Chapter 55: Planting Space Planning!
Su Ning carefully took out the planting space vessel from her scavenger backpack—it was a delicate earring.
Ever since the system rewarded her with this earring, the detailed instructions for its use had automatically appeared in her mind.
Su Ning put the earring on her ear and silently recited in her heart, “Enter!”
In an instant, Su Ning felt as if she had passed through an invisible barrier. The next moment, she found herself in an entirely new space.
This space wasn’t large and was completely different from the paradise-like domain she had imagined.
The entire space was about 200 square meters, clearly divided into two zones.
One half was dark, barren land, and the other half was lush, green grass.
Su Ning looked up and noticed that while there was no sun, the space was still brightly lit for reasons unknown.
However, Su Ning didn’t dwell on the details—she was filled with anticipation for this space.
“This is perfect. I can separate the areas—one for raising animals, and the other for growing vegetables and grains.”
Su Ning quietly made plans in her heart. She intended to plant crops on the dark soil and raise meat chickens and other creatures on the grassy side.
The thought made Su Ning smile in satisfaction.
“Finally, I can take the meat chickens out—they no longer have to sit in the backpack as decorations,” she said excitedly to herself.
Of course, Su Ning didn’t forget the most important task—organizing the planting space.
She first took out all the items that could be planted, including the Jade Dew Sweet Fruit Tree, three non-mutated Giant Flowers, and the remaining thermostatic flower seeds.
Then, Su Ning planted each type of seed and carefully tended to each plant to ensure healthy growth.
She also placed Hua Hua into the space. Compared to the scavenger backpack, Hua Hua much preferred the active planting space.
Su Ning then thought about what she had planted in the private farmland of the shelter.
“It’s time to transfer those into this space.”
She looked toward the grassy area—she planned to raise the meat chickens and Emerald Bees there.
After some planning, she realized she only needed to allocate a small portion of space to raise the chickens—after all, there were only three.
This left enough space to create a cozy rest area for herself.
That way, even while inside instances, she could have a safe and reliable place to rest. Su Ning was full of hope—no more worrying about threats while sleeping.
Moreover, this planting space could store many items, which was incredibly convenient.
Su Ning couldn’t help but feel grateful—she was lucky to obtain such a magical space.
“I wonder how many people will be able to complete this task,” Su Ning muttered inwardly.
In the Dead Corpse Hell instance, to receive the task reward, one had to kill 100,000 zombies. However, the task wasn’t limited to just one person—anyone who met the kill count could earn the planting space reward.
After finishing the organization, Su Ning began sorting through her scavenger backpack and checking her gains from the Dead Corpse Hell instance.
What excited her most were the still-awakening Corpse Worm and Emerald Bee.
Both creatures were in the process of awakening.
In addition, the furniture she collected from the furniture store was perfect for building her personal rest area in the planting space.
These gains left Su Ning feeling immensely satisfied.
As for the five zombies with different abilities—they took up too much space in the backpack, with each occupying one slot—so she placed them in the planting space. She even made a designated corner for them to squat in.
Not only that, Su Ning assigned each zombie a number—after all, calling them by name felt awkward.
So, No. 1 was the Bullet Storm Zombie, No. 2 was the Burrowing Zombie, No. 3 was the Perception Zombie, No. 4 was the Culinary Zombie, and No. 5 was the Weaving Zombie.
Looking at their pale faces made Su Ning uncomfortable, so she decided to give each one a set of cartoon pajamas and a cartoon woolen hat.
Once they were dressed and hooded, Su Ning nodded in satisfaction, “This looks much better—cuter than before. Now I don’t have to look at your pale faces anymore.”
It was worth mentioning that the headgear was made by No. 5.
Although No. 5 didn’t have combat abilities, it was very capable in support tasks.
As long as there were enough materials, it could weave many useful items.
This time, Su Ning had it try making cartoon headgear—with surprisingly good results.
She now looked forward to No. 5 producing more useful items, like sweaters and wool pants.
Aside from that, Su Ning still had two or three crates of heavy firearms in her scavenger backpack, which she had kept for emergencies.
After all, during critical times, these weapons could be her trump card.
And besides weapons, the containers also held a large amount of supplies—her key to survival.
In the nights after the Dead Corpse Hell instance, Su Ning would open a few crates before bed for the joy of unboxing.
Aside from the three crates of firearms, she had also opened the ten supply crates from the underground base.
These crates contained: Blankets, Bandages, Yarn, Toilet paper, Bottled water, Candles, Salt, Rice, Hot water bottles, and Heat packs.
The crates with rice and salt surprised Su Ning the most.
She finally had the rice she’d been craving.
Since she couldn’t use up all of these supplies herself, she had already planned to keep half and list the rest in her Doomsday Department Store.
Although she couldn’t save the world, she could still help in her own way. Still, Su Ning imposed purchase limits in her store—priority was given to players from Daxia (China).
Later, the Doomsday Survival Store gradually appeared in the eyes of many players.
After having No. 4 cook her a hearty meal—which was really just fried rice with meat chicken eggs and white rice—Su Ning was quite happy.
Then she exited her planting space.
“Since Jiang Nana said they’ll soon head out to rescue Shelter No. 9, and who knows how long that will take, I can’t let my crops go to waste.”
Finally, Su Ning moved all the crops and vegetables from her private plot in the shelter into the planting space, arranging them by type.
Looking at the now-full planting space, Su Ning felt a surge of achievement.
It wasn’t just a recognition of her labor—it was also a sign of hope and anticipation for her future.
