Chapter 29 Farmland was burned

 In the era before industrialized sugar production, sweetness was a very luxurious feeling. While it brought high calories, it also caused the brain to secrete more hormones to calm negative emotions such as sadness and pain, so some people fell out of love.

Overeating after a meeting mainly involves consuming sugar.

There is no sugar, and the main sources of sweetness are honey and some naturally high-sugar crops, such as beets, which contain 40% sugar and are very important sweet crops.

But it is a pity that it is difficult to grow beets in the underground city and even in this world. Not to mention whether there is enough food, the underground city cannot meet the lighting conditions required by the beets.

It takes a long period of high-light environment to convert the starch in beets into sugar. This condition is not available in the underground city, nor in the world.

But Ange is just a vegetable-growing skeleton. Vegetable-growing is his main business, and growing food is incidental.

There were originally sixty skeletons on the farm, and each skeleton was responsible for fifty acres of farmland, some growing vegetables and some growing grain. When the immortal soul disappeared, he was the only one left on the farm, and he saw the crops in other farmland.

As it withered day by day, Ange couldn't control his instinct and tried his best to take care of other farmland.

Of course, he couldn't take care of three thousand acres of farmland even if he split it in half. In the end, he could only take care of a few crops, and the rest could only watch them wither.

Sugar beet happens to be the main crop grown by Ange. The planting scale is only slightly smaller than that of grain, but the yield is large and the storage capacity in the granary is more than that of grain. It is even less valuable than grain.

Should forty pounds of beets be exchanged for forty pounds of grain? Ange transferred forty pounds of beets, and when he took them out, he discovered that under the influence of the soil, the beets had dehydrated and their weight was only 70% of their original weight.

"It's too much, too much. In exchange of equal value, beets are more than ten times more expensive than grain. Just give me four kilograms. That's enough." Esk looked at the pile of beets that had been transferred, his eyes were shining, but he couldn't help but feel sad.

of rejection.

Sugar beets are not only more than ten times more expensive than grains, but they are also expensive and have no market, because there are no sugar beets to sell on the market. Even if they are only given four kilograms, Eske will make a lot of money.

Although Ange was jealous when he moved forty kilograms of beets at once, he did not dare to take advantage of this. He thought that this rule was set by Ange, and it was only a rule if Ange was willing to abide by it.

If he fails to abide by the terms, he is not even qualified to bargain.

Therefore, if you do not have the ability to uphold the rules and are not qualified to bargain, you must never break them.

Are they equivalent? Ange tilted his head. The reserves of sugar beets in the granary are larger and easier to grow. The price is so much more expensive than grain. Doesn’t it mean that growing sugar beets is more cost-effective?

After receiving the reward, Esk rolled up his sleeves enthusiastically and tried his best to engrave the magic circle on Ange.

"Carve it here. The angle here is just right and it can cover the largest area." Esk made a few gestures and found a suitable location. The location was in the middle of the cliff. Esk needed to climb up to get it.

After looking at it, Eske said awkwardly: "I'm going to find a rope. It's too high and it's hard to use force."

Ange tilted his head and asked, "Can you fly?"

Esk responded shamefully: "I can't hold on."

As an intermediate mage, Esk can fly for a short period of time, but not for a long time. It's okay to climb a wall in an emergency, but he can't do delicate work like inscribing a magic circle while hovering.

Ange reached out his hand and cast the pollination spell on Esk, lifting him up from the ground.

Esk was startled, but when he realized it was Ange who did it, he was relieved and geared up, determined to perform well in return for Ange's beets.

One hour has passed, two hours have passed, three hours have passed... Eske turned around from time to time with his heart pounding, and kept yelling in his heart: "No way, no way? Can anyone really stand firm for such a long time?

?”

For three hours, Ange held him steadily like this without any sign of instability. It was simply unbelievable. Even a great magician could not have such a long-lasting ability.

In the past, Esk only inferred Ange's strength from Film's attitude towards Ange, but now he truly felt the unfathomable, vast, endless, endless cycle of strength.

Even though it only requires one level of wind magic to lift him up, this kind of continuous and stable output is more difficult. Anyone can stand on one leg. Try asking him to stand on one leg for three hours.

This is definitely a level that only the Mysterious Mage can achieve. Considering that Ange is still a projection, it must be at least as strong as the Truth Mage. That is a god. The Ange in front of you is very likely to really be the immortal king.

projection.

Eske instantly understood why Felin had such a respectful attitude.

Esk, who was extremely shocked, naturally would not have thought that there was a guy in this world who spent more than three hundred years practicing level one magic just to water crops. This misunderstanding was huge.

It took a full four hours to engrave the lighting array, mainly because Eske wanted to express it well. The area of ​​the lighting array was larger, so it took more time.

After completing the task, Eske carried four kilograms of beets and went home happily. He didn't hear the sarcasm of Negris in Ange's soul at all:

"The magic circle is really bad. The magic patterns are not concise enough, there are too many redundant circuits, the conversion efficiency is low, the energy consumption is high, and there is no stable structure. Once the release process starts, it will first become stronger and then weaken. It will be so bright at the beginning, and then

It's so dark behind that you can't even see the ants clearly, it's terrible."

"It is very easy to have this problem if you have not received a systematic education in formations. A simple lighting technique, such a magic circuit will only be inefficient and not fatal, but if you want to use it as a stable formation, it will be a big problem.

Already."

Ange tilted his head: "Oh."

"Don't be so naked. Fly up and I'll teach you how to change it."

"Oh." Ange flew up, followed Nigris's instructions, modified the magic array, and then poured in magic power. The magic array flashed a few times, then emitted a steady and bright light, lighting up the entire sky.

pit.

Bathed in the bright light of the lighting circle, Ange suddenly had an idea: "Can the rain spell be used to carve the magic circle?"

"It's possible to carve, but your Rain Breaking Technique was created by you. You still have to turn it into a magic pattern, flatten it, combine it, and you haven't learned a magic circle. How can you transform it? It's better to just use a water ball.

The magic circle is ready-made." Negris said.

Ange shook his head: "Water polo technique, don't water the ground, rain, water the ground, you teach it."

Nigris was used to Ange's speaking style and understood it immediately. He complained helplessly: "You are quite persistent in planting. Is there any difference? Isn't it all water? Some people are going to die of thirst. You

Can't the raining technique condense water to save people? You can learn it if you want, since it's just idle time anyway..."

Ange couldn't listen to the rest of the words, and all he could think about was: Can the rain spell save a person who is dying of thirst?

This reminded him of the person who opened the teleportation array. He starved to death of thirst because there was no water at that time. Can the rain spell save a person who is dying of thirst?

It seems really possible. Why didn't I think of it at that time? Ange cast a rain spell, looked at the water droplets on his palm, and fell into deep thought.

With a surge of wind elements, Esk flew back from the only passage and said urgently: "Sir, it's not good, your farmland has been burned down."

The farmland was burned! Ange's soul was shaken violently, and he turned to look at Esk. In his empty eyes, a fire burst out that made Esk's heart palpitate.

The water droplets on the palm of the raised hand turned into sharp ice crystals, which stuck to the ground.
