured man, pausing for effect.

"My point is… do you really think it's safe here? Of course not! This place might even be more dangerous than Earth, you'll soon understand that.

In any case, if you can't do the job well, I'll replace you with someone who can, it's that simple, dismissed!"

After saying this, Lin Yi transported to the central area of the shelter, took a shower, and then waited for lunch.

He wanted to organize the skill books in the treasure room in the afternoon and then capture an island,

He also needed to level up the doctors to level 10 and conduct experiments on the newcomers.

He could have postponed all of this, giving everyone time to settle and adapt, but he had a terrible premonition all day, feeling that some disaster was looming…

A few people were absent at lunch.

The professor was preparing in the lab, so he wouldn't be seen until late at night.

Melanie was busy with her external intelligence work in the castle all day, with Xiaochuan helping her, whether he wanted to or not.

Natasha woke up shortly before lunch, ate something, and then went back to sleep.

Lin Yi was the first to break the silence.

"Sylvie, what do you think of the new home? Have you figured out how to use the new workbench?"

"Boss! The workshop is amazing. Although it took some time, we are starting to get the hang of it. The system is really complex but incredibly powerful!"

"Like what? I'm all ears."

"Well… uh… the reactor connected all the equipment and weapon smiths in the workshop into one, so when we're crafting, everyone's magic power is pooled and used together, allowing us to work on the same item!

This way we consume much less magic power, and the crafting speed is several times faster! We made a set of power armor in just ten minutes! It used to take us half an hour!

It can also automatically manufacture arrows, and…"

"Alright, I get it. So basically, your efficiency has improved."

Lin Yi interrupted her.

This red-haired girl, usually very calm and composed, seemed a bit excited now. It was clear she had finally embraced her role as a weapon smith.

Lin Yi shifted his attention to Solomon: "How are the newcomers performing?"

"You mean the black warriors from Earth Earth Shelter? They don't have real combat experience, but they're quite good in training. Hubert will train them further.

As for the elves… one has agreed to join the army… we will test him to see what he can do, maybe we can put him to good use."

"Oh? I thought we'd have to force those elves to fight, by the way, Orianna, how are those racist blacks behaving?"

"Boss! They've been much more obedient, I don't know how you did it, but they're following the rules and working diligently."

The blonde girl looked at Lin Yi and smiled.

"What exactly did you do to them?"

"Hehe, I merely told them the rules of this new world, by the way, Giselle, these mushrooms are delicious!"

"Boss! These mushrooms came from the elves' forest; I picked them this morning. They grow quickly and are very nutritious. The professor confirmed that they are harmless."

"I remember I captured a fragment of it, there were some mushroom seeds in it. We should cultivate a few acres of mushrooms, get on it after lunch! Oh, and how about those berries? Have you tasted them?"

"Hmm… they're alright, but not everyone likes them. I asked the Faru race elves, they said they rarely eat the berries raw. They prefer to make desserts and sauces with them."

"Desserts and sauces? Then we definitely need to plant some, hehe, look how excited Annie is."

"Boss! You're so wicked!"

Annie blushed again at the boss's teasing.

After the meal, Lin Yi still had lots of work to do.

He returned to his laptop and quickly found the email he was looking for.

[Reply: Item Received]

You merged the fragment growing with useful plants.

You received: 5 types of mushrooms, 3 types of berry bushes, 1 celestial tree, spider moss.

All plants have adapted to the shelter.

[The shelter has gained 22,200 experience points]

Next, he opened up a few plots of land.

One plot for planting spider moss, 2,000 square yards.

One plot for planting three types of berries, 8,000 square yards.

And another for planting five types of mushrooms, 8,000 square yards.

These fields cost a total of 14,400 coins, and another 6,480 coins for seeds.

Lin Yi was very curious about what "moss seeds" looked like, but it would take the workers a long time to plow the fields, weed, etc.

So, he decided to leave it for later.

Now, he's going to look at the skill books!

Returning to the treasure room.

He first took stock, there were a total of 108 ordinary skills, 21 rare skills, and 8 unique skills.

Rare skills included three Weapon Master skill books and one Doctor Skill Book.

An interesting skill called "Bear" allows the person to transform into a bear, just like how the King of Lille can become a Hydra, or Terghai can become a gigantic mutant.

Unlike the more common "Wolf" skill, a bear can even face mutants head-on.

There's another transformation skill called "Eagle," which allows the user to become a bird!

There are two such skill books.

Another interesting, yet extremely useless skill is—"Charm."

It's not about making someone easily fall in love with you. It's more like a transformation skill, allowing the user to change appearance and body type to become the goddess of someone's dreams...

However, it has severe limitations.

The only way to revert to the original form is to sever connections with the target, and the user must wait a week before using this skill again.

This skill has no levels, so even a First Level System User can fully utilize it.

Then, there are those 8 unique skills!

"Dragon" sounds just like it is, enabling a person to become a dragon, though it's unclear what type of dragon.

Lin Yi really hopes it's the kind of dragon from China...

"King of Volots," from its description, "can turn the user into some kind of giant...

"Dark Magic," this is obviously a magic skill, but how would one use darkness to fight?

"Master of Archery," this skill speaks for itself, but should it really be given to Xiaochuan?

That kid is completely blinded by love…

Fine, let's give it to him; at least Lin Yi currently trusts him more than any other archer…

"Beast Taming Master" allows the user to tame mutant animals of the same Skill Level, with a chance to tame animals one level higher.

But if the skill fails, the animals go berserk, and the success rate seems low.

According to the description, there is no limit to the number of animals that can be tamed.

This instantly reminded Lin Yi of his grudges against some annoying cats...

"Eternal Youth," there are two of them, it's a unique skill without levels, utterly useless in combat.

For someone with Regeneration skills like him, this is useless; he suspects he may never die of old age.

Should he give this skill to Chen Youyou?

If so, she would have to watch as her younger siblings grow old and die, while she remains forever young...

He thought for half an hour and decided to save this skill for now; he didn't want to arrogantly decide for others' personal matters, even if he was the one in power.

But there are two books, so maybe one could be sold.

Who to sell it to, though? Earth is already in chaos; which fool would waste millions of Coin to buy Eternal Youth?

"And I wouldn't sell it for less than that price either..."

Wait, what about Terghai?!

The lifespan of a Beastman Warrior is only about twenty years... As a trade, all his Beastmen would have to obey me?!

Heh heh heh!

"Or maybe I could give it to Teruo..."

Then he would become a young Shaman, serving me forever! Yes, that's the way to go!

"Sorry, Ter Gai, this isn't your fate, heh heh heh..."

Lin Yi sat there, skill book in hand, chuckling to himself.

Luckily no one saw him like this.

"Alright, what else? 'Attendant#?' What exactly is this thing?"

[Attendant#?]

A unique skill.

Only twelve skill books currently exist, and after you die, there's a chance the skill book will reappear.

It allows the user to summon an attendant.

There are a total of twelve unique attendants, each with its own personality and skills.

The only way to know which attendant you'll get is to learn this skill.

Note: The following attendants have been summoned:

[No.1, No.7, No.8]

"Ugh… alright, looks like I have to learn this skill," Lin Yi muttered to himself.

The skill book dissipated, and a notification congratulated him on learning a new skill.

[Congratulations, you've obtained Attendant No.12!]

The skill will be renamed to "Attendant No.12"...

As soon as the notification disappeared, a black hole appeared in the space.

It was a small black hole, but still looked quite eerie.

The black hole gradually expanded, revealing an egg, a large egg, big enough to fit a dog or perhaps even a ten-year-old child.

The black hole expelled the egg!

Then closed again...
