The Age of Gods: My Entry is Updated Daily

Chapter 36 The Eagle's Breath

"How many people do you have? If you're short of pills, just go buy them..." Lin He replied simply.

In his view, given the human race's reproductive characteristic of having only one child per year, coupled with the effects of neonatal death, consanguineous marriage resulting in deformities, and plagues and diseases, the population would at most grow to tens of thousands in sixty years.

Even with everyone mobilized for war, the daily training elixir consumption wouldn't be too high, and Lu Sheng could easily afford it thanks to his gains in the poisonous miasma world.

But Lu Sheng said helplessly, "My small world now has over 200,000 inhabitants and more than 60,000 in troops. The consumption of pills is too high, and I have to spend a lot of credits every day to make up for the shortfall. I would like to ask Brother Lin if there is a way to mass-produce alchemists?"

When he wrote this, he didn't mention how many first- or second-tier beings his small world had; he simply stated a number.

Even so, this sentence was like a meteorite falling to the bottom of a lake, stirring up a huge storm in the group. The moment it was sent, a series of messages popped up below.

Lin He: "???"

Zhao Mingjian: "???"

Su Yun: "???"

Michelle Reis: "???"

Even Michelle Reis, who had been lurking in the background, was brought to the surface, typing a question mark on the screen.

At that moment, she seemed to understand why Lu Sheng had refused the S-level contract she had offered that day...

Lin He quickly sent another message: "Dude, are you cheating? I loaded several buildings that increase breeding speed and a bunch of food that increases mating desire, and that's how I grew to 50,000 people!"

Su Yun: "I have the [Burial Land] to amass troops, and I only have 200,000 subjects now..."

Zhao Mingjian exclaimed, "Brother Lu, your bragging skills are even a bit better than mine!"

The group sent out a lot of messages, all basically stating that without the help of buildings of grade A or above, it would be impossible for the human population to grow to 200,000 in sixty years.

But then Michelle Reis said, "Have you all forgotten that Lu Sheng's talent is 'Land of Procreation'? The more stable the population environment, the higher the birth rate, which can reach up to 100%!"

"Moreover, Lu Sheng has mastered theoretical knowledge very well and has a lot of experience in cultivating his people. With his talent, architecture, and the effects of spiritual plants, it is not impossible for the population to reach 200,000 in sixty years."

Lu Sheng was somewhat surprised to see Li Jiaxin's post. He had rejected her that day, but he never expected that she would take the initiative to help him out of a predicament.

That's good, it saves him from making up any more unreliable reasons.

After Li Jiaxin spoke, the group chat fell silent for a short while before Lin He broke the silence first.

Lin He: "That's actually quite possible... But Brother Lu Sheng, you've asked the wrong person. My current small world, the Divine Kingdom, is in a period of stable development. Apart from the pills used for cultivation, I hardly consume any pills. It's enough to rely on alchemists to teach mortal apprentices how to refine pills."

"However, based on my observation, people with fire elemental roots are quite talented in alchemy. Brother Lu Sheng, you can give it a try."

Lu Sheng smiled helplessly when he saw this. He also thought about it, but there were only so many people in the tribe with fire-attribute spiritual roots. Could they all be used to refine pills?

Unless the proportion of people with spiritual roots reaches a certain level, the number of alchemists will never be enough using this method.

The group chat kept buzzing with messages. Zhao Mingjian sent a long message: "Brother Lu, if you ask me, you don't need to buy pills for your people. Have you ever considered that it's because you spend so many faith points every day buying pills that you've created the illusion that your divine kingdom has no shortage of pills, leading to a scarcity of alchemists?"

"Humans, as a highly intelligent race, possess a complete social system, can divide classes, and know how to perform their respective duties. When the supply of elixirs cannot meet the demand, the value of each elixir in the divine realm will increase, and the status of alchemists will rise accordingly. Naturally, more people will learn alchemy and become alchemists because of the profits."

"You just need to lower the cost of learning alchemy and speed up the process."

Lu Sheng patiently read through the messages Zhao Mingjian had sent, and suddenly realized, "Brother Zhao truly lives up to his name; he knows so much!"

He really got Zhao Mingjian's act this time.

As Zhao Mingjian said, the resources within the divine realm will be allocated by itself. Referring to the "World Association" and the "Elders' Council," cultivation resources will ultimately flow to those citizens with talent and strength. Those without talent will naturally have less time for cultivation and more time to engage in other work.

Assist the Spirit Flower Fairy in cultivating spiritual plants, reclaiming land to grow spiritual rice, feeding carnivorous demonic beasts, and learning alchemy...

Human social systems will automatically develop in a stable direction, allowing everyone to engage in their areas of expertise.

Even if Lu Sheng does nothing, the divine kingdom will proactively seek solutions based on its own needs.

Of course, if he could create a group of alchemists out of thin air, it would save a lot of time and speed up the process.

He already understood this principle, but he hadn't thought about it so deeply. Now, after hearing Zhao Mingjian's words, he quickly understood what he meant.

Lin He also exclaimed, "I never thought of these words from Brother Zhao; they are truly enlightening."

"It's alright, it's alright. It's mainly because many of my relatives are demigods among the human race. I've naturally learned about it through exposure." Zhao Mingjian was just casually showing off.

Afterwards, they chatted in the group about their respective insights on the development of the divine kingdom. Lu Sheng listened attentively and gained a lot from it.

After leaving the group chat, Lu Sheng first spent 100 million to buy 100 E-grade pill furnaces, and then spent 10 million faith points to buy the recipe for C-grade Soul Nourishing Pills, which he then uploaded to the library.

Afterwards, he bought 10,000 Dark Night Griffins and, together with the Soul-Nourishing Grass and Shadow Fruit he had acquired, released them into the small world. He then sent a message to Yu Zou, instructing him to train these monsters and create an aerial combat army.

Lu Sheng designated a test area to see how it would go.

"I will obey the divine decree!" Yu Zou knelt down and bowed, his forehead touching the ground, his movements very practiced.

Within the small world, ten thousand first-tier Dark Night Griffins were released into the mountains that had appeared in the eastern part of the large forest due to the expansion of the world, and they quickly became the overlords of that area by virtue of their air superiority.

However, they soon encountered their natural enemies.

"roar!!!--"

Several massive dark griffins, each three meters long, swooped down from the sky, preparing to snatch the humans on the ground as if toying with their prey.

Swish!

With a flash of cold light, the lead Dark Griffin was decapitated by a single sword strike. Then, Yu Zou soared into the air, forcefully pushing with both palms, and the powerful magical palm prints grabbed the other two Dark Griffins, pinning them firmly to the ground.

Facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator, these ferocious Dark Night Griffins are like a three-year-old child fighting Godzilla in an octagonal cage—completely powerless to resist.

"Control the true god, seal the yang with blood, take the position of the yin, reverse the death and bring forth the light, use my essence and blood as the guide, one life, two lives, one death, one destruction, I will not retaliate..." Still the old generation's fighting style, Yu Zou made hand seals and used the spells in the "Beast Taming Treasure Book" to tame the leader of the Dark Night Griffin flock.

Based on this, they then captured large numbers of night griffins, imprisoned them, and began to attempt to train them.

Unlike those blood pigs and red bulls, they are true beasts. Even when captured, they retain their wild nature and refuse to submit unless Yu Zou casts a spell to control them.

Three months later, an elderly tribesman who had been hunting since childhood tied the claws and wings of a night griffin with thin rope, blindfolded it, deprived it of food and sleep, and arranged for people to guard it in turns.

Over time, the Dark Griffin's wildness was gradually worn away, and it slowly became willing to obey the old man's commands.

This method quickly spread throughout Blackrock City, and people gave it a new name—

Awakening the vulture.
