My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 578: Chapter 359: Fourteen Lord Treemen, The Forest's Defense Line (4K)

Tianyuan Territory to the east, Treeman Forest.

The trees here are becoming increasingly lush and robust, with patchy shadows and a rich aura of vitality permeating the air.

Initially, when Tianyuan Territory had just passed the Lord Trial and was promoted to an official territory, the Treeman Forest was located in the east district, occupying about a quarter of the territory, on par with the graveyard in the west district and the residential area to the south.

However, as the territory continued to develop, the southern residential area expanded, and new areas such as the factory district, plantation district, and commercial district were added.

Now, if one were to look down from above, the entire Tianyuan Territory would appear somewhat gourd-shaped, with the north district and the central area forming the two main military zones – the upper half of the gourd; while the south district, providing for the living and work of the Territory Citizens, is the bottom half of the gourd.

Breaking it down, the eastern Treeman Forest now occupies only about 5% of the entire Tianyuan City, with some buildings constructed around its periphery, such as the herbal workshop and the winery, due to the rich variety of fruits and medicinal herbs produced by the Treeman Forest.

Further afield, there stand Arrow Towers and Thunder Magnetic Coil Towers, with black city walls stretching out like a giant dragon.

The Treeman Forest is like a small forest growing within Tianyuan City, a pure land unto itself.

At most, the trees within the forest have just grown a bit thicker and taller, often shooting up to sixty or seventy meters high.

However, if one stands in the core area of the Treeman Forest and looks in a certain direction, an endless sea of trees comes into view.

Here the sky is azure blue, the trees are robust, and Azure Birds and Tai Qing Birds soar through the air, and one can also see giant and ancient trees over a hundred meters tall!

This is the real Treeman Forest!

The rich natural and plant energy drifts around, soothing the mind and body of those who enter, as if sweeping away their exhaustion.

Mu Yuan wandered, followed by a few chattering Flower Fairies who picked bright red fruits and offered them to him.

"Eat, eat?"

This fruit is just a common one, not medicinal grade, but nurtured by the precious land of the Treeman Forest, the entire fruit looks delicate and tempting.

Mu Yuan was about to taste it.

"Crunch—"

The baby-faced Flower Fairy munched the fruit, not even leaving the core behind, "If you don't eat... I will."

Mu Yuan: "…"

This Flower Fairy didn't seem very bright.

But considering that it is just a Rare Three-star Flower Fairy soldier species with limited intelligence, he could understand.

The Flower Fairy series of soldiers are the gardeners of the territory, most of them being Rare One-Star or Rare Three-star and not very high-grade.

Firstly, the Flower Fairies are not a main combat soldier species, and they are numerous, evolving them to the Excellence grade costs a lot.

Secondly, Mu Yuan found the Excellence grade form of the Flower Fairy series not quite powerful enough, low in cost-efficiency, whereas the Epic grade Nature Spirits, he had evolved several of those.

Still, despite feeling that it was not cost-efficient, Mu Yuan would still regularly grant Evolutionary Baptisms as a reward to some Flower Fairies that showed exceptional performance.

Mu Yuan called over a Nature Spirit.

"Lord, good day~"

Mu Yuan greeted her and took a look with his Lord's Eye: Oh, it's the fourth Nature Spirit 'Gan Ling'. There aren't a few Nature Spirits in the territory, and he rarely interacted with the ones that evolved later, so much so that he couldn't recognize his own Epic soldier species at a glance, truly an oversight.

But there's no helping it, there are simply too many Epic soldier species of his own after all.

"Over here is the golden rice, it's already started to grow."

"The plant here is Glazed Fruit; it's also growing well."

"And this area, mainly planted with White Sand Fruit, is currently under research and adjustment."

White Sand Fruit is a special kind of cultivation fruit.

Its insides are like a pomegranate, filled with numerous white seeds that can replace Soul Sand, allowing soldiers and professionals to absorb and cultivate.

Using White Sand seeds for cultivation doesn't necessarily speed up the process compared to using Soul Sand, but it might be more cost-effective.

Further up, there are the Green Sand Fruit and Blue Sand Fruit, and cultivation with these seeds is clearly faster than using Soul Sand.

These fruits are not very precious, but they require a quality growth environment, needing both a treasure land and special soil to ensure high yield and a small chance of producing Green Sand Fruit and Blue Sand Fruit.

As Mu Yuan's main force generals were reaching the Fourth-order Peak, he didn't have a high demand for Green Sand or Blue Sand Fruits; he valued the White Sand Fruit more.

The reason being, it was all about saving money.

He wasn't very poor, but since Soul Sand could be saved, why not do so, especially since...

A single soldier species in full cultivation required 10g of Soul Sand per day.

If three thousand people were cultivating, that would be a consumption of 30 Soul Crystals a day, 900 a month.

For ten thousand people cultivating, it would be 100 Soul Crystals a day, 3000 a month.

The latter, Mu Yuan couldn't afford to support.

Therefore, within the territory, auxiliary soldier species like the Flower Fairies seldom cultivate, with their levels primarily raised by several bouts of Heaven and Earth Baptism. If White Sand Fruit could be widely disseminated, the cost of cultivation would be greatly reduced.

Mu Yuan visited several farms and plantations, nodding slightly.

His main purpose was not to inspect the farms; at this stage, he was focusing more on preparing for war, but since he was there, he took the tour.

Stepping out of the open farm area, next door was the forest with robust trees and canopies obscuring the sky.

This place also grows many medicinal herbs and fruits, and one can even see graded medicinal herbs and rare-level precious medicines everywhere. The entire Treeman Forest is a vast treasure land, precious items everywhere.
