Chapter 687: Chapter 497: Farewell Banquet_2

The more targeted the spell, the lower the casting difficulty. This is a consensus in the world of magic, as it signifies that the magic power is more focused and its effects can be maximized.

Bishop’s spirits lifted, "This method is good. If we do this, not only will it be easier to accomplish, but the casting difficulty will also be greatly reduced. I can’t guarantee that it will be done with a first-level spell, but we definitely won’t need a second-level spell. At that time, the core will remain unchanged; it’s just a matter of adjusting the range of targets."

"Then I’ll wait for your good news," Gaven, finalizing the last issue, said, "After this area is reclaimed, focus on planting various green vegetables, especially those that come to market in the dead of winter. Plant as many as you can. If you need anything, just come to me."

"We will reclaim this area as quickly as possible and plant as many vegetables and grains as we can. For the remaining areas, I suggest planting flowers in separate patches with staggered blooming periods so we can raise bees here on a large scale. Next spring, they can be moved to the surrounding mountains or forests for continuous honey harvesting."

Bishop had his own plans. "Enlightened Trees are the best beekeepers. They can build beehives on themselves, protect the hives from being destroyed by other creatures, and carry the beehives around to follow the blooming seasons for harvesting and sealing honey."

Nectar Village is skilled in beekeeping and honey brewing; naturally, Bishop is an expert in this area. With a new method at hand, he naturally began to think in this direction, as it was an instinctive thought process.

"Good idea," Gaven further perfected, "If planting flowers, don’t just plant ordinary ones. Go for rapeseed. Not only can it be used for beekeeping, but you can also harvest rapeseed to extract the oil. It’s killing two birds with one stone."

"Lord truly knows how to make the most of everything," Bishop couldn’t help praising, "Alright, that’s settled. If we have some spare time, we may also make the clearings in the external forest bloom with patches of rapeseed."

"I look forward to the day that comes," Gaven also smiled.

Once these Druids opened their minds, they could come up with all sorts of unexpected and clever strategies.

Using Enlightened Trees for beekeeping was a clever tactic that even Gaven hadn’t thought of.

It was indeed a perfect combination.

An Enlightened Tree adorned with beehives and honey jars, moving through the wilderness with a host of bees, was an evocative sight.

But Gaven would never have his Enlightened Trees do this task. The important construction projects were already keeping them fully occupied, leaving them no energy for this.

As for utilizing Bishop’s Enlightened Trees, it wasn’t out of the question, but it would definitely be troublesome.

Since the instilled Enlightenment consciousness was different and the relationship was indirect, the best course of action was to let them prioritize the wishes and directions of their mentors.

They would only be reassigned in a dire situation.

In any event, this was also a case of "many irons in the fire", at least this Garden Farm didn’t need Gaven’s Enlightened Trees.

Moreover, the other two Pikespirit Druids were now level nine, just one step away from level ten. They believed that if they made some moves on the Garden Farm side, and managed to sell the first wave of off-season vegetables to the City of Brilliance, they would probably reach that level.

Compared to these two Pikespirit Druids, the one Gaven placed his great hopes on was Half-Moon Colt.

Her style of operation differed from that of the average Druid, closer to his own in compatibility. In her eyes, the value of sentient life was above the natural environment. Making small sacrifices and compromises to the natural environment for the sake of construction was a tolerable practice.

Furthermore, her abilities were unique, allowing her to accompany Gaven in unusual battlefields, with a leveling speed akin to riding a rocket, even far surpassing his own. She was very likely to reach level ten before the other two Pikespirit Druids, even if her level-up difficulty was higher and the gap larger.

It had been three days since the matters at Nanklept had been thoroughly arranged.

The renovation work of the Stone Stallion Inn at Anfield Village was also complete, and it was also the time for Gaven to shift his main focus away from this place.

Before that, he had one last thing to do: to hold a grand banquet at the Stone Stallion Inn. This time, however, he did not plan to invite the entire Anfield Village but two people who had been a great help to him in Anfield Village—Krewen and Mother Gao Ser.

"What’s the occasion today? Why such a grand affair?" Mother Gao Ser was as boisterous as ever.

To show his appreciation, though he was only hosting two guests, he served ten grand dishes, each one rich in color, aroma, and taste.

"Lord said that today is a banquet of gratitude to thank the two teachers for their support and care these past days. These dishes were all cooked by the Lord personally, something ordinary people can’t easily get," a Gnoll dressed in a black-and-white tailcoat said, puffing his chest and tucking in his stomach proudly.

The attire was clearly custom-made, considering the Gnolls’ distinct shape from humans.

As one becomes accustomed to seeing Gnolls with bare buttocks and tattered clothes, encountering one clad in a suit, dressed in proper human attire, was indeed jarring.

"You look unfamiliar, you must be new here?" Mother Gao Ser had an exceptional ability to remember people; even the Gnolls that looked the same to others, she could memorize their main features after just a glance, distinguishing them from a group of their kin.

"My lady has keen observation; yes, my name is Gos, it’s my first time at the inn. I was previously at the quarry, but thanks to the trust of the Lord, I’m prepared to manage this inn," Gos said, unable to hide his excitement.
