Chapter 17: Building a Camp
Nine thousand years ago, the vegetation in the western wilderness was still very good. Near the Elwyn Forest there is a large area of temperate broad-leaved forest, and there is a considerable area of shrub next to it. The part near the coastline is a large area of grassland, and the founding of Stormwind City is based on, and this land is nurtured.
Once you've landed on the coast, the first thing to do is build a camp. It is a zhuci problem to have shelter to explore elsewhere.
Building materials can be found locally, and the Elwyn Forest has an abundance of wood. You can also look for clay-fired bricks in the surrounding area, there is no way to find stone nearby, compared to the sturdiness and convenience of bricks, you can also set your own size and shape. As for the problem of magic power, since Moon Shadow dared to come to this continent, she naturally thought of a solution.
First of all, you have to find a small lake or dig a well directly, the diluted spring water of the Well of Eternity can be made into a moon well, although it can't be compared to the Well of Eternity World Tree, but drinking the spring water of the Moon Well on time can keep the elves alive as well as within the energy range of the World Tree. Of course, there must be a sacrifice to bless all this, and the water of the well of eternity that has been directly diluted is also the water of the well of eternity. If you don't use the blessing of the moon god to alleviate that power, ordinary people will definitely die of madness tormented by the power of the well water after taking a sip.
Therefore, the establishment of this shelter must first find a small lake or a puddle, as long as it is living water. There is only one place in the Western Wilderness that meets this requirement, and that is the location between Mooncreek Town and Sentinel Ridge. As far back as I can remember, there was a small lake there. This is only the first step in making this small lake of the moon god. Then a small town hall was built by the lake, and a house for the sailors was built.
said quickly, but it took half a year to do all this. This is a new problem, as the town is facing a severe food shortage because food was not previously considered. Moreover, winter is approaching and unlike the holy mountain of Hyjal, which is sheltered by the World Tree in the early spring of the four seasons, winter clothing is also a more serious problem.
Although some leather was collected by hunting, there was a lack of craftsmen who made it. Untreated leather is so hard that it cannot be used directly to make clothes for wearing. In an emergency, Moon Shadow had no choice but to open the portal and bring in a batch of supplies from Cabreas, so it was very difficult to force the long-distance portal across the sea to open without setting up the corresponding facilities. Even the Moon Shadow can't be turned on for a long time, after all, he has become a demigod and comprehended the rules of thunder and lightning. Although he has the spatial rune given to him by Nozdom, his achievements in space are not to the level of a demigod.
Although Cabrazie's rescue has solved the urgent need, it is a little embarrassing to worry about things while guarding this rich land. Darth Rema's suggestion to put the town on hold for now. Priority is given to starting the land preparation, plus we can also hunt and gather. When we have saved enough in kind in the coming year, we can catch fish in the sea, and then we can deploy a large number of immigrants to come over. It will be much faster to build other facilities.
Moon Shadow thought for a moment, and quickly agreed to the proposal. The workers began to reclaim a large amount of land, and a small team of Illidan was sent to explore the Elwyn Forest, accumulating supplies by hunting. Just as you can't put a basket at what time it is, and a lot of mushrooms will definitely grow in the forest when the humidity is getting worse in winter, Moon Shadow also assigned a druid to bring a few people with Illidan to collect some edible materials with him. A small wharf was built at the place where it was disembarked, and about a dozen workers were used as fishermen, and the warship was also used as a fishing boat. In this way, it can support the consumption of food, after all, the supplies cannot be completely supplied by Cabrease, at least to ensure self-sufficiency first.
Everything went well, and hunting and gathering were originally the way elves were produced. Over the course of the winter, they had only asked Cabraith once for supplies. Of course, when spring comes, we cannot relax, and we cannot send all our manpower to agriculture, and we must maintain the original industry first. After all, it takes at least three or four months from sowing to harvest, and food is still consumed during this period.
Moon Shadow specially took out some crop seeds from the space, which he had improved. The yield is much higher than that of ordinary varieties. Mainly wheat and pumpkin, both of which can be used as staple foods. I also got the seeds of some fruit trees, but of course tropical fruits, which belong to the temperate climate. So most of the planting is apples and pears, but there are also some walnuts and olives. Grapes are also essential, both for food and winemaking.
Of course, domestic animals also need to be raised, and there are some wild boars in the western wilderness. After domestication, it can be used as meat to supplement the necessary animal protein.
I have to say that the druids are definitely the best candidates as farmers, and the plants they take care of are growing happily one by one. There are no pests or diseases, and thanks to them, the fruit trees are growing fast. If it takes more than three years to bear fruit, it is estimated that the harvest will be available next year.
In the fall, Moon Shadow couldn't help but be happy, and the huge warehouse was full of grain. The cellar was also full of pumpkins, and it would be absolutely fine to see that three or four thousand people would eat it for two years.
After harvesting the crops, Moon Shadow recalls the hunters and gatherers. With the addition of idle peasants, all buildings had to be built as soon as possible.
The first thing to do is to build a temple, and most of the elves believe in Elune, except for the upper elves, who are relatively weak. Without such a place, there will be a lot of people who are dissatisfied. It wasn't a temple the size of Cabrasses, but it had to be a building that could accommodate hundreds of people.
Of course, it is more urgent to build some houses for living. In this way, he was able to move the population back and forth in Cabreth. And there is no way to build in winter, which is also something to consider. Synthesized, Moon Shadow prepares to build houses for living in the prefecture, and then starts building temples when immigrants arrive.
Moon Shadow is starting to feel a little nostalgic for the time when she was built with magic, supported by the energy of the Well of Eternity. It was like an efficient machine, and it only took two or three years to build the Moon Studios. But magic can't be abused, and he can't break the laws he has made. There is also a lack of magical energy to support it.
But with normal construction methods, everything is already very fast. Neat houses, towering town halls, looking neat and comfortable. Of course, for elves, the house must not only be comfortable, but also beautiful. The bad taste of the elves makes them very elaborate even when they build a toilet, especially in this regard. In one year, a small town with the character of Cadore was born in the Wild West.
After a new plan was made, everything started to go according to plan, and it went very smoothly. At the beginning of the spring of the third year, Moon Shadow opened the portal and received a group of about 2,000 immigrants. Most of them are farmers who used to be in charge of agricultural production in Gray Valley, but the land in Gray Valley is not very suitable for farming. It is also important to increase the area under cultivation at the cost of deforestation. This method of slash-and-burn farming is too damaging to nature. A small amount of words is reasonable, but a large number of crops are planted in the Gray Valley, not to mention that the Dryad Sisters, who have a good relationship with the Guardian of the Forest, will definitely hit his palace.
In one case, he had also learned the Druid Way with Cenarius, although the results were not very good. However, he still loves nature very much, not to mention that he has studied various theories in his previous life, although he is not an environmentalist, but he also knows the importance of sustainability and the lungs of the planet for a world.
A planet must have plants before animals, and plants act as producers that convert sunlight into energy and store it in their bodies. In fact, all animals belong to predators, and it makes no difference whether they are bald and chanting scriptures or holding books and crossings. The continuation and existence of life requires energy support, and plants absorb the energy of sunlight, but animals obviously do not have this ability. So to survive you can only plunder, this is a law of nature.
The meaning of protecting the environment is not to have rare animals or plants, but to protect an environment that allows us to survive. Humans may not feel much for decades, but elves live a long life. For the vicissitudes of the sea into mulberry fields, the primeval forest into barren land, these various changes can be seen in a lifetime. So they understand that humans will never understand.
Carvin's is very serious, and there is some rampage in front of him that is pulling in the direction of the outline. Please continue to collect and recommend thank you
