The Collection of The End

"Collect Doomsday ()"

On the "Smooth Planet" after the rollback, all races live in harmony, and the sight of a prosperous scene proves that there is no food crisis at this time.

Judging from the order of national expansion, since Mana mainly grows in the sea, most member states are close to the seaside. They gradually expanded inland after being established for a period of time.

The timing of the rollback was good. The ruins from the previous destruction covered the entire land, and some maritime cities were even built in the sea.

In the "future", when the First Alliance encountered a food crisis, it conducted careful research on its causes and made many research results that were ineffective in changing the status quo.

'Well...most of the opinions are that the population is too large, which is why it led to the great chaos that swept the world. ’ I asked Malefiya to stop in a position where she would not be detected by the First Alliance, and read through the compiled information.

[No, no, no, the real reason is that ‘Mana’ has reduced production. ] The stupid system posted some pictures with less text, which show the changes in the growth range of Mana over the years.

Their growth range has changed from spreading throughout the entire ocean to gradually retreating away from the coast and into the deep sea, as if they are far away from civilization.

By the way, the thousand races of the First Alliance actually have more than two thousand kinds of languages. I highly doubt that each of their tribes has a "dialect".

The profession of translator must be very popular in the First Alliance.

'So, why is something that supports so many races in decline? ’

[Because the population is too large. 】

‘…’

Malefia started kicking Thela Soido's octopus head hard.

[Wait, I don’t mean the same thing as you, let me explain——]

‘You explain, I’m listening. ’

Malefia kicked her twice more.

[Hey... you said that the number of 'populations' is too many, but I said that the number of 'populations' is too many. ] The stupid system also specially created a text panel to highlight two different words.

'That is, if there is only one or two main organisms on this planet like previous civilizations, Mana will not reduce production no matter how large their population is? ’

【That's it. 】

‘What’s the reason? Why does Mana production decrease when there are more races? ’

[Because that’s not ‘food’, but ‘star soul’. 】

The thing sounds a bit familiar. It seems that Mr. Sa likes to cause trouble for them, but the star soul itself is not for food. To use an analogy...

‘Azerite? ’

[Uh, almost. 】

Maybe I used Warcraft as the background to fool around with "Cyberlux" for a long time, but now I always think in that direction.

The so-called "Azerite" is what flowed out after the planet Azeroth was stabbed by Sargeras. It is also called the "blood of Azeroth", but everyone there has been taken away. If it is used as a weapon, it cannot be eaten.

‘So, what is the relationship between star soul and population size? ’

[Because the Gaia consciousness of this 'good weather planet' is a weird guy. He seems to think that it is his responsibility to take care of the life born on the planet. In order to prevent the fight between carnivorous creatures and vegetarian creatures, he used the star soul to create 'Mana' that can be eaten by both sides. 】

‘...If converted to humans, it would be raising mosquitoes? ’

[That’s why I say He is a weirdo. As a Gaia, normally he should find a way to get rid of the parasites on his body. 】 There was obvious disdain in Stupid System's tone.

‘Have you revealed your true thoughts? ’

[They both said it’s ‘normal’. Which one of us do you think is ‘normal’? 】

‘...Well, it’s true that Alaya and Gaia, who are not doing their jobs properly, are actually players and a stupid system pursuing the undead level. ’

【I'm not stupid! 】

‘So, why did Mana reduce her production? ’

[You don’t think there is anything that can be eaten by all kinds of creatures on the planet without distinction, do you? When they are eaten by every living thing,

Gaia will adjust them to adapt to their feeding habits. This action does not consume much when there are relatively few races, but now...]

‘A thousand races, that’s a lot? ’

[If you only do this one thing, it is indeed not much, but the problem is that this is not Gaia's main business, and the attention that the will of the planet can allocate to this action is limited. 】

When saying this, the stupid system pulled up a separate screen, showing the scene of two creatures eating Mana at the same time. It can be clearly seen that the Mana, which was originally exactly the same, had obvious differences after being eaten and before it began to be digested. changes in molecular structure.

Next, there were four, eight, sixteen, and finally it became a densely packed eating scene that could make someone with trypophobia sick, and every piece of mana in it would have different changes after eating.

Another picture that appeared simultaneously was the shrinking range of Mana output.

[After exceeding the capacity limit, Mana will either become inedible or production will be reduced. 】Stupid system makes a summary.

‘…No creature on this planet eats anything else? ’

[Yes, yes, after entering the civilization stage, the First Alliance developed some other unique foods, but they are still far behind the total demand. 】

The stupid system once again showed some food made from plants and fungi, but judging from the expressions of the First Alliance members who ate them, their taste was obviously unsatisfactory.

'Tsk, I originally thought I wanted to help this civilization develop agriculture...'

[Unlikely, what kind of agricultural products can meet the needs of each of a thousand major races at the same time? And if you develop new food sources for each creature, you will be on the old path of editing a thousand attributes of Mana by the will of the planet. Although you should be able to support this kind of consumption, it is not necessary, right? 】

‘Hmm… So what efforts did Alaya on this planet do when the First Alliance was about to perish? ’

【Alaya? What alaya? 】

‘That’s it—eh? ’

Halfway through the words, I remembered that there is no dominant race on this planet. How can a group consciousness be born among a thousand races with almost no similarities? Stitches weird?

[It must be said that the earliest intelligent race, the ‘Big Eyed Monkeys’, reluctantly gave birth to Alaya, but there are no traces of his involvement in the records of the First Alliance. You can call him out and ask. 】

‘Then, you first find a place to land. ’

At this time, since it has just entered the stage of civilization, the "Big-eyed Monkey" and its allied races are all working hard to develop. Choosing its capital city should be able to call out its Alaya.

The only concern is whether He can communicate.
