Chapter 429
Progress of the times always happens unexpectedly
"Goddess, please help me, please help the Gray Gold Clan overcome this crisis."
Faced with Dura's plea, Roland turned her head away, avoiding the little girl's hopeful gaze, and gave a wry smile.
"Dura, in my current state, I can't defeat the Church of Vulcan."
"The Church of the Fire God?"
Dura's expression froze for half a second, then she hurriedly waved her hand.
"No, no, no, how could I let you, my goddess, take such a risk!"
Seeing Dura's behavior, Roland recalled the badges and tokens she had received in reality that allowed her to inspect the family business at any time, and suddenly realized what was going on.
"I understand... You want me to help you regain market share?"
Dula nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, Mom, Goddess?"
"That won't work either. The Church of Vulcan's product advantage is based on the environment. The conditions of the dark underground mean that it is destined to be unable to defeat the surface world in physical industries. You should know that."
As soon as Roland spoke, Dura pursed her lips.
She rested her chin on the gold armrest, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.
The disappointment lasted only a moment, and was quickly wiped away, replaced by renewed reverence for the goddess.
What is Kloran's current status?
As the main controller of the God of Wealth, she took in every subtle change in Dura's expression.
She released her right hand from Dura's and instead pinched the little girl's cheek, pulling it gently.
"Alright, don't be so disappointed. Although there's nothing we can do about the industrial issues for now, I can still help with the agricultural aspects."
"Aren't you curious about the agricultural techniques of the Church of Vulcan? I can teach you."
Dura looked at Roland with surprise.
"My Goddess, do you actually know the secrets of agricultural technology in the mortal world?"
"certainly."
With a calm expression, Roland began to describe the knowledge and skills related to breeding.
This technology was indeed proposed by myself. It uses a relatively simple selective iteration technique, which simply selects plants that are "high-yielding", "pest-resistant", and "drought-resistant" to be used as mother plants for the next round of cultivation.
However, through the subsequent exploration of the Harvest Tree Spirit - Lady Tree, methods such as magic-induced mutation and hybridization were gradually developed, further expanding the cultivation ceiling of crops.
Based on Dura's description, Tiger Head probably brought a team of extraordinary priests skilled in nature magic to accelerate crop improvement through magical means.
The nearly half-hour detailed introduction left Dura speechless with astonishment.
His lips remained closed for a long time, revealing his slightly sharp canine teeth. His pink tongue, which was slightly longer than a human's, gently pressed against his teeth, making him look somewhat cute and comical.
"Is crop improvement really that simple?"
"It's not exactly easy."
Roland raised her hand and channeled the power of her divine kingdom, summoning a cup of steaming black tea to moisten her throat, which had become somewhat dry from talking.
Hearing Dura's sigh, she thought of the hardworking farmers on the outskirts of the imperial capital and the poorly paid laborers in the dark underground farms, and sighed as well.
"Because of the magic, our crops have very stable traits, and it often takes a long time to see results. The workers at the bottom don't have the energy or time to observe these changes."
"And the extraordinary individuals and nobles who have the ability to do all this are completely indifferent to the construction of basic livelihoods."
"They spend all their time researching how to increase their strength, unleash bigger and more powerful fireball spells, and cause more and more destruction than anyone else, while few people care about creation and development."
Dura listened in silence, then guiltily avoided Roland's gaze.
Roland didn't pay any attention and continued to stroke Dura's hair.
"Dura, I don't mean to blame you. The law of the jungle is the rule of this world, so focusing on improving your strength is inevitable."
"However, now that we have faith technology, we need to shift our focus a bit more to the common people."
Dura obediently rubbed her head against Roland's palm and nodded.
"I will heed your teachings, my Goddess."
"Well, let's try the agricultural technology I mentioned. The environment in the dark underground is poor, so the breeding results may not be as good as those from the Church of Vulcan, but it can still alleviate the pressure on the Gray Gold family a little."
……
Dura left the Kingdom of Wealth with a satisfied heart.
Roland also relaxed and followed suit, returning to reality.
"I didn't expect that the young lady would contact me one day and then log into the divine kingdom the next. I almost couldn't switch roles."
She let out a long breath and got up from the bed, only to find that her nightgown was soaked with sweat.
The energy expenditure of the innovative magic array far exceeded expectations, which manifested in reality as constant sweating and immense pressure.
After a quick cleaning with some magic, Roland couldn't wait to run to her office and rummage through her drawers for magical items suitable for accessing the divine realm.
She quickly found a style that suited her taste.
A black magic drawing board.
That's right, it's the same small drawing board that the mute goblin Tess always hangs on her waist to replace speaking, which is the same one that the employees of Rotating Golden Sparrow No. 1 are equipped with.
This thing has a built-in feedback projection technology, so you can use a corresponding quill pen to write or draw on it at will, and erase it as you write.
Similarly, with slight modifications, it can also be used as a regular projection magic tool, functioning as equivalent to a mobile phone screen on Earth.
Roland raised her finger and began to trace a pale gold magic circle on the back of the magic drawing board.
The array patterns weren't as complex as those in the divine realm; they were simply magic circles used for identification and connection, much like phone cards on Earth.
The magic circle glowed faintly under the influence of magic, and the magic crystals embedded on the side of the magic drawing board were consumed at a significantly faster rate. Roland stared anxiously at the pitch blackness in the center of the drawing board.
After all this commotion today, and almost ruining the divine kingdom, I don't even know if we'll be able to achieve our goal.
After waiting for a full five minutes, just as Roland was about to give up, blue magical noise suddenly flashed in the center of the magic drawing board, and the image suddenly turned into a snowflake.
This scene was very familiar to Roland; it looked just like this when the TV lost signal when she was a child.
Could it be that……
As expected, the blue magical noise lasted for half a minute before the screen abruptly switched to a rudimentary black and white interface.
A series of texts kept appearing, appearing rapidly on the canvas, much like a group chat software on Earth.
"My Goddess, I pray to you..."
"My Goddess, please have mercy..."
"Goddess-sama..."
It worked!
Prayers that should have been sent to the Kingdom of God appeared on the magic drawing board. Roland could respond directly in reality by touching the corresponding words.
Although the interface is very basic and the functions are limited, Roland is already very satisfied.
She played with the same magic drawing board as Tess, a bright smile spreading across her face.
This was the first time she had created something new without relying on the system, simply by "thinking," and she felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Messages of prayer popped up on the magic drawing board, and Roland's eyes became slightly dazed as she thought of her homeland, which was far away and unknown.
"Sigh, does this count as playing on a cell phone in another world?"
She murmured softly, then suddenly froze.
and many more……
cell phone?
Their gaze gradually moved downwards, locking onto a magical artifact that was less of a drawing board and more of a screen, and their pupils began to tremble.
Immediately afterwards, her arms, body, and thighs began to tremble, and she was plunged into an uncontrollable state of excitement.
"Holy crap, this is a... cell phone?!"
