7 Mermaid’s Another Ability

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The mermaid, now in a good mood, opened their eyes and saw Peter right in front of them. Then, they quickly jumped into the small lake.

This made Peter's outstretched finger stop in mid-air, which was quite awkward. He had expected the mermaids to come up to him immediately after absorbing the life energy and give him a kiss.

Who would have thought that this would be the result? The mermaids ran into the lake to play.

Peter was about to get up and leave when he suddenly heard the mermaid's cry from the lake.

Pop! Pop!

Following the cry, Peter saw the little mermaid sticking her little head out of the Rippling Lake. She was making a sound to attract his attention. It turned out that the little mermaid was holding a shiny thing in her little hand.

This caught Peter's attention.

The mermaid saw Peter looking at it and immediately swam to the lakeside, then handed the object in her hand to Peter.

What's this?

Peter took it from the mermaid's hand and looked at it carefully. This should be something that the mermaid found in the lake, something like a crystal.

Just as Peter was puzzled, a system notification appeared in his mind.

[ Congratulations, host, you have discovered an energy crystal that can be used to forge energy weapons. ]

[ energy crystal ]

[ quantity ] : 1 unit. (100 units are required to forge an energy weapon)

After reading the system's introduction, Peter immediately understood. He had found a treasure.

Then, Peter held the energy crystal in his hand and asked the Little Mermaid.

"Where did you find this?"

The mermaid could understand what Peter meant, but she could not speak. She immediately turned around and pointed at the bottom of the lake.

"I see. How many of these things are there under the lake?"

When the Little Mermaid heard Peter's question, she immediately waved her hands and drew a big circle in front of her, meaning there were many of these things under the lake.

After Peter understood what the mermaid meant, he was pleasantly surprised.

This time, he really picked up something.

It was really a happy thing to have a mermaid.

Presumably, this was another ability of the mermaid ---- exploration.

This exploration ability was different from the original vision ---- search.

It was similar to a sonar, which could scan underwater without the obstruction of vision. For example, when the mermaid used sonar to call Peter on the beach, she used this ability.

Peter reached out his hands and gently picked up the mermaid. Now he really wanted to give the mermaid something good to eat.

However, looking around, other than the immature plants, there was only the food he brought in.

He was very clear about the taste of the energy bar. It was only there to maintain his physical strength; the food was really not very delicious. It seemed that he could only wait until the plants that he had planted bore fruit.

The little mermaid seemed to understand Peter's thoughts and immediately rubbed her little head against his finger.

Haha!

"This little guy is really cute." Peter played with the Little Mermaid for a while more before putting the little guy into the lake.

Then, he opened the interface of the tree of life and found that the five tree spirits had finished producing.

At this time, there was still some time before dark.

Peter planned to have the five tree spirits plant the remaining Class E seeds before the sky turned completely dark. The thick and strong trunk of the Tree of life showed a dazzling light.

After a moment, five short tree spirits with very strong muscles walked out from the light of the Tree of life.

"This looks a little pleasant!" After the light screen disappeared, Peter finally saw the five tree spirits clearly.

He had imagined that the tree spirits would grow to look like gnomes in movies and TV shows. They had pointy ears and a nose, and a pair of big, weird eyes. That's his image of gnomes, anyway.

However, the tree spirits in front of him now had a pair of round ears, a round nose, and even a round face. A comical look indeed.

At this moment, as the tree spirit appeared, the Tree Spirit's introduction appeared in his mind.

[ Tree spirit, Level 1, consumes 5 life energy every day. can assign tree spirits to carry out planting or mining missions. ]

As expected, this was similar to the role of the tree spirit he had imagined before.

Peter immediately passed through the system and assigned five tree spirits to start planting. The five gnomes walked in a neat line towards the bag full of Class E seeds.

Peter noticed the funny way the gnomes walked.

The five gnomes carried the bag full of seeds and walked towards the planting area. The seeds were divided into many small bags according to the type. This way, the tree spirit would not waste a lot of time looking for the same seeds when planting.

The tree spirit's professionalism in planting surprised Peter again. Peter followed behind the tree spirit and watched as the tree spirits took the seeds out of the bag and sorted them. Then, the leading tree spirit walked into the planting area that Peter had planned in advance and dug a pit in the soil with his thick palm. The tree spirit behind him immediately put in a seed and the tree spirit behind him flattened the hole with his wide feet. The last two tree spirits, one watering and one fertilizing.

This was a complete planting line.

Peter saw the tree spirit's operation and was very satisfied. At this speed, it would not take long for five tree spirits to plant all the E-class seeds.

Just as the tree spirits were planting the seeds non-stop, the system notification sounded again.

[ mutated Class D coffee found. ]

[ mutated Class D potato found. ]

[ mutated Class D grape found. ]

[ mutated Class D wheat found. ]

[ mutated Class D Apple found. ]

After a series of system notifications appeared...

Peter grinned happily.

Right now, the area where the tree spirit planted the Class E seeds was covered by the life energy emitted by the Tree of life.

Naturally, the Class E seeds that were originally planted were instantly upgraded to Class D.

Moreover, Peter was very much looking forward to it. The plants that were already Class D became Class C. Potentially even Class B or Class A.

At that time, all the plants on the island would bear Class A fruits.

Just imagining it would make him happy.

This meant that Peter had an island of inestimable value. He would be a big winner when he returned to the outside world. But then, he had to be able to protect the ripe fruits after the protection period.

Just now, the mermaid found a large amount of energy crystals at the bottom of the lake.

Peter was not in a hurry to let the mermaid mine them. That was because there was no way to create energy weapons after mining them yet.

There was no such function on the system interface. It seemed that the life tree needed to reach a higher level to unlock it.
