10 A Second Creature

The Tree of life gave birth to a creature that required 300 points of life energy. As for what kind of creature it could give birth to, it was completely random.

This increased Peter's interest. If the creature's known in advance, Peter may be not bothered to pay the 300 points of life energy.

After Peter opened the Tree of Life interface, he used 300 points of life energy to give birth to an unknown creature. At this time, the interface displayed the countdown ---- 10 minutes ---- of giving birth to an unknown creature.

Coincidentally, Peter also returned to the freshwater lake.

"Elsa!"

Peter did not see the mermaid on the surface of the freshwater lake, so he could only call out the mermaid's name loudly. Soon, a small head popped out of the lake.

Pop! Pop!

"Where... Where did you go just now?"

The little guy was still not used to speaking. She saw Peter, made the unique mermaids' call first, and then she remembered to speak.

"I went to build a new thing. You'll see it in the future."

"Are you hungry?"

The mermaids quickly swam to the lakeside, pouting and shouting.

"Eat! Hug me, eat."

"..."

Peter was speechless. It made sense for the little guy to be hugged by Peter now. But what about when they grew up?

He remembered that in the legends about mermaids, they would turn their tails into legs in the end. They were almost no different from humans.

He just did not know if the mermaid born from the tree of life would be able to turn their tail into legs in the future.

Peter carried the mermaid and walked to the table to eat.

The shade of the tree of life was almost reaching the lake. Soon, Peter and the mermaid would be able to eat by the lake.

After all, the sunlight in the island world was a little strong.

Unlike the changeable weather outside, the island world was mostly sunny. At least after Peter came to the island world, he hadn't seen any other weather. It was also possible that he was in the protection period ---- he didn't know if the island's weather would be moody after the protection period.

At this time, Peter was sitting on a folding chair, holding a mermaid in his arms. The little guy was really like a pet cat, snuggling in his arms, his eyes half-closed.

Because he had just finished eating life energy, the little guy was still slowly digesting it. As he grew larger, the amount of life energy he ate increased. And the thing that moved Peter the most was the upper body of the mermaid. It was just a little too spicy for his eyes.

Life Energy was really good stuff. The mermaid's originally not very big breasts had already taken shape after eating life energy a few times. Peter sometimes imagined how happy he would be when the mermaid grew to be the same size as him.

After the man and the fish finished their meal, Peter sent the mermaid back to the freshwater lake. Then, he opened the interface of the tree of life and saw that the second creature that the tree of life had bred had been completed.

The interface of the Tree of life did not show what kind of creature was bred, but only showed the progress of the breeding. He still had to walk to the trunk of the tree of life and wait for the birth of the creature, just like when he was waiting for the mermaid.

Peter walked to the trunk of the Tree of life and waited with his arms outstretched. A ball of light appeared again on the trunk of the Tree of life.

As the ball of light slowly descended, Peter caught it with both hands, which made Peter recall men in the outside world guarding their wives after birth.

The same action, the same anticipation. Every life arrival is an exciting moment.

At this time, the light ball fell on Peter's palm and began to slowly disappear.

A fish-like creature appeared in Peter's sight.

Is this a shark? After the light ball dispersed, a shark-like little guy appeared.

Only, he is not very certain that it is a shark, since sharks had distinct features. At this moment, Peter received a system notification.

[ killer whale, Level 1. When placed in the ocean, it will grow on its own. ]

It was actually an orca, a ferocious sea creature specialized in hunting sharks.

Peter was also very happy to obtain an orca. This was a creature that could break through the island's defensive circle and attack enemies in the distance. After knowing that the creature born from the tree of life this time was an orca, Peter looked at the orca that was only half the size of his palm and began to feel troubled.

Should he throw it directly into the ocean?

He was also afraid that the orca was too small and could not survive. He could only put it into a freshwater lake to try it out first. He wanted to see if the orca could adapt to living in freshwater.

In fact, he mainly wanted to find a playmate for the mermaid. From now on, Peter still had a lot of things to do, so he couldn't always be by the mermaid's side.

With the idea of a trial, Peter carried the killer whale to the lakeside.

The unique black and white patterns on the body of the killer whale were very beautiful. Moreover, the head of the killer whale was very big and very cute.

At this time, the mermaid also saw Peter and quickly swam to the lakeside.

It was not until the mermaid saw Peter holding a killer whale in his hand that she revealed a surprised expression.

"Elsa, let it be your friend, okay?"

Peter asked the mermaid and gently placed the killer whale in the lake.

In the next moment, the black and white body of the killer whale showed signs of life as it twisted in the lake. It seemed to be adapting to the lake water.

The mermaid also excitedly surrounded the killer whale and even used her small hand to cover the killer whale's head.

The killer whale also felt the touch of the mermaid and opened its eyes.

It rubbed its mouth against the mermaid's small hand.

Peter was relieved when he saw that the killer whale in the freshwater did not show any abnormalities.

However, he was still a little puzzled. After all, the outside world knew that it was a creature of the sea and could not live in freshwater. 

Something's different on the island world.

Peter guessed that the problem was still with the tree of life. After all, the creatures born from the tree of life were more than ordinary creatures.

Peter didn't think too much about it. He was also very happy to see that the mermaid had another playmate. This way, the two creatures wouldn't feel lonely. Looking at the lake, where the mermaid and the killer whale were playing with each other, Peter left the lakeside with ease.

Next, he would walk around the beach and choose the place to build the nextenergy defense tower. This was the most important thing.

The growth rate of the tree of life was still amazing. It seemed that it would take less than 10 days to reach level 100. Therefore, the next few days would be the days when the island would experience the greatest changes.

Of course, the biggest benefit from the growth of the Tree of life in the early stages was still the production of life energy. This guaranteed the amount of life energy needed for the construction of the first energy defense tower in the early stages.

As for the Energy Crystals, as the mermaids grew day by day, the mining progress would also increase by a lot, not to mention the small killer whale.

So, Peter was seizing the time to plan in advance the construction site of the energy defense tower. Starting tomorrow, he was going to build the energy defense tower on a large scale.
