Chapter 781: Situation

Able certainly doesn't really practice in the spell practice room, but after learning the 'teleportation' spell, he brings the rune word 'Insight' back to his own magic tower and then heads to the Dark World, where he has plenty of time to practice.

During the days of his retreat and 'teleportation', many things happened in the Holy Continent, the most important of which was the appearance of the first alchemist in thousands of years, and this alchemist was an elf, which did not surprise all races.

In the cognition of all the races in the Holy Continent, only the elven alchemist would be qualified to become an alchemy master, and the few who knew the truth did not tell the truth.

It's just that Bernie has been in Harry Castle for a few days and refuses to leave, but because Abel is in retreat, the people in the castle can't inform Abel.

This retreat will be long, as Able needs to practice all of his mid-level wizard spells, with the contemplative aura that comes with Rune Word 'Insight', and the fact that each of his spells is instantaneous, allows him to practice faster than any wizard.

It takes at least three months for other wizards to practice 'teleportation' in the spell practice room, but Abel has the confidence to practice all the intermediate spells to the full level in the three months of the Holy Continent, taking advantage of the time difference in the dark world.

So Abel disappeared, and he did not appear in the Duchy of Kamai.

With the growth of winter wheat in the past year, all the countries of the human world in the Holy Continent have discovered an important thing, that is, all crops, including winter wheat, have shown poor growth.

It wouldn't have had much of an impact if it was just a local area, but countries are finding the same situation everywhere, in all the lands where food is grown, on all kinds of crops.

At the same time, the intelligence systems of the three empires also discovered that as early as a year ago, the elves and dwarves also had a crop yield reduction, in fact, there was relevant information before, but due to the one-year crop yield reduction in the human world, it did not attract enough attention.

Now, combined with the intelligence of the Orc Empire, the intelligence of the Dwarves, and the intelligence of the Elves, the Human Empire was horrified to discover that the legendary crop yield reduction once in thousands of years was very likely to have occurred.

All of a sudden, there were major fluctuations in the price of food in the entire human world, and grain became the most important material, and powerful countries sought more food by various means.

The situation in the human world has suddenly become delicate, and for many years, due to the suppression of the three major empires, there is an incomparably powerful external threat to the orc empire, which has made the various principalities of the human world extremely united.

Even if there were some contradictions between the principalities, there would only be minor frictions, and there would be no real war.

But since the orc empire began to weaken, the long-standing contradictions between the human principalities have begun to emerge, and what really exacerbates the contradictions between the principalities is the reduction of crop yields.

In the human world, there is a special phenomenon, that is, the principalities with grain as their main output are generally weaker, because grain was a cheap commodity in the past, and in addition to solving the problem of food and clothing in their own country, the external income is not much.

Principalities whose main output is minerals or other specialties are stronger, because these principalities have more income to maintain a strong military presence.

Of course, although the contradictions have intensified now, the three major empires have been suppressing them vigorously to prevent this contradiction from completely exploding.

But in the human world, contradictions are like lava underground, and the more they suppress it, the greater the power they will accumulate, and everything is waiting for an opportunity to fully erupt.

Among these principalities, the Duchy of Kamai is different, although it is an agricultural principality, no principality wants to be its enemy, because the Duchy of Kamai has a powerful king.

Among the dwarves, thanks to the full efforts of the dwarves, they had already had a lot of land equipped with a watering system as early as the previous year, and the lack of water could no longer restrict the dwarves from planting.

And once the dwarves, who have always been united, want to do something, then the whole clan will participate in it, and the increase in a large amount of land will allow them to compensate for the negative impact of the reduced production, and last year they were self-sufficient in food.

And Grandmaster Abel's position in the clan was strengthened again, this time not because of his blacksmith status, but because of the watering system he designed, which was not complicated, but no one had ever thought of it.

Among the dwarves, water towers were built one after another, and Abel's drip irrigation system was designed for them according to the dwarven environment, and only some slight modifications were made to the original irrigation system, so that the dwarven people's water shortage problem was completely solved.

In the past, Abel was more in contact with the Goff family and the Dwarven Blacksmith Guild, and had a very good relationship with these dwarves, but now almost every dwarf is extremely grateful to Abel.

Therefore, the Principality of Kamai has a strong dwarven race behind it, which makes no one dare to be an enemy of it.

In the Principality of Kamai, all the grain stores have an additional purchase channel, that is, the Harvest City of the Principality of Kamai, a city that has been completely blocked, and a steady stream of grain is transported out of the Harvest City, which is rationed to supply the entire Principality of Kamai.

After providing the land of the entire Harvest City and the Three Goddesses Spring Water of the fruit trees in the Aoya Valley, the Three Goddesses Spring Water produced by the Three Goddesses Statue has been in a balance.

The use of the Three Goddess Spring Water in such a large area is precisely because Abel has a principality, and Harvest City is in an extremely special position, at the southernmost point of the entire Holy Continent, it does not border any principality, which makes it safer to use the Three Goddess Spring Water in Harvest City.

Of course, all the people in Harvest City who come into contact with the spring water of the Three Goddesses have signed a magic contract, which is also an important reason why the secret can be kept.

And the Aoya Valley is completely closed off by the defensive circle, where the security is even tighter.

Therefore, in silence, Harvest City and Aoya Valley are frantically producing a lot of food, and Abel is not a savior, and he can only help some other friends conditionally on the basis of guaranteeing his own principality.

Abel didn't know this, and it was only after three months that he came out of the lockdown and came to the Morton Magic Tower to return the rune word 'insight' back to the spell practice room, he teleported to the palace of Gomba City.

"Your Majesty, there's important information from the Intelligence Service!" said Burbitch butler almost immediately when he saw Abel.

He has also been very anxious recently, although the Principality of Kamai is very calm at home, but the situation abroad is very dangerous, the open and secret battles between the principalities have not stopped, and many ministers have found him and asked him to contact Abel.

But even he couldn't get in touch with Abel, and the responses he got were messages from him that he was in retreat, don't bother.

At this time, he found out that it was also a very troublesome thing for a wizard to be a king, because what made all the ministers and nobles anxious was only a worldly matter for a wizard, and the worldly things were trivial, far less important than their own strength.

"Tell me, what's the important information?" Abel asked, nodding his head, he hadn't been there in months, and intelligence was important to his understanding of the outside world.

"Your Majesty, one of the most important pieces of information is that all the principalities have seen a continuous reduction in the production of grain crops, and this year's reduction in the production of grain crops has become a fact, and a huge conflict is likely to break out between the principalities!" the Burbitch butler reported first.

"It doesn't affect the Principality of Kamai, does it?" Abel asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, although the Principality of Kamai has also experienced a decrease in grain crop production, but your former territory, Harvest City, has been rationed with food, and everything is stable in the Principality with an ample supply of food!" replied the Burbeech butler.

"That's good, don't worry about the affairs of other principalities, we are not afraid of any principality, whoever dares to provoke us, just notify the two great knights Hoover and Bodleigh, and give me a fierce counterattack, if you need the help of wizards, notify my teacher Wizard Moulton, and he will arrange wizard support!" Abel said lightly.

In terms of knight strength, a knight with the support of Abel's equipment can completely crush the knight of any principality.
