Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 1302 - 700: The Special Benefits of Eradicating the Divine Root_3
Chapter 1302: Chapter 700: The Special Benefits of Eradicating the Divine Root_3
"Since it’s an isolated half-plane, there must be a powerful transmission restriction. Can the Dragon Oak Mother Tree enter?"
"Normally, it wouldn’t be possible, but we have Stelina. Her Yaling Nobility status isn’t harmonized here; her root is in the Golden Apple Garden. She is the true heir of that territory, and the Golden Apple in her possession is a key to enter that place. As long as she issues an invitation, the Mother Tree can gain entry. However, such an invitation must be sent from within the Golden Apple Garden itself. This makes it extremely dangerous, as the Green Dragon, which has turned that place into its lair, won’t stand idly by."
"As long as we can get in, the rest will be manageable. Inside a Green Dragon’s Nest, defending against the counterattack of an Ancient Green Dragon and slaying it are entirely different matters. However, if the Dragon Oak Mother Tree gains entry, it can form an overwhelming advantage, and smashing it to death would be as easy as swatting a fly. This matter must be carefully strategized, and a detailed battle plan must be formulated."
Gaven followed up, "This happens to be the second matter I was preparing to discuss. The Lady of Strategy has an unquestioned advantage in this field. I’ll select a few trusted dedicated sacrificers to station permanently at Mesnoel, where they will establish a Dream War Academy in the Dragon Oak Dream Realm. This academy will provide training in the art of war for all Mother Tree members, enhancing both their knowledge and strategic awareness."
Never underestimate the professional expertise of those dedicated sacrificers in their gods’ divine positions. They possess not only relevant knowledge but also corresponding spells and the reinforcement of laws, particularly the latter, granting them a certain degree of priority advantage.
"Preparations for this can begin, but we must not rush. Instead, it should align with the careful selection and refinement of personnel connected to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree." Lord Virginia naturally recognized the necessity of this, as the residents on the Mother Tree need specialized knowledge of warfare. Specifically, the army must undergo professional restructuring. The previous military structure of the Yaling is no longer sufficient to meet the Mother Tree’s war needs.
"They are merely support staff responsible for providing expertise and guidance in warfare. As for how to proceed, that will ultimately be up to the Lady’s decisions." Gaven’s stance on the disciples of the Lady of Strategy remained as clear as ever. This was true not only for the Mother Tree but also for the Conqueror Army.
As long as there was no conflict, he didn’t mind promoting the faith of the Lady of Strategy. However, any faith he promoted had to serve him, not oppose him.
"Stelina and the Yaling Special Task Force she leads need to return. I need to rebuild the army, and the first objective requires Stelina’s full cooperation."
"You can speak directly with General Stelina in a bit; I believe they will be the first to enter the Dragon Oak Dream Realm from Mesnoel." Gaven handed ten Blood Bear Fruits to Virginia, saying, "These magical fruits can enhance bear-related abilities. Use them as you see fit."
The demand for this was significantly greater for Lord Virginia than for Gaven, given that the natural races under Virginia’s leadership produced an abundance of Druids. Whether through their own Bestial Transformations or their bear companions, these fruits could prove highly useful.
Lord Virginia accepted the Blood Bear Fruits without hesitation and pulled out two bundles of wooden rods tied together like firewood from his Portable Dimensional Hole.
To someone as attuned to the natural energies as Gaven, it was obvious these were far more than mere firewood. They exuded a dense life force, and the naturally intricate patterns upon them were mysterious and profound. Without even needing to use Identify, the information about them instinctively surfaced in Gaven’s mind.
Life Staff.
Charge Count: 60 (Non-rechargeable)
Can expend one charge to cast Cure Spell. Can expend five charges to cast Revival Spell.
These were unmistakably Life Staffs, each valued at 150,000 to 200,000 on the market. Yet they were rare commodities because Cure Spells and Revival Spells cast using these staves required no casting materials. Many spellcasters preferred to stockpile them as strategic resources.
For Gaven, the individual value of a Life Staff wasn’t particularly significant, as he currently commanded dozens of Transcendent Casters. However, Lord Virginia had brought out these staves in bundles—roughly estimated to be no fewer than a hundred—which meant their value was extraordinary. Converted to market terms, their worth easily exceeded 20 million. If all were used for Revival Spells, over a thousand lives could be restored, equivalent to half an army corps—enough to sway the outcome of a war.
Most critical of all was the origin of these Life Staves.
"These Life Staves weren’t manufactured but were grown naturally by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree!"
Gaven wasn’t asking but stating with certainty. He was far too familiar with the aura of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree to be mistaken.
"To be more precise, they were cultivated and shaped by those Fae Druids on the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, using its branches and life force as raw materials," Lord Virginia clarified.
"How long is the growth cycle? What’s the total output?" Gaven didn’t particularly care whether the staves were naturally prompted by the Mother Tree or carefully cultivated. What mattered most was their yield. For such strategic assets, one could never have too many.
"This batch benefited from the Mother Tree’s leveling up, allowing rapid production—over 300 in total, with 150 allocated to you. But such a high volume won’t happen again. Under normal operations, the Mother Tree can produce one staff every ten days without compromising itself.
If the Mother Tree’s energy consumption isn’t considered, this could increase to one per day, but only for up to a month. Beyond that, unless additional energy is supplied, the Mother Tree will temporarily lose this ability. However, if it can purify and absorb vast additional energies, such as the Divine Roots from gods, it could be stimulated to produce further batches. Specific details depend on the situation." Lord Virginia’s implication was clear—these were the spoils of war from destroying the Divine Roots.
Indeed, the gods themselves were the greatest treasures in this world. Compared to them, even the Giant Dragons paled in comparison.
