5 Mermaid’s Ability

After Peter received the system notification, he immediately opened the notification. He discovered that the Class D rose he planted yesterday had mutated.

According to the system notification, the Class D rose had mutated into a Class C rose.

This change lit Peter's eyes up as he pondered a possibility.

The area where the rose was planted was the closest to the tree of life. If the mutation of the Class D rose was due to the tree of life, then would the other Class D seeds also mutate if they're close to the tree of life?

To test his guess, Peter walked under the thick trunk of the tree of life.

When Peter planted the seed of the tree of life, he remembered that there were no plants around, not even a weed. But now, there were many small plants growing around the trunk of the Tree of life.

Although Peter couldn't name the plants, nor did he know what they were for, he knew one thing very well: the tree of life could not only give birth to life energy, but also change the environment around it, even if only the tree of life was given time to grow.

Sooner or later, the tree of Life's influence would cover the entire island. It could even cover a large area of the ocean beyond the island.

One had to know that apart from planting plants on land, plants like seaweed could also be cultivated in the ocean.

It was even possible to have plants that the outside world had never seen before.

This discovery made Peter very excited.

If he had prioritized planting Class E seeds yesterday, he was afraid that he would regret it today after discovering that the tree of life could raise the level of plants. Peter was afraid that he would regret it to death.

Fortunately, he had unintentionally done it yesterday, but today he had received such a big surprise.

In that case, Peter had to make a new planting plan. He planned to expand the planting area with the tree of life as the center.

The plants around the small lake need not be replanned.

According to Peter's calculation, in another 2-3 days, the area affected by the tree of life would cover all the plants planted yesterday.

In this way, the special ability of the tree of life could be maximized without any major changes.

Just do it!

Next, Peter recreated a planting area along the tree of life, different from the planting area around the small lake.

Now, with the Tree of life as the center, there were circles of planting areas.

This was more convenient for Peter's daily maintenance and management.

Moreover, he specially planned out an additional picking area between each circle of planting areas.

After the first batch of fruits matured, Peter could use the money from selling the fruits to hire people from the outside world.

Of course, Peter needs enough self-defense capacity. People hired from the outside world killing the island owner and looting their treasure was not unheard of. This kind of situation couldn't be completely eliminated. Where there was profit, there would always be bloodshed and violence.

It was not until the afternoon that Peter finally divided a new planting area.

If one looked down from the sky above the island, the circular planting area with the tree of life as the center would extend all the way to the boundary of the island. When the circular area was filled with all kinds of plants and bloomed and bore fruit, the entire island would be full of vitality under the protection of the Tree of life.

At that time, the originally desolate island would be like a floating garden in the ocean and become a feast for the eyes!

After a busy morning, it was noon. Peter used the solar device to boil the purified water and made himself a cup of coffee.

Sitting in the shade of the much bigger tree of life while drinking the fragrant coffee, he imagined the changes of the island in the future.

Next, Peter planned to use the afternoon to plant all the Class E seeds that he brought in.

Before, he had no way to buy any seeds above Class D, so he brought a lot of Class E seeds in. Among these Class E seeds, Peter wanted to plant Class E coffee beans the most, since coffee was an essential drink every day. However, that's not the only reason: now that they knew that the tree of life could upgrade the level of the plants, peter was also very eager to drink high-grade quality coffee.

Just as Peter was imagining it, the sound of the call on the beach attracted Peter's attention.

Woo Woo... Pop!

At this time, from Peter's position, he could clearly hear the mermaid's call from the direction of the beach. This made him very surprised, since he's about five or six kilometers away.

At such a distance, not to mention a little mermaid, even if he used a big horn to make a sound, he wouldn't be able to hear it. That's strange!

Peter immediately realized that the mermaid's voice should be a kind of sonar transmission.

Could it be that this was a mermaid's ability? Without thinking much, Peter quickly ran toward the beach.

The mermaid must have been unhappy after absorbing the life energy and found that Peter was not around.

About half an hour later, Peter ran to the beach, panting.

At this time, he suddenly realized a problem. It was quite hard to go back and forth between the beach and the planting area so frequently every day. He had to think of a solution.

Putting away the thoughts in his mind, Peter saw that the body of the mermaid in the sand pit had grown by one size. The sand pit, which was originally enough to accommodate the mermaid, now looked very small.

Pop!

After the mermaid saw Peter, she pouted her small mouth at him in grievance.

It seemed like she wanted to say something else.

Something on the page of "I'm already grown up, and you don't even come to see me."

Peter saw that the mermaid had grown to the size of his palm.

When he first got the mermaid, the little thing was only half the size of his palm.

This growth rate was too fast.

It was worth it to use life energy to grow the mermaid.

Peter still reached out his finger and gently touched the mermaid's small head.

The mermaid's next action surprised him.

There was a small cut on Peter's finger, caused by a sharp stone when he was cultivating the planting area, which he didn't care about.

Who knew that when his finger touched the mermaid, it noticed and spat out bubbles from her mouth to cover the wound. Then, the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Hiss!

Peter saw the wound on his finger, and it healed in the blink of an eye.

Could it be!

Was this the ability of a mermaid? Maybe, it's the healing power?
