Chapter 3: Awakening

Zhao Hai slowly opened his eyes, and now he knew what had happened. Adam's memories were completely integrated with his own, which made Zhao Hai truly understand that he had truly traveled through time, but it was still the most common form of soul transmigration and sacrifice in time travel.

As a otaku, if you don't know what time travel is, then you can't be considered a complete otaku. However, Zhao Hai never imagined that he would catch up with time travel and even travel to such a unlucky person.

From Adam's memory, Zhao Hai already knew what was going on. However, when Adam fainted, he had not yet come out of the capital city. Zhao Hai didn't know where he was now, but he knew that he was no longer the home of the AKS Empire capital. When he woke up last time, he looked around and knew that it was not the familiar home of Adam.

As soon as Zhao Hai opened his eyes, he felt someone beside him. He turned his head and found the old man he had seen when he first woke up standing next to him. Although the old man had a serious expression, his eyes were full of concern.

Unlike the first time he woke up, this time Zhao Hai had already met the old man, who was the butler of the Buda family, Green Buda. Green was originally non Buda, but was later given a surname by Zhao Hai's great grandfather. He had been loyal to the Buda family and was the most trusted person in the Buda family.

However, Adam didn't get along well with Greene in the past. Adam was just a playboy, while Greene was a serious person who always kept an eye on him, telling him this and that, so Adam hated Greene very much. But because Greene's qualifications were too old, even his father dared not be rude to Greene, so he could only endure it.

After being reborn, Zhao Hai will certainly not be as brainless as Adam before. Having read countless time travel novels and having an adult mindset, Zhao Hai, who has always had a very difficult life, is certainly much more sensible than Adam, who was pampered since childhood. Of course, he knows the importance of Green to him. With such an old butler, he can trust him with everything.

And from Adam's memory, he could tell that this old butler had even greater strength than his father, and in this world, strength represents hope for survival.

Long term otaku life, long-term fantasies, combined with Adam's memories, made Zhao Hai not have too much aversion to time travel. Similarly, he did not have too many expectations, just changed his living environment. The only thing that made him unhappy was two things. First, there was no computer here, and he couldn't access the internet anymore. It was even more unbearable for a otaku not to access the internet than killing him. The second is that he was actually drunk from the Water of Nothingness, and from then on, he could no longer learn fighting spirit and magic, which shattered Zhao Hai's dream of dominating the world.

Zhao Hai didn't notice, in fact, he had already been assimilated by Adam's memory. The reason why he didn't panic was because he was familiar with everything here in the Ark Continent. From his two unhappy points, it could be seen that the first point was about Zhao Hai on Earth, and the second point was related to the Ark Continent.

However, Zhao Hai also understood very well. Although he was unhappy, he had already come and there was nothing more to say. Since he had come, let's settle down. He would become Adam Buda in the future.

At this thought, Zhao Hai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if his heart had relaxed. No wonder he could accept Adam's identity so easily, because in his last life, he had no relatives at home. Due to being too otaku, he didn't have many friends. It can be said that when he was on Earth, he was carefree. Now that he has come here, it's just a change of environment, nothing special. There are also a few people around him who care about him, and there is nothing bad about it.

At this moment, Green also noticed that Zhao Hai had woken up and quickly walked to the bedside, saying to Zhao Hai, "Young master, how are you feeling? Is there anything else that's uncomfortable? Is your head still hurting

Zhao Hai hadn't heard these caring words for a long time. Now that he heard them, he couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart. He felt like his body was fine, so he quickly sat up and shook his head at Green, saying, "I'm okay, Grandpa Green, where are we

Green was clearly stunned for a moment. Adam used to be impolite, but now he's not used to speaking like this. However, he immediately said, "Young master, we've arrived at the fiefdom

Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment and immediately understood. He nodded and said, "Is it the Black Soil Wasteland

Green was surprised by Zhao Hai's calmness, but he nodded and said, "Yes, this is the Black Soil Wilderness

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Where are we now? What's the situation here? How many people are there in total? How much land are there

In Adam's memory, there is only a little bit of the legendary memory of the Black Soil Wasteland. It is located next to the Decay Swamp, and the land here cannot be cultivated, etc. He knows nothing else, which is why Zhao Hai asked. Anyway, he is now Adam and will live in this Black Soil Wasteland in the future. He also needs to know about the situation here.

Green stared blankly at Adam. If Adam hadn't been under his nose all this time, he would have thought that Adam had been given a bag and that the Adam in front of him was definitely not the one he knew.

Is it really setbacks that make people grow? "Although Green was puzzled, he did not doubt Adam's identity and could only see Adam's current behavior as his maturity. However, Zhao Hai's performance made Green very happy, and he quickly said, "Young master, we are in the lord's mansion of the fiefdom. The lord's mansion is located on an iron mountain in the black soil wasteland, which is abandoned by the dwarves. There is some land on it that can be cultivated. Please punish the young master. The old slave took control without authorization and sold all the things in the family, buying a large amount of supplies and a hundred slaves. Now we only have more than a hundred gold coins in our hands. The only people who came here are the old slave, his wife, granddaughter, wood, and stones. The remaining ones are only the one hundred slaves. The others have already left

Zhao Hai nodded and analyzed the current situation in his head. They were now at a dead end, but there was a lord's mansion here where they could live, a mountain where they could grow something, a hundred slaves, and five people who could be completely at ease and were also the closest people.

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Grandpa Green did a great job. In this kind of place, gold coins are useless. Only materials can support us for a while longer. Alright, I don't have anything else to do here. Grandpa Green, you should go arrange it and see how much land can be cultivated in this iron mountain. What's suitable for us to grow? After all, we still need to eat

Green nodded and said, "Okay, young master, please rest first. I'll have Meg come to serve you later

As soon as Green mentioned Meg, Zhao Hai's mind immediately came up with that delicate looking, green haired, petite girl, who was Green's granddaughter.

But then Zhao Hai gave a bitter smile, because Adam had wanted to sexually assault Merlin before, but Merlin was a level six wizard with a weak appearance and a strong heart. Although he dared not do anything to him, whenever Adam wanted to do something to her, she would kill herself, making Adam afraid to really do anything to her.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but curse inwardly. He had to take responsibility for what Adam had caused before. In this situation, seeing Merlin was so awkward, so he immediately said, "No need, Grandpa Green. I want to rest for a while and not let them disturb me. Just call me at dinner time

Green bowed and said, 'Yes, the old slave has left.' With that, he walked out of Zhao Hai's room.

Zhao Hai sighed inwardly and slowly walked out of bed. Although he remembered lying in bed for a long time, he didn't feel any discomfort. Instead, he felt like he had endless strength. He couldn't help but stretch lazily and walked to the window, gently pushing it open and looking out.

What catches the eye is a small castle style building, and he lives on the top floor, where everything outside can be clearly seen. This is a Western style small castle, with a small square and a surrounding wall visible in front. Outside the castle, there is an invisible black earth, which is as black as oil, giving people a sense of death.

The most new and small to say in the book of ⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥\886!

On the square of the castle, there was a pile of things piled up. Zhao Hai took a closer look and it seemed that they were all some daily necessities. There was a large group of people busy there.

These people are male and female, wearing uniform coarse cloth clothes. The difference is that there is a mark on the forehead of the male, which is too far away to see clearly. However, Zhao Hai knows that it must be the imprint of the Buda family, representing that these people are slaves of the Buda family.

I looked around again, but it was a barren mountain with some crooked trees growing on it. These trees didn't grow well, and they seemed to be seriously ill and listless. Besides these trees, they are just weeds that don't grow tall and look malnourished.

He withdrew his gaze and glanced at the castle that now belonged to him. The castle was quite small, and even if it could accommodate thousands of people, it wouldn't be a problem. However, it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time. There was some moss growing on the walls, and some green grass had emerged from the crevices in the rocks. With a dilapidated appearance, he looked at the window paper on the floor, which was obviously newly pasted. The other rooms had not been pasted with window paper yet.

Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile bitterly. Adam remembered clearly in his memory that the Buda family used glass in the imperial mansion, but here they used primitive window paper, which was a far cry.

However, Zhao Hai developed a sense of pride. Anyway, the land he could see with his eyes was all his own. No matter what others said, he didn't believe that the black soil that looked so fat and oily couldn't grow crops. He must live up to his character and let those who had harmed him see it. This can be considered as some compensation for taking up Adam's body.

At that moment, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind
