No wonder he looks so weird! It's weird enough to be told by a predator that "you don't have enough nutrients to eat".

"Ahh This..."For a while, Liu Ergou was also a little crying and laughing.

"Let's go, I'll ask the old gargoyle for himself."

Of course, Liu Ergou has to go in person, and he can't let Ellanster ask the old gargoyle, "What do you think we Meiss taste like?"

Arriving at the construction site, the old gargoyle was not assigned to hunt today, and was in a petrified state at the moment to maintain energy.

"Get up! I have a question for you! Liu Ergou knocked the old gargoyle's shell, "They told me that you told... What's your name? ”

The old gargoyle, which had been motionless like a stone carving, immediately woke up, and the stone skin of his whole body squeezed each other, making a roar like a grinding disc.

"Just call me Winston." The old gargoyle lowered his head and said humbly.

"Winston..."Liu Ergou's mind immediately conjured up the appearance of a gorilla addicted to peanut butter.

Then he asked, "Okay Winston, tell me in detail what you told them about 'malnutrition'?" ”

Winston looked at the group of people beside Liu Ergou, immediately understood, and replied, "My lord, that's the case. We gargoyles suck blood from the life energy of our prey, as you know. ”

Seeing Liu Ergou nodded, Winston said again: "Originally, we would only absorb the blood of the demonic beasts in the Sunset Mountain Range, but there are two reasons for this. ”

"One of them is naturally because we don't want to attack the intelligent races, we only suck blood to maintain our survival needs, not to provoke wars with other races, so naturally we won't provoke them."

"The second reason is that, compared to the flesh-and-blood demonic beasts in the Sunset Mountain Range, these orcs in the wasteland are too dry."

"For example, although we don't refuse any blood, we don't touch a mire frog that feeds on moss all year round in the Sunset Mountains.

Although the mire frog is very large and has a lot of blood, because it only eats moss, the nutrients in the body are too little, and the life energy in the blood is very thin. ”

"So I dare to guess that the problem of this Mauss rat clan should also be caused by malnutrition;

As for the Olo Owl Clan, although they have not sucked their blood, I am afraid that this is also the reason for this. ”

Winston replied respectfully, then hung his head again.

It is said that the one who knows himself best is always the enemy, and today Liu Ergou has seen it.

It's just that if you follow Winston's "understanding" method, it's not so much about understanding the strength of your opponent as it is about the dining experience.

Dianping Gargoyle Edition? Liu Ergou smiled secretly in his heart, and quickly dragged his boundless thoughts back.

"I hate to admit it, but it's like a stone statue... As Winston said, we are indeed malnourished all year round. Ellanster listened and spoke slowly.

"The northern wilderness is perennially dry and rainless, and there is no vegetation to grow, let alone grow crops.

Moreover, we are the people abandoned by the Empire, and neither the raw materials nor the cultivation techniques are available in this northern wasteland. ”

"Our Maiss rat clan uses a mushroom in the cave as its main food all year round, and even if we have meat to eat with the boss now, we still don't have much nutrition.

In fact, there are fewer and fewer rats in newborns in our species."

With that, Elantster let out a long sigh.

Bufax on the side also had a bitter face, presumably there were similar problems in the clan. Eating meat alone naturally lacks a lot of nutrients, which Liu Ergou, a fat house in the previous life, had a good understanding of.

Not to mention that the meat sent back to the camp was all processed by gargoyles sucking dried blood.

Like this ordinary magical beast, most of the life energy in the body is concentrated in the blood, and after sucking out the blood, there is naturally nothing left in the flesh.

The solution to this problem is to find ways to produce more nutritious food.

"Sylvie, bring me the map of the Northern Wastelands." Liu Ergou pretended to be pacing and thinking, and took the opportunity to ask Sylvie.

Despite its name, the terrain is much more than a plain.

The entire eastern part of the northern heath is completely enclosed by the Sunset Mountains, which rise several kilometers high, like a moat, and only near the end of the Diabal Sea is a huge canyon that runs through it as the only access road.

To the west and south of the moor, it is surrounded by the equally majestic Santias River.

The Santias River, which rises from the Sunset Mountains in the east to the Emperor Baltic Sea in the west, has been regarded as a natural defense line in the north by the Orc Empire since ancient times, and Liu Ergou was also shocked when he saw the Santias River for the first time.

As for the north of the wasteland, it has been washed and eroded by the Diabal Sea for many years, and stretches from the Sunset Mountains in the east to the mouth of the Santias River in the west.

There are two wonders at the same time: steep cliffs and vast beaches. However, due to the changeable currents here, there are not many good harbors on the north shore suitable for ships to dock.

In addition to these, even in the center of the wasteland, which is covered in dust and sand all year round, the terrain is undulating. For example, the camp of Liu Ergou and his party is located on a rather dangerous plateau.

In terms of area alone, the entire northern heath is almost three-quarters the size of the Earth's Australian continent. And the plateau where Liu Ergou is located is almost as big as the North Island of New Zealand.

Sensing Liu Ergou's thoughts, the system automatically gave him a very desperate answer:

"Straight-line distance from this place to the nearest point of the Santias River: 1,104 kilometres."

It seems that diversion of water for irrigation is impossible, but what about groundwater?

"I'm sorry, but according to the system, the plateau (at sea level) has a minimum of 285 meters and a maximum of 940 meters. Possibility of obtaining groundwater at current productivity: 0"

Or rather, digging a well nearly 300 meters deep with bare hands? Liu Ergou might as well move directly.

Both roads have been blocked, and Liu Ergou is now completely helpless. The water in the wasteland comes mainly from a few small lakes, and the few rainfalls that accumulate a little fresh water each year are barely enough for the surrounding tribes to drink.

Want to irrigate enough farmland to feed the two tribes? It's a drop in the bucket.

The Sunset Mountains are rich in water, and the warm and humid air currents that accumulate in the Sunset Mountains all year round not only make the summits snow-capped, but also form mountain springs of various sizes that can be seen everywhere.

However, with the current strength of the territory, hunting at the foot of the mountain is still like walking on thin ice and going into the mountains to carry water? If you don't get it right, it will become a meat delivery in the mountains.

In the final analysis, with the little place that Liu Ergou is exploring now, compared to the entire Sunset Mountain Range, it is like a budding new leaf on a hundred-year-old giant tree.
