[Ding! The Life Fruit has matured.]
Cole stood up abruptly and looked at the divine tree. He saw a golden-red fruit that was shimmering with light hanging on the branch of the tree.
"Is this the Life Fruit? It looks so beautiful."
[The Life Fruit can hatch all kinds of life, and it can also be seeded into a secondary Divine Tree.]
[Incubation Time: 3 days (Can be accelerated)]
"As expected, it can be planted! This way, when I plant a Life Fruit, it can hatch a thousand lives for me to control."
Cole immediately picked the fruit and dug a pit beside one of the puddles to plant the fruit.
The moment Cole covered the fruit with soil, a large tree instantly broke out of the ground, and red fruits were hanging on the branches.
"F*ck, this is too awesome. It started to breed so quickly? Awesome."
Then, an interface of the secondary Divine Tree appeared in front of Cole
[Life Fruit Tree]
[Type: Secondary Divine Tree]
[Product: Life Fruit]
[Cycle: 3.55 days (Can be accelerated)]
[Number of Times of Production: 1]
[Quantity of Productions: 1,000]
"Sure enough, it can be accelerated. Then pour rainwater for the big tree!"
Cole rushed back to the small mud hut and took out two earth bowls from the corner of the small mud hut. He continuously poured rainwater from the puddle on the big tree.
[The Life Fruit Tree is absorbing rainwater. Growth Cycle -0.01 days.]
[The Life Fruit Tree is absorbing rainwater. Growth Cycle -0.01 days.]
[The Life Fruit Tree is absorbing rainwater. Growth Cycle -0.01 days.]
...
Cole was lying on the ground, his body dirty. The rainwater stored in a puddle had been used up, and there was still half an hour before the Life Fruit matured.
"The earth bowl isn't hard enough. It's turned into dust. I have to consider whether I should find some tools in the Otherworld that can hold water."
After eating a few more Energy Fruits to quench his thirst, Cole suddenly saw another fruit that was glowing with purple light on the Divine Tree.
"Hmm? Could it be another intermediate Energy Fruit?"
He opened the [Divine Tree] interface and clicked on [Fruit]
[Product: Ability Fruit]
[Production Cycle: 1.5/day]
"What fruit? It actually requires a one and a half day production cycle? And there's no option to speed it up?"
Cole scratched his head. Since it was half a day longer than the growth cycle of the Life Fruit and the Cultivation Fruit, its strength should not be that weak. He would know when he ate it.
"Maybe I won't just eat it myself? Anyway, there are still four planting spots for the secondary Divine Trees. I'll plant it again and let my subordinates eat it."
"Oh right, there's one more thing to be resolved. How am I going to communicate with my subordinates after they enter the Otherworld?"
Cole held his chin. With the tree of the Life Fruit, unless he used some technological equipment to communicate, even if he had many subordinates, they would be like blind people in the Otherworld. It would be useless.
"As expected, this communication problem needs to be solved, but I can't do anything about it now. Let's put up a few Energy Fruits first and see if anyone is willing to exchange things from the Otherworld."
As he thought about it, Cole reached out and opened the Trading Mall. Just as he was about to put up the Energy Fruits, he suddenly realized that there were already people putting up the fruits in the Trading Mall.
After these few days, a portion of the Tree Masters had already obtained some tools that could allow the Divine Tree to grow by exploring the Otherworld.
Moreover, a portion of the Tree Masters who had chosen high-level fruits also had excess fruits that could be traded.
Cole opened the fruit that had been put on the shelf in the trading mall.
[Tree Master: Fairy Tales Are All Lies]
[Item: Shared Fruit]
[Type: Ability Fruit]
[Effect: Able to share vision, hearing, touch, and smell with a pet.]
[Requirement: Requires fruit that can increase energy.]
"This kind of fruit is of little value to others, but..."
Cole smiled and looked at the Life Fruit that would mature in a few minutes.
"Not to me."
Cole quickly sent a link to [Fairy Tales Are All Lies].
[[Fairy Tales Are All Lies] has accepted the link.]
Without any nonsense, he went straight to the main topic.
"I want to exchange fruits with you. How many Energy Fruits do you need?"
[Fairy Tales Are All Lies] immediately recognized that Cole was the first big boss to put the fruits on the shelf.
He had to hold on to this thigh of his. [Fairy Tales Are All Lies] quickly typed.
"Big shot, I need two Energy Fruits. Big shot, can I add you as a friend? My talent is that the [Ability Fruit Tree] can grow many Ability Fruits."
Cole touched his chin. He had seen the [Ability Fruit Tree] talent before. It was an Epic-tier one, and it could grow different Ability Fruits. It was two levels lower than his Fantasy Fruit, but it was still not bad.
It seemed that it was not impossible for him to become his power supplier.
"Okay, but you can't tell anyone about me adding you as a friend."
"No problem, Boss! Let's trade then."
Cole clicked to confirm the trade. There were two low-level Energy Fruits missing from the warehouse, and a yellow fruit appeared in his hand. The skin of the fruit had a shape like a bicycle.
[Ding! You have obtained a Shared Fruit (Can be planted)]
Turning off the transaction interface Cole shook the shared fruit in his hand and stuffed it into the pit of the energy fruit tree.
[Shared Fruit Tree]
[Species: Secondary Divine Tree]
[Product: Shared Fruit]
[Cycle: 0.5 days]
[Number of Times Produced: 1]
[Quantity of Productions: 1,000]
"It only takes half a day to produce fruit. Doesn't that complement my subordinates?"
Cole patted the tree in satisfaction.
There were still ten minutes until the Life Fruit Tree fully matured. Cole looked at the tree and rubbed his hands in anticipation.
"I wonder what kind of life will be born? I'm very curious."
Just as Cole decided to spend the ten minutes waiting, another message appeared in front of his eyes.
[[Xuebang Xiaowei] invites you to trade.]
"Xuebang Xiaowei? Why would she suddenly send me an invitation to trade? Did she get something good from another world?"
Cole opened the trade chat page.
What appeared in the other party's trade box was a bag of gray stuff.
[Fertilizer brought back from the cemetery.]
[Effect: Increases the growth rate of the secondary Divine Tree.]
"Holy crap, did this little girl really go to a village? And she even went to the graveyard? Awesome!"
Cole truly admired Xuebang Xiaowei's courage, but he really needed to get the fertilizer to speed up the ripening of the fruits.
He quickly typed in the chatbox.
"I just happen to need this thing. How many energy fruits do I need?"
"Ten Energy Fruits."
"Five. I can't take out that many fruits right now."
Although he could accept no matter how much Xuebang Xiaowei demanded, he just wanted to know where the bottom line was for Xuebang Xiaowei to accept the deal.
"Eight."
"Six. I don't have many. I still need to eat them myself."
