Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Mcgee saw the message sent by Romon, he was confused.
An alliance?
Was he very close to him?
However, Mcgee thought about it and replied to Romon’s message, “No need. I’m quite comfortable on my own, so I won’t consider allying for the time being.”
Isaac Romon was sitting in the attic of his wooden house, looking at the message sent by Mcgee with a headache.
Romain knew that although he was doing well in the trading area, it had a lot to do with Mcgee’s interest in this area.
Because most people only recognized him as Mcgee’s replacement. Only when they could not contact Mcgee would they choose to trade with him.
Moreover, his opportunistic way of making a fortune while everyone was weakened had offended many people.
Although there did not seem to be any adverse reactions, Romon knew that once this crisis was over and most people had matured, they would choose to go on expeditions and take risks.
And he, the second-tier trafficker, was naturally their first-class target!
If he were rich and angered the public, they would definitely make an example of him!
Therefore, the vigilant Romon immediately decided to establish a cooperative relationship with Mcgee!
Moreover, Romon guessed that although the guy who ranked first on the leaderboard was hiding his information, it was definitely Mcgee!
Therefore, Romon gritted his teeth and sent Mcgee another message.
“Boss, think about it again? If we ally, I can help you in many aspects, such as gathering materials, seeds, etc. Also, the pitchfork earned from the points this time isn’t of much use to me. As a show of sincerity, I can give it to the big boss as well.”
Mcgee looked at the message from Isaac Romon and fell into deep thought.
That ‘Pitchfork from Mother Earth’ was indeed a good thing.
Mcgee looked at the forging workshop that had just appeared and suddenly had a plan in mind, so he said, “It’s not impossible to ally, but in the future, you have to be responsible for collecting and selling some things for me. As a reward, I can give you 10% of the profits!”
The biggest reason Mcgee decided to ally was that forging workshop.
Now that he had iron ore and could obtain iron blocks continuously, he would have to forge some things in the future.
If he were to do all of these things, it would definitely cause a huge uproar and attract some people’s attention.
A tall tree attracts the wind. This was not a good thing!
On the other side, Isaac Romon immediately agreed to Mcgee’s conditions after seeing that he had agreed to form an alliance.
“Okay! Then please take care of me in the future. Happy cooperation!”
Mcgee also sent a message, “Let’s work together happily!”
[System Notification: You have a new transaction application!]
Mcgee opened it and saw that it was the ‘Pitchfork from Mother Earth’ sent by Romon.
Since he had already made his decision, Mcgee did not hesitate and quickly accepted the transaction.
[System Notification: You have obtained a new item through the transaction, ‘Pitchfork from Mother Earth’!]
[Pitchfork from Mother Earth: After use, it can reshape the surrounding terrain according to your own ideas!]
[Usable Number: (3/3)]
[System Notification: This is a very precious consumable item, you must treasure it!]
Mcgee nodded his head in satisfaction.
“This is a good item. It might be useful at some point!”
Although the alliance agreement had been reached, Mcgee was still a little worried about Isaac Romon.
After all, there was no free lunch in the sky. He would have to be careful of this person.
The matter of the alliance agreement came to an end.
Mcgee’s thoughts were interrupted by the Spider Queen.
“Master, the water tank is empty!”
Mcgee was slightly stunned when he heard that.
Recently, because of the little Spirit Fox, he had not used the water tank much, so he ignored the situation of the water tank.
Now that the water tank was empty, it was troublesome.
Although he could rely on little Spirit Fox for his daily water consumption, what about the five spiders?
Moreover, summer was coming soon, so the farmland had to be watered daily!
Moreover, the forging workshop would also need a large amount of water in the future, so he absolutely could not do without water!
Thinking of this, Mcgee turned his head to look at the Steel Fairy.
The Steel Fairy needed a long time to be born, so it could be said that the Steel Fairy was the oldest native in the vicinity.
The Steel Fairy nodded when she saw Mcgee looking at her.
“I do know where there is water, but it’s hundreds of meters away from here!”
Mcgee said to the Steel Fairy, “It’s okay. Take us there to have a look.”
The Steel Fairy turned around and flew upstream.
Mcgee’s home was in an ancient riverbed, which was downstream.
Therefore, there was indeed a water source upstream.
Mcgee and little Spirit Fox followed the road closely.
The spiders were hanging far behind them.
The road was full of thorns. Finally, after walking for more than ten minutes, Mcgee and the others heard the sound of a stream.
This stream appeared out of nowhere. It was only a few dozen meters above the ground before its source appeared from below the ground.
After seeing it, Mcgee said with great satisfaction, “Underground river! With such water quality, there’s no need to filter it. Instead, you can drink it directly!”
The stream was murmuring, and occasionally, there would be a few fish swimming past.
Mcgee bent down and held a handful of water in his palm. Then, after seeing that there were no impurities, he drank it in one gulp.
The stream water was clear and sweet, and it was very cool. Drinking it would quench one’s thirst.
The little Spirit Fox also bent over to drink the water. After drinking it…
The little Spirit Fox was the first to speak.
“This is the best water I’ve ever drunk! It’s even better than the water in the water tank and the water I’ve gathered with my skills!”
After hearing this, Mcgee looked at the little Spirit Fox somewhat helplessly.
You’ve only been born less than ten days! Everything is the best to you!
Then, Mcgee said, “Alright! We drank the water. Let’s start digging trenches to draw water to our home!”
Upon hearing this, the little Spirit Fox immediately turned around and buried its head in digging.
Because Mcgee had just told it that if it drew water to its home, it would be able to bathe and swim in the river in summer!
The little Spirit Fox was very curious about swimming, so it dug the trenches with great enthusiasm!
Her two front claws kept digging on the ground, and in a short while, she had dug a few meters. In order to dig faster, she even used her claws to attack the ground.
The Spider Queen took a look and also brought the little spiders to help.
There was strength in numbers, and when the Spider Queen dug at the trench, her speed was also not to be underestimated.
After all, with the number of legs, there was a natural advantage.
With a wave of her eight sharp limbs, a deep ditch instantly appeared on the ground!
Mcgee, on the other hand, could not be of much help and could only stand aside to supervise.
