Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 176 - 171: Agriculture and Animal Husbandry

Chapter 176: Chapter 171: Agriculture and Animal Husbandry

The core area of the Elf Forest was about four kilometers from the Chosen City.

There used to be a grove of high-quality timber here, perfect for construction material. The trees grew straight, had good texture, and emitted a faint fragrance that calmed the mind.

When completing the daily task of collecting timber, players who submitted this kind of wood would receive additional experience points and contribution from Alice.

Therefore, after the location was shared by those who discovered it on the official strategy forum, many players came here to gather timber.

And over time, the players stripped the place bare…

Even on the day Eve revived, when everything was growing and many saplings sprouted, the second test players dug them all up to be used as roadside trees in Chosen City…

However, although the trees were gone, there was now a large open space. Since it had been a forest, the soil was extremely fertile, and the players chose it as an experimental field for crop cultivation.

Elves were magical creatures by nature and were among the wise species of Druids.

*Perhaps for ordinary humans, crop cultivation was a long and unpredictable process, but for players with nature magic, everything could be accelerated.*

After obtaining some crop seeds from a captured human caravan, Little Xian Miao handed them over to the living guild players, allowing them to take on related side quests and attempt cultivation.

The players received a total of three types of seeds, which, after identification, turned out to be Mania Plain Wheat, Mania Rapid Rice, and Aries Potato.

Plain Wheat and Rapid Rice were primary agricultural products in human society within the Segis World, each with a long cultivation history.

The smuggled seeds, identified by Elf Nightingale who once lived in human society, were thought to possibly be the latest high-quality crop varieties recently bred and widely discussed in human society by the official Magic Association of the Holy Mania Empire!

The third type, Aries Potato. was a bit like potatoes on Blue Star, but gray in color and a bit sweeter.

It was said to be an introduced crop from another plane, brought into human society a thousand years ago when the plane channel was still open by legendary mage Aries of the Aries Kingdom.

Since this crop had a high yield, it quickly became widely cultivated in human society and was well-received by the common folk.

However, unlike potatoes, Aries Potato had to rely on seeds for reproduction.

The potato seeds acquired by the players were also recognized by Nightingale and thought to be improved varieties from the Ariel Kingdom!

*Thinking about it, if they were not high-quality seeds, how could they have attracted the attention of the Sorren Caravan for smuggling?*

*After all, the profit from magic items was much higher, wasn’t smuggling magic items more worthwhile?*

*Only such precious high-quality varieties would catch the eye of smugglers.*

Of course, these things were now available to the players at a bargain.

*In the game, Tianchao players were quite interested in growing vegetables.*

Besides, although the Elf Forest was rich in resources, it was mostly fruits and vegetables, lacking staple foods.

*For Tianchao people, the most uncomfortable thing was not having staple food to eat.*

So, players had high expectations for these seeds.

Moreover, unlike reality, magic existed here. The land in the Elf Forest was extremely fertile, and the air was rich in magic power, allowing for plant growth to be significantly accelerated without prolonged waiting.

In just a few days, the players saw results…

*In fact, the outcome was even better than what the players had imagined!*

Now… the land had turned into farmland, growing Plain Wheat, Rapid Rice, and Potatoes.

Thanks to the effects of magic, the players also brought in Black Dragon Mairrel’s manure, and with the support of the silver-level Druid, Oak Guardian Berserker, the crops seemed to have undergone some kind of mutation…

They grew sturdier, the fruit was plumper, and even the potatoes seemed to sprout more tuberous roots…

*In the players’ experiments, they found that with various enhancements, the growth speed of these crops could be elevated to a terrifying level!*

The quickest Rapid Rice matured in three days, while the slowest Plain Wheat took just a week…

You had to know, in human society, even the fastest growing Rapid Rice took at least four months to mature!

Of course, this was because ordinary humans couldn’t enjoy the magical enhancements, nor did they have the fertile land of the Elf Forest and the abundant magic power, not to mention the dragon manure…

Not to mention anything else, due to the resurgence of the World Tree, the magic level in the core area of the Elf Forest had long surpassed that of the outside world!

*Under these conditions, anything planted grew well and grew fast.*

Now, the farmland was already on the second or third batch of crops, with players selecting better seeds after harvesting the first batch.

After harvesting the crops, identified by Great Druid Oak Guardian Berserker, perhaps due to the abundant magic of the Elf Forest and the use of dragon manure by the players, these crops were subtly surpassing the realm of ordinary crops, having a hint of magical plant characteristics…*

After consuming these crops, they could even aid in the absorption of magic power!

Although the effect was weak, it was still quite remarkable.
