On the "Smooth Planet" after the rollback, all races live in harmony, and the sight of a prosperous scene proves that there is no food crisis at this time.
Judging from the order of national expansion, since Mana mainly grows in the sea, most of the member states are close to the seaside. They gradually expanded inland after being established for a period of time.
The timing of the rollback was good. The ruins from the previous destruction covered the entire land, and some maritime cities were even built in the sea.
In the "future", when the First Alliance encountered a food crisis, it conducted careful research on its causes and made many research results that were ineffective in changing the status quo.
'Well... most of the opinions are that the population is too large, which led to the chaos that swept the world.' I asked Malefia to stop at a position where she would not be detected by the First Alliance, and flipped through those
Summarized information.
[No, no, no, the real reason is the reduced production of ‘Mana’.] The stupid system posted some pictures with less text, which show the changes in the growth range of Mana over the years.
Their growth range has changed from spreading throughout the entire ocean to gradually retreating away from the coast and into the deep sea, as if they are far away from civilization.
By the way, there are more than 2,000 kinds of languages in the 1,000 races of the First Alliance. I highly doubt that "dialects" were born in each of their tribes.
The profession of translator must be very popular in the first league.
'So, why is the production of something that supports so many races declining?'
【Because the population is too large.】
‘…’
Malefia began to kick Thela Soido's octopus head hard.
[Wait, I don’t mean the same thing as you, let me explain——]
'You explain, I'm listening.'
Malefia kicked her twice more.
[Hey... you said that the number of 'populations' is too many, but I said that the number of 'populations' is too many.] The stupid system even specially created a text panel to highlight two different words.
'That is to say, if there are only one or two main organisms on this planet like previous civilizations, no matter how large their population is, Mana will not reduce production?'
【That's it.】
‘What’s the reason? Why does Mana production decrease when there are more races?’
[Because that’s not ‘food’, but ‘star soul’. 】
The thing sounds a bit familiar. It seems that Mr. Sa likes to cause trouble for them, but the star soul itself is not for food. To use an analogy...
'Azerite?'
【Uh, almost.】
Maybe I used World of Warcraft as the background to fool around with "Cyberlux" for a long time, but now I always think in that direction.
The so-called "Azerite" is what flowed out after the planet Azeroth was stabbed by Sargeras. It is also called the "blood of Azeroth", but it was all taken away by others.
If it is used as a weapon, it cannot be eaten.
'So, what is the relationship between star soul and population size?'
[Because the Gaia consciousness of this 'good weather planet' is a weird guy. He seems to think that it is his responsibility to take care of the life born on the planet. In order to prevent the fight between carnivorous creatures and vegetarian creatures, he used the star soul to create
'Mana' that can be eaten by both parties.]
‘...If converted to humans, it would be raising mosquitoes?’
[That’s why I say He is a weirdo. As a Gaia, normally he should find a way to get rid of the parasites on his body.] There was obvious disdain in the stupid system’s tone.
'Have you revealed your true thoughts?'
[They both said it’s ‘normal’. Which one of us do you think is ‘normal’? 】
‘...Well, it’s true that Alaya and Gaia, who are not doing their jobs properly, are actually players and a stupid system pursuing the undead level.’
【I'm not stupid!】
'So, why did Mana reduce her production?'
[You don’t really think that there is anything that can be eaten by all kinds of creatures on the planet without distinction, do you? When they are eaten by each kind of creature, Gaia will adjust them to suit its feeding habits. This action is relatively rare among races.
The consumption was not large under the circumstances, but now...]
'A thousand races, that's a lot?'
[If you only do this one thing, it is indeed not much, but the problem is that this is not Gaia's main business, and the attention that the will of the planet can allocate to this action is limited. ]
When saying this, the stupid system pulled up a separate screen, showing the scene of two creatures eating Mana at the same time. It can be clearly seen that Mana, which was originally exactly the same, had obvious differences after being eaten and before it began to be digested.
changes in molecular structure.
Next, there were four, eight, and sixteen, eventually becoming a densely packed eating scene that could make someone with trypophobia sick, and every piece of mana in it would have a different change after eating.
Another picture that appeared simultaneously was the shrinking range of Mana output.
[After exceeding the capacity limit, Mana will either become inedible or its production will be reduced.] The stupid system concluded.
'...No living thing on this planet eats anything else?'
[Yes, yes, after entering the civilization stage, the First Alliance has developed some other unique foods, but they are still far behind the total demand. 】
The stupid system once again showed some food made from plants and fungi, but judging from the expressions of the First Alliance members who ate them, their taste was obviously not satisfactory.
'Tsk, I originally thought I wanted to help this civilization develop agriculture...'
[Unlikely, for a thousand major races, what kind of agricultural products can meet the needs of each of their organisms at the same time? And if a new food source is developed for each organism, it will be on the road of Planet Will to Mana to edit a thousand
Although you should be able to support this kind of consumption, it is not necessary, right?】
'Hmm... So what efforts did Alaya of this planet make when the First Alliance was about to perish?'
【Alaya? What Alaya?】
'That's it - Huh?'
Halfway through the words, I remembered that there is no dominant race on this planet. How can a thousand races with almost no similarities give birth to group consciousness? Stitch monsters?
[It must be said that the earliest intelligent race, the ‘Big Eyed Monkeys’, reluctantly gave birth to Alaya, but there are no traces of his involvement in the records of the First Alliance. You can call him out and ask. 】
'Then, you first find a place to land.'
At this time, since it has just entered the stage of civilization, the "Big Eyed Monkey" and its allied races are all working hard to develop. Choosing its capital city should be able to call out its Alaya.
The only thing worth worrying about is whether He can communicate.
