Don't call me evil god

Chapter 163 Hugo: Do ​​you think I’m stupid?

The honeydew melon seeds were purified and Bill carefully buried them shallowly in the soil that had been loosened and plowed in advance.

No water source was found in the Misty Valley, but there was a small river not far from the outskirts of the valley, and they had been getting water from the river during this period.

Water to nourish the soil that is suffering from dryness.

Bill concentrated his mind and made a special gesture, trying to control the unity of spirit and flesh as he had practiced in the past few days, until he felt a familiar feeling and hurriedly chanted the corresponding prayer:

"Guardian of the rotation of the four seasons, blesser of the growth of all things, may you shower down the delicate nourishment of spring rain, care for the land, and enable it to thrive!"

As the prayer for the harvest magic was completed, a magical scene appeared.

The honey melons that were still seeds a few minutes ago sprouted new buds and broke through the soil at a speed almost visible to the naked eye. The seedlings swayed in the breeze in the valley, and tender green leaves continued to grow on the stems and branches. Soon, they were crawling lushly on the ground!
Fruits and vegetables that would normally take nearly 4 months to mature, under the catalysis of the harvest magic, completed more than a month's growth process in just a few minutes!

Bill carefully kept his movements still and chanted the corresponding prayer for the divine spell again.

"The guardian of the four seasons..."

The effect of the magic was slightly weakened this time, but when the effect faded, clusters of flowers slightly blooming could be seen between the leaves!
The third time the harvest magic was cast, a round, yellowish white melon with a sweet aroma appeared in front of everyone!

"Success!"

Bill excitedly picked up the white melon that he had accelerated to grow using the harvest magic, and his eyes were filled with tears of excitement.

Although he felt a tingling sensation in his head due to excessive energy consumption from releasing three divine spells in a row, his mental excitement made Bill simply ignore the pain.

The reactions of the other believers who were originally farmers were similar, each one more excited than the other.

In the past, the magic of the God of Harvest had nothing to do with them. They could only use the most stupid and tiring method, working from sunrise to sunset, working hard for half a year, and praying that no monsters would attack the village and farmland before they could wait for the harvest.

With the God of Knowledge, even the poorest farmers like them can master the magic of the God of Harvest after working hard!

Divine magic can speed up the growth of crops. It can be used on a single crop like Bill did to quickly ripen it.

It can also be used on a piece of farmland, and the acceleration effect will be evenly distributed and diluted.

But no matter what.

Using divine magic to assist in farming, their hard work will be greatly reduced!
You only need to put in half or even less effort to get more products.

The more important point is.

The Altar of Creation gave them delicious bread to fill their stomachs, relieving Bill and his friends of their worries.

There is no need to grow wheat as hard as in the past.

This gave them the opportunity to try fruits and vegetables like honeydew melon, beets, grapes, apples, peas, and more!

The reason why they could only grow wheat in the past was simple: it was the most practical grain and could be sold whenever it was harvested. Grain seeds were easy to obtain and easy to grow.

Not only are vegetables, fruits and melons difficult to grow, but once they cannot be sold, they will quickly rot and spoil. By that time, they won't even be able to find food to store for the winter.

There was no choice before.

After arriving at the Misty Valley, they had the power to choose!
Farmers no longer farm simply for survival, but for life, a better life!

The labor for survival will make farmers painful and numb, but they have to work hard day after day;

It’s different for life.

After confirming the effectiveness of the harvest magic, the believers in the valley were aroused.

They are off to find more seeds to plant!
"After a while, we will not only be able to eat bread, but also fresh vegetables and fruits, and even fruit wine made from grapes and apples!"

Old Bill couldn't even imagine how good their life would be in this new home in the future!

...Hugo Xiwei couldn't even imagine how badly the refugees he "rented out" would be experiencing in the dark forest.

Adventurers and mercenaries who go in may be carried back with broken limbs, not to mention ordinary people, especially refugees who have been hungry for a long time and have weak constitutions.

Therefore, when the goblin Hugo saw Pete and the other two appear in front of him, he was not surprised.

There were exactly 30 of us when we crossed the border, forming a huge team.

After 11 days, only 3 people came back.

Perhaps they encountered some terrible monster, and the number of team members was wiped out.

"Please grief."

Hugo comforted him with a sad face:

"The Dark Forest is full of dangers. Losing your companions is inevitable. Just be positive."

Then he continued with a sad face:
"You've been away for more than seven days, so the rent cannot be refunded!"

Pete's mouth twitched.

Obviously, Hugo misunderstood something!
Seeing that only three of them came back, I thought that the others had died in the dark forest.

"Um... you misunderstood." Pete tried to explain to the other party: "We didn't lose our companions. They are all alive and well."

"I can tell you directly now."

"In fact, we have opened up an unowned territory outside the border and have successfully eliminated the monsters nearby and blocked their attacks."

"They didn't come back with us because they needed manpower to build the territory, so they stayed behind."

"They're not dead, really!"

Hugo immediately looked up at Pete with an expression that said "Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Border expansion? Are you expanding the unowned territory in the Dark Forest?"

"Your Excellency, do you think that anyone can successfully establish a territory here that will not be overwhelmed by monster attacks?"

Pete was helpless.

He knew this would happen.

The border was being opened up to unowned territory, and it was outside the eastern border of the Kingdom of Reyak. No one would believe him even if he told the truth.

He decided to prove himself with practical actions:

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. The point is that we came back to find you because we have a business deal to discuss with you."

When Hugo Sivi heard that there was business coming, he immediately became excited.

"Your Excellency, please speak!"

In his first business deal with Pete, he was able to earn 25 gold and 11 silver after deducting the money paid to their beneficiaries!
Not only did we earn back the money we invested in building shabby houses here and buying food for the refugees, we also made a lot of money!

Hugo naturally attaches great importance to the new business coming from a big client.

"We plan to entrust you to recruit another group of refugees!"

Hugo: “Huh?!”
