Chapter 2: The Rapidly Growing Tree of Life

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After Peter planted the seed of the tree of life, he looked at the system interface.

[ tree of life, Level 0/100, growth value 100 days. ]

[ host has received a minimum growth rate of 10 times. ]

He looked at the detailed information of the Tree of life.

Peter immediately understood that it would take 100 days for the tree of life to fully grow into a towering tree.

Only after reaching level 0 could one reach level 100.

In other words, according to the rules of the island world, ordinary humans that entered the island world would have to endure for an additional 70 days after the 30-day protection period before they could harvest the fruits of the tree of life.

This difficulty caused many players that entered the island world to return empty-handed.

Unless, the humans that entered the island world possessed extremely high talent and could rely on their own strength to repel the sea monsters’ attacks time and time again.

Or, they had the support of a financial group behind them to obtain the opportunity to modify their own abilities.

These were the two methods that this world recognized.

Additionally, since thermal weapons can destroy life energy in the island world, they’re prohibited. Therefore, when the humans passed through the teleportation gate, the thermal weapons were directly blocked.

However, there were still some very special groups of people: for example, the humans with superpowers.

They might have superpowers that surpassed normal people’s hearing, allowing them to detect the appearance of sea monsters in advance.

Or, they might have superpowers of memory, allowing them to grasp a large amount of survival knowledge.

These humans had a high chance of surviving until the tree of life bore fruit.

However, Peter had a system that allowed him to surpass other humans in a very short period of time. When he saw that the tree of life had a 100-day growth cycle, Peter immediately used the 10-fold growth increase that the system rewarded him with.

This reduced the 100-day growth cycle to 10 days.

With the 10-fold growth increase, Peter saw that where the seed of life had just been planted, a bud broke through the soil and grew out.

The speed was indeed much faster.

Then, the bud of the Tree of life changed even more. It began to grow rapidly, just like a documentary that chronicled the process of plant growth being played at an accelerated pace.

The seed, which had taken a long time to germinate, grew to a height of nearly one meter in just a few minutes.

This was not the end. The tree of life was still growing crazily.

This scene indeed surprised Peter.

It did not take 100 days at all. It only took about 10 days for the tree of life to fully grow.

However, Peter was most intrigued by his observation that it grew to a height of nearly one meter in just a few minutes. In that case, when the tree of life grew to its maximum height, it would be amazing!

Peter was looking forward to it.

Seeing that the tree of life was growing, he planned to do something else first.

Peter went to the low-lying area of the island, the weakest area of the island’s defense.

Once the protection period was over, the sea monsters in the sea would rush out of the sea and attack the island. They would first land in the low-lying area of the island.

So, Peter planned to set up a barrier here, similar to the one used by the Old World to defend the beach.

He was still not sure what the sea monsters in the sea looked like, nor did he know the methods the sea monsters would use.

However, based on the memories of his previous life, Peter had seen a lot of movies and TV shows about the sea monsters attacking the coast.

What impressed him the most was an epic movie, titled Pirates of the Caribbean.

In the movie, there was a giant squid sea monster that was hundreds of meters long. Captain Jack’s pirate ship, the Black Pearl, had been attacked by a giant squid. The terrifying tentacles of the giant squid could directly cut a pirate ship in half.

Peter had a very deep memory of this scene.

If there were sea monsters in this sea world, he certainly hoped that they weren’t at the level of giant squid. In that case, the island was like an inescapable dining table in front of the giant squid. The creatures and plants on the island were like cooked food, waiting for the giant sea monster to taste it.

If he wanted the island to be safe from the sea monsters, Peter had to prepare in advance.

So, along the low-lying area of the island, he used the tools he brought with him to divide the areas where he was going to build fortifications.

After a period of busyness, the long and narrow coastline was organized into three defense areas.

These three areas in turn extended from the coastline to the rear.

Each defense area would be used in the near future to build buildings to defend the island, to slow down the sea monsters’ attacks.

After doing all this, Peter went to the planting area near the small lake.

Then, he also divided the different areas in turn.

This way, each plant could be divided according to its kind, and it was also beneficial for the management of daily life. This time, Peter entered the island world with a large number of plant seeds.

Because of the limitation of the island world, a person could only carry no more than 50 kg of items. This led many to carefully calculate the number and types of items they could carry to maximize their carriage without exceeding the limit: Peter was no exception. He opened his suitcase and began to organize the items he carried.

There were about 15 kg of compressed food, mainly energy bars with various nutrients mixed together.

There were also 15 kg of various tools and weapons for self-defense, because he could not bring thermal weapons into the island world. This led to many humans bringing cold weapons into the island world, and even some carrying heavy crossbow bolts.

The weapon Peter carried was a dual-purpose engineer shovel. It could also be used as a tool to defend against danger.

The remaining 20 kg carried plant seeds that could absorb life energy. Unlike the human world’s seeds, these seeds were optimized and improved, since the ordinary seeds could not reach the level of absorbing life energy.

The modified plant seeds were also divided into five levels. The higher the level, the faster the efficiency of absorbing life energy —- of course, rarer as well.

High-level seeds, after absorbing life energy, produced very precious fruits. After ordinary humans ate them, not only could they increase their vitality, but they could also strengthen their physique and remove the effects of all diseases.

In the human world, the classification of seeds started from the lowest grade, E grade.

The easiest seed to buy was D grade. As for C grade seeds, it was already very difficult to buy them on the market.

Higher Grade B grade seeds were only in the hands of the various large financial groups.

As for grade seeds, they were basically not for sale anywhere since they were too difficult to improve and didn’t provide particularly good marketability.

Before the system was activated, because Peter did not know about the existence of the system, he carefully bought a lot of seeds.

As for the grade, it was not very high.

Most of them were grade E seeds, and a small portion of them were grade D seeds. As for the more expensive grade C seeds, Peter did not have the ability to buy them.
