However, what Zhao Hai did not know was that Merlyn was shocked to the point of being speechless. Merlyn was a mage, and a level-eight water mage at that.

On the Ark Continent, mages were divided into ten levels. Level one to three were called mage apprentices, level four and five were low-level mages, level six and seven were intermediate mages, level eight and nine were advanced mages, and level ten were god-like existences in legends, mage gods.

It was not easy to be a mage. First of all, one had to have magic aptitude and comprehension. Among ten mages, five would be magic apprentices and three of the remaining five would be low-level mages for the rest of their lives. The remaining two might be stuck as mid-level mages. There was only a 1% chance that a high-level mage would appear. This was only the ratio among mages, and the probability of a person possessing magic talent on the continent was only one in ten thousand.

Therefore, there were very few mages on the continent, and even fewer high-level mages. An eighth-grade mage like Merlyn was treated as a guest of honor in any country. However, Merlyn and Grimm were both from the Buda family, so they were wholeheartedly helping the Buda family. It was precisely because of this that the emperor of the Aksu Empire did not kill the entire family and only sent them here.

An advanced mage like Merlyn was very sensitive to the changes in the elements. If someone used magic within a thousand meters of her, she would immediately notice it.

On the Ark Continent, there was only one type of magic that could put things away like this, space magic. If one in ten thousand people could learn magic, then those who could learn space magic were one in a million. There were not many space mages on the continent now, and their levels were not high. They could not open a space by themselves.

There were indeed some magic tools made by space mages on the continent. These magic tools were used to store things. Space mages used their magic to open a storage space. Then, they used various materials and the help of magic arrays to seal this space into an item. This formed a storage equipment. In order to do this, space magic energy required was at least comparable to an advanced mage’s energy volume. Moreover, they could only create five storage equipment in their lifetime. Therefore, this kind of storage equipment was very rare on the continent, and was naturally very precious.

The Buda family did not have such a storage device. Merlyn knew this very well. In other words, this ability belonged to Zhao Hai himself, but Zhao Hai was someone who had drunk the Void Water and could not learn magic or battle aura. Naturally, he could not be a space mage. Merlyn saw the water ball disappear without any trace of magic fluctuation just now.

There were only two possibilities for this to happen. The first was that Zhao Hai’s magic energy was higher than Merlyn’s, and he could completely hide his magic fluctuations from her. However, this was impossible. Zhao Hai had drunk the Void Water, so it was impossible for him to use magic.

The other possibility was that Zhao Hai was not using magic or magic tools at all. If he did not use magic or magic tools, Merlyn would naturally not be able to feel the magic fluctuations.

Zhao Hai turned to look at Merlyn and smiled. “Grandma Merlyn, don’t be anxious. I’ll tell you what’s going on in a few days. This might be an ability given to me by God.”

Merlyn nodded and did not ask further. It was fine as long as Zhao Hai was not in danger. Moreover, if Zhao Hai had such an ability, it would only be a good thing.

Zhao Hai looked at the lake and realized that there was nothing to see here. He turned to Merlyn and said, “Grandma Merlyn, let’s go back. As long as Grandpa Grimm returns, we can immediately carry out these plans.”

Merlyn nodded and said to Zhao Hai, “Young Master, go back early. You don’t have to worry about this. Meg and I are here.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Alright, but Grandma Merlyn, don’t tire yourself out. Let the slaves do these things. You and Meg can just watch. Anyway, there’s no hurry. You just have to clean up this cave before Grandpa Grimm comes back.”

Merlyn smiled and said, “Young Master, you’ve really grown up. You have learned how to care about others. But no need to worry, my old bones can still hold on. Young Master, go back to the castle first. I’ll cook for you later.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll go back first.” With that, he led Wood and Rock out.

Merlyn looked at Zhao Hai’s back and muttered, “The ancestors have blessed the Buda family. I didn’t expect the ability Young Master obtained to be so strong. There’s hope for the Buda family.”

Zhao Hai led the two of them back to the castle and entered his room. He wanted to see what was so special about the black soil and the water.

Once in the room, Zhao Hai turned to the two of them and said, “The two of you don’t have to go in with me. Stay here and watch. If Grandma Merlyn comes, block her for me and say that I’m sleeping.”

Zhao Hai also wanted to try and see if the two of them would listen to him. When he brought them into the Space Farm, he felt that their attitude towards him had changed drastically, as if they had a sense of reverence for him. Moreover, he also felt that the two of them would listen to him, so he wanted to try again to see if the two of them would obey him. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

Unexpectedly, the two of them did not hesitate at all and bowed to Zhao Hai. “Okay, Young Master.” With that, the two of them left Zhao Hai’s room and closed the door. Then, they stood on either side of Zhao Hai’s door and acted as door gods. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m

Zhao Hai really did not expect the two of them to be so obedient. However, this was a good thing. He immediately entered the Space Farm.

As soon as he entered the Space Farm, Zhao Hai willed it and the black soil appeared in front of him. Before he could speak, a notification came immediately. “New item discovered. It’s mutated soil. The soil contains a lot of harmful substances. It can be modified with space soil or space water. The area that can be modified every day is ten acres. Because of the discovery of new items, the Space Farm has been upgraded to level three. Two bags of corn seeds have been gifted. Each bag can be planted over an acre of land. They can be used outside of the Space Farm. The new item is soil. The land in the Space Farm has been upgraded to level two. It can increase the growth speed of crops by eleven times.”

Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment before he was delighted. He did not expect to level up just like that. This was great. He even obtained two bags of corn seeds. Corn was a good thing. The yield was very high. If he planted corn here, the food problem would be resolved. Most importantly, those black soil could be modified with space soil and space water. This was great news.

Although he could only modify ten acres a day, this was not bad. The Space Farm was leveling bit by bit. Although it had been upgraded to level three, the land area had not increased. He did not know when the land would expand again.

Just as he was thinking this, the Space Farm’s notification sounded again. “Do you want to reclaim new land? Reclamation requires level 3 Space Farm and 200 gold coins. You can reclaim two acres of land. The next time you reclaim new land, you will need level 5 and 500 gold coins.”

Zhao Hai was overjoyed. This came just in time. However, he was in a dilemma again. If he reclaimed more land, he would not have the money to buy seeds. He was a little reluctant to sell those radishes to the Space Farm. Moreover, it would also be a loss to plant the corn and sell them to the Space Farm. The key problem now was how to get the seeds.

At the thought of this, Zhao Hai did not immediately expand the land. Instead, he took out the corn seeds. A small bag of corn seeds appeared in his hand. Zhao Hai gently opened the bag and grabbed some corn seeds. The golden seeds were huge and full. It was obvious that they were the best-quality seeds. Once these corns were cooked, they would definitely be delicious.

Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment. Then, an idea flashed across his mind. He patted his head and said, “That’s right, how could I have forgotten? All plants can form their own seeds. Even the radish can do it. I wonder if the radish in the Space Farm can form its own seeds? If it can, I don’t have to buy seeds myself, hahahaha.”

Zhao Hai put away the corn seeds, but he did not start digging immediately. Instead, he looked at the radishes in the ground. He did not know if the things planted in the space would form seeds. If they could not form seeds like in the game, he would be in big trouble. Therefore, he did not start digging immediately. Instead, he wanted to wait for a while. If the radishes could really form seeds, he would start digging immediately. If they could not, he could only push back the time.

After thinking this through, Zhao Hai was not in a hurry. Instead, he took out the large water ball. When the water ball appeared in Zhao Hai’s hand, it was still in the shape of a water ball. This was also Zhao Hai’s ability. He might not have the ability to turn the water into this state outside the Space Farm, but he could do it here.

The moment the large water ball was taken out, a notification sounded. “New item discovered. The item is subterranean river water. It is of good quality. Space water can be used to increase the nutrients in the water. Because of the discovery of a new item, the Space Farm has been upgraded to level four. Two bags of wheat have been rewarded. Each bag can be planted over an acre of land. Because a new item has been discovered, the space water has been upgraded to level two. It can accelerate the growth of the crops by eleven times.”

Seeing this notification, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but laugh. This was great. He didn’t expect that the two things he brought in from the outside would actually increase the Space Farm by two levels. Moreover, he had obtained four bags of seeds and even upgraded the space land and space water.
