Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

"I’m starving to death! Get me something to eat! I’m going to take a shower first!"

Xia Country, Qing City.

Nanshan Villa District, Villa 42.

After clearing out the Japanese at Reijing Bay, Shen Fei collected all the miscellaneous dropped items and used his Divine Artifact’s Long-range Teleportation to return home instantly. Having been trapped for three days, he was famished and reeked. He quickly called out to his mother before diving into the bathroom.

Speaking of the Divine Artifact’s ability, Shen Fei was incredibly excited about the Long-range Teleportation. Originally, the Divine Artifact fragment he possessed only had one use of Long-range Teleportation left. According to his plan, it would be unusable after teleporting him back to Qing City. But he hadn’t expected that once all the pieces of the Divine Artifact fused, the six teleportation charges would be replenished. The complete Divine Artifact had its Long-range Teleportation cooldown reset. This thrilled Shen Fei, who had been lamenting that he wouldn’t be able to teleport long distances again after this trip.

"Son!"

"Brother!"

Shen Fei teleported home, said a single sentence, and disappeared into the bathroom. This made his family, who hadn’t seen him in three days, all a little emotional. It was just past 11:00 PM, and the whole family had been waiting for the fifth ability inheritance of the second project. They hadn’t expected Shen Fei to return at this time.

"I’ll go make dinner!"

The family, including Li Xiaohong, stood stunned for a moment. Hearing the sound of water running from the bathroom, Mrs. Shen finally scrambled to her feet to go cook. Due to the apocalypse, the Shen Family’s hired cook had long since left. Currently, Mrs. Shen cooked with Shen Yue and Xiaohong.

He’s finally back!

Seeing his son return, Father Shen, who had been under immense pressure for the past three days, let out a long sigh of relief. Knowing of his son Shen Fei’s abilities and having given him plenty of golden chess pieces before he left, Father Shen wasn’t too worried about his safety. He was mainly just exhausted.

The ordinary citizens of Qing City had only noticed, strangely, that a large patch of fog had appeared in the suburbs over the last three days. But the upper echelons of the Qing City Tourism Management Office were well aware that Shen Fei had not only captured [Peter’s Castle], but had also led a group from the Heaven-Reaching Gang to capture an additional eight cities, including one large and two medium-sized cities.

With Shen Fei gone on business, many people had instinctively turned to Father Shen with their problems over the past three days. Originally, Father Shen, who had once managed a factory with several thousand people, thought he would handle such matters with ease. But he never expected that with the arrival of the new world, where game abilities were being inherited amid an apocalypse, his old experience wasn’t quite working anymore. There were many things he just couldn’t manage properly. After struggling to hold on for three days, Father Shen had delayed what he could and delegated what he could. Now that his son was finally back, Father Shen was visibly thrilled. He could finally be free from having to deal with all sorts of gamified issues.

SPLASH. SPLASH. SPLASH.

While Shen Fei was showering, Father Shen quickly sent out messages, summoning Li Yunlong, Sun Yu, and Gun’Er. He didn’t call too many people. After all, his son had just gotten back and needed to rest and recuperate. Although people like Wang Dapang and Zhang Qiqiang also had various matters to discuss, he only called the few who were considered the most core members.

"Uncle!"

To Father Shen’s surprise, just as he sent the message, Sun Yu was already at the door. Obviously, Shen Fei had already contacted Sun Yu when he returned and told him to come over.

"Quick! Come in, have a seat!" Father Shen quickly welcomed him.

Many people had already moved into the Neutral City, and the members of the Heaven-Reaching Gang and their families had moved into the other eight cities. However, after discussing it, Father Shen and Mrs. Shen decided not to move into the Neutral City. Their old house still felt more familiar.

Currently, with a ring of Neutral Cities guarding the perimeter, monsters no longer spawned randomly within Qing City’s urban area. Furthermore, in the city center, outside the forbidden zone where the Heaven-Reaching Tower was sealed, Sun Yu had 512 Defense Towers active 24/7. Living in Qing City’s urban area was now very safe. The Shen Family, for the time being, had not moved. And so, Uncle Sun and Sun Yu hadn’t moved either, still living in the residential complex next door. That’s why Sun Yu had arrived so quickly.

"Delicious! How can it be this delicious! The best meal is definitely the one you eat when you’re starving!"

「Half an hour later.」

Shen Fei, having finished his shower, was now eating and drinking heartily. After being starved for three days under the influence of the Divine Bottle, he found the food exceptionally fragrant and tasty.

Around Shen Fei, a circle of people sat watching him eat. Among them were family members like Father Shen, Mrs. Shen, Shen Yue, Li Xiaohong, and Sun Yu, as well as Li Yunlong from the Tourism Management Office and Gun’Er from the Heaven-Reaching Gang.

"This grain was grown on the land I inherited from the game! It’s delicious, isn’t it!? Everyone says it has a unique flavor!" Mrs. Shen replied happily, watching her son eat with such relish.

With the second set of abilities beginning to be inherited and the support from the Neutral City, Mrs. Shen had been overjoyed these past few days. She had gone to a small, agricultural city named [Rice Flavor Village] that Shen Fei had captured. There, she placed the golden land she had inherited onto the city’s farmland. Then, she cast skills like the "Rain Transformation Skill," "Insect Extermination Skill," "Yield Enhancement Technique," and "Accelerated Growth Technique."

In just three days, Mrs. Shen had grown a crop of rice.

Everyone who tasted the rice Mrs. Shen grew said it was exceptionally fragrant—more fragrant than Wuchang rice or Thai jasmine rice. There were even a few players who had inherited chef abilities from cooking games.
