[New Features Unlocked]
[Auto Planting - Automatically Plants crops]
[Auto Harvest - Automatically harvest crops when ready]
Li Wei stared at the notification, his eyes widening in disbelief.
These new features would ensure his farm could provide food for thousands without the need for manual labor.
Li Wei gazed at Wang his most trusted companion with a heavy heart.
Wang had stood by him throughout this month and even believed in his return to the past story.
He had stood by him even in his past life (I will be referring to past life as MC's time before getting rebirth)
He even sacrificed himself to protect his own life to protect him.
With a deep breath, he spoke "Wang there's something I need to tell you"
Wang looked at him as Li Wei continued to speak,"I have.... a system. a farming system, that lets me plant and grow crops like no one else can."
Wang's eyes widened in surprise, realizing the magnitude of what he just heard.
After a long, he gave a determined nod and said with a serious expression, "You always trusted me, young master. I swear, I'll protect you in this life to and keep this secret until I die"
Li Wei smiled faintly relieved that with Wang by his side.
That night he slept as he knew that the next day would be hell as a supernova was going to hit on their solar system.
He was woken up by Wang as he now was living in a stronghold there is no sunlight waking him up from now on.
Li Wei opened his eyes and looked at the clock, which showed the time as 10 AM.
He stretched his body and took a deep breath. He headed towards his private bathroom for a quick wash and changed into his usual outfit.
After eating a meal that Wang had already prepared. he then walked towards the command room where he checked the stronghold's security system.
Wang then informed Li Wei about the status of the supplies.
Water tanks are nearly full and food supplies are being stored efficiently.
As Wang was informing both of them looked at the time that was displayed on the huge screen.
Li Wei stood still staring at the clock in his command room, his heart beating steadily despite impending disaster.
He had bet everything on the apocalypse and if that didn't happen then his money and time would be wasted.
But he knew that the apocalypse would come and the proof was his system.
As the time passed he knew that the apocalypse would hit at exactly 12 PM. One minute left.
The countdown had begun every second dragging like an eternity to him.
The counter hit 30 seconds.
Li Wei knew that the world would change forever.
10 seconds.
His mind raced through everything the water taps that he had built and his farming system that would ensure the supplies.
12:00 PM
Suddenly, the earth itself seemed to shudder.
Then the temperature began to rise. Rapidly.
A system notification chimed in as the supernova hit the Blue Star.
[It has been detected that primordial energy has entered the environment. System preparing for update.]
Le Wei's eyes widened in shock. "What the..." he was so shocked that his words stuck in his throat.
Primordial energy..? it sounded like something out of a novel, something impossible. But his system had detected and now was updating.
He barely had time to process as the heatwave stuck.
It was as if the sun itself had decided to punish them. The temperature slowly rose from a manageable 30 degrees Celsius to an unimaginable 90 degrees Celsius.
Screams echoed from the streets. people who had been outside just a moment ago walking to work or running errands now clutched at their blistering skin.
Their face twisted in agony as their bodies began to burn.
The intense heat created rashes within seconds and within minutes those exposed to the sun were covered in red welts.
Le Wei standing in front of a large monitor watched as the chaos unfolded.
The news channel flickered showing live footage from across the globe. the world was consumed in an unimaginable inferno.
As the heat began to rise buildings began to warp and cracks that were made from fragile materials.
Glass windows exploded. Cars overheated and burst into flames trapping their drivers inside.
The roads began to melt turning into sticky rivers of asphalt that clung to anything.
Hospitals overflowed with patients suffering from severe burns and heatstroke but even the air conditioning system couldn't keep up with the heat.
Power grids began to fail as the sheer demand for energy overwhelmed them.
Emergency services were rendered useless.
Firefighters, paramedics, and police officers collapsed under the same brutal sun that was killing the people.
Wang's face was pale as he saw how the world change just a moment ago and what it looked like now.
He was glad that he believed what Li Wei had said and followed him.
He didn't wanted to imagine what would have happened to him if he hadn't followed his young master.
In just one almost all the countries declared states of emergency.
The sun continued its relentless assault.
The temperature outside remained unbearably high. the initial wave of heat had already claimed countless lives.
Those who had managed to survive the nightmare were far from over.
A new challenge arose - dehydration. it became the silent killer.
In cities, the familiar sound of water running through taps had disappeared.
Every source of water whether from public fountains homes or reservoirs had either dried up or spewed only hoy near-boiling water.
Time passed as people began to feel thrusty they searched for water.
Those who had been fortunate enough to stay in their homes during the catastrophic event found a brief moment of relief.
Hidden away from the intense sunlight and shielded from the scalding outdoor temperature.
The water they had stored in bottles, tanks, and underground reservoirs remained drinkable.
