Chapter 57 A Bumper Harvest (2)
Ruan Mianmian bought a military shovel from the mall, and then Sen used his tail to poke holes around the ginger vegetation, making it easier for the little female to dig.
He felt annoyed whenever he needed to use a humanoid form.
Why is it that he only encounters a small female when it is in his transformed state?
It will take him a few more days to transform into human form. In his current situation, there's nothing I can do to help. Without his nimble hands, he can't do anything.
Ruan Mianmian perhaps sensed Sen's thoughts, and then comforted him, saying, "Sen is amazing too. I wouldn't dare to dig ginger here without you. Although I'm in human form, I'm not as useful as your beast form. Don't be upset, won't you be able to transform soon? I haven't seen what you look like in human form yet, I'm really looking forward to it."
Hearing the little female's words, Sen felt a little better, but he still couldn't help feeling somewhat frustrated.
If he could transform into human form sooner, he could better help the little female.
Regardless, he hoped to transform into human form as soon as possible and show it to the little female.
Seeing Sen's dejected look, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but laugh.
She found this big guy to be really cute at times, especially when he showed this helpless emotion.
She walked to Sen's side, gently stroking his scales, and comforted him, "Don't worry, after you transform, we'll have plenty of time to do many more fun things together. Besides, I believe you'll definitely be a very handsome beastman!"
Sen was touched by the little female's words, and his mood gradually improved.
He gratefully rubbed Ruan Mianmian's hand, indicating that he would patiently wait for the moment of transformation to arrive.
Ruan Mianmian's few words transformed the dark clouds in the forest into a clear blue sky, instantly lifting her spirits.
Then he poked the hole even harder.
There weren't many plants to begin with, and the reason it was so difficult was because everything on this continent was unusually large, making it time-consuming to dig them up.
But it didn't take long before they were all dug out.
Ruan Mianmian beamed as she looked at the ginger, which was bigger than her head; these would last a long time.
Then she wandered around the area, trying to find more.
But after wandering around for a while and checking the map, I realized that there really wasn't anything edible around here except for that potato field.
So she and Sen returned to the potato field, waiting for Yu to bring Tu and the others over.
Feeling bored, she opened the map again and saw a bird-shaped icon heading in their direction.
Ruan Mianmian immediately knew that Yu and the others must be coming. She stood up and said to Sen in a pretentious manner, "Yu is coming. Let's get ready to work."
There is a close connection between orcs and orcs, which is not limited to language and behavior, but also manifested in smell, sound and other aspects.
Especially for companions like Mori and Yu who have lived together for many years, they are very familiar with everything about each other.
Therefore, when Feather, Earth, and Far approached, Forest had already sensed their arrival through their scent and remained silent, waiting for them to appear.
However, to his surprise, the little female Ruan Mianmian was also able to sense their distance.
Logically speaking, females should have a very keen sense of smell, since they are also beastmen.
But Sen knew that Ruan Mianmian was different from other females.
He had a vague feeling that this little female might not be able to transform into her beast form and would have to survive by remaining in her human form.
Moreover, her combat strength and power were exceptionally weak, a situation almost unprecedented on the orc continent.
Although females are considered treasures in this land, none are as vulnerable and helpless as Ruan Mianmian.
Moreover, her appearance in the Lala Mountains was unusual in itself, and given her status as a goddess, they treated her with even greater care.
With a change in airflow, the sound of flapping wings could be heard; Yu and the others had arrived.
Just as Yu had said before, he moved very quickly. Yu lowered his claws, and the basket fell to the ground.
"Ah, we've finally arrived. We thought we had to fly a long way. It was really scary."
Both Tu and Yuan are earth-type beastmen, skilled in digging and filling holes, and have always dealt with the land.
I never imagined that one day I would be flying in the air, and flying so fast and so high.
To save time, Yu flew very fast, which made Tu and Yuan feel airsick.
After Tu and Yuan climbed out of the basket, they steadied themselves a little. Ruan Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they had arrived safely.
"Are you alright? You seem a little dizzy," she asked with concern.
"It's alright, it's just that it's flying too fast, I'm not used to it yet," Tu said, shaking his head.
"Next time, you can let Yu go a little slower," Yuan said, his face still somewhat pale.
Seeing this, Yu said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I flew a little too fast in order to save time."
Ruan Mianmian smiled and comforted her, "I know you're in a hurry. You don't have to rush next time. I have Sen here, so safety is guaranteed."
So, Ruan Mianmian took Tu Heyuan to work in the potato field.
Tu and Yuan were still savoring their flight experience, while Yu was even more cautious, ensuring everyone's safety.
As mentioned before, both Tu and Yuan belong to the earth-type beastmen. They have a natural understanding of plants, and as soon as they approached, they knew that the plants in front of them were edible.
"Goddess, so much food!" Tu couldn't help but exclaim.
After Sen and the others took him in, he rarely left the valley.
One reason is their own weakness, and another reason is that they have to take care of the other weak orcs in the valley.
They were excited to come out of the forest, and seeing so much food to eat made them incredibly excited.
"Haha, right? This whole area is full of them. Now it's up to you and Yuan to work hard," Ruan Mianmian said with a smile.
"Don't worry, we'll be done digging soon." After saying that, Tu and Yuan began to burrow into the ground and turn the potatoes out one by one.
Everyone was very excited to see the big potatoes being dug out, as these were their food for the winter.
The more food they have, the less likely anyone will starve to death this winter. That's wonderful.
Sen and Yu were responsible for piling the potatoes together so that Ruan Mianmian could easily put them away.
Then I saw several orcs working hard here.
As mentioned before, the range within 20 meters centered on her is now her collection range, so Sen and Yu don't actually need to work that hard.
But Ruan Mianmian also knew that if she didn't let them do something and continued like this, problems would arise in the future.
So from the very beginning, she tried to avoid using the system as much as possible.
The system's power is beyond anyone's prediction. If she were alone, she might have no choice but to rely on the system for survival.
But now she has a group of companions and can hunt, so she's basically self-sufficient. Under these circumstances, she tries to use the system as little as possible.
After all, she didn't want to become a useless person who was completely dependent on the system.
Moreover, in this primitive world, survival depends on one's own abilities and wisdom, rather than on the power of the system.
Therefore, Ruan Mianmian decided to gradually adapt to this world and learn to use natural resources to meet her own needs.
Although the system brought her many conveniences, it was not the only way to survive.
Only through continuous learning and hard work can one truly master survival skills and live a better life.
As more and more potatoes were dug up, small mountains of food were piled up nearby. The reason Ruan Mianmian did not receive storage space was so that Sen and the others could see the quantity of food more intuitively.
A short while later, Tu and Yuan emerged from the ground.
At this moment, both of them were in beast form, and their size was not to be underestimated.
They shook off the dirt and then transformed back into human form.
Looking at the mountains of potatoes around them, even though the two had a general idea of what was going on, they were still taken aback; there were just too many.
What followed was ecstasy. It was wonderful! They wouldn't have to suffer from the cold or hunger this winter, all thanks to the goddess.
What a great harvest! The two men, still marveling at their success, were unaware that they had hunted a group of Moo Moo beasts that morning!
