Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 399
Chapter 399 – Waiting
Upon listening to Zhao Hai, Laura and the others laughed. They knew that Zhao Hai was just talking casually and didn’t express that he had any interest in Ruyen. Just like what Zhao Hai told them before, Ruyen wasn’t worth Zhao Hai’s attention.
However, Laura asked, “Who did Uncle Evan send to get her? We still need to take care of her well-being, she should arrive in perfect condition. If anything happens to her, it wouldn’t be good for us.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “It’ll be fine. I will send some Blood Hawks to follow her. If there’s anything wrong, we can immediately help.”
Laura smiled, “I think there’s no need for Elder Brother Hai to go, we can just send the Swordfish. Swordfish ships were even used to escort the emperor, I think there won’t be any problems with it. This way we can sort of help with their situation. Having blood hawks carry your ghost staff around is very inconvenient for us. What do you think?”
Zhao Hai agreed, “This is a good idea. We have a lot of ships in our hands, and some of them would be rarely used. It should be a good idea to use them this time around.”
Laura smiled and said, “If you send that many ships, the Aksu Empire would get nervous. They might think that a princess from Rosen Empire had come to visit Aksu Empire.”
Zhao Hai couldn’t help but laugh, they couldn’t blame him. Currently, he has 11 three masted ships and 4 five-masted ships on hand. This number is too astonishing.
Although the three-masted battleships were only the most common type, they were still battleships. Also, the five-masted ironclad merchant ships aren’t easily bought and used by just anyone.
The cost of iron armor is too high, moreover they needed to be serviced every year. It was the same scenario if they underwent a battle, they would have to be serviced again. Because of this, no average person can take care of these ironclad ships. Even if you didn’t use your ship, the maintenance cost of the ship was still very high.
Therefore, most five-masted ironclad ships are in the possessions of Great Families. Even Zhao Hai’s Haven ship once belonged to a Great Family in Ocean Waves Dynasty before it changed hands.
If he sent all these ships to escort Ruyen, the Aksu Empire would certainly think that a princess had just come for a visit, and this is not an exaggeration.
After speaking of this, Zhao Hai immediately called over a blood hawk and released it to find Ruyen’s ship. The hawk was very fast, they didn’t need to wait for the evening to find Ruyen’s vessel.
Although Ruyen rode on a ship, the vessel was just an ordinary three-masted cargo ship. It didn’t have any special features. Aside from Ruyen, there were also some guards and servants that came along to meet her. When Zhao Hai looked closely, he could notice some Purcell Family elders that were 8th rank, all of them were warriors.
Such strength wasn’t bad, 8th ranks were already considered to be experts on the continent. Only an anomaly like Zhao Hai would consider them as subpar.
Now that they spotted Ruyen, Zhao Hai didn’t make his move immediately. He would wait until dark before he’ll release the Swordfish to catch up to Ruyen’s ship so nobody would notice.
Seeing that it was already late, Zhao Hai and the others came out of the Space. Not long after Zhao Hai went out, Charlie also came out of his room looking very well rested.
Zhao Hai immediately had the some chairs brought to the deck. The group sat on down and chatted with each other while enjoying the seascape. At the same time, they also ate dinner.
After having their dinner, Charlie returned to his room to rest. Zhao Hai also returned to his room, and since it was currently dark, he needed to find an appropriate time to release the Swordfish that would escort Ruyen.
Since the skies were still turning dark, Zhao Hai didn’t hurry. He observed the situation on Ruyen’s ship. It may have been because of her recent experiences, but Ruyen had become more mature. Her change was too noticeable that the servants who came for her immediately felt it. She is much quieter than before, she also became more considerate. She was very polite to the servants, which made them quite flattered.
But Zhao Hai didn’t care about these changes, he only cared about Ruyen’s security. As long as Ruyen didn’t suffer an accident, then all is good.
After the skies turned pitch black, Zhao Hai looked for an area not too far from Ruyen’s ship and released the Swordfish.
He also called out a blood hawk and sent it towards Purcell Duchy. In a few days, Laura’s people would arrive and they needed to be transported using the ghost staff.
After doing all of these, Zhao Hai didn’t know what else to do. Even if it was already dark, he didn’t have the urge to sleep, this applied to Laura and the others as well. This was because they were waiting for the sun to rise in the morning, by then the detoxification potion would be finished.
While thinking of these, the group just sat on the living room and looked at each other. They couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhao Hai opened his mouth, “We shouldn’t be waiting for the result in here. Let’s go to our rooms and rest. When we wake up tomorrow morning, the detoxification potion should be finished.”
Laura nodded and stood up, “We cannot just sit here the entire evening, we need to rest. Also, Brother Hai, when you consume the potion tomorrow, you should call Grandpa Green’s group over, otherwise they wouldn’t forgive you.”
Zhao Hai nodded, he knew that Laura was speaking the truth. If he didn’t call Green and the others over, they would certainly complain to him for their entire lifetime.
The group returned to their respective rooms and the Space became peaceful. Zhao Hai was lying on his bed and thinking about all of what happened when he arrived at Ark Continent. Before long, he fell asleep.
…
For who knows how long, Zhao Hai suddenly woke up. He looked out of the window and saw a bright sky.
Zhao Hai went out of his room and turned the monitor on. The outside sky was also bright, but not that much, it seems like it was still very early morning.
He immediately went outside and walked towards the Processing Factory. Surprisingly, Shun was already standing there, looking at the digits that were constantly changing. It was obvious that the potion was still not ready.
Seeing Zhao Hai arrive, Shun immediately bowed and said, “Young Master.”
Zhao Hai showed a faint smile and asked, “You didn’t rest?” He looked at the digits that showed 2 hours.
With an embarrassed face, Shun replied, “I couldn’t fall asleep, so I came out to have a look. I hope I didn’t disturb young masters rest.”
Zhao Hai shook his head with a smile. At this time, footsteps could be heard. Zhao Hai turned his head to see Laura and the others approaching. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile upon looking at their appearance. Laura and Meg also smiled towards Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai chuckled and said, “Well, we still have two hours. Let’s go to Iron Mountain Fort and wake up Grandpa Green and the others.” The group nodded and with a thought, Zhao Hai moved them to Iron Mountain Fort.
Upon arriving at the fort’s living room, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but stare. Aside from Green and the two elders, Karen was also present. Seeing Zhao Hai and the others arrive, Karen stared before he opened his mouth, “Why did you just arrive now? We had been waiting for the whole evening.” [1]
Zhao Hai looked at the group and smiled, “It’s nothing, I just went to bed. I just happen to wake up early today. Grandma Merine, please whip up something to eat. After breakfast, we’ll head back to the Space.”
Merine nodded with a smile on her face. Then she called Meg and Laura over to the kitchen. Laura was currently studying how to prepare food. Even though she had no talent, and the food that she made were mostly inedible, she still studied diligently.
Looking at Merine and the others preparing the food, Zhao Hai turned to Green and said, “Grandpa Green, how is the beer’s progress doing?”
Green smiled and said, “The time is too short. The liquor needs to be fermented for a while. This time, we did a few experiments to find out which materials are useful. We tried bamboo rice, barley, bread fruit, spatial water, ordinary water, cold water, as well as warm water. I believe there should be at least one of those that will succeed.
Zhao Hai smiled, “That’s good. As long as we succeed, then it’s fine. Also, what container do you plan on storing the beer in? We should make sure to seal the beer properly, otherwise we would only be selling low quality beer.”
Little Jin wasn’t present at this time. Because of the transmission point on Ape Island, Zhao Hai would know what Little Jin was doing.
Green replied, “Rest assured, we will not have any issues with this. At first, we wanted to use a wooden barrel but there seems to be some issues with the lid. Now we’re currently finding ways to improve it, you don’t have to worry.”
Zhao Hai nodded, then sighed,. “As long as we make this beer properly, it could certainly be our Buda Clan’s biggest source of income . The future demand for this thing wouldn’t be any less than that of grain.”
Karen looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Are you really sure? I’ve tasted that thing, it is too acidic, not really tasty.”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, “When the beer ferments properly, you’ll be convinced. There are only a few people who could resist the temptation of beer.”
After the group chatted for a while, Merine brought the dishes. Zhao Hia and the others immediately went to the dining hall. Upon finishing their breakfast, they went to the Space and gathered around the Processing Factory.
In the Multipurpose Processing Machine, the digits shown had become 20 minutes. The group couldn’t sit well inside the villa, so they just stood inside the Processing Factory and waited, they waited for the countdown to reach zero.
Laura’s father
Chapter 400 – Pleasantly Surprised
Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One!
The heartbeat of all those present synchronized with the ticking down of the timer. When the number turned to zero, they even felt as though their hearts have stopped.
A white light flashed inside the Processing Factory, then a small bottle appeared on the ground. The bottle was quite small, about the size of a palm, it had a flat bottom. Seeing through its transparent body, one could see a blue liquid. At this time, a prompt was heard, “Special Purpose Detoxification Potion for the Water of Nothingness completed, administer orally, one time use. After ingestion, toxin shall be removed, impurities will be discharged. At the same time, Host’s body will be strengthened, advised to take the potion along with a Goldmetal Fruit, the effects will be better.”
Zhao Hai stared, but he immediately took the small bottle and gazed at the blue liquid inside it. Green and the others also stared at the liquid with bated breath, probably afraid that the bottle would disappear if they breathed strongly..
Zhao Hao turned his head to look at the others, he showed a faint smile, “I think that the Space wouldn’t deceive me, I should go buy a Goldmetal Fruit. Then I will go consume the two of them together, what does Grandpa Green think?”
Green looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Young Master, what are you planning on practicing, Magic or Battle Qi?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, “Battle Qi, of course. Now that I can use 8th rank Magic by using the Space, it would be redundant to learn Magic. I seem to remember about you saying that our family has the Wild Dragon Battle Qi being passed down, I hear that it’s very famous in the continent, I’ll train hard using that.”
Green’s eyes became wet as he laughed and said, “Good, good! Young Master is certainly worthy to be a Buda Clan member. I can teach you the true version of the Wild Dragon Battle Qi that our Buda Family has been secretly passing on.”
Zhao Hai stared for a moment before he asked Green, “Grandpa Green, what did you say? What do you mean true version of the Wild Dragon Battle Qi? You mean that there’s another version that isn’t genuine?”
Green smiled faintly, “Right, our Buda Clan’s Battle Qi technique can be said to be one of the most famous techniques in the continent. Not only is the way it is practiced different, the attack strength of our technique is leagues better than most. Because of this, a lot of people became jealous. Thus, our Clan’s Wild Dragon Battle Qi has been divided into two versions. The first version is the simplified one, it has a weaker attack strength as well as a slow rate of practice. That version couldn’t compare to the true version of out Wild Dragon Battle Qi manual.”
Zhao Hai smiled, “That’s good to hear, but we still need to wait until my toxin gets removed. Teaching me when that time arrives wouldn’t be too late.” Then he took the bottle and headed to the villa’s living room along with the others following behind him.
Inside the living room, Zhao Hai placed the small bottle on the table first before opening the Spatial Store and buying a Goldmetal Fruit.
Now that the Goldmetal Fruit has been digitized, it could now be bought in the shop. However, it’s price wasn’t that cheap. At this moment, it was the most expensive thing in the shop, costing 10 thousand gold coins per fruit.
But Zhao Hai didn’t care about the price, he immediately bought the fruit and placed it beside bottle. He took the bottle and removed the cork. He looked at the liquid inside before raising his head and downing the liquid into his mouth.
It wasn’t until the bottle was empty before he placed it down. He flapped his lips but couldn’t taste any residual flavor. Then he took the Goldmetal fruit and took several bites one after another.
Every single person in the room looked at Zhao Hai eating the Goldmetal fruit. They just stayed in their place and stared at him.
Zhao Hai licked his lip, the fruit’s flavor was extremely good. It had a cool feeling as well as a sweet and sour flavor. This made Zhao Hai secretly want to eat another one.
Zhao Hai looked at the others’ appearance and couldn’t help but laugh, “I didn’t expect that the taste of this fruit would actually be very pleasant.” After he finished talking, he suddenly felt a rumbling sensation in his belly. Zhao Hai’s face changed before he charged towards the toilet while holding on to his stomach.
Inside the toilet, Zhao Hai immediately unbuttoned his pants and sat down. The stench that emanated from the toilet almost made Zhao Hai faint.
After ‘working hard’ for about 10 minutes, Zhao Hai was about to collapse, this wasn’t what he expected to happen. He immediately got some tissue paper from the Space and cleaned himself up. When he stared at what he just left behind, he felt very disgusted. What he saw was something black, akin to asphalt, it dispersed waves of gut retching odor. Zhao Hai could even swear that he just saw insects flying around the toilet.
Zhao Hai quickly covered the toilet and pressed the flush button. He also turned the exhaust fan on. When he felt that the air inside the restroom became better, he immediately walked out.
Although Zhao Hai felt that he was on the verge of collapsing, there was a sense of extreme relief that came about him. This weird feeling made him both uncomfortable and glad.
When he came out of the restroom, he saw Green and the others waiting for him. Seeing Zhao Hai come out, Green immediately inquired, “Young Master, how are you feeling? Are you alright?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “I’m fine, I feel good, but I’m feeling very weak.” Meg immediately went forward to support Zhao Hai as they headed back to the living room. After Zhao Hai sat down, a glass of water was given to him.
After drinking the glass of water, Zhao Hai felt a bit better. Scratch that, it was a LOT better. He felt that he was full of strength, something he never felt before.
Green and the others stared at Zhao Hai. He placed his glass down and smiled, “I’m feeling so much better. That feeling earlier must have been the potion’s side effect. Now I feel that my body is overflowing in strength.”
Green’s heart was moved, he immediately said to Zhao Hai, “Young Master, I think the things that the Space produces are all very special. How about I impart the Wild Dragon Battle Qi Technique to you right now. Let’s see what results come up.”
Zhao Hai nodded, then Green quickly told Zhao Hai the instructions to practice the Wild Dragon Battle Qi Technique. Upon hearing the instructions, Zhao Hai was surprised, this was because this technique was unexpectedly quite the same as Earth’s Internal Strength techniques. Just like how it was described in martial arts novels, the technique practices the body through the various acupoints inside.
In Ark Continent, before one practices their Battle Qi through the acupoints, one needed to train their bodies first. Once their bodies have reached a certain rank, then they could train their Battle Qi. As long as they establish a minor cycle of qi within their bodies, then they would have reached minor mastery. This rank gives the person close to 5th rank in strength.
However, the Wild Dragon Battle Qi was different, this technique didn’t need you to train your body first. Everybody was able to practice this technique, naturally, those who had innate talent in cultivation would have much faster progress than those who had worse.
Zhao Hai had read a lot of Battle Qi techniques these past few days, so one could say that he had a bit of understanding about Battle Qi. Simultaneously, he had already memorized all of the acupoints inside a human’s body. This was because knowing those points were tantamount to cultivating Battle Qi.
Now that Green imparted the technique to him, he immediately understood it. He remembered the route according to the technique and started to try to probe for the sensation that one needed to feel.
In practicing Battle Qi, the most difficult part wasn’t advancement, but this sensation that one must acquire so that they could embark on their cultivation journey. This sensation was nothing but ethereal, it relied completely on your internal senses. After many years of experimentation on the continent, they had found out that those who had good body strength were able to achieve this feeling easier. This was also the reason why most train their bodies before starting to train in Battle Qi.
Zhao Hai expected to have difficulties in feeling out the sensation, but he didn’t think that when he just started the process, something like ants crawling in his meridians were immediately felt. It evolved into a torrential flow before completing the first rank of the Wild Dragon Battle Qi technique.
Then, the second rank was attained, then the third, the fourth, the fifth, and it stopped at the sixth rank. Zhao Hai felt that he was being excessive and stopped advancing, then he continued to operate the six ranks of the technique.
Every time the technique made a revolution, Zhao Hai felt that his body’s battle qi increase by a point. He slowly felt the Battle Qi in his body becoming like a river that rushed along his meridians. The river was golden in color, with a few black, blue, cyan, and red colors mixed in.
The movement of this river became quicker and quicker, and when Zhao Hai felt that the river could break through his meridian’s limitation, he immediately attacked the 7th rank. Looking as though the river had fount an exit, it immediately rushed into the meridians and immediately broke through the 7th rank. When he broke through the 7th rank, the river began to calm down. However, Zhao Hai still felt that there was still enough power to go on. So he continued to circulate his Battle Qi along the 7th rank and slowly accumulated the quantity of qi inside his body.
Before long, when he felt like his limits were about to be broken through, Zhao Hai immediately started to attack the 8th rank.
The operation was very smooth as he quickly broke through to the 8th rank. Then the river of Battle Qi calmed down. Zhao Hai felt his own veins become sturdy, his skeleton hard, his muscles powerful, and his skin durable. However, this time, he felt that he could no longer continue on.
Zhao Hai was very confused, he didn’t know why all of these happened. Then suddenly, he thought about the Magic brought by the Space. The Magic of the Space had already reached 8th rank. Now, his Battle Qi has also reached the 8th rank, it seems like all of these were linked to the Space.
Upon thinking about this, Zhao Hai stopped his cultivation. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Green and the group looking at him anxiously. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but show a faint smile and said, “What happened? I’m fine, I just circulated by Battle Qi, everyone doesn’t need to be so nervous.”
Green forced a smile and asked, “Young Master, you didn’t JUST practice Battle Qi. You’ve been doing it for a full day and night. Young master, what Battle Qi rank have you reached?”
