Chapter 296: The Amazing Time Difference Between the Inside and Outside of the Alien World
Some spores fly outward, while others sink into the soil and begin to grow.

Yenne found that as she breathed, she continuously replenished energy from the air, and releasing the spores became easier and less laborious than before.

In such an environment, the mycelium of her spores grew at an astonishingly fast rate. She could even feel a fungal carpet rapidly taking shape and extending in the soil beneath her feet.

This is an unprecedented growth rate of mycelium, it is not so fast even in the secret realm.

After standing there for a while, Ye Nai received the positioning information from the spores exploring the surroundings. She clenched her fists and was ready to take the first step into the alien world. Suddenly, she looked down as if she had telepathy.

Under a pile of dead leaves, a mushroom was breaking out of the soil. Under Ye Na's gaze, it opened its cap and turned into a cute, round little white mushroom.

Ye Na squatted down and gently pulled out the small white mushroom with its roots.

As this small white mushroom left the soil, more and more small white mushrooms emerged one after another under the dead leaves around it.

Ye Na was surprised and delighted. Her spores could only grow into mycelium on the Blue Star and in those secret realms, but as soon as they entered the alien world, the mycelium grew into fruiting bodies.

At the same time, she quickly realized that, not to mention Blue Star, it seemed that energy was also scarce in those secret realms.

Ye Na picked a circle of small white mushrooms, and new small white mushrooms emerged from the soil. There were so many of them that they pointed out a route for her.

So, Ye Nai took out a stainless steel vegetable washing basin from the space, and picked the vegetables as she walked. She didn't stop even when her waist ached from being tired, and she changed to another basin when it was full.

They picked mushrooms along the way, and the little white mushrooms led Ye Nai from the dimly lit primeval forest to a small meadow with sunshine.

Just in time, she was tired from walking, so she took out an outdoor chair for her own use and sat down to rest for a while.

Then things got fun. Little white mushrooms popped up all over the grass. No matter how hard I tried to pick them, they kept popping up. It was impossible to pick them all.

The mycelium grows into fruiting bodies, which are mushrooms. After pulling out the mushrooms, normally the mycelium under the soil needs to go through a regrowth process before it can grow new fruiting bodies.

Now, this growth process has been compressed to the extreme. The faster Ye Na picks, the faster it grows underneath, and the fungal carpet supporting the mycelium is still thickening layer by layer.

Finally, Ye Na added a new compartment in the space, which was specifically used to collect the small white mushrooms, and poured them into it one basin at a time.

She also tried to use spores to help her collect, but it didn't work. The spores sank into the soil as soon as they flew over and became part of the mycelium.

She has to pick all these little white mushrooms by herself.

She really wanted the mycelium to stop growing into mushrooms, but it wouldn't listen to her and just kept growing.

Ye Na could only keep picking.

If you are really tired, just sit down and rest for a while, drink a drink, and then continue working after you have rested.

She just wanted to see how many small white mushrooms she would have to collect before she was done.

These are the mushrooms transformed from her supernatural spores. She must pick them all and not leave a single one for others or strange beasts.

She picked mushrooms with great concentration, and the spores around her protected her.

After the mushrooms emerge from the ground, a large number of spores are ejected from the gills, some of which sink into the soil to form new mycelium and new mushrooms, and some of which form a protective wall.

Predators, big and small, that came to hunt fresh prey were all knocked down by the spores. Mycelium grew on the corpses, and within minutes, the fur, flesh and blood were completely decomposed, revealing the skeleton. The bones decomposed more slowly, but were still decomposing.

When arriving at a place with sufficient energy, the attack power of the spores became much stronger.

She was busy like this on and off for half a day. The sky gradually darkened and the small white mushrooms finally stopped appearing in the grass. Her watch showed that she had been there for five hours.

"Oh my god, I'm finally done." Ye Nai wiped the sweat off his forehead and returned to the Dongling Secret Realm without hesitation.

As soon as she stood on the land of the secret realm, Ye Na felt something was wrong.

The sky in the secret realm is still bright.

She glanced at her watch again and confirmed that five hours had passed.

Then she picked up her phone and was surprised to see that only five minutes had passed.

"Is my phone or my watch broken? Why is the time difference so big?"

After two seconds, he hesitated again.

"But what if it's not broken?"

"Five hours to five minutes? A 60:1 time difference?"

Ye Na turned her phone to the calculator because she was afraid she wouldn't be able to figure it out by mental arithmetic.

"If the phone and watch are both good, 60:1, then one year in the Other World means only a little over six days in the Secret Realm? The time difference between the Secret Realm and Blue Star is 12 hours, which means the time difference between the Other World and Blue Star is also 60:1?!"

"Oh my god, this is so cool!"

"I farmed in another world for a year and returned to Blue Star with the harvest, and only a week has passed?"

Ye Na raised her eyebrows, feeling excited, but suddenly calmed down.

"Eh? That's not right! The time difference is 60:1. The enemy invaded 50 years ago. Doesn't that mean 3000 years have passed in this alien world? They have a population born continuously for 3000 years as a source of soldiers. Compared with the population born every 50 years on Blue Star, it's no wonder they never lack soldiers. Ha, they really do."

"But why do they seem to be so primitive? In the 3000 years of development, they haven't used their special power system to develop science and technology? They have occupied the land of those old developed countries, but have not used their science and technology to study and research?"

"Oh, I forgot. Before the war, those developed countries only had the little advanced technology they had on hand. The enemy didn't have a complete way to climb the technology tree. No wonder sometimes the guns they carry look like they need maintenance. Maybe they are stocks dug out from some warehouse. It's considered a good product quality that an old gun can still be used today."

"The chainsaws they use to cut down trees emit black smoke. They must be using traditional refining techniques. Let's not talk about the quality of the fuel. Where does the crude oil come from? Is there an oil field nearby?"

"There is plenty of energy in this other world. I wonder if the seeds from Blue Star can be grown here. I need to find a piece of land to try."

Yenne smacked her lips, took out a small notebook and wrote down both ideas.

Just as I stopped writing, another bad guess came to my mind.

"Oh no, the time difference is so big. I've been here for a long time, and it's only been a few months since I returned to Blue Star. Will I die of old age in a few days?"

Thinking of this possibility, Ye Na felt numb inside, but it didn't seem that numb.

"No, it's hard to say what happens to other people after they come here. I'm probably a special case. I need to observe further."

"Or, rob a landlord and let him farm for me, and I'll go back to Blue Star and wait a week to get the results?"

"It's not very good. There is a language barrier and communication is a problem."

Ye Na thought about it and couldn't think of any way to overcome the huge time difference, so she had to write it down in her notebook and deal with it later.

Then her eyes fell on the stainless steel basin.
