Chapter 3 Developed! Find a source of water
The eighth day of Charlotte's rebirth of the tree.
The bloody dusk in the sky disappeared, and the night starry sky gradually filled the entire sky.
"Whew-"
A cool breeze blows from time to time from the direction of the wild trees and jungle.
In the darker canyon, where only the moonlight fell, a small tree grew silently.
Due to the diurnal variation, the whole tree hangs slightly at night, and the position of the leaves changes slightly.
"Absorb soil nutrients....gain 0.11 empirical ......"
"Absorb soil nutrients....gain 0.13 experience ......"
"Absorb soil nutrients....gain 0.12 experience ......"
Charlotte looked at the subtitle messages that kept popping up in his attribute panel, and his mood was very calm.
Although he hadn't broken through the sixth-level realm yet, the foundation under the ground had spread to a depth of nearly 160 cm.
Although progress was a little slow, Charlotte had nothing else to do.
This is the tree life, so you can only boil it slowly.
The tree seems to have been obscure all along, as if it can continue to be so ordinary until it grows old.
But how much time is left for Charlotte?
"Let's go to sleep first."
Charlotte said indifferently, although he became a tree, fortunately he still has the power of the plant's sleep movement.
In the daytime, the slightly drooping leaves on your body will return to normal.
Just when he was ready for a good night's rest.
"Bang." Suddenly, I sensed that a certain root underneath had penetrated the soil and touched something.
An unprecedented 'cold' sensation was transmitted.
It feels more like stepping into the shallow water of the soles of your feet.
No, is this an underground water source?!
Charlotte was very surprised, and looked at the subtitle changes that popped up one after another in her attribute panel:
"Absorb nutrients from water sources....gain 1.08 experience ......"
"Absorb nutrients from water sources....gain 2.11 experience ......"
"Absorb nutrients from water sources....gain 1.26 experience ......"
Oh my God, the speed at which this energy is drawn is a huge increase!
Sure enough, with the energy of nature as a supplement, I can gain more experience!!
Without saying anything, Charlotte suddenly controlled the surrounding foundation with all her body and mind, and rushed in the direction of the water source.
"Gurgling ......"
Take the water from his roots, pump it up to the rest of the body.
The trunk gently squeezes the water and pushes the water upwards through the xylem, a tissue in a plant whose main job is to transport water and nutrients from the roots to the shoots and leaves.
In less than a few minutes, Charlotte had grown a sixth turquoise leaf.
This is followed by the seventh, eighth, and ninth......
"It's good, it's good, I can feel like I'm growing fast!"
Charlotte struggled to stabilize his excitement, and he could feel his perspective gradually rising.
There is no doubt that I am growing up many times faster than before!!
When ten minutes have passed.
Before Charlotte could react, she was suddenly pleasantly surprised to hear a prompt:
"Didi, congratulations to the host for successfully reaching level 7!!"
Hearing this mechanical voice, Charlotte worked even more vigorously to carry out the transfer work.
Numerous slender foundations penetrate the soil and sink into the water source.
It didn't take long for the roots to sink into the base of the tree in the cold groundwater, frantically absorbing energy and replenishing it into the body.
The more roots that absorb water, the faster the efficiency!
Now, this time it's really developed!!
"Gurgling ......" a movement that only Charlotte herself could hear, passing from the ground down the foundation to the trunk of the tree.
It is said that the sound of the tree's "heartbeat" is the sound of the tree's "heartbeat" when it absorbs water from the tree's nocturnal activity.
Because many trees periodically swing their branches up and down during the night, this indicates that the trees may be slowly pumping upwards, which may be their heartbeat and pulse.
The number of leaves is growing all the time.
On the side of the trunk of the tree, new branches are growing.
The outer layer of bark is slowly thickening.
In this silent canyon, a tree is growing slowly at a rate visible to the naked eye.
When an hour has passed.
"Didi, congratulations to the host for successfully reaching level 8!!" A mechanical voice rang out.
Charlotte was very happy when she heard this.
He felt like he had reached a height of 1.3 meters, and he could see a farther field of vision.
It is worth mentioning that Charlotte discovers that she has a hidden ability: vision.
As long as there are no obstacles.
His perspective can be detached from his main body, and he can see everything within a radius of ten meters around him.
And the higher the level, the farther the area you can see.
Even if it was the ants crawling on the ground, he could see it clearly.
What is not known at this time is that he has more than a dozen roots rooted in the groundwater, drawing water from time to time.
I just don't know how big or small the water source is down here.
Another two hours passed.
"Didi, congratulations to the host for successfully reaching level 9!!"
"Good!" Charlotte said with a sigh of satisfaction.
After so many boring days, it was the first time he had such a happy and joyful mood.
Originally, the rebirth of the tree was an extremely long ordeal for Charlotte, who was familiar with the game.
After all, I can't move in place all the time, but I won't die, so I can only wait for death aimlessly.
As an ambitious person, he is certainly not willing to wait here for death.
I didn't expect to find a water source tonight-
For Charlotte, it's like digging into her own vault!
Although the higher the level, the more experience points are required.
But with the groundwater source as the support, Charlotte's mentality is much calmer and more confident.
When three hours have passed.
"Didi, congratulations to the host for successfully reaching level 10!!"
The system's voice sounded again, and added a word that surprised Charlotte:
"Didi, congratulations to the host for obtaining Skill Aura *1 and awakening the new ability 'Tree Root Minions'!!"
[Ability: Root Minions]
[Introduction: It can control the activity of tree roots within a certain range, and the higher the host level, the more powerful the effect ability becomes.] 】
[Rating: Congratulations, you have at least a lot of flexible tentacles!] 】
After reading the introduction of the new ability.
"Is that so......" Charlotte silently summoned her consciousness.
In the next moment, I saw five or six dark and slender roots piercing through the soil, swinging in front of the tree like waves.
The roots of the tree actually danced 'spiritually', and this scene is quite strange.
If you let the outside world see it, I'm afraid you will think that there is a dryad here, right?!
Charlotte was originally worried that he didn't have a main class, and when he upgraded to a new level, he wouldn't have the ability to awaken.
Charlotte got used to it a little and felt pretty good.
"This ability is okay, it's equivalent to my hand."
