Green turned his head to look at Merine. After getting a positive answer, Green excitedly said, "That's great! As long as we get through this crisis, we'll immediately send the magic radishes to the Markey Dell Trading Company. Then we'll go look for the thing you want, Young Master."
Zhao Hai nodded and looked at the screen again. He turned his head to Merine and said, "Grandma Merine, Grandpa Green, you two still have to go to the back of the thatched hut. I'll monitor those undead creatures from the house. Today we must catch more of those things."
Green and Merine nodded and turned to go outside. Zhao Hai stayed in the thatched hut and paid attention to the changes outside. The operation to catch undead creatures had officially begun.
In the next five days, the slaves practiced writing every day. Zhao Hai and the others focused their energy on catching undead creatures.
In these five days, they used Zhao Hai's method of luring monsters and caught more than a thousand undead creatures. After these undead creatures entered the space, the space didn't issue any prompts. But as soon as they entered the space, the green soulfire in their eyes turned red. Then they were thrown into the warehouse by Zhao Hai.
And in these five days, Zhao Hai also harvested eight seasons of corn and two seasons of oil nuts. Now he had a lot of corn and oil nuts saved, especially corn. One must know that he had four mu of corn planted. After these eight seasons, in addition to the previous ones, he now had more than a hundred thousand jin of corn in his hands. This made Zhao Hai think whether or not he should switch to other kinds of corn.
But now he didn't have time to think about this because the magic beasts outside had retreated. After these five days, the undead creatures and magic beasts outside had almost completely disappeared.
This made Green feel relieved. Green had been worried that those magic beasts and undead creatures had come out of the Carrion Swamp because they were here. But now it seems that this wasn't the case. If the other side really rushed out because they found them, then during the time he was luring monsters, it was impossible for them to retreat into the swamp. On the contrary, it was possible for them to rush out of the Carrion Swamp again.
Now that the undead creatures had retreated, it meant that those things didn't rush out of the swamp because they found them. This was good news. Otherwise, once they came out, it wouldn't be long before those things rushed out again. Then they would be in big trouble.
Seeing that those magic beasts and undead creatures had retreated, Zhao Hai and the others immediately came out of the space. These days, they were suffocating inside the space.
But when they came out of the space, their faces didn't look good. Now the whole castle had been destroyed beyond recognition. It looked even more dilapidated than when they first arrived. Although the main building didn't suffer any damage, all the supplies outside were destroyed. Nothing was left behind. Because of these things, the castle looked even more dilapidated.
Looking at the dilapidated appearance of the castle, Zhao Hai and the others felt very uncomfortable. Although the condition of the castle was very simple, no matter what, this was still their home. Seeing their home destroyed like this, how could Zhao Hai and the others feel comfortable in their hearts?
Although they could see the situation outside through the screen, but now that they were there, the feeling was even more intense. Blockhead couldn't help but punch the wall next to him, causing blood to flow down the wall.
On the contrary, Green's performance was very calm. These days, he had been going in and out of the space to lure monsters. He was very clear about the situation inside the castle, so he didn't have any excessive reaction.
Merine also took a look at the castle's situation. Now, in addition to the damaged items, there were also some magic beast feces on the ground. The whole castle looked very dirty.
Merine sighed and said, "Alright, let's clean up. Let's take all the things outside and roast them. Those magic beasts have already touched them. I'm afraid that those things are poisonous. Let's not use them. When we're done, let's go out. I'll use water to wash the castle."
Green frowned and said, "Let's wait for two more days. Right now, the water in the moat outside is green. I think it's also poisonous. If we use that water to wash the castle, then the whole castle might be poisoned.
Merine frowned, then she turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, do you want to go to the moat and take a look?"
Zhao Hai also wanted to go there and take a look. The Spatial Water had the ability to detoxify. If possible, he wanted to detoxify the poison in the moat outside.
Green obviously also thought of this point. He immediately turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, can you detoxify the poison in the moat?"
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "Let's take a look first. Meg, you arrange for them to pack up the things in the castle. They all drank the water in the space, so I believe they shouldn't be poisoned."
Meg complied and organized the slaves to pack up the things. Zhao Hai, accompanied by Green and Merine, went out of the castle and went straight to the moat.
The three people arrived at the moat and took a look. Sure enough, as Green said, the water in the moat had a very strange light green color. Looking at it made people feel scared.
But the most puzzling thing was that although the water was flowing, the green color in the water didn't decrease. It made people feel very uncomfortable.
Merlin looked at the water in the moat and frowned. "The water is flowing and hasn't lost its vitality. However, it looks like it still contains a lot of toxins. I think the problem lies in the lake in the mountain."
Zhao Hai nodded and said to Merine, "Grandma Merine, get some more water. I'll have the space analyze it and see how strong the toxicity is." Merine nodded, and with a wave of her hand, a water ball appeared in her hand. Zhao immediately received the water ball into the space.
The space's prompt was immediately transmitted to Zhao Hai's mind. [Water contaminated by toxic compounds. Toxic content. Can be purified by the space's water.] It was a very simple prompt.
This made Zhao Hai feel relieved. As long as the poison could be detoxified, it was fine. Zhao Hai let out a long breath and turned to Merine and Green. "Grandpa Green, Grandma Merine, let's go to the mountain lake. The toxins in the water can be detoxified with the space's water. But the source of the water is the mountain lake. We'd better start from there."
Merine and Green were relieved. To be honest, the two were afraid that the space's water wouldn't be able to detoxify the toxins in the water. Although they believed that the toxins in the water would slowly be removed by the current, it would take some time. Moreover, it would have a big impact on them.
They turned around and were about to go into the mountain when Zhao Hai suddenly stopped. His face was pale as he stared at a place, motionless.
Merine and Green were puzzled as they looked at Zhao Hai. At the same time, the two of them followed Zhao Hai's gaze. It was an ordinary piece of black soil. There was nothing special about it. Green was puzzled as he looked at Zhao Hai. He didn't know what he meant. Merlin was also a little puzzled, but she understood in an instant. Her face turned pale all of a sudden.
Merine understood why Zhao Hai's face changed. It was because that piece of ordinary black soil was the one that Zhao Hai had previously improved. But now, the color of the soil was no different from the black soil in other places. In other words, that piece of black soil might have returned to the original black soil of the Black Waste.
Merine trembled as she asked, "Master, is that …?"
Zhao Hai nodded. His face was pale as he walked over. He wanted to confirm whether the black soil had returned to its original appearance. If it was, then it meant that his improvement had failed.
Although Green didn't understand what the two were talking about, looking at their faces, he knew that something bad must have happened. Therefore, he quickly followed behind Zhao Hai and walked towards that piece of land.
When Zhao Hai arrived in front of the piece of land, he squatted down and carefully looked at it. Then he used his hand to grab the black soil and let out a long sigh of relief.
It turned out that this piece of land didn't return to its original state. Maybe the undead or magic beasts brought the black soil to this piece of land. Because of this, the original black soil covered the land that Zhao Hai improved. Zhao Hai's improvement didn't fail.
Merine also grabbed a handful of black soil and carefully looked at it. But when she looked up at the black soil, her face was still ugly.
Green looked at the two of them, puzzled. He didn't know why the two of them were looking at the black soil so carefully. What was there to look at? He squatted down and grabbed a handful of black soil. Holding it in his hand, he carefully looked at it. Soon, he discovered that the black soil underneath was improved black soil. He stared blankly, then with an excited expression he asked Zhao Hai, "Master, this is?"
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said, "This is a piece of land that I improved using the soil and water from the Space. The improved land can be used to grow things. But after these Magic Beasts came, they might have brought the black soil from other places here, so they covered up the black soil that I improved."
Green quivered. Just as he was about to say something, Merine's voice was heard, "No, Master. I don't think it's the black soil brought by the magic beasts that covered it up. Instead, the surface of this piece of land was affected by the magic beasts' toxins and turned into black soil. If those magic beasts brought the black soil from other places, then it definitely wouldn't be this uniform. Look at this piece of land, the entire color has changed. That's ten mu of land."
Zhao Hai stared blankly, then his complexion changed. He carefully looked at the ten mu of land and found that it was really as Merine said. The improved ten mu of land was really as Merine said, the color was very uniform. None of the improved black soil was exposed. This was too unreasonable. There was only one explanation, the improved land wasn't covered up, but was instead contaminated.
The people of the continent didn't know why the land of the Black Waste became like this. Zhao Hai also didn't know. But just now, they saw the polluted river. Now that they looked at the land, they naturally associated it with the magic beasts' contamination. Unfortunately, they found the correct answer.
