[Welcome to the Gap Manor. Please remember the following rules --]
[1. The manor is divided into day and night. The Divine Tree can only absorb nutrients during the day to grow.]
[2. Every once in a while, Gap Manor will appear in the Otherworld. It will be invaded by creatures from the Otherworld. Please be careful.]
[3. Tree Masters can enter the Otherworld on their own accord. There are countless resources and items in the Otherworld. You can obtain all of them. The prerequisite is that you can return to Gap Manor safely.]
[4. The output of the Divine Tree and the items and resources obtained from the Otherworld can be traded through the trading mall. However, be careful not to be deceived.]
[5. If you meet other Tree Masters in the Otherworld, Congratulations. You can choose to ally with other Tree Masters. You can also choose to kill them, obtain their manor, and expand your manor's territory.]
[6. The manors will regularly conduct advancement tests for Tree Masters. After passing the test, the manors will advance and obtain information about the higher-ups of the Otherworld. They will face a new era and challenges.]
[7. The last surviving Tree Masters will become the god of the two worlds.]
Cole shook his head and allowed his eyes to return to normal. In front of him, an empty box appeared.
'Set a fake nickname to confuse others?'
Cole thought for a moment and entered the name of a character he liked very much in the box, [Constantine].
[[Constantine] unregistered, approved.]
The box disappeared and Cole looked around him.
The meadow.
The sun.
And the lightning at the edge of the gap.
The lightning covered the manor and isolated everything.
There was basically nothing in the manor, not even a place to stay.
"Let's not talk about the place to stay first. I can't possibly eat dirt to survive now, right?"
Looking around the manor, Cole smacked his lips. There was no water source in the manor, no living creatures, and nothing except for the emerald green grass.
'I can only see if the system has anything to fill my stomach with.'
Cole called out the system in his mind, and a screen appeared in front of Cole.
Following that, a few options popped up: [Personal Information], [World Channel], [Trading Mall], [Map of the Otherworld], and [Warehouse].
Cole reached out and opened his personal information
There were a few more options in his personal information. Among these options, only [Character] was lit up. The others: [Divine Tree], [Follower], and [Divine Weapon] were all dark and had not been unlocked yet.
Cole clicked on [Character], and a long string of data appeared on another small screen.
[Tree Master: Constantine]
[Ability: None]
[Cultivation Level: None]
[Bloodline: None]
[Talent: [1,000 Times Amplification (God)], [Fantasy Divine Tree (God)], [Fusion Adaptation (God)]
[Luck: E]
[Spirit: E]
[Divine Tree: 0 (Unsown)]
[Please open the warehouse and sow the seeds of the Divine Tree as soon as possible.]
Cole immediately followed the prompt and opened the warehouse. There was only one thing in the warehouse at the moment -- the seed of the Divine Tree.
After taking out the seed of the Divine Tree, Cole could not believe his eyes. The seed of the Divine Tree was as small as a pea.
The pea was surrounded by a colorful halo, and there was also a comfortable atmosphere.
Cole looked around the empty manor, then turned around and walked to the center of the manor.
After the Divine Tree grew, it could use its own power to feed back to the manor. The entire manor would be nourished by the power, so there was no problem planting the Divine Tree in the center area.
Walking to the center, Cole reached out and dug a small hole in the ground. He carefully put the seed of the Divine Tree into the hole and covered the soil.
In the next second, a beam of light that looked like a blessing from god shot out from the sun above his head and landed on the seed.
In the blink of an eye, the small sapling of the Divine Tree broke out of the ground.
Although it was only a small sapling, there was a brilliant light flowing on the leaf, as if it was divine.
"As expected of the Divine Tree. It looks very extraordinary."
Cole reached out and poked the leaf of the Divine Tree. Suddenly, a [Divine Tree] panel appeared in front of him.
[Divine Tree]
[Current Stage: Tree Sapling]
[Sunlight: 300/day (0.3 x 1000)]
[Energy: 120/day (0.12 x 1000)]
[Number of Planted Trees: 1]
[Number of Secondary Planted Trees: 3]
[Product: Energy Fruit]
[Production Cycle: 2.1/day (0.21 x 1000)]
[Number Produced: 3]
[Nutrition Points: 2 (0.21 x 1000 = 210/day)]
[Next Stage: Small Tree/Spirit Tree (700 nutrition points)]
"As expected of a 1000-fold increase. It can provide three nutrition points in an hour."
Cole looked at the information on the Divine Tree and smacked his lips. If it was an ordinary Tree Master, they would only receive 5.04 nutrition points in a day based on 0.21 nutrition points. It would take at least four months for the small Tree Sapling to grow into a Spirit Tree.
But now, he only needed to wait three days for the Tree Sapling to grow into a Spirit Tree.
As for the Energy Fruit...
Cole felt that it had something to do with improving the Tree Master and the manor.
After planting the seed, Cole suddenly realized that he had nothing to do now.
After planting the seed, he would just lie down and wait for the fruit to ripen.
Feeling bored, Cole opened the [World Channel], intending to see what the other Tree Masters participating in the project would talk about.
The [World Channel] kept popping up with information about the other Tree Masters.
"Everyone, do you have any water over there? I'm so thirsty."
"I want water too. The sun is too bright over here. I feel like I'm going to dehydrate."
"I'm so hungry. Why didn't I eat my fill before I joined the project?"
"We still have to wait for more than a hundred days for the fruit to ripen. If we don't eat for seven days, we'll die; if we don't drink for three days, we'll die. The project didn't give us any benefits either. I'm afraid we'll all die of thirst here first, right?"
"Fortunately, I've chosen the [Rapid Fruit Ripening] talent, which can allow the fruit to ripen earlier. As long as I wait for a few days, I'll have a fruit."
"I envy the person upstairs."
"Why is there such a lucky person? I'm so envious that I'm going to explode!"
"I've chosen an Epic-tier talent! I won't starve to death so early!"
"Tsk, so what if it's an Epic-tier talent? I hope you can go see god soon."
"I don't think there's such a thing as god here."
"I'm so thirsty..."
Many of the Tree Masters who had not chosen a fruit-type talent would probably have to wait until their Divine Tree matured before they could bear fruit.
Looking at the mournful wails in the World Channel, Cole turned his head to look at the glowing sapling. Suddenly, he thought of the [Fantasy Divine Tree] talent he had chosen. It was also a fruit-type talent. He would be able to eat the fruit in a day and a half.
In other words, the food problem that others were having was not a problem for him at all. All he needed to do was wait patiently.
