Chapter 36: Planting Fluorescent Grass

Soon, Rene arrived at the plains.

This was the plantation he had planned to cultivate.

“Oh goodness.”

When Leah reached the area, she was immediately attracted by a pile of black soil.

Rene followed, “What is it, Leah?”

Leah said excitedly, “Master, where did you get this soil from? It’s so fertile and rich!”

Hearing this, Rene shook his head and smiled. He pointed at the land and said, “This soil belongs to this land.”

“Impossible.”

Leah immediately shook her head and said confidently, “Master, don’t lie to me. The soil here is completely different from the soil over there.”

“How do you know?”

“Because I’m a Flower Elf.” Leah returned to his shoulder, “Identifying soil is a skill that Flower Elves are born with. According to my observations, that pile of soil definitely doesn’t belong to this area. Not only is it rich in nutrients, there are even earth elements flowing in it, making it an extremely rare and high-quality soil.”

“Excellent soil? Is it very valuable?”

Rene was in no hurry to uncover the answer. Instead, he asked about its purpose and value.

This question happened to be answered by an expert.

Leah, as a Flower Elf, immediately began to explain to him seriously.

“Master, the use of high-quality soil is very important. Although it is not a gold mine, it has the same value as a gold mine.”

“Ordinary plants, for example, will grow amazingly in high-quality soil. Their output will increase greatly, and their growth time will be reduced.”

“Normal wheat can only be harvested twice a year in most forests, but in this soil, it can harvest at least four times a year, and the yield is higher each time.”

“In addition, some special plants have very high requirements for soil. For example, fire trees. They need high quality soil to grow, and the ‘Fire Fruits’ they produce have the effect of increasing the perception of fire elements. They are very valuable among the Infernal Race. Legend has it that one can be sold for 1,000 gold coins.” Leah said slowly.

Her last sentence shook Rene deeply.

It was only then that he remembered that he was in a different world. The species and effects of plants could not be completely explained through his own understanding.

Good soil was not only used to grow wheat and rice, but it could also be used to grow valuable special plants.

If there was a Fire Tree Garden in the future, wouldn’t that be planting a huge gold mine?

There were also plant soldiers and plant materials.

For example, soldiers like tree spirits.

Would they become stronger in such fields?

Or maybe plants like refined steel trees.

Could they grow rapidly in the fields and produce high-quality wood like Steel Wood?

“Master, the value of high-quality soil is very high. It’s considered a strategic resource among many races. You must ensure the safety of that piece of land. When the territory is built in the future, that high-quality land will definitely bring a huge income to the territory.” Towards the end, Leah persuaded him seriously.

“Don’t worry.” Rene patted her little head and looked at a spot. He smiled and said, “Didn’t you want to know the origin of these soil? I’ll show you now.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

Rene led Leah in one direction.

There was a very small wooden house there.

When Rene arrived near the cabin, a dark figure immediately ran over.

It was the Earth Rune Mud Monster.

Previously, it was arranged to cultivate land here.

As for this small wooden house, it was the residence of a militia soldier.

Since the Mud Monster needed someone to help it cut the soil, Rene arranged for a militia soldier to be by its side.

It was four in the morning now.

The militia soldier was still resting.

When he realized that Rene had arrived, he hurriedly ran out of the wooden house.

Rene told him not to be nervous.

He then asked him to demonstrate the method of reclaiming the land.

The militia took out the machete and cut off a portion of the Mud Monster’s body.

In the next second, something magical happened.

The monster’s body that had lost its vitality turned into a pile of pitch-black soil.

The quality of this piece of soil was exactly the same as the small mound earlier.

“Oh my goodness, can soil be produced like this?” Leah was completely shocked.

She felt that her understanding had been overturned.

In Leah’s mind, soil was accumulated over countless years and was a gift of nature.

But now, such fertile soil was actually cut off from a monster’s body.

This was impossible.

She had never heard of a monster that could do such a thing.

“Could it be that Master is the reason?”

Leah looked at Rene with big, round eyes.

Only then did she remember that just yesterday, Master used his magical power to let the Flower Elves directly grasp the power of the elements and evolve into Elemental Elves!

This strange monster must have accepted its master’s evolution.

Otherwise, there was no way it could possess such a bizarre ability.

“Leah, if we turn the ground of an entire plain into this soil in the future, can you make it into a food vault?”

Following Rene’s gaze, they saw a valley basin ahead.

If he could turn this place into a piece of high-quality land, even if he only planted wheat, the output would not be lower than a small gold mine.

Leah’s eyes lit up at that thought.

As a Flower Elf, she dreamed of farming on such land.

After hearing Rene’s question, Leah’s little head bobbed like a sewing machine as she said emotionally, “Thank you, Master. I will definitely live up to your expectations.”

According to Rene, he wanted her to take over the plains.

This was great trust.

Leah, the adorable elf, was moved to tears.

“Very well,” Rene took out a bag of seeds from the warehouse and said, “Squad Leader Leah, I have a task for you. Please bring your team members to grow these fluorescent grass.”

“Yes, I promise to complete the mission.”

Leah carried the seed and went to work happily.

“Elves are so gullible.”

Rene smiled and opened his friend list.

Due to the lack of resources yesterday, he was not in the mood to check the messy information.

In fact, Rene didn’t even want to open the interface that had thousands of messages popping up every minute.

First, he filtered the private channel to search for the “clay” keyword.

As a result, a lot of information appeared.

Many people had clay of different quality.

Among the thousands of messages, Rene took half an hour to find a highly satisfactory product.
