Chapter 189 Drought Relief Supplies
In reality, Bleitzman's account only helped Shu Xin understand part of the "cause and effect," while the "consequences" remained unknown to Bleitzman, who had long since fallen into a deep sleep.
Shu Xin naturally asked Bretzman if he knew who the current king was, and the true riverside elf replied with some confusion:
"Isn't it just Garnar, baby?"
Shu Xin: "Huh?"
It turns out that the Garnar Plain was called the Green Forest Plain three thousand years ago, and the river flowing through it was called the Green River. Shu Xin wanted to ask the Tree of Life why it hadn't told her, but then she realized it wasn't that the Tree of Life wouldn't tell her, but rather that she hadn't asked—
The Tree of Life is indeed almost omniscient and omnipotent, but it is essentially not much different from a search engine. You can find answers by entering a question, but if you don't enter a question, there will be no answers.
...The problem is, who would have thought of this out of the blue?!
Shu Xin recited "Ganar" in Elvish, but she couldn't get any information. Bretzman also shook his head: "I remember the name, but I can't remember who it is. Ganar... erased all his information."
"Ganar named the country, the land, and the river after himself. Is there some special meaning to that?" Shu Xin vaguely realized something and asked, "Did you know that we brought you back from the Bretzman Empire?"
Bratzman was stunned: "The Bratzman Empire?"
After a long silence, Bretzman explained the meaning behind it to Shuxin—
Time has its temporal coordinates, space has its spatial coordinates, and intelligent life naturally has its own coordinates as well. And a name is the most stable of these coordinates. Human mages call themselves by their true names and magical names; powerful human mages can even use their own or others' magical names as magical runes.
Assigning the name of an intelligent life form to a non-living entity means either that the intelligent life form wants to borrow the power of the non-living entity, or that the intelligent life form wants to endow the non-living entity with intelligence through this method.
The naming conventions "Bleitzmann Empire" and "Kingdom of Garnar" clearly belong to the former.
“I actually felt very strange after I woke up. At first, I thought that the reason I could sleep for thousands of years without collapsing was because the Tree of Life was protecting my soul. But the damage the Tree of Life suffered was far beyond my imagination. It no longer had the power to protect me, who was far away in the human realm,” Bretzman sighed softly, a look of sadness appearing on his face for the first time. “So it was Delia…”
Delia, as a forbidden magician, extended the existence of the River Elf Blazeman through the existence of the Blazeman Empire. Did Ganar also use this method to allow himself to live for thousands of years? Then why did Ganar erase all the information about himself anchored by his name?
The king's actions are becoming increasingly perplexing...
Harvest month arrived, and the Phantom Beasts came as scheduled once again. The demon warriors fought bravely as usual, and the magical cats inhaled the monsters in a whirlwind. Only Blatzman, even though she had learned from the Tree of Life about the survival of the river elves over the past three thousand years, still hid away and secretly cried.
After that, Bretzman kept trying to help. She said that she could not only help kill the phantom monsters, but also help harvest the crops. Shu Xin sincerely thanked her and then sent her directly to the teaching building to teach the flower fairy cubs.
It was only when Shu Xin remembered to ask the Tree of Life that she learned that in order to stay conscious, Bretzman was constantly consuming her own soul power. If she were to release magic, the consumption would double!
At Shu Xin's request, the Tree of Life made an estimate: if Bratzman simply remained conscious without consuming any additional part of his soul, he could continue to exist for about ten years; if Bratzman used magic while remaining conscious, he could only continue to exist for about a year.
No wonder Delia made a time capsule for Bletzman and even had her sleep inside it. Shu Xin now wants to ask Bletzman to go inside the capsule and continue sleeping too!
Although Bretzman's arrival promptly curbed the drought in the Sinful Lands, the crops in the fields still did not receive enough irrigation, resulting in a significant reduction in yield, especially the golden wheat, which is most sensitive to irrigation and almost all of it withered and died.
Seeing that vast expanse of withered and collapsed wheat, Shu Xin felt heartbroken, let alone the flower fairies who had been diligently tending the fields day after day. Even though they knew that the food reserves in the Land of Sin were still plentiful and that no one would go hungry, the flower fairies remained silent. Shu Xin hadn't heard any singing in a long time.
The withered crops no longer needed to be harvested, and Nonori and Pengpengan gritted their teeth and extracted magic, which greatly increased the magic powder reserves in the Land of Sin, but no one was happy about it.
The harvest month wasn't over yet, but the fields in the agricultural area had already been completely cleared up. Although the previously dried-up irrigation ditches were now flowing with clear spring water again, and large clouds were casting shade in the sky, the current climate was still too dry for sowing. Therefore, after leveling the land, the flower fairies stayed quietly in their houses, waiting for the harvest month to end.
The land of sin became eerily silent.
When Bretzman mentioned using the Sky Sea to make rain, he made it sound very simple. However, when Shu Xin secretly flew to a high altitude and tried to separate the cumulonimbus clouds from the edge of the Sky Sea, she failed every time, whether it was because her elemental affinity was not enough or her spellcasting skills were not good enough.
The water element in the time capsule was full and could be used directly, but Shu Xin hesitated for a moment and finally put the bottle back in the locker.
She worried that the drought would continue after the harvest month was over. In addition to the underground lake, the land of sin could also go to the nearby Twin Moon Snowfield to melt ice for water. Now, not only did the Snow Clan provide a large amount of clean water, but there was also a Sky Sea in the sky. The situation was already quite good, but the other territories within the kingdom had nothing!
Shu Xin plans to arrange for caravans to transport water elementals to other territories after the harvest month ends, hoping to save more flower fairies...
As the magic concentration slowly decreased, the harvest month came to an end, and the worst happened: the already high temperature rose instead of falling, becoming even hotter.
After a meeting and discussion, Shu Xin decided to expand the planting area in the underground city. Since the temperature and humidity on the surface were not suitable for cultivation for the time being, they would move it underground first. The delicious mushroom cultivation techniques that Bretzman had taught them could now be tested.
So the flower fairies got busy again. Shu Xin even flew to the Sky Sea to fetch seawater from the very center of the water and sent it to the underground city for the flower fairies to water.
Although the name contains "sea," the seawater in Sky Sea is actually freshwater, and it is rich in magic. Shu Xin asked the caravan that went out to provide rescue to also bring a large amount of seawater.
Recently, Shu Xin has been busy preparing relief supplies for the caravan.
The Time Bottle is a magical artifact meticulously crafted by forbidden magicians, naturally capable of holding a large amount of water element. Ordinary containers cannot lock in water element, so Shu Xin searched through her memories and asked Bretzman for advice. She found a suitable magic circle and then began to tirelessly carve magic circles onto the grass fruit glass bottle, making one element bottle after another in a hurry.
Fill the elemental bottle with a small amount of water element, then fill the space stone with a large amount of sky and sea water, and finally pack up the freshly picked water vegetables and delicious mushrooms. This is the extra relief supplies that the caravan needs to carry when going out.
Shu Xin worked day and night to create a large number of elemental bottles, and only took a break after she had used up all the water elements in the time bottle.
Rubbing her eyes, Shu Xin got out of bed, ready to go and see the new flower fairies.
Although neither Nonori nor Pengpengan mentioned it to her, when Shuxin was so tired that she felt dizzy, she would still go to the terrace to relax for a while. Every time she looked down, she could see groups of grayish flower fairies flying over from afar like dark clouds. Guided by the patrol team, which was quite conspicuous because they were wearing bright cloaks, they flew over the southernmost agricultural area and into the land of sin.
