Natural God's Gift

After a successful transaction with Red Tea, they bid farewell and continued to their next destination, the Silver Plum Continent. Yun Shi swayed its massive body, moving along the ocean current: "Four Leaf, should we visit the site of the volcanic eruption from two years ago?"

Four Leaf: "Did you guys go when you came last year?"

Angelica replied: "I took a look when I passed by last year. I went underwater, but I didn't find anything of value."

"What about the place where the God-given Fire was born? Was there anything unusual?"

"No, it looked ordinary."

Four Leaf: "If that's the case, let's wait a few years before coming again."

"Alright." Hearing Four Leaf's words, Yun Shi continued towards the Silver Plum Continent.

On Yun Shi's back, Four Leaf and Bai Zhi were counting the primal force foods traded from Red Tea, the products of its many lifeforms.

The tea seeds and blueberries were good, but the yield was too low. Only the Giant-Winged Maple Yang that Four Leaf gave it had a higher yield.

Red Tea was also a very stubborn insect. It insisted on tea trees as its lifeform, and currently, the number of tea tree lifeforms was already eight or nine, while it only had twenty-one or twenty-two lifeforms in total.

Four Leaf couldn't persuade it, so it didn't care anymore. Now that it had Zi Mu to nurture some lifeforms for it, it didn't care about Red Tea alone.

Four Leaf and Bai Zhi separated the God-given tea seeds and ordinary primal force foods traded from Red Tea.

Primal force corn, primal force tea seeds, and primal force blueberries were all carried by Bai Zhi. These primal force foods could also be resold to the insects of the Silver Plum Continent.

The God-given tea seeds and Giant-Winged Maple Yang seeds were carried by Four Leaf. The Giant-Winged Maple Yang seeds were primal force foods required by the kingdom for regular supply, so they couldn't be sold.

They didn't have enough God-given tea seeds for themselves, let alone sell them. This was the bottom line.

Unless Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Master and the others could sell many God-given Silver Plum seeds, then they might appropriately lower the bottom line. Yun Shi swam for three or four days and was discovered by an insect warrior before it reached the Silver Plum Continent.

An insect warrior flapped its wings and saw a huge shadow moving towards the Silver Plum Continent under the water, with several large spiders standing above it.

It circled twice in the sky and looked carefully. After clearly seeing who was there, it landed with relief.

"Is that Boss Four Leaf and Assistant Bai Zhi? And Angelica, hello!"

"You are—" Looking at the Cloud-Patterned Tiger Beetle warrior flapping its wings in mid-air and greeting them, it remembered that this was an insect from the Silver Plum Continent.

Four Leaf hesitated for a moment. It had somewhat forgotten the insect's name.

"Cogongrass," Angelica interjected in a timely manner, greeting the other party: "Why are you here? It seems quite far from the Silver Plum Continent, isn't it?"

Angelica and the others had already traded at the Silver Plum Continent twice, so they were naturally more familiar with the names of these insect warriors.

The Cloud-Patterned Tiger Beetle warrior, Cogongrass, said matter-of-factly: "I'm searching for God-given seeds on the nearby islands!"

"Oh." Searching for God-given seeds was a routine for their insect warriors every year, so it didn't ask any further questions.

Four Leaf asked: "Cogongrass, how long have you been out? Do you want to return to the Silver Plum Continent with us?"

Cogongrass originally wanted to refuse, but thinking about how the trade caravan would bring various primal force foods, and if it returned late, there wouldn't be any good stuff left.

Cogongrass landed on Yun Shi's back: "Then I'll go back with you!"

Cogongrass cautiously asked: "Boss Four Leaf, how much primal force food did you bring this time?"

Four Leaf said lightly: "Don't worry, I brought 100,000 primal stones' worth of primal force food this time. It's enough for the insect warriors of your Silver Plum Continent to distribute."

"Oh, oh." Hearing that there were 100,000 primal stones' worth of primal force food, Cogongrass felt much relieved.

Last year, Four Leaf's trade caravan brought 100,000 primal stones' worth of primal force food. After the transactions of the past two years, their demand for various external primal force foods was still very large, but they no longer had that urgent feeling.

Four Leaf asked: "Cogongrass, have you harvested the God-given Silver Plum seeds in your Silver Plum Continent?"

Cogongrass: "We've harvested them."

"Didn't the typhoon affect you here?"

Cogongrass honestly said: "No, the Silver Plum Continent is protected by a ring of islands, so typhoons usually don't pass through us."

"That's good."

Four Leaf continued to ask: "How many God-given Silver Plum seeds did your Silver Plum God-given Seed produce last year?"

"The yield wasn't high, only 1,436 seeds."

"So few." The yield of small shrub-type God-given Seeds was indeed low, but fortunately, the unit price was high.

"How are your God-given Silver Plum seeds distributed? Are they exclusively owned by Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Master, or does everyone get a share?"

"Everyone gets a share. Intermediate warriors each get 30 God-given Silver Plum seeds every two years, senior warriors each get 50, and the remaining ones all belong to the two Mountain Masters."

"Intermediate warriors don't seem to be able to consume Mountain Master-level God-given primal force foods, right? The class gap is too large, and the primal energy is too refined, so it seems like it would cause indigestion, right?"

Cogongrass replied: "Yes, so our intermediate warriors usually exchange them for ordinary primal force foods with other senior warriors."

Four Leaf waved its claws and said generously: "Exchanging God-given primal force foods for ordinary primal force foods is too wasteful. In the future, you can trade the God-given Silver Plum seeds to me. If you want to eat any God-given primal force foods, just tell our trade caravan,

we'll bring them to you."

Since the God-given Silver Plum seeds weren't all in the hands of Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Master, then things would be easier. It didn't believe that

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Master could stop the other insect warriors from trading primal force foods?

"Really? That would be great." Given a choice, it would definitely want God-given primal force foods that would help its evolution.

After Yun Shi swam in the sea for another day or so, they finally saw the edge of the Silver Plum Continent.

Cogongrass took off first, leaving Yun Shi's back: "Boss Four Leaf, I'll go inform Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Master and the others that your trade caravan has arrived for trading."

"Go ahead." Four Leaf and the others arrived at the island they had come to before. On this island, they found their previous camp, cleared away the trees that had grown in the past year, tidied up the nests that needed tidying, and went to find food that needed to be found.

Once everything was settled, they unloaded the silk bags from their carapaces. First, they spread a layer of silk rolls on the ground, and then they neatly placed the silk bags one by one in the square. The silk bags containing ordinary primal force foods were all opened, allowing the primal energy aura from the primal force foods to spread around.

The God-given primal force foods were placed inside the primal force foods. Since there weren't many of them, they didn't open them one by one. This time, they brought many elemental God-given primal force foods. If anyone needed them, they would show them to the other party.

Just as Four Leaf and the others were setting up camp, Cogongrass returned to the Silver Plum Continent and told the insect warriors on the island about the arrival of Four Leaf's trade caravan.

Immediately, the entire continent began to boil. They had just harvested many primal force foods in the autumn of last year,

Now was precisely the time to trade for the origin force food needed for evolution. The arrival of the Four Leaf Merchant Troupe at this moment was like a timely rain.

After receiving the news, the Raspberry Mountain Master immediately sent insects to inform the insect warriors on the other islands.

Although the land area of the islands in the Silver Plum Continent was not large, their territory, including the seawater, was very vast. If there were no insects to notify the insect warriors living on the other islands, they would not receive the latest news even after another month or two.

Some impatient insect warriors, whose islands were nearby, returned to their nests as soon as they received the news, bringing with them the origin force food they had stored, and rushed to Sub-island No. 18 of the Silver Plum Continent, where Four Leaf and the others were stationed.

The first to arrive was a Hoverfly Warrior. Four Leaf remembered that it seemed to be called Scale Leaf, a high-level warrior in its fifth or sixth instar.

This insect warrior had traded many silk pouches last year and the year before. At this moment, each of its six limbs was carrying a medium-sized silk pouch, and it flew slowly towards the island.

It landed, looked around, and said with some glee, "Boss Four Leaf, Bai Zhi assisting, am I the first to arrive?"

"Yes, you're here quite early."

Scale Leaf asked, "Boss Four Leaf, when can we start trading?"

"Anytime."

Hearing this, it said without any politeness, "Then I'll trade first, to avoid queuing up later."

"Okay." Four Leaf pointed to the bags of opened origin force food on the ground: "The quality of the origin force food here is very good. Let me introduce them to you. I'll get you whatever you need."

"You have both Life and Wood dual-type talent potential, right? Do you mainly want to eat Life-type origin force food now, or do you want to eat Wood-type origin force food?"

Scale Leaf scratched its head with its front legs: "I feel like I've eaten quite a lot of Life-type origin force food on Silver Plum Continent. Now I want to eat some Wood-type origin force food.

It would be even better if there were Strength-type origin force food and Spirit-type origin force food."

"Yes, yes, we have them all."

Four Leaf had prepared these things long ago. A Flame Spider Merchant who doesn't know the needs of its customers is not a qualified merchant. Four Leaf believes that it is quite qualified, at least able to understand the needs of these insect warriors relatively clearly.

"Strength-type origin force food and Spirit-type origin force food, they also have many subcategories. Do you have any specific requirements?"

"Tell me more."

Four Leaf picked up a Dragon Juniper seed: "This is a Strength-type Dragon Juniper seed produced in the territory of a high-level warrior. Its effect is to strengthen labor, which is more suitable for combat. The more severe your injuries, the more tired the insect, the greater the strength."

Hearing Four Leaf say this, Scale Leaf quickly shook its antennae: "We Silver Plum Continent love peace and don't like fighting."

Four Leaf: "It's not just combat that can increase strength. Silver Plum Continent is a sea island, and all kinds of natural disasters are possible. Dragon Juniper seeds can unleash strength at critical moments and are rare treasures."

Although Four Leaf described it eloquently, the other party still rejected this origin force food.

Four Leaf was not annoyed, and picked up a Red Cypress seed: "This is also a Strength-type origin force food. Its effect is to strengthen muscles. The strengthening effect depends on your own physical condition, but this needs to be eaten with Life-type healing origin force food."

"There is also the Chinquapin Chestnut, which permanently increases strength. When eating it, you also need to eat it with Life-type origin force food that strengthens limbs."

"What is the price of Red Cypress seeds and Chinquapin Chestnuts?"

Scale Leaf was somewhat interested in these two kinds of origin force food.

"Red Cypress seeds are smaller, two origin stones per seed. Chinquapin Chestnuts are larger, two origin stones per chestnut."

"Give me four hundred Red Cypress seeds and fifty Chinquapin Chestnuts."

"Okay." Without Four Leaf's instructions, when Dang Gui and Bai Zhi heard Scale Leaf's quote, they immediately became busy packing the origin force food for the other party.

"For Spirit-type origin force food, there are Small Leaf Tea seeds, Fragrant Pine nuts—"

Four Leaf introduced various kinds of origin force food to the other party one by one. Under Four Leaf's recommendation, the other party kept buying, buying, buying, and finally stopped buying when it realized that it didn't have much origin force food left.

Bai Zhi also packed the purchased origin force food for it at the right time: "Hello, the origin force food you purchased is worth a total of 5985 origin stones."

Although Scale Leaf felt a little heartache, it felt more comfortable thinking that these origin force foods were prepared for its evolution. Nothing is more reassuring than evolution.

Just after the two parties completed the transaction, Four Leaf suddenly asked Scale Leaf: "Do you want Wood-type God-given origin force food?"

"Wood-type God-given origin force food?" Hearing Four Leaf's words, Scale Leaf's eyes lit up: "Do you have it? Are you willing to sell it?"

God-given origin force food is the best hard currency on the entire continent. The original Flame Spiders themselves have Wood-type talent potential. If they really had Wood-type God-given origin force food, they probably wouldn't have enough to eat themselves. How could they be willing to take it out for sale?

Scale Leaf didn't expect these things and didn't ask. It didn't expect the other party to mention it proactively.

Four Leaf affirmed: "Yes, but it depends on whether you can bring the same good things to exchange."

"The same good things?" Scale Leaf hesitated. Good things of the same value as God-given origin force food are naturally also God-given origin force food.

But the Raspberry Mountain Master had reminded it before that if it was not necessary, don't trade too many God-given Silver Plums to the other party, and keep some God-given origin force food for yourself to eat as insurance.

Scale Leaf: "Can I ask what kind of God-given origin force food it is?"

Four Leaf took out a well-sealed silk pouch from the stall, and took out a God-given Morning Glory seed and handed it to the other party: "The purest Wood-type God-given origin force food, only eight origin stones per seed, and a free one for you to try.

We also have Wood-type God-given Mesquite seeds, and the price is also very cheap."

Hearing Four Leaf say it was free, Scale Leaf immediately put the God-given Morning Glory seed into its mouth to taste the deliciousness of the God-given origin force food.

After eating a God-given Morning Glory seed, it really began to be tempted: "How much do you buy God-given Silver Plums for per seed?"

Four Leaf: "I've also eaten God-given Silver Plums. We priced it at 150 origin stones per seed."

"The price is so high?" Now Scale Leaf was excited: "Boss Four Leaf, please wait a moment, I'll go get God-given Silver Plums to trade with you."

"I'll wait for you."

After the Hoverfly Warrior Scale Leaf left, another insect warrior flew over with the origin force food produced by its life species.

Four Leaf immediately greeted it, chatting familiarly with the other party, and like Scale Leaf just now, introduced the various types and prices of origin force food to the other party.
