CHAPTER 380: Pirates
Little Gold nodded, then shook his head. He pointed to the large gorilla, then to the outside, and finally pointed to himself.
Zhao Hai's thoughts were suddenly opened up. He looked at Little Gold and said, “Are you saying that these gorillas gradually turn silver-white, then half-golden, and only by eating this fruit can they become like you? Otherwise, they will explode, right?”
Little Gold excitedly nodded this time. Zhao Hai's eyes brightened. With a thought, he and Laura returned to the space, along with the gorillas.
At this moment, a notification sound echoed in the space: “Discovered a variant plant fruit, which contains gold-type energy. Eating it grants gold-type superpower. Each seed requires ten acres of land for level eight cultivation, producing ten fruits each time, with a maturation time of thirty-six hours and a seasonal interval of twelve hours.”
“The space has met the requirements for all levels. The space is now upgraded to level twenty-five. We hope the host continues to work hard.”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment, then looked at the small fruit in his hand with surprise. He never expected this small fruit would have such capabilities—not only could it grant superpowers, but it also caused the space to jump to level twenty-five, a huge surprise for Zhao Hai.
After a while, Zhao Hai came back to his senses. He laughed heartily while hugging Little Gold, feeling that Little Gold was truly his lucky star. Not only had he shown him beer, but he had also brought him this fruit, which made the space upgrade three levels in one go. It had been a long time since he had seen such a smooth upgrade—what an incredible surprise!
Laura and the others also looked excited; they hadn’t expected the space to jump three levels this time. They were now one step closer to level thirty.
Although Little Gold didn’t understand what Zhao Hai was laughing about, he was happy that Zhao Hai was happy, chirping away in Zhao Hai's arms.
After a while, Zhao Hai came out of the space again. He looked at the tree, which clearly had no name, and no one on the continent knew it. Zhao Hai had no intention of moving the tree. Since the space already had the fruit of this tree, there was no need to disturb it. So, Zhao Hai simply named the tree the Vajra Tree, and its fruit the Vajra Fruit.
After leaving the cave, Little Gold led Zhao Hai to another cave on the opposite side of the island. This cave was very large and was blocked by some breadfruit trees from the back of the island, but a single ordinary breadfruit tree couldn’t block the entrance.
As soon as Zhao Hai and the others entered the cave, they were stunned because it was a natural harbor. Unlike the outer harbor, this harbor was entirely within the cave, and it could only accommodate a three-masted warship; five-masted ships could not enter.
Rather than a harbor, it was more like a dock. Zhao Hai gazed around, thinking that this place was perfect for docking ships; this small island was truly a natural base.
After coming out of the cave, they reached Little Gold's home, where the giant breadfruit tree was. Zhao Hai took out a large pile of apples for Little Gold and the others as a gesture of thanks. Their gains on this small island had been tremendous—not only had the pasture upgraded two levels, but the farm had also upgraded three levels, and they had found this breadfruit tree. They might even learn how to brew beer in the future. All of these gains were incredibly important to Zhao Hai.
After leaving Little Gold's nest, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the seaside. Little Gold was still following Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai had already decided to use this place as a base. Initially, he wanted to build something here, but seeing Little Gold’s appearance, he didn't want to disturb the area anymore. Zhao Hai understood that the fruits on the breadfruit trees were the food for Little Gold and his kind. If he built something on the island, it would damage those trees, so he decided not to construct anything. However, he did set up a teleport point on the island, which was his fifth teleport point.
