Chapter 82 - Harvest-Rich Farmland
"It"s actually a mental ability?"
Klein silently took out his lightning bow. Since he couldn"t get too close, he would use a long-range weapon to deal with it.
The Scarecrow of Fear was short-sighted. He could pull closer and shoot again.
Klein walked down the hill and lightly circled behind the Scarecrow of Fear.
With a flash of lightning, he hit the Scarecrow of Fear.
Then, it was pierced through from the back to its chest by a bow and arrow.
A numbing sensation spread through the Scarecrow of Fear"s entire body.
Following that, frost covered the Scarecrow of Fear, causing it to shudder.
Its two hands were swaying, ready to fall at any moment.
Klein immediately shot a second arrow and struck the Scarecrow of Fear once again.
It fell forward.

Klein received a response.
He could finally be at ease picking this tempting planting field. He didn"t know what kind of harvest he would get.
The first type of wheat was more than half of the planting field. It was a common grain in the underground world, Sand Barley.
It was cold-resistant and easy to plant. The taste was not good, but the yield was large. It was like wheat without a sh.e.l.l. Each fruit was plump and round. It was heavy and yellow in color. One could easily pick a handful of it.
The gathering process was extremely simple.
The second type of radish was spicy and juicy. It was rich in oil. When used as a soup, one could taste the taste of ribs and sugar. Half of the naked fruit was like a white radish on the outside.
The upper body was big, and the lower body was like a hammer. There were not many of these things, but they were big enough. Each one of them was as thick as a calf, and each person on the list had a meal for two or three people.
The third type was buried under the soil. It was called the Golden Potato,
Each of them was round, and their skin was golden.
A large string was dug up. The effect was good, the nutritional value was average, and the yield was large.
The fourth type was the rapeseed that was different from the rapeseed in real life. This type of rapeseed was cooked at high temperature, and could be fried into delicious sesame oil.
The fifth type was salted dried vegetables. The leaves were dry and didn"t seem to have any moisture. The taste was slightly salty, and anyone who preserved them for an entire year wouldn"t rot.
If the salted dried vegetables were stewed in sufficient water, they would absorb moisture and turn into delicious vegetables,
Faced with the five vegetable crops, Klein"s grapes, which were gathered by Little Fox and Little Wind, were being planted at both ends of the field to keep an eye out for Klein.
He felt a little guilty even when stealing vegetables,
Other than Sand Barley, the other four types of vegetables had to be uprooted when they were gathered. It was very fast. From left to right, from top to bottom, the fields became bare.
[System notification: Radish+1]
[System notification: Sand Barley+100g, Salted Vegetables+4]
[System notification: Rapeseed+3]
[System notification: Golden Potato+6]
Klein didn"t leave a single item where he went, and he was shocked by the results of the final count.
The total were as follows:
There were 48 Salted Vegetables, 88 Rapeseed, 126 Golden Potatoes, 158kg Sand Barley, 58 Radish.
It was a b.u.mper harvest. So tiring...
Klein looked at the sand in his hands and wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, revealing the joy that only a farmer uncle would have when he had a b.u.mper harvest.
Although it was the harvest that gnomes planted, it didn"t stop Klein from lamenting that the taste of the Sand Barley wasn"t good.
He had sufficient Fragrant Rice now. He could keep a portion of it and sell most of it.
The taste wasn"t very good, but it would definitely be popular if it was used to satisfy people"s hunger and enrich their staple food.
There was no need to exchange it for runes. He could exchange it for some basic supplies. A few kilograms of it could be exchanged for a lot of things.
Klein whistled. When Little Fox and Little Wind heard the order, they hurriedly ran to his side.
They walked to the next catacombs.
Klein said with a smile, "The two of you will be eating at noon. It"s a b.u.mper harvest today, so we can make a table full of good dishes."
Little Fox and Little Wind danced with joy, their faces filled with the joy of a b.u.mper harvest.
They didn"t know if or when the gnomes would discover them.
If they did, would they chase after them.
When he was in the planting field, Klein was looking at the information.
He discovered from the biological ill.u.s.trations that the gnomes lived in groups.
Without the use of tools, the gnomes were actually not dangerous.
If they had tools, they would be a huge problem.
This group of fellows were smart and cunning. They had outstanding engineers and inventors in their race. As long as they saw them as enemies, they would persevere and seek trouble.
He first checked the hints in five directions. Perhaps they lived next door.
Klein calmed himself down.
[If you continued digging to the left, you will enter the gnomes" nest. There are many of them, and they have a large number of weapons with skills. They are not to be trifled with...]
If he were to directly eliminate them from the left, digging through them would be equivalent to walking into a quarry in the catacombs world.
[In the underground cave behind, a pa.s.sing Sand Troll is sleeping soundly. It has some dry rations on it, so you can stealthily steal from it.]
[Digging up, avoid the location of the lava. Be careful of the Lava Crocodiles" sneak attacks. There is an Iron Treasure Chest.]
Digging up was the best choice. Not only was the reward the best, but there was also lava as a cover.
[Digging down might lead to the location of the lava, and it would be suicidal.]
He also needed to mislead the gnomes.
Klein deliberately brought his two pets to the mud wall behind him. He deepened the footprints and then floated into the sky with the Little Fox and Little Wind.
[It isn"t suitable to dig from here. You will dig up lava.]
Klein examined each and every one of them.
[It isn"t suitable to dig from here. You will dig up lava.]
[It isn"t suitable to dig from here. You will dig up lava.]
[The location is just right. It is ten meters away from the lava.]
