nAfter this round of maturity, the coffee tree would need a week to bear fruit again.

nHowever, the territory’s unique building, the forest plantation, could increase production.

nHe looked at its construction price.

n1000 units of wood and stone resources.

nThe stones were easy to deal with, as they were available now.

nAs for woods, he had used up all of them after recruiting a wave of Kobolds and Rangers yesterday.

nHowever, with more than a hundred Kobolds working at full speed, the wood accumulation speed was still quite fast.

nThe Kobolds could cut down about 7 to 8 units of wood or collect 10 to 12 units of fiber in a day.

n1000 units of wood. Over 100 Kobolds would only need a day to gather them.

nVery stable!

nBack in front of the lord’s manor.

nJi Chen began to gather the army.

nOn the last day of the week, they explored the three sub-islands in the northeast.

nIn this case, only the mountain peaks in the entire archipelago had not been visited, and they would be placed at the finale.

nHe had a feeling that he would encounter some very powerful enemies on the mountain peak.

nWith the current strength of the army, it might be a little difficult to deal with them.

nTherefore, it was better for him to obediently finish the last three sub-islands and increase his strength before heading there.

nHe was about to leave with his army.

nAnina walked out from the side of the house, rubbing her eyes as she asked curiously.

n“Where are you going?”

n“We’re going to the wild to hunt monsters.” Ji Chen smiled. “Anina, did you rest well last night? Is there a place where we can receive you?”

n“No, 1 rested well.” Anina shook her head.

nBut there was one thing she didn’t say.

nThis was the first time she had slept on such a comfortable and soft bed. In the past, she had always slept directly on the beach of a deserted island…

nMoreover, the food here was also very delicious. It was the best food she had eaten in the past ten years.

n“You’re going to kill monsters? Then I’ll go with you.”

n“But you are a guest…”

n“It’s okay. When you said that you wanted to protect the territory yesterday, you also meant to protect yourself.” Anina waved her hand casually.

nJi Chen hesitated, but when he saw the anticipation on her face, he nodded.

nIt just so happened that he also wanted to see the strength of a Purple Rare Hero.

nHowever, he suddenly felt a grip on his arm.

nHe looked down and saw Alice hugging his right arm tightly. She was looking at Anina with a slightly hostile look in her eyes.

nWas this child jealous?

nJi Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He patted the little Siren’s head and comforted her.

nHowever, Anina’s attention was also attracted by Alice. Her red eyes were filled with curiosity.

nShe had noticed this beautiful girl with fins on her ears yesterday.

n“What race is she from?”

n“Alice is a Siren.”

n“So, she’s a Siren… What?”

nThe Dragon Whale girl’s mouth opened wide. Her eyes were filled with surprise.

nHer face, which had a little baby fat, puffed up. She looked very cute.

nJi Chen was curious about her reaction, so he asked her why.

nAnina took a while to recover and explained with a complicated look in her eyes.

n“The Sirens are an extremely rare race in the sea. Their numbers are basically no more than two digits. They are born with the ability to bewitch the mind and control living creatures, so they are not very popular with other races.”

n“Moreover, there are rumors in the ocean that once you are entangled with or close to the Siren, you will encounter endless misfortune…”

n“But now, such a young Siren is actually beside a human like you. That’s why I’m so surprised.”

nThe population of the tribe does not exceed two digits?

nSo rare?

nJi Chen was surprised.

nWhat kind of luck was it that he managed to fish Alice out of the sea?

nBewitching the mind…

nCould it be Alice’s Song of Temptation?

nBut the effect of the song did not seem to have reached the level of bewitching…

nCould it be that she only possesses this ability after fully maturing?

nAnd what misfortune… Alice has been here for so many days. He was more inclined to believe that this was just a rumor about three people becoming a tiger.

nSoon, he shook his head and said with a firm gaze.

n“I don’t believe this rumor. No matter what, Alice is already a part of the territory. This is her home.”

nUpon hearing Ji Chen’s words, Alice hugged him even tighter and rested her head on his shoulder.

nThere was a hint of pride in her eyes as he looked at Anina.

n“… As you wish, don’t blame me for not reminding you when the time comes.” The Dragon Whale girl said with a nonchalant expression.

nHowever, when she looked at Alice, a hint of envy appeared in her eyes.

nHome.

nA distant and unfamiliar word…

n“Alright, let’s set off now.”

nJi Chen, who hadn’t noticed the Dragon Whale girl’s strange behavior, waved his arm and led everyone away.

nSoon, they arrived at the beach where they had met Anina yesterday.

nThat mountain of corpses made from Sea Heir’s corpses was burned to ashes, leaving behind a much smaller pile of ash.

nAs the sea breeze peeled away layer by layer, the ashes flew and scattered everywhere, becoming fertilizer for the trees and weeds.

nWithout lingering there, they continued to move forward along the beach.

nHeading towards the northeast.

nThe terrain on the left changed from a gentle jungle to a steep cliff. On the cliff that was dozens of meters high, many birds were building their nests in the cracks.

nAfter walking all the way, they gradually saw the three sub-islands in the northeast.

nThe reason why Ji Chen didn’t borrow a canoe from the natives was simple.

nThe sea receded during the day, and the water level dropped.

nA very long and narrow tidal flat would be exposed on the sea between the main island and the northeast island.

nAt this time, even if they did not use a boat, they could easily walk over with their feet.

nWalking on this tidal flat, the clear blue water on both sides gave him a wonderful feeling.

nSpeaking of which, the scenery of this archipelago was quite good.

nThere were giant forests that were hundreds of meters tall, primitive jungles, rugged and complex caves, mountain peaks that reached into the clouds, white sandy beaches that stretched for ten miles, and this marvelous tidal flat in the sea.

nJi Chen couldn’t help but inwardly sigh.

n“If this world could develop tourism, wouldn’t 1 become rich?”

nAfter passing through the tidal flat, the group arrived at the first sub-island in the northeast.

nUnlike the northwestern sub-islands, the three northeastern sub-islands had many traces of civilization.

nThe ruins of buildings were hidden in the dense vegetation, giving off a desolate look.

nHe could vaguely see the ruins of city walls and towers.

n“Could this have once been a military facility?”

nJi Chen pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and led the army in.

nOn the Omniscience map, a large number of red dots were already displayed in the ruins.

nHowever, the enemies were a bit different from what he expected.

nSkeleton Monster
