The afternoon after resting.
"So ... What does this all mean, Jay?"
Listening to the rhetorical question from Ark's mouth, Jay was dumbfounded. With an annoyed expression on his face, he pointed while saying.
"As you can see, this is our new garden!"
"..."
Ark gazed towards the chaotic-looking backyard. Rather than a garden in his shadow, what he saw was like a place where children were playing mud or maybe playing house.
Really messy!!!
Ark then turned his gaze towards Jay. Looking at the innocent face of her best friend who had absolutely no sense of anything wrong, she was completely at a loss for her words.
Without saying a word, Ark searched and took a hoe. The young man also took a small scythe. After that, he began to move some plants according to their type to a temporary place.
"Hey! At least say something!"
Seeing Ark not protesting at all or angry, Jay instead became depressed. Simple reason. That's because Jay knows, every time Ark doesn't answer and just takes care of a job, it means ...
What he did was really bad! Totally unreliable!
"We're done, Mr. Ark."
Hearing that soft voice, Ark and Jay turned their heads.
There, they see Natasha, Abigail, Nathan, and Nala. Natasha looked beautiful with a somewhat worn sports outfit that accentuated her body shape. Whereas Abigail who previously spoke .. she really looked beautiful when wearing ordinary casual clothes.
White skin clean like snow, long brown hair wavy, two big melons that make the men can not help but look at her. Plus tempramen so soft, she is indeed very beautiful.
Nathan and Nala both inherit their skin and iris. But their hair was similar to Natasha's, black as ink.
Seeing them, Ark nodded.
"Abigail, Nathan, and Nala. Meanwhile, Natasha and Stacy .. You two go outside the house. Outside the walls that surround the house, there are many ornamental flowers. I want you to take everything out."
"Huh?! Isn't this land about an acre? You want us to pull out the flowers ... in a 400-meter-long area?"
"Good, Master!"
Natasha. While Stacy looked happy. Although she was a bit jealous of Abigail and the two children, the girl knew why Ark split the task in such a way. In accordance with their abilities.
"If you don't want to, you can go. Find a place to live and eat by yourself. There are still fifty-nine houses you can use."
Hearing Ark's flat speech, Natasha immediately gritted her teeth. Although reluctant, he still complies.
"I understand."
After seeing the duties of the women and children divided, Jay asked.
"What about me and Darin, Ark?"
"Have Darin finish his training. Tell him to boil some water. Although due to rain water becomes more abundant, but I am not sure the well water as well as before. After all, it's the first rain, maybe not so clean. Just in case, boil the water first. Tell him to boil as much as he can.
Meanwhile ... You'll be looking for firewood."
"Ale???" jay said with a dumbfounded expression.
Meanwhile, the women were confused. They were in an elite residential area. Although there are quite a lot of trees, if cut down, the wood will not be able to be used immediately. While dry wood .. obviously no one will sell it because many kitchen appliances use gas and electricity. Even when Stacy was here, Ark and Jay still had a stock of firewood. So the girl doesn't know either.
Jay had absolutely no idea that the women were curious. He just stared at Ark while saying.
"I don't know if the owner of this estate is alive or dead. But ...
Even if that person were to die and be revived, he would definitely die once again from anger!"
After saying that, Jay left with an annoyed expression.
Of course, what Ark meant by finding firewood was not cutting down trees. Instead, Jay will go to one of the houses that Ark pointed to. Entering the house, he will begin to destroy wooden furniture such as chairs, tables, or beautiful cabinets!
Absolutely outrageous!
After Jay leaves, Ark sees Natasha and Stacy.
"Then we also go, sir!"
Stacy smiled amiably as she pulled Natasha away. Meanwhile, Ark began to hoe. He flipped the ground, making it even more loose. The young man did it quickly and skillfully. He easily made several plots of land ready to be planted in just over half an hour.
At that moment, Abigail and the two children were just watching because Ark did not tell them to help.
Finished making six plots of land ready to be planted, Ark then called Abigail, Nathan, and Nala. The three of them did not understand about agriculture, what Ark did was clearly better than ordinary farmers.
After all, not many people could hoe through six fairly large areas at such speed.
"You just need to copy what I'm doing."
Ark made several holes of the same distance, after which, he picked up one potato seedling. He then buried it, not too deep, but also not too shallow.
"You guys just do it this way. Same for sweet potato seeds."
Ark said in a flat tone. He then started pointing while saying.
"These two squares are for potatoes and these two plots are for sweet potatoes. Do you guys understand?"
Despite knowing that their work was a bit heavy due to its breadth, Abigail and the two children still nodded obediently. I want to help and not complain.
After arranging his third job, Ark left and returned with a container containing pieces of carrots that began to sprout. Besides, he also carried a sack.
Not much to say, Ark began to fill a swath with carrots. In addition, he also started planting corn seeds that Ark and Jay happened to get on the previous trip. It could actually be boiled and consumed, but the young man chose to replant it.
So in addition to chili peppers, tomatoes, fruit trees, and a variety of unique mutated plants grown in rooftop gardens, some plants that can grow quickly and can be used as staple food are grown in the front yard.
In the afternoon, they finally finished planting. Ark had also moved several mutated plants including Silverstar Grass which was now quite numerous. There was a small patch of the plant on the roof.
Looking at Ark who had returned, Nala who was sitting near a strange vines turned her head. The little girl asked.
"Where will it be planted, Mr Ark? Nala will help plant it."
"Don't touch."
Ark immediately said coldly, making the girl startled to the point of almost crying.
"The plant has poisonous spines."
Abigail immediately approached Nala and kept the girl away from the strange vines.
The vines are green with thorns like rose thorns, but have a purple color.
Devil's Vines, that's how the plant is called.
Devil's Vines themselves were also mutated plants similar to Silverstar Grass. Even his class was much higher than Silverstar Grass. Only, their use is different.
Devil's Vines are not for consumption. Instead, the plant would be placed outside the defensive wall. Plants are easy to live and grow. There is a way to grow the plant quickly, which is to bury the zombies in the soil and make the plant absorb nutrients from it.
Yep. Devil's Vines are a type of carnivorous plant. But not the kind of plant as in the magic story where it can swing branches to ensnare the enemy. But like other carnivorous plants, it stays in place. If any creature tried to pass through them, the plants would snare them, dig their skin with thorns and poison them to death.
After that, his prey would fall and become fertilizer for the Devil's Vines.
Although not so rare, Ark felt lucky to be able to find it in the beginning. Thus, he could create a layer of defense ..especially for his small headquarters first.
So if there was a siege of zombies or mutant creatures, they could still survive. At least ... giving Ark and the group more time to retreat.
This made Ark happy and quite concerned with Devil's Vines. He also intends to immediately plant and grow the plant.
Prepare to face danger in the future! Ready umbrellas before it rains!
