Chapter 2174 A New Ally: Raising Monsters!

"You guys are really fierce, to be able to do this. You can't do this without some strength," Gu Luoxia complimented.

Zhuge Lingyuan waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Miss Luoxia, there's no need for formalities. If you're willing, we can help you."

Gu Luoxia nodded and bowed earnestly, saying:

"In that case, I'll see what my two older brothers are capable of."

Under Gu Luoxia's guidance, Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan found a fruit tree.

After that, it was just a matter of copying the same method as before.

Soon the gray fog around the fruit tree was dispelled, and the fruit tree, which had been withering, began to revive.

Seven days later.

When the first batch of fruit ripened, Gu Luoxia couldn't wait to take the fruit to her townspeople to try.

As expected, the fruit was very effective, and since the population of Luoxia Town was small, the fruit from just one tree was enough for them to eat.

but.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan still helped Gu Luoxia grow three fruit trees.

With these three fruit trees, the town of Luoxia can basically stabilize.

Next.

Gu Luoxia also told Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan how to build these magnificent buildings, and how to build them in a way that saves time, effort and materials.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan both obtained some useful information from Gu Luoxia.

However, this information still has absolutely no connection to the source of this gray fog disaster.

Unless the root cause of the disaster is addressed, these current strategies are merely a means to survive.

Next.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan returned to their respective towns.

They're expanding the town. The rocks and sand are fine, but the biggest problem is the fruit trees.

Timber requires felling fruit trees, but Lin Tianhao knew very well that these fruit trees were extremely valuable, even though they could be replenished the next day…

"Forget it, let's take one step at a time."

Based on the information Lin Tianhao gathered from Gu Luoxia, the construction project was practically a dead end.

For ordinary buildings to expand the town's area, the town's population needs to increase accordingly.

But if the town's population increases at the same time, does that mean that more fruit will be needed and fewer fruit trees will be available for felling?

on the contrary.

That is to build magnificent buildings, which do not require an increase in the town's population.

However, the small population of the town means a shortage of labor, and the construction of magnificent buildings requires more materials, which is a limitation.

He needs to break this limitation.

"Could it be that the reason the casually dressed woman and the refined young man are refusing to cooperate is because of resources?"

Based on the information Lin Tianhao currently has, the biggest problem if he wants to expand the town is resources.

He is not too far from the towns of his allies, and if they also want to expand, it means that they will need to compete for resources.

Fruit tree resources, in particular, are of paramount importance.

When people can help each other, everyone is happy.

But if mutual help requires sacrificing one's own interests, then it's a different story.

Let's not think about these things for now.

Lin Tianhao secretly shook his head. He still felt that they should expand the town first and then deal with the nearby fruit trees after that.

Next.

Lin Tianhao's Sweet Town has entered a period of rapid development.

Collect materials, construct buildings, and expand the town's area.

Lin Tianhao also actively participated, and with the townspeople's bodies strengthened by the fruit, the process went exceptionally smoothly.

Sweet Town is growing bigger every day.

A month later.

Sweet Town has finally covered its first fruit tree, which is a good start. Next, it will be able to cover other fruit trees one after another.

And this time.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan met several times and discussed some issues.

They are quite far from Gu Luoxia's place, a full 300 kilometers away. This distance makes it very difficult for them to compete with Gu Luoxia for resources.

The most likely explanation is that they might have disagreements with each other over some issues.

Finally, the two made an agreement, drawing a boundary between their two towns and allocating resources between them.

Even so, neither of them has actually developed that far yet, and they don't need to travel that far to obtain resources.

After defining the boundaries, Lin Tianhao continued to develop his Sweet Town in an orderly manner.

After Lin Tianhao's Sweet Town and Zhuge Lingyuan's Romantic Town got on track, Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan continued their exploration.

They all knew exactly what their purpose was.

Only by addressing the root cause of the disaster can we pass the test.

at the same time.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan both wanted to know what kind of impact cooperation between players would have in this level.

So far, Lin Tianhao has not found any negative effects from cooperation between players.

The following three months.

Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan found three more towns one after another.

These three towns were all quite far from their own, and none of them were opposed to cooperation. After a brief conversation and some initial probing, Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan reached an agreement with the mayors of the three towns.

From the mayors of these three towns, Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan also learned a useful piece of information.

That means the monster can regenerate.

However, one must stay in a town without gray fog for forty-nine days and must not die.

Actually, staying for forty-nine days is not a particularly difficult thing.

The real problem is ensuring the monster doesn't die in the town for forty-nine days.

However, this is one direction. The fruit has already made the townspeople stronger. If we can evolve all the monsters and let the townspeople eat some of the monsters' flesh and blood, wouldn't they gain an even greater boost?

After confirming the news, Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan returned to Sweet Town and began to raise the monster together.

The monsters were extremely ferocious. Under the control of Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan, these monsters did not cause any damage. However, the problem was that after leaving the gray fog, the monsters' aura became weaker and weaker.

Following the instructions of the town mayor who had previously mentioned this method, Lin Tianhao continuously fed the monster fruits that had been corrupted by the gray mist, hoping to keep it alive.

However, the process was not as smooth as expected. The monster refused to eat Lin Tianhao's food at all and completely rebelled against him. It seemed that being raised by Lin Tianhao and Zhuge Lingyuan was a great humiliation for it.

However, this was only the beginning. After half a month, the monster seemed unable to bear the torment of hunger and began to eat the fruit that Lin Tianhao had given it.
