Sidel temporarily gave up the idea of using the Earth Elemental Sprite to build the defensive wall.
However, the first Vicious Tide was about to arrive. This made Sidel feel a sense of urgency.
After all, he only had four Elemental Sprites now. Although these four Elemental Sprites could be compared to hundreds or thousands of people, this might not be the case for their combat abilities.
The only one with powerful attacks was Ennareau. The remaining three Elemental Sprites were all support-type sprites who were slightly weaker than Ennareau.
However, he had no other choice now. He could only wait for the Fog Banshees to be born and see if they could give him some surprises.
If that did not work out, Sidel would have to spend money to hire mercenaries to help him fend off the first Vicious Tide.
As the crops he planted continued to mature, the gold coins he would earn in the future would be endless.
Therefore, he prepared some backup plans.
Actually, he did not want to recruit mercenaries if it was not necessary.
After all, there were too many secrets on his island. He could not guarantee that the things on the island would not be leaked out by the mercenaries.
Also, he planned to ask Eliam to buy some cold weapons for him. After the Fog Banshees was born, he could equip his Elemental Sprites and Fog Banshees.
With the appearance of the island world in this world, technology had become very advanced. For example, some rare alloys were now available for sale.
Therefore, it was not difficult for Eliam to get him some weapons.
He had told Eliam about this yesterday. After all, even if Eliam’s company wanted to purchase weapons, it would require some procedures. Thus, he had informed Eliam in advance to prevent affecting the time taken to receive the weapons.
After sorting everything out, Sidel decided to give the Earth Elemental Sprite a name.
“I’ll call you Clarice!”
After thinking for a long time, Sidel finally thought of a name. He felt that this extremely cute name was very suitable for the Earth Elemental Sprite.
Just like that, the Earth Elemental Sprite’s name was decided.
With the addition of a new member, the other three Elemental Sprites were very happy.
Then, they all chattered and taught Clarice how to talk.
Outside, the setting sun dyed the sky red.
Sidel was sitting outside the treehouse, looking at the four Elemental Sprites in front of him.
This scene was extremely beautiful!
Now, there was no need for Sidel to teach the new members how to speak. After staying with Sidel for so long, the three Elemental Sprites who were the first to be born had essentially learned Sidel’s language.
Just like that, Sidel kept watching the sun completely set before it enveloped the entire island in the darkness of the night.
Coral saw that the sky had turned dark. Then, she thoughtfully poured some warm water for Sidel so that he could bathe.
Very quickly…
Sidel, who had taken a shower, fell asleep in the rocking chair in the treehouse.
After all, he had been busy for the entire day. Furthermore, he did not have the endless supply of vitality like the Elemental Sprites.
Hence, he soon fell asleep after lying on the rocking chair.
The next day, the sun rose as usual.
Sidel awoke to the glare of the sun. He shaded his eyes with his hand for a moment, then got up and walked outside.
However, as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw that the ground in front of him had been turned over.
Not only had this happened to the piece of land in front of him, all the soil within his field of vision that could grow crops had been turned over.
Meanwhile, Sarah and Ennareau were flying in the air while continuously throwing seeds into the soil. Carol was in charge of watering them. Finally, Alice closed the layer of soil once again.
Looking at the assembly line-like cooperation in front of him, Sidel nodded with great gratification.
Then, he walked to the crops that had already ripened and plucked all the fruits.
These crops were the most primitive capital for him.
Only after these things were sold could he continue to buy other high-grade seeds.
Although these high-grade seeds were strictly controlled by major corporations, Sidel was not worried. As long as there were enough benefits, he believed that these things would not be difficult to obtain.
Furthermore, after he obtained the title of this year’s Rookie King, there would definitely be people looking to work with him.
At that time, he would be the one with the upper hand. The other party might not agree to excessive conditions, but they would definitely accept some small requests.
Right now, he would not hire others if he could avoid doing so. Instead, he would try his best to do it himself.
After all, he had too many secrets on his island, and it was not yet time to reveal them to the public.
Once these secrets are discovered by others, he would be attacked by the masses. He did not want to see such a thing.
However, such a period of time would not last long. By the time the Fog Banshees were born, Sidel might not need to be so busy anymore.
Fortunately, when harvesting the fruits, Sidel only had to pluck them off and put him into the storage space. This saved him the pain of bearing the load and reduced the time needed to go back and forth.
After a busy day, Sidel finally informed Eliam to come over and acquire the goods.
Interestingly, there was so much to be gained today that Eliam couldn’t take them back all at once.
Hence, the two of them chatted for a while longer.
During their conversation, Sidel learned what Eliam’s company had bought his fruits for.
Only a small portion of the fruits purchased from Sidel would be circulated in the market, while the rest were all used for secondary processing.
The so-called second processing was actually to allow the fruits, which could originally display only a portion of its effects, to fully display its effects instead of losing them due to other reasons.
Take the strawberries that Sidel sold today for example. Under normal circumstances, an ordinary person with a brain disease would be able to slightly alleviate their condition after eating the strawberries, but they might need a large number of strawberries to complete the treatment.
However, after the strawberries were processed a second time by Eliam’s company, they could complete their treatment after consuming only two to three strawberries.
Of course, strawberries that had gone through the second processing were even more expensive.
In fact, after the second processing, the storage time of these strawberries would increase greatly.
As she was leaving, Sidel spoke to Eliam about the issue of the seeds as well.
However, Eliam told him that she needed to ask her superior about this matter. She would reply to him the next time she came over.
Sidel expressed his understanding. Then, he watched Eliam leave.
As Sidel watched Eliam gradually disappear, he knew that Eliam’s company would surely agree.
After all, in the entire island world, C-Grade strawberries could be obtained for the lowest price only at Sidel’s island. Furthermore, they could be obtained in large quantities every day.
Thus, to keep a good supplier like Sidel, Eliam’s company would probably agree.
