"Why would you worry about that?" I was a little surprised, "Both we and Santas have completely broken with the original race, do we still care?" ”

Leo's tone was a little serious: "I'm afraid you haven't calmed down yet, think about it, Santas and the three clans are not hostile, at least not completely hostile, but in a delicate balance, if it is broken because of a high-level demonic beast, the situation will be completely different from the Three Rivers Mountain Range." ”

"It's you who makes the decision, and I'll take ......the result," I said, "of course, I'm not complaining, but I want to hear from you." ”

Leo said, "Actually, it won't have much impact in the near future, but once we take control of the Mage Tower, it will be a factor to consider." ”

"Isn't it okay to let the demonized monitor lizard keep a low profile?" I say.

"With a human personality, it's easier to be suspicious when you see it behaving abnormally," Leo said, "So, we need to make some arrangements here so that the demonized monitor lizard is not suspicious, and even, it can expand its power appropriately." ”

I realized: "It's not possible, we still have to help it ......"

"It's also an investment," Leo said, "and rest assured that the return in the future is a resource for the whole swamp." ”

"Do you want to go now?" I say.

"Don't worry, go to the elves," said Leo, "and I'm afraid it won't be peaceful here for days." ”

I remembered that there were elves nearby, and said, "The poisonous water spider king is dead, isn't this area the territory of the elves?" ”

Leo said: "Don't worry, don't say that humans and orcs won't agree, neither will the dragon scale crocodile king and the demonized monitor lizard, we'll arrange it in a few days, the Three Rivers Mountains can't divide the territory into your turn, you have to mix it up here, after all, this will be our backyard in the future." ”

"That's right!" I said, "Isn't it appropriate for the Five Rangers to expand their ranks here?" ”

Leo said, "I had already arranged it before I came, and when the whale bones were done, they would do it." ”

I said, "Look, I'll just say you're good at it." ”

Leo said: "You have to know, if you want to be a shopkeeper, no way!" ”

After resting for a while, I left where I was and walked towards the territory of the elves in the southeast.

The Tyrannosaurus rex slept soundly, but Jixiang and Jili were not idle, and they had been paying attention to the movements of the three clans and the mage Talai people.

Speaking of which, the people who can go deep into this place are not ordinary characters, the alertness is quite high, and the number of people is not large, so they don't come up and do it, but they are each on guard to search the surrounding area.

Interestingly, the Mage Tower sent a warrior steward, an elf with a dual sword and a bow.

When they were sure that the Poison Water Spider King was dead, I also left, and even Jixiang and Jili were evacuated, leaving only the magical drone invented by Leo, but it was only for vague investigation.

A day later, we slowly approached the range of the Elven Forest.

The junction of the forest and the swamp is naturally wooded and full of quagmire, and these trees are mostly some water-resistant and moisture-resistant varieties, and here are all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants inhabited, between the grass and shrubs and branches, everywhere their nest pupal cocoons and silk nets, it looks messy, dirty, dirty and unclean, as if even the air is floating with countless flying insects and pervasive poisonous fog.

Plants that can grow in such a harsh environment are naturally not gentle and tender varieties, on the contrary, sharp thorns, highly poisonous juices, fishy and sticky appearance, and even predatory skills are the necessary conditions for plants to survive.

However, it is also interesting that some plants that do not taste very good and even have poison can often produce extremely beautiful flowers that attract insects to pollinate them.

So, among the swamp trees with teeth and claws, dark and gray colors, and cobwebs and insect eggs, there are often brilliant flowers in the cabinets, adding some eye-catching embellishments to this swamp that symbolizes decay and decay......

Among these gorgeous flowers, there is what I was looking for.

A plant that was only as high as my belly, with a main stem the thickness of my little thumb and leaves the size of my palm, covered with sticky hairs and a bitter smell, was exactly what I was looking for.

Or rather, that's what Leo needs.

"Well, it looks like it, try it......" Leo said.

I was a little disgusted, and Leo added, "Don't worry, this thing is as harmless as a cabbage leaf compared to wolf pollen!" ”

I endured the nausea and tore off a small bit and put it in my mouth, and a strong bitter taste spread in my mouth.

I hurriedly spit it out: "Phew, it's so bitter!" ”

Leo said again: "Touch it, touch it a few more times, don't break it." ”

I endured the uncomfortable sticky feeling and brushed the leaves.

Then, I had a greasy, black substance on my hands.

"That's right!" Leo said, "** not far from ten. ”

I hurriedly summoned the water elemental to wash away the disgusting black oil and asked, "What the hell is this?" ”

"Great poison, magic weapon to make money, refreshing secret medicine, deep props!" Leo was very happy, and his tone was a little exaggerated, "It makes people hate and hate, makes people sick but inspired-tobacco!" ”

"It doesn't look like a good thing." I said, "You're going to make money with him?" ”

"Of course!" Leo said, "That's why I had to bring Trist on board!" I was worried that this thing was in the depths of the Elven Forest, and only he could get it, but I didn't expect it to be on the edge of the swamp. ”

"I remember," I said, "it's the paper stick you earthlings lit in your mouth!" ”

"That's called flue-cured tobacco," Leo said, "but in fact, on the planet, many people like to enjoy tobacco and alcohol." ”

I frowned: "Since it's as famous as wine, it seems that I don't need to touch it." ”

"Of course, you don't need to," Leo said, "and tobacco is more harmful than alcohol, alcohol is sick, tobacco causes cancer, in short, it's not a good thing, but you can also see that it's always good for a warrior class to drink a little alcohol, and magicians need to smoke a cigarette to concentrate or something......"

"Then do it!" I started collecting tobacco, "That's what you're looking for?" ”

"Don't forget, there's that kind of tree called Decay," said Leo, "and its seeds are a bit like chestnuts, but they have patterns, look for them." ”

I said, "What about auspiciousness and auspiciousness?" And the magic drone is also dispatched, I can't find it alone. ”

Leo said, "It has been sent out a long time ago. ”

After a while, news came from both auspicious and auspicious, but in two different directions.

We went to the direction of Geely first, after all, Geely has not fully mastered flying yet, and we have to take care of it first.

Gilly held a small pile of chestnut-like fruits, and waited for me under the tree,

When I arrived, it happily bit the "chestnut" open and threw it aside in disgust.

These "chestnuts" emit a smell similar to that of rotten animals being burned.

"Peel through the bark and see!" Leo said.

I tried it, but I saw that drips of white slime were oozing from under the bark, and the taste was stronger than that of "chestnuts".

"Yes!" Leo said excitedly, "It's a pity that it's a wild breed, and the yield is so low!" ”

I said, "What's that called?" ”

"Rubber!" Leo said, "Don't look at it smelling bad, after processing, it stinks even more!" ”

"What?" I was stunned.

"Just kidding, after processing, it is a very good industrial raw material, tires, shoes, button belts, faucets, water pipe and bottle stoppers, all need to use rubber." Leo said, "With it, the industrial revolution and the magic life can be combined, and this is called the ether life!" ”

I have learned the general content of the industrial life on the earth, that is, since then, the human beings on the earth have completely got rid of the shackles of primitive agriculture, and the population, economy, military, science and technology, have developed in an all-round way, and have entered civilization and prosperity.

Now, the stinky tree that secretes white slime in front of us will bring all this to our world.

I collected a bunch of seeds, and because I couldn't put them in the Sumeru bracelet, I had to take them with me.

Then, I took auspiciousness with me and went to the place where auspiciousness was.

Jixiang also found rubber, but the seeds are different.

"It's just a good time to be cross-bred," Leo said, "and it seems that the farmland can't accommodate our new breeds." ”

"Do you want to open up new planting areas?" I remembered the backyard of a house.

"No, this time, we're playing big," Leo said, "and we're going to have an entire half-plane as a farm, whether we've found it ourselves, rented it from other magicians, or even, stolen it!" ”

"Dimensional exploration?" I say.

"Yes, don't you lack combat experience? If you can't let go of your hands and feet on the main plane, then go to the different plane! Leo was full of ambition, "This is called brushing copies, and by the way, playing and stealing vegetables, but who dares to steal our vegetables, hum ......"

I said, "We are just going to treat these things as treasures, and other magicians won't come and steal them even if they find out, right?" ”

"You'll know when they discover the value of these plants!" Leo said, "We've got to be defensive, eh, I suddenly had an idea!" ”

"New discoveries?" I said, "Tell me about it." ”

"Of course, you haven't fully touched the earth's network, just listen to me, maybe you don't know much, but what I'm talking about now may help you understand," Leo said, "Actually, the universe is like a huge network, each plane is a node, the large plane and the mage tower are one after another with firewalls erected on the local area network, there are many nodes inside, and at the same time connected to other local area networks, forming a huge network!" ”
