Chapter 8: The Tree of Life’s New Growth Spurt
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Peter saw that the tree spirit was working hard to plant the plants, so he didn’t care. He went to the lake and called for the mermaid.
The little guy had just finished eating the life energy, so he was still very energetic. He had fun playing alone in the lake, and when he saw Peter calling for him, he immediately swam to the lake.
Peter now planned to make a simple place for the mermaid to sleep before it was dark.
He couldn’t let the mermaid sleep in the lake, especially if the mermaid felt comfortable after being out of the water for a long time.
Peter first asked the mermaid and got the answer that it could sleep without being in the water.
So he dug through the box he brought in and found the material used to build the parasol.
The mermaid seemed to understand that Peter was going to make a place for it to sleep.
Pop! Pop!
Hearing the mermaid’s call, Peter looked over. He saw the mermaid pointing at the tent not far away.
HMM?
This little guy also wants to sleep in the tent?
Peter got down on one knee and dragged the mermaid to the tent with both hands.
The mermaid was also very happy in his palm and kept twisting her pink tail.
When Peter got into the tent, the mermaid saw a sleeping bag inside. She jumped from Peter’s palm to the sleeping bag out of curiosity and got into the sleeping bag.
Peter didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this scene. The little guy was really smart. He knew how to use the sleeping bag just by looking at it.
However, Peter thought that the mermaid was still small and was afraid that if he didn’t turn over and crush the mermaid while he was sleeping, it would be bad.
So, Peter came out of the tent and found a canvas and a few metal brackets.
He returned to the tent and made a simple hammock for the mermaid with the materials in his hands. Then, he took the mermaid out of the sleeping bag and put it in the hammock.
The little guy was very smart and immediately understood Peter’s intention.
Peter used scissors to cut off the excess parts of the sleeping bag and used it as a quilt to cover the mermaid.
After all the work was done, Peter carried the mermaid to the water purifier.
He boiled the purified water and made a cup of coffee.
The mermaid also smelled the aroma of the coffee. She stuck out her little head and stared at the coffee with her big eyes.
It looked delicious.
Haha!
Peter slowly put the cup close to the mermaid’s little mouth and watched her tentatively stick out her little tongue to lick the coffee.
Pop! Pop!
The mermaid, who had just tasted coffee for the first time, was crying so much that she doubted whether the fish was alive.
Her delicate little face was squeezed together with her facial features, making a painful look.
Peter took out the sugar cubes from the bag and put them into the coffee. After stirring it, he signaled the mermaid to taste it again.
This time, the little guy looked at him with a puzzled look, but he had seen Peter putting sugar into the coffee just now.
Although he didn’t know what Peter put in the coffee, the little guy decided to trust Peter again.
Pop! Pop!
This time, the mermaid’s eyes lit up when she tasted the coffee with sugar.
Next, she put her little mouth into the cup again, and even her whole little head.
Peter simply put the mermaid and the coffee cup on the table, and let her drink it slowly.
He made another cup of coffee and took out another energy bar and ate it.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened as the afterglow of the sunset touched the island.
Under the huge shade of the tree, Peter and the mermaid drank their coffee, and occasionally looked at the five tree spirits who were working hard to cultivate. It was simply too beautiful.
When it was completely dark, the five tree spirits finally planted all the seeds in the bag. Because these five tree spirits were originally part of the Tree of life, after finishing their work, they ran back into the tree trunk.
This saved a lot of trouble —- at least Peter didn’t have to worry about the tree spirits’ residence.
And this concluded the day.
Peter carried the mermaid into the tent, because of drinking a lot of coffee, the person and fish were not sleepy.
At this time, the mermaid saw Peter take out a book from the box.
He was going to try to teach the mermaid how to read and speak.
For the intelligence shown by the mermaid, Peter felt that it should not be difficult for the mermaid to master words and language.
Sure enough, after Peter taught the mermaid a few words, it quickly remembered, although the pronunciation was not very accurate. It was still a big improvement.
Peter let the mermaid look at his mouth and said, “Eat!”
Pop!
The mermaid imitated Peter’s mouth and said the first word she learned.
“Rice… rice.”
“Not rice porridge, it’s rice.”
“Rice… Rice!”
Haha, Peter laughed happily when he heard the mermaid correct her pronunciation very quickly.
After a few hours of personal teaching, the mermaid had mastered a few dozen commonly used words.
If he taught the mermaid a few more times during his free time, Peter felt that the mermaid would be able to talk to him normally.
Then, the man and the fish both entered their dreams.
The third day, early morning.
Peter, who was sleeping, was awakened by a strange sound outside the tent.
He opened his eyes and first went to check on the mermaid sleeping in the hammock.
Seeing that the mermaid was still sleeping, he felt much more at ease.
Then, Peter crawled out of the sleeping bag and walked out of the tent.
The scene in front of him made Peter’s mouth widen.
The trunk of the Tree of life grew a lot thicker.
It caused the crackling sound of wood coming from the trunk, and it was this sound that woke him up.
Peter immediately opened the interface of the Tree of life.
[ tree of life ]
[ level ] : 10/100. (increased by 5 levels compared to before)
[ life energy ] : 1,000 points per day. [ life energy can be used to nurture and level up creatures. 300 life energy can be used to nurture a creature. ]
[ tree spirit ] : 5 points per day. [ short tree spirit, very good at growing various plants. ]
[ energy defense tower ] : construction requires 500 life energy points and 100 units of Energy Crystals.
Peter saw that the tree of life had not only reached level 10, but it also had a new function.
Energy Defense Tower! This was a sharp weapon to defend the island.
He just didn’t know how the energy defense tower really works, but that wouldn’t really matter.
Peter couldn’t wait any longer. He wanted to see the defensive effect of the energy defense tower as soon as possible.
Then, Peter went into the tent and saw that the little mermaid had woken up.
“Elsa! Wake Up.”
Peter had given the mermaid a name last night, Elsa.
“Eat!”
The mermaid got up from the hammock, and the first thing she said was that she wanted to eat.
“…”
“You really are a little foodie!” Peter used his finger to scratch the Little Mermaid’s nose gently, causing the mermaid to sneeze.
Achoo!

“…”
Peter could only carry the mermaid down from the hammock and walk out of the tent since the mermaid had no legs.
There were many things to do today.
First, after the mermaid finished eating her life energy, she had to start mining energy crystals at the bottom of the lake.
