Chapter 5 5. Planting Sunflowers
After landing, the magic crystal grew roots like a magic plant, extending out from the inside of the radiant magic crystal, and then spreading to all sides.
The crystal blue light cannot be covered up even by the sun.
That is the halo of magic.
They soon and evenly covered the open space of about thirty square meters. They were intertwined and entwined. They were obviously root-shaped, but they grew very regularly.
Like the ridges of reclaimed land.
Kloya, who had been watching them, was slightly relieved when he saw this, "Three pieces should be enough for the time being..."
This spell is necessary for mages to farm in barren land. Prepared spells, because those lands will more or less have insufficient magic power, which is very detrimental to the growth of magic plants.
With this spell, the "magic roots" spread out by the magic crystal can provide magic power for the magic plant, ensuring that there is enough magic power for the magic plant to grow.
At the same time, this is only the first step of the magic field method.
The magic power emanating from the magic crystal will gradually transform the soil. After the magic power is completely infiltrated into the soil, the second step of modification can begin.
For example, adding fire potion and frost potion are special potions that transform the magical composition of the soil, making them more suitable for the corresponding magic plants.
Land restrictions are not a restriction for mages. Qualified mages can farm and explore resources anywhere.
Butler Rob watched Croya cast a spell, and looked at the cheerful smile on the latter's face, and suddenly felt that it might not be a bad idea to stay away from the royal capital.
At least I, the master, can do whatever I want.
While the knights and Bartos were busy at this moment, he asked: "Master, what are you going to do with those servants?"
"Repatriate them all, by Luo "Bob, you pick a new batch."
Rob didn't have much surprise. When he saw Croya not looking at the servants just now, he knew that Croya definitely didn't look at them. superior.
In fact, he doesn’t like it either.
Compared to the servants trained by the Royal Capital Mage Association and the Imperial Household Agency, these servants are simply unacceptable.
"Don't worry, I will do my best to train a group of suitable servants." Rob nodded.
"Then I'll leave it to you... We just came here and don't know much about the environment yet. The specific situation requires you to pay attention to it." Croya smiled and continued:
"The lord has an army to maintain the security of the territory. That army must be firmly controlled. Let Joshua and Art go."
"Let's do this, Rob. You can choose the right one and let their children come to the castle to be mage apprentices and knight apprentices.
Let Chris and Norman handle this."
This is his early decision. Just think of a good way to deal with it.
Anyway, it’s up to him to decide what to learn in the castle. It’s normal to work for more than ten years before learning spells. It’s also normal to learn whatever you want.
This is completely his word.
In the future, he will need to monitor the status and data of various magic plants at all times when farming. He cannot do everything.
At this time, we need some obedient and well-behaved students.
Raising them from a young age to ensure loyalty and to control their parents who are soldiers - not to mention other things, at least their physical fitness should be obviously different from others.
After all, the quality of life is different depending on the amount of money earned, and the physical constitution is naturally different.
When the time comes, those with some talent can help him farm the land. Those without talent but with good physical fitness can become knight apprentices. If not, they can work as servants and work as coolies.
To be honest, it wouldn't be like this if he didn't have too few people. But there is no other way. Now we can only quickly grasp and control it through this method.
This is a clear conspiracy, and any smart person can see it, but who can refuse the mages and knights from the royal capital?
Not to mention he is already a lord.
Farm servants on the territory are born to surrender and work for him.
If there are really those stubborn people, then they can only bother the four knights to come to greet them one by one.
I believe they will make a "rational" choice. Rob, the butler, looked at his master with a surprised look on his face. He felt that it was because of this exile that his master had suddenly enlightened, and he was immediately very pleased.
"Don't worry, just leave it to me!"
He made a promise.
“Leave it to Rob, I’m most at ease.”
He didn’t say anything else about other things, such as surveying the island, census, etc... Rob had planned it early in the morning Okay.
Kloya was very satisfied with having such a reliable butler.
……
Time passed quickly.
Behind each of the knights was a dark-skinned man carrying a large basket.
It is filled with sandy loam soil, which is also one of the most suitable soils for the growth of sunflowers.
"Sir, these people said they were good at growing crops, so I brought them here." Rob's son Joshua said respectfully.
"Okay, you guys do a good job, and I will reward you if you do a good job."
Cloya pointed to the ground covered by magic roots and said: "Cover the soil evenly on the roots, and the roots are covered with soil. There should be enough space between the piles..."
Magic plants are more troublesome than ordinary crops, but they are also easier to grow.
As long as it has enough magic power and nutrients, it can grow safely, and it will basically not get worms or get sick - but if it gets worms or gets sick, it will be a huge trouble.
These men are really good at farming, and they are really careful. They quickly spread the soil evenly and made the ridges according to the distribution of magic roots.
The magic roots are covered under the soil, which not only releases magic power, but also kills insect eggs and other things hidden inside.
"Yes, your reward, let's go!"
Seeing this, Croya, who was satisfied, rewarded each of them with a copper coin without hesitation, and then ordered them to retreat.
Of course these serfs were overjoyed. You must know that serving as a soldier in the castle only cost thirty copper coins a month, and they actually got a copper coin after just doing it casually.
What a great joy.
Several people couldn't suppress the joy in their hearts and walked out, deciding to publicize the generosity and generosity of the new lord.
Of course Croya doesn't care what they are thinking.
He had already taken out the crystal bottle and carefully planted the sunflower seeds that he had added the "Sun Ray" imprint with his own hands.
When the twelve precious seeds were planted, his heart, which had been excited since he discovered the golden finger, finally calmed down.
Then you just need to wait patiently for it to grow up.
Magic plants need to be planted. Poseidon water wheat and olive trees must also be planted in a place. We also need to see if there are any hidden magic plants here that have not been discovered.
Of course, you must not fall behind in your own studies.
The source of the mage's transcendent status comes from a variety of knowledge and spells. Strength is paramount and cannot be dealt with casually.
'There are quite a lot of things...'
Just as he was staring at the ground and thinking, Joshua suddenly mustered up the courage to take out the two pieces he had just picked with his companions. A big coconut.
"Sir, these are the coconuts we picked. Do you want to eat some to fill your stomach?"
Croya came back to his senses. He looked at the two huge coconuts and suddenly felt I was really thirsty and hungry.
He smiled and said: "Okay, tell the cook to cook. I want to try if there is anything delicious on Hanjiao Island."
As he said that, he stopped by He walked down the steps with brisk steps.
