Chapter 252: Time Hut And Range Control
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The space was different from before. In addition to the farmland and lively pastures, there was another water source here. The water surface was sparkling and beautiful. When one walked in, they could see the bottom of the lake at a glance.
This clear lake water made Xiaoxiao want to play. She really jumped in without hesitation.
She could swim. She was as agile as a fish after jumping down.
As she played with the water, she asked the space: [What do the two new functions mean?]
The space was also very happy that Master liked its change: [Time Hut, as the name suggests, you can increase and reduce the time flow in the house at will within the current six-fold speed.]
[Range Control. According to the space level, you can choose six target objects to control their actions for a second or choose a target object to control their actions for six seconds.]
Through the limitations of time and targets, Xiaoxiao saw the heaven-defying power of this ability. She asked: [Will I be able to control a target for 10 seconds or 10 targets for a second when I reach level-10 in the future, and so on?]
The space replied: [Yes.] It knew that Master was so smart and would definitely be able to see its potential quickly.
Xiaoxiao started to think about the use of the Time Hut again.
On the surface, this hut only had an additional slow function compared to farmland, but what could slow be used for?
The space did not remind her or urge her. It let her play for a while. She walked into the Time Hut to dry her hair slowly. It explored other usage methods and looked at the level-five mysterious seed that finally appeared.
[The Plain Crown Lotus Cauldron requires soft, breathable, good drainage, and nutritious soil cultivation. It has extremely high requirements for the environment: it likes light, but it can’t withstand the sun; it likes warmth, but it can’t withstand high temperatures and cold; it likes moistness, but it’s afraid of water and floods; it consumes a lot of nutrients for growth and needs to be fertilized. It’s easy to die if the environment is not comfortable.]
Xiaoxiao decided that this thing was only suitable to stay in the space! The outside world was not worthy of it! This flower was even harder to maintain than her!
The space asked again: [Do you want to plant the seeds given by the upgrade today?]
That was a must. How could the six times faster time flow in space not be used?
The space told her: [Then I’ll plant it in the water?]
It seemed to be an aquatic plant.
After finishing her space exploration, Xiaoxiao went to the Time Hut to sleep. Then, she came out full of energy and went straight into the kitchen to prepare tomorrow’s things.
Strictly speaking, today was their first day officially staying in their new house. Of course, tomorrow’s breakfast had to be more sumptuous. She chatted with the space as she handled the ingredients briskly.
[You don’t say. Your Time Hut appeared at an extremely good time. I happen to feel that I don’t have enough time recently.]
At this point, she suddenly paused. A thought flashed across her mind.
This thought was not very clear at first. It was only when she saw the candlelight in Big Brother’s room that she was enlightened. How could she be the only one who did not have enough time? Big Brother had been reading at night and waking up early before dawn these days. He could not sleep enough at all, okay?
However, his parents and second brother had told him not to, her eldest brother still did whatever he wanted. Hence, his dark circles gradually covered half of his face.
Xiaoxiao understood her brother’s thirst for knowledge and eagerness to learn. She really did not know where to start persuading him. Now, what was there to persuade him about? She could cheat for her brother!
As her mind raced, Xiaoxiao thought of the function that had never been used after the space was upgraded last time—replication.
She asked the space: [Can the appearance of the Time Hut be changed? For example, after adding the replication function, it will look like my house?] The space knew that Master had understood. [Master, you’re so smart!]
Xiaoxiao was the one who built the new house. She knew all the structures. She closed her eyes and watched as the originally simple time hut in the space slowly turned into the small courtyard of the Ning Family. She nodded in satisfaction and opened her eyes to knock on her brother’s door.
“Brother, go to the kitchen and have a bowl of soup before revising.”
Ning Ansheng was afraid that his family would stop him from working hard. He had no chance in the past. Now, he wished he could spend all his time with books and make up for all the lost time. He was not afraid of fatigue or hardship. He was only afraid that he would let down his parents, brother, and sister.
Seeing that Xiaoxiao only wanted him to drink soup, Ning Ansheng did not reject her.
While he was out, Xiaoxiao’s gaze swept into the room. The room that belonged to her brother in the space underwent some slight adjustments.
She smiled as she watched her brother finish the soup and eat some snacks. Then, she pulled his sleeve and walked back to the “room” with him. When she pressed her hand on the door, she said to her brother, “If you’re tired from studying, sleep for a while. I’ll call you at dawn. There’s still a lot of time.”
Although Ning Ansheng didn’t know what time it was, he didn’t think that it was too long before dawn. However, his sister was concerned about him, so he didn’t refute her.
After opening the door, Xiaoxiao accompanied him into the house before retreating. At that moment, there was a ripple in the air that was difficult to see with the naked eye. If anyone was around, they would only see her and Ning Ansheng disappear in the blink of an eye.
Using the action of opening the door, Xiaoxiao successfully completed the switch between reality and space and sent her brother into the Time Hut.
Why was she so awesome?!
Ning Ansheng didn’t notice any abnormality. The appearance of the space was adjustable, so Xiaoxiao had changed it to stars that filled the sky. The moonlight was hazy, and he didn’t think about anything else other than wondering if the pages were wrong.
However, slowly, he felt that something was wrong. Why was it still dark after reading a book? Could it be that he had woken up too early tonight?
Then he would listen to his sister and take a nap.
Wait, why wasn’t his sister asleep yet?
He immediately pushed open the door and wanted to go out, but when he saw that the courtyard was dark, it was obvious that there was no one in the kitchen, so he turned back.
Xiaoxiao, who was hiding nearby and experiencing the joy of personally chopping vegetables, heaved a sigh of relief and slowed down the time flow at her brother’s room.
This was a good idea. She had to think of a way to benefit everyone.
Hence, early the next morning, when Ning Ansheng woke up in satisfaction and his dark circles had faded a lot, he heard his sister and second brother say that they wanted to set up a study room at home.
“The learning environment is very important. In the future, let’s buy more books and fill the bookshelves. You and Big Brother can read inside when you’re free. You can accompany each other and encourage each other. Only then can your learning be twice as effective.”
Ning Ansheng agreed wholeheartedly. Second Brother’s studies were like fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. Ning Ansheng wanted to scold him when he saw that.
However, Ning Anhui looked like he was about to cry. He had yet to memorize the multiplication table!
Xiaoxiao continued, “In the future, when your children are born, they can have a good educational atmosphere from a young age.”
Ning Anhui imagined it for a moment. His face turned red and he nodded..
