Chapter 295 (2/2)

That could be an earth-shaking project with great difficulty. More importantly, Sui Xiong knew nothing about the background of this ancient god, so he didn’t dare to take immediate action.

A god who had died such a long time ago and could still consistently generate strong negative energy so much that it contaminated the vast forest—that god must be unimaginably powerful. How dangerous would his corpse be? How many powerful gods would be envious if Sui Xiong moved his corpse? How would Sui Xiong deal with his corpse then? These were all big problems.

Sui Xiong had asked Javier, a resourceful and strategic man, to find the background of this ancient god. Javier was an expert in wine, food and enjoying himself. He had been a regular guest at various celebrations and maintained a good relationship with all the gods—except for the God of Plague and others like him. He had gotten along well with conservative gods from order keeping systems, brutal and violent gods from the evil system, and even fancy and wired gods from the chaos system. At least three-quarters of the gods in the Pantheon temple had dined or chatted with him before.

Although no news came from him until now, Sui Xiong believed that Javier would figure out everything of that ancient god sooner or later.

At that time, Sui Xiong would call all his friends together and do something astonishing!

But that day was still far away; it would be perhaps fifty or one hundred years from now, maybe even longer. He could wait slowly with endless life, but those ordinary people couldn’t wait that long.

So, he had to make another plan.

For over half a month, Sui Xiong wandered around in Pyroxene Town. By observing the lives of ordinary people, he tried to figure out their needs and thought of how to improve their living standards.

If he had hair, he would have lost most of it in just the past half month, making himself almost bald.

Sui Xiong’s meditation was rewarded at last. One day, when he was hiding out in the mine and watching the miners work hard, he finally found inspiration.

A few hours later, he found Felix and took out a design to show him.

“What a big project!” Felix studied the design carefully and admired it.

It was indeed a big project, as Sui Xiong was planning to dig four inclined tunnels out of Pyroxene Town and plant special mushrooms there. The underground temperature was high to maintain the growth of special mushrooms. With the growing and reproduction of special mushrooms, the concentration of negative energy in the surrounding area would decrease. Then it would be time to dig a deeper tunnel nearby to plant special mushrooms there and harvest the mushrooms had planted before to refine the magic essence of negative energy. Repeated in this way, it was equal to building an artificial vein of negative energy essence out of Pyroxene Town.

Over time, when these underground veins develop into a deep position, there would be more eastward construction. Then the crisscross planting zone of special mushrooms would form the huge Underground Vine Zone.

At the technical level, there was nothing difficult in this idea; it just needed a lot of manpower. Since the cultivation of Golden Vine did not take up much manpower, and Pyroxene Town still had many skilled miners, it would be easy.

But the investment of this “artificial vein” was relatively high, and it would take a long time from start to harvest. Without sufficient financial resources, there would be no way to support the plan.

And even if it succeeded in providing special mushrooms, there were still risks in harvesting these special mushrooms for they contained a lot of negative energy. Furthermore, after the harvest, the special mushrooms couldn’t be refined by ordinary people. They would require magicians of a high level and adequate magical manpower.

Fortunately, these were not problems for Pyroxene Town because it was building a magic school.

“It’s a good plan. With enough magical manpower, the whole Ash Forest will be transformed into a huge vein of negative energy,” Felix commented. “I think… Your Majesty, you really have found a way to revitalize this dark forest of death!”

Sui Xiong scratched his head with his tentacles and smiled happily.

Although it had not solved the grain problem, with reliable financial resources, the revival of Pyroxene Town would be able to happen faster!
