A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Ding! Congratulations! You have analyzed a 'Light-type magic item'. This item can be combined with your magic building—the 'Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council'—to produce new amplification effects.

The new amplification effect produced is—the coverage area of your Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council will be expanded again by 100%, reaching 2 kilometers.

Ding! Congratulations! You have analyzed a 'Nature-type magic item'. This item can be combined with your magic plant—the 'Holy White Oak'—to promote plant growth and the fusion of natural consciousness fragments within it, and produce new amplification effects.

The new amplification effect produced is—your Holy White Oak will directly grow to a height of one meter in a short period of time. This will allow you to gain the allegiance of the 'Holy Tree Knight Order', and because the Holy Tree Knight Order has noticed that your Holy White Oak is filled with more natural aura and is growing vigorously, they will send a batch of troops to support you.

And on the morning of the 2nd day, a dialogue box appeared in front of Shen Mu.

[Writing here, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network → 𝖙 𝖜 𝖐 𝖆 𝖓 . 𝖈 𝖔 𝖒]

"Oh, is the analysis complete?" Shen Mu gently rubbed his face, sat up from the bed, and reached out to take a glass of pre-prepared cold boiled water from the bedside table, gulping it down to completely awaken his spirit with the icy taste.

This is very good. Originally, he hoped to obtain new amplification effects by analyzing these two magic items.

Now that the Mount \u0026 Blade system has completed the analysis.

He, of course, rightfully obtained brand new special effects related to the two categories of Light and Nature.

Moreover, the Light-type can directly act on his magic building, the Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council, directly expanding the range again by 100% to reach a range of 2 kilometers.

You must know that before, the area covered by the Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council was only a little over 1 kilometer.

Now, an expansion of 100% is equivalent to doubling the coverage area.

The effect is already very good.

"In that case, it means that my Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council can produce effects within a range of 2 kilometers, and within the range of 2 kilometers, everything belongs to my Dertherim."

Shen Mu nodded lightly, his face becoming more and more satisfied.

Although it seems that the range of 2 kilometers is not much, you must know that this is a circle with 2 kilometers as the standard. As long as it is within this 2 kilometer range, all undead rules and undead monsters will continue to be attacked by the holy light and expelled by the holy light.

This means that within this 2 kilometer range, his Dertherim can move freely, even at night.

Moreover, this also means that his Dertherim can reclaim more land on a large scale within this 2 kilometer range to carry out planting. Although the surrounding fields of Dertherim have already been reclaimed, after all, as the current population increases, the amount of food required by Dertherim also increases. It is impossible to rely solely on the power of faith to accelerate the growth of caravans and a small number of farmlands. This is equivalent to quenching thirst with poison.

It is better to reclaim more fields and let them grow freely, just like natural rules, grow slowly, and then harvest slowly. This is in line with the normal development law and can meet the needs of more and more people.

Now that the range of the Holy White Torch Tower of the Holy Light Council has been turned into 2 kilometers, it means that Shen Mu's idea can be successful.

"And I have to think of a way to carry out terrain transformation if I can open the magic orb, that would be even more convenient. After all, there are so many apartment buildings and residential buildings around, and the area they occupy is also large. Destroy them all and bury them underground to turn the surface back into arable land. This is the right thing to do."

At this time, Shen Mu came to the window, drinking the water in his glass, and looking at the towering dilapidated Blue Star native buildings, his face showed some helplessness.

In the past, those dilapidated Blue Star native buildings, such as skyscrapers, residential areas, and apartments, provided a lot of space for Blue Star humans to hide. After all, like small grids, as long as a fire was lit in the small square rooms, they could hide inside without being discovered by undead monsters.

At that time, these Blue Star native buildings seemed to be the rules of Blue Star itself, still trying their best to protect these Blue Star humans.

But now Shen Mu has developed, and he no longer needs these Blue Star buildings.

Or rather, Shen Mu, a native Blue Star human, has been replaced by Shen Mu from Earth, and has become a strong man under the Mount \u0026 Blade rules who can protect himself.

Talking about the protection of Blue Star rules and Blue Star native buildings to him, there is not so much deep emotion.

After all, Shen Mu does not need these native male buildings that have begun to hinder his development. What he has to do now is to quickly demolish all these buildings and turn them into vacant land, which can not only develop agriculture and animal husbandry, but also allow his cavalry to launch a stronger impact in this plain if enemies attack.

Simply put, the current Mount \u0026 Blade rules have been able to replace the Blue Star rules. At least in this area, the Blue Star rules can no longer keep up with its development speed.

"Besides, I can't be considered a true Blue Star human myself, and I don't have such a strong vision for maintaining the Blue Star world. Besides, even those local humans don't have any desire to maintain the current Blue Star world, so what am I worrying about here?"

Shen Mu felt a little ridiculous at this time, couldn't help but smile, shook his head, turned around and retracted his gaze.

Then he opened the door, nodded to the Holy Tree Knight who was still standing guard at the door, and walked towards the 1st floor, and said, "Notify the halflings in the kitchen to start preparing breakfast."

"Understood." A Holy Tree Knight nodded immediately, and then quickly walked down the stairs ahead of him.

He went to the kitchen to notify the halfling cooks to prepare breakfast quickly.

When Shen Mu arrived at the restaurant on the 1st floor, the staff had already brought up the prepared breakfast.

"Respected Lord Shen Mu, today's breakfast is sweet pumpkin sauce with white bread, and there is also a flavored lamb leg stewed with honey, flour, and lamb leg, and finally a bowl of borscht as a soup." The halflings respectfully brought up these foods. Although there are not many, they are quite exquisite. It is also enough to prove that they have put in a lot of thought.

"Very good, thank you very much." Shen Mu nodded, then picked up a knife and fork and began to feast on the food on the plate.

Furthermore, the culinary skills of the halflings were quite impressive, leaving him very satisfied.

Every time he savored the delicacies prepared exclusively for him by these halflings in the morning, at noon, or in the evening, and even sometimes as a late-night snack, it was one of the reasons he remained in a cheerful mood.

As for the patrolling and guard duty soldiers outside, they usually ate food made by the other soldiers themselves.

Although there was meat, plenty of vegetables, and bread.

But the taste was definitely not comparable to that of the halflings.

Halflings are renowned culinary masters even in the Spirit Realm. Although they are not skilled in combat, their taste for certain aspects of life and their pursuit of art are almost indistinguishable from those of high elves.

Moreover, high elves disdain cooking, so the halflings' culinary skills are unmatched even by high elves. In the entire Spirit Realm, all races with a sense of taste adore these halfling chefs.

Now, being able to have these halflings as his personal chefs, of course, made him very happy, and all of this was thanks to Lyanna.

The little druid he had known from the very beginning.

"Lord Shen Mu, Lady Lyanna wishes to request a meeting." Just as Shen Mu thought of Lyanna, a Holy Tree Knight walked over.

"Lyanna wants to meet with me? Very well, let her come over then."

Shen Mu nodded, agreeing to the meeting request.

"Understood."

The Holy Tree Knight saluted and then left, soon leading Lyanna in.

"Lord Shen Mu."

Lyanna came before Shen Mu and respectfully performed a salute.

She placed her hand on her chest and bowed, just like the soldiers did.

This also indicated that Lyanna had indeed learned the proper etiquette.

"Yes, no need for so much ceremony, Lady Lyanna, you and I are old friends."

Shen Mu smiled, looking at Lyanna, who was still wearing a black robe, holding a vine staff, with a delicate little face that was somewhat pale. He showed a joyful smile: "Speaking of which, we have spent the most time together, and we met at the very beginning."

"Thank you for your kindness and generosity, which has allowed me to live a wonderful life under your protection until now."

Lyanna's little face was also flushed as she bowed respectfully to Shen Mu again.

Just as Shen Mu had said, they had indeed spent a long time together.

At least in Lyanna's impression, Shen Mu had rapidly developed from a solitary figure at the beginning into the powerful human lord who now ruled Deherim, which was quite astonishing to her.

Even so, Shen Mu did not have any ulterior motives towards Lyanna, a girl who could be considered an eight out of ten in terms of beauty.

He also strongly supported her research into the Druidic heritage.

He didn't even interfere with her life and work usually, and he entrusted her with the important task of illuminating magical plants, which could be said to be the deepest expression of trust in her.

That's why Lyanna was so respectful to Shen Mu.

"What brings you here this time?" Shen Mu asked with a smile.

"It's like this, esteemed Lord Shen Mu. When I was maintaining the Holy White Oak just now, I suddenly discovered that the Holy White Oak possessed more abundant natural power. It seemed as if it had received a gift from the consciousness of nature and was growing rapidly."

Lyanna knew it was time to get down to business, and she said with a smile on her face: "If I'm not mistaken, it should grow to a meter in size within a week, and as it grows taller and stronger, the natural aura it releases will become more and more intense, and it will promote the accumulation of natural energy in the water source near it and in the area where Deherim is located."

"What does this mean? I don't quite understand."

Shen Mu frowned, still a little confused by these academic terms. After all, he was not a druid, and he didn't have much understanding of the concept of spellcasters.

"Oh, it's like this. It means that as long as the Holy White Oak grows to one meter, it will be able to release more natural power, adding some natural energy to the water source. Drinking it will relieve fatigue and restore energy and physical strength, and even irrigating farmland with it will allow the plants in the farmland to grow more luxuriantly."

Lyanna said, and then continued: "Moreover, as long as this natural aura appears in the air and its concentration increases within the scope of Deherim, the natural power possessed will also increase, which will make everyone feel refreshed and less prone to illness, and even accelerate the growth of various plants."

"So, in general, it means that drinking the water will relieve some fatigue and exhaustion, enhance mental and physical strength, and within the scope of Deherim, the growth rate of plants will be faster."

Shen Mu summarized.

"That's right, that's exactly it, esteemed Lord Shen Mu."

Lyanna nodded, her face quite happy. After all, as a druid, she understood that this meant that the power of nature was expanding, growing, and strengthening.

Moreover, precisely because the power of nature was increasing, the treatment she enjoyed in this Deherim would also continue to improve with the increase in the power of nature.

Of course, the treatment Lyanna was talking about was not the treatment Shen Mu gave her. The treatment Shen Mu gave her was already very good. It was safe, had research guarantees, and allowed her to level up.

The treatment she was talking about was actually that the consciousness of nature was gradually recovering, and then, through the growth of natural power, this credit would be attributed to Lyanna.

This would allow Lyanna to obtain more Druidic heritage and more Druidic insights.

This really made Lyanna quite excited and happy.

"That's not bad either."

Shen Mu smiled and nodded to Lyanna: "Then you should take good care of the Holy White Oak during this time. When it grows to about one meter, come and tell me."

"Understood, I will take good care of the Holy White Oak with the 100 Holy Tree Forest Guards."

Lyanna also nodded excitedly, and after saying a few more words, she left here.

Compared to reporting to Shen Mu, she preferred to stay by the Holy White Oak's side.

This really had a good promoting effect on her Druidic heritage.
