The Rebirth of the Last Days and Return to [Fang] Hao

T/N: I didn’t know RLDRFH would have chapters ~4k… chapter 137 is split into 2 releases because of this.

 

Stepping into the space, Fang Hao was not on the second floor bedroom but nestled on the sofa on the first floor. He was wrapped in a blanket taken from the underground storage. Seeing him return, he quickly asked, “Is everything stored?”

“En, it’s all in. Let’s have breakfast first.”

There are many different meals Fang Hao made in advance. The two of them chose some at random and sat on the sofa to have breakfast. However, Fang Hao didn’t put his thoughts on breakfast. Instead, he asked He Zizhong where he stored the jewelry. As soon as the two of them finished eating, he dragged him into the basement floor to get those jewels.

There are not many jewels that not absorbed by the space this time. This time they gained too much in the urban area, and they have collected a lot of precious gold, silver, and gems. Most were directly absorbed by the space, but a small part remained.

Those pearls, corals, gold and silver were not absorbed by the space, while only a small portion of the jade and gems remained.

Fang Hao’s goal are these things.

The two of them took these unabsorbed things in their hands and tried them one by one. He Zizhong tried a ruby ​​in his hand again, but didn’t feel any reaction. Instead, Fang Hao suddenly uttered a “huh?” after tossing for a long time.

“What? Is there a space inside?”

Fang Hao seemed to be stunned, and looked at He Zizhong: “I don’t know… It feels a little weird.”

“Strange?” He Zizhong took the drop-shaped emerald green jade pendant, and tried again. Like when experimenting with Le Tian’s jade pendant, he used mental power to “communicate” with it, but felt a kind of resistance.

“What’s going on?”

The two of them looked at each other and at the weird jade pendant with some doubts. Is it necessary to shed blood to recognize a master?

“Is the… the reason because we are in the space?” Fang Hao suddenly raised another possibility, which made He Zizhong’s eyes brighten.

It’s quite possible!

Perhaps the spaces are mutually exclusive? Or maybe there is any weird rule that prevents overlapping between the two? Anyway, when He Zizhong took Fang Hao’s hand and flashed back outside to try again, he found that there was a space in this pendant!

The light gray space felt darker than the space that Le Tian had discovered before, and it was also different from the space on the lower storage of the Void Space.

It’s just that the volume of this space is not big. it’s nearly one-third smaller than Le Tian’s space, and less than a football field. But when the two of them put in a steaming meal that they took out from their own space, they looked at the instantaneously solidified steam inside, and they were suddenly surprised. The basement level of this space is like their bracelet’s1Recall that HZZ’s Void Space used to be a bracelet, and then became a mole/imprint thing after upgrading once. space – it can keep items in their original state!

Then he took one of the crystal nuclei from the car and threw it in. They were completely relieved when they saw the crystal nucleus remain intact.

“Fortunately, it doesn’t absorb crystal nuclei!” Fang Hao smiled and raised the jade pendant. “In the future, our car can be thrown directly in here!”

“We still have to test and see if we take things in this space in, will our space force it to ‘spit out’ the crystal nuclei inside?” He Zizhong smiled as he reminded him. Why is Fang Hao so anxious to find another space? The reason is to store these crystal nuclei.

Fang Hao rushed into the space to do the experiment, leaving He Zizhong waiting for him in the car.

Whether the two were out on a task or staying in the base, the most worrying thing was the problem of the crystal nuclei placed outside. Once these things are brought in, they will be forcibly expropriated by He Zizhong’s space, and there is no room for negotiation. Although the two are very good at fighting, these things can’t all be absorbed by the space. They also need to keep some too.

If this jade pendant won’t conflict with Void Space, it would be good.

“No problem!” After three or five seconds of effort, Fang Hao flashed out again, his eyes bright with excitement. “Now we can take our car in too!”

Putting the car in the jade pendant, the couple returned to the space. They have nothing left outside, and no longer need to worry about any accidents. When they are about to go out, they only need to send Tuanzi out to see the situation first.

Back to the space again, the couple who had free time decided to organize the things in the space.

The first thing to focus on is the underground space. Although the underground storage is a bit larger, the increase in size is not too large. The two of them made a rough observation before confirming that the land area of ​​the underground space was the same as that of the surface farmland.

The area of ​​flat land in the space is about 20 acres. Most of the land revealed this time are the mountains and the ocean area.

The underground space is also almost 20 acres. They’re unable to measure exact size too accurately.

The mountains are now planted, high and low, with flowering trees of various colors. The newly-appeared farmland is empty, waiting for the pair of husbands to slowly plan.

What surprised them the most was-

“Birds…”

“Seabirds.”

“Where did they come from? We didn’t buy these before.”

The two stood on the edge of the white sandy beach dotted with tall coconut trees in amazement. In front of them, flying above the blue sea were several animals that were obviously seabirds. They hovered over the sea, swooping down from time to time, to catch fish.

He Zizhong only bought some pigeons, chickens, ducks and quails, for meat. But these things—except for pigeons, can’t fly, okay?!

Not to mention that these animals with slender bodies and very long mouths don’t look like a mutant breeds of pigeons, okay?

“Could it be that… these seabirds are also like this bamboo building and boat. They were originally in this space?” Fang Hao asked uncertainly.

“Or…Is this place gradually becoming more like a real world? Or is it that this place was originally a real world, but it was sealed for some reason?” He Zizhong also had no idea at all.

The newly-emerged species left the two of them completely confused. While they were in a daze, something that suddenly “drilled” in successfully diverted the pairs attention – Tuanzi!

Tuanzi, who had initially possessed wisdom and was finally able to communicate with people, was caught by two unscrupulous parents. Suddenly, it wants to go back and sleep for another 2-3 days…

“Do you know what this space was like before??”

Twist, twist, shake head, shake head.

“Do you know where the birds came from?”

Tuanzi looked suspiciously over the sea, then turned its “face” back. Blinking at the two of them, it twisted, twisted, and shook its head twice more.

“Then do you know what this space will become in the end?”

Tuanzi tilted its head and blinked with its big watery eyes. Twist, twist, shake head, shake head.

One of the two fell backwards weakly and lay directly on the beach, while the other also leaned helplessly on the shoulders of He Zizhong who was lying on the ground. “Then what do you know?”

“Hungry… I still have to eat green jelly beans.” Don’t know where Tuanzi’s knowledge came from, calling those crystal nuclei jelly beans.

Yes, it seems that although its intelligence has increased a lot and it can communicate with them better, its intelligence and thinking are no more than the level of preschool children.

Fortunately, although Tuanzi’s IQ is a bit worrying, it can’t withstand Fang Hao’s patience. Under mama’s unscrupulous inducement, Tuanzi demonstrated its skills after upgrading. It can hardly be seen after this upgrade (the couple can hardly see it), and it’s able to fly faster and higher. Plus, they confirmed it has a good body that is impenetrable and invulnerable to water and fire. Don’t judge its thin layer of skin that looks like it can be broken with a single poke. In fact, nothing can pierce this layer, and there is absolutely no way for abilities to harm it.

In the end, the couple also accidentally discovered another new use use for Tuanzi – diving.

This guy didn’t need to breathe at all, and wouldn’t be affected in any way when it went into the sea. The two of them seriously wondered whether this little thing with no nose could directly use its skin to break down the surrounding elements and extract oxygen from it?

But in any case, the speed at which Tuanzi can enter the water and swim is amazing. Although it is not very useful now, by letting it go somewhere where there are fish, and take He Zizhong and Fang Hao over, they can directly go in the deep sea to catch fish and dig shells.

But it’s not ideal to rest now. Letting Tuanzi enter the sea is not to catch seafood. Because unexpected seabirds appeared in the sky, the couple suspected that other creatures might also appear in the sea. After all, they can observe animals on land, but need to wait for Tuanzi to bring back news of the ocean.

One piece of news is that there are basically no special animals in the bay surrounded by the crescent mountain ridge. Although most varieties are similar to the seafood that the couple bought, there are still differences. For example, there are more coral reefs, and more colorful purely ornamental fish and shrimps.

But outside the crater, near the island, it’s quite different.

All kinds of fishes, known and unknown, wander nearby, but they did not invade the bay. Tuanzi also saw some large fish from a distance, such as things seen in the seafood market and when they went diving. Even suspected creatures, like dolphin breeds they never saw before, were spotted.

But fortunately, those creatures seem to avoid the island, and never swam close to the bay.

Another piece of news that left them wondering whether it was good or bad – all kinds of seaweed and shells were climbing on the cliffs and rocks outside of the island. If they can get some back, it will definitely enrich their dining tables. But in the same way, they can’t tell if there will be creatures that can threaten them, so it’s better to ignore it for the time being.

“Specifically, let’s watch it slowly when we return to the base to rest.” He Zizhong told Tuanzi. to return home and stop wandering outside. No matter how far away it went, there is still a fog barrier, which shows that this is not the final form of this space. It’s just that the more distant places are not useful for the two of them right now, and there isn’t as urgent of a need to grab crystal nuclei to continue upgrading the space.

“En, even if we upgrade it to the end, it’ll be another world in the space at most.” Fang Hao smiled and helped He Zizhong refasten the button on his neckline.

“Another world… I don’t know if there are any human beings like us.” He Zizhong also laughed and rubbed his hair. From the bottom of his heart, the space remaining their own little secret is better. Another world, on the contrary, is only a kind of unexplainable worry.

The two packed up, and Tuanzi teleported to their side, still smelling of salty seawater.

Fang Hao grabbed Tuanzi and went to the bathroom to rinse it. Three people quietly flashed out of the space and returned to the empty ground floor of the big shopping mall that they had been staying for more than five days.

He Zizhong gave Fang Hao the jade pendant space to take care of. After taking out the car, the couple embarked on a journey back to the base.

 

Fang Hao gets his own space now.
