When the apocalypse arrives, Cheng Zhiyu, who has awakened no special abilities, binds to a System with a spatial dimension.
Following the System's guidance, he begins growing crops in the space. But... why are the things he plants getting stranger and stranger?
One day, Cheng Zhiyu arrives at a large base. When the people there learn he has wood powers, they can't help looking down on him a little.
After all, wood powers are the most common of all abilities, and also the weakest. Usually, all they can do is speed up the growth of plants and the like.
That is, until a horde of zombies attacks the base and Cheng Zhiyu releases a red blade of grass. It looks so delicate and willowy that even a breeze can bend it over.
Everyone: Is he here to make us laugh?
But then the red grass suddenly swells up and bursts into flames, turning into a huge fireball that rolls around wildly. Everywhere it goes, zombies are reduced to ash.
Everyone: Holy crap, is this damn wood power?!
Later, they discover that Cheng Zhiyu doesn't just have grass that can turn into fireballs. He also has grass that can shoot ice blades, grass that can turn into balloons and carry people through the air...
Everyone: We're done for!

When the apocalypse came, Cheng Zhiyu found a puppy on the brink of death and took it in because he couldn't bear to leave it behind.
But even the dog he raised turned out weird. After all, whose dog grows to be as tall as a person?
Cheng Zhiyu: It's great! The temperature drops to thirty or forty below zero at night in the apocalypse. There's nothing better than burying myself in Dahei's long, thick fur!
Then one day, he woke up to find that what he was holding had turned into a handsome, dark-skinned man. His face was buried in the man's pectoral muscles.
Cheng Zhiyu: !!!

Blurb for Raising Livestock in the Stars:
In the interstellar age, humans have become increasingly formidable fighters, while animals are practically feral.
Jiang Ling missed a step on the stairs, and when he woke up, he'd arrived in this strange place.
The future interstellar world has everything. Technology is so advanced that even ordinary people can travel through space. So why has getting meat to eat, a problem humanity solved ages ago, become such a challenge?
After craving meat countless times since arriving here, Jiang Ling finally decides to raise livestock!
Hmm... Let's start by raising cute chickens, ducks, and rabbits!
Interstellar residents: You mean the cluck-cluck beasts, quack-quack beasts, and long-eared beasts that are always eyeing you up and wanting to bite off a chunk of you... are cute?
But in Jiang Ling's livestream, inside a crude pen made of broken branches... the thing he calls a chicken coop, the coo-coo beasts peck at the feed in their bowl with their beaks, then lay a warm egg right where they stand.
Interstellar residents: ? Why don't they fly away from such a short enclosure? And weren't coo-coo beasts supposed to be feral? Why are they so peaceful?
Jiang Ling: Ever heard of clipping wings? Oh, some of them are feral, but they're in my stomach now.
Interstellar residents: ...Shivering in fear.

A short scene:
In a bizarre food livestream, a brave warrior ambushes a moo-moo beast and defeats it after an arduous struggle.
The warrior picks up a knife and, as the first rays of dawn appear, cuts off the beast's rump. After roughly preparing the meat, he puts it in his mouth. The camera zooms in on his blissful expression. "Friends, this is the best way to preserve the moo-moo beast's natural flavor. Have you got that?"
Jiang Ling watches the screen fill with tips: "..."

Jiang Ling originally only wanted to run a small family farm, but it kept growing until, before he knew it, he owned tens of thousands of acres.
Alongside the familiar cows, sheep, and pigs, he even has little velociraptors...
The daily routine of interstellar residents becomes: the moment they open their eyes, they grab their terminals and use their fastest fingers to snatch up fresh meat from Jiang Ling's farm.
If they manage to get some, it's enough to make them happy for a whole month. And if they can visit the farm stay Jiang Ling has just opened, they're happier still.

Blurb for Getting Dotingly Adopted by the Powerful After Being Hated by the Entire Internet Through Gossiping:
Jiang Zhao offended someone and became the target of online hate. His agency has a thoroughly capitalist mindset and plans to use him as a favor to someone, squeezing every last bit of value out of him.
Just as he is researching whether food delivery or driving for hire pays better, he binds to a gossip System. The reward for his first task alone is 100,000, and the rewards only get bigger from there.
Jiang Zhao's gaze turns sharp: "Money doesn't matter. First, let's dig up dirt on that beast of a manager!"
One day, Jiang Zhao logs in, posts "See you tomorrow night at eight," and quickly logs off.
The haters gather in a flash, ready to curse him until he quits the internet.
But Jiang Zhao starts his livestream right on time, devours eight huge black plums, and dishes the dirt as he eats. "Hey, today I'll tell you about the legendary rise to fame of an old acquaintance of mine..."
The haters are so stunned they forget to curse. This, this... he's practically a pimp! Before long, all the evidence points to the protagonist's manager.
The manager earns himself a pair of silver bracelets.
Next, Jiang Zhao holds up a big apple and takes bite after bite. "Another old acquaintance of mine really likes seeking thrills..."
The bigwig who'd met him only once: I just wanted to take advantage of you. I didn't even succeed! Did you really have to ruin my marriage and family?
Jiang Zhao holds up a big pear. "I have another old acquaintance. He..."
Everyone who's ever offended him is terrified out of their minds: Please, stop naming names!
Jiang Zhao's livestream quickly becomes the talk of the town, with nearly a million people watching at once! The gossip-hungry viewers leap around with excitement every day. Whether you're a celebrity or a tycoon, Jiang Zhao always finds a way to expose every bad thing you've done.
Jiang Zhao also keeps receiving unexpected thanks from powerful people.
A big name in the entertainment industry is so moved that tears fill his eyes. He grabs Jiang Zhao's hand: "Thanks to you, my daughter finally saw that scumbag for who he is. You're a benefactor to my whole family! From now on, I'll be your connection in the entertainment industry!"
A real estate tycoon cries: "Thanks to you, we caught the leech taking kickbacks. Otherwise, my reputation would've been ruined! I'll give you ten houses. Don't be shy!"
The restaurant tycoon cries the hardest: "If you hadn't exposed him, that backdoor hire would've gone on harming people without my knowledge. I'd have been finished too! This branch is yours from now on!"
Jiang Zhao, holding a pile of property deeds and store transfer papers, looks bewildered. "...Huh?"
--
Jiang Zhao returns to his hometown and lives the good life, playing with cats and dogs all day and livestreaming now and then as money pours into his account.
The only downside is that his nemesis, who's been one-upping him at everything since childhood, keeps showing up. And that's not all: the nemesis is always trying to butter him up.
Jiang Zhao is horrified to discover that, well, his nemesis has lost his mind and is actually in love with him!
Uh... but the other guy is 185 centimeters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and a face so handsome it's unreal. Lustful Jiang Zhao finds it a little hard to turn him down.
Theme: Keep striving to live through hardship.
What about Sang Nian's identity? How did the system come about? How did the plants come about? How many foreshadowings are there?
I'm convinced. I've been chasing it until now and it's a mess. Can the author stop being so ex-person? There are so many holes left unfilled. What on earth is going on? [Crack][Crack][Crack]. The writing of this article is also a bit novice. I have never seen an apocalyptic article that I like, so I insisted on reading it regardless of the few collections and comments. The setting was quite good at the beginning, but it ended up being unfinished after I kept chasing you? ? Are you, the author, worthy of your readers? ? ? I'll cheat on you[666][666][666]
The front looks great, but the back is so fast that the plants don't even appear. However, players still spread flowers, and overall it looks good.
I'm off topic, what about plants, that's all? I haven't written a few in total.
It sucks? What's going on with that non-human in front? The apocalypse is over, but how did it come about? Is it really caused by the system? Gong was calculated, so he was just going to take Shou back? How can the apocalypse end? There are several other continents besides China and Asia! There are also the origins of the system, the origins of the plants brought by the system, and how long it will take for the hometown to be attacked? If it takes a long time, can the affected relatives live longer? Is this series of questions a mystery? You can leave a lot of typos in the whole text without correcting it, and you can guess what it is anyway, but it is really intolerable that you end it halfway through and leave a lot of holes in it before trying to complete it! ! ! ! ! ! Even if there is an extra chapter, unless you explain everything clearly, I will definitely give it one star and leave a negative review!
No, is this the end? What about Sang Nian in front? That description is obviously not human, why is it missing?
When the plants are upgraded in the early stage, they still look good. However, in the later stages of development, the opportunities for the plants in the base to appear have dropped sharply, and the focus has shifted a bit.
Although the hole is not completely filled, it looks good! Especially the emotional line
Why haven't you updated more extras?
