Chapter 16 Elements Create Organisms
Some people may be wondering why Ren Lian Lingyi would lament that farming is good when the pirates were destroyed during their attack.
Ren Lian Lingyi is a very rational monster. After all, he is the mobile phone's Tsukumogami. It is unreasonable for him to be irrational. It can even be said that Ren Lian Lingyi is more rational than emotional most of the time after his rebirth.
In the eyes of the rational Ren Lian Lingyi, the seven countries ruled by the seven gods of Teyvat are extremely powerful and stable.
Moreover, according to what Ren Lian Lingyi learned from the memories of Xumi scholars, the Seven Gods are all obvious templates of wise rulers.
Moreover, the seven gods have the military power to suppress a country, and the relationship between the seven gods is said to be very good.
In this way, the overall environment of the seven countries will be extremely stable, and there will be no major conflicts among the seven countries. Although it may be impossible to eliminate corrupt officials at the lower levels, the number of corrupt officials and incompetent people in the seven countries is definitely very small.
The pirates of Inazuma are a unique product of the Inazuma region, just like the wine of Mondstadt, the merchants of Liyue, and the mercenaries of Xumi.
Most of these pirates came from Qinglai Island and Haigi Island, which were recently conquered by Inazuma.
Umi Island was conquered five hundred years ago, and Umi Omikami had his head chopped off by a single blow.
The Coral Palace, representing the official power, has surrendered to Narukami and established the local Narukami Shrine, but the general belief of Umigi Island is still their Umigi Daimikami, and the leader is still the current human god priestess of the Coral Palace lineage.
In addition, the land of Kaigi Island is barren, so many people usually go out to sea as pirates.
The situation on Qinglai Island was similar. Three hundred years ago, a powerful thunder elemental creature, a powerful monster (demon-level) named Thunderbird, caused chaos on Qinglai Island. Then this Thunderbird was shot dead by an arrow from Inazuma's strong man in the center of Qinglai Island.
It is said that this arrow broke the originally integrated Qinglai Island into pieces, which also led to conflicts between Qinglai Island and many Inazuma islands. Many people from Qinglai Island rebelled against the shogunate and became active in the world as pirates.
Because of Qinglai Island's excellent local shipbuilding technology and large amounts of high-quality timber, the pirates of Qinglai Island are well-known throughout the continent of Teyvat.
These pirates are active in the Dark Outer Sea, Inazuma Inland Sea and Sumeru Sea all year round, and occasionally even go to the waters of Mondstadt and Liyue.
So among the pirates there were also some criminals from other islands of Inazuma and people from other countries.
According to what Ren Lian Lingyi learned about the composition of the pirates, most of the pirates were warriors, craftsmen and criminals , and there were very few farmers and merchants.
Even the people on Qinglai Island, where the environment was harsh, and Haiji Island, where the land was scarce, were the same; few farmers joined the pirates.
However, Lian Lingyi had actually guessed this a long time ago. He guessed that there must be merchants behind these pirates helping to sell the stolen goods and farmers providing logistics.
Compared to those businessmen who might be caught for selling stolen goods, it is obvious that farmers who only provide logistics secretly are much safer.
Of course, the most dangerous people in this entire industrial chain are pirates, followed by merchants, and finally farmers.
That's why Ren Lian Lingyi felt that farming is better, after all, being a farmer is not in much danger.
As long as you farm well, you will have income.
And the most important thing is that there is no problem selling food in the continent of Teyvat. It is feasible to sell it to pirates or merchants.
Liyue, ruled by the God of Precious Gold, purchases all kinds of grains all year round. Anyone who sees the value of the golden Mora can know the value contained in it.
Mora is needed to forge weapons, cast spells and rituals, and even for daily consumption.
Therefore, Inazuma's violets, rice and various seafood are exported all year round in order to exchange for enough Mora from Liyue.
Ren Lian Lingyi purified the evil spirits in the earth veins and obtained some theoretical knowledge of swordsmanship, gunmanship and navigation, as well as a small amount of combat theory knowledge, which was provided by the elite among the pirates. The long period of fighting made them subconsciously sum up various killing skills and combat knowledge.
But unfortunately, a lot of skills have become blurred, and even most of them have disappeared, leaving only the theoretical knowledge to be acquired by Ren Lian Lingyi.
After receiving these gifts, Ren Lian Lingyi prayed silently, hoping that they would not become pirates in their next life. Wouldn't it be better to go to Liyue to be miners, go to Mondstadt to be hunters, or return to Inazuma to be fishermen and farmers? In short, they should not be pirates.
However, Ren Lian Lingyi was a little skeptical whether there was a system of reincarnation in this world.
After all... when he was exploring the earth veins, he often found some memory crystals and soul fragments left by heroes from ancient times deep in the earth veins.
These heroes come from all times and regions. There are not only those from the current Seven Kingdoms era, but also those from the godless country of Kanreya, those from the Demon War period, some mysterious tribes, and some from even earlier periods than the Demon War.
There might be something wrong with the roots of this world. Lian Lingyi, with a gnashing face, continued to stick his butt out and observe the activities of the grass slime.
The root problems of the world have nothing to do with him. Anyway, he can come back to life, hehe.
It just so happened that because of the recent activities of these grass slimes, Ren Lian Lingyi discovered that the grass element in a small area of grass had become very rich, so Ren Lian Lingyi prepared to draw the energy of the earth veins to see if he could create grass slimes or grass crystal butterflies.
Thinking of the blade that he was going to make, Lian Lingyi simply sat cross-legged on the grass and began to concentrate on mobilizing the energy of the earth veins.
"What are you doing?" Takeda's shrine maiden, Kano Anko, suddenly appeared.
She appeared because she sensed the abnormal flow of earth energy.
She didn't have this ability before, but after spending a whole year with Ren Lian Lingyi, one day she was suddenly able to sense the flow of the earth veins.
"You scared me." Ren Lian Lingyi's seal was crooked, but fortunately it was just a self-suggestion seal and did not involve elemental power.
"I am studying the birth of elemental creatures and need to use some earth vein energy."
"Tsk~ Isn't it just to study the birth of grass slimes? I said there's no need to put so much effort into it. When those large grass slimes are attacked with great force, they will condense into a group of small grass slimes."
"By chance we have one here soon?"
The large grass slime that was happily absorbing grass elements suddenly felt cold all over. It looked around and after discovering Anko Kano, it quickly escaped underground.
The small grass slimes around also followed suit and burrowed underground.
"Tsk, these things are getting smarter and smarter." Anko Kano said unhappily.
"Hmph, don't scare them. Low-level elemental creatures aren't just slimes. Aren't those crystal butterflies counted as well?" Ren Lian Lingyi said. Although he was sure that with the heaviness of the earth veins, it would definitely be slimes that came out, but didn't he have to find a way to change the subject ?
Otherwise, if he was discovered secretly training slimes, his job as the Lord God would be difficult in the future.
After all, the monsters in this world really kill people, and a small fire or lightning slime can easily kill an adult.
A large slime can easily kill a lone novice adventurer or novice mercenary.
