Chapter 69: Trees

The sunset at dusk fell on the faces of Mars and Lawrence.

The two of them were now looking north, as the Moving Island was close to the periphery of the reef group.

"Father, do you think there will be the same as last night here tonight?"

Mars looked at the reefs that were getting closer and closer, and then asked Lawrence, who was beside him.

"Probably not, if you look at the trees on that island over there, they're all growing, which means that the environment here should be suitable for them. ”

An environment that is suitable for the growth of plants, but also suitable for the survival of humans.

So Lawrence at this time explained.

"Father, shall we let the island stop here?"

Mars had seen the sea reef and was very close to his moving island.

Because when the moving island is sailing, it will naturally choose the route of sailing, not that it will directly collide with it.

Of course, Mars didn't know what the bottom of the water was like, so he just knew that as long as the surface part of the water didn't hit, then the underwater part wouldn't hit either.

"Mars stopped at a location directly south of it. ”

Lawrence gestured to the island and said to Mars.

Mars understood what his father meant, and opened the island to the south of the island.

After stopping here, although it is still far away, you can see that the moving island is too small compared to this island.

If you want to move all such a large island to your own mobile island, then the mobile island will be dozens of times larger.

"Mars, let's observe today, and then we'll do things tomorrow during the day. ”

Lawrence, with his own experience, instructed Mars on how to do this at this time.

Mars nodded, following his father's orders.

Now that I've reached my destination, what I want to do is very purposeful.

But considering that this is a new place, there is a real possibility that there will be all kinds of unfamiliar situations at night.

At night, Mars and Lawrence are sure to choose a place to rest.

If something in the dark creeps up on the moving island, it's going to scare you to death.

Therefore, Mars prefers to stay in the basement room at night, so that there is no danger to reach the side by the entrance.

However, Lawrence felt the need to be on the ground, so that he could find something and respond to it at the first time, otherwise he would live underwater and not know what was going on outside.

Lawrence has very sensitive senses, so when he lives underground, he will sense the shortcomings.

Eventually, Mars agreed to his father's suggestion, and both of them lived in a stone house.

When he slept, Mars carefully thickened the stone door, and the stone door was also made of magic resistance stones.

At the same time, there is a door clip inside the door, so that when the person inside wants to go out, he can operate it by himself.

This is also for Lawrence, because Lawrence has strong sensory abilities, and when he does these things, he doesn't want to disturb his son, so he can let him in and out by himself.

In the middle of the night, Mars woke up, and when he saw that it was pitch black outside, he knew that there was probably no chance of last night's red light, and then he continued to sleep.

Nothing was said all night.

Mars got up the next morning, he had a lot of work to do today, and he was planning to go to the opposite island, so he had to prepare early.

Lawrence and Mars had an early meal and started to act.

Mars followed Lawrence to the reef and learned about his surroundings.

"The reefs here are different in color from the ones on our island, but they are all stone. In addition, there are a lot of fish in the underwater part, so the environment here should be normal. ”

Lawrence quickly went to check it out, and soon there was news, and he told Mars this.

Now they're aiming for an island that is still half the way away.

That place can be called an island.

Because it has a lot of vegetation, and it's huge.

So if you go to that top, you need to prepare a lot of things.

"Father, since there is no problem here, shall we go up there?"

"Let's go!"

Lawrence was very simple, so everyone went together.

It is a reef island formed by the rise of a sea reef. So there is no area for shoal landings nearby.

The height of the island is very high, a full seven or eight meters high.

It was difficult for the average person to get up, and the surrounding area was so large that it was impossible for Mars and Lawrence to swim around the island to find it.

So this is when Mars's ability is needed.

Although these reefs cannot be replaced on top of their own mobile islands, Mars can also replace these reefs with sand.

When displacement, you only need to select a part, and then a step appears after the sand has been spread.

With successive displacements, a step that can be directly ascended appears.

Mars and Lawrence went up together.

There is soil on top of the island.

It can be judged that the soils did not come from the original island, but were brought by the wind.

In some places, only a thin layer of soil is visible.

These dwarf trees, as well as some other herbaceous plants, grow in a very short period of time.

"These are trees, Mars, you see, they are very small, but they can grow very thick. Then make a tub like ours or a bigger boat. ”

Lawrence pointed to a nearby tree and said.

This is a tree that Mars did not know, and of course the main thing is that Mars had seen little before.

"I got a growing birch tree, two years old, which could be exchanged for household items and tools. ”

Trees are grown into wood, and then used by humans to make many tools suitable for human use.

Now, it can be replaced directly with trees, and Mars feels that his replacement ability is too good.

The fact that a tree that has not yet reached maturity can be replaced is to drive this place to extinction.

"Father, how about we move them all to our island so we can have trees. ”

Mars looked at so many trees, so many other vegetation, so he wanted to take them all with him.

"Our island is too small to take away part of it, and these trees and other plants need a lot of water, and we have too little fresh water. ”

Lawrence still values his own fresh water, so he voiced his concerns at this time.
