"Three thousand gold pounds."
Old Sam offered a price.
Gounières shook his head gently.
"How much do you think is appropriate?" Old Sam asked.
"At most, eight hundred gold pounds. In fact, I think eight hundred gold pounds is too much."
"After all, if I'm looking for a permanent light source, I have many other choices."
Old Sam thought for a moment and nodded gently.
"Eight hundred gold pounds. It's yours."
"Since you don't have king-tier Extraordinary plant seeds, and I don't need many elite-tier Extraordinary plant seeds, I only need Elite Sea Demon Tree seeds."
Gounières continued asking.
"Do you have them?"
"Not only do I have them, but I also have some mutated Elite Sea Demon Tree seeds."
"Mutated Elite Sea Demon Tree?" Gounières's heart skipped a beat.
"Five hundred gold pounds," Old Sam offered a price.
Gounières shrugged his shoulders.
It seemed that Gounières had underestimated Old Sam's greed.
In a reasonable transaction, Old Sam would always raise the price to the limit.
Gounières didn't hold back either.
"Two hundred gold pounds. It's impossible to add a single cent more. This price is based on its mutated state. Otherwise, it would only be worth a hundred gold pounds."
"I know that there are many places in the sea that have king-tier Sea Demon Tree seeds, and even mutated king-tier Sea Demon Tree seeds."
"If you don't agree with my price, then our transaction will stop at eight hundred gold pounds."
"Deal. A total of 1,000 gold pounds," Old Sam offered straightforwardly.
The reason why Gounières dared to bargain so fiercely was naturally because no one would want these seeds except for him.
If he didn't buy them, these seeds would most likely continue to sleep in his storage equipment.
…
Ten minutes later, Gounières left the Black Fog Home Tavern.
He stopped a passing carriage by the roadside.
"To Seventh Pier Street."
As the carriage moved forward, Gounières opened his system's planting page.
The first planting spot, the Dragonblood Wood, had already been harvested by Gounières.
Most of them had already been sold.
As for the rest, Gounières stored them in his System Space.
After getting promoted to Tier 3, Gounières's system space had also grown in size. Now, it was extremely spacious, close to the size of a middle-class family's living room. Naturally, it could store a lot of items.
Gounières planned to find a place to sell the rest of the Dragon's Blood Wood in two days.
There really wasn't much meaning in planting the Dragon Blood Wood.
The second planting spot was the Elven Tree of Life.
Under the perfect environment, the Elven Tree of Life grew stronger day by day.
After Gounières was promoted to Elite, he received an additional 50% EXP. The Spring of Life below had completely turned into a moderately sized spring.
According to Gounières's observation, the additional 50% EXP was used to increase the growth rate of the plants in the Planting Space.
Previously, it should have been around 1,000 times growth rate. Now, it should be 1,500 times growth rate.
At the same time, the 50% extra experience points would be used to speed up the progress of the subsequent unlocks.
The only thing that didn't have an effect was the increase in the number of reincarnations. The increase in the number of reincarnations seemed to be fixed. It would steadily increase every 30 days.
The Miracle System didn't have any effect on things like extra EXP. He just didn't know if the range of effects had increased.
After all, Gounières hadn't encountered a single Miracle Encounter in such a long time. He couldn't be sure if the range of effects had increased or if some functions had been upgraded.
However, it would be different when he was above the ocean.
Gounières had already collected a lot of dangerous and strange places in the ocean. He might be able to find something if he went there and circled around.
Now, the rich life energy of the Spring of Life was getting stronger day by day. Gounières estimated that it wouldn't be long before the Pure Spring of Life was born.
"After the Pure Spring of Life is born, I'll collect some materials myself. Then, I can start the development of a soul-type Advanced Esoteric Potion."
As for other types of Esoteric Potions that were on the same level as the Dawn of Souls,
Such as increasing the Transcendent characteristics of the physical body.
Increasing the Transcendent characteristics of Dexterity.
Or, potions that increased the Transcendent characteristics of certain elements.
The reason why Gounières didn't study them was mainly because the Pioneers had already obtained the method of using the Spring of Life to activate the life characteristics and extract the Transcendent characteristics of Gounières.
The Pioneers would definitely use this method to conduct large-scale experiments on other types of potions.
After they conquered the territory of the blood-eared elves in the depths of the Northern Distorted Mystic Realm and occupied enough Spring of Life, this experiment would definitely be carried out.
When Gounières left the Suge Ruins, he seemed to have heard that the Pioneers had already gathered Transcendent experts and started an expedition to the north.
After he obtained the Spring of Life, he would probably have the corresponding results after some time.
Gounières didn't have a high demand for these potions, so he didn't need to spend time and energy researching them.
On the Hell Tree in the third slot, there were five or six fruits of various sizes that were in different stages of ripening. Two of them were about to ripen.
These fruits were True Underworld Origin Fruits.
When eaten, it could greatly strengthen the soul's defense.
Gounières had already eaten one before, and the effect was excellent.
As for the fourth slot, Gounières wasn't in a hurry to plant anything else. In any case, Gounières didn't have any suitable Transcendent plants for planting.
But today, the first and fourth slots were going to be used.
In the first slot, Gounières planted an emperor-level Transcendent seed, the Sunflower Tree.
Gounières wasn't too sure about the specific functions of the Sunflower Tree. Based on the principle that he would make a killing if it was effective, and that he wouldn't lose money if he cut it down and sold it if it wasn't effective, he still planted it.
As for the fourth slot, Gounières planted a mutated Elite Sea Demon Tree seed.
Sea Demon Trees could be harvested when they were a hundred years old, and they were very effective.
In recent years, the number of Sea Demon Trees in the sea had decreased significantly.
Many of the sea demon ships used Sea Demon Trees that were seventy or eighty years old, or even thirty or fifty years old.
The sea demon ships built on the bottom of these young Sea Demon Trees weren't very compatible with the sea water, and they were only a little faster than ordinary merchant ships.
Some of them didn't even dare to dive too deep. Diving thirty or fifty meters was the limit.
Demonic sea ships that were built with Demonic Sea Trees over a hundred years old were 50% faster than ordinary merchant ships. They could dive to a depth of three to five hundred meters without a problem.
Moreover, the older a sea demon ship was, the faster it was, and the deeper it could dive.
Diving was the most effective way for a pirate's sea demon ship to deal with a steam-powered steel ship.
For Gounières, if he wanted to sail on the sea, a sea demon ship that could travel fast enough and dive deep enough was very necessary.
Gounières's current slot could grow 1,500 times faster. In a month, he could get a hundred-year-old mutated Elite Sea Demon Tree.
After four or five months, he would get a six or seven hundred-year-old mutated Elite Sea Demon Tree.
Moreover, the trunk of the Sea Demon Tree could grow thicker and stronger than the Dragon Blood Wood.
When the time came, Gounières would harvest the Sea Demon Trees to build the deck of his sea demon ship, and then activate them. After they were gradually integrated into his sea demon ship, even the size of his sea demon ship would increase to a certain extent.
At that time, Gounières' sea demon ship would have unparalleled speed, and the powerful ability to sail thousands of meters deep in the sea.
This would be a powerful guarantee for Gounières to sail the sea.
