Chapter 294 294. Rock Monkey Village, Earth Wine Pot
I just said that the Norland Kingdom takes jujube pills!
Chloë 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 raising a red dragon in the south, there is a favored one 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 again, 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 Western Territory.”
"I will change the environment. I believe it should be your instinct to adapt to the environment."
His tone was calm.
Want to dismantle 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.
Wulinlong was shocked when his race was named.
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 escaping 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 also 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."
"Human..."
As its mental power fluctuated, 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.
The fluctuations and properties of magic power have actually not changed much.
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 grown in them.
The little rock monkeys are holding gourds or utensils made of lotus leaves, watering the fields carelessly, looking like they are 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 is normal for these people to be surprised.
The mage of the mermaid tribe saw something different.
She looked up at the mist flowing down from 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 realize how it was transferred 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.
After receiving the mermaid's request for help, Croya gave her a reassuring look and motioned for her to 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 will be no problems with me here."
"This special kind The environment will be of great help to us in building the Western Territory.
You all should calm down and observe. If you find anything, write it down. I will apply for magic crystal rewards for you when you go 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 ape 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 a bit scary. They live in trees and caves, and they are extremely comfortable.
There should be thousands of them that can be seen alone.
You must know that this kind of monster, which is basically the same size as a human, requires an extremely exaggerated amount of food to survive in certain places.
A rock ape eats at least three to four times as much food as a human of the same size every day, and it may even be five or six times more.
The fields they cultivate here...can guarantee the lives of so many rock monkeys?
Also, where is this place?
Why has no one in the Western Region discovered it before?
Cloya frowned slightly, looked up at the clear sky, magic power rose in his body, and was located here through the position of the constellations.
Then he was surprised to find that this place was a full three hundred kilometers away from the front line, and it was the deepest part of the mountains in the Western Region.
"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 it.
So it spent its magic power to bring all of them here, and even showed its fields and orchards to others, was it really just to show off?
He didn't understand, but there must be a reason why Wulanlong did this. I hope this guy can let himself see something interesting.
Everyone just walked and observed the rock monkeys who were farming.
The farming methods of these rock monkeys are completely different from those in the north, highlighting the carelessness and natural selection.
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 barbaric aspect, as if saying to those crops: If you don’t survive, I will dig you all out and crush them!
Any farming mage from the north would be devastated by this farming method, but the crops here grow very well.
The survival of the fittest through natural selection is intuitively reflected here, and every crop is full of vitality.
What is even more surprising is that in some streams and rivers, the rock monkeys are still breeding some magic fish and slimes.
The captured devil fish and slime will be made into dried fish and dried slime, plus dried fruits and dried meat...it will appear very rich.
This is aquaculture. The rock monkeys actually already know how to raise fish.
The adult rock apes are busy farming, while some of the young rock apes are helping, and some are playing and playing.
The atmosphere in the entire valley is unimaginably harmonious, and even feels like a dream.
“These rock apes...”
“They are so smart.”
“Why are they so smart?”
Druids and bestiality The mages were confused. Although the ape-like monsters were considered to have high IQs, they were not so exaggerated.
Even close to humans.
They continued to move forward with growing doubts, and finally left the Iwazaru village completely.
After walking for about ten minutes, the Rock Ape King led everyone into a cave. There was an extremely fragrant aroma of fruit wine in the cave.
There are streams flowing on both sides of the cave, which are all filled with clear wine. As you continue along the stream, the aroma of the wine becomes stronger and stronger, and finally...
Appears in front of everyone In front of you is a waterfall formed entirely of wine. It is about tens of meters high, flowing with a roar, and the splash is full of fragrant wine.
The alcohol content shouldn't be very high, at least Croya didn't feel dizzy.
‘Monkey wine? ’
After observing, he discovered that as long as the area where the wine flows, the discordant sounds and magic fluctuations in the earth will be smoothed by the aroma of the wine, turning it into land that can be cultivated.
What is going on? Is it the special magic power in these drinks, or is it actually some kind of sacrificial ritual that Croya doesn’t even know about. This is obviously just fruit wine, but it can actually heal the earth. Something strange?
He immediately became interested, walked directly to the waterfall, stretched out his hand to use magic power to get a ball of wine, and felt it carefully.
The result surprised him a little - the magic power structure in this drink was very special. There were at least hundreds of different magic plant fruits flowing through it, but it was extremely harmonious. If I have to say...it's like a furnace, all the magic is wrapped in it, and it's being smelted into a special magic.
While he was observing the drink, the Rock Ape King on the side suddenly squatted down and roared twice at Croya.
That means "come up."
"You want to carry me up." Croya did not hesitate, he was indeed very curious about what was up there.
Of course it wouldn't be troublesome to fly up on his own, but he would be exposed. Now he still wants to continue pretending.
So he climbed directly onto King Iwazaru's back.
Then, this huge giant ape directly grabbed the surrounding vines, climbed extremely lightly, and climbed to the highest point of the waterfall on the smooth rock wall.
The things above were exposed to Croya's eyes——
In a pool, there was a pool about seven or eight meters high and three or four meters wide, made of countless vines and branches. Woven into what looks like a giant hip flask.
Next to me, there was Iwazaru putting some ripe fruits into the wine pot.
There are also some translucent vines growing around, like water pipes, wrapping around the wine pot. The water ripples inside, injecting some special spring water.
The most important thing is...
This wine pot is actually a magic plant.
Its name is "Earth Wine Pot".
Through the observation of the Celestial Spirit Body Engraving Technique, the magic pattern markings inside this wine pot are very complex. There are not only some purifications, fusions, but even magic patterns full of vitality.
If this thing is not a magic plant, but some kind of sophisticated magic device, then Croya might be able to accept it a little bit.
It just so happens that this is a magic plant.
“Did this thing grow naturally, or was it cultivated by someone?” Croya glanced at the Rock Ape King.
This guy is already a level four monster, and his intelligence is actually no worse than that of some adults. In addition, it vaguely senses the powerful aura of Croya.
So it "ooooooohed" for a while sincerely.
The general meaning is that the dragon discovered this place, and then took them together to gradually bring out the role of this mysterious magic plant.
The land irrigated by the wine brewed in this jug seems to become extremely suitable for crop growth. It is because of this that they can live here for so long.
It was obviously uneasy when answering Croya's question. This is the basis for the survival of the Rock Ape clan. It was very worried that Croya would take away the jug.
It even...can't compete with Croya.
In fact, its worries are indeed justified. As a mage, Croya is somewhat similar to the dragon in a sense.
For example, they all like to hoard treasures.
Now there are many treasures accumulated in Croya's treasure room, all of which were developed during this period. Seeing those treasures shining brightly, he will be in a good mood.
For a moment, Croya 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 been completely integrated with the surrounding magical environment. Taking it away forcibly would have a huge impact on it and the Rock Ape Clan.
Is the formation of the earth wine pot related to the rock ape people’s habit of loving wine? How it was formed, and how magic can heal the discord of the earth.
These things were what Croya cared about.
So, he reached out and patted Iwamon's muscles as hard as rocks: "I will arrange for people to trade with you. These drinks are very useful to us.
What do you need? You can tell me.”
In just a few minutes, he had already figured out how to use these drinks 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 require continuous irrigation to achieve it.
If it's the latter, then the number of drinks required is absolutely astronomical. Can Iwazaru's village provide that much?
"Ooooo!" King Iwazaru's eyes lit up, he reached out and grabbed a small bag from Iwazaru next to him, and showed the contents to Croya.
That's...a bag of salt.
To be precise, it was a bag of yellow coarse salt, which seemed to be mineral salt.
“You are short of salt?” Croya wondered.
Ever since I built a few salt ponds at the beach, there has been basically no shortage of salt in the North, not even some magic salt.
“Ouch!” King Rock Ape nodded.
Although they are intelligent monsters and have the help of Mist Dragon, it is very difficult to refine salt.
Salt is actually a necessity for Warcraft.
So it is very eager to get enough salt.
Croya couldn't help but laugh: "Salt is easy to handle. I can arrange for someone to check your body and provide you with salt that will help."
In such a magical world, even salt There are many types and effects.
There are table salt that ordinary people eat, herbal salt that the elves eat, moonlight sea salt that the mermaids love, and radiant crystal salt that the nobles use to show off and maintain health...
Salt As the most basic seasoning, many different types have been developed.
In order to establish a good relationship with these rock apes, Kroya is of course willing to customize some salt for them - of course, once they like the salt, it will be up to Kroya to control it.
How should I put it? This is probably what a monopoly is.
The poor Rock Monkey King felt particularly happy when he heard what Croa said, and he generously let Croa take away the stored drinks on the spot.
At the same time, it also told Croya: As long as there are enough fruits and clear mountain spring water, fruit wine can be brewed continuously, without the need for fermentation and secret storage.
"That's great!"
Both parties were very satisfied with the transaction, and the Mist Dragon never appeared again - it seemed to be afraid of Croya.
...
After the Rock Ape King sent Croya down, the Rock Apes started to move and began to prepare for a banquet——
They took the dried fish fruits they had dried. After drinking wine, they all walked out of the den and set up a bonfire in an open space at the frontline base, inviting these friendly human friends to enjoy it together.
In fact, the only conflict between them and humans is that humans want to transform the Western Region, which will compress their living space, but this is no longer a problem with the help of Croya.
Of course they are not stupid enough to go against humans.
The best way to maintain a relationship is to hold a party and invite human friends to enjoy the happiness with them.
It was getting dark at this time. After a busy day, it was time to rest.
The warriors who are driving the golem to work have been hungry for a long time. How can they hold back after seeing such food?
The food of the rock monkeys actually tastes really good.
Although they do not have enough salt, they do have gifts from the mountains and forests. The juices of flowers and plants, the powder of ores, and even the blood of some monsters are their condiments.
Take the most inconspicuous-looking dried fish as an example.
Chloe saw at least three different 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 spiciness filled his mouth. Rampant.
It felt a bit strange at first, but the more you chewed it, the better it became. Especially the fish bones inside, which have been treated with some special methods, become tough and chewy, like eating beef tendon.
A fish forced Croya to taste the taste of several different kinds of meat.
“It’s really good.”
He slowly chewed the fish meat, looked up at the stars that were gradually twinkling in the sky, and then looked at the rock monkeys in the distance pulling people together to dance with unknown but extremely joyful dances.
The huge bonfire dances with warm light and exudes the aroma of resin.
Cloya watched quietly, his eyes were crystal clear, and he actually felt drowsy. This was something he hadn't felt in a long time.
The energy and physical strength of a sixth-level mage have long been fundamentally different from ordinary people, and sleep may already be a luxury.
But he didn't want to take advantage of this hard-won sleep and fall asleep directly, like a poor social animal looking forward to the holiday.
So he took out his harp and played with the beast whisperers and druids who knew some music nearby and had harmonicas and flutes.
There was still no magic power. He even suppressed his mental power and simply played appropriate tunes in line with the lively atmosphere.
All kinds of music are mixed together, there is no priority, only joyful emotions.
The firelight danced in his eyes, reflecting the figures of the people who were dancing happily with the Iwamons.
The cheerful atmosphere is like a blazing bonfire in the center of the venue, with flames reaching into the sky.
The corners of Croya's mouth raised slightly.
He felt... it was really good.
So he simply joined the dancing queue while playing the harp.
Let go of so many complicated and trivial things, let go of everything, and enjoy the joy of this moment.
Thanks to Mr. Yue Hua for the reward, and thank you all for your monthly tickets and recommended votes~
