102: Chapter 102 A New Planet, Squirrel Youyou

"Where is this?" Opening his eyes hazily, Zhao Feng looked at the azure sky and the steep mountains that resembled walls, unable to help but ask this question.

His head felt a bit dizzy, and memories kept flashing through his mind.

The battle to subdue demons on Planet of the Dead, the successful planting of the planet tree, and the automatic selection of the System...

Zhao Feng looked at the flashing System task somewhat strangely.

"Task Name: Single Dog's Plan to Find a Partner"

"Task Objective: Before planting the planet tree, successfully gain the favor of one or more females, and then become partners."

"Task Reward: One or more partners, one mysterious treasure chest."

"Is the System pitying me?" Zhao Feng smiled bitterly. The previous mysterious treasure chest had already been opened by default by the System, and he had obtained something strange—a Planet Design Module.

Planet Design Module: An Intermediate additional module of the main System that can run independently. It can design planets according to the host's needs and simulate their operation, possessing scanning, designing, calculating, simulating, and materializing functions.

The designing, calculating, simulating, and materializing functions of this module are currently displayed in gray, indicating they are unavailable. However, the scanning function is usable.

Zhao Feng clicked with his intent, and then heard the System's prompt:

"Do you wish to spend 100 transformation points to scan the current planet?"

Zhao Feng glanced at his current transformation points, which were a lovely 0. "Do not execute!"

And after completing the modification of Planet of the Dead, he had obtained the World Treasure Chest for modifying planets.

This World Treasure Chest was an orange box, seemingly made of a peculiar orange metal. It had a metallic luster on the surface and looked very beautiful.

"Do you wish to open the World Treasure Chest?"

"Open!"

The treasure chest disappeared in a burst of light, and immediately, an object appeared where the chest had been.

This was a lifelike snake-shaped band of light composed of strange symbols. This snake-shaped band of light kept twisting and coiling as if it were a living creature, and the symbols on its body emitted flickering light. Looking closely, it seemed to contain mountains, rivers, lakes, and all things in the stars, and it also seemed to be countless calculation formulas, making one feel awestruck at first glance.

"Obtained System core ability, main System restriction removed."

"It's actually a core ability, and what's even more gratifying is that the System's restriction has actually disappeared. This is fantastic!" Zhao Feng was overjoyed.

He focused his intent on it, and the System had already provided an introduction:

"Terrain Modification Ability, one of the System's core abilities. You can modify the terrain at will within the scanning range of your Mental Energy (Note: Cannot violate basic laws of physics)."

"Do you wish to use it?"

"Yes." Nonsense, why would he keep such a good thing without using it?

The snake-shaped band of light suddenly lunged towards him in his mind, then turned into countless symbols and entered Zhao Feng's body.

There was no unpleasant feeling at all. Zhao Feng only felt a swelling in his brain, and then he gained a lot of knowledge and abilities he had not previously mastered.

He casually pointed to the front, and the ground in front of him suddenly turned into a pool of clear spring water. His Heavenly Eye could reach about ten meters underground, so this spring water was naturally only ten meters deep, not a millimeter more. However, because the ground here was entirely rock, it was just a pool of stagnant water.

The spring water in front of him was very clear, looking like a deep well with a diameter of five meters, exactly as Zhao Feng had intended.

"What a great ability indeed!" Zhao Feng sighed inwardly.

"Woof!" There was a sudden, extremely faint sound of wind behind him.

A warning sign suddenly arose in Zhao Feng's heart. His figure flashed, dodging a yellow shadow.

After the yellow shadow missed its target, it did not attack hastily. Instead, it stared at Zhao Feng, baring its fangs and making threatening sounds.

It turned out to be a wolf.

This wolf was shorter than an average wolf, with coarse fur and an overall yellow color. If one didn't pay attention, it looked almost like the surrounding yellow soil, so let's call it a Sand Wolf.

The Sand Wolf was alone. Its leg was slightly lame, and it had some bite marks; it seemed to have been injured.

Seeing that it was a bit pitiful, Zhao Feng did not intend to make things difficult for it. He shot two high-temperature shockwaves from his eyes, turning the ground in front of the Sand Wolf into a pile of glass-like crystals, blasting out a basin-sized pit.

The Sand Wolf was startled. After whimpering twice, it looked at the well longingly, turned around, and ran away.

"It looks like this is a wolf with a story."

Zhao Feng smiled and shook his head, paying it no more mind.

Because of the Sand Wolf's sneak attack, Zhao Feng no longer paid attention to the System in his mind, but instead examined the surrounding environment.

This was a huge canyon, surrounded by steep mountains. Judging by the direction of the sun, the mountains in the north were taller.

The canyon seemed to be very short of water, and the surrounding vegetation was sparse. There were very few large trees; only low, thorny plants were stubbornly surviving.

Taking a breath, there was a burning sensation; the air was not only hot but also very dry.

The reaction of his Steel Body was very strong; the solar energy here was sufficient.

He didn't know if this planet, named Yaoling Planet by the System, was like this everywhere.

The area where Zhao Feng was currently located seemed to often have creatures falling to their deaths; there were many white bones on the ground, some human and some from beasts.

Seeing human bones, Zhao Feng let out a sigh of relief. It didn't seem like he had arrived at a wild, primitive planet where he would have to create humans himself.

"If I were settled here, I could get a few skeleton soldiers." This thought flashed quickly through Zhao Feng's mind, and then he could only smile self-deprecatingly. Currently, the System could not let him return to other planets, let alone bring people over.

"But these bones are also resources. Let me collect them first; perhaps they will be useful for modifications later." Zhao Feng stepped forward and collected the remains.

"Ding, obtained one incomplete human skeleton, gained 1 transformation point."

"Ding, obtained one incomplete Sand Wolf skeleton, gained 0.5 transformation points."

...

There were actually transformation points in these remains; it was truly amazing! Zhao Feng was a bit surprised. This place was not like Planet of the Dead. The reason why the Corpse Beasts on Planet of the Dead had transformation points was that during the process of becoming corpses, the Soul had not left. Did these white bones having transformation points mean that there was still a Soul in the remains?

He collected all the white bones, obtaining a total of 25 transformation points.

Because the main System had lifted the restriction, Zhao Feng could use the ability to modify creatures. Since this planet possessed intelligent creatures—humans—acquiring the language was very important.

Language Proficiency: The ability to quickly summarize and acquire language expression methods through the gestures, tone, and text of intelligent creatures. Value: 20 transformation points.

Zhao Feng first used 5 transformation points to modify an animal skeleton into a squirrel, then endowed it with the Language Proficiency skill, and then through skill sharing, he could acquire the language ability of this planet.

"From now on, you will be called Youyou." Zhao Feng gave the little squirrel perched on his shoulder a name.

The little squirrel rolled its round eyes, and a glimmer of intelligence flashed in them; it seemed to understand something.

Looking at the desolate surroundings, Zhao Feng planned to fly into the air to see where there might be signs of human habitation, to first understand this planet before doing anything else.

Who knew that before he could take any action, he felt something falling from the sky at high speed. From his perception, he could sense that this should be a human, and a woman at that.
