Chapter 2:The God Has Begun (1/2)

Time had halted for everybody, but Wei Huo did not know how long the time halt would last. It could be days, months, years, or even decades. Who knew if it might even be halted till the day he dies?

'If that was really the case, what should I do?'

There were supermarkets, restaurants, and a variety of food in the service area. However, the food's shelf-life could only last him for a short time. He needed to go hunting, and grow his own vegetables for self-sustainability.

Wei Huo took out his phone and realized that there was still a network connection. All thanks to the highly-developed technology in this era, machines could still work by themselves even though time had halted. He was provided electricity, water, and an internet connection for the time being, but what if these machines broke down?

Wei Huo needed to be self-sufficient. The first thing that came to his mind was to head back home. Although there was still about 200 kilometers from his home, he could drive someone's car since time had been halted. Right then, the cruel reality hit him again.

First of all, he could not open the doors of occupied vehicles. Secondly, vehicles on the highways stayed stock-still. Needless to say, God would not have made such a howler. A chain collision would have happened if time was halted for humans but not their vehicles.

It did not matter if it were vehicles, rooms, toilets, or offices in the service area. As long as there were people present, the doors could not be opened. That ought to be God's protection for humans who had their time halted. Otherwise, being surrounded by carnivorous plants and creepy creatures would have been too difficult for humans to escape when time started flowing again.

The fact that he would not be able to open his house door made him changed his mind. He could only search for supplies at shops that were currently opened. At the same time, he should look up for information and knowledge regarding farming, equipment maintenance, and other survival skills on the Internet.

He hastily took out his phone and started downloading that information. He was not sure when the Internet connection or electricity would be cut off. It was safer for him to download the information and record it in his book. After all, he had zero knowledge regarding farming.

Farming was not just about digging a hole, planting a seed and watering the plants. Now that the environment had become much more complicated and abominable, mutation of vegetations and animals had been accelerated. Moreover, he still had to keep an eye on pests, weeds, and also the weather… It was just too hard!

Wei Huo suddenly felt that it was too hard for him to survive. Even if all the human beings united, many would have still died during the earth's gamification. It was just too difficult for him to survive on his own!

Wei Huo crumbled. After feeling dispirited for about three hours, he pulled himself together. Come to think of it, did it not mean that he basically owned the whole world since time was halted for all humanity?

That meant he could do anything he wanted. 'If I could stay alive.' He would skip school, work, and do not need to earn any money. 'If I could stay alive.' He could drive all the luxurious cars he wanted and lived in any mansion he liked. 'If I could stay alive.'

Wei Huo was speechless. ”...”

What was wrong with this dual personality internal monologue of his? It did not have to keep emphasizing the 'If I could stay alive' phrase!

It was right however, the premise was that he had to stay alive. Wei Huo was clueless about how long the time halt would last. If it was just a short while, he could survive with all those packaged food. What happened if time halted for a long time? He should at least be able to stay alive until the end of his lifespan, right?

Fear stemmed from his heart. He was left all alone in this world with nobody else to socialize with. Even worse than that was he had to confront all sorts of crises by himself. Who would not be afraid of such a situation? There was still a glimmer of hope in his heart. All humanity would return to normal as long as timestream recovered. He just needed to wait for that day to come. Yes, just wait.

Just when Wei Huo finally regained his confidence, the voice of God appeared again.

”Vegetation growth and animal reproduction accelerated by 10 times.
