Chapter 333: Chapter 290 Agricultural Inventory_2

With this farm, why would I bother with so many schemes?

I can simply crush my opponents with overwhelming combat power, right?

The Elf Princess and Emily were both bewildered, not understanding why Lette suddenly became so excited.

"Rosadina, go and fetch that old lady for me immediately! I have some important questions to ask her!

Hurry, it’s a matter of life and death for the Elf Empire!"

The princess was taken aback, unable to see the significant crisis in agricultural production.

"Oh-oh-oh! I’m going right away!"

She turned and ran towards the farmer’s room, quickly returning with a gust of wind, bringing back the old lady Monare.

"Granny, this is Mr. Lette, our military advisor of the Elf Empire. He has a few questions for you."

"I know, I’m familiar with him."

The old lady smiled at Lette: "I’ve heard your lecture."

Hearing this, Lette awkwardly chuckled, knowing his words couldn’t fool this thousand-year-old elf lady.

"I’m sorry to have embarrassed you."

"No, I appreciate it and like it very much. The Elf Clan has been content with complacency for too long.

Sigh... Young man, ask whatever you want.

In this Elf Empire, nobody understands these crops better than I do."

Lette pointed to one of the mist-spraying magic plants: "Granny, may I ask, can the spray force of this thing be increased?"

"No!"

The old lady immediately responded, and Lette furrowed his brow, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Too strong and it will damage the magic potions. Some of the potions are very delicate..."

Lette staggered, almost being thrown off balance by the old lady.

"Cough cough, granny, that’s not what I meant. I’m not using it to grow magic potions. Just the spray power, can it be increased?"

"Oh... that’s possible, as the force can be adjusted."

"What’s the maximum force? Can you demonstrate it?"

The old lady nodded slightly, forming a magic array with one hand, projecting it onto the magic plant.

The magic plant then turned in direction and with a swoosh, it shot a water blade, cutting a mast the width of a bowl in half.

The water blade didn’t lose its force, ramming into the side of the building, leaving a fist-sized dent in the wall.

The princess and Emily both gasped, their eyes suddenly filled with excitement as they looked at the magic plant.

Lette was very excited, pointing at the magic plant.

"Granny, can this plant spray anything else besides water? Like wind blades! Or the Fireball Technique! Or rock cones?"

The old lady immediately shook her head firmly: "Of course not! It’s meant for spraying water only."

The Elf Princess didn’t mind at all: "That’s fine too!"

But after barely managing the earlier situation, Lette carefully asked.

"So, granny, if I wanted one that sprays wind blades, or fireballs, is that possible?"

"Why not? It’s just a matter of setting it up during its growth period. But once it’s grown, it can’t be changed."

The Elf Princess was trembling with excitement, and Emily covered her mouth.

Lette nodded repeatedly: "Great, great, the technology tree is hidden deep. Granny, how fast does this magic plant grow?"

"Naturally, it takes about a year."

"What about with human intervention?"

"With enough magic power, about a minute."

The old lady smiled slightly: "Life Magic catalysis speeds it up quite a bit."

"So... in the Elf Empire, are there many such magic plants?"

"If you want to know about this... then hold on."

The old lady pointed towards her dwelling, and a thick, dictionary-like ancient book flew from her room, landing in Lette’s hands.

"The answer you seek is in there."

Holding the hefty book, Lette quickly asked: "Is... this all the information on magic plants?"

"No!"

The old lady pointed to the ancient elven text on the book’s cover: "This is the directory of the Magic Plant Compendium.

The actual content is all stacked in the Life Leaf Library in the capital of the Elf Empire.

After all, if it were all here, I couldn’t possibly hold it.

The material piles up quite high!"

Emily glanced at the dictionary-thick directory, swallowing nervously before asking.

"Granny, how high is the material?"

"About three to four stories high."

Lette licked his lips, shaking the book towards the already stunned Elf Princess.

"I’m just saying, how do you elves manage to live like this with so much wealth?

Such a beautiful start, turned into a stalemate... can you not play unless you’re at a disadvantage?

In some ways, this is quite the pinnacle!"

Rosadina covered her face: "No, don’t ask me. I’m a bit confused myself now."

"Confuse yourself later, right now, immediately! To the library!"

Lette tossed the hefty book to the Elf Princess, then bowed to the old lady.

"Thank you for your explanation, honorable lady. You’ve solved a big problem for the Elf Empire."

Lette quickly boarded the carriage with the two ladies and headed back towards the capital.

They traveled swiftly, taking half the time it took to get there to return to the Elf Palace, not even stopping as they headed straight for the Life Leaf Library.

Once they arrived, they ran into Lilith, who was just exiting.

"Huh! Weren’t the three of you out inspecting farms in the countryside, assessing the Elf Empire’s military potential?

Why are you back so soon?"

"What potential, what assessment, potential nonsense!"

Lette brandished the book thick enough to knock someone out, shouting arrogantly.

"When you’re poor, use tactical penetration, when you’re rich, blast them! Lilith, I’m frighteningly strong now!"

"What happened? What did you guys run into out there? Emily! What’s going on here?"

Emily, just as excited, said: "Sister Lilith, it’s too complicated. No, it’s too simple.

Ah, I can’t explain it clearly.

In short, come with us and you’ll see."

She then pulled Lilith’s hand and entered the library with her.

Miss Enchanting Demon was speechless: "Hey, hey, I just came out from there."

"By the way, Sister Lilith, why did you come to the library so early?"

"Cough cough... I came to check on Siris’ research on the Dragon Slayer’s Lament, to see how it’s going. After all, it’s a rare Holy Artifact, with a strong deterrent effect on the Dragon Clan.

Leaving it in the hands of an outsider for research, it’s hard to feel at ease."

Lilith spoke vaguely, and Emily appeared to understand, not pressing further.

The suspicion regarding Siris was known only to Lette and the others, and they hadn’t informed the neighboring Elf Princess.

Since her relationship with Siris was quite close, it was better to avoid unnecessary troubles.

As soon as Lette entered the library, he began flipping through the book, finally focusing on the seventh to the eleventh floors.

Not bothering with the usual library rules, he leapt directly to the eighth floor.

After a cursory inspection, Lette confirmed the old lady’s words.

The place was brimming with Elf Clan records and data on modifying magic plants, reaching four to five stories high! All of it!

"This is great."

Lette dropped the directory on the ground, looking at the newly reassured Elf Princess.

"If these materials are utilized properly, forget about a mere Human First Empire.

As long as the Divine doesn’t intervene, and the Holy Light Church doesn’t meddle.

The Elf Empire could potentially stand against the entire Human Grand Alliance with the strength of a single nation."

Lilith gazed at them bewildered: "Really, what are you all talking about? Is it that exaggerated?"

Emily gestured excitedly: "Magic plants, elves can cultivate offensive magic plants."

Lilith, indeed a conceptual level strongman, understood immediately with just a few key words.

"The Elf Clan, had such a powerful clandestine weapon hidden away?"
