Knight Lord: Start with Daily Intelligence

#82 - Cultivating the Herbal Medicine Field

The "Blood of the Earth" potion, despite its seemingly bloody name, doesn't appear strange at all. On the contrary, the emerald green potion glows softly within its transparent glass bottle, radiating energy and vitality at first glance.

After Fandal emphasized the difficulty of making this potion, Su Li took the rough wooden box from him and, looking at the radiant and translucent potion inside, asked, "What is the value of this potion?"

Fandal carefully helped Su Li hold the wooden box, fearing that Su Li might accidentally drop it and break the three precious potions.

"Each of these potions is worth at least 100 gold coins."

"That expensive?" Su Li and the guards beside him couldn't help but exclaim. 100 gold coins for one potion could almost buy an elite knight!

Fandal patiently explained, "This potion is not only difficult to make, but more importantly, no matter how skilled the alchemists in the potion workshop are, they can't create it."

Su Li instantly understood why Fandal insisted that a monastery was necessary to produce the potion. He wasn't exaggerating. "So, this divine potion must be made in a monastery?"

Fandal shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Even within the monastery, the priests and nuns who have mastered making the potion cannot make it normally. Only when they sense the goddess's divine grace one day will they be blessed with the inspiration to create this Blood of the Earth potion."

"Because only divine grace can mobilize the power of the earth. The reason I was able to make three Blood of the Earth potions is because our monastery was newly built and caught the goddess's eye. Moreover, our territory is full of vitality, which aligns with the goddess's teachings, so the goddess bestowed divine grace as a reward."

The Goddess of Dawn is truly a generous goddess, unlike some green tea goddesses who claim to be goddesses.

Su Li curiously asked, "Now that the monastery is built, has the Goddess of Dawn bestowed any other divine grace upon our territory and church?"

Fandal's answer surprised Su Li. "Yes, one of our church's three novice nuns was granted divine grace and promoted to a formal nun, mastering a divine skill: Geyser."

"After casting the divine skill, a geyser can erupt from a certain area of natural soil, knocking down (and possibly launching) anyone within range at the nun's chosen location. After the initial eruption, a small pool of water will form in the designated area, providing fresh water for the next hour."

This is a divine skill that combines combat and production.

Its significance in production is undeniable. It is a mobile water conservancy facility that can irrigate any farmland that needs irrigation.

Even in combat, it has a significant effect. If it erupts among enemy troops and beasts, it could knock down a squad of people. Even if the damage cannot penetrate armor, falling to the ground on the battlefield is still fatal.

If used well, using it two or three times in a battle could have a considerable impact.

However, this requires the supplement of vitality potions. As far as Su Li knows, neither formal knights nor formal nuns can use their extraordinary abilities more than twice.

Vitality potions can increase the activity of their bodies and minds, thereby increasing the number of times they can use their extraordinary abilities.

So Su Li instructed Fandal, "Now that the monastery has been built, other potions can also be produced with all our strength. Don't save on materials."

Fandal nodded in agreement, saying, "I've checked our storage of medicinal materials, and it's not very sufficient. Of course, I'm not complaining. Our territory is just starting out, and everything is in short supply. I will make the most of all the medicinal materials and estimate that I can produce 5 Vitality Potions, 3 Purification Potions, and 10 Healing Potions."

These two potions also have very good effects. Purification potions can be used to purify water sources or treat mild poisoning, and healing potions, as the name suggests, can heal wounds. The materials for these two potions are not ordinary, requiring the use of Swiftgrass, Bruisewort, and Peacebloom.

The first two of these herbs are relatively easy to find. Hunters can pick up dozens of pounds when hunting and gathering, but the latter Peacebloom is collected by Su Li bit by bit through intelligence.

So Su Li said, "Now that we can produce potions, we must seize the supply of medicinal materials. Relying solely on collection is unlikely to meet the needs of pharmaceutical production. My Minister of Agriculture, agriculture is the best source of stable supply of medicinal materials. Have you considered planting Peacebloom?"

Fandal's spirits lifted, and he asked, "Lord, do you want to set up a farm dedicated to managing elixirs?"

Su Li immediately waved his fist and said spiritedly, "Compared to leaving it to fate with collection, I prefer to control my own destiny. My Minister of Agriculture, Religious Advisor, do you think my idea is feasible?"

Fandal stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's not easy. Peacebloom rarely gathers in patches. Even in the wild, they are far apart, distributed in various places. Generally, in a forest, they are several miles apart, and a Peacebloom will be born in a place with vigorous vitality."

"This is because they need to absorb enough Gillon's Wind energy to grow and bloom. Gillon's Wind, also known as the Wind of Life, theoretically exists in every place where life is born because Gillon's Wind has blown through."

"Of course, this does not mean that Peacebloom cannot be planted at all. If we can condense enough life energy on a piece of land, Peacebloom can appear in patches. They rarely gather in patches in the wild, but that doesn't mean they don't exist at all. I have seen a large number of Peaceblooms blooming around an ancient tree in a forest. I guess that may be the energy brought by the ancient tree of life."

Ancient tree of life?

Su Li was also stumped by this condition. This is a high-level plant that many elven towns and even elven cities have. Many elven kingdoms, tribes, and towns are built around the ancient tree of life.

Ancient elven legends record that it can continue to be promoted to Ancient Tree, Epoch Tree, Eternal Tree, and World Tree.

Of course, other races believe that this is an elven fantasy legend. In this world, there is only one Eternal Tree in the royal court of wood elves. The World Tree is something that no race or god has ever seen. Most elves do not believe that the World Tree really exists. Only some fanatical people who are out of their minds firmly believe that the World Tree exists, but the Eternal Tree lacks certain conditions, so it has not been able to be promoted to the World Tree.

In elven religious legends, if anyone can help the elves successfully cultivate a World Tree, then according to the ancient covenant, the elves should be his closest comrades, regard him as the Lord of the World, help him win the throne of God, and follow him to participate in wars in various planes.

Mythology is too far away from Su Li. With his strength, he can't even deal with a green dragon, let alone take down an elven kingdom and steal their ancient tree of life.

Su Li still chose a more reliable method. He recalled the information in the daily intelligence system and remembered that a spring full of energy had briefly appeared during the earthquake in the Thorns River Valley.

Perhaps irrigating with this spring water can also meet the energy needs of Peacebloom.

Su Li then said to Fandal, "First, take the nuns and serfs to cultivate a few acres of medicinal fields, first plant Swiftgrass and Bruisewort, then prepare Peacebloom seeds. I want to think about whether there is any way to solve their energy supply. If I find a way, I will immediately plant the Peacebloom seeds."

Fandal immediately nodded and replied, "No problem, I have already collected more than 300 active seeds from Peacebloom and stored them in the monastery's warehouse. As soon as you notify me, I can plant them immediately."

After discussing this issue, Su Li then curiously asked with great interest, "Then my Religious Advisor Minister, what divine skill did you obtain from the Goddess of Dawn?"

"I have two divine skills. One is the combat skill [Rhea's Wrath], which allows me to silently recite scriptures and feel the power of the Goddess of Life, Rhea, surging within me to protect those who need protection. This divine skill can only be cast when protecting children, homes, or inhabited farms. The effect is to gain psychological immunity and painlessness, and to gain enhanced melee, strength, and toughness."

"The other divine skill is [Life Weaving], which is used to spread the goddess's teachings. It can blow vigorous vitality into an area or object that previously had no life. The development of many places in our territory is due to its effect. It can take many forms, such as water flowing through a dry riverbed again. Clean, fresh water can be drawn from previously contaminated wells. Ripe fruit appears in withered orchards. Fresh milk is produced by sick or unproductive cows. Oh, right, the survival of the Lightscale Fish before was also due to the effect of [Life Weaving]."

What a magical world, the more Su Li understands, the more he feels that this world is full of strange and bizarre fantasy colors.

And he himself is still a transcendent, so he couldn't help but turn to Hilde beside him and ask, "You believe in the Goddess of the Blazing Sun and are already a formal knight, you should have also obtained a divine skill, right? What is your divine skill?"

Hilde said, "I obtained a combat-oriented divine skill called [Blazing Blade], which can chant the hymn of the Goddess of the Blazing Sun. If a rune weapon is used, it will be attached with a layer of sacred flames, and any target hit will suffer burning and knockdown."

"Then what about our commander, Knight Orstein? What is his divine skill? Is it [Eagle Eye View]?"

"Yes. Our Goddess of the Blazing Sun, whom we believe in, is the goddess in charge of tactics and strategy, so Knight Orstein obtained the tactical abilities [Eagle Eye View] and [Blazing Sun Shield]. I heard him say that the Grand Commander of the Crimson Night Knights, Lord Oldred, has the divine skill [Beacon of Righteous Virtue]. If Knight Orstein can visit the temple of the Goddess of the Blazing Sun again, he will likely obtain this ability as well."

"After possessing [Beacon of Righteous Virtue], as long as Knight Orstein prays loudly in the name of the goddess, the sacred fire of justice will pour into his body. All allies in his sight will have their collapse, fear, weakness, and other states removed, and if they are still in sight during the duration of the divine skill, they will temporarily gain the fearless and heroic traits, and their attack power will be greatly improved. At the same time, any greenskins or vampires in his sight will be affected by fear."

"That's too strong." Su Li couldn't help but ask, "Does every believer gain such powerful divine skill abilities?"
