Whole School Transmigrated: I Have 3 Daily Intel

[Card Types: Building Card · Incubator]

[Rating: B-Level]

[Description: Upon use, you can build a 3-square-meter incubator. It automatically adjusts to the optimal incubation temperature for different types of eggs, accelerating incubation by five times.]

"Incubator Card?"

Chen Chong read the Card’s information and sank into thought.

’A fivefold incubation speed bonus?’

This meant that poultry eggs that normally took about a month to hatch would only need about six days in the incubator.

’This kind of incubation bonus is simply terrifying.’

’In the future, if the poultry I raise lay eggs, I can put them in here to hatch. Wouldn’t that mean I could quickly get a new batch of young poultry to raise?’

’On the surface, the incubator looks like an ordinary hatching tool that just shortens incubation time, but in reality, it could drastically expand my poultry stock in a short period.’

’Its potential is enormous.’

’As expected, there are no useless B-Level Cards.’

Besides this, another thought popped into Chen Chong’s mind.

’Just using the incubator for poultry eggs seems like a waste of its full potential.’

’After all, the wild ducks haven’t even paired up yet. It’ll be a long time before they lay eggs and I can use the incubator.’

’And the intel happened to mention that the Stone Claw Eagles are incubating eggs in their nest.’

’Maybe...’

’I could steal a Stone Claw Eagle egg and try to hatch it?’

"Brother Chong, what are you thinking about?" Xu Jun had been staring at him for a while and couldn’t hold back any longer.

"Nothing. Let’s go, we’re heading back."

Chen Chong’s train of thought was interrupted. After stuffing the Card into his bag, he picked up the fish box and prepared to return to the school...

The three of them spent half an hour walking to the side gate.

Before they even went inside, they saw four or five people sitting by the entrance. One of them was lying on the ground, motionless.

One look at their wretched, mud-caked appearances was enough to tell they had run into trouble in the jungle.

"Hey guys, what happened to you?" Xu Jun asked curiously as they passed by.

"Poison wasps. We ran into poison wasps," a girl replied, crying. A trace of terror still lingered on her face.

’Poison wasps?’

Chen Chong and Xu Jun frowned slightly.

It seemed they had heard Sima mention that name during his speech, but they had never encountered them themselves.

As they got closer, the two of them got a clear look at the condition of the young man on the ground.

His neck was covered in dense, fist-sized swellings, and at the tip of each one was a finger-sized barb.

The young man’s face was covered in black lines, as if he were poisoned.

His open eyes had long since lost their light...

"Bro, there’s a grove of low trees to the north. Remember, whatever you do, don’t go in there. There are fist-sized poison wasps, and they’ll swarm you if you get too close."

"The four of us got lucky. We managed to escape by jumping into a mud pit, but Gangzi was too slow, and..."

Another man, who was wearing a hat, had a look of deep sorrow on his face.

"Thanks for the warning, man. We’ll remember that."

"Sorry for your loss..."

After offering a few words of comfort, the three of them entered the school.

Aside from taking the warning to heart, the two of them weren’t particularly moved by the sight of the dead student.

It wasn’t that they were heartless, but mainly that people had been dying every day since they transmigrated.

Some were killed by Extraordinary Creatures or wild beasts, some were poisoned by eating the wrong food, and there were even those who starved to death or committed suicide because they couldn’t handle the current environment...

Besides the ones they could see, people were losing their lives every day in unnoticed corners.

The world after transmigration was just that cruel. If you went out, you faced risks; if you didn’t go out, you had no food.

In just six short days, they had already gotten used to it...

...

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—

Inside, Jia Wen, holding a large broadsword, checked the peephole to see who it was before opening the door.

"My Lord, Master, you’ve returned?"

"We’re back. How’d it go today?" Xu Jun asked casually as he put down his bag.

"My Lord and Master should see for yourselves," Jia Wen said with a smile.

"Why so mysterious?"

Xu Jun and Chen Chong exchanged a glance and walked towards the living room.

The apartment’s dimensions were a far cry from what they once were; it was much larger than a simple three-bedroom flat.

After Xu Jun used several Vacant Land Cards, the living room alone was over a hundred square meters.

It was now a short walk from the front door to the kitchen at the far end.

"Brother Chong, Brother Jun, Brother Biao."

Shen Xinrou was squatting in front of the kitchen door, fiddling with something. When she saw the three of them come in, she smiled and greeted each of them by name.

Since their casual chat last night, she had gotten to know them much better, and her shy personality had opened up a bit.

Originally, she had wanted to call Chen Chong "Captain," but he had refused, saying there was no need to be so formal.

In the end, she followed Xu Jun’s lead and started calling him "Brother Chong."

She did the same for Xu Jun, Wang Biao, and Jia Wen, adding "Brother" after their names.

Shen Xinrou was the youngest of the five, so addressing them this way was perfectly reasonable.

Wang Biao and Jia Wen were fine with it, simply responding with a smile.

Xu Jun was a different story. He had been ecstatic last night, exclaiming that he was finally one of the "Brothers."

Even if he wasn’t the number one brother, he was still the number two brother on the team!

He couldn’t help but feel a secret thrill at the thought that the more people joined in the future, the more people would call him that.

To satisfy his vanity, he even had Shen Xinrou say it a few more times for him to hear.

Shen Xinrou was also obedient; when Xu Jun asked her to say it, she did, calling out to him a bit naively.

One of them called out, "Brother Jun, Brother Jun," while the other answered, "Yeah, yeah, yeah!"

The scene left Chen Chong speechless. He seriously suspected there was something wrong with his brother’s brain...

...

"What’s this stuff?"

Chen Chong got closer and saw a pile of weeds and dry twigs on the floor.

"Did you gather this grass specifically for the wild rabbit we brought back?" Xu Jun asked, leaning in.

Shen Xinrou quickly shook her head. "This isn’t grass—well, it is grass, but it’s medicinal herbs."

"Medicinal herbs?" Chen Chong raised an eyebrow. "You went out in the rain today and found this many?"

Shen Xinrou said, "It’s fine. I went out with an umbrella. These herbs are all common ones from the medical books. I recognize them all, so I picked some to have on hand."

"These few can treat common colds and fevers, these ones are for things like diarrhea and stomachaches, and these here, for scrapes and sprains, you can crush them into a juice and apply it as a poultice to help with recovery and prevent infection."

"Scrapes?" Xu Jun quickly pulled up his pant leg. "I’ve got a scrape right here! It’s been hurting for a while. Can you treat it?"

There was a bloody scratch on Xu Jun’s leg. It looked a bit shocking, but in reality, it wasn’t serious—just a graze that had broken the skin.

He had gotten it when he accidentally scraped himself by the creek while dodging the giant python. Chen Chong had a small one on his hand too, but it wasn’t as bad as Xu Jun’s.

"Oh, oh, yes. I’ll grind up some herbs for you right away."

Shen Xinrou quickly picked out a few herbs and immediately started grinding them in a bowl with a stone.

"You’re working too hard. You didn’t have to go out picking in the rain. You could have just gone to the trading market with Jia Wen," Chen Chong said casually.

Jia Wen walked over from the side, fanning himself with his feathered fan. He spoke in a tone that was half-complaint, half-praise:

"My Lord, Xinrou is quite a remarkable woman. Today, she not only went to the trading market to look for supplies and went out to pick herbs, but she also inquired about potted plants and explored the surrounding area."

"I told her to take a break, but she told me to rest instead. This whole day has left me completely exhausted. Even I can barely keep up; I have no idea how she managed to persist."

Chen Chong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Looking at Shen Xinrou squatting on the ground, silently and single-mindedly grinding herbs, he couldn’t help but feel exasperated.

’He knew why Shen Xinrou was pushing herself so hard.’

’It was most likely because she had just joined his team. Being kind and naive, she felt she had to do more to prove her worth.’

’This kind of down-to-earth, hard-working personality was a good thing, but she was taking it a bit too far...’
