End of Chapter 234
Dense holes of various sizes dotted all around, where the small roots were once located, but now they have also been corroded.
And so the dryad died......
It was not early, it was already inconvenient to hurry, and because of a big battle, everyone was also physically and mentally exhausted, so they camped in the same place.
After experiencing the battle together, the two tribes became closer.
In between actions, there was also a lot of conversation.
Under the guidance of the tree man, the elves searched the forest for a kind of plant fruit that could be roasted and eaten, and tasted like bread.
"This is the bread tree's food?" Marlon skewered a piece of cut pulp on a skewer and grilled it on the flame in front of him!
A piece of dry hard fruit the size of a palm is heated by a flame and expands into a soft loaf bread the size of a human head, enough for a family of three to eat.
Tear off a piece and chew it in your mouth, but it tastes good, it really smells like bread!
Ma Long's heart moved, this thing doesn't know what the yield is, if it can be planted in large quantities in the Black Stone Collar......
You must know that he still has a large area of idle land in northern Xinjiang!
"How much can this tree bear?" He raised the bread in his hand and asked the elven prince who was sitting beside him.
"It depends on the size of the tree." Icarus swallowed the bread in his mouth and said, "If it is a decades-old tree, one tree can feed many people, even if it is a new adult, it can also feed three or five people." ”
"Is this easy to plant?" Marlon asked again, "Why didn't you see the seeds?" "He rummaged through the flesh, and it really wasn't.
"No seeds!" The elven prince simply said: "Bread trees cannot be planted with Ben, they can only grow through the roots and grow new saplings, and every bread forest, they all come from the same tree." ”
"Is that so?" Malone was a little disappointed.
But think about it, if it were that easy, the entire human kingdom would have been covered with bread trees long ago.
There is no shortage of legends about bread trees among the people at the bottom of the human race, Malone has never seen a real bread tree before, and has always thought that it is a vision of a better life, but he didn't expect that it is actually a real thing, but there is a thing!
In the past, humans and elves also had frequent communication, and it may have been spread from that time.
If there is a seed, by human nature, it is impossible not to plant.
Maybe you can try cuttings or grafting?
Malone kept this incident in his heart.
If it can be successful, the Blackstone Collar will have another pillar industry!
It was getting dark, and after a big battle, everyone was also tired, so they went to bed early to rest.
Marlon returned to his tent, but he did not sleep.
He was thinking back to the course of today's battle, the gains and losses, including the battle with the ogre a few days ago.
Especially the last burning ogre, he lacks the means to deal with a large-sized and non-vital enemy, and if the other party has a strong resilience, it will be even more constrained, this is a problem to be solved!
Thinking that in the face of a much stronger dragon at the beginning, Ma Long was not so passive, and at that time his strength was even more different than now!
But don't be in a hurry, there are too few things like the dryad, as long as you don't drill into the Black Forest, it is impossible to encounter it under normal circumstances.
In fact, this matter is not considered a weakness of Ma Long, the size of human beings is not dominant, and it is normal to be at a disadvantage in the face of large-sized enemies.
Not only humans, but also elves.
Looking at the appearance of the Treant and Icarus and the others, it was obviously not the first time to deal with such a thing as a dryad, but there was still no effective means to show it.
There is no need to worry, upgrade step by step, it will solve the problem.
After packing up his somewhat restless mood, Ma Long opened his backpack and prepared to see today's harvest.
Not to mention the gold coins, a whole bunch.
Then there is a seed, which is explained on the panel as "Ginkgo Biloba Dryad's Seed", which will grow into an obedient Dryad.
The dryad can improve the local environment, improve soil fertility, facilitate planting, and defend against foreign enemies, but the real thing is obedience.
Marlon's idea of transplanting bread trees adds another chip!
We can't wait, the sooner the better, and the sooner we do it, the sooner we will produce results.
Tomorrow I will send a message home for the salad to get ready.
Determined, Malone looked at the last thing, which was a stack of books.
There are ten "Books of Life" that can increase vitality.
"Good thing, the longevity of the parents is solved for the time being." Malone let out a sigh.
Seeing his family gradually aging, wrinkles creeping up his cheeks, and his hair becoming gray, but he had no choice, a sour feeling often filled his heart, bringing him the pressure of a cushion.
Now that there is the Book of Life, although it cannot solve the problem once and for all, it is not so urgent.
Rubbing the book in his hand with his hand, Malone carefully put it back into the backpack space, although he knew that there would be no problem, he still separated a corner to place it.
It's about the life of his parents, and he can't be careless!
With a satisfied exhale, Malone closed his eyes and rested peacefully.
Put down a boulder in your heart, this night's dream is extraordinarily fragrant!
The next day, before leaving, Malone made a special trip to let the elf take him to see the breadforest.
It is dozens of meters high, its size is no worse than that of the dryad, and most of the small ones are adults, with pieces of "bread" hanging on them!
All you need to do is cut it into slices and grill it over a fire to fill your stomach.
This is a game-changer for an agrarian society!
Bidding farewell to the tree people, the group continued on their way.
When I got to the shore, I rode a crocodile down the river.
With the experience of fighting together, the elves also let go a little.
Some of them sit directly on the back of the crocodile, stretch their white calves into the water, and make a splash.
Seeing that the human knights swallowed their spittle, they didn't care, but laughed coquettishly, proud of their charm!
It seemed that the atmosphere of the elves was more open, and Icarus didn't mean to stop, but asked Marlon, "Can you tell me what you threw at the end?" It's the one that killed the dryad. ”
"Huh?" Ma Long was stunned, and he didn't know how to explain it.
"If it's inconvenient, forget it, I'm not trying to get into your secrets." Icarus looked at Ma Long's hesitant appearance, and said with a shy face: "The dryads are very harmful to the Black Forest, but ordinary elves have never had any means to restrain them, and there have been many casualties every time they are dispatched.
"Thank you this time, or we'll all be there!"
"Actually, there's nothing to keep secret!" Ma Long thought about how to say better, "That thing should be a poisonous mist spewed out by a two-headed ogre, I have some special means and collected some, but this process is almost impossible to replicate, and I don't know exactly how to do it." ”
"Thank you!" The elven prince saluted Marlon and said, "As long as you know what it is, it will be easy to do, the two-headed ogre is easier to deal with than the dryad after all!" In the future, our people's losses will be much less, I really don't know how to thank you! ”
