Chapter 50: Capturing Undead Creatures

Green, at this moment, said in a deep voice, "Young Master, isn't it a bit unsafe to keep this thing in the space? This thing is poisonous."

Zhao Hai quickly smiled and said, "It's fine, Grandpa Green. Let's go drink water and call everyone over to drink it. Only by drinking this water will we no longer fear the poison." After saying this, he turned and walked towards the spring in front of the thatched cottage. The crocodile skeleton obediently followed five steps behind Zhao Hai, like a loyal dog.

When they reached the spring, they didn't notice anything special about it. The spring was still just a spring, with no changes at all.

Zhao Hai and the others were a bit puzzled, but Meg still ran to the house to get cups, while Wood and Stone went to call the slaves who were almost obsessed with practicing calligraphy.

Meg brought over a few cups, and Zhao Hai drank a mouthful of water first. He smacked his lips, finding no taste, and put down the cup. Then he walked towards the crocodile skeleton.

Green, who had just drunk the water, quickly pulled Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, let me do it. Your body isn't in good condition right now. If the water doesn't work, I can use my aura to resist, but you can't."

Zhao Hai thought about it and nodded. Green walked to the crocodile skeleton, took a deep breath, and extended his hand. Zhao Hai and the others watched Green nervously. When Green placed his hand on the crocodile skeleton, everyone held their breath unconsciously.

Nothing happened! Green was fine. He patted the crocodile skeleton's bones forcefully, but still, nothing happened. It seemed that the water really had a detoxifying effect.

After patting the crocodile skeleton a few more times, Green smiled and said, "It's fine, Young Master. It seems this water really works."

Zhao Hai nodded and walked to the crocodile skeleton, touching it. The crocodile skeleton wagged its large tail vigorously, almost hitting a nearby slave.

Zhao Hai couldn't help but pat the crocodile skeleton and said, "Don't wag your tail wildly. What if you hit someone? You big guy, you're quite interesting, and you're a mutant. Since that's the case, I'll call you Alien."

Zhao Hai found it quite amusing. On Earth, he had always liked the horror movie "Alien," and this crocodile skeleton was so strange that Zhao Hai decided to call it Alien.

The big guy seemed to understand Zhao Hai's words and wagged its tail even more enthusiastically, but this time it didn't move widely, only trembling slightly.

Zhao Hai didn't pay much attention to it, patted Alien's head, and said, "Go lie down behind the house." After saying this, he turned to Green and said, "Grandpa Green, do you think we can capture more undead creatures?"

Green thought for a moment and said, "That's a good idea, but the space is only so big. We can't fit too many undead creatures in here."

Zhao Hai frowned, realizing he had forgotten this point. The space was only about ten acres, and ten of those acres were for farming. Zhao Hai couldn't let the undead creatures occupy that area. The remaining space had to be used for the slaves' living quarters. Apart from these areas, there wasn't much space left, and the undead creatures were almost as big as Alien. Even if they were smaller, they wouldn't be much smaller. If he brought all of them into the space, there wouldn't be enough room.

Zhao Hai walked around for a few circles and suddenly remembered the space's notification. The space had classified Alien as a robot-like object, not a living being, but an object. This meant the space didn't recognize Alien as a living being. If Alien wasn't a living being, could he be stored in the warehouse? If that was possible, the space could accommodate more undead creatures, and Zhao Hai might even be able to pretend to be a summoner.

Thinking this, he decided to try it. Since Alien was already in the space, Zhao Hai just needed to think about it to test his idea.

Zhao Hai's thoughts turned, and indeed, the Alien that had just lain down behind the house disappeared. Zhao Hai immediately walked to the warehouse and touched it. The warehouse's interface immediately appeared, and Alien became a small icon inside, a crocodile skeleton icon with its mouth open and claws outstretched.

Zhao Hai couldn't help but laugh and turned to Green, saying, "Grandpa Green, don't worry. These undead creatures can be stored in the warehouse and won't take up space."

Green nodded happily and said, "That's great. With these undead creatures, Young Master's safety will be even more secure. In the future, Young Master can just wear a mage's robe and put on a mage's hat and walk around the continent. Young Master can pretend to be a summoner, and no one on the continent will suspect it, let alone think it's you because you drank the Void Water."

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's good. Grandpa Green, let's capture more undead creatures now. If we capture more, we can place the undead creatures at the edge of the Black Earth Wasteland, making people think the monsters haven't left. This will make our place even safer."

When Green heard Zhao Hai say this, his eyes lit up. They hadn't thought of this. Green curiously asked, "Young Master, should we bring in some monsters too?"

Zhao Hai thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "No, monsters are different from undead creatures. The space can classify undead creatures as objects, not living beings, but monsters are definitely living beings. Living beings might not fit in the warehouse, and they would take up too much space. Moreover, the space might not be able to make the monsters ours."

Green nodded, realizing he had been a bit greedy. It was already good that the space could change undead creatures. If it could also change monsters, that would be truly amazing.

Actually, Zhao Hai had more to say. His level and money were not enough to open a ranch. Once they opened a ranch, they might be able to tame those monsters. For now, he had only opened a farm, which could only be used for farming.

Zhao Hai looked at Merlin and the others and said, "Grandma Merlin, please arrange for the slaves to go to a safer place. We're going to capture those undead creatures, and I'm afraid they might get hurt."

Before Merlin could speak, she said, "Young Master, leave it to me. I'll have Chrysanthemum and Anne take them to the oil tree field. I believe it will be safe there."

The oil trees were not very tall, only about five meters high, and there were no branches for about one meter from the ground, so people could walk underneath them. It was the best place for the slaves to stay.

Zhao Hai nodded and walked towards the thatched cottage. Suddenly, he stopped because he noticed two bottles placed under the window.

These two bottles looked very ordinary. If they were on Earth, no one would pay attention to them. They might even kick them if they were on the road.

But Zhao Hai stared at the two bottles, as if they were Yuanqing porcelain, because the bottles had words written on them: one said "pesticide," and the other said "herbicide"!

The words were in Chinese, so Green and the others didn't know what they said. Zhao Hai, of course, knew, but he wasn't paying attention to the words. Instead, he remembered the space's previous notification: extract toxins, enhance the toxicity of toxic compounds in the space!

Zhao Hai had never understood what this meant because he didn't remember any toxic compounds in the space. But when he saw these two bottles, he understood. These two things were toxic compounds!

Indeed, the pesticides and herbicides in the space were toxic. If their toxicity was increased, even people who ate vegetables sprayed with these agents might be poisoned.

Zhao Hai wanted to confirm his idea. He walked to the window, picked up the pesticide bottle, and this time, the space didn't give a notification. Instead, the information appeared directly in his mind: pesticide, toxic compound, can kill pests, dosage, unlimited, toxicity strength adjustable.

Zhao Hai immediately understood. The pesticide was the same as before, but it had an additional feature: the strength of the toxicity could be adjusted, which wasn't possible before.

Putting down the pesticide, Zhao Hai picked up the herbicide, and the result was similar. It also had an additional feature: the toxicity could be adjusted.

Putting down the bottles, Zhao Hai was quite satisfied. Everything in the space could be upgraded in various ways. As long as his level was high enough, he believed he wouldn't fear any expert in this world.

Green and the others looked at Zhao Hai's actions in confusion, not knowing what he was doing. When they saw Zhao Hai stand up, Merlin asked in confusion, "Young Master, what are these two bottles for?"

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "The contents of these two bottles are toxic. One can be used to kill pests on crops, and the other can kill weeds in the fields. The space extracted toxins from Alien and increased the toxicity of the agents in these two bottles. I just wanted to confirm if this was true."

Merlin and the others were stunned. They had never thought these two bottles could have such uses. Although there were many alchemists and potion masters on the continent, they were highly respected, and people generally didn't place much importance on agricultural production. Therefore, there were no specialized pesticides or herbicides on the continent, and this was the first time Merlin and the others had heard of such things.

Green, of course, knew what these two agents meant. He immediately said to Zhao Hai, "Young Master, can these two things be used outside the space?"

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Of course, and there's no limit to their usage. They can be used freely."

Green clapped his hands and said, "Great! With these two things, we won't have to worry about pest infestations in the future."
