Chapter 811: See the Dragon Acorn Tree Again
"The gods are in the game, if they win the bet, the benefits are great, but if they lose the bet, it is easy to bury them." The Storm Queen said disapprehantly, "Especially this kind of existence that doesn't know which god it represents, it is easy to get involved in the unknown god war, so you must be cautious." ”
"I didn't expect Queen Xinbu, who has always been known for her quick temper, to be so steady in her concept of governing the country." King Ahsan smiled like an old fox, "After the turmoil of the gods last year, the laws of belief in the gods have changed, and most of the gods have greatly increased their dependence on secular beliefs.
Last year's catastrophe was not the end, but the beginning, and it is very likely that the pattern of the gods will change and adjust dramatically.
The gods are all laying out the plan, but how to develop, I am afraid that the gods themselves have no way to influence it.
Their pawns are not dead creatures without will, and in the process of development, they often undergo unexpected changes, as is the case with this Commander Gavin now.
He is now not only a voter of the Lady of Strategy, but also a close relationship with the developmental Merikai of the Nature God system, and now a natural balancer of unknown origin has emerged.
He himself fused a series of resources in his hands, and even forced himself to start dabbling in the road priesthood through a migration and immigration road, which can belong to a new pioneering neutral priesthood, which is not only extremely useful for secular development, but also in line with the interests of most gods, whether it is those good gods or evil beings, they are in a state of wait-and-see that is happy to see it happen, which gives him countless possibilities. ”
In the position of King Asan, he needs to weigh not only the interests of the world, but also the interests of the gods.
If a series of development plans formulated by them complement the interests of most of the gods, then the implementation will be like a boat sailing with the current, traveling thousands of miles a day.
But if the situation is the opposite, it is not as simple as sailing against the current, it is very likely that it will be difficult to move an inch, or even die halfway.
If the plan is carried out in complete disobedience, or even shakes the faith of most of the gods, the matter is serious, and the dominance is not guaranteed, which is commonplace, in the words of the Far Eastern Empire, it is called going against the sky.
"In this way, you are also happy to see it come to fruition!" After King Ahsan's explanation, the Storm Queen, who was originally not very interested in the famous young man, couldn't help but be a little interested.
Although she left the day-to-day affairs of the Kingdom of Agolaron to the team of advisors led by the chief advisor most of the time, she was the real queen of the kingdom after all, and she was still very concerned about the development of the kingdom, and knew her own strengths and weaknesses.
The road is one of the fatal weaknesses of Agolaron, which has certainly become one of the means to resist the invasion of the Ser Kingdom, but also limits its rapid development.
"Yes." The smile on King Yasan's face couldn't help but grow, "The development of a road will drive far more things than we imagined, not only opening up more territory for intelligent creatures, but also driving the economic development of the surrounding areas."
With convenient transportation, those cities are no longer isolated cities, and the territory is no longer self-developing, but connected with each other, closely related, and learning from each other's strengths.
It can make the advantages of each city to the extreme, and under the same population, it can create five times or even ten times the wealth.
This is to build a huge cross-regional empire, cultivate a solid foundation, according to his current development model, what he will achieve in the future, even if I have no way to predict, it is not impossible to become a god as a mortal. ”
In the past period, King Ahsan has worked Gavin's side, studying the mystery of his meteoric rise.
The deeper the research, the more I found that the success of the other party is not an accident, but the general trend of future development.
The isolated city development model of Feilun Intelligent Biology has reached a bottleneck - when the population reaches a certain level, there is no way to rely on the supply around the city alone, and it is necessary to expand satellite cities to assist in supply.
But without sufficient military support, such new settlements are dangerous, and entire settlements could be slaughtered at every turn.
Even if it is established, the road is the most important thing.
Even the demand for roads in the Kingdom of Cormier has increased dramatically with the steady development of recent decades.
As long as new planning and construction can be completed for all roads in the country, their tax revenues will be conservatively estimated to be tripled without any increase in the land area.
As a very far-sighted ruler, King Ahsan only contracted Gavin to help build the roads that involved the King's Forest, which needed to be of the natural race, while the rest of the roads were to be built by the domestic construction team.
Building your own modern magic-building team is the latest task for all Cormier Kingdom mages.
As long as they were given a little time, King Ahsan believed that the speed of their outburst of construction was only stronger than that of Gavin, after all, their huge foundation was there, and the number and quality of spellcasters they possessed were not comparable to that of a young man who had just risen.
The canonization of mortals as gods is a kind of extremely high-standard praise.
It is not too rare for Faeron to be a mortal to become a god.
But one counts as one, and they are all promoted by more powerful gods, some are reborn by the previous gods, and some become godhead carriers.
With his own strength, there is only one mortal who can make himself a god - Karthas.
Although he only became a god for a short time, he was destroyed by uncontrolled magic.
"So, it wasn't an accident that he chose the relatively remote city of Usmail over the Sesk city of Tefram, but to further exploit his advantage?" Hembo said thoughtfully.
"Yes." King Ahsan nodded affirmatively, "His layout over there has now taken shape, you just wait and see, in a few months, it will become a new giant valley, and all the forces will be fully mobilized by him, including the natural forces there."
Her Majesty should be most aware that those natural races are certainly the most stubborn and conservative people, but if you become their friend and benefactor, they will spare no effort to support them in some matters.
The Khan of Yamen had previously borrowed the power of the Lord of Withlight to stir up the situation in the Great Valley and put pressure on the kingdom of Lesserman from behind.
It is also a double-edged sword, if it succeeds, it will certainly bring a lot of pressure to the Lesserman Kingdom, and even disturb the situation in the entire Eastern Regions.
However, once it fails, it will also backfire on itself, making the residents of Jugu share the same hatred and join the ranks of the confrontation. ”
"I want to see if this young commander is as amazing as you say." The Storm Queen's interest was thoroughly piqued.
Because the kingdom of Agolalong, which she ruled, was located on a huge peninsula deep into the Sea of Falling Stars, but they belonged to the end position, the front end was wrapped by another kingdom, Otembir, and in the middle of the kingdom was an ancient forest that occupied nearly half of the country's land area.
As a result of this arrangement, they rely heavily on sea freight than land transport.
It's just that the exchanges between coastal cities are simple, but the north and south are more difficult, and what can be solved by land transportation of 200 or 300 kilometers has to be detoured by sea for thousands of kilometers.
What really restricts the development of roads in the kingdom of Agolalong is the same old story.
The question of the balance between nature and development, especially the road that crosses the forest.
Whether it is the wildlife of the ancient forest or the original inhabitants, it will have a great impact and impact, and many natural races are naturally rejected.
In many places, the roads that cross the forest are carved out with swords and axes.
And in Agolaron, those natural forces, especially the half-elves, are at the top of Faeron in terms of number and proportion, and one of the three people here is a half-elf.
They are the descendants of wood elves with a heavy sense of nature, and even the love and protection of the forest by half-elves far exceeds that of some more open elves.
Therefore, three hundred years ago, a sharp conflict broke out between the half-elves and the human inhabitants, and a war called the "Arm of Indar" began.
The war led to the split of the peninsula in two, with the half-elves centered on the Eumulin and the establishment of what is now Agolalon, and those humans who refused to lay down their axes were driven to the end of the Indal Peninsula to establish Ottenbuir in that place full of reefs and islands.
To this day, the relationship between the two sides is still not harmonious.
Even Xinbu, as the most prestigious queen in the history of the Agoralon Kingdom, still had to be cautious in dealing with matters related to racial disputes, and follow ancient traditions as much as possible.
And these traditions, which are not entirely beneficial to the prosperity of a country.
……
Whether it is the witches of the Lesser Soul Kingdom or the high-ranking members of the Feron coalition army in Typhram City, they are all in the eye of the war in the Lysle Forest, and they can't imagine how huge the subsequent impact and changes will be.
Even Gavin, the party concerned, didn't think of it.
The Dragon Oak Mother Tree is not just a matter of purifying the Lord of Wilt and the damage he causes, but directly uses her corpse and this withered land as nutrients, and forcibly gives birth to a dragon acorn tree.
Although this newborn dragon acorn tree could not compete with the Lord of Withered, it was also about three times taller than the one in Eagle Cliff Town, the dragon oak leader in the rocky land.
It is a combination of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree and the Demon Tree, with the dragon scale bark of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, but with the thorny crown of the Demon Tree, as well as the representative eight vine tentacles, and a large number of gourd-like fruits hanging from it.
But the fruit is not purple, but emerald green, and there is no terrible mouth on the trunk.
It abandons the Demon Tree's way of life, which quickly spawns the Demon Tree by eating flesh and blood, because it has a more convenient source of energy.
The dragon oak tree is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is closely connected with the forest, and it is not a one-sided extraction, but a kind of mutual benefit, which is more intuitive through the attributes of this dragon and acorn tree.
Dragon acorn tree.
Vitality: 512 (32D8+384)
Body Type: Super Giant
Attributes: Strength 39, Agility 7, Constitution 35, Intelligence 12, Perception 18, Charisma 12
Abilities: Plant Traits, Impale Immunity, Damage Reduction 10/-, Telepathy, Tree Perception, Root Entanglement, Mastery Grappling, Paralysis, Thorn Shooting, Hatching Nature Guard, Dragon Oak Portal, Dream Purification Web.
Most of the abilities of the Dragon Acorn Tree are very similar to the Demon Tree, and some of them are even common to tree people, such as plant characteristics, piercing part immunity, damage reduction, tree perception and root entanglement, etc., just because of the size, there is a big difference in strength.
Paralysis, thorn shooting, and hatching the natural guardians, are the inherited magic trees, especially the last one, several times throughout the natural world, the magic tree is also unique, currently known, there is no semicolon.
It is worth emphasizing the last two abilities, which are unique to the Dragon Acorn Tree.
The Dragon Oak Portal is naturally no stranger, and the first Dragon Acorn Tree in Eagle Cliff Town, the Rock Dragon Oak Leader, was planted because of this ability.
They can teleport through the connection between the dragon oak mother tree and the daughter tree.
Teleportation is possible not only between mother trees and subtrees, but also between subtrees.
The significance to Gavin can be imagined, he can directly transfer some kobold soldiers and supplies directly from the dragon oak collar or the dragon oak mother tree.
It is important to emphasize that the use of portals is not unrestrained.
Even in Faerun, the law of conservation of energy must be observed, and it is nothing more than due to the magic and the characteristics of the multiverse, which is more diverse.
Each portal has the power to gather mana, and once the accumulated mana in it is used up, it means that the portal temporarily stops until it has enough energy to use next time.
This means that the number of teleportations per day for the same portal is closely related to the distance and the weight of the materials to be teleported.
The closer the distance, the more nature of teleportation is at the same energy, and vice versa.
The Dragon Oak Portal is no exception, without putting too much pressure on the Dragon Acorn Tree itself, it can transport up to a hundred dog-headed soldiers carrying no more than ten kilograms of equipment from Eagle Cliff Town every day, and if all other functions are stopped operating for twenty-four hours, the number can triple the number.
If you change to other size creatures, you have to do the same thing, humans can only teleport fifty, twenty-five large, and twelve super-large, at most to this size, and there is no way for giants and above to pass through the dragon oak portal.
If you want to transport troops on a large scale, you have to travel by land or air, and the portal is just a supplement.
For Gavin, the daily transmission capacity of 100 kobold artificial soldiers is enough, after all, he is now in the early stage of troop transfer, and what he now has in his hands is only a 500 human elite, a 100-man kobold road construction team and two squads of field medics.
What really made Gavin feel like he had gained a lot was the last ability.
Dream Purification Web (Special Ability) - After entering the rooted state, it will automatically establish contact with the surrounding natural plants, forming a life cycle network, which can slowly purify all living beings in the enveloping area, and drive out all kinds of corrupting forces from them.
Creatures that stay there for more than eight hours will regain at least one amount of health (equal to the Constitution modifier) and have a chance to heal their illnesses (the chance of being expelled, caused by Corrupting Power, is greatly increased).
The area covered by the Dream Purification Web, which is related to Constitution (Constitution Adjustment/km, currently has a 12.5 km radius).
If it is a sapient creature with sufficient intrinsic attributes, it can access the Dragon Oak Dream Realm through this network.
To put it bluntly, this is a signal tower of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree in the material plane, which can allow all living beings in the covered area to have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Oak Dream Realm.
More precisely, it should be a local area network.
Like the makeshift dreams that were woven over the Lysle Forest, the Dragon Acorn Tree can weave a small dream of its own, independent of the Dragon Oak Dream, but also interconnected.
The benefits of this are obvious, it will become a subsidiary extranet of Dragon Oak Dream, and those who have passed the assessment will be eligible to enter Dragon Oak Dream.
This is for the sake of the safety of the Dragon Oak Dream, after all, for those powerful spellcasters and some special beings, the dream can also become a passage, and follow this passage to the other side - the Nine Rings Spell can travel to the other world together.
And the Dragon Oak Dream Realm is completely tied to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, Gavin and the others don't want the enemy to come along the Dream Realm, so they naturally have to set up a lot of protective nets.
Not only that, but the Aroshi Dream Realm, which is being formed in the forest of the Cormier Kingdom, and the Eagle Cliff Dream supported by the Dragon Acorn Tree of the Dragon Oak Collar, are also attached to the outer dream, and they have strict restrictions on each other.
There's more to this ability than that.
Don't forget, the Dragon Acorn Tree has also inherited another of the Demon Tree's abilities, the Hatching Nature Guard.
In fact, they are the activated seeds of the Dragon Acorn Tree, and will inherit all the abilities of the Dragon Acorn Tree, including the ability of the Dream Purification Web.
As long as enough Nature Guardians are hatched, Dragonoak Dream's affiliate network can cover all parts of the world.
The Druids of Jutani, led by the two great druids of Knightyat and Hanso, were even more excited than Gavin when they learned about the special abilities of the Dragon Acorn Tree.
Han Suo shuddered a little uncontrollably, and said, "The Balancer of Nature lives up to this name, planting a Nature Guardian in those corrupted places, and it won't be long before the place will be completely purified." ”
Compared to Gavin, these druids were thinking about the purpose of cleaning up the forest.
"This is indeed the general direction of purifying the corruption of the forest, but Your Excellency should not think too much about it, like this time, the natural balancer personally intervened to start a large-scale war, because of the great help of your Lyth Order, without you, there is no way to mobilize the power of the entire Lysle Forest.
The natural guards born from the sub-tree will inevitably be the same as the newly born demon tree under normal circumstances, very weak and relatively limited in purification ability, if they rush into the battlefield, not only will they not play the role of purification, but will be destroyed by those evil forces. Gavin vaccinated Hanso's druid in advance.
The Lysle Dragon Acorn Tree has been able to grow to its present level in a short period of time, on the one hand, it is of course the unsparing support of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, and on the other hand, it draws a lot of nutrients from the Lord of Withered, and the help of all the creatures of the Lysle Forest cannot be ignored.
When the daughter tree hatches on a large scale and the Nature Guardian is in full bloom, the Dragon Oak Mother Tree does not have the ability to support multiple battlefields, and it may not have the corresponding conditions.
