Chapter 172172. Woody Monitoring Network, Undead Demon Plant
Semir returned with the first harvest and gifts from Baron Kmoyer.
Although Cloya didn't care much about what was happening on their side, he knew that the apprentices were obviously doing a very good job and helped Baron Kemoye gain a lot of benefits.
In this extraordinary world where great power belongs to individuals, the number of mages and knights under one's command is basically the only criterion for measuring one's strength.
Very unfortunate.
Although Viscount Bernal is a viscount, the extraordinary reserves under his command are not even as capable as those of Croix's apprentices.
His way of training those knights was more about feeding and providing them with good food and drink - this was also the current situation of most lords.
Extraordinary people are naturally superior to others, and even when they are training and exercising, they will not be too serious and self-disciplined.
After advancing to the first level, many knights would choose to seek refuge with a minor noble and then gain power and status.
Under the corrosion of these two factors, it is of course questionable how much strength can be left, not to mention that most extraordinary people would like to expand their branches.
That consumption of energy...can really drain your body.
In this regard, Croa, who possesses absolute power, is much stronger than him. As long as Croa wants, the mage apprentices and knight apprentices under him have to be obedient.
No matter how tough the training program is, they must stick with it.
In this way, over the long run, both their quality and willpower will be much stronger than the extraordinary people on the Viscount's side.
Especially... there is also a Semir who is a cheat here.
During the duel, he even used his great power to kill a second-level knight off his horse, even though he was only a first-level knight at that time.
When Baron Kemoyer saw this scene, his eyes almost popped out. He never expected that a seemingly ordinary person could be so powerful.
After seeing Croya's strength, Baron Kemoye no longer had any hesitation about joining Croya.
If his subordinates are so strong, how powerful must Croa himself be?
He directly arranged for Semir to bring back the initial harvest, which included the magic plants and monsters in his territory, as well as some things obtained from the ruins.
The reason why he was so anxious was that he wanted to prove himself, because Semiel was so exaggerated that he was a little worried that this guy would replace him.
Since Master Croa can support him, he can certainly support his subordinates. In comparison, Semir is definitely much easier to control than him.
With this in mind, he asked Semiel to bring back extra things.
Several apprentices who were taking inventory at the dock couldn't help but be amazed.
Although I have been counting the items brought back by my companions these days, Semir brought back a lot——
A group of about fifty first-level magical beasts, Cortes pigs, a group of forty first-level magical beasts, Coldhoof horses, candy rabbits, as well as Mu Yao curved vines, first-level magical plant shallow rice, and a trapped undead magical plant.
It took four or five large trucks to pull it. This was only because Semir and his friends were very capable, otherwise it would have been difficult to bring it back intact in the snow.
The list of things he brought back was quickly handed to Cloya.
After taking a quick look, Cloya ordered to raise what needed to be raised and plant what needed to be planted. These things were all level one and were not that important to him.
But it can also be regarded as a supplement to their own food reserves - pigs and rice. The former is an important source of meat, and the latter is a very important staple food.
Although there is plenty of food on Hanjiao Island at present, a little more would make his life better, which is of course a good thing.
However, what he cared about most were the Mu Yao Qu Teng and the undead demon plant.
He immediately met Semir.
"Is everything going well over there?"
The corners of Kloya's mouth slightly raised: "What stage has it reached so far?"
Semir knelt on one knee, bowed respectfully, and then looked at his mysterious and powerful wizard lord. For some reason, he suddenly felt very close to him.
Croa is now in the best golden period of his life. He has a slender and well-proportioned figure, fair skin, and a straight nose. Although his appearance is not the most handsome, he can definitely crush most people.
Magic power flowed through his light gray hair, and the gray seemed to turn into a holy and pure white. His eyes were as blue and clear as shallow water, yet also bottomless.
The owl stood on his left shoulder, and on his right shoulder were the sunflower elves, olive elves, and lotus elves crowded together, with the thirsty sea fluorescent algae surging behind them like a tide.
He was surrounded by so many extraordinary creatures like the moon surrounded by stars. He did not seem chaotic at all. Instead, he was radiating light like the sun, moistening everything silently and being everywhere.
Semir felt that in his eyes, Croa was glowing, sparkling from her skin to every strand of hair.
He was a little distracted for a moment.
The body instinctively absorbed the light emanating from Cloya to replenish the energy it had consumed during this period.
“…Ahem.”
It wasn't until Chloe coughed softly that he came back to his senses.
"Your subordinates deserve to die!"
Semir lowered his head even lower. He had no idea why he suddenly became dazed, and was staring at the lord's face.
Croix knew why.
This guy is a brand new life created by his own rock notes. Although he can survive without his magic, if he senses his magic, he will still be unconsciously addicted.
It's like the notes want to return to his symphony.
He really had no way to deal with this. This was a resonance between magical powers, and he didn't know how people who practiced this kind of meditation method in the past did it.
"Go on." Cloya nodded slightly to signal him to continue.
Semir quickly recounted in detail what had happened outside, clearly and even summarized it.
"... Baron Kemoyer should be able to resolve the Viscount's issue within a week."
"Okay, go and rest first. I will reward you together when your companions come back."
"I'll take my leave."
He bowed again and left.
Kloya was left thinking for a while, and finally shook his head. He felt that Baron Kmoye's methods were too superficial.
Even though Semir wasn't injured or anything, the Baron insisted on bringing him back. Although he said it was to transport the spoils, he could easily guess what he was actually thinking.
"never mind."
He didn't think much about it.
This piece of land is still too small. To be honest, he doesn't think much of it. There will always be a bigger stage in the future.
The bigger your heart is, the wider the world will be. If Baron Kmoyer fails to realize this truth, he will sooner or later fall behind.
He reached out and took the Mu Yao Teng and the undead demon plant.
These Mu Yao Qu Teng certainly do not have the intelligence of Mu Yao Qu Teng King, nor do they have the ability to speak casually. They are just curled up emerald green vines.
The number is considerable, with more than a hundred plants, but it seems that there are only roots and a small part of the connections, otherwise more than a hundred plants would be able to flood the laboratory.
"Baron, have you captured all the Mu Yao Qu Teng in the entire ruins?" Cloya asked the Mu Yao Qu Teng King.
"They should be. They don't have the power bestowed by Lady Ilister, so they can't be born with spirituality like me."
Mu Yao Qu Teng Wang stretched out his vines and carefully touched these small vines, just like caressing his own brothers and sisters.
As a magical beast with high intelligence, it actually misses its younger brothers and sisters.
"Then are you willing to share your spirituality with them?"
"I have an idea..."
Kloya took out the mycelium from the mushroom man and said, "I have carefully studied their network connection and can share their consciousness and spirit with other mushroom people."
"That is to say...if you can accept to live in symbiosis with it, and after my imprinting, you should be able to pass on your spirituality to these ordinary wood vines."
"I want to plant these wood vines in various locations in the North, so that you can become my eyes and help me see clearly all the changes around me."
He had this idea a long time ago. Only Mu Yao Qu Teng Wang could withstand such a complex network.
Of course, if this is done, King Mu Yao Qu Teng will have to split his complete mental power into pieces, turning them into seeds of mental power and burying them in the remaining Mu Yao Qu Teng.
The pain of tearing apart one's mental strength is a hundred times more painful than tearing apart one's physical body.
He originally thought that Mu Yao Qu Teng Wang would take a few minutes to think about it, but it didn't hesitate at all: "Of course I do!"
"Master, my only wish is to see more of this world. This is my first wish for you and it will always be my wish."
"Please start."
"good."
Kloya first added broken limbs to it, and then placed the mycelium directly into its wounds.
The Wood Star Teng King is actually a monster, and his flesh and mycelium do not have such an obvious rejection reaction. In addition, with the help of Kloya, the mycelium quickly penetrated deep into the body of the Wood Star Teng King.
Then, Croa engraved a second magic on it.
This is a fifth-level magic called schizophrenia - it means exactly what it says, it can temporarily split the mental power and place it on another object.
If you don't take back this mental power in time, it will be lost permanently.
What Kloya wants to do now is to wait until it has transferred its mental power to these mycelium, tear up the mycelium and bury it in other Mu Yao Qu Vines.
If his guess is correct, the Mu Yao Qu Teng King will be able to extend his consciousness to other Mu Yao Qu Teng in this way.
In this way, the monitoring network of King Mu Yao Qu Teng, which originally required wiring, is now directly connected to the wireless network and can be communicated through the mental network.
[Engraving completed, Mu Yaoqu Teng King (schizophrenia)]
[This demonic plant can tear apart one's spiritual power. If one does not absorb it within 24 natural hours after the tear, one will lose contact permanently.]
"It's up to you."
After engraving this magic, Croa took out the gopher harp and began to play.
Soft and gentle music flowed slowly from his slender fingertips as he sang the verses of the orange ode.
An orange halo surrounded the Mu Yao Qu Teng King, stabilizing its mental strength so that it would not collapse.
Allowing it to split its soul more smoothly.
But even with the help of Cloya's music, King Mu Yao Qu Teng was in great pain.
It is tearing its own mental power apart, which is equivalent to tearing itself into countless pieces.
Then force it into the hyphae.
To do so, one must not only experience the pain of tearing oneself apart, but also endure the discomfort of the soul entering the mycelium.
After a moment of silence, Croa chose to share some of this pain.
This decision was made because of his feelings for Mu Yao Qu Teng Wang, and also because he wanted to try out this feeling.
Maybe it will be useful in the future.
“Hmm…”
He groaned, forcing himself to adapt to the pain of being torn into countless pieces.
The whole process didn't take long.
It only takes about five minutes.
Obviously, King Mu Yao Qu Teng also knew that if this continued for too long, his mental strength would become more numb and more likely to collapse.
Finally, when it was completed, the spiritual power that had been burning like a torch had become dying, with only one percent of its original strength remaining at most.
It really split the complete mental power into a full 130 parts, exactly the same number as those Mu Yao Qu Vines.
"sharp."
Even Croa couldn't help but admire it.
This is equivalent to cutting yourself into 130 pieces.
Moreover, each of them still had consciousness, and could feel the pain of being torn apart. This added up...
Even a part of the pain was unbearable for Cloya.
"Then I'll leave it to you... I want to take a rest."
After Mu Yao Qu Teng Wang said this weakly and reluctantly, the vines drooped down limply.
The entire territory's Mu Yao surveillance network temporarily came to a standstill as it fell asleep.
"Have a good rest."
Cloya plucked the strings of the zither one last time, injected a stream of spiritual power into its body, dripped a drop of water from the fountain of life into it, and then began his work.
He grafted strands of mycelium into the Mu Yao Qu Teng, then engraved the surveillance magic eye, and finally nurtured them with his mental and magical powers.
While he was working on it, he was observing the map of the northern territory opened up by his apprentices, considering where to plant.
In fact, reaching this step is already completed.
All that remains is to wait until they grow up, and then transplant them to various corners of the outside world to play their role.
"We'll deal with this next."
After finishing his work, he put the wooden vines aside, took a sip of milk tea, and then looked at the undead demon plant.
Its appearance is really a bit scary and frightening.
