Chapter 843 (2/2)
He took two deep breaths and he felt his racing heart slon
”What does His Majesty want me to raise? Worms?
”Besides is this the big secret he warned me about? At the foot of the North Slope Mine is a concealed horrible nonhuman entity?”
His Majesty see Prius on the shoulder he said, ”This is Miss Pasha She used to be a well-renowned lady Although she's been cursed by demons, which is why she looks the way she does now, deep in her heart she's still human There's no need to be afraid”
”La Lady?” Prius was startled and took a moment to come to himself
”Exactly” The King sighed ”Come, ith me and I'll tell you the details”
That's when Prius heard an unbelievable story There were o, they lived in the Barbarian Land and even built their ons, but they failed to resist the combined invasion of demonic beasts and demons Most of them died in the wilderness, only very few escaped to the Western Region The demons' curse turned them into monsters and made them immortal, which meant they had to live forever with that pain Now, Roland took in those survivors They would becoainst demons, as well as the subjects of Graycastle
”I understand,” Prius murmured
”But, as you can see, their looks can easily give people a negative first-impression, so I have to keep it top secret and only very few have been told” Roland stopped for a while, his eyesight freezing ”If you speak of this, you know the consequence”
”I'll keep h this odd neas rannies' mouths, he did not intend to dispute how much was truthful He would believe whatever His Majesty told him That was the fundamental conduct of a loyal official
”Glad to hear that” His Majesty nodded
With the blob uide, the party passed through a long aisle She then turned back and said, ”Here we are”
In front of Prius, there was another huge cave The bleak underground space was suddenly full of movement Despite the unprecedented plants and cavernous view, the huge worh to keep his attention
Prius found that much stimulation, over a short period of time, had desensitized him
”Is this what I need to raise?”
His Majesty see Prius the entire ti, ”That's right It's called a rubber worm Its secretion is a widely used industrial s The expedition teaht it back Unfortunately, it could only live underground, which is why it has been left to the survivors from the Third Border City to take care of” At this point, Roland suddenly changed the subject ”I heard in order to feed the chickens and ducks, you raised earthworms?”
”Essentially yes” After quite soht ”I can reduce the poultry's foraging area, which will subsequently enable therow faster”
”These wor method, but the nature of the two” Roland kicked a rubber wor on a round, then, dragging its huge belly, it crawled off into the thick grass ”They're not aggressive; their favorite food is mushrooms They are massive, but they are passive, so you won't be bitten The only thing you need to do is regularly collect the mucus in their bellies”
”Mucus?”
”Have you seen a milk cow? The point isn't the cow, but what the cow produces”
”By collect, do you mean, squeeze it out?”
”It'd be best if you could find a way to harvest it” Roland sently, ”However, like I just said, the worm itself isn't important Sometimes it's faster to kill the worm to collect the mucus Afterall, their reproductive speed is much faster than a chicken or a cow”
Prius suddenly shi+vered, for no clear reason he got the impression that His Majesty did not like the vital worms
As this thought flashed through his mind, in the blink of an eye, Roland returned to his usual tone, ”Written in this notebook are some of the habits of these worms” He handed Prius a booklet, with a cowhide hardcover ”You can read it for reference and coe Then see if you can find ways to row faster and collect mucus easier I wish to see what you accomplish by next month”
”Yes, Your Majesty” Prius sed hard and took the booklet, as he inquired, ”How am I to do this on my own”
”The First Army stationed here will assist you,” Roland said with a smile ”Work hard and there will be a place for you in this year's Award and Honor Ceremony”
