I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 294 294. Iwamon Village, Earth Wine Pot

I just said that the Kingdom of Norland takes jujube pills!

Croya really resisted the urge to complain. There was a dragon in front of him!

Your Norland Kingdom is truly a "hidden dragon and crouching tiger", and you can come up with new tricks everywhere.

There is someone who raises a red dragon in the south, there is a favored person in the east, a dragon comes out in the west, and in the north... it is more complicated, so let’s not talk about it.

‘With how much control you have over the country, you still have the nerve to say you are a king, when you don’t even know where anything is.

And the Duke here is also a loser, right? ’

He cursed for a while, then raised his head and glanced at the behemoth, sensing the latter's mental fluctuations: "If you don't come, I will destroy these big boring toys."

The surrounding mist spreads as if it were alive, has separated other people from Croya, and it is impossible to touch or hear the sound even if they are close at hand.

"But you still show up now." Croya looked directly into Long's eyes: "Ms. Wulanlong, you really should think carefully about how to live in the West."

“I change the environment and believe it should be your instinct to adapt to the environment.”

His tone was calm.

Want to take apart my big toy? Even if I don't use constellations and other powers, I can still tear you apart now.

He really wants to coexist in harmony with nature as much as possible, but if there are some thorns that want to cause trouble, then he doesn't mind killing chickens to scare monkeys, oh no, killing dragons to scare others.

Wu Lanlong was immediately shocked when his own race was pointed out.

The number of dragons can drive scholars who specialize in Warcraft crazy, not to mention that they are sub-dragons, which are extremely rare.

After fleeing from Dragon Island, it has lived here for so long without being recognized by even a single mage.

It stared at the young mage.

And Croya looked at it calmly.

After a while, Wulanlong took the initiative to look away and invited: "Please take a look at my nursery, the home of these rock apes I have raised in captivity."

"Humans..."

Along with its mental power fluctuations, the surrounding fog suddenly began to change.

The magic power of the water vapor rises, and it actually forms an ability similar to space teleportation, bringing everyone who enters the mist to a very special place.

This seems to be located inside a canyon deep in the mountains, covered with various fruit trees, similar to pears, apples, bananas... anyway, common and uncommon fruit trees abound here.

Magic plants and ordinary fruit trees are planted together.

There has actually been no major change in the fluctuations and properties of magic power.

In addition, there are some fields next to the fruit trees that look like they have been cultivated, and some crops such as corn and wheat are actually planted in them.

The little rock monkeys were holding gourds or utensils made of lotus leaves, and they were watering the fields carelessly, looking as if they were playing.

"..."

"Your Majesty! Are they actually farming?"

"Can these monsters farm?"

In fact, the monsters in the north have learned to farm, but that is basically under human intervention and control, but these rock apes in front of them have never been tamed.

So it's normal for these people to be surprised.

The mage of the mermaid tribe saw something different.

She looked up at the mist flowing down the mountain like droplets, and explained: "Although Iwazaru has a high IQ, he still needs a powerful being to issue orders."

"There is a very powerful monster here."

She secretly glanced at Croya, who was standing aside without speaking, and felt a little panicked.

She didn't even notice how it was transferred here just now, which means that the monster here is more powerful than she expected, and she can't solve it!

If Croya hadn't been here, she would have activated the space magic device and asked for help.

Croya received the mermaid's request for help and gave her a reassuring look, indicating that she would lead the people to explore forward.

With Croya's permission, she immediately became bolder and waved her hand directly: "But you can rest assured, there won't be any problems with me here."

“This special environment will be of great help to us in building the Western Region.

You all should calm down and observe carefully. If you find anything, write it down. I will apply for magic crystal rewards for you when you get back! "

When it comes to the magic crystal reward, and her calm attitude, there is no danger. The others naturally observed their surroundings carefully as if they had cast an excitement spell.

After all, they are just hired workers, not people from the north. If you want them to work seriously, of course you need to give them enough benefits.

But in fact there is no need for them to observe.

Because soon, the strongest rock monkey just now came over, like a mountain, and roared twice at the people.

Everyone present has a certain ability to communicate with Warcraft. In addition, this giant rock ape has extremely strong mental power, so everyone can understand what it means——

"Follow me."

After King Iwazaru finished speaking, he waved his huge arm, and a group of strong Iwazaru jumped out from around him, standing on the left and right like a guard.

In this way, everyone was forced to move forward.

On the way, people were naturally watched by the rock monkeys around them for a while. It was only then that people felt incredible.

The number of rock monkeys here seems to be a bit scary. They live in trees and caves, which is extremely comfortable.

There should be thousands of them that can be seen alone.

You have to know that this kind of magic beast, which is basically the same size as humans, needs an extremely exaggerated amount of food to survive in certain places.

The food that a rock monkey eats every day is at least three to four times that of a human of the same size, and it may even be five or six times.

The fields they grow here... can they guarantee the lives of so many rock monkeys?

And what exactly is this place.

Why has no one in the Western Territory ever discovered it before?

Kroya frowned slightly, looked up at the clear sky, and the magic power rose in his body, locating this place through the position of the constellations.

Then he was surprised to find that this place was 300 kilometers away from the frontier of development, belonging to the deepest part of the Western Territory mountains.

"That dragon's ability is very special."

He glanced at the mountain in the distance, and it was clear that the guy was entrenched on it, staring at this place.

So it wasted its magic power to bring all of them here, and even showed them its fields and orchards. Was it really just to show off?

He didn't understand, but Wu Lanlong must have a reason for doing this. I hope this guy can show me something interesting.

Everyone walked and observed the rock apes who were farming.

The farming methods of these rock apes are completely different from those in the North, highlighting carelessness and the survival of the fittest.

They will decisively crush all the fruit trees and crops that are not very vigorous, and then bury them under the crops that are growing well.

The planting method also highlights a barbarity, as if saying to those crops: If you don't live, I will dig you all out and crush you!

This farming method will make any farming wizard in the North feel sad, but the crops here grow very well.

The survival of the fittest is intuitively demonstrated here, and every crop is full of vitality.

What is even more surprising is that in some streams and rivers, the rock apes are actually breeding some magic fish and slimes.

The captured magic fish and slimes will be made into dried fish and dried slime, plus dried fruit and dried meat... It seems very rich.

This is aquaculture, and the rock apes can actually raise fish.

The adult rock apes are busy farming, and some young rock apes are helping, while others are playing and fighting.

The atmosphere in the whole valley is unimaginably harmonious, and even gives people a dreamlike feeling.

"These rock apes..."

"They are so smart."

"Why are they so smart?"

The druids and beast speaker mages were puzzled. Although ape-like magic beasts are considered to have high IQs, they are not so exaggerated.

They are even close to humans.

They continued to move forward with deeper and deeper doubts, and finally completely left the rock ape village.

After walking for about ten minutes, the rock ape king led everyone into a cave, and there was an extremely fragrant smell of fruit wine in the cave.

There are streams flowing on both sides of this cave, which are full of clear wine. As you continue to move forward along the stream, the aroma of the wine becomes stronger and stronger, and finally...

A waterfall formed entirely of wine appeared in front of everyone. It was about dozens of meters high, flowing and splashing with fragrant wine.

The alcohol content of the wine should not be very high, at least Kloya did not feel dizzy.

‘Monkey wine? ’

After observation, he found that as long as the wine flows through the area, the discordant sounds and magic fluctuations in the earth will be smoothed by the aroma of the wine and become arable land.

What is going on? Is it the special magic in these wines, or is it actually some kind of sacrificial ritual that Kloya doesn't know about? This is obviously just fruit wine, but it can also smooth the abnormal movement of the earth?

He immediately became interested and walked directly to the front of the waterfall. He stretched out his hand and took a ball of wine with magic and felt it carefully.

The result surprised him a little bit - the magic structure in this wine is very special, at least there are hundreds of different magic fruits flowing in it, but it is extremely harmonious.     If you have to say it... it's like a furnace, wrapping all the magic inside, melting it into special magic.

While he was observing the wine, the Rock Ape King beside him suddenly squatted down and roared at Cloya twice.

That means "Come up."

"Are you going to carry me up?" Cloya didn't hesitate, he was really curious about what was up there.

It would be troublesome to fly up by himself, but he would be exposed, and now he still wanted to continue to disguise himself.

So he got on the back of the Rock Ape King directly.

Then, this huge ape directly pulled the surrounding vines and climbed very lightly, climbing to the highest point of the waterfall on the smooth rock wall.

The things above were exposed to Cloya's eyes -

In a pool, there was a huge wine pot that was about seven or eight meters high and three or four meters wide, woven from countless vines and branches.

Next to it, a rock monkey was throwing some ripe fruits into the wine pot.

There were also some vines with translucent skins growing around it, like water pipes, entwining the wine pot, with water waves flowing inside and some special spring water injected into it.

The most important thing was...

This wine pot is actually a magic plant.

Its name is "Earth Wine Pot".

Through the observation of the Star Spirit Body Imprinting Technique, the magic patterns inside this wine pot are very complex, not only some purification, fusion, but also full of vitality.

If this thing is not a magic plant, but some sophisticated magic guide, then Cloya may be able to accept it a little.

But it is a magic plant.

"Is this thing grown naturally, or cultivated by someone?" Cloya glanced at the Rock Ape King.

This guy is already a fourth-level magic beast, and his wisdom is actually not worse than some adults. In addition, it vaguely feels the powerful breath of Cloya.

So it "wowed" for a while from the bottom of its heart.

The general meaning is that the dragon discovered this place, and then took them together, gradually bringing out the role of this mysterious magic plant.

The land irrigated by the wine brewed by this wine pot seems to become extremely suitable for crop growth. It is because of this that they can live here for so long.

When answering Cloya's question, it was obviously uneasy. This was the basis for the survival of their Rock Ape tribe. It was very worried that Cloya would take away the wine pot.

It even... couldn't compete with Cloya.

In fact, its worry was indeed reasonable. As a mage, Cloya was really similar to the dragon in a sense.

For example, they both liked to hoard treasures.

Now there are a lot of treasures piled up in Cloya's treasure room, all of which were obtained during this period of time. Seeing those treasures shining, he would be in a good mood.

For a moment, Cloya really considered whether to pack it up and take it away, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

He could see that this "Earth Wine Pot" had completely merged with the surrounding magic environment. Taking it away by force would have a huge impact on both it and the Rock Ape tribe.

Is the cause of the Earth Wine Pot related to the Rock Ape tribe's love of brewing? How was it formed, and how can magic soothe the discordant sound of the earth.

These things are what Cloya is concerned about.

So, he reached out and patted the rock ape's muscles, which were as hard as rocks: "I will arrange people to trade with you. These wines are very useful to us.

You can tell me what you need."

In just a few minutes, he had already thought of how to use these wines to cultivate magic plants and repair the earth.

The only question is: can this kind of wine solve the disharmony of the earth in one go, or does it need to be irrigated all the time to achieve it.

If it is the latter, then the amount of wine required is definitely an astronomical figure. Can the rock ape village provide so much?

"Aww!" The rock ape king's eyes lit up, and he reached out and grabbed a small bag from the rock ape next to him, showing the contents to Cloya.

That is... a bag of salt.

To be more precise, it is a bag of yellowish coarse salt, which seems to be mineral salt.

"Are you short of salt?" Cloya wondered.

Since he built several salt ponds on the beach, the North has basically never lacked salt, even some magic salt.

"Aww!" The rock ape king nodded.

Although they are intelligent monsters and have the help of the Mist Dragon, it is very difficult to refine salt.

But salt is actually a necessity for monsters.

So it is very eager to get enough salt.

Kloya couldn't help laughing: "Salt is easy, I can arrange someone to check your body and provide you with salt that will help you."

In such a magical world, even the types and effects of salt are diverse.

There are table salt for ordinary people, flower salt for elves, moonlight sea salt loved by mermaids, and Brilliant Crystal Salt used by nobles for pretense and health...

As the most basic seasoning, salt has been extended and developed into many different types.

In order to build a good relationship with these rock apes, Kloya is of course willing to customize some salt for them-of course, after they like these salts, they will let Kloya control them.

How to say it, monopoly is probably like this.

The poor Rock Ape King was extremely happy when he heard what Cloya said, and generously let Cloya take away the stored wine on the spot.

At the same time, it also told Cloya: As long as there are enough fruits and clear mountain spring water, fruit wine can be brewed continuously without fermentation and secret storage.

"That's great!"

Both parties were very satisfied with the deal, and the Mist Dragon never appeared again from beginning to end - it seemed to be very afraid of Cloya.

...

After the Rock Ape King sent Cloya down, the Rock Apes moved and began to prepare a banquet -

They took their dried fish, dried fruits and wine, walked out of their nests, built a bonfire in an open space at the front-line base, and invited these friendly human friends to enjoy it together.

In fact, the conflict between them and humans is that humans want to transform the West, which will compress their living space, but this is no longer a problem with Cloya's help.

Of course, they are not stupid enough to go against humans.

The best way to maintain the relationship is to hold a party and invite human friends to enjoy the happiness with them.

It was getting dark at this time, and it was time to rest after a busy day.

The warriors who were driving the golems were already hungry. How could they resist such food?

The food of the rock apes tasted really good.

Although they didn't have enough salt, they had gifts from the mountains and forests. The juice of flowers and plants, the powder of ore, and even the blood of some monsters were their seasonings.

Take the most inconspicuous dried fish for example.

Kloya saw at least three layers of pickling marks on the surface of the dried fish. When he took a bite, the taste of the fish itself, the sweetness of the fruit, and an indescribable spicy taste ran rampant in his mouth.

At first, it felt a bit strange, but the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became, especially the fish bones inside, which were processed by some special methods and became tough and chewy, like eating beef tendons.

One fish made Kloya taste several different kinds of meat.

"It's really good."

He chewed the fish slowly, looked up at the gradually twinkling stars in the sky, and then looked at the rock apes in the distance pulling people together to dance with unknown meaning but extremely happy dance.

The huge bonfire was dancing with warm flames and exuding a resinous aroma.

Kloya watched quietly, his eyes were clear and he actually felt drowsy, which he hadn't felt for a long time.

The energy and physical strength of a level 6 mage have long been fundamentally different from those of ordinary people, and sleep may have become a luxury.

But he didn't want to fall asleep directly with this hard-earned sleepiness, just like a poor social animal looking forward to a vacation.

So he took out his harp and played with the beast talkers and druids who knew some music and held harmonicas and flutes next to him.

There was still no magic power, he even suppressed his mental power, just simply playing the right music to the lively atmosphere.

Various kinds of music mixed together, without distinction of primary and secondary, only joyful emotions.

The firelight danced in his eyes, reflecting the figures of those people who were happily dancing with the rock apes.

The cheerful atmosphere was like a blazing bonfire in the center of the venue, with flames soaring into the sky.

Kloya's mouth corners slightly raised.

He felt... it was great.

So he simply joined the dancing team while playing the harp.

Put aside all the trivial matters, put aside everything, and enjoy the joy of the moment.
