Chapter 3: Planting the Treehouse

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

By the time he woke up, the sun had already risen. Xu Xin looked at his calves and arms and wiped off the dried crushed herbs. The scratches on them had completely disappeared, as if he had never been injured.

“It’s so effective,” Xu Xin sighed. Even the herbs in his original world did not have such rapid effects.

The sky had just brightened, and Xu Xin quickly got up and walked out of the cave. Even though he was still in the novice protection period, he was subconsciously a little nervous about this cave, so he left as soon as he could.

Munching on an apple and berries, Xu Xin returned to the stream and continued downstream again.

After a day of walking, the stream was no longer the small stream it was at the start. It was gradually becoming wider and deeper, reaching a depth of about a meter. At a glance, he could see many fish and shrimp in the water, which made Xu Xin quite hungry.

However, he did not waste his energy on this. The most important thing now was to find fertile soil.

Along the way, other than seeing five patches of ordinary soil, the rest were all barren, which he found quite strange.

He had been walking for so long and had not seen fertile soil, let alone the other survivors who did not have the Creator’s ability. It was basically impossible to find fertile soil, even ordinary soil, by feeling, unless they had the same ability as him.

Could it be that this world didn’t plan on letting them grow high-grade treehouses?

Thinking of this, Xu Xin was suddenly excited.

If he could find fertile soil and grow a high-grade treehouse, wouldn’t that mean that his starting point would be much higher than most people?

Great.

He would try to find fertile soil today. Xu Xin didn’t want to stay out in the open any longer. He wanted to live in a treehouse.

As they continued walking, Xu Xin began to think about the pattern of the soil and the resources.

So far, he had only seen two colors, white and green. White-grade resources were one level lower than green. He had found the five patches of green-grade ordinary soil after he found the green-grade plants, because those plants grew in ordinary soil.

However, not all green-grade plants grew in ordinary soil. They might also grow in barren soil.

In other words, barren soil (white) was usually grown with white-grade plants, but there was also a chance that green-grade plants grew there too. As for ordinary soil (green), they were mostly grown with green-grade plants.

There was also a chance that higher grade plants could grow there.

As he was deep in thought, Xu Xin’s vision was suddenly filled with a vast expanse of green. He was overjoyed, could it be …

He quickly ran forward and looked at the place where the green light was coming from and was instantly overjoyed.

“A lake! I knew there would be a lake!” Xu Xin was so excited that he almost jumped.

The area around the lake was much flatter than the area around the stream, so it was more suitable for settling down. Moreover, since there was a lake, the surrounding resources must be very rich. He might even be able to find a patch of fertile soil.

A thousand meters wasn’t that far, and Xu Xin quickly reached the edge of the lake. Looking at the rippling surface and the view that finally widened, he let out a long sigh of relief, his entire body feeling relaxed.

The lake wasn’t small at all. Of course, it couldn’t be compared to a lake formed from large rivers, but it was still the size of a normal reservoir. The water was clear, and the center of the lake seemed deep, but the shore was shallow. All sorts of fish and prawns swam in the water, and there were patches of reeds growing by the side of the lake. There were even lotus leaves and flowers on the surface. If not for his current situation, Xu Xin would have thought he was in a park.

[Reed (green): A plant that grows by the lake. It seems to be the raw material of a certain tool.]

[Lotus Root (green): A type of food that can be eaten raw or cooked.]

“Good stuff!” A type of raw material and a type of food, this was really the best place to settle down. However, was there any fertile soil in the surroundings…

Xu Xin scanned his surroundings. Suddenly, a blue light appeared in his field of vision.

“Yes!” Xu Xin jumped up and charged towards the blue light.

The distance between the shrubs that were glowing with a blue light and the lakeside was only a few dozen meters.

[Big Red Berry (blue): A fruit that can be eaten raw. It tastes sweet and sour and has the effect of improving eyesight. Eating it will give you two hours of night vision.]

“F*ck!” Xu Xin was shocked once again, “Blue-grade red berries have such an effect?”

However, this wasn’t the main point. Xu Xin continued to read …

[Fertile Soil (blue): A piece of fertile soil with rich organic matter and other nutrients. It is rare even in the jungle.]

“Nice!” Xu Xin clenched his fists in excitement.

After calming himself down, Xu Xin did not rush to plant his seed. Instead, he walked around the lake to see if there were any other patches of fertile soil.

To his disappointment, at least around the lake, there seemed to be only this patch of fertile soil. There were many patches of ordinary soil though, much more than the around the stream. Almost half of the land here was ordinary soil. At a glance, the proportion of green light was not much less than white light, and there were also a few scattered blue lights, which were blue-grade plants growing in ordinary soil.

His guess should be correct. The soil of a certain grade could not only grow plants of the same grade but also, to a certain probability, plants of a higher grade.

It seemed that places like this lake were suitable areas for planting treehouses that the survivors had to find. Although there was only one patch of fertile soil, patches of ordinary soil (green) were everywhere. As long as the survivors found such an area, they could at least minimize the probability of growing “short treehouses”.

After all, just the name “short treehouse” gave off a sense of insecurity.

After searching around for a long time to no avail, Xu Xin didn’t waste any more time. He went back to the blue-grade red berry tree and picked all of the big red berries, counting a total of 32. Then he hesitated and decided not to dig out the berry bush. He simply dug a small pit next to it and planted the walnut-sized treehouse seed.

After all, the patch of fertile soil was one meter by one meter, and the remaining half had no plants.

[The treehouse seed has been successfully planted. Growing time remaining: 2 hours]

[Wild plants that grow in the same patch of soil have been automatically removed.]

The first notification made Xu Xin’s eyes light up, but the second one made him disappointed. As expected, it wouldn’t work. It seemed that a patch of soil could only grow one type of plant.

The big rec berry bush disappeared without a trace in an instant, and a small seedling drilled out of the soil. It began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than a minute, it had grown into a small sapling.

Xu Ke gasped in amazement. This growth speed was really too amazing.
