Luo Chen used to be bored, so he copied most of the furniture. He naturally tried out all the appliances, so making an air conditioner was a piece of cake for him.

After these few experiments, Luo Chen roughly grasped the amount of Honkai energy he could use. As long as he kept it within that range, the Imaginary Tree couldn't kick him.

Air conditioning was installed in every room of the villa, and Luo Chen connected a generator to the main power switch outside the villa to ensure basic electricity supply.

Back in the kitchen, Luo Chen took off the trench coat he had been wearing for a long time, put on a shirt and an apron, and started cooking.

Before long, Luo Chen had prepared a table full of delicious dishes. He waved to the five people who were whispering in the living room, telling them to wash their hands and prepare to eat.

"Wow! Finally, we can eat fresh food!"

Agata said she was getting tired of canned food, and the main problem was that the girls couldn't start a fire and could only eat cold food, which had been making them feel unwell these past few days.

"I'm sorry you've had to eat canned food for so many days. But don't worry, it won't happen again."

“Brother Luo Chen, there’s no need to apologize. It’s really nothing. When we were homeless, we ate much worse food than this.”

Bella shook her little head, her eyes shining as she looked at the food on the table. Since she started wandering, she had basically been eating heated instant food, and this was the first time she had such a sumptuous meal.

"You guys eat quickly, don't let the food get cold."

"it is good."

The five people were initially quite reserved, but as Xilin became more and more unrestrained, the other four gradually loosened up as well, and the dining table became increasingly lively.

Luo Chen smiled, the familiar scene bringing his thoughts back to St. Freya, back to that dormitory filled with laughter. Back then, he always enjoyed bickering with Kiana, while Mei and Yuno would each try to mediate, and Theresa and Himeko would watch their energetic antics with great interest.

"At this point in time... Mei, I've already had Bianca and Yuno born, but Yume doesn't seem to have been born yet..."

Luo Chen propped his head up with one hand, his fingers rhythmically tapping the table as he recalled the birth times of each person.

"Speaking of which, Dad... doesn't seem to have arrived at the Babylon Laboratory yet, right?"

Thinking of his adoptive father, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel a little down. His father had passed away before he could remember, and most of the information about his father came from his own research or from elders like Siegfried.

"Brother Luo Chen, what are you thinking about?"

Xilin moved her chair a little closer to Luo Chen and saw that he was frowning. She placed her warm little hand on the back of Luo Chen's hand.

"It's nothing, I just thought of my dad."

"Luo Chen's father?"

Xilin blinked, wanting to know what kind of person Luo Chen's father was, but Luo Chen was in a bad mood at the moment, so he didn't ask.

"Ask whatever you want."

"How did Brother Luo Chen know I was going to ask a question?"

"You little idiot, your expression was so clear, it would be strange if I didn't recognize it."

"You are the stupid one."

Xilin glared at Luo Chen angrily, but after a while she laughed and told him what she had just thought.

"What kind of person is my dad? To be honest, I don't really know. Many people call him a hero, but my uncles and aunts call him a fool. I can't see him clearly, and I can't understand him."

"Why?"

Xilin tried hard to understand what Luo Chen was saying, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still couldn't figure it out, so she decided to give up.

"My father has passed away."

The five people listening to Luo Chen's speech fell silent. Xi Lin regretted asking the question. It was obviously Luo Chen's sore spot. Why was she so curious?

"Alright, all of that is in the past."

Luo Chen composed himself and stroked each of the five girls' heads to reassure them that he wasn't that fragile.

"You guys go play in the living room first, I'll go wash the dishes."

"Brother Luo Chen, I'll help you."

Galina reached out to help Luo Chen, but Luo Chen snatched the bowl from her hand, preventing her from helping.

"No need, you guys go have fun."

Luo Chen ushered the five people to the living room, tidied everything up by himself, and nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that his skills had not become rusty.

The five people sat in a row on the sofa in the living room. This was not St. Freya, so there were no games to play. Their daily life consisted of chatting and playing in the snow.

"It's a bit of a problem that there are no entertainment options in this godforsaken place."

After basic living needs are met, entertainment becomes the most important thing for people. But living in this godforsaken place, entertainment options are practically nonexistent. Although Luo Chen isn't addicted to the internet, he would be bored to death if he didn't touch games for a week.

"Cilin, what do you usually do when you have free time?"

Luo Chen had nothing to do, so he decided to ask Xilin; maybe she could offer some advice.

"We usually just chat, and the rest of the time we just tidy up the house."

Luo Chen understood; in short, there was none. But that made sense, since even if there were game consoles here, there was no internet, and he didn't have the skill to play games manually, and he hadn't copied those things before.

"Looks like hunting will be my only option when I have nothing else to do."

Luo Chen thought about planting some crops in his spare time, but in a cold place like Siberia, only potatoes could be grown, and they wouldn't survive in the current temperature, so he decisively gave up the idea.

"If I build a greenhouse, I should be able to grow it, right?"

Luo Chen made full use of the traditional skills of the people of Shenzhou. If the natural environment couldn't work, he would do it artificially. He refused to believe that he couldn't farm the land with his intelligence.

'Okay, I'll do it tomorrow.'

……

"Yes, it finally worked!"

After trying for a week, Luo Chen finally managed to cultivate a field suitable for planting and successfully planted the seeds he had found in the abandoned village.

For the past week, Luo Chen has spent almost all of his free time on this. In order to acquire this piece of land, he has used almost all of his available powers, allowing him to once again experience the convenience of the Herrscher powers.

"If the Honkai Will saw me using Herrscher powers to farm, it would probably be furious."

Luo Chen squatted on the ground, observing the seeds. According to the time, it was not the season for planting, but Luo Chen was just too bored.

As we all know, when people get bored, all sorts of strange ideas pop into their heads, and farming in the dead of winter is one of them.

Luo Chen checked the seeds again and found there was nothing wrong with them, feeling relieved that his efforts over the past few days had finally paid off.

"It seems we're almost out of ingredients; we should go and get another batch."

They said they were going to buy goods, but in reality they were going to hunt or plunder abandoned villages. Luo Chen felt like he was playing a video game and inexplicably missed the commercial street next to St. Freya.

"Brother Luo Chen, why are you back so soon today?"

When Luo Chen returned to the villa, Aurora greeted him. Usually, Luo Chen would still be busy farming at this time, but he suddenly came back today, so he must have something to do.

"Tell the others that we're almost out of food at home, and I'm going to go and get some more."

While the four girls, including Xilin, were playing upstairs, only Aurora was downstairs. Luo Chen found this strange and specifically asked Aurora what was going on.

"We're out of paint, and I'm about to go find my brother."

Aurora explained that a few days ago, Luo Chen had specially prepared paintbrushes and paints to keep them entertained, so that they would have something to do in their spare time.

"That's perfect, I'll give you the things."

Luo Chen produced a palette of paints, handed it to Aurora, gave her a few more instructions, and then went out to hunt in the nearest forest.

Chapter 215 I'm eating, eating, eating

Luo Chen arrived at the edge of the forest and continued forward along the route he had taken a few days ago, sensing the surrounding area.

"Strange, why is there a Honkai energy reaction up ahead?"

Luo Chen looked ahead and, through his perception just now, he discovered that there seemed to be a Honkai energy reaction deep in the forest. The intensity of that reaction was likely from several newly born Honkai Beasts.

"A collapse has actually occurred here."

After walking a while further, the concentration of Honkai energy in the surrounding air increased significantly, indicating that a Honkai event had just occurred here.

Luo Chen took out the Jizo Soul and slowly moved towards the core area where the Honkai had occurred. Three slightly larger Honkai Beasts came into his view.

The three Honkai Beasts were lying motionless in the woods, as if they were sleeping, and did not seem to pose any threat.

The Jizo-Mitama transformed into a bow and arrow. Luo Chen drew the bow and aimed at the nearest Honkai Beast, piercing its head with a single arrow. The Honkai energy attached to the arrow burned its body, and before it could even move, it was destroyed by Luo Chen.

The remaining two noticed Luo Chen's presence and were shot dead by him as soon as they straightened up. The three Honkai Beasts were burned to ashes by the flames, leaving only three Honkai Crystals and a huge fire on the spot.

After extinguishing the fire with ice, Luo Chen picked up the Honkai Crystals from the ground. These three crystals looked a little smaller than normal, probably because the Honkai Beasts here had just left the starting village when they were intercepted by him, the Great Demon King.

For some reason, Luo Chen subconsciously swallowed as he looked at the Honkai Crystal in his hand, feeling that it might taste good.

I took a bite of one of the Honkai Crystals and felt a cool sensation in my mouth. The taste was a bit like lemon-flavored mint, but the texture was indescribable.

"Why does this taste like this? I thought it would be as awful as a Honkai Beast."

Luo Chen popped the remaining half into his mouth and chewed it like candy. He then put away the other two and continued deeper into the cave.

"The Honkai just happened, and almost all the animals around here are dead. Where am I supposed to find them?"

Luo Chen wandered around the forest for more than half an hour without finding a single animal. Frustrated, he kicked a tree, and all the snow on the leaves fell on him.

"What the hell!"

Luo Chen brushed the snow off his body and threw another punch at the tree, dodging the falling snowflakes as he dodged.

"Let's look somewhere else."
