“Why don’t you try another one, Big Brother?”
“No need. This one’s pretty good. Do you have any other fruits here?”
“Yes! I do!”
In the end, Cole took away a Gasoline Fruit and a Crystal Fruit.
Following that, Cole went to the manor of four other people and helped them build a solid earth wall. Although the earth wall could only resist the creatures of the Otherworld for a short period of time, for these Tree Masters… This earthen wall was their greatest sense of security.
After returning to his own manor, Cole saw his doppelganger that had returned.
“The food has already been sent over. I’ve also gotten some news while I’m at it.”
“Tell me about it.”
Cole and his doppelganger walked back to the small wooden house. His doppelganger took the Energy Fruit from Cole’s hand and spoke as he ate.
“It seems that the country that we’ve taken root in has started to mobilize troops. I heard that they’ve discovered a new world and are planning to send troops to take a look.”
“Foreign countries are sending troops? Could it be that they are going to invade our manors?”
“Not necessarily. I heard from those adventurers that the mobilization of troops this time will take at least half a year.”
“Half a year’s mobilization time? Then this country’s actions are too slow. You don’t have to care so much.”
Cole took out the Gasoline Fruit from the warehouse and threw it up and down.
“With this fruit, Fire Crystals, and incendiary bombs, it’s done.”
“Use incendiary bombs to burn those guys? I’ll back you up.”
“There are also Gold Fruits and Crystal Fruits. These should be the things I’ve chosen to make a fortune in the Otherworld later.”
“Everyone loves gold, but don’t you think these things are useless in battle?”
“I’ve also taken quite a few things that are useful in battle. I’ll let those invaders know what modern warfare is.”
“Then do you need me to go to the Otherworld again? John and those guys haven’t returned yet.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already given them orders. They’ll be back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The Equipment Fruits that I took from others have also been planted. Now, all that’s missing is this fruit.”
“There are two spots left for the secondary Divine Trees? After the Gasoline Fruit is planted, there should be another secondary Divine Tree’s fruit that you’ve already planted?”
Cole scratched his head and laughed twice.
“Because John and the others still need the energy to replenish, so I planted the other Energy Fruit Tree.”
“Then there’s only one spot left for the Gasoline Fruit.”
“Don’t worry, there’ll be an empty spot tomorrow. There’s also a large pile of wood that can be used as a new villa.”
“I’d rather lie on a soft bed.”
Cole clapped his hands, and the doppelganger in front of him disappeared in an instant.
“It’s said to be born from worries and die from happiness. Let’s not think about those things for now.”
Lying on the small wooden bed, Cole played around while opening the World Channel.
“Join the Iron-Black Alliance! Join us and we’ll protect you!”
“The Outer City of Xuebang will fight against the invasion of the Otherworld with you! Join us!”
“An, they’re sending us a message to join organizations again. There should be quite a number of people joining.”
“Who knows? I don’t want to join any of them. Who knows if I’ll be pushed to the front as a pawn if I join the organization?”
“That’s true. There’s no contract at this time. If we run out of resurrections, we’ll really die.”
“But it’s not bad for the weaker ones to band together.”
“Some of the weaker ones don’t want to join. Forget it, it’s already late. That day will come anyway! Everyone, come on! Let’s go to the Otherworld again!”
“I’ll go too. Let’s see if I can bring some life-saving tools.”
“The rest are all boring speeches. The strength of the enemy can only be discovered when the enemy launches an attack. Now that everyone has seen the enemy’s strength in an invincible way, it’s not bad. It’s just quite tiring.”
Cole turned off the World Channel, rolled over on the small wooden window, and slowly closed his eyes.
Three days to the world invasion.
Cole woke up with a notification sound.
[Ding! Life Fruit Tree has matured. Life Fruit x1000]
[Ding! Weapon Fruit Tree has matured. Weapon Fruit x1000]
[Ding! Equipment Fruit Tree has matured. Equipment Fruit x1000]
[Ding! Gasoline Fruit Tree has matured. Gasoline Fruit x1000]
…
“Damn it, can’t this notification sound be canceled?!”
Cole covered his ears with his hands and wanted to sleep again. However, the notification sound was still ringing. Cole almost instantly stood up from the wooden bed and punched the ground.
Bang!
A big hole appeared in front of him.
“Do this to me when I’m sleeping soundly! My Mariana Trench!”
“Commander?”
A B1 Battle Droid poked its head out from the door.
“Ah?!”
Cole looked at it unhappily, and the B1 Battle Droid immediately retracted its head.
“Uh… That guy John is back, Commander.”
“Got it.”
Cole took a deep breath and walked out of the small wooden house.
At this moment, John and its men were standing on the open ground, quietly waiting for Cole. In front of them was a pile of items that they had collected over the past few days.
There was no need to mention some items that could reduce the growth cycle of the Divine Tree. They had even obtained Water Crystals and Earth Crystals, not to mention the Fire Crystals that they had obtained from hunting wild boars.
“Commander, we’re back.”
John raised its head high like a general. Cole nodded at it.
“Well done. You’ve harvested so many things, and you didn’t lose a single person. I was right about you.”
Cole picked up a white bead about the same size as the ink bead.
[White Bead]
[Able to reduce the growth period of light-type fruit. It has a strengthening effect on the Life Fruit.]
“Aiya, why didn’t you come earlier?”
Cole shook the White Bead, feeling a little regretful. Then, with a wave of his hand, he collected all these resources.
“Not bad without you all. Now, I will give the five hundred people who have excellent combat skills a chance to level up. Those who feel that their combat skills are excellent enough, step forward.”
John was the first to step forward. Among the remaining nine hundred people, five hundred B1 Battle Droids stepped out of the line.
“Five hundred people line up and squeeze out the energy of the Ability Fruit.”
Five hundred B1 Battle Droids took the purple Ability Fruit from Cole’s hands and stuffed it into their own extruder.
As the energy from the Ability Fruit was continuously transferred from the extruder to their entire bodies, the five hundred B1 Battle Droids’ bodies were filled with purple lightning. John was trembling as it made sounds as if it was leaking electricity.
“I, I, I… I feel that I’m… stronger now..”
