The Order of Reality, the Appearance of Premium Seeds

Actually, when Su Feng received the invitation earlier, he felt that the guild had a harmonious atmosphere and that the members were friendly and amicable.

In addition, there are many wealthy young men in the guild, and most of the materials produced are consumed internally. They are quite considerate and generous to players who make a living from the game.

Although the real world has become more dangerous, we have managed to maintain our existing businesses and wealth.

Thanks to the maintenance of order in Dragon Han, the world didn't suddenly turn into the apocalypse, and money ceased to be money.

Upon receiving the message, "Su Yueban" immediately responded indignantly, "Madman, I advised you to bring Little Fish to our guild a long time ago, but you insisted on clinging to old friendships."

"You take them seriously, but they don't care about you at all."

"Come over here quickly! I've already spoken to the administrators; you can just submit your membership applications!"

"Come grind monsters with our team right now! What's with all this fuss from a lousy gold-farming guild!"

After Su Feng informed his sister, the two of them simultaneously left their original guild and, under the watchful eyes of everyone, headed directly towards the "Contending for the World" team.

"What did I tell you? They're all in cahoots! As soon as things got tough, they showed their true colors and ran off to the other side. They're really something else."

"That's enough, let's leave it at that."

"Anyone who continues to talk about it, don't blame me for turning my back on them!"

Hearing further whispers, the chairman, nicknamed "Tractor," sternly interrupted them.

He knew in his heart that this matter could not be entirely blamed on Li Jian; rather, it was simply that the two sides were no longer suitable to act together.

He wouldn't stoop to doing anything outrageous in front of everyone.

In addition, he has a businessman's perspective.

Businessmen should avoid making enemies and try to maintain connections.

Unless there is a significant interest involved.

The two have simply left the association; there's no need to harbor further hatred.

Subsequently, news that players in the District 3 had discovered a new high-level wilderness area where new enchanting materials could drop spread like wildfire on the forums.

Players in other regions may be envious, but their average level lags behind that of the District 3, and they have to admit that the advantage they established in the early stages is not easy to catch up with.

They could only watch as players from the District 3 relentlessly slaughtered monsters, while browsing the enchantment effects posted on the forums.

"Another day of envying players from the District 3."

"They latched onto a top player from the very beginning and have had a smooth ride all the way to now. Jealousy has completely distorted my character."

"It's said that the enchantment increases casting range, which is a godsend for melee classes. At least when doing dungeons, they'll have a safer space to deal damage."

"Once I level up, I definitely have to go farm some materials."

"Still trading? Rich bosses have already started buying up materials; they even have channels to collect materials across different regions now."

"Yes, it can be transferred through a physical medium, but it's a bit more troublesome."

"Some bosses are already recruiting top-tier henchmen to farm materials in the wilderness."

"Lionheart Stone are being sold for ten Gold Coin each! That's outrageous! New materials are always the most valuable when they first appear."

"For Ordinary Player like us, let's wait until the demand from the bosses is saturated before considering it."

"The Twelfth District are recruiting high-level players to form teams to farm stones. Applicants must be level 40 or above to apply. To join a team, you must show your combat power panel. Those with insufficient combat power should leave the team!"

"It's starting already?"

"However, it is indeed possible to assemble a level 40 raid group across the entire region."

"Unfortunately, I'm not that level of player."

While players were engrossed in grinding monsters and collecting materials, Zhang Mingzhen cultivating a field in the front yard of his villa in the real world.

He selected a piece of land on the east side of the courtyard and summoned the Wildsea Candle Dragon to serve as labor.

A giant dragon was seen meticulously carving small pits into the soil with the tip of its claws—because its claws were so large, it could only operate with the tip of a fingernail.

Then, the Sting Bee Queen buried one high-grade pet food seed after another into the pit.

Zhang Mingzhen stood aside, supervising the two pets as they worked.

Considering that the food could be stored in the package for a long time, he planned to plant all the seeds at once.

Since it's uncertain how long it will take to mature, if the wait is too long, he'll have to buy a finished product from the achievement shop as a temporary measure.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the seed was planted, the system prompted "Advanced seed germinating" and displayed a 24-hour countdown.

One day is sufficient.

Having seen this, he had no further objections to the game update.

Clearly, the designers took into account the burden of pet food on players.

Surprisingly, the stinging wasps in the yard seemed to have a particular fondness for these seeds—perhaps because they were both Warcraft and had a natural affinity for these foods.

Without Zhang Mingzhen giving any instructions, they spontaneously built nests around the seeds, seemingly Protection the growth of the crops.

Today's stinging bee colonies are quite different from what they used to be.

Today, the population has increased significantly, making them a force to be reckoned with.

With them Protection the seeds, he could finally put his mind at ease.

Currently, almost every household on Blue Star is growing pet food seeds in order to maintain the satiety of their Summoned Beast.

Moreover, these seeds are multiplying too quickly, seemingly absorbing the game's energy.

Therefore, some people even intend to eat them.

If pets can eat it, why can't humans?

In fact, humans have much better appetites than cattle and horses.

During famines, the grass that cattle and horses ate was also edible for humans.

Moreover, people can use various methods to eat grass roots and tree bark.

Most players live in Safe Zone, where available planting space is very limited, so most people choose to grow their plants indoors.

Although this lengthens the seed growth cycle, it is the most convenient and time-saving method.

Players with ample funds often choose intermediate seeds, which can yield significantly higher yields for the same planting area.

Of course, this is not a problem at all for players who have their own planting area at home.

At least in Little Shirt District, almost every household has a small yard where they can plant seeds directly in the soil.

However, this approach also comes with risks – when all players enter the game, the crops they plant may be stolen by others.

This type of incident has happened more than once.

Therefore, people usually set traps or take various anti-theft measures around the planting area.

Zhang Mingzhen's neighbors, Jiang Donglai and Zheng Guohua, lived close by, and after discussing it, they decided to plant seeds together.

In this way, all you need to do is buy a simple formation from the game's achievement shop.

This formation is currently the most convenient and effective anti-theft measure.

Anyone who approaches the formation without the owner's permission will be attacked, and the owner will also receive an immediate warning.

"Let's plant the seeds here; I think the soil is quite good."

Jiang Donglai chose a corner of the villa, and everyone thought the location was suitable.

"Dad, you can plant your seeds here, but I have to plant mine at home." His daughter, Jiang Min, did not choose to plant them with the others.

"Why? There's not enough Sunshine in the house; it's been proven long ago that it's unsuitable for seed growth."

"Don't disbelieve me, it's very safe with the protective array." Zheng Yingjie thought she was worried about safety outside.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Jiang Min knew she couldn't lie anymore, so she had no choice but to speak somewhat awkwardly:

"Actually... it's because my seed is rather special."

As she spoke, she took out her own seed.

Everyone stared intently, and the system notification indicated that it was actually a top-grade seed.

"Pet Food Seeds (Premium): Can be planted in soil, yields ten seeds per harvest, with a total of two harvest cycles."

"(Premium pet food can keep your pet at full satiety for ten days and accelerate its evolution speed)"

Upon seeing this, Zheng Yingjie was immediately astonished. "Where did you get this top-grade seed? We only know about high-grade seeds, and we've never seen a top-grade one in the achievement point shop."

Jiang Min lowered her head shyly. "Actually... this is what I got from a ten-pull gacha... I originally just wanted to get an outfit... but after twenty pulls, this was all I got..."

As she spoke, she stole glances at her father's face—and sure enough, it had darkened.

Upon Jiang Donglai's anger flared up. "Didn't I tell you not to waste your Gold Coin?"

"Twenty draws, fifty Gold Coin each, that's a thousand Gold Coin? You traded it for this? Is your pet made of gold or something?"

"It's just a regular flying Warcraft! You could do so many things with a thousand Gold Coin, even if you actually got a costume, it wouldn't be worth this much!"

Seeing that Lao Jiang was about to lose his temper, Zheng Guohua quickly stopped him. "Girls, it's normal for them to like to look pretty, it's just that they're not very lucky."

"I think this premium pet food is pretty good. I can sell it to those top players in the game. Their pets have high combat power, and they might need premium food."

"Don't be angry, Lao Jiang. We've already spent the money, so we won't miss out on anything else."

Despite saying that, Zheng Guohua didn't actually approve of squandering Gold Coin like that.

Although they came from well-off families, they didn't have a lot of Gold Coin in reserve, and they mostly invested their money in improving their combat strength.

These days, unless you're a player in the management of a large guild, who would spend Gold Coin on a gacha machine? That girl from the Jiang Family is really being a bit immature.

At this moment, Zheng Yingjie spoke up, "In that case, we should plant the seeds outside even more."

"Do you think home is safer than outside? Without the protection of an array, when no one is home, it's actually safer outside."

"Everyone outside is in the game. If someone actually sneaks into your house, you won't even notice."

Hearing what he said, Jiang Min also thought it made sense, so she planted the premium seeds in the soil in the yard along with the others.

After planting the seeds, Zhang Mingzhen set off for the city to buy some fruits and vegetables.

Delivery services are long gone; if you want any vegetables, you have to go to the market within the Safe Zone to buy them yourself.

He spread his wings and flew straight down from the sky towards the city.

Airplanes have long since disappeared; people now travel either by horse or by flying.

Therefore, even in broad daylight, Zhang Mingzhen did not attract much attention when he folded his wings and landed.

The game now features a wing exchange function, and many powerful players and wealthy merchants have purchased flying mounts and wings.

Who doesn't yearn to experience the thrill of soaring through the skies in real life?

In the real world, game packages have replaced traditional storage tools, and the marketplace is filled with players.

People have long been accustomed to the sight of simply packing items into packages.

This area is under the overall management of the Dragon Han government, and the order is relatively well maintained.

If you are unable to purchase any ingredients, simply write down the required supplies and your payment on the notice board. As long as the price is reasonable, someone will bring them over on the next transaction.

Indeed, similar bulletin boards for posting and accepting quests have been set up in real life.

The game's auction house offers a full range of daily necessities; as long as you have Gold Coin, you can purchase basic items.

Zhang Mingzhen, wearing a mask, went unnoticed by others—these days, most gamers wear masks when they go out; who hasn't made a few enemies in the game?

If something unforeseen happens in reality, it would be far too much of a loss.

Almost everyone on the street covered their faces, and some, like him, even concealed other information.

After purchasing the necessary food and daily necessities, he retraced his steps back to the Little Shirt District.

While not as noisy as the Safe Zone, this place is peaceful and secluded enough.

Within the Safe Zone, he did not see any pet food seeds being grown outdoors, suggesting that people typically cultivate them indoors.

But in such a spacious area as Little Shirt District, almost every household has planted pet food seeds in their yard.

He even noticed that some villas had been surrounded by cleared flowers and plants, and all the crops had been planted instead.

Such a large-scale operation is definitely not for personal use; it's either to support a guild or to be entrusted with seeding—there are indeed people in the game who make a living from this.

When he passed by Zheng Guohua's villa area, he noticed that this family also grew pet seeds, but the difference was that they had a top-grade variety.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed a top-grade pet food seed, of a higher quality than the advanced seeds he possessed.

Was the gashapon machine I encountered back then still operating under a shady scheme?

How did they obtain this item?

After a moment's thought, he deliberately stepped into the Protective Formation's range, intending to ask his master for details.

He was also aware of this formation; players on the forum had already discussed its uses: economical and practical, it was perfect for protecting real-world assets while players were immersed in the game.

The formation was purchased by Zheng Guohua, and he received a warning as soon as it was triggered.

He informed his two sons of the situation, and the three of them, for the sake of safety, returned to reality together and went into the courtyard to investigate.

Upon entering the courtyard, one sees a masked player, whose information is concealed, standing in front of the top-tier pet seed—it seems the player was waiting here on purpose.

"Hello, sir. May I ask what brings you here?" Zheng Guohua spoke first.

"I happened to be passing by and saw some top-tier pet seeds in the yard. I'd like to ask how to obtain them. I apologize for disturbing you."

"If you are interested in trading this seed, you may name your terms. Gold Coin rewards or assistance in leading a team are all negotiable. As long as your demands are reasonable, I will agree."

Zhang Mingzhen has no shortage of Gold Coin these days, consistently ranking at the top of the wealth list, and he speaks with great confidence.

"I'm sorry, these aren't our seeds; we just planted them here with our neighbors."

"However, I know the owner is indeed willing to sell. May I ask how much you are willing to offer?" Zheng Guohua asked tentatively.

"If you can tell me how to obtain them, I can increase the price accordingly. I've only seen high-grade seeds before; this is the first time I've seen premium-grade ones."

Jiang Min had originally revealed this information to them, but at this moment they dared not rashly tell outsiders—ultimately, it required Jiang Min's personal approval.

Zheng Guohua was about to explain that he needed to ask the owner when his eldest son preemptively answered.

Zheng Yingjie answered directly, "She got it from the gashapon machine with a 10-pull costing 50 Gold Coin. She did 20 pulls, spending a total of 1,000 Gold Coin."

"If you are willing to offer a thousand Gold Coin, she will definitely sell it."

Zheng Guohua and his second son, Zheng Yingcai, never expected that Zheng Yingjie, who always prided himself on his strategic thinking, would speak so quickly this time, revealing everything he knew.
