Age Of Islands: I Can See Through All Things Chapter 15
Advertisement
Everyone had already noticed where Jack was.
In addition, he made the blacksmiths produce such strange things.
Many people put down their work and gathered around.
Seeing that this strange tool actually had such a miraculous effect, everyone's eyes lit up.
"What kind of tool is this? Why is it so magical?"
"Hah, I've lived for tens of years, but I've never seen this thing before. It's practically a product of God!"
"That's right! Such a magical thing doesn't belong to this world. It must be God. God must have asked the President to give it to us."
"I feel like I've wasted my whole life. If I had this tool, would I not be able to pay back the lord's grains?"
...
Watching Jack and Eugene operate, the butler and the regiment commander could not help but take action as well.
They pulled the rake and worked tirelessly.
They had never felt that farming was such an interesting thing.
After the excitement passed, the results were astonishing.
The land that originally needed seven to eight days to reclaim was completely plowed by the few of them in a short hour.
Everyone handed over their tools for the various officials to distribute.
The butler and regiment commander, who were still excited, could not help but ask, "Mr. President, may I know what kind of existence invented this thing? It's simply amazing."
"That's right. I expect that its creation will completely change the agriculture world."
Listening to them, Jack could not help but smile.
He immediately thought of his original world.
He really did not expect that in that world, tools that had been long forgotten by everyone would have such a huge impact on agriculture!
He was also very emotional now. The farmers back then were such smart people!
It was their intelligence that gave birth to so many great people that completely changed the world!

This sentiment also gave Jack a new perspective on agriculture.
It also strengthened his determination to continue developing it.
After all, having enough food to eat and not worry about the next meal was the foundation for people to invest their energy into other things.
For example, Edison, Newton, Einstein, Hawking, and so on in his previous life. If they did not have enough to eat and could not survive, how could they have created inventions that could change the world?
Jack nodded and sighed, "You're right. The existence of these tools has indeed created a great world. Now, we have to use these tools to create a new world that belongs to us!"
"Mr. President, you're right. With these tools, we'll definitely be able to build our own new world!" Enger's right fist hit his left palm with a bang.
"That's right! This era has changed because of the President. I can't imagine how many people will be saved by your outstanding invention." The butler stroked his beard and said excitedly.
Eugene and the Fox-eared Girl beside him could not help but nod.
Just as everyone was caught in the huge surprise brought by Jack, several people quickly ran towards them.
Before they arrived, they shouted, "Mr. President, Mr. President, we found a very strange plant."
The few of them quickly arrived in front of him. Panting, they said, "Mr. President, there is a strange plant. The wheat on it can emit a faint glow. It gives off a very comfortable smell."
"What?" Hearing the person's words, Jack's eyes lit up.
He had read in books that anything growing on the island was randomized.
If they were lucky, they would be able to find rare items on the island.
From their words, it was very likely that it was a rare treasure.
"Good discovery. What's your name?" Jack asked.

"President, my name is Snike. I'm the leader of this Hunting Squad."
"Very good, Snike. If it's true, you've done a great job! Now, lead the way," Jack said.
"Understood." After saying that, Snike led everyone and rushed over.
The tools had already been arranged.
Now, as long as the blacksmiths continued to work, they could distribute them directly.
After all, the tools were very simple to use and did not require any skills, so Jack did not intend to continue paying attention.
Soon, Snike brought everyone to a place facing the sun.
There were no trees in this area.
There were some strange plants growing in the low-lying areas. Looking from afar, the ears of wheat were indeed shining.
Everyone rushed over and arrived in front of it. Jack immediately activated his Inspection skill.
[Name: Highland Barley (One-star Rare Treasure)]
[Introduction: A mutated breed of barley. It takes 100 days to sow and mature, regardless of season. The yield is extremely low, around 50 kilograms per acre.]
[Note: Highland barley is a variant of barley that has absorbed mysterious substances, so it possesses some mutated characteristics. After using it, it can replenish one's vitality, and long-term use has an extremely high amplification effect on the cultivation of battle aura. It also increases the success rate of a Silver Swordsman's breakthrough.]
Looking at the details given by his Inspection skill, Jack was excited!
It was a rare treasure?
At this moment, he felt like he had been hit by a huge surprise.
According to the book knowledge Jack had read, rare treasures were collectively known as plants, animals, and treasures that had positive magical effects. They were divided into one to nine stars based on their powerful effects.
One-star treasures were relatively ordinary.
But that depended on the situation!
For the current Jack, this one-star treasure was simply tailor-made by the heavens!
One had to know that he had not cultivated battle aura yet.
The battle aura cultivation in this world was very troublesome.
Otherwise, Jack would have learned the method from Eugene.
In order to start cultivating battle aura, one would need at least a Gold Swordsman to plant a battle aura seed for them. Only then would they have the chance to awaken and cultivate battle aura.
Battle aura was something that Jack had always been thinking about.
He had thought that he would have to wait for a long time, but the opportunity was right before him.
As long as he collected these ready-to-use wheat ears, he could make ingredients to help Eugene breakthrough.
Besides, barley could also become his daily food ingredient.
If he slowly changed his physique, the speed of his battle aura cultivation would definitely increase.
It was just that there was little production!
It would take some time to cultivate them.
However, the good thing was that he could produce at least three batches of barley every year. He only needed two or three seasons to grow enough highland barley to be self-sufficient.
Then, Jack looked at the regiment commander and said, "Are there skilled gardeners and farmers among the slaves?"
The regiment commander did not know what Jack wanted to do, but he still nodded. He had already classified the slaves yesterday and could use them anytime.
"Eugene, send a Silver Swordsman to quickly bring people over and let them collect these things. Remember, not a single grain of wheat can be missing, and the harvested stalks cannot be discarded. Collect all of them and send them to my place," Jack patiently instructed.

When an unexpected accident deposits this literal War Machine on a planet full of Cultivators and Wizards, chaos and insanity ensues. What Alpha and those around him don't know, however, is that he will soon become the focal point of a millennias long plot that holds not only the fate of the world in its balance, but possibly the entire Galaxy.Ancient Enemies awaken as the Powerhouses of the world converge with Alpha at the center. Get ready, its going to be a wild ride. ------------------------------------------------------- |_+) Come, Read the Story. Watch Worlds be Conquered. (ALL HAIL YOUR NEW ROBOT OVERLORDS!) See Arrogant Young Masters be slapped in the face (by a 170mm Rail-slug traveling Mach 3). Find Grand, Valuable Treasure (which gets put into storage, because what use does an AI have with pill herbs?) Explore Strange and wonderful lands (that will be shortly stripped mined and exploited for all usable resources) |_+) JOIN US!______________________________________ ALPHA-555-12-4412 (Designation: Star Conquer).One of the 5 most powerful and advanced AI-driven Interstellar Weapon Platforms ever built, was programmed with a very simple mission. Travel the stars.Seek out new and hospitable Alien Worlds.Establish a Forward based for their Master's eventual colonization.And, If necessary, crush any and all native resistance it might find. It was a Mission that Alpha took seriously and dedicated its entire being to.However, when Alpha flies a liiiiitle to close to a Blackhole and gets sucked in, it is thrown into a situation that no amount of programming could prepare it for. Now stranded on an alien, yet familiar world, full of dangerous beasts and strange phenomenon its database has no record or explanation for, Alpha must find a way to not only survive, but thrive.And eventually to do what he was built to do. Conquer._____________________________________________________Some things to expect from this Story 1): MC is an AI programmed with a very specific goal. Thus don't expect him to think or act like a human might. That being said, he/it is not bloodthirsty and evil either. He is specifically programed to work with, and indoctrinate Native species when possible. He is not a demon lord come to end the world as they know it, but a Conqueror come to subjugate. 2): MC won't be getting some kind of Humanoid form or suddenly start trying to think like a Human. Although an AI, he is perfectly Sapient, and fully understands both what he is and what is mission is. He is capable of adapting and changing his thought process, but at the end of the day, the Mission is what matters to him. He doesn't see the need or even WANTS to be Human. The only exception to this might be Humanoid body doubles or puppets used in places his main body isn't able to go. 3): This story is a mix of both Sci-Fi and Cultivation novels. MC with NOT be able to Cultivate themselves (for obvious reasons), but using his technology and knowledge, will be able to adapt and repurpose the strange and exotic resources you might find in a Cultivation World to increase his power and keep up with the powerhouses of this Universe. 4): The Intention of this story is to alternate between it and Parasite King, so I don't get burned out writing either one. As such, updates, while not slow, won't be to quick. Bare with me for awhile till the wheels get rolling.

8 191The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
8 196Nights of Sambria: And the Wish of Light
“I discovered a secret. One I desperately wish could have stayed hidden. It was locked away, concealed in a fantastical world on the doorstep of 7 billion people who stayed utterly oblivious to it. If they will be spared the terror that is coming, I can’t begin to imagine. Know that a forgotten heritage of a dwindling people whispered, unknowingly sending a call to the ancient mysteries of the world. Something listened. And now events are set in motion that could force the earth on a course of terrible change. I am being hunted and have run out of time. There were no stories about it. No legends. Not even scribbles. Yet, the threat of it is real and that’s why I’m writing this warning with shaking hands. So pay attention those who read this, be careful of what lies waiting cloaked in the darkness. That which made their home the lost places of this world.” She folded the letter with a shuddering breath and stared back in the direction from where the noise reverberated through the halls. It was of stone doors shattering one by one. The chances of getting out safely were all but gone. The letter in her hand was all warning they would have. It dropped into one of the Wells and all that could be done now was hope it was found in time, if at all. -- This was my very first large story. ;) I started writing it years ago. Was fun, was difficult, but in the end, it is a story I hope that will inspire. The prologue is in first person perspective and the rest of the story in 3d. Just a little heads-up :P It is a fantasy epic with a contemporary twist for the start. The first arc of the novel is set inside our modern world, but as the mysterious events around Calin intensifies, the hidden secrets in the world start to become more fantastical. The story follows Calin, a young orphan in search of answers. But, the answers he seeks will change his life and that of his friends forever, for the secrets that caused his situation have far greater ramifications than the small village of Lamb's Crest could have known. Remember to leave ratings and reviews. I'm quite interested in hearing your thoughts on the story. ;) Enjoy reading, Omri Hope
