Chapter 113: Laura is back (1)
Translator: 549690339
In the next three days, Zhao Hai obediently stayed in Rocky Mountain. In these three days, including the half a day from before, Zhao Hai harvested eleven seasons of radishes. Two seasons were six mu, and the remaining nine were eight mu. He also harvested two magic peaches, but he didn’t continue to plant them because he didn’t need them. The four were enough.
In the past three days, he had harvested two batches of oil fruits. Now, Zhao Hai wasn’t worried anymore. He didn’t have enough radishes. The radishes in his interspace were enough to trade with Laura for ten times.
Most importantly, Zhao Hai still had 30000 mature huttlefish in his warehouse. This was even after Zhao Hai had controlled the reproduction rate of the huttlefish. Otherwise, the number would have been even higher.
In addition, there were 300 mature rabbits, 1000 baby rabbits, 10 mature scaled-horned horses, and 600 foals. These were all products under Zhao Hai’s control. If he didn’t control them, the amount would be even higher.
Zhao Hai had underestimated the reproductive ability of a thousand animals after being digitized. A thousand animals would reproduce every few hours on the farm. After more than 70 hours of reproduction, the number would be terrifying.
However, Zhao Hai was no longer raising the hingkies. The reason why only a few of the unicorn and blue-eyed rabbits had matured these days was that he had given the hingkies all the time to mature.
Although there were only 30000 hingkies now, which was a drop in the bucket for the entire Ark continent, it was not a small number at all. If he really put all 30000 hingkies on the ark continent, it would cause a sensation because the entire continent’s annual production of hingkies was less than 30000.
Zhao Hai knew that if they were to put all 30000 huokuozhongs into the ark market, they would be doomed. All the nobles on the continent would look for them, and they would not even know how they died.
By now, Zhao Hai had already collected 300 blue-eyed rabbits. These 300 adult rabbits had all given birth. Zhao Hai had no intention of buying them. Instead, he planned to keep them and use them to treat the slaves to a good meal of meat!
Meat. To those slaves, meat was a rare thing. Not to mention these slaves, even their fathers and grandfathers might not have eaten meat.
Of course, this was referring to those family slaves, which meant that their ancestors had been slaves, not slaves like ju he an. Before they became slaves, they could still eat the meat of long-haired pigs and blue-eyed rabbits.
However, Zhao Hai had spent quite a bit of food in the past three days. However, this food was nothing to him. He could handle it with radish leaves.
Although the blue-eyed rabbit was a magical beast, its meat did not have the same effects as the magic vegetables. Zhao Hai and the others tried to make a rabbit meat to taste, but it was not the case at all. The blue-eyed rabbit meat in the medium did. Not only did it taste good, but it also had an abundance of magic power. It was very beneficial for the cultivation of magic power and battle energy.
It was even more so for the hingyu. Not only was it delicious, but the benefits it brought were even more amazing than the blue-eyed rabbit’s. Eating the hingyu’s meat was almost equivalent to eating some magic potions.
The middle scaled wildebeest seemed to have changed as well. Not only did it have amazing endurance, but it could also run very fast. If the middle scaled wildebeest could only be used to carry things in the past, the middle scaled wildebeest could now be used as a war Horse.
All these changes were related to the space. The space had improved some of the shortcomings of animals, and at the same time, everything produced in the space had become tonic-like things with strong magic.
To Zhao Hai and the others, this was definitely good news. The things produced in the realm had such an ability. It would be very beneficial for the team to build an army in the future.
In the past three days, Zhao Hai had been keeping an eye on the situation in Casar city. The biggest disadvantage for them was that they did not have an intelligence network in Casar city, which made them deaf and blind.
But now, they really didn’t have a suitable person to be their son. After all, they didn’t have manpower. His men of sacrifice were all undead creatures and couldn’t appear in the city. If Zhao Chong and the others were to disguise themselves as Black Mages, they couldn’t either. Casar city was too sensitive to Black Mages now. If a Black Mage appeared, they would definitely investigate with all their might and might reveal some flaws.
However, Grimm still arranged for those men of sacrifice to stand guard outside of Kass city. First, it was to prevent people from attacking them, and second, it was to wait for Laura.
The most important thing for Zhao Hai and the others right now was to deal with Laura. Therefore, they needed to know when she would return.
Of course, knowing when Laura would return did not mean that he had to meet her. Zhao Hai only wanted to know when she would return, and at the same time, he was testing her.
They had saved Laura’s life. If she took the initiative to meet them after returning, it would mean that she was a person who knew how to repay kindness. Zhao Hai and the others could further cooperate with her.
If Laura didn’t come to find them, they would still work with her, but it wouldn’t be too deep. It would just be a normal cooperation.
In order to make Laura less suspicious about the origin of the hingfish, Zhao Hai raised a lot of them in the hot spring of Qingshan Manor. Meanwhile, he moved the red aquatic grass that the hingfish ate in the medium to Winer Valley in the courtyard.
However, it was impossible for Zhao Hai to tell Laura about the origin of these items. He believed that Laura wouldn’t ask about it either. After all, everyone had their own secrets.
Three days passed by quickly. Zhao Hai and the others had a very fulfilling time. In the past three days, Zhao Hai not only had to take care of the realm, but he also had to return to the iron Mountain Valley to improve the land. At the same time, he had to plant the improved land. He was very busy every day.
At the same time, Zhao Hai also did an experiment. He soaked some corn seeds in water in the space until they sprouted. Then, he asked Merlin to arrange for some people to plant some on the black soil outside the castle. Zhao Hai wanted to see if these seeds could grow.
If the black soil was unable to grow anything, it was because the monsters from the rotten swamp had come here to detoxify and pollute the soil, then the corn seeds that had been improved by the space should be able to grow. Zhao Hai had asked them to water the seeds with the water from the moat when he planted them.
The water in the moat had been improved by the space’s water. It could detoxify the poison. Of course, the effect was not as good as the space’s water. However, Zhao Hai wanted to try and see if the diluted water could solve the problem of the black soil.
However, it would take a few days to see the results. It was impossible to see the results in a short time. After all, planting corn outside was completely different from planting it in the space.
During the past three days, Zhao Hai had contacted Zhao Zui and the others to check on their progress. They had already traveled about 50 miles into the swamp and encountered some undead creatures and magical beasts. Unfortunately, the level of the undead creatures and magical beasts was very low. They were of no use to them, so they did not catch any.

There were some plants growing in the swamp, but there was nothing special about them, so they did not collect them. Zhao Hai was not in a hurry, as no one knew how big the corpse swamp was. Zhao Zui and the others ‘main task was to explore the way. Once they understood the way, everything would be easier to discuss.
In these three days, Grimm went to the forest again and dug up some plants. But unfortunately, most of the things he dug up were the same as the ones he had dug before. Even if they were not the same, they could not upgrade the space.
The forest near kassa city had also been destroyed. There were no magic beasts that were too strong, only some low-level magic beasts. These magic beasts were not of much use to the space. Although Grimm had caught some of them, they could not upgrade the ranch. On the contrary, because those animals had no redeeming qualities, they were directly killed by the space.
This made Zhao Hai understand that it was harder to level up his ranches in the realm than his farm. However, he was not in a hurry. His ranches could raise 1000 animals now, which was not a low number. Even if the ranches did not level up, it would be enough.
Now, Zhao Hai was raising blue-eyed rabbits and scaled wildebeest in the farm. He had kept the mature rabbits and scaled wildebeest, and the new ones were the young ones. There were 700 blue-eyed rabbits and 300 scaled wildebeest.
However, Zhao Hai didn’t plan to keep too many of them. After all, they could only be used to carry things, and they were of the lowest grade, one grade lower than the inferno horses that were used to carry passengers.
Zhao Hai planned to only keep 1000 scaled wildebeest in his interspace. He would spend the rest of the time raising more rabbits. However, he couldn’t raise too many, or else it would become a disaster.
He raised rabbits. In addition to providing them with meat, the rabbit skin could also be used to make clothes for the winter. He also wanted to see if he could cooperate with Laura in the blue-eyed rabbit business. If it was possible, he was prepared to raise blue-eyed rabbits in large quantities.
He wasn’t in a hurry to rear blue-eyed rabbits in the mines of Iron Mountain. He planned to wait until he had bought some tools before starting. Now he had the stone mill and the millstone, but he still lacked the bellows and machines such as the oil press.
Feeding a blue-eyed rabbit wasn’t enough just by feeding it some carrot leaves. It also needed to be fed with other things, such as feed made from oil residue. However, he didn’t have these things yet, so he planned to wait for the machines to arrive before he started raising blue-eyed rabbits in the mine.
In the evening three days later, the men of sacrifice stationed outside Casar city sent news to Zhao Hai that Laura had returned and had just entered the city!
