Chapter 499 - Goodbye Epic! Marshland’s First Foundational Crop! (Two In One)

Chapter 499 Goodbye Epic! Marshland’s First Foundational Crop! (Two In One)

“Ally Zhu Chuan, please remember to get more people over for a field trip, okay! We Huaxians are very hospitable, so when you come, you will be welcomed with the highest regards!”

“Oh right, if the weather these two days are good, I will probably send more people over to your side for a field trip as well.”

“If possible, I’d like to commence the trading line between us both as soon as possible, so we can hold the fort and defend our lands together from the greedy enemies that are eyeing us!”

Standing at the edge of his territory, Su Mo reached out his hand after he was done speaking and pat Zhu Chuan the Ent affectionately on his shoulder.

Even if the pat was a gentle one, it shook Zhu Chuan the Ent from his core, waking him from the trance he was in.

“No problem, don’t you worry, Chief Su Mo, I’ll be sure to deliver your message across.” “I hope to commence our trading lines as soon as possible as well. With our genuine partnership, it’ll be quick for us to show them the downside of expanding too quickly!”

Waving his branches excitedly, Zhu Chuan the Ent who was 170cm looked like a silly-looking mime.

After a few hours of the field trip, even if all the ‘reservoir’ of the Ents were all squeezed dry, Zhu Chuan no longer sounded cold, courteous, and polite, but filled with immense enthusiasm.

Who would have thought that in the short time of dwelling in the Heavenly Courts, after tasting some “Fairy Peach” and “Fairy Wine”, his abilities would have an immense increment of…

5%!

The 5% should not be underestimated, since Ents have long lives, so their improvement in abilities would be extremely slow.

If it was according to usual progress, at where he was right now, he would need to absorb at least 6 more months of nutrients from the ground to have such improvement.

As for other ordinary Ents, they had greater improvement than he did since the level of their abilities was much lower.

Zhu He, whose level of abilities was lower had not only been healed of the whip injury from before but also had a whopping 15% of the increase in abilities. What a huge leap!

Standing behind Zhu Chuan, they were waving their branches excitingly as well as joyful, contented smiles appeared on their faces.

“It’s time to say goodbye!”

“Set! It’s getting late, I’ll part ways with you guys here then. Safe journey back to your territory, stay safe!”

Zhu Chuan nodded obediently. “Thank you for your generosity, Chief Su Mo! The Old Ents will be Heavenly Court’s loyal ally. We hope to taste the greatness of Heavenly Courts again the next time we come around!”

Su Mo scoffed. “Next time! For sure, for sure!”

Despite the discord earlier, the scene that had unfolded at the edge of territory was a rather harmonious one.

Watching how Su Mo gestured for them to leave, Zhu Chuan led his troops and marched away.

After passing the borders of the marshland, in three to five seconds, all the Ents had regained their usual mode of being sky-high. However, different than before, even if they had grown tall, their faces were still full of respect and humbleness.

They bid their goodbyes lingeringly with Zhu Chuan turning back for a glance every three steps he took. They had left reluctantly, hoping for Su Mo to say something to hold them back.

Alas, even until Su Mo and his people slowly disappeared from their line of sight, all that was left in their minds were…

Su Mo’s smiling face!

“Su Mo, the king of humans is such a generous leader! Not only was he big-hearted, but he was also strong and powerful! No wonder he stood out from so many people.

His previous arrogance was swept clean, and his murmurs had gotten instant agreement from all the other ordinary Ents.

“That’s right, this Heavenly Court may not have their development completed yet, and that’s normal, they have arrived for merely a day or two, that’s all. If they could develop very quickly, something would be very fishy about it.”

“Their Father Thunder and Mother Lightning’s powers are really strong! So strong they could have certain control over the weather in their territory! If only we have someone like this, then we won’t have to worry that we don’t have enough sunshine!”

“You know what, to me, their Fairy Peach is still the best. Its effect is almost identical to the Ten Thousand Leaf!”

“Elder Zhu Chuan is so well prepared to have presents ready! If not, according to how greedy the monsters in their territory are, we won’t even get to see the generous Chief Su Mo!”

“Elder Zhu Chuan is so clever…”

ILII

The group of Ents was just lamenting about Su Mo’s generosity and the Heavenly Court’s formidability, but as they talk, their topic swayed slowly towards Zhu Chuan. This type of indirect bootlicking would call for Zhu Chuan’s yelling normally, but at this time, he accepted it with a chuckle. “All of you are just too young. But those old folks in the tribe have been living for so many years.”

“The humans have a saying that was right, which was ‘To know your opponent’s well is half the battle won’. For us to regain the Ent God’s former glory here on this land, we need to know our enemies well enough.”

“Also, look here, see what this is?” Signaling his troops to stop walking, Zhu Chuan turned back to make sure the territory borders have disappeared, he casually fished out an item from within him like a magic act.

When compared to his body size, the item he had pulled out looked very insignificant, but from the looks of it…

“Hiss, isn’t that the pit of the Fairy Peach we ate?”

“I think so too, mine was kept by the server right after I was done. I was thinking of bringing it back too…” “I remember Elder Zhu Chuan’s pit was also kept back, right? This is…” “Could it be stolen? No right… If Chief Su Mo found out…”

A small peach pit had attracted all the Ents’ attention.

Zooming in on the ordinary peach pit, even if it no longer had flesh on it, all of them could still feel the energy pulsating from the pit. Even if this pulsating energy could not be directly used, it still represented the greatness of potential it carried. If it was traded, after seeing the ready product, the Ents would go all out by hook or by crook to obtain such a meaningful “seed”.

However, for now… “I told you, you are all still too young. All you think about is the war and fighting that the older ones have mentioned, and you scheme against this and that.”

“The times have changed, we need to learn to acquire new knowledge, learn new rules.”

“Haven’t you forgotten… How did we get to finally meet Chief Su Mo?” Caressing his ‘beard’, Zhu Chuan did not get mad at the rest for their speculations.

A natural sense of superiority swelled in his heart. The overpowering feeling knowledge have given him had him feeling arrogant and proud.

“How we got to meet… We had to give presents… Wait, Elder Zhu Chuan, could it be…”

After hearing what he had murmured, Zhu Chuan nodded delightfully. “Not bad, you learn fast.”

“At many times, you don’t need to use violence to achieve your goals.”

“All I did was pay a little price to exchange this little pit from the greedy monsters.”

“So foolish. He did not even know what a great price this pit could fetch if it was traded. I’ve gotten my hands on it for a fraction of the price!”

As he kept the pit, a flash of pained expression fleeted through his face when he mentioned the price paid.

Quickly after that, his pride was filled up once again when he saw the Ents exhibit a shocked expression on their faces. He shook his head slightly and continued his large strides back.

“That old man Zhu Ling, all he knew was to side his own relatives. Only the Reservatives were allowed to make decisions all the time.” “Wait till I, Zhu Chuan go back. I’ll sure show them through what I’ve gotten this trip what it means to be capable!”

With a sneer, Zhu Chuan could almost imagine the shocked, yet helpless faces of the old people in the territory.

What he did not know was, that the marshland that he had just left had become a sea of joyous celebration!

“Haha, Fu Zi, you’ve really put on a good show there! Let me tell you, those naive Ents, when they visited our territory, it’s really like they’re just all height and no brains! All thanks to Chief, all I did was glare at them in the corner of my eye and they were terrified!”

“Hey, so what? I’ve got a whopping amount of eight Food Leaves from them! That idiot was completely wrapped around my little finger!” “Chief is indeed the best. They were so fooled in our virtual reality scene it’s heartbreaking!” “A huge harvest! These Food Leaves could feed us an entire week!”

Even though there were large plots of land around the underground shelter, there were still puddles of water and soft soil even after the villagers’ urgent work was done.

However, since work was done on it to make it uniform, its uniformity made the land pretty pleasing to the eyes. In front of the door of the underground shelter that had only a few rare pieces of Dark Red Food Leaves was now a huge harvest of about three thousand pieces of them!

If calculated based on one leaf providing a person with 2 days of energy, these were enough to last more than 4 days!

There were leaves of three more colors that were gleaming delightfully other than the Food Leaves.

Even if their numbers were lesser by a whole chunk when compared to the Food Leaves, in terms of numbers, it was a no-brainer to know that the value of these leaves would be more precious than the Food Leaves.

No doubt, the marshland had just welcomed a stunning harvest with handsome rewards.

On the other side, the seven of them who were in the Earth Tiger had the same experience.

“Su Yuan, you’ve done your part and you’ve done it well. 10 Food Leaves for you!”

“Pei Shao, 10 for you. Zhang Long, Liu Neng, Li Hu, Chen Shen, 5 for each of you!”

All were rewarded according to the tasks given to them.

On the co-driver seat, every time Su Mo would call out a name, the others would hiss enviously.

However, no matter how many rewards were given out, there was still unsuppressed happiness on each of their faces.

Even Su Mo himself was chuckling in delight. Just like Zhu Chuan who had gotten an energy fruit pit, there was a palm-sized, dark red ball in Su Mo’s hand.

The surface of the ball was etched with many curvy patterns that would emit a dazzling light as Su Mo toyed with it. Su Mo looked at it intently and under the analysis of the system, the ball’s attributes appeared automatically.

[Primitive Food Leaf Seed (Epic-quality / Plant / High Potential)]

[Description]: In the vastness of the universe, there was a tree-shaped planet that was unlike other round planets. On this tree-shaped planet were billions of plants. Their food source was not each other, but something special called a “Food Leaf”. In the circumstances of the absence of sunlight, if they were rooted, they would be able to get sufficient energy and nutrients and had gained the ability to move around freely.

(Grade): Primitive (This is a primitive-grade seed. It was not affected by external measures. A high level of life and stable genetic sequences were still well maintained on the inside. This seed is the best for planting and to cross-plant with to create new species)

(Planting Requirement]: High nutrient soil, sufficient sunlight, high quality water, isolated area

(Quantity Produced): 20-45 per plant

(Unit of Quantity Produced): Pieces

(Growth Time): 25-120 Days (Depending on the condition of the plating requirements) (Special Abilities]:

Dark Red Food Leaves (1 Leaf /2 Days / Humans that has minimum activities, low-grade food ration source. The Food Leaves did not get to continue growing and absorbing nutrients because of the limitation of the planting requirements. Caution: This grade of Food Leaves contains purely energy and does not include any minerals or other requirements needed for any living being to survive. Long-term consumption will lower the quality of living being’s body.)

Light Red Food Leaves (1 Leaf /2 Days / Humans that have moderate laborious activities, entry-level grade food ration source. The Food Leaves did not get to continue increasing in grades even when the absorption of nutrients continued because the planting requirements could not be fulfilled in the long term, causing the energy gathering within the Food Leaf to be unstable. Caution: This grade of Food Leaves contains only a small amount of minerals, just enough to fulfill the requirements needed for any living being to survive. Long term consumption will cause problems like messed-up gene issues from the lack of variety of food)

Dark Yellow Food Leaf (1 Leaf / 2 Days / Humans that has heavy laborious activities, continuous-upgrade grade food ration source. An error has occurred in the energy formula in the Food Leaf due to a single item error from the planting requirements, causing an imbalance in minerals in the Food Leaf and a halt in growth. Caution: This grade of Food Leaf contains the minerals of a balanced meal; long term consumption can fulfill the basic living needs of the living being with no side effects. Can be used as a meal replacement)

Light Yellow Food Leaf (1 Leaf / 3 Days / Humans that has heavy laborious activities. Second-best grade food rations. All the planting requirements were fulfilled, but because it was not immediately consumed and kept for some time, the quality had dropped, causing the minerals within to have some losses. Caution: This grade of Food Leaves contained all the minerals needed for a living being to survive, and it included chlorophyll that could improve the health of living beings in the long run with constant consumption.)

Dark Green Food Leaf (1 Leaf / 7 Days / Humans that has heavy laborious activities. First-grade food rations. All the planting requirements were fulfilled with an explosive amount of minerals within. Caution: Long-term consumption of this Food Leaf could drastically improve the health of the living being and could help improve the chains of genes within to achieve many unthinkable effects.)

Light Green Food Leaf (1 Leaf / 30 Days / Any living being. Top grade food, theoretically, this Food Leaf could replace all the energy needs of any living being, including plants that do not have self-awareness. After consuming said Food Leaf, even plants would awaken with special abilities 100%. Living beings that consume this would get a 100% buff. Caution: Light Green Food Leaves have many benefits, but the exact benefits would require validation after obtaining them)

[Comment]: Grass! (A type of food)

A primitive-grade Food Leaf seed represented endless possibilities.

All he needed to do was plant it and supplement it with its top-notch planting requirements. The first planting would determine the grade of the rest of the Food Leaves.

As for Light Green Food Leaves of the highest grade, Su Mo did not hold too much hope in that after contemplating.

However, thinking about the psychic water he had, Su Mo held very high hopes, as high as 80% of certainty for the Dark Green grade!

As soon as he had succeeded, he would nurture it. Then, the marshland would not only have storage of Food Leaf seeds, but they would also successfully obtain a large amount of high-grade food source.

They could also sell it to other tribes after a system was set in place to get a scary amount of profit/

Compared to the energy fruit trees that could only grow after watering them with psychic water, these Food Leaves were undoubtedly another type of “money producing tree”!

“I was still contemplating on what I should plant here at the marshland, but it seems like such an easy decision now.”

“As long as I can create a sufficient growing environment, in a month’s time, the need for food here in the marshland would be significantly reduced!”

Su Mo was planning for the future. He would never have thought that 100ml of psychic water and a seed from the fruit Oreo had eaten would be able to exchange for such a treasure.

As much as Su Mo wanted to stay calm, he could not help but grip the ball in his hand tightly as his heart was filled with excitement!

It only took 5000 survival points to extract the Ents’ genes from the letter, and it only took 21000 survival points to upgrade the virtual reality devices to pair them with the Ent.

26000 survival points were spent, and under the work of the machines, the Ents had basically no resistance before they were pulled right into virtual reality.

Through the boost psychic water could give to living beings, the marshland mimicked a fake scenario where its capabilities had been upgraded and had successfully pierced through the last mental barrier the Ents had. “Now, what I need to worry about is when there are beings that want to survey the territory from up in the skies and they would find that the marshland was still being developed.”

“But it’s still okay since this whole fiasco would buy me at least a month or two until the marshland had developed enough to have basic defense systems…”

“Even if the Ents were to realize, I won’t be afraid of them seeking revenge, since I have in my hands…”

The building of the territory had basically gone up the right path as soon as the weather factor was out of the picture, and it could be run by subordinates or even by the management team.

Even if Su Mo were to be involved, it would only result in an insignificant boost.

On the contrary, after testing the influence of psychic water on the Ents, Su Mo already had the following trades in mind.

However, to make them into reality, he would still need to see how developed the Ents’ territory was, and what ace they had in their hands.

After taking into consideration that this was the first important step that the marshland took to open a tunnel to the outside world, a bold thought started to brew in Su Mo’s heart like an impending storm!
