This Holy Knight is So Despicable!-Chapter 332 - 290: Thorough Investigation of Agriculture

Under Lette’s meticulous planning, this special banquet was successfully concluded.

As long as these mercenary leaders are stabilized, the Elf Clan’s war plan can proceed in an orderly manner.

Otherwise, it would be like rushing ducks onto a perch.

By that point, it could not only cause unnecessary casualties, but there might even be a potential for disaster.

Now, there is no need to worry about these issues at all.

Therefore, early this morning, Lette, along with Elf Princess Rosadina and Emily, went to the outskirts farm of the Elf Empire to check on the crops’ growth.

For an average Human Empire, the state of crops relates to the army’s food reserve issues.

But for the large Elf army, crops are not only for food and fodder, but also essential raw materials for magic scrolls, Magic Potions, and other strategic supplies.

Lette’s confidence in initiating a war lies in two things: the generally superior individual combat skills of the Elf Empire and their capability to produce military supplies.

The Elf Clan, with their low population and fertility, lacks the ability to generate a massive army in a short time.

But with their mastery of Life Magic, they possess the ability to rapidly produce military scrolls and compounds!

When troops are insufficient, supplement with firepower!

If the effectiveness of a magic scroll cannot surpass an opponent’s soldier,

then add another magic scroll and two bottles of Magic Potion!

If that’s not enough, add a set of magic devices inscribed with Magic Patterns!

War, at least in its early stages, is about using one’s strengths to exploit the enemy’s weaknesses. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

As long as one seizes the initiative, they can further expand their achievements and keep snowballing.

Many wars are like this, where the gap in power between the two sides isn’t significant, nor were there fatal errors from the lost side.

But just from the start, they were at a disadvantage and stayed on the back foot until their complete failure.

Agriculture supports the Elf Empire in their snowballing strategy.

Even if the First Empire is initially overwhelmed by the Elf army’s full firepower, they will definitely fight back fiercely.

The Elf Clan must withstand this counterattack to stabilize their gains.

And their reliance is firepower! Greater! More! Longer-lasting firepower!

Lette knows his ancestral fear of insufficient firepower has resurfaced.

But who cares! Let’s not treat it!

Let the firepower be fiercer!

The carriage moved swiftly; shortly after leaving the city gates, they stopped at a farm.

With the Elf Princess leading, Lette and Emily disembarked, meeting the farm’s manager, an elderly Elf matron over a thousand years old.

Lette was surprised to see an Elf full of white hair and wrinkles for the first time.

"Granny Monare, we’re here to see your farm!"

"Your Highness Princess, your visit is an honor for this old one. Take a look at the farm as you wish. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

This old one will answer everything I know without reservation."

"Granny, you can continue to rest; we’ll just take a look ourselves."

After sending Granny back, the Elf Princess led Lette and Emily towards the farmlands.

As she watched the granny’s retreating figure, Emily curiously asked, "Your Highness...

How is this huge farm managed by just one granny?"

Rosadina smiled slightly, "Because in our farm, a skilled Elf can handle it all."

"Just one person? Such a large farm..."

Emily didn’t finish her words before the scene before her left her shocked.

Next to the farm was a colorful flower field, planted with the magic plants most commonly used to craft Magic Potions.

The vast medicine field indeed had no one around, yet it operated in perfect order.

Vines spread across the field ridges, spraying mist towards different areas.

Some magical potions need extremely cold environments, while some plants require periodic soil turning and fertilization.

Despite such varied needs, all the magic plants on the same plot were perfectly attended to.

And creating these special environments, taking care of the magical potions, was managed by specially modified magic plants.

Under magical manipulation, these magic plants acted like high-tech precision instruments, nurturing every plant in the field accurately.

Even in the distance, in the wilderness, different magic plants worked together, completing the entire process from clearing land to planting, fertilizing, and watering.

Not far away, under the control of the magic plants, matured magic crops were being harvested and neatly placed in designated storage areas.

Lette scanned the entire farm, and after a while, slowly uttered a word—fully automated intelligent machinery?

"No, no, it’s not intelligent machinery, it should be magic plant automation.

My goodness, you Elves have some impressive tricks.

You use magic plants to grow magic plants, right!

And you’ve realized integrated planting, cultivation, and harvesting!

No wonder a single Elf can manage the entire farm, it’s already fully automated.

Good, good!

When I visited the Life Leaf Library a few days ago, I found it odd and wondered if your technology tree was skewed.

Now I’m certain!

It’s not just skewed; it’s practically blazed a new trail!"

Lette leaned on the fence at the edge of the farm, eyes gleaming as he gazed at the vast farm.

"A miscalculation! I should have come to see this farm first!
