Chapter 359: Mushroom Ranch
Myconian Ranch, this is the new name that Elise gave to the square tower where Alvin grows mushrooms.
It has to be said that the creatures in the main material world do not have any literary fanciful preferences, and their names are all given directly.
Ivan also suggested calling these square towers "white towers where you can see many little people circling around you after eating", but Iris and the dark elves collectively rejected the idea with a roll of their eyes.
The Fungus Ranch not only produces the fifteen-foot-tall giant ones as food, but also picks some normal small mushrooms within the range allowed by production.
Of course, these mushrooms do contain a small amount of toxicity.
But in the eyes of the dark elves with maxed out magic resistance, these toxins only make the mushrooms taste better.
But how could Alvin know this? Or rather, no one had ever reminded him to pay attention to this.
So after tasting the dark elves' unique mushroom soup with great interest, Alvin fell to the ground and watched the little man spinning in circles for half the night.
"Nemia...did you do this on purpose..."
Iris looked at Ivan who was lying on the ground, covering her forehead helplessly.
"Your Highness! How is this possible!
I just thought you would remind Ivan like you did to Xiling and Lian before..."
"Huh? Why should I remind him?"
"Isn't Mr. Ivan your guest?"
A certain dark elf who was about 1.4 meters tall was a little timid in front of Iris.
She really didn't know that humans would have such a big reaction after eating underground mushrooms.
There is no problem at all with the orc next to him!
Even now, I am still stuffing food into my mouth...
Putting aside Alvin who was looking for the little people to play with, the efficiency of the dark elves after mobilization was so high that even Lian was amazed.
In less than half a day, with the collaborative work of nearly five hundred dark elves, two of the ten square mushroom-growing towers had been filled.
At this rate, it is estimated that in another three to five days, the filling work of the mushroom ranch will be completed.
This is not because the dark elves are so worried about food shortages, but because the city of Mosobre where they were previously living has a system similar to a military management system.
As long as it is an order issued by God, it must be completed as quickly as possible.
Whether you need to eat and sleep during this period is not important at all.
Whether it was to Rose the Spider Queen back then, or to Eilistraee now, once the dark elves place their faith in the gods, they will become absolute fanatics.
This is also the biggest reason why most of the dark elves were finished after Rose was killed.
Therefore, dark elves are also a very rare race in the entire plane that divides social classes or residential areas according to beliefs.
For example, the group currently in Breath of the Moon Sea had previously betrayed their faith in Rose for various reasons, or they were once followers of Eilistraee;
In the Underdark, in the west far away from Mossoban, it is said that there is a group of drow who believe in the dark goddess Shar and have built a giant city that is no less powerful than Mossoban.
Of course, this so-called "huge" is only relative to the size of the elves' cities.
For example, the largest city of the Moon Elves, the Elven Courtyard, has a total population of only 30,000 people and covers an area of less than 2,000 acres.
The city of Mozoberan is smaller than the Elven Courtyard...
So when Alvin started to work on the city design and walked around the large cave under the Moon Sea Breath, he even felt that this so-called city could not even catch up with some fake universities on Blue Star.
This city, which has been under construction for more than 30 years, is actually not rational in its layout.
Although the construction time is not short, due to the long lifespan of elves compared to other races, the construction progress of these black dwarves in 30 years is estimated to be completed in less than half a year on Blue Star East University.
Judging from the city's boundaries alone, these dark elves living underground have never built normal city defenses.
The naturally formed outer edge and entrance of this cave serve as the natural defenses of the dark elves.
The city of Mossobre where they lived before was itself a vertical super-giant cave with less than ten natural corridors at the top and bottom.
As long as the troops are stationed to guard the few entrances and exits, the city defense will be completed.
But the shape of the underground cave of Breath of the Moon Sea is like several large bowls turned upside down on the ground and connected on all sides.
The height in the middle of the bowl is basically between eight hundred and one thousand feet.
The heights of the surrounding areas range from ten feet at the shortest to fifty feet at the highest.
This cave is completely connected to the surrounding underground space.
Therefore, in order to improve the city's security level, these dark elves had to imitate their distant relatives on the surface and start building city walls.
Of course, the problem of dark elf city defense is far more than just the city walls.
This includes the lack of full-time soldiers as full-time city defense forces, the lack of unified defense weapons, and all battles, big and small, relying on divine magicians to handle, and yet this group of people are also responsible for other government affairs of the temple and the city.
In short, the mess Elise left behind is innumerable.
It is hard to imagine how these dark elves have survived for so many years in a place like this nuclear explosion ruins...
“No, I understand that the diviner is the creature closest to your Lady Iris;
I also don’t deny that the divine magicians are powerful;
But you can't completely abolish the military forces composed of ordinary professionals!"
After waking up, Alvin sat in the town hall, staring at a row of dark elf sorcerers.
"That's it!"
A half-elf who was as tall as a dark elf nodded in agreement seriously.
“And look for yourself at the record of abnormal deaths over the past few decades.
Being bitten to death by an intruding petrified lizard, being chopped to pieces by a passing swarm of sword spiders...
Uh... kidnapped by a lustful gray dwarf...
Do you classify a life worse than death as an abnormal death?"
Nimia, who had been listening to Ivan's lecture like a chick pecking at rice, finally found an opportunity to speak.
She raised her head bravely, and all her original maturity and composure disappeared.
"But, Mr. Ivan...
This is the underground world... Isn't the underground world full of dangers?"
"That's it!"
A half-elf who was freed by his mother and could finally cause trouble for his brother-in-law echoed this indiscriminately.
"Clam?!
You just allow these crises to continue?"
Ivan was somewhat speechless and threw a stack of documents heavily on the table.
"On average, there are about 30 to 50 abnormal deaths every year!
At this rate, it would only take less than a hundred years to wipe out this group of dark elves..."
