Chapter 1159 The Forest Queen’s Breath of Life
The Goliaths originally had beliefs, and the racial god they believed in, Chief Kavachi, was actually one of the many aspects of the current acting chief god of the giant pantheon, the Lord of Storms, Sitromauz.
Although the giants in Faerûn began to decline after Annan, the former chief god of the giant pantheon and the father of giants, chose to self-exile, and the activity and influence of the giant pantheon began to weaken significantly, it does not mean that they do not exist.
Gavin doesn't have much connection with the giant pantheon, but he is inextricably linked to Mother Earth.
He originally wanted to wait until the plan was implemented to a certain extent, and then find ways to obtain permission from the mother of the earth, Shantia.
Unexpectedly, the change was faster than planned. Before Gavin could take action, he had an encounter with Mother Earth again, and the advantage was in his favor.
Mother Earth has not yet responded, but Melikai's beautiful eyes widened and she looked at Gavin in disbelief and said: "Do you really dare to think about it?
But I have to say that there is great feasibility in this.
The earth itself has a violent side, which is consistent with the violent priesthood owned by Mr. Blue Bear.
If it can be operated really well, mother will get a capable person to help her deal with various disasters hidden in the earth.
You can then concentrate on shifting the focus of your priesthood to agriculture and tending the growth of all things.
Just doing this, the only thing to consider is the attitude of the gods of the giant pantheon. Will they allow the mother to extend their faith to their race? ”
Gavin said with confidence: "The giant pantheon is a racial pantheon. Most of the pantheon is composed of the children of Annan, the father of the giants, and his two wives, who in turn gave birth to their own races of giants.< br>
For them, the belief from the race is far more important than the development and growth of the race.
Beliefs can change, but their ethnic origins and their ancestors will not change.
Of course, out of respect for them, it's best to say hello to them.
As long as Ms. Dadi is willing to come forward, I believe they will be very willing to sell this front.
As long as they are willing to facilitate this, I will ensure that the Goliaths in my territory will thrive and the population will double several times within ten years. ”
He took the opportunity to further improve the God-casting plan, taking all aspects into consideration.
Mother Earth is not only the earth goddess of their humans, but also the giants'. Even if they don't believe in her, they must give her enough respect.
Mother Earth smiled and said, "I believe no one will refuse this kind of thing that benefits everyone. As long as you can convince the father of battle, I will visit Stromauz."
"This matter does not have to wait until later, it can be resolved now." Gavin directly contacted the violent blue bear, summoned it, and asked it to contact the father of battle Uthgar again.
The next second, Uthgar responded to the call. After knowing the cause and effect, he replied extremely generously: "It is his greatest honor to be used by the Great Mother. From today on, the blue bear will be your mount and guard. I'll leave it to you."
The Father of Battle showed his wisdom at this moment and neatly handed over the dominance of the violent blue bear.
He has never lacked high-level totems. One more Blue Bear is not enough, and one less than him is not enough.
But if he is used as a bridge to connect with the Mother of the Earth, another powerful divine power, then his worth will be greatly increased.
There is one less divine servant, but one more loyal and reliable divine ally.
Mother Earth accepted it with peace of mind, turned to Gavin and said: "Since this matter started because of you, then I will leave it to you to operate with full authority."
"Please rest assured, madam, I will definitely not disappoint your expectations." Gavin said with a toothy smile and full of confidence.
Now that the gods have agreed, he will definitely be able to play the rest and maximize his benefits.
"Since you have become my mount and guardian, I have to express my gratitude. I just want to use the power of this earth stone." Mother Earth's eyes turned to the elemental energy where the Flame Dragon Mother was imprisoned. The flames on the device began to beat wildly, as if they would turn to the violent blue bear in the next second.
"Wait...wait...wait..." Gavin stopped hurriedly, "Madam, the time is not right. Doing this now is too wasteful. When I recruit as many Goliaths as possible, you Give your blessing to Blue Bear Pavilion again
Doing this can not only maximize your strength, but also help Mr. Lanxiong accumulate preliminary faith to facilitate faster development in the future. ”
Hearing this, Mother Earth took back the divine power that was about to be injected out, and exclaimed sincerely: "You have so many evil ideas. When you compare them like this, I find that my life was in vain." , countless great opportunities were wasted
Tempus is lucky and has raised a good daughter. He picked up this great treasure like you for free, but you are too overqualified to be in the war god system. ”
There is unconcealable envy in his words. Even for the gods, talents are hard to find, especially talents who can help them promote their faith, which are even more precious.
What Gavin is doing now is no longer as simple as helping them promote their faith, but helping them integrate resources and promote the development direction of their clergy. That is even rarer and unheard of.
Gavin boldly revealed his true vision: "I never think that the gods exist independently, nor are they blindly competing with each other.
If intelligent life wants to thrive, it cannot do without the support of the land's output. The war god system does not necessarily exist to start a war, but can also defend homeland and protect peace.
When a territory, a country, or even a world enjoys long-term peace and stability, it will inevitably lead to a surge in population.
When the population of the entire world increases by dozens or even dozens of times, even if the faith is divided equally, the divine power you will obtain will probably far exceed what it is now. ”
The incarnations of the gods present couldn't help but look at each other. This concept of developing sermons could not be said to be deafening to them, but it was also refreshing to them. They could not deny the feasibility of this new concept.
Once you can do it well, you can really break out of the existing competition circle and exchange minimal conflict for maximum benefits.
Mother Earth said calmly: "What you said is indeed a grand plan, but there is a fatal problem in this matter.
This plan requires an unswerving executor who will not change his original intention no matter what temptations he faces, and will continue to develop and implement it unswervingly.
It is easy to stick to something for a period of time, but it is difficult to stick to it for a lifetime.
Often, as you go along, you will go against your original intention and embark on a completely opposite path. ”
As one of the oldest gods in Faerûn, Shantia has never seen any big storms or heroes. There are many precedents for heroes to become tyrants.
Not easily swayed by Gavin's grand development plan.
The more ambitious the plan, the greater the obstacles it faces.
"Thank you for the reminder, madam, but I am willing to try my best." Gavin did not expect them to stand firmly on his side as soon as they started.
Empty talk is useless.
As long as they see the actual benefits and hope, they will naturally stand on his side, and he has full confidence in this.
"I will leave this stone of earth to you to protect. I will leave a spiritual message here. When you are ready, you can call me through it."
The earth stone has been integrated with the earth veins as a god-level elemental energy concentrator. It has now been given its own exclusive name by the Mother of the Earth.
With the imprisonment of the Flame Dragon Mother, the properties of this earth stone have undergone new changes. Not only have new abilities been added, but the two original abilities have also been greatly strengthened.
The area covered by the stable earth has expanded to two hundred kilometers beyond the Marching Mountains, which is enough to cover most of Tethyr and Calimshan, so that there are no worries about volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.
The gold that can be extracted every day has also increased sharply to 200 kilograms per day, and the output has doubled.
The newly added special ability is called summoning the flaming flying dragon. This ability can directly summon a varying number of flaming flying dragons from above for your own use. The range of activity is the area covered by the stable earth.
"I will make good use of it." Gavin took the opportunity to say, "There is one more thing that needs to be discussed with the lady. The March Mountain Range has been so severely damaged, which is both a disaster and an opportunity. I want to take the opportunity to adjust the industrial layout here. .
A large number of golden apple trees are introduced into the mountains. They like an environment with a large temperature difference between day and night, and the apples they produce taste better. ”
To say that we are adjusting the industrial layout is actually to extend our hands into the marching mountains.
The fire is merciless, and it is not only the good races that are affected by the disaster in the moving mountains, but the evil races are also treated equally.
After the chaos, it is the perfect time for a power reshuffle.
Gavin will never allow this place to become a source of evil again. His homeland, Tethyr, has suffered from the evil creatures that breed here. It was the goblins who poured out of here in the first place and forced them to abandon Nott Castle.
The easiest way to completely govern a place is to let it have its own residents and let them fight voluntarily to defend their homeland. Goliaths were his chosen mountain dwellers.
There is nothing to say about the combat capability of this powerful race, but it has a fatal flaw, that is, the population is too small and the reproduction rate is slow.
Unlike the immortal species of elves and dwarves, the slow reproduction rate of Goliaths is not determined by biology, but by the living environment and living materials.
Once the latter is changed, their population will inevitably grow exponentially.
He is now trying to change the Goliath people's life structure, using a model of mountain grazing + mountain cash crop cultivation.
At that time, more roads into the mountains will be opened in the direction of Tessel, so that both sides can communicate with each other. Not only will the Goliaths be able to thrive in the traveling mountains, but the two river basins of the Tessel Kingdom will once again become the center of human life. Fertile soil.
Due to frequent attacks by the evil races in the Marching Mountains, the area has been largely abandoned, including Fort Nott, which has not yet been recovered.
"You should not negotiate with me on this issue." Mother Earth's gaze turned to the forest goddess Melikai, "The forest is her responsibility, and the apple tree is also a tree."
The last words were obviously meant for the forest goddess Melikai.
The Forest Goddess smiled and said: "You have reminded me that the Golden Apple Orchard that you have implemented on a large scale in the past year has yielded a bumper harvest, especially in the Giant Valley. The Golden Apple Orchard is not only widely praised by intelligent life, but also the two forests. The creatures inside are also singing your praises, and they are enjoying the joy of the harvest together
The seeds of golden apples are being taken to all parts of the world. I plan to let people plant more in the forest glades to make the forest more lush and lively and support more creatures. ”
"Now that you have felt the benefits, you can communicate more in the future." Mother Earth waved her hand, and an earthy yellow light bloomed.
An apple seed fell to the ground, took root and sprouted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon grew into a huge apple tree.
A tall figure walked out from inside. She was tall and beautiful like a yaling, but had long white hair and light gray skin like a drow. She exuded a faint golden light and had a strong apple fragrance.
Stelina, Lord of the Golden Apple Orchard and God of Apple Trees.
Strictly speaking, she is the first demigod created by Gavin.
Sterina has obviously never seen such a grand scene - it can be called a gathering of gods at this moment.
In addition to Mother Earth, Forest Lady, and Gavin, there were five demigods watching and watching from the outside. After the heavy rain surrounded them and the flaming dragons and fire slag clusters were completely wiped out, the demigods responsible for the outside work also rushed in one after another. Coming.
"I've met these two ladies, and I've met your Excellency." Stelina gathered her thoughts and saluted the three of them respectively.
"Do you need me to introduce each other to you?" Gavin asked proactively.
"No need." Melikai and Stelina replied at the same time.
The forest goddess took the initiative and said: "Please use Ms. Sterina's power to condense an apple seed for me, and then cooperate with me to act together."
"Okay." Although Stelina didn't know what was going on, she still did as she was told.
Without any movement at all, an apple seed flashing with a faint magical aura appeared in her hand.
Melikai stretched out her hand, and the green light gathered together, condensing into a dark green composite longbow out of thin air. The entire longbow was simple and unpretentious, made entirely of forest materials, and exuded a rich and indestructible life force.
After Meikali took the apple seeds, emerald green light immediately bloomed in her hands.
A magical scene appeared.
The apple seed immediately split into two, two into four, four into eight... entering a terrifying state of division.
In just a few dozen seconds, a long arrow made of apple seeds formed in Melikai's hand.
This long arrow was wrapped in rich life force, condensing and not dispersing.
Both the forest lady and the long bow and arrows in her hands were enlarging in proportion simultaneously, and soon entered the state of the 100-meter godhead again.
Concentrate your mind, draw your bow, look at the sky, and shoot out an arrow.
When the apple seed arrow was released, its size had been enlarged to several meters thick and fifty or sixty meters long. During the flight, it was still splitting and deriving.
Therefore, this long arrow not only did not get smaller in sight, but instead kept getting bigger.
When it flew thousands of meters into the sky, this unique apple seed arrow exploded. The apple seeds, which could no longer be counted, began to be thrown in all directions, covering an area that was beyond imagination. It was not just Most of the marching mountains are that simple.
A few years later, countless golden apple tree saplings also grew around the Lake of Steam, which was not a surprising thing.
These apple seeds are now nearly 10,000 meters high in the air - the height of the Serenagde peak + the height of Melikae. The wind will carry them far and wide.
After the arrow was shot, the incarnation of Mielikki shrank rapidly like a deflated balloon.
It shrinks at the same rate as the Apple Seed Arrow grows in size.
This is not a coincidence, but a necessity.
The split derivatives of these apple seeds were spawned by her divine power, and the consumption was not ordinary.
The previous battle with the Flame Dragon Mother cost less than one percent of what it is now.
"Bow of the Breath of Life! Breath of Life!" Mother Earth said with a smile, "Since you use an ability that can only be used once a year, I can't be too stingy, blessings from the earth!"
As she spoke, she had submerged into the earth again, and the entire marching mountains began to tremble slightly again.
It was only extremely slight. If Gavin and the others weren't at the source of the tremor, they wouldn't even be able to notice it completely.
For those ordinary creatures, this tremor has no effect.
But it is very useful for those apple seeds falling from the sky.
The moment they landed, it was as if an invisible hand caught them.
Slightly adjust their landing position to avoid rocks that are not suitable for rooting and send them to the surrounding areas that are most suitable for them to take root and grow.
The surrounding soil cracked, and the ashes from the mountain fires gathered automatically. Then those apple seeds were put into it. The soil gathered together, the depth was not deep, not shallow, just right, and the heavy rain that had not stopped covered it.
The whole process is like having a hard-working farmer, no, a kind mother, caring for them tenderly like her own children.
This situation is not limited to one or two places, but is the case throughout the entire mountain range.
Turn the soil, fertilize and water.
This is no longer simply primitive farming, but an out-and-out intensive farming.
Next spring, you can imagine how the mountains and plains of the Marching Mountains will be covered with golden apple tree saplings.
Mother Earth used her actual actions to explain why she is revered as the shaper of all things.
This is the perfect use of the two priesthoods of earth and agriculture.
"Thank you two ladies for your support. I will never let you down. I will definitely protect your miracle and turn this place into a mountain of apples."
Stelina's whole body was enveloped in a huge surprise, because this behavior of sowing apple seeds on a large area is closely related to it.
The moment countless apple seeds were planted, a rich green light suddenly bloomed on her body, and her size was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Godhead and Dharma.
This is a phenomenon that will inevitably occur in the process of divine power promotion, and represents the reshaping and transformation of the body by divine power.
Her divine form finally reached the peak of giantness, only half a step away from becoming super giant.
