Chapter 7: God-given object
The rain had stopped.
The few hundred people of the fox tribe came to the edge of the wasteland and began to reclaim the land.
"The land here is so fertile!"
A fox person said happily.
This vast wasteland, after being burned into ashes by Lin Yan, the exposed land was indeed terrifyingly fertile.
Under the wasteland, there was a thick layer of black soil.
The vegetation covered on top was all burned into grass and wood ash, and these ashes were mixed with the soil layer after being drenched by the heavy rain, making the wasteland even more fertile.
The fox tribe leader stood on the edge of the wasteland, looking at this boundless wasteland.
This wasteland, which was originally full of poisonous insects, was indeed a God-given land!
This was already the edge of the orc kingdom, and no orc tribe was willing to come to this barren land, but unexpectedly, because of a fire from the great Lord of Flames, the barren land was turned into a thousand miles of fertile soil!
It was indeed a big move that only a god could do!
"There is too much land here, we can't use so much at all, come here."
The fox tribe leader said.
Two fox people walked up.
The fox tribe leader said to one of the fox people: "You go and notify our tribesmen scattered in other tribes, let them all come here."
"Yes, tribe leader."
That fox person left in a hurry.
The fox tribe leader took out another letter and handed it to the other tribesman: "You quietly sneak back to the main tribe and hand this letter of mine to the leader of the Gray Fox tribe, remember, don't be discovered."
"Yes!"
That fox person took the letter and left.
"Mother, are you planning to persuade the Gray Fox tribe to move over too?"
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling, wearing a veil, walked up and said softly.
In her hand, she was also holding a basket.
"Yes, the living conditions of the fox tribe are too harsh, the territory was originally very small, and most of the land was occupied by the Black Fox tribe, leaving only remote and barren places for other tribes, the Black Fox forced all fox tribes to believe in a dark evil god, the situation of the Gray Fox tribe is no better than ours."
Speaking of this, she paused and said: "All gods hope to have more believers, if we can find more believers for the great Lord of Flames, we can also receive more favor!"
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling nodded, then walked towards a piece of land that had been circled out.
"Saintess, have you found the God-given object?"
The fox tribe leader asked.
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling said softly: "Yes, mother, this is the God-given seed given to our fox tribe by the god, all our tribesmen will not have to go hungry in the future."
While speaking, she had already arrived at the land that had been plowed into ridges, took an oval-shaped fruit from the basket, cut it into two halves with a knife, and then buried these two halves of the fruit into the soil.
The fox tribe leader looked at the fox woman Sister Qing Ling curiously, not knowing what she was doing.
Although the Continent of Gods is vast, with many people and gods, technology is not developed.
This is certain, magic is developed, technology often cannot keep up, and besides, neither humans nor gods have any intention to develop technology.
For those with powerful strength, becoming a god is the most important thing.
For gods, expanding believers, enhancing divine power, and building their own divine kingdom more solidly is the most important thing!
Therefore, there are not many types of food on the Continent of Gods, still mainly rice and wheat.
Because of the favor of the gods, many countries have favorable weather, and all four seasons are suitable for food growth.
Coupled with the fact that the church sends special mages from time to time to use magic to carry out large-scale pest control on growing crops, and even directly use magic to urge growth, the food production on the Continent of Gods is extremely high.
The gods in the sky all know that the number of believers is the key to their strength.
And believers come from a larger population.
That requires ensuring the supply of food.
Without enough food, population growth is out of the question.
However, with the population growth of various countries, food is still scarce and in short supply.
The situation of humans is a little better.
Like the orcs living on the edge of the continent, many orc tribes are often hungry.
And the fox woman Sister Qing Ling received the revelation of the "Lord of Flames," personally went into the forest, looked for half a day, and finally found the "God-given object."
That was actually a few potatoes!
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling carefully cut a few potatoes into two halves and then personally planted them on the raised land.
These two potatoes were found after she followed the god's guidance and personally took people into the forest for half a day.
Potatoes have not yet attracted attention in this world and are often shoveled away as weeds.
In the eyes of many aristocrats, how can things that grow in the soil be eaten?
Even orcs don't know that this thing can be eaten.
However, since it is the god's guidance, it must be right.
So throughout the process, the fox woman Sister Qing Ling did it very carefully and meticulously.
And on the side, the fox tribe leader and several fox women also watched very seriously.
Finally, a few potatoes were all planted.
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling squatted in front of a planted potato, stretched out her slender hands, and then muttered something in her mouth.
Immediately after, a small flame shot out from her small hand.
She pressed her hand into the soil, and the temperature of the soil there began to rise.
Seeing this scene, the fox tribe leader's face showed a look of surprise and joy.
"Qing... Saintess, has your magic power awakened?"
The fox tribe leader couldn't help but be surprised.
Mages are quite noble, and not many orcs can use magic.
They are not born for this.
Not many gods are willing to protect orcs.
Many orcs believe in savage gods, and these orcs are almost all muscle men who only have brute force.
Only priests among the orcs can use some magic.
However, fox people are a bit special; the spiritual power of fox people is stronger than ordinary orcs, and the spiritual power of some fox people is not inferior to humans.
But even so, the number of fox people whose magic power has awakened is pitifully small.
Now looking at the fox woman Sister Qing Ling, she has clearly awakened her magic power and become an apprentice-level mage.
Although it is apprentice-level, for orcs, it is already quite remarkable.
This is something many orcs cannot do in their entire lives!
So, as soon as the fox tribe leader's voice fell, the surrounding fox women looked at the fox woman Sister Qing Ling with envy.
Becoming a saintess is really remarkable!
Unfortunately, there can only be one saintess, and she must be the most beautiful and holy woman in the tribe, and they are not as good as Sister Qing Ling.
"If I could go to the temple to be a priest and become a servant of the god, that would be good too!"
Some fox women thought secretly.
And on the ground, the fox woman Sister Qing Ling said softly: "Yes, mother, I received the blessing of the great Lord of Flames, awakened my magic power, and became a Level 2 magic apprentice!"
While speaking, she provided a suitable temperature for the soil with flames and then injected magic power into it.
Just over ten seconds later, in the soil, a sprout broke through the ground.
And then, it grew higher and higher!
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling actually learned to use magic power to urge the growth of plants!
However, her methods were still very low-level.
She used magic power, not magic.
If she used magic, the effect would be better and the consumption would be lower.
In the church of any god, there will be special mages who go to different places from time to time to do this kind of thing.
Those mages can often urge the growth of crops on the entire piece of land at once!
This is also one of the means for gods to manifest miracles and consolidate faith.
At the same time, it can increase food production, killing two birds with one stone.
Under the magic growth of the fox woman Sister Qing Ling, before long, the sprout grew higher and higher.
However, she had just become a magic apprentice, her magic power was limited, and her small face soon became a bit strained.
"Eh, this saintess of mine is a genius."
On the cliff, Lin Yan, who was watching the situation around with the Eye of Investigation, said lightly.
One blessing from the virtual godhead allowed her to awaken her magic power and become a Level 2 magic apprentice; the fox woman Sister Qing Ling's magic talent is quite powerful.
Lin Yan pondered for a moment and sent some magic power through the virtual godhead.
After the fox woman Sister Qing Ling became a saintess, the virtual godhead had already recorded some of her physical information, and it was completely possible to do such a thing through the line of faith.
Although he didn't have magic power, the power of faith could also be converted into part of the magic power.
Not as exaggerated as the ratio of over one hundred thousand to one for converting into divine power, the ratio of converting faith power into magic power, especially apprentice-level magic power, is quite small, and even 1 point of faith power can be converted into many points of magic power.
On the ground, the fox woman Sister Qing Ling was feeling that her magic power was exhausted, when suddenly, a burst of magic power came from nowhere, instantly replenishing her magic power.
Even her mage level increased by several levels because of the impact of this high-quality magic power.
"The god saw me!"
The small face under the fox woman Sister Qing Ling's veil was full of excitement.
Then, she was full of motivation.
Magic power was continuously injected into that potato.
"Okay, wait another day, it should be mature."
The fox woman Sister Qing Ling said.
Even with magic growth, crops still have a natural growth period; after general mages urge growth, the natural growth period left for crops is generally from five days to half a month.
And the fox woman Sister Qing Ling was eager to show the preciousness of the God-given object, so she only left a short day for the natural growth period.
