The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 204 Discovering Taro, Simulating Skill Bead Runes
"Do you see these patterns on it? These are runes. I made a spiritual defense rune myself according to the techniques for making runes in the military broadcast."

Song Wen was shocked and said, "Spiritual defense runes? Brother Liang, have you mastered the technology to make runes so quickly?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Well, not that fast. I got a tortoise shell rune before, which had a spiritual defense rune engraved on it. I have been copying it all the time."

"Once this rune stone is activated, it will create a three-meter-sized tortoise-shell-shaped mental defense shield that can effectively block mental attacks."

"Not only that, it also has certain physical defense capabilities."

"You should wear it with you from now on to prevent being attacked by a psychic expert."

Song Wen was delighted. She clenched the talisman in her hand and said emotionally, "Thank you."

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't let others know. I have only made a few so far. You guys can use them first."

"After I find more supernatural stones, I will try to make more rune stones. Then everyone will have a way to defend against mental attacks."

When Song Wen heard this, she felt even happier.

It turned out that he was one of the first people to get the talisman stone made by Brother Liang.

This shows that I am very important in his heart.

She nodded happily: "Well, I will keep it well and won't take it out until the critical moment."

Liang Yuan laughed and said, "I went to see your room. It's missing a lot of furniture. Tell me if there's anything you need."

Song Wen hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Liang, my house was emptied before. Are all the things in your place?"

Liang Yuan nodded: "Yes, they are all here."

"Then...then...can you give them all back to me?" She showed a pleading look.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "But I have already used them on my side."

"what?"

Song Wen immediately showed a hint of disappointment.

But at this moment, Liang Yuan suddenly leaned closer and whispered in her ear: "I have arranged a room next to your sister Yangmei. The furniture and cabinets in it are arranged according to your bedroom."

"That room is also reserved for you."

In an instant, Song Wen shuddered and her cheeks turned red.

"Leave it for... for me?"

She couldn't help but wonder what Brother Liang meant by this?
Sister Yangmei will agree?

For a moment, her pretty face flushed and her heart was in turmoil.

Liang Yuan had quietly held her smooth and slender fingers, but she was still unaware.

Just as she was daydreaming, Liang Yuan was about to continue.

But then a surprised cry came from the terraced fields.

"Xiao Song! Xiao Song, come quickly, come and take a look."

It’s Aunt Li’s voice!
Song Wen was startled and immediately reacted. She quickly pulled her hand away and took a step back. She said, "Um... Aunt Li called me, I... I'll go over and take a look."

She quickly ran towards the field, and perhaps because she was too nervous, she staggered a bit.

Liang Yuan was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Is this little girl so shy even when she was live streaming on the Internet?
He touched his nose and was secretly surprised by the lingering body scent of Song Wen on his hand.

There are no cosmetics or perfumes nowadays. How could Song Wen still have a scent on her body?
The scent is sweet, not like perfume, but more like a flower scent.

Liang Yuan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Song Wen's ability to control plants could also cause her to emit the scent of plants and flowers?
"Brother Liang, Brother Liang! Come and see, haha, come and see what we dug up!"

Liang Yuan was daydreaming when Song Wen suddenly let out a cry of surprise and shouted towards Liang Yuan.

When Liang Yuan heard her calling him, he immediately walked over and asked with a smile, "What did you find out? Why are you so excited?"

"Look, it's taro, it's taro."

Song Wen shouted excitedly. Liang Yuan walked over and took a look. Sure enough, he saw a plant with broad leaves and thick stems in the grass.

The leaves are very large and look like lotus leaves. Even though they are submerged in water, they are still growing vigorously and have extremely strong vitality.

Liang Yuan also came from the countryside, so of course he knew this thing.

“It’s really taro!”

Liang Yuan couldn't help but show his joy. You know, taro is a root crop that is edible.

Its rhizomes are rich in starch, vitamins, dietary fiber, etc. It has a delicate taste, is fragrant and smooth. It can be eaten fresh, or made into flour, beverages, potato chips, crisps and other side dishes.

The key is that taro does not require much sunlight and can grow as long as there is a little light.

And it likes to grow in wetlands.

It is raining heavily right now and it is gloomy all day long. If we want to plant crops at this time, we must first consider whether there is sufficient sunlight.

Liang Yuan's sunflowers are a mutant species and do not require much sunlight.

But the seeds in his inventory, such as sweet potatoes and pumpkins, actually have high requirements for sunlight.

Even if he provided seeds to everyone, it would be difficult for everyone to grow them successfully in this rainy weather.

On the contrary, it is the taro found in these mountains that has truly adapted to the era of the Great Flood through evolution and mutation, and can truly be grown into something edible!
Liang Yuan was delighted and said quickly, "Quick, tell everyone to stop and don't damage this taro field."

Aunt Li said excitedly: "Xiao Liang, I have asked them to pay attention. If the taro can be cultivated well, it can save everyone's life."

"Aunt Li, do you have the confidence to save these taro seeds and expand the planting area?"

Aunt Li immediately patted her chest and said, "I couldn't guarantee it before, but with Xiao Song here, I can definitely take on this job."

"But no matter how much taro likes shade, it can't be soaked in water for a long time. I will immediately have everyone dig ditches to drain the water, and also build racks to keep out the rain."

Aunt Li is indeed an expert in planting. She knows the habits of taro very well and quickly came up with a solution.

Liang Yuan was secretly happy in his heart. Fortunately, he took these elderly people with him when he left the building.

When it comes to farming, it’s still the older generation that’s doing it.

Otherwise, even if he discovered these taro, he would not know how to breed them, how to expand their planting, and how to create an environment suitable for the growth of taro.

Even if Song Wen was there, it would be impossible for her to use her special powers to take care of every taro.

Wouldn't that make you exhausted to death?
Liang Yuan immediately said, "We must build it. Aunt Li, please tell Song Wen if you need anything. We must meet your requirements as soon as possible."

"This batch of taro is related to the future food supply for more than a hundred of us. We must not be careless. Do you understand?"

Aunt Li immediately felt the weight of the task, and said solemnly, "Xiao Liang, don't worry. As a Party member, I promise to protect these taro."

When Liang Yuan heard that she had guaranteed it with her status as a party member, he immediately knew that Aunt Li was really concerned about it.

She nodded and said, "Okay, Aunt Li, I'll leave it to you then."

Liang Yuan looked at Song Wen again: "I'm sorry to have worked so hard for you during this period. What would you like to eat when you get home tonight?"

Song Wen smiled and said, "It's okay. Sister Mei will make delicious food for us tonight. You don't have to worry about it."

Liang Yuan laughed. Both Yang Mei and Song Wen had gentle tempers. Liang Yuan was not surprised that they could get along so well.

The only person that Liang Yuan was a little worried about was Ding Yan.

She has a hot temper and I don't know if she can handle this relationship well.

With thoughts running through his mind, he helped with some work in the terraced fields, and then he heard shouting coming from the winding mountain road.

Liang Yuan couldn't help but look up, and saw Yang Shenmin, Shi Haizhu, Huang Han, Wang An, Wu Ying and others, with dozens of people, coming back from the other side of the highway.

Each of them carried a bucket of water and their faces were full of joy.

Liang Yuan's mind suddenly moved, and he immediately said to Song Wen: "You guys go ahead and do your work, I'll go take a look."

Song Wen nodded: "Go ahead and get busy."

Liang Yuan dropped his hoe and quickly walked towards the road.

From a distance, Gu Feng waved at Liang Yuan and shouted excitedly: "Mr. Liang, Mr. Liang, what a great harvest! We caught a lot of mutant fish this time."

When Liang Yuan heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

If you catch a mutant fish, isn't that just like giving yourself points?

He immediately came over and asked, "A big harvest? Gu Feng, how many did you catch in total?"

Without waiting for Gu Feng to answer, Yang Shenmin showed his rare excitement and said, "This time, dozens of us worked together, fishing and netting, and we caught more than 500 fish in total."

"There are so many fish. After processing them all, there will be enough for each of us to have five fish."

"Mr. Liang, look here. I caught a big, top-notch sea bass. They said you have a sauerkraut fish seasoning packet. Can I exchange it for another fish?"

"Mr. Liang, take a look at this mutant lobster of mine. It must be over ten kilograms. Can you exchange it for some rice or flour?"

"Mr. Liang, we are out of salt at home. Do you have any? I want to exchange these conches for some salt."

……

When many people saw Liang Yuan, they immediately surrounded him excitedly and asked if they could exchange the things they caught this time for what they wanted.

Liang Yuan laughed: "No problem, no problem, we have everything. We will go to the bamboo house later. I will kill the fish first. You just go find Yang Mei. She will be responsible for exchanging the supplies."

When everyone heard this, they were immediately delighted.

A group of people walked towards the bamboo building happily.

They soon arrived at the bamboo building. Liang Yuan asked everyone to line up and let Yang Mei take Wu Qian and her daughter Cai Yao to be responsible for the levels.

He directly used his mental power to start covering and killing the fish.

The efficiency was really fast. After two mental shocks, there were no live fish left here.

The rest of the work was handed over to Yangmei and the others. He returned to the cave excitedly and quickly opened the attribute panel.

"A total of 531 mutant creatures were killed, including conchs, lobsters, and crabs."

"Let me see how many points I have earned in total."

Liang Yuan glanced and saw that the points in the points column had increased from 2012 to 7758.

"Yes, this batch of mutant creatures provided me with 5746 points!"

"Now I have a total of 7758 points. If I use them to draw attribute points, I can get at least 7 attribute points."

However, Liang Yuan was a little hesitant. He actually wanted to draw some more skills.

In these few battles with people with special abilities, he clearly discovered that although his attributes were very balanced, he did not have too many shortcomings.

However, in terms of his attributes, except for mental strength, he does not have enough advantages in other aspects.

It can only be said that there is a slight advantage, but it is not enough to crush the opponent.

Don't think that he has made rapid progress just because he has been adding points recently.

But other psychics are also not idle. They are eating mutated creatures all the time, and the progress of mutation in their bodies is constantly accumulating.

Especially for other psychics, the attributes they are good at are actually growing rapidly.

If Liang Yuan could add all the attribute points he drew to a certain attribute, he would have crushed his opponent long ago.

But unfortunately, the way he drew attribute points was too random, and they were evenly distributed to his various attributes.

So in fact, he needs some skills that can amplify his attribute power.

For example, in terms of strength, he has the skill [Muscle Explosion], which can instantly double his strength value, reaching the terrifying level of a top-level power-type mutant.

Of all his current attributes, the only one that can be considered top-notch is his mental strength.

"Lack of points, still lack of points."

Liang Yuan sighed, thought about it, and decided to wait a little longer.

"Gather 10,000 points and draw a skill."

"Otherwise, even if we draw attribute points, we won't be able to crush Tu Long and his gang in a short period of time."

"The other party now holds the Explosive Rune Stone, which can create a powerful explosion effect."

"This is a big threat. I must have enough defense."

"Defense strength mainly depends on physical fitness. My current physical fitness is 21.8. It would be great if I could draw physical fitness-related defensive skills."

Liang Yuan sighed. In fact, when drawing attribute points, it would be nice if he could draw a lot of spiritual attribute points.

With his current mental strength, if he continues to improve and breaks through 30 points, and then uses the Spirit Turtle Shield skill talisman, he can also greatly improve his defense.

However, the only regret is that the Turtle Shield focuses on defending against mental attacks, and its performance in physical defense is average.

Shaking his head slightly, Liang Yuan gave up the idea of ​​drawing the lottery, as there was still time left.

Everyone is so enthusiastic about catching fish, we will probably go fishing again soon.

I will be able to get 10,000 points soon.

Liang Yuan withdrew his thoughts, took out the green skill bead, and began to figure out the runes on it.

"This rune is obviously more complicated than the Spirit Turtle Cover rune. What's the reason?"

"Are offensive runes more difficult than defensive runes?"

"That shouldn't be the case. They're all mental skills, there shouldn't be such a huge difference."

Liang Yuan rubbed his chin, feeling that the difficulty of the runes on this skill bead was a bit unusual.

He has used his mental power to simulate hundreds of times, but not once has he succeeded.

Its complexity seems to be beyond the ability of one's current mental power to imitate.

"Is it because I don't have enough mental strength?"

Liang Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he had a guess, and then he took a look at his free attribute points.

He looked at the current mental strength value again.

"My spiritual power attribute value is now 29.3. It was 29.2 before. It seems that my spiritual power has also been improved invisibly by constantly simulating the runes of the turtle shield and the runes on this skill bead."

"But it's too slow. I might as well use the free attribute points to increase it to 30 points and try."

"If 30 points of spiritual attribute are still not enough to condense this rune, then we can only wait a little longer."

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan immediately allocated 4 of the remaining 1 free attribute points to mental power.

In an instant, the spiritual attribute points broke through from 30.3.

Liang Yuan only felt a sudden shock of spirit, and a cool feeling filled his mind, and the part of his mental power that was consumed by frequent use just now was directly replenished.

There was a sharp gleam in his eyes, and his pupils were as deep as black holes.

After adjusting for a moment, Liang Yuan opened his eyes again.

He began to concentrate his mental strength again and began to gather the runes on the skill bead.

Time passed little by little, and after about dozens of seconds, Liang Yuan's expression suddenly changed.

Between the eyebrows, there seemed to be a flash of green rune.

However, immediately afterwards, the rune suddenly turned into green starlight and disappeared.

Liang Yuan's face suddenly turned pale, and he felt that his mental energy was consumed greatly, as if it had been drained.

He took a deep breath, his brain was dizzy and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"No, something is wrong. The moment this green rune was formed, I clearly felt that it drained too much of my mental energy!"

“This is not an ordinary skill!”

Liang Yuan reacted suddenly. Suddenly he remembered something and quickly used his [Mental Shock] skill.

[Mental Shock]: Mental shock

Quality: white

Skill requirements: Mental strength 5 points, physical strength 5 points

Skill effect: A burst of mental force shocks the enemy, forcibly destroying their mental consciousness. The attack range is determined by the mental attribute.

Note: If the enemy's mental strength attribute is higher than yours, you may suffer backlash from the mental shock.

"Quality...white?"

Liang Yuan noticed that the mental shock skill had quality levels!
He looked at the other two skills again, and sure enough, they were all white skills!
It seems that he has only seen white skills so far!
"This skill bead is light green!"

"Could it be that the skill quality of this skill bead has surpassed that of the white one?"

Liang Yuan's heart was pounding, feeling that his guess was very likely to be true!

Otherwise there is no way to explain why the scene just now happened.

With his current mental strength of 30.3, he was almost sucked dry by this rune.

Doesn't this explain the problem?

Liang Yuan's eyes flickered, and after a moment, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I'm so stupid. I have such a green skill in my hand, but I still want to save points to draw skills."

"I should improve my spiritual power now, and then comprehend the green skill on this skill bead, right?"

"When the time comes, with my extremely high mental power attribute and green skills, I'm afraid Tu Long will be defeated in one encounter!"

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan did not hesitate at all and immediately opened the system to prepare for the lottery.

However, at this moment, Lao Ma's anxious voice came from outside the cave.

"Xiao Liang! Xiao Liang, it's bad, the enemy is here!"

Liang Yuan was slightly stunned. Enemy?

He immediately thought of the people in the Phoenix Temple shelter.

He didn't even bother to draw the lottery, he immediately stood up and quickly went out of the cave.

"Old Ma, what's going on?"

Outside the cave, Old Ma, who was soaked by the heavy rain, said anxiously, "We were just surveying the terrain in the bamboo forest, wanting to choose a place to raise bamboo rats, but we didn't expect to run into a group of people."

"They claimed that the bamboo forest belonged to them and that they had long ago selected it to raise bamboo rats."

"Zhao Kai and Ding Yan started arguing with them, and the two sides immediately started fighting."

"I didn't expect that there were so many psychics on the other side, and their abilities were different. Zhao Kai and Ding Yan were besieged by several people. They asked me to come back and report the news!"

Liang Yuan's face suddenly changed, and he quickly asked, "Is it Tu Long's people?"

"No, they claim to be from Wuwang Pavilion."

Liang Yuan frowned immediately: "Wu Wang Pavilion?"

He suddenly remembered that when he first went up the mountain that day, the captured Jiang Zihao once said that there are now four shelter camps in Yangshan.

In addition to the Phoenix Temple in the north, there is the Wuwang Pavilion in the east, and there are also two forces entrenched in the south and west.

But he never expected that this person from Wuwangting would actually come and cause trouble on his own initiative.
