Lord of Plenty
Chapter 46 The Peeper in the Jungle
Kun turned his head and looked at the guards around him, saying:
"Go and look in the ruins. In addition to the normal-sized skeletons, are there any skeletons that are particularly large or as small as the size of fairies? Bring them all here."
"Yes, sir!"
Under Kun's order, the guards quickly moved and picked and chose among the skeletons on the ground.
Kun muttered, "It turns out that the ancient elven dynasty built such a magnificent ruins just to worship this clay tablet covenant."
For the ancient elves at that time, this clay tablet made of ordinary mud may have irreplaceable and important significance, but the elven dynasty was destroyed, and this covenant naturally no longer existed.
For humans, this is just a piece of mud with some historical significance, and its true value may not be as good as the rusty armor and weapons in the ruins.
Kun's face did not show any loss. What he sought was history, and this was undoubtedly part of the historical truth. He had obtained the knowledge he needed and seized the "treasure".
You should know that on the continent, the records of Titans have always existed only in myths and legends. Whether this powerful race that can stand tall and fight against gods really exists has always been a mystery in the magic world.
Now with the evidence of this covenant stone tablet, this part of history can undoubtedly be filled in. The Titans really existed on this continent.
As for the dwarf Yimi, this is the second time Kun has seen this name. The first time was in the ancient elf travelogue that he found in the treasure house of the Marquis's mansion. He thought that the travelogue was just a fabrication of an elf after getting drunk.
Kun took out the elf travelogue from the space ring in his hand and placed it on the covenant clay tablet.
"I didn't expect that what was said here was actually true. There are Titans and Dwarfs in this world. Then, are the descriptions of the purple moon, miracles, and sub-elves in this travelogue also true?"
"Sir, we searched through the bones in the core area of the ruins, but there were no bones that met your requirements, but we found these."
A guard was holding some dark red spheres as big as footballs in his arms. Most of them were damaged, as if they were chopped by some sharp weapons. Only a small part was intact, but it was also dim. Kun could not sense any vitality on them, as if they were just pieces of red stones with exhausted magic power.
Another guard was holding some exquisite and small armor and weapons.
"Such a small thing is hidden in the bones in the core area of the ruins. No wonder we didn't find it when we came in."
Although there are remains of armor and weapons, there are no bones of the two tribes.
Kun thought of the record in the Elf Travels that Titans would turn back into mountains after normal death, and mountains were rocks and soil, which meant that Titans were not flesh and blood, but elements, or similar lives.
The dwarf Yimi should be similar, and would turn into pure magic and dissipate after death. Therefore, in this important temple dedicated to the Three Races Covenant, the remains of the elves can be seen, but only a few traces of the existence of the other two races can be found.
"Alas, the fate of these two races is probably similar to that of the ancient elven dynasty. They have been completely annihilated in the long river of history. The ancient elves at least left a good name for the prosperity of the dynasty. These two races, one has become a legend, and the other has no historical records at all."
Being completely forgotten by history may be the most tragic fate of a civilized race.
Placed together with the clay tablets of the Three Races Covenant, there is also an ordinary-looking box. The material is the same as the wood of the altar. It is made of branches of the elven mother tree, but it has also lost its breath of life like the roots of the mother tree outside.
With a heavy heart, Kun solemnly picked up the wooden box and slowly opened it. His heart was pounding. It was the first time in his life that Kun was so excited. Even his hands holding the wooden box trembled slightly, as if he was holding up the last hope of a brilliant civilization.
In this relic, the three tribes' warriors guarded it together. It was not only the covenant stone tablet, which was more meaningful than practical, but also the things in this wooden box.
In the center of the three tribes' covenant clay tablet, there was a seed pattern carved. If he guessed correctly, the box should contain a seed of the mother tree of life!
A seed used to continue the civilization of the three tribes when necessary. It is an important thing that can be said to be the civilization inheritance of the ancient elf civilization.
"Click~"
The wooden box, which was originally locked by a living branch, was easily opened by Kun because it lost the support of the huge vitality of the mother tree of life.
"Where are the seeds? Where are the seeds as big as mine? Gone?"
Kun, who was unwilling to give up, used his strength to break open the fragile and dry wooden box in his hand, checking if there was any hidden layer. Finally, he stared at the sawdust on the ground and stood there in a daze.
No one's mood would be very good if they suddenly fell from the sky to the abyss.
That was a seed of the Mother Tree of Life. Kun was also a fertility mage. If there was anything on the Yongxu Continent that Kun wanted the most, or wanted to see with his own eyes, the Mother Tree of Life was undoubtedly the first in his mind.
It was difficult for anyone to calm down the disappointment of missing out on the dream.
In Kun's expectation, the worst result was that the seeds of the Mother Tree of Life would be taken away by the crystallized skeleton warrior using the broken sword, just like the roots of the Mother Trees of Life in the ruins.
But it didn't matter. As the only fertility mage on this continent, Kun was confident that one day he would find a way to revive the seeds of the Mother Tree of Life, whether it took ten years or a hundred years.
The Mother Tree of Life, the most magical plant on the continent, is said to be the ultimate form of life in all plant evolution. It sprouted again, took root, and grew on the Yongxu Continent.
As a result, that damn bastard did it so thoroughly that he destroyed the seed completely. If it weren't for the fact that the crystallized skeleton warrior's soul had dissipated, Kun wanted to drag the dead guy out of the grave and kill him a hundred times.
"I'm lucky if I get it, and I'm dead if I lose it. Maybe this is the will of the Yongxu Continent. The disappeared civilization should not be revived again."
With a sigh, Kun adjusted his mood.
In addition to the fact that the seeds of the Mother Tree of Life were destroyed, which made Kun very regretful, this unplanned trip to the ruins was a huge harvest. Since the harvest was huge, who would he show his sad face to?
At first, Kun was just fighting the gold-eating earth dragon and the blood-terrorizing wolf pack, and he, as a fisherman, was just trying to pick up a loophole. However, the two that originally posed a major potential threat to the safety of the Plenty Territory died suddenly without any of his soldiers. This was what Kun had expected, the least likely and the best result.
Even if most of the corpses of the two hundred demon wolves were destroyed by the gold-eating earth dragon, the remaining monster materials that could be stripped were still a large amount of funds.
Those were not ordinary monster materials, but the blood-terrorizing wolf, a well-known fierce monster on the continent. Few mercenary groups were willing to provoke them, because they were rare and had higher value.
As long as these monster materials could be transported to the southern city and sold, the construction funds of the Plenty Territory would no longer be so tight, and his tax collectors would also lose less hair.
Whether it was the corpse of the fourth-level ancient dragon, or the thousand-year-old wood in the ruins that was so numerous that it could cover the entire Black Stone Castle, or even the high-purity magic holy water, these things were extremely rare and precious. Only the stupidest guys would exchange these things for gold coins that could be earned at any time.
So Kun was going to issue a gag order to the guards, and he could do this with the help of a precious contract scroll he had seized from the 'Leon' space necklace. No one was allowed to leak the news here, otherwise it would be asking for trouble.
Of course, Kun would not be stingy with their rewards.
These were all ancient rules agreed upon by the lords and knights. All the gains belonged to the lords, but the lords also had the obligation to 'distinguish rewards and punishments'.
Was it also a kind of sitting and dividing the spoils?
Before returning to the Rich Territory to continue his farming career, Kun first used ice magic to freeze the corpses of the monsters to prevent the reproduction of bacteria and the breeding of mosquitoes from reducing the quality of the monster materials.
Especially the corpse of the fourth-level earth dragon, because it is too huge, it is difficult to transport it out by ordinary methods. Kun simply cut it into hundreds of pieces. At that time, all these magic beast materials need to be stored in the cellar of Black Stone Castle before processing.
As for the remaining ten thousand year wood and high concentration magic holy water, except for the ten thousand year wood Kun secretly took a piece, Kun planned to put the rest here first.
Anyway, the ruins are here and they will not run away. When the time comes, set up a few defensive magic circles here and seal the entrance to the ruins. It is very safe, and there is really no place to store these things in the Rich Territory.
Finally, Kun used a drop of earth dragon blood to perform the "Golden Rule" to imitate the breath of the earth dragon. The breath of the earth dragon was left on the road from the blood horror wolf's nest to the Rich Territory.
I think that within a period of time, no more magic beasts will dare to approach this side, so he can send more people to transport the harvest in the magic wolf's nest back to the Rich Territory as soon as possible and safely.
After leaving the Ever Dark Forest, Kun looked back at the direction of the ancient elf ruins for the last time and frowned slightly. This trip to the magic wolf's lair was very fruitful, but he always felt as if he had overlooked something important?
There was also a strange feeling of being spied on.
Kun did not notice that on a tall tree somewhere in the forest, a pair of small eyes were staring at him with doubts. The next moment, when Kun's mental power was about to sweep across this area, it disappeared on the original branches, and the movement was amazingly fast.
Returning to the Rich Territory, Kun started the spring plowing work without stopping. The spring plowing really didn't wait for anyone.
Dawn's injury caused a panic among the residents of the territory. After all, as the strongest person in the territory in the eyes of the public, a well-known third-level warrior in the kingdom, he actually lost an arm in the forest. There must be some terrible monster in the forest.
It was not until the members of the guard team pulled out the bodies of the bloody magic wolves from the forest that the people realized that they were sleeping not far from a nest of magic wolves and could be attacked at any time.
After learning about this situation, the Lord personally led the soldiers of the guard team to wipe out the group of magic wolves. The sudden burst of white light that appeared at noon was a high-level magic released by the Lord, and the damned group of magic wolves had been cleared out without a single one left.
After the three territorial officials spoke out and made a big fuss, the panic of the residents of the territory gradually subsided. After all, people can lie, but the hundreds of magic wolf corpses that need to be cut up in front of the Blackstone Castle will not lie.
Indeed, a large group of magic wolves were wiped out by the Lord, maintaining the safety of the Rich Territory. This made the residents of the territory who had been plagued by magic beasts grateful and respectful, and they felt that Lord Kun was a perfect lord that was hard to find even with a lantern.
Because Kun's prestige in Fengrao Territory became more and more solid, the various policies and plans he promulgated were also smoothly implemented, and the three territorial officials encountered less and less obstacles.
Even if some people did not understand the significance of these policies and plans, they did not object. Everything was just as Kun planned at the beginning, and slowly went on the right track.
Once the overall framework of Fengrao Territory was established, he could free up his hands. As for the work of adding bricks and tiles and gradually enriching the flesh and blood of Fengrao Territory, the behemoth, he could leave it to his subordinates and the residents of the territory to slowly improve it.
A true leader only needs to control the direction. If he does everything himself, it will cause dissatisfaction among his subordinates.
After working hard for more than half a month, even the beautiful mage Latifah was darkened, and the Blue Armor Bear King, whose strength was comparable to that of a third-level magic beast, was exhausted. Only then did he complete the sowing of all the farmland in Fengrao Territory before the end of this year's spring plowing time.
A total of 6,737 acres of land were planted with high-yield and high-quality seeds that Kun had worked hard to get, carrying the ultimate goal of unlocking the mark of abundance in Kun's hand, as well as the farmers' beautiful wishes for a good harvest.
Riding on the huge blue-armored bear and walking on the newly paved field road, Kun looked at the large area of fertile black soil that had been neatly cultivated and smiled with satisfaction.
Although there were many twists and turns and many problems and difficulties during the period, these seeds were finally planted.
What he planted was not only seeds, but also hope.
Just look at the eyes of the residents in Fengrao Territory and you will know that everyone's eyes are full of enthusiastic expectations for the future, which has never happened in the land of Fengrao Territory.
The residents of the territory who avoided Kun before now not only do not hide when they see Kun, but will take the initiative to salute him, and will also give the wild flowers and fruits picked from the mountains and the wild rabbits and birds they caught to the guards following Kun.
And it's not just Kun who has this treatment. The three territory officials are in a similar situation. Every time they go out for a walk, there will be something in their arms and pockets. Although the value is not great, it is the best gift that the residents of the territory can give.
Kun believes that he has not done anything big. He just built his own private flower garden and planted some fields to unlock the mark of abundance.
Moreover, planting seeds is only the first step. It's still early for the harvest. Why are these people so happy?
Kun is actually a little hard to understand.
