Chapter Summaries

During a blizzard, giant mutated eagles attacked Qi Feng’s group, and Dr. Wang explained that they were searching for a meteorite whose intense radiation could cause extreme evolution or death. After the Guard repelled the eagles, Qi Feng arranged for Lei Qi and He Fei to trade crystal cores to Sang Luoluo for food and drinks.

• Qi Feng warned Lei Qi to watch for large mutated animals, and giant mutated eagles attacked the camp during the blizzard, snatching one sentry and injuring the electric fence.
• He Fei raised the alarm, and Qi Feng, Sang Luoluo, Dr. Wang, and the Guard prepared to defend the camp.
• Yan Lang, Sheng Feng, and the Guard used laser guns and crystal core weapons to kill the attacking eagles, then repaired the fence and moved the carcasses away as bait.
• Dr. Wang told Sang Luoluo and the others that an enormous meteorite nearby emitted dangerous radiation that could cause mutated creatures and humans to evolve or die.
• After the camp settled, Qi Feng proposed that Lei Qi and He Fei trade their crystal cores to Sang Luoluo for food and drinks, and she agreed.

Sang Luoluo and the expedition endured a blizzard and increasingly frequent attacks by evolved mutated animals before setting out again. When they fell into a dangerous ice hollow surrounded by mutated rats and giant eagles, Qi Feng led Sang Luoluo into the cave, and Sheng Feng ordered everyone to follow.

• Sang Luoluo stayed in camp through the blizzard, exercised, ate discreetly, and absorbed Crystal Cores while Qi Feng traded food and arranged Core exchanges.
• Mutated animals attacked the camp repeatedly, and the Guard fought them off as their growing size, speed, and senses revealed that they had evolved again.
• After the snow stopped, Dr. Wang plotted a new route, and the expedition crossed snow-covered ground where two Guard members fell through the ice into a hollow full of mutated rats.
• Qi Feng shot a mutated rat attacking laboratory personnel as more rats emerged and giant mutated eagles gathered overhead.
• Qi Feng took Sang Luoluo into the ice cave behind a protective barrier, and Sheng Feng ordered the group to follow; the expedition descended into the cave.

Sang Luoluo, Qi Feng, and the others escaped the mutant giant eagles by traveling through tunnels beneath the ice, where they fought mutant animals and collected Crystal Cores. They camped in a large cavern for the night, and Sang Luoluo prepared a hot meal while the group secured the area.

• Sheng Feng proposed traveling through the underground passages to avoid the mutant giant eagles, and Dr. Wang approved the plan.
• Sheng Feng and Yan Lang split the group, and their teams fought mutant rats, squirrels, and rabbits while Dr. Wang checked the animals’ radiation levels.
• Sang Luoluo and Qi Feng collected convenient Crystal Cores as they followed the Guard through the tunnels.
• After the group fought through a rabbit warren and reached a large cavern, Sheng Feng declared it safe to camp and told everyone to search for Crystal Cores.
• Sang Luoluo stored the gathered mutant animal corpses while Sheng Feng and Yan Lang’s teams searched the nearby caves, concealed the blood, and secured the campsite.
• Qi Feng gave Sang Luoluo a bag of Crystal Cores, and she rewarded him by preparing grilled skewers and sweet potato porridge for dinner.

Sang Luoluo shared and sold freshly cooked food at the wilderness camp, earning crystal cores that expanded her space. As more people traded for food, Dr. Wang also learned that her parents’ records supported his earlier guess.

• Qi Feng, Lei Qi, and He Fei traded crystal cores for Sang Luoluo’s food, and she absorbed more than two hundred cores to unlock additional land in her space.
• Sang Luoluo cooked sweet potato congee and grilled skewers, while Dr. Wang and Jian Cheng prepared food from their own supplies.
• Sang Luoluo offered Dr. Wang and Jian Cheng congee and skewers, and accepted several cans of meat in return.
• A laboratory worker traded crystal cores for congee, prompting others at camp to buy bowls and skewers from Sang Luoluo.
• Sang Luoluo and Lei Qi cooked more congee as Qi Feng continued grilling, and the crowd’s purchases added another pile of crystal cores.
• Dr. Wang asked Jian Cheng about Sang Luoluo’s parents, and Jian Cheng reported that her father had settled near Base 71 and her mother had come from the shantytown outside it.

Sang Luoluo’s nighttime work in her space yielded more Crystal Cores and supplies, but Qi Feng discovered that objects were floating around her while she slept. After Sang Luoluo learned to move objects by focusing as she did when tending her space, she and Qi Feng began testing what seemed to be a new ability.

• Sang Luoluo traded for dozens of Crystal Cores, unlocked more land, harvested crops and supplies, and sorted the animals in her space.
• Qi Feng saw an ice cube and then a kettle float while Sang Luoluo slept, and discovered two cushions drifting inside her tent.
• Qi Feng woke Sang Luoluo and messaged her about the floating objects, suspecting she had awakened another ability.
• Sang Luoluo first failed to make Qi Feng’s cans and nutrient solution float, then succeeded after recalling how she used her mind inside her space.
• Sang Luoluo and Qi Feng continued testing the ability as she made the objects wobble and turn before losing control of them.

Sang Luoluo's unusual resistance to radiation made her the only one able to approach the meteorite, so Dr. Wang sent her to retrieve or destroy it. With Qi Feng and the others guarding her, she continued toward the enormous crystal as mutant animals attacked.

• Sang Luoluo practiced controlling objects with her new ability, then joined the team as Dr. Wang led them toward the radiation source.
• The team fought through active mutant plants and discovered mutant animal corpses as radiation levels climbed and several members became ill.
• Sheng Feng reported that the radiation had reached 14,500 and located the giant black meteorite, while Sang Luoluo's physical readings remained stable.
• Dr. Wang ordered Sang Luoluo to retrieve or destroy the meteorite, and she took explosives and set out with a rope tied to Qi Feng.
• Mutant animals burst from holes in the ice and tree trunks, but Qi Feng, Sheng Feng, He Fei, and Lei Qi shot them while Sang Luoluo continued toward the meteorite.

Sang Luoluo absorbed the enormous black meteorite, clearing the radiation but collapsing as mutant animals swarmed the area. Qi Feng rescued her and brought her back to Dr. Wang, who ordered that her extraordinary readings be monitored closely.

• Sang Luoluo discovered that the giant meteorite was a black Crystal Core and, with Dr. Wang’s permission, absorbed it until it crumbled into ash; she then passed out in the pit.
• The meteorite’s disappearance caused radiation levels to fall, while Sang Luoluo’s physical readings surged beyond the instruments’ limits and mutant animals rushed into the area.
• Qi Feng, He Fei, Lei Qi, and Sheng Feng fought the mutant animals as Qi Feng pulled Sang Luoluo from the pit and carried her to the group.
• Dr. Wang examined Sang Luoluo’s unstable readings and ordered the team to monitor her continuously as a priority for future meteorite research.

Sang Luoluo’s unstable condition triggered a powerful second ability that made objects and people float within ten meters of her, keeping the camp in chaos all night. By daybreak her readings stabilized, and Qi Feng stayed on guard, collecting Crystal Cores to save for her.

• After the mutated animals were cleared, the group moved their supplies to an ice cave and spent the night as Guard reinforcements hunted the highly radioactive animals nearby.
• Sang Luoluo’s vital readings fluctuated wildly, and objects within ten meters of her began floating as Dr. Wang identified the phenomenon as her second ability.
• Dr. Wang ordered the group to leave ordinary items within the affected area and record the data while he monitored Sang Luoluo’s mental readings.
• Sang Luoluo’s power repeatedly lifted people and objects into the air, and a loss of control sent Dr. Wang, Qi Feng, Assistant Jian Cheng, A Muling, and others crashing to the ground.
• At daybreak, Sang Luoluo’s readings stabilized, and Qi Feng killed nearby mutated animals and saved their Crystal Cores for her.

After absorbing the meteorite’s energy, Sang Luoluo woke with an expanded Crystal Core detection range and a new mental-power ability that let her control objects within ten meters. She agreed to help Dr. Wang study her abilities and began preparing a rabbit meal with Qi Feng, leaving the group to recover and work in the radioactive area.

• Sang Luoluo woke after absorbing the meteorite’s energy and found that her space had expanded slightly while her Crystal Core detection range had grown to about fifty meters.
• Qi Feng told Sang Luoluo that she had manifested a second ability, and she demonstrated that she could move a bottle with her mind within ten meters.
• Dr. Wang examined Sang Luoluo, discussed her expanded spatial capacity and new mental-power ability, and asked her to cooperate with further research.
• Sang Luoluo accepted six Crystal Cores from Qi Feng and gave him a live rabbit to prepare, then accepted five more Crystal Cores from Dr. Wang in exchange for a bowl of the meal.
• Sang Luoluo used her mental power to peel and prepare potatoes while Qi Feng skinned the rabbit.

Sang Luoluo used her mental power to prepare rabbit stew and traded bowls of it for Crystal Cores as the Guard members returned from hunting. After agreeing to cook more, she joined Qi Feng, Lei Qi, and He Fei in planning a hunt, then harvested more food in her space and wondered how she would ever eat it all.

• Sang Luoluo quickly mastered chopping rabbit meat with her mental power while Qi Feng prepared the pot.
• Sang Luoluo sold bowls of rabbit stew for five Crystal Cores each, drawing in returning Guard members including Yan Lang.
• When the first pot ran short, Sang Luoluo agreed to cook two more rabbits for the people who had arrived too late.
• Qi Feng suggested that he, Sang Luoluo, Lei Qi, and He Fei hunt mutant animals together after eating, and Sang Luoluo agreed.
• Sang Luoluo ate several bowls, offered peanuts for Crystal Cores, and harvested greens and ripe fruit in her space.
• Sang Luoluo sighed at the growing stockpile of food, and someone asked whether she regretted using the rabbits.

Sang Luoluo joined Qi Feng, He Fei, and Lei Qi on a nighttime search, using her mental power to locate Crystal Cores and hidden mutated animals. After the group uncovered a rat nest and collected dozens of cores, she sensed more nearby, leaving them ready to continue exploring.

• Dr. Wang gave Sang Luoluo two signal flares before she set out with Qi Feng, He Fei, and Lei Qi.
• Sang Luoluo revealed that her mental power could locate Crystal Cores and hidden mutated animals, helping the group find cores in carcasses, ice, tree trunks, and grass roots.
• The group killed a hibernating mutated python and several mutated rats, while Sang Luoluo stored the carcasses for later disposal.
• Sang Luoluo detected dozens of Crystal Cores beneath their feet, and Qi Feng and Lei Qi dug down while she used her mental power to clear the excavated ice and soil.
• The group broke into a mutated rat nest and collected dozens of Crystal Cores, then Qi Feng killed two rats that emerged from a tunnel.
• Sang Luoluo sensed more Crystal Cores in two nearby spots and told the others where to look.

Sang Luoluo and her companions used food to lure mutated rats from a tunnel, killing them and collecting their Crystal Cores. After returning to camp, they processed the day’s haul, sold bowls of stew, and divided 313 Crystal Cores among the four.

• Sang Luoluo rejected He Fei’s suggestion to buy biological pheromone and scattered corn, peanuts, and bread into the rat tunnel instead.
• Qi Feng, Lei Qi, and He Fei shot the mutated rats as they emerged, while Sang Luoluo repeatedly cleared the corpses to draw out more.
• Sang Luoluo sealed the tunnel entrance for the night, and the group returned to camp with many mutated animal corpses.
• Lei Qi and He Fei cut Crystal Cores and valuable parts from the corpses while Sang Luoluo located the cores and collected the remains for burning.
• Sang Luoluo sold potato and meat stew to other Guard members for five Crystal Cores per bowl.
• The four companions divided their 313 Crystal Cores, with Sang Luoluo receiving the extra core and the others receiving 78 each.

Sang Luoluo traded goose eggs for two borrowed robots, then joined Qi Feng, He Fei, and Lei Qi to search a rat burrow for crystal cores. Their food bait drew a huge swarm of mutated rats, leaving them fighting from the trees.

• Sang Luoluo divided the crystal cores, prepared food for the next day, and traded goose eggs with Sheng Feng and Yan Lang for two robots.
• Sang Luoluo and her teammates returned to the rat hole, where Qi Feng and Lei Qi used the robots to retrieve crystal cores she sensed underground.
• Qi Feng warned the group not to risk the borrowed robots and suggested clearing out a wave of mutated rats first.
• Sang Luoluo proposed scattering food as bait and setting an ambush, so the team positioned their crystal core weapons in nearby trees.
• Sang Luoluo scattered peanuts, corn, pine nuts, and walnuts, attracting mutated squirrels and a dense swarm of rats that the team began shooting.

Sang Luoluo lured mutant animals with peanuts and corn, then summoned Sheng Feng and Yan Lang’s teams to help kill the swarms. After a dangerous day of fighting, they collected a huge number of corpses and crystal cores, while Yan Lang questioned whether the reward justified his team’s effort.

• Sang Luoluo and Qi Feng realized the mutant rats would not leave, so Qi Feng suggested calling Sheng Feng and Yan Lang’s teams for help.
• Sang Luoluo promised Sheng Feng and Yan Lang all-you-can-eat rabbit meat and offered to cover the crystal cores their weapons used, bringing both groups to her location.
• Sang Luoluo told the arriving teams to climb into the trees as mutant rats and a pack of mutant wolves attacked, and the teams fought them off.
• Sang Luoluo scattered peanuts and corn to draw out mutant rats, squirrels, birds, lynxes, owls, wolves, and two mutant tigers, while everyone fired from the trees.
• Sang Luoluo collected the mutant animal corpses with her mental power, and Qi Feng and Lei Qi sent robots into rat burrows to retrieve crystal cores.
• Sheng Feng and Yan Lang came over to discuss the spoils, and Yan Lang complained that his people had spent effort and weapon cores to help.

Sang Luoluo helped the Guard clear mutated animals and recovered hundreds of crystal cores, then learned that three more giant meteorites had to be dealt with before the next meteor shower. She agreed to absorb their powerful crystal cores, and the group set out before dawn for the first mission.

• Sang Luoluo reimbursed Yan Lang and Sheng Feng for their teams’ crystal core use and treated the Guard members to a large rabbit stew.
• Dr. Wang announced that another meteor shower would arrive in three days and asked Sang Luoluo to help neutralize three highly radioactive meteorites.
• Dr. Wang explained that the meteorites’ energy exceeded that of the crystal core Sang Luoluo had absorbed before, and she agreed to take on the dangerous task.
• Sang Luoluo helped Qi Feng and the others extract crystal cores from the mutated animals, then rested before the mission.
• Qi Feng woke Sang Luoluo before dawn, and she packed up her tent and cooking equipment as the laboratory staff and Guard prepared to leave.

Sang Luoluo joined an S-rank team to absorb a highly radioactive meteorite lodged in a mountain fissure, while Guard members fought off mutant birds. After Qi Feng rescued her from an attack during her ascent, Sang Luoluo recovered enough to hear Dr. Wang suggest that her ability to absorb crystal cores had improved.

• Sang Luoluo stored the crystal cores collected by Qi Feng and joined the evacuation to an aircraft with Dr. Wang and the others.
• Zhan Qun briefed Sang Luoluo and the captains on the enormous meteorite and the mutant animals it had affected.
• The Guard lowered Sang Luoluo toward the meteorite as aircraft crews battled mutant birds, and she absorbed the meteorite by touching it.
• Mutant birds attacked Sang Luoluo as she was pulled back up, so Qi Feng descended the rope and shot down the birds that broke through the barrage.
• Sang Luoluo vomited and felt dizzy after the absorption, but Jian Cheng's readings showed normal vital signs.
• Dr. Wang told Sang Luoluo that the meteorite had not contained less energy and asked whether her absorption ability or powers had changed.

Sang Luoluo entered a frozen reservoir alone to absorb two giant meteorites while mutated fish and collapsing ice threatened her. She survived the return journey and discovered that her space had expanded and her Mental Power had grown slightly.

• Sang Luoluo descended into the reservoir in an iron cage and encountered large, aggressive mutated fish.
• Sang Luoluo absorbed the first meteorite, causing her space to unlock about a hundred mu of ponds while signaling that it needed more energy.
• Sang Luoluo reached the second meteorite, took a glowing blue Crystal Core into her space, and triggered a rapid collapse of the ice above.
• The mutated fish battered Sang Luoluo's cage as the team on the ice activated its retrieval system after detecting that both radiation sources had disappeared.
• Qi Feng and the others brought Sang Luoluo onto the plane, where Dr. Wang checked her condition and she reported expanded space capacity and slightly stronger Mental Power.

Sang Luoluo used her evolving mental power and specially designed armor to retrieve the final giant meteorite’s Crystal Core from a mutant-animal nest, then returned safely to the base. After coming home ahead of the second meteor shower, she saw her space finish absorbing the core while she prepared to resume farmwork.

• Dr. Wang told Sang Luoluo that her body was adapting to the Crystal Cores, though her ability was evolving slowly and would need more energy.
• Sang Luoluo and the team traveled to a giant meteorite surrounded by mutant-animal nests, where Captain Zhan and Captain Sheng’s pheromones lured many creatures away.
• Sang Luoluo descended in heavy armor, used her mental power to lift attacking mutant animals, and killed them with the armor’s laser cannon.
• Sang Luoluo put the giant meteorite’s Crystal Core into her space, which absorbed about a third before the team hauled her back to the aircraft under attack from mutant birds.
• Dr. Wang recorded Sang Luoluo’s readings, and the team returned to base; after examinations, Sang Luoluo went home with Qi Feng as the base announced a half-month meteor shower beginning the next day.
• Sang Luoluo told Sang Yunpu about the mission, then entered her space after bathing and discovered that it had finished absorbing the giant Crystal Core.

Sang Luoluo unlocked a spatial farm that let her sell food through an app and deliver purchases across space, then prepared with Sang Yunpu for the meteor shower. At Base No. 11, a starving young man downloaded Grandpa CC's Farm and watched his Crystal Cores vanish when he tried to top up.

• Sang Luoluo named her spatial farm Grandpa CC's Farm, set a Crystal Core as its price standard, and successfully bought a potato through the app.
• Sang Luoluo listed potatoes, eggplants, sweet potatoes, fresh corn, and apples for sale, then moved the household's belongings and beds into the basement with Sang Yunpu.
• After the meteor shower began and their wristwatch signal failed, Sang Luoluo and Sang Yunpu trained in the underground city while Sang Luoluo practiced controlling her Mental Power.
• Qi Feng visited and told Sang Luoluo that Captain Xue had been discharged and that they had rented a place in the underground city; he then trained Sang Luoluo and Sang Yunpu.
• At Base No. 11, a hungry young man downloaded Grandpa CC's Farm and tried to top up with two Crystal Cores, which disappeared as the app showed a balance of 15 Crystal Cores.

A starving man discovered that Sang Luoluo’s app could teleport radiation-free food to him, then hurried to seek more Crystal Cores. Meanwhile, Sang Luoluo expanded her shop’s offerings and agreed with Sang Yunpu that they should open a food-and-drink shop in the black market.

• A man bought potatoes and sweet potatoes through the app, confirmed they were radiation-free, and left for the wealthy district to trade food for nutrient solution.
• Sang Luoluo saw purchases from Base No. 11 and Base No. 32 had earned her nearly forty Crystal Cores, then listed more vegetables, mushrooms, and eggs for sale.
• Sang Luoluo and Sang Yunpu ate dinner after training, and Sang Yunpu suggested earning supplies by repairing appliances in an underground-city shop.
• Sang Luoluo supported Sang Yunpu’s wish to work but proposed they rent a black-market storefront and sell food and drinks for Crystal Cores in the evenings.
