Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse Chapter 30 Discussion

  • #1
Slice of life. Very slice of life, too much so.

Practically, apart from the beginning where they talk about their previous life, nothing really difficult ever happens to the two protagonists.

They already set off into their new life with every possible favorable condition, without making any effort; and where there might be a bit of difficulty... Magic!

Literally, magic. so out of the blue they discover that they have the classic, very classic "dimensional space" and "dimensional cultivation field" contained within the ML family heirloom rings; obviously they discover it by accident, out of the blue (ah, obviously up until that moment there had been no clue, not even in the previous life, of the existence of possible magic in this world and even the apocalypse is offered to us as something relatively natural and explainable with logic, so... really, out of the blue for plot convenience).

Ah, both of them have gone back in time and take it as a fact... but we have never seen them talk to each other about it, be surprised that they went back in time, tell each other about how they died in the first life... none of that. Not even the slightest trauma or desire for revenge, nothing.

Ah, honorable mention for the ML: he is a perfect and divine being, beautiful, very intelligent, capable of doing anything and very much in love with the FL since he was in middle school and she was still wearing diapers (and already here a bit of anxiety comes naturally to me, but at least he waited until she finished college before having his child wife).

As nice as a rectoscopy, and as credible as an email that promises you will become very rich, handsome and muscular in just 10 days if you just click on the link in the description and fill out a very simple questionnaire.

Ah, another gem that can make you understand the level of seriousness of this story: the MCs decide to go and collect supplies in the country of Europe.

Yes, you read it right: in this novel Europe is not a continent, but a single country.

And there they buy two thousand tons of coal, because Europe is renowned for being the first producer of coal in the world (spoiler: it's not. it's China, but the two protagonists prefer to take supplies from other countries and let the others die). I believe that the author doesn't even have in mind how many two thousand tons are and has written a random figure, among other things treating the purchase and sale of such a quantity as one would do with a box of potatoes from the farmer, and not something that - at least - you have to prove legally with invoices and documents. Nah, all it takes is a "tip" and the ML gets everything he wants, even a mobile home built and furnished in less than three weeks.

Okay.

And I really think she confused Australia with Austria, but she could also have put names at random because they sounded good to her.

I felt embarrassed while reading, I admit it.
