The apocalypse struck, and I became a druid.

Puff puff puff~

In the blink of an eye, the swarming snakes were shot out in four completely vacuum-like streaks of blood.

Under the continuous shooting of four people using squirting gourds.

Hundreds of black snake monsters were quickly killed.

Soon, the blood stained the entire nearby waterway.

The place reeked of fishy stench.

Countless pale blue energies flew out and entered the bodies of the four people.

They closed their eyes, enjoying the nourishment of energy.

"Roar!"

At that moment, a ferocious roar, unlike any human voice, rang out from among them.

Vice President Zhao's skin was bright red, like a branding iron.

Chi chi chi~

White steam billowed from every pore of his body.

"Ugh!"

The old tracksuit worn by Vice President Zhao was stretched to its limit by his rapidly expanding, bulging muscles, turning into pieces of shredded cloth.

His bones crackled and popped like popping beans, and his body grew larger inch by inch.

It eventually transformed into a small giant, 2.5 meters tall, with reddish skin and surrounded by white mist.

Vice President Zhao, now transformed into a giant, clenched his five fingers together and punched the brick wall beside him.

Boom~

The 2-meter-high damaged brick wall was knocked down.

"I feel that my energy has undergone a qualitative change and is much stronger than before."

Vice President Zhao looked down at his hands, his expression excited.

"Old Zhao, congratulations! You're the first one among us to break through."

Upon seeing this, Chairman Wu and others offered their congratulations.

Chapter 129 Experimental Field

"The oppressive aura you exude is somewhat reminiscent of Mr. Han," a vice president remarked in amazement.

"No, no, no, I'm still far inferior to Mr. Han." Vice President Zhao smiled and shrank his body.

He lifted his squirting melon and gave it a big kiss on the fruit: "Thanks to you, little guy."

"From this perspective, when the energy within an awakened individual accumulates to a certain level, a qualitative change will occur," Chairman Wu said thoughtfully.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's keep hunting! I want to undergo a qualitative change too." The others looked eager to try.

With the squirting cucumbers cultivated by Han Ning, their hunting efficiency has greatly improved.

The elite black snakes and swarms of snakes that used to require several people to barely fight against can now be easily swept away.

"kill!"

Vice President Zhao picked up the flowerpot and walked towards the corpse of the elite black snake.

……

[Druid growth progress +1, current Lv7, 1354/4000]

...

[Druid growth progress +22, current Lv7, 1625/4000]

"Oh? It seems that Chairman Wu's group has already started fighting. They're quite efficient."

At this moment, Han Ning, who was still assisting Professor Ye in planting rice in the office building, had a change in expression.

Without even leaving home, he received a guaranteed amount of experience through the soul contract with his animal companions.

After two days of accelerated ripening and cultivation, he used five energy crystals to cultivate five relatively normal-developing water spout melons, along with matching high-energy soil, and signed contracts with each of them.

Because the awakened ones at Biyun Resort urgently need powerful squirting cucumbers, all 5 plants are water arrow squirting cucumbers.

Han Ning is currently standing on the second floor of an office building.

Below is the first floor, which was mostly submerged by floodwater.

At this moment, Xuebing's body was half-submerged in the water at the entrance of the stairwell, and the yellowish-brown crystal scales on its forehead shimmered with light.

The sticky mud beneath them seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, with clumps flying out of the water.

During the floating process, the soil inside the mud was extracted and fell onto the relatively dry ground on the second floor.

Gradually, under Xuebing's control, a space of just over 100 square meters on the second floor was filled with a thick layer of relatively dry soil, about 1 meter deep.

It is not large in area and was an experimental field used for pioneering experiments.

If the environment doesn't allow it, making it too big is a waste of energy.

Then, Professor Ye directed several ordinary people to mix bags of ordinary compost into the mixture.

"Spread it evenly and tamp it down."

Professor Ye's voice echoed in the empty floor.

Several ordinary people rolled up their trousers and walked barefoot into the cold, slippery mud, spreading and compacting the mixed soil with uneven steps.

Two other awakened individuals, who had developed weak water-based abilities, stood near the flooded stairwell entrance, pressing their hands against the murky water.

They struggled to muster the limited energy within their bodies.

The water surface rippled slightly, and streams of relatively pure water, under their control, flowed into the spread-out mud.

Throughout the process, Professor Ye constantly checked the mixing ratio of soil and water.

Until the soil texture is between sandy soil and clay.

He gestured for everyone to stop what they were doing, and then directed, "We can start sowing the seeds now."

Professor Ye gave the order.

Several ordinary people evenly scattered the rice seeds from the cloth bag into the moist soil.

Most of them were older and had some farming experience, making them suitable candidates carefully selected by Professor Ye.

Everyone scattered rice seeds into the soil.

"Boss, please." Professor Ye looked at the young man beside him.

Han Ning nodded and walked to the edge of the field.

He stretched out his arms, palms down.

A soft green light poured down from his palm.

The radiance seeped into the soil.

On the surface of the damp soil, tiny green shoots are emerging at a visible speed.

The slender buds broke through the soil, quickly grew taller, and stretched their leaves, turning from pale yellow to emerald green.

In just over ten seconds, the once barren mud was covered by a vibrant, lush green rice seedling, which then stopped growing.

The rice seeds stored in the seed bank are at least varieties that can be harvested twice a year.

Their growth cycle is long, and a single rapid growth cannot catalyze their direct maturation.

Professor Ye stepped forward, stood in the center of the rice paddy, and raised his arms.

A pure golden light shone between his palms.

The light grew brighter and brighter, eventually coalescing into a golden sphere the size of a fist, hovering about an inch above his palm.

It radiates a warm glow, like a miniature sun, illuminating the space.

"Go!" Professor Ye pushed the dazzling golden light in his palm into the air above the rice paddy.

Golden light shone down, bathing each rice seedling in a soft golden glow.

Although Han Ning's ability to moisturize the plants makes the light they require seem less useful.

Professor Ye's purpose was twofold: firstly, to train his own skills, and secondly, to see if these rice seedlings would undergo any special changes under ample sunlight.

"You've all worked hard, go back and rest." Professor Ye withdrew his gaze from the golden light floating above his head and nodded to the people beside him.

Professor Ye then said to Han Ning, "Boss, it's time to hunt. I have to go out with Xu Ming. See you later."

"See you later." Han Ning waved to Professor Ye.

After finishing their agricultural business, Professor Ye and Xu Ming, under Xuebing's protection, went out hunting without stopping.

The others at Biyun Resort are constantly hunting to become stronger, and as Han Ning's direct subordinates, they cannot fall behind.

Han Ning didn't follow; Xuebing was enough to protect the two of them.

……

To the east of the office building is a relatively shallow area of ​​water.

Han Ning waded through the water alone until the water level was just above his calves before stopping.

He chose a spot with shallow water, bent down, and lay down. The icy water soaked his clothes, bringing a bone-chilling cold, but he seemed oblivious.

He closed his eyes and pressed his cheek against the rough, damp, cold mud, as if listening to the heartbeat of the earth.

Breathing gradually became long and steady, subtly matching the monotonous rhythm of raindrops hitting the water's surface.

Spiritual energy flowed out, releasing the [Communication with Nature] skill.

After several days of effort.

His [Beast Form] skill has finally broken through to the intermediate level.

At the intermediate level, the beast form can fuse with two more beast spirits.
