Chapter 25 The Captain's Evil Plan Begins with Planting Coconut Trees

Accompanied by Elizabeth's screams, the undead skull with its jaw constantly opening and closing was placed on Lynch's table.

Strangely enough, the skull in Elizabeth's hands became much quieter in Lynch's hands. Its chin only opened and closed occasionally, and the soul fire in its eye sockets became much more stable, with faint emotional fluctuations still visible.

Lin Qi lifted the skull, examined the soul fire carefully, and couldn't help but laugh: "So it was you."

Elizabeth, her large eyes misty with tears, sniffled, having recovered from her earlier fright. Seemingly forgetting the terror of the darkness, she looked curiously at Lynch and the skull on the table, asking, "Captain, do you know this undead?"

Upon hearing Elizabeth's voice, the skeleton that had been sitting obediently on the table suddenly became restless.

It kept opening and closing its chin as it circled on the table, then turned its head to look at Elizabeth. Its chin and head seemed to be on vibrate mode, constantly opening and closing.

The second mate, who was watching all this from outside the door, suddenly covered his mouth with his hand, turned around and ran to a corner outside the door, where he knelt down, clutched his stomach, opened his mouth, and frantically pounded the deck with his other hand.

Seeing this, Wangcai couldn't help but run over and circle around it with concern, wanting to see what was wrong with the skeleton.

Lin Qi, inside the captain's cabin, was unaware of the situation outside. He smiled and nodded, turning the skull back to face him. "Of course I know it. The two rice seeds I painstakingly found were killed by this guy with two sword strikes."

Upon hearing Lin Qi's words, the skull immediately stopped making any further moves.

Lin Qi tapped the skull on the head: "Alright, I didn't intend to make things difficult for you. You've been locked up for so long, you should be behaving yourself by now."

"I'll help you cast a spell later; it won't hurt you."

"Maybe one day when I'm in a better mood, I'll let you out to work for me, as a way of making amends for my past mistakes."

Upon hearing Lin Qi's words, the soul fire within the skull flickered twice, its chin tapped slightly, and then it made no further movements.

Lin Qi nodded: "Judging from your expression, I'll take that as your agreement."

As he spoke, Lin Qi picked up the skull and held it in his hand, while holding the moon coconut seed in his other hand.

Seed Fusion Technique activated.

A green light enveloped the skull and the seed. The skull seemed to sense something; the flames of its soul flickered in its eye sockets, and its mouth opened wide.

A moment later, Lin Qi opened his eyes in surprise: "It really works!"

"And the effect has actually improved by so much."

Compared to the previous combination of Moonlight Coconut and Plaster Skull, switching to a necromancer skull creates a completely different effect.

The original Moonlight Coconut can only be used as a temporary water source at best; only half of the coconut can hold coconut water comparable to spring water.

The new coconut, created by incorporating the undead skeletons, is filled with sweet water and is significantly larger than before.

For Lynch, the most crucial factor was not just the difference in water availability, but the fact that this thing could survive simply by being irrigated with seawater.

Moreover, Lin Qi had a premonition that the coconut had some other uses that he had not yet discovered, but perhaps because his skill level was too low, or perhaps because he had not yet been able to grow it, the rest was unknown.

But Lin Qi knew one thing: this thing had a high yield and a fast growth rate, making it a very valuable cash crop.

Lin Qi couldn't stop smiling. Just the fact that it could be irrigated with seawater, and that it could filter seawater into sweet mountain spring water, was enough for Lin Qi to choose it.

"Very good, it's you I've chosen."

Without further hesitation, Lin Qi closed his eyes.

Seed Fusion Technique activated!

A strange green light appeared on Lin Qi's hands, and a green thread extended from the head of the undead skull and the seed respectively, intertwining with each other.

The soul fire within the skull flickered continuously, and to Elizabeth and Wangcai's astonishment, the seed sprouted a tender green shoot.

What shocked them most was that the seed actually emitted a magical aura.

A moment later, Lin Qi opened his eyes, and the green light on his hand completely dissipated.

Lin Qi placed the skull on the table. The soul fire in the skull's eye sockets looked left and right, seemingly bewildered and unaware of what had happened.

Lin Qi, clutching the seed, chuckled and rushed out of the captain's cabin, arriving at the field where the seed had fully sprouted.

"Just as I expected, it's as resilient as a weed. It seems there's no need for any intensive cultivation, which saves me the trouble."

After assessing the seed's activity level, Lin Qi nodded in satisfaction.

Wangcai, who had already sensed what Lin Qi was about to do, took the hoe from the captain's cabin and came to Lin Qi.

"Thanks, Wangcai."

Lin Qi grabbed the hoe and quickly dug a small hole in the newly cultivated patch of Netherworld soil. He then carefully placed the brand-new seed into the hole.

Although this was a very hardy coconut, it was obvious to everyone that Lin Qi was moving much more gently now, as if he were afraid of damaging the seed.

There are actually quite a few moon coconuts on the island, and Lynch even has a seed in his hand, but the significance of this first new variety that he cultivated himself is different.

Nobody wants their first creation to become a failure, even if it's due to a small accident.

After burying the seed, I gently gathered the surrounding soil around it, leaving only the tender green shoots on top. Then, I took out a small cloth bag containing bone meal fertilizer from my chest pocket and sprinkled it around the seed.

Elizabeth blinked and asked cautiously, "Captain, should I go fetch some clean water?"

Lynch took a deep breath, stood up, glanced at Elizabeth, and suddenly said with a smile, "No need for clean water, just fetch some seawater and pour it around. Remember, don't pour too much."

Elizabeth paused slightly, tilting her head as she asked, "Won't the seawater kill it?"

But as soon as she said it, Elizabeth realized she had said something foolish. First of all, it was a coconut seed, and even if it was submerged in seawater, there couldn't be any problem. Besides, it was a coconut created by the captain using evil magic.

Elizabeth immediately stopped talking and ran to the upper deck, grabbed a small bucket, and threw it onto the water behind the ship.

A moment later, she brought a bucket of seawater to the seeds and carefully poured it around them. She stopped after pouring half a bucket of seawater, at Lin Qi's signal.

Lin Qi casually flicked out a growth spurt, and the tender green shoot, which was originally only the size of a little fingertip, grew upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye.
