Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 13

The scene in front of her was completely expected.

Sheng An was perfectly calm. She ruffled Jiang Yu’s hair and smiled, “Xiao Yu, what’s wrong?”

Jiang Yu’s eyes were full of tears. “Sister Sheng, I don’t want to study anymore…”

This is so fucking painful.

Wasn’t she supposed to be the Chosen Daughter? Why does it feel even worse than going to college before she was reborn?

Sheng An comforted her, “You’re having a tough time, but there’s no helping it. Who else but you can enter the space? Study hard. Academician Zhou and the others want to turn you into a crop cultivation specialist in just fifteen days.”

Jiang Yu was speechless.

Once again, she thought: I really shot myself in the foot!

When Jiang Yu was in college, she was too busy dating and barely managed to get her diploma.

Her major was easy, too.

But now, a group of academicians and experts were trying to cram her with everything a professional should know as quickly as possible.

She had stuffed way too much into her brain in just one night.

She felt dizzy and lightheaded.

This isn’t the treatment of a Chosen One-this is the miserable life of a student!

Jiang Yu gritted her teeth. “No, I can’t do it. It’s not that I don’t want to cooperate, it’s just-”

She was done!

What could the country possibly do to her?

Sheng An heard this and stayed perfectly composed.

She slowly broke into a smile, her voice gentle. “I’m afraid that won’t work.”

Jiang Yu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Why not? Is the country going to force me to do something I don’t want?!”

Sheng An replied, “Of course not.”

Her smile didn’t change. “But the country might not hand Yu Litian and Chen Jiaojiao over to you anymore. After all, they’re citizens of the country. Maybe the country will just take care of them, let them live safely in the Apocalypse.

“Of course, if they work hard, maybe they’ll have enough to eat and wear, and even get-”

“Ahhh!” Jiang Yu exploded. “No way, absolutely not!”

Cutting straight to the heart!

Every single word was killing her.

She clenched her fists tightly, gritting her teeth:

“I’ll study!”

Letting Yu Litian and Chen Jiaojiao, those two bastards, live the good life would be worse than death for her!

Behind Sheng An, Hao Jingye looked at Jiang Yu sympathetically.

What a joke.

Did she really think Sister Sheng controlled Yu Litian and Chen Jiaojiao for no reason?

That’s Jiang Yu’s soft spot.

Now that she’s in Sister Sheng’s hands, does she still expect to do whatever she wants?

-Heh, did she think Sister Sheng was her confidante?

Jiang Yu gritted her teeth as the anxious academicians and experts dragged her away again.

It wasn’t until the next morning that Sheng An saw Jiang Yu again.

Jiang Yu looked like a wandering soul as she floated into the temporary camp’s cafeteria, dark circles under her eyes, muttering under her breath as if reciting something.

Sheng An waved, “Xiao Yu, come eat.”

Jiang Yu shot her a resentful look.

She drifted over to her, her voice hoarse. “Did you sleep well last night?”

“Not bad.” Sheng An asked, “What’s wrong with your voice?”

Jiang Yu said, “From reciting.”

She grumbled, “I didn’t sleep well. They only gave me two and a half hours of sleep, and even played audio beside me. Said I couldn’t waste study time, even while sleeping…”

Sheng An said, “Be good, take some hardship. Who else but you can enter your space?”

Every time Sheng An comforted Jiang Yu, it was always this phrase.

She spoke with deeper meaning, but Jiang Yu, dense as she was, never thought much of it.

Jiang Yu opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

Sheng An looked at her expectantly.

Jiang Yu gritted her teeth. “Fine, I’ll eat. I can handle this hardship.”

-The Golden Finger must always stay hidden!

Beside her, Hao Jingye pushed up his glasses, a bit speechless.

“Isn’t it just learning how to farm? Do you really have to act like you’re dying?”

Jiang Yu didn’t dare take it out on Sheng An. Now, hearing this, she immediately found a target for her frustration.

She roared at Hao Jingye:

“Do you have any idea how much there is to learn about farming?! Do you really think it’s just sticking seeds in the ground?!”

“I used to think the same – how hard could farming be?”

“But damn it, Academician Zhou and the others say so many of those research crops are precious, they all need special cultivation methods, each one is different, and I have to memorize every single one!”
“Is there any other space that’s an experimental field? I need to learn to compare that-”

Hao Jingye replied expressionlessly, “Compare the growth of different crops in the same environment, the same crop in different environments, and different crops in different environments. Survival of the fittest, even artificial intervention to cultivate the desired plants.”

Jiang Yu: “???”

She looked utterly confused. “How do you know that?”

Hao Jingye, still calm, pushed up his glasses again. “When I was doing my PhD, I was bored, so I picked up Applied Biological Sciences as well.”

At that moment, his glasses seemed to shine brilliantly.

Jiang Yu mumbled in a daze, “Bored? Just picked it up?”

Hao Jingye: “Yeah, I studied quite a few majors…”

He sipped his porridge and casually added, “About twenty or so. Later, I was specially recruited by the state, so I focused on a few fields, and learned more than ten languages.”

He sighed, “But with the Apocalypse coming, all those languages were learned for nothing.”

Jiang Yu: “???”

Her head tilted, her face full of confusion and bewilderment, her mouth twitching.

She suspected she must have misheard.

Sheng An added, “Don’t compare yourself to him. He has a photographic memory.”

Jiang Yu: What the heck?

There really are people with photographic memory in this world??

“What did you think? If I didn’t have some special skills, how could I be assigned as Sister Sheng’s assistant, helping manage such a critical Apocalypse Special Affairs Department?” Hao Jingye rolled his eyes.

Jiang Yu: “…………”

Until today, she really hadn’t seen how amazing Hao Jingye was!

She looked at Hao Jingye, then at Sheng An, and recalled that group of researchers who disliked anyone with an IQ below 120…

-Wait, what kind of monsters are these?

Wasn’t she supposed to be the Chosen One, a Reborn Person?

Why did she suddenly feel so mediocre and ordinary??

This can’t be right!!

Jiang Yu fell into self-doubt.

She was thoroughly discouraged, her whole demeanor deflated.

Sheng An tapped her chin, “Eat up. Academician Zhou specifically ordered breakfast for you. For lunch, just order whatever you want.”

Hearing this, Jiang Yu looked at the food in front of her.

A bowl of rice, several exquisite dishes, both meat and vegetables, even some expensive ingredients, steaming hot as if just out of the kitchen.

Clearly made by a top chef, with perfect color, aroma, and taste.

Jiang Yu swallowed her saliva.

She was inexplicably touched. “At least he has some conscience!”

Is this to make up for tormenting her too much?

She wasn’t going to forgive him!

Sheng An swallowed her food and said casually, “He said you’re too dumb, so eat more to nourish your brain.”

Jiang Yu: “…”

-Ah, just let the world end already!!

No one understood her breakdown.

Hao Jingye had already finished eating and was swiping on his tablet. Then he looked at Sheng An:

“Sister Sheng, Li Wanyun boarded a plane early this morning and is already on her way to the Northeast. Lao Zhao and the others are following her.”

Sheng An nodded and chuckled lightly, “A wasted trip.”

Hao Jingye asked again, “Should we follow?”

Sheng An: “No need. You control her phone, pull surveillance from everywhere. With Lao Zhao and the others, just make sure she’s safe. We’ll wait here in Beijing for her to come back empty-handed.”

Jiang Yu couldn’t help but ask curiously, “What are you talking about?”

Sheng An: “Your future colleague, Li Wanyun, a Space Ability Superpower User.”

Yes, she could be considered a future team member.

Jiang Yu: “!!”

There was already a Space Ability Superpower User!

Jiang Yu felt a little sour for no reason.

As if thinking of something, she asked again, “Why will she come back empty-handed?”

Hao Jingye smirked and glanced at Jiang Yu, “Because in front of the national machinery, all individual actions are useless and powerless.”

Jiang Yu: “???”

Can’t they say something she can understand?

“Can I join you guys?” Jiang Yu asked eagerly.

Sheng An smiled slightly, “No, you’d better focus on learning how to preserve Hope Seedlings and experiment with Hope Seeds.”

Jiang Yu wanted to cry, “Farming is farming, don’t make it sound so grand!!”

Hao Jingye asked in confusion, “What are you doing this morning?”

Jiang Yu looked at him expressionlessly:

“Learning to drive a tractor.”
