With the food problem solved, it's time for some strategic all-in moves.
The billion units of food obtained from the elven ruins were converted into currency in the market long ago when Ling Ye expanded his farms and ranches.
At a ratio of 1:3, billion food units were converted into 500 million magic crystals.
Adding that to the existing 800 million, Ling Ye now has billion+ magic crystals.
All-in, immediately all-in.
[Magic Crystals -1 billion, Dragon Breath Demons +800,000]
[Magic Crystals -300 million, Dragon Hunting Hunters +240,000]
With this, Undying City's forces reach million. (Number of legions in the paragraph comments)
Strength increases by a small factor of .
Next, Ling Ye continues to check other rewards.
Three divine equipment chests, all opened.
[Staff of Eternal End]: HP +80,000, Magic Attack +30,000, Cooldown -20%, Equipment wielder's stats +100%, Additional trait: End of Destruction. When activated, all damage dealt by the wielder *1000%.
[Boots of Shadows]: HP +80,000, Double Defense +8,000, Speed +20, Equipment wielder's stats +100%, Additional trait: Shadowless. Movement speed +300% for 3 minutes, cooldown 10 minutes.
[Aegis of Life]: HP +100,000, Double Defense +10,000, Physical and Magical Attack +10,000, Equipment wielder's stats +100%, Additional trait: Life Aegis. Generates a life shield every 72 hours. After being killed, it can negate life deduction, stacking up to 3 times.
All are good items.
Staff of Eternal End, a mage weapon, with an additional trait: damage *1000%.
This trait is somewhat similar to the SSS-grade Staff of Destruction currently used by Keliya.
However, the Staff of Destruction has a 5% chance to trigger the destruction effect, dealing 1000% damage.
The Staff of Eternal End, on the other hand, deals 1000% damage every time.
So, in terms of strength, the Staff of Eternal End is superior.
Undying City's magic users include Ling Ye, Keliya, Qiao Na, and Nalisha.
Ling Ye, as the lord, does not participate in battles.
Keliya already has the Staff of Destruction, so she can continue using it for now.
Nalisha's positioning is more inclined towards support and control; dealing damage is not her primary role.
Therefore, the Staff of Eternal End goes to Qiao Na.
Next item, Boots of Shadows, greatly increases movement speed, perfect for Louis Aisha.
As a knight, she lacks speed the most.
Third item, Aegis of Life.
This piece of divine equipment is quite interesting.
Its additional trait is to negate life deduction.
Although Ling Ye's 'Resurrection from Ashes' trait can affect both the lord and heroes,
being killed still results in life deduction.
It's just that after the life is cleared, he will repeatedly jump between death, a two-and-a-half-minute countdown, resurrection, death, a two-and-a-half-minute countdown, and resurrection.
Until the remaining life is greater than 1 second.
So, Ling Ye cannot die, but that doesn't mean there is no threat of death.
The Aegis of Life can negate life deduction, which is still of considerable help to Ling Ye.
It generates a life shield every 72 hours, stacking up to 3 times.
Combined with Resurrection from Ashes and life-extending methods such as Longevity Fruits,
under these circumstances, Ling Ye is truly immortal.
The Aegis of Life goes to Ling Ye.
There are still several SSS-grade equipment chests left.
But Ling Ye is not very interested.
Open them all; keep what's useful, and put the rest in the warehouse.
Next are the unique weapons.
Currently, Ling Ye has unique weapon blueprints *15, Divine Weapon Cores *2, unique weapon essence *17000+.
Ling Ye decides to continue upgrading his 6-star level 30 Dragon Breath Staff.
[Divine Weapon Core -1, Unique Weapon Blueprint -7, Dragon Breath Staff upgraded to 7 stars.]
[Divine Weapon Core -1, Unique Weapon Blueprint -8, Dragon Breath Staff upgraded to 8 stars.]
[Unique Weapon Essence -16800, Dragon Breath Staff upgraded to level 37.]
The 8-star level 37 Dragon Breath Staff has a bonus of 80%*37=2960%.
Adding the Trident of the Sea God 100%, the 'Strength in Numbers' trait 377%, the Druid temporary 100%, and 5 SSS-grade professions 1000%.
Totaling 4537%.
An additional times the stats.
Deservedly the trump card legion.
At this point, all the rewards that needed to be digested have been dealt with.
Only the last item remains: the Elven Mother Tree Seed.
A divine item, absolutely the most precious item from the elven ruins trip.
Found a spot in the upper right first quadrant of the Lord's Hall and directly planted it.
Like the Demon Vines, planting the Elven Mother Tree also requires materials.
Fortunately, Ling Ye has killed countless monsters during this time.
Plus, with the guaranteed drop trait.
The warehouse and backpack are already filled with various materials.
After a brief search, everything is gathered.
[Plant Essence -1 million, Pure Dew -1 million, Fertile Soil -1 million, Natural Power -1 million, Moonwell Water -1 million, Elven Mother Tree planting successful.]
Inside the pit where the seed was buried,
a sprig emerges delicately.
Seconds later, Ling Ye, looking at the so-called Elven Mother Tree, which is only 20 centimeters tall and has only a few leaves, falls into contemplation.
[Elven Mother Tree]: Growing... Estimated to grow into an adult in 10,000 hours.
Ling Ye is speechless, numb.
"Damn, here we go again."
Just like the previous Demon Vines.
It needs 10,000 hours, a total of 417 days, to grow into an adult.
Where is Ling Ye going to wait 10,000 hours?
Can't wait even a little bit.
Directly use a time scroll to accelerate.
[Time Scroll -10,000 hours, Elven Mother Tree grows into an adult.]
As the mechanical sound falls,
only the creaking and groaning of roots can be heard.
The ground beneath Ling Ye's feet visibly cracks and bulges.
Thick roots plunge fiercely into the interior of Undying City.
At the same time, the Elven Mother Tree sapling, which was only 20 centimeters tall,
instantly grows rapidly.
Height, ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters...
Trunk diameter, one centimeter, one meter, ten meters...
Even the crown, like a large broccoli, spreads out over Undying City.
With a diameter of over 2000 meters.
Although not as large as the one in the core area of the elven ruins,
it is still a behemoth.
[Elven Mother Tree]
[Grade: Divine]
[Level: LV1, Food Production Bonus: 100%]
[Longevity Fruit: The Elven Mother Tree will absorb the essence of the sun and moon, bloom and bear Longevity Fruit. The grade is random. The higher the level, the greater the chance of bearing high-grade Longevity Fruit.]
[Mother Tree Shield: The Elven Mother Tree is the guardian of the territory. When the territory is attacked, it can conjure a shield covering the entire territory with a durability of 10 trillion. It takes 1 hour of cooldown to reopen after being shattered.]
[Leaf Blade: Elven Mother Tree leaves fall and turn into leaf blades to cut down incoming enemies.]
[Upgrade: Plant Essence 1 million, Pure Dew 1 million, Fertile Soil 1 million, Natural Power 1 million, Moonwell Water 1 million, Time 20,000 hours.]
Strong!
Too strong!
Strong to the point of being wicked.
The Elven Mother Tree actually has a food production bonus.
Currently at 100%, and it applies to all farms and ranches throughout Undying City.
Originally at 200,345,000 food production.
With the Elven Mother Tree's blessing, the farms and ranches have a bonus of 950%, and food production has increased to 223,915,000.
A full increase of over twenty million.
Ling Ye's million troops consume 66,060,000 food daily.
This means that Ling Ye will have 150 million+ food remaining every day.
Converting that into magic crystals at a ratio of 1:3, that's 50 million magic crystals for free every day, comfortably wicked.
And this is just the level 1 Elven Mother Tree.
Continuing to upgrade it will further increase the bonus.
In addition, the Elven Mother Tree has three traits.
First, it can bear Longevity Fruit.
That's right, the Longevity Fruit that can increase lifespan when eaten.
Such a large tree, bearing several thousand, tens of thousands of Longevity Fruits at a time, is very reasonable!
And this Longevity Fruit thing has a limited number of uses for each lord and hero.
But Ling Ye can sell them!
This is Longevity Fruit! A fruit that can directly increase lifespan.
No lord would ever take it out to sell.
But what if Ling Ye can take it out?
Wouldn't that be a direct sell-out?
Definitely a blockbuster!
Ling Ye seems to see a massive amount of magic crystals waving at him.
