steel still had to be purchased from outside, and the cost was multiple times higher for importing than extracting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were any other mineral, Gaven, with a pinched nose and clenched teeth, might endure it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, since it was iron they were mining, it was particularly distressing to think about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Add to that, there were many projects and they had surged in prominence within a short time; large-scale investments had not yet begun in this area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, such a large project could not be completed overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the help of magic, years of continuous investment and construction were inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If dozens of Treants could help, it would be a great relief from an urgent difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if rails were built, they would not become obsolete, as they still involved the issue of a power source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The usually calm and tranquil Virginia could not help but let out a cold laugh, “You’re quite optimistic, thinking a hundred Gnoll Stone Shaping experts could get you fifty of my Treants?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My apologies for not being clear, not just any Gnolls, but Dragon Blood Kobolds with earth-based spell-like abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In our Dragon Oak, they are not common goods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such experts, I hardly have over two hundred in my hands,” Gaven added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then it is I who misunderstood you,” Virginia’s expression eased quite a bit, but he still shook his head, “It’s not that I’m unwilling, but the Fae Race is special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They work here entirely voluntarily, striving to protect their homeland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I were to assign them to your place, the nature of their service would completely change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if I am the Lord of the Spring Bud Forest, they might not obey my arrangement.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bucket of cold water immediately cooled Gaven’s overheated brain, only then did he remember that the other party consisted of natural beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had only considered their benefits before and not their critical weakness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These natural beings all advocate for nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are generally indifferent to various constructions, some extremists even prefer demolition to restore everything to its natural state rather than building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mining is abhorred even more, as it signifies selfish acts that damage nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To have Treants assist with his mining was far too presumptuous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was already good if they did not sabotage his mine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gaven’s disheartened appearance made Virginia feel somewhat sympathetic, prompting him, “You already have the key to unlocking a gold mine in your possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why then, would you pan for gold here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The key to unlocking the gold mine?” Gaven did not grasp what was being referred to at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enlightenment,” Virginia stated candidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t you have the Enlightenment spell?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can well enlighten trees yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, those trees you enlighten will be influenced by your thoughts and tend to align with your disposition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as you treat them well, they generally will not go against your wishes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, how could I have forgotten that?” Gaven smacked his forehead hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was in possession of the ability to animate huge trees himself, so why lust after others’ Treants?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rolling his eyes, Gaven shamelessly suggested, “If you’re reluctant to give Treants, surely you can spare those trees, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trees were not absent from the Rocklands, but mostly coniferous, high-altitude species like pine trees dominated; these trees usually weren’t very tall, making suitable enlightening subjects difficult to find.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spring Bud Forest was different—there, towering trees thick enough for a man to wrap his arms around were everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the time came, it would not be about picking generals from among the dwarfs, but choosing the best among the excellent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can search for suitable enlightening trees in Spring Bud Forest,” Virginia started, taking a turn, “for each tree, one Gnoll Stone Shaping expert—a Dragon Blood one—committed to serving Spring Bud Fortress for ten years, non-negotiable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why don’t you just rob me?” Gaven exclaimed with heartfelt grievance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lordship, I think you’ve lost your way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can such matters be measured in money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t it good for you if I enlighten more trees?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is about strengthening the forces of nature; before enlightenment, they’re just trees without wisdom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Virginia, wearing a smile, said, “This is just like you, Lord Gaven, to have taught me the principle of equivalent exchange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You enlightened them, not to serve Spring Bud Fortress, but to serve yourself, and naturally they must pay a corresponding price.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t think that only Spring Bud Forest has suitable candidates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rocklands are vast, and there are certainly plenty of them there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I absolutely refuse to accept your extortion.” Gaven decided to start with the Rocklands, spreading the Erde out to search for suitable Enlightened Trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll wait for your good news.” Virginia was certain that Gaven would come back to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because, according to his needs, he required a large number of Enlightened Trees, and the Dragon Oak Territory alone could not satisfy his demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two spoke, they had already arrived at the Yaling’s temporary camp in Tear Lake Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the Yaling could come up to greet them, Lord Virginia instantly retracted her smile, resuming her usual cool, noble air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Virginia gave a nod to the handsome male Yaling leading the group and said, “General Colin, take me to see that special guest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Colin did not move but stared at Virginia as he demanded, “Before that, would Lord Virginia please explain your recent itineraries of the past twenty days?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A lord being away from their domain and castle for a long time is a grave dereliction of duty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing such questioning, Gaven was somewhat taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A general speaking to his lord with such a tone, was he no longer interested in his position?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Although I was not in the castle, I have always been within my territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I believe that is something you should have sensed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for my activities, I don’t need to report to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All you need to know is that I have been fulfilling my responsibilities in my own way,” replied Lord Virginia, as if it was business as usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Colin stared at Virginia for several seconds before giving a nod and saying, “I trust you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just wanted to remind Lord Virginia of your importance to us, to Spring Bud Forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please don’t let love delay pressing matters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hisss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gaven inhaled sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the defiant and rebellious general was actually a man of iron-clad straightforwardness—could such direct words really be spoken?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The usually nonchalant Virginia blushed slightly, as if recalling something awkward, her expression faltering a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>General Colin had already turned, leading the two towards a temporary tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the tent, a person sat cross-legged, dressed in the simple garb of a martial monk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing his face clearly, Gaven’s muscles involuntarily tensed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jackalweres.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Jackalwere monk?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This combination was not just rare; it was unprecedented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, Gaven had never heard in his past or present life about Jackalweres becoming martial monks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, martial monks were devoted to quiet contemplation and strict adherence to various precepts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only those with an orderly mind chose this path, which usually requires a legacy to be passed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Jackalweres, with their demonic origins, were infused with chaotic powers by nature, devoid of kindness and mercy, being mad and bloodthirsty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following their desires to hunt and act recklessly was in their nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were completely diametrically opposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, this was not an ordinary Jackalwere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ordinary Jackalwere was tall and thin, with long and pointed ears and mouth, and their skin was usually greenish-gray or grayish-black, covered with fur that ranged from reddish-gray to dark yellow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jackalwere in front of him was relatively stocky, with shorter and rounder ears and mouth, broader shoulders, thicker arms, and covered in short reddish-brown fur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed less ferocious than a typical Jackalwere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a Flind, a subspecies of the Jackalwere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to ordinary Jackalweres, this subspecies was relatively smarter and more orderly, often becoming leaders or elites within Jackalwere tribes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at their core, they were still Jackalweres.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they were more orderly, it was not enough to make them become martial monks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Jackalwere monk finished meditating and opened his eyes, Gaven felt even more that he was extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eyes showed none of the cunning, brutality, evil, or madness typical of Jackalweres.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they held was serenity and calmness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had it not been for his appearance, Gaven might have thought he was in the presence of an enlightened high monk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stocky build of the Flind was relative to other Jackalweres.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Flind monk stood up, his height was still quite imposing, nearly touching the top of the Yaling’s temporary tent, at least two meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flind monk bowed and said, “I assume the two of you are the lord and lady of this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flind offers his sincere greetings to you both.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jackalwere’s common tongue, aside from a slight canine accent, was quite standard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was clear that there was a misunderstanding regarding the relationship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Jackalwere society, with dominant males and subservient females, those in power could only be males; females held sway on rare occasions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subconsciously, he presumed Gaven was the Yaling Lord he sought to meet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with this misunderstanding, Virginia didn’t seem to feel the need to clarify, addressing Flind directly, “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flind, why don’t you just tell us in detail the message you’ve brought us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.” The Jackalwere monk seemed to accommodate the height of Gaven and his companion by sitting cross-legged again, speaking at their level, “I understand that Jackalweres have a very bad reputation among other races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hope you won’t judge me by my appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I swear on the name of my foster father that what I’m about to tell you is the truth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Virginia replied indifferently, “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flind, speak your mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether we believe it or not, we’ll make our own judgment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very well.” Flind let out a sigh and said, “I don’t know if you’ve heard of the Black Reaper.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Black Reaper?” Gaven’s expression changed slightly as he inquired, “The Jackalwere war band known as the Black Reaper?”\u003C\u002Fp>",2079,"2026-06-06T12:33:11.058Z",1,"novelbin.me","c0431ef0bb093f44ea5802beae6de290fe05569fc57b9bbfdae282244c9eba43","farming-in-a-parallel-world-and-becoming-a-god-chapter-209","farming-in-a-parallel-world-and-becoming-a-god-chapter-172",2384,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-in-a-parallel-world-and-becoming-a-god-cover.jpg"]
