【Learn professional magic: Harvest】

Yes.

After much consideration.

Rhodes finally chose the seemingly ordinary harvest magic, and then looked at the information panel.

【Demonized Tree Spirit lv10】

[Occupation: Gardener (Level 1)]

[Experience: 15/100]

[Ordinary magic: vine whip, rain spell]

[Professional Magic: Cultivation, Harvest]

"Only 15 experience points?"

Seeing that the experience value on the panel was different from what he expected, Rhodes looked puzzled.

According to his estimation.

If all the wheat had matured, and the experience points each plant provided him were added up to level 10, he should have had to points left over, but in the end he only got this much.

Does it mean that the experience gained from growing ordinary crops becomes less after upgrading?
This actually surprised him.

But I didn't care too much about it. After all, everyone knows that the higher the level, the harder it is to upgrade. At worst, I can just find more high-level plants later.

Or you can win by quantity and plant more crops.

What he cares most about now is the new magic he just learned, and he hopes he won’t be disappointed.

"First, capture a strong man to test the effect."

Rhodes looked around.

As a result, when he turned around, the little ones who had just come over suddenly scattered, screaming and running behind the stones and statues, obviously not used to his new appearance.

Originally, Rhodes had no intention of looking for them.

He withdrew his gaze and found a white flower next to the plantation. He raised his arm and a magic circle appeared as if engraved in his soul, instantly covering an area of ​​one meter in front of him.

"A first-level magic array is this big?!"

Rhodes was startled by the circle of light that appeared in front of him.

Compared to the entry-level Whip and Rainfall, the magic aura of the first-level Harvest is much larger, almost doubled, and more solid, and even the patterns are much more complicated.

"This is what we call a magic circle. Introductory magic is just for children."

Rhodes was in high spirits. With a flick of his hand, the surging magic power turned into the breath of life that enveloped the white flower, making the entire plant emit a faint fluorescence.

Followed by.

Something surprising happened to him.

I saw that the rhizome, which originally had only one white flower, actually grew another flower bud at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As he continued to inject his magic power, the third and fourth flower buds appeared one after another. It was not until the fifth one that it finally stopped growing and turned into a bouquet of white daffodils.

Obviously.

Growing five flower buds at the same time is already its limit.

But even so, Rhodes was still very happy. This magic was much more powerful than he had imagined.

then.

He tried other plants.

It was discovered that the larger the plant, the more magic power it consumed, and the efficiency of increasing production would be greatly reduced, requiring a longer time to cast the spell.

With his current total magic power and mental strength, at best he could double the wheat yield and increase the number of black fruits on the mutant tree by one.

"It's OK. At least the problem of lack of land has been solved temporarily."

Overall, Rhodes was very satisfied with this new magic.

Because it can increase production on limited land, which is exactly what he needs most now.

Next…

That's all that's missing
Taking a deep breath, Rhodes left the plantation and came to the open space outside.

He chose the harvest magic not only to increase the yield, but also for its added value, the same additional effect as the cultivation magic, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

The little ones gradually got used to his appearance and all came over like curious babies.

"Stay away, I'm about to use my ultimate move!"

Rhode shouted in a childish tone and raised his hand, and a magic harvest circle appeared in his hand.

When it was about to take shape, the other hand suddenly raised up and threw the vine whip towards the distance at almost instantaneous speed.

In an instant.

Two completely different magical powers merged into one and sank into the open space at the same time.

puff!
puff!
puff!
Three consecutive sounds of breaking through the air were heard.

Vines as thick as three fingers rushed out of the ground and lashed towards the side fiercely.

"Yeah!"

"Quack~"

The little guys fled in panic upon seeing this, hurriedly ran to hide behind Rhodes, then stuck their heads out to look in the direction of the open space.

Only Rhodes stood still, his eyes full of joy.

"Three shots in a row!"

"Harvest is actually useful for other magic as well!"

This is undoubtedly great news for him.

I thought that at most it would be the same as cultivation, strengthening a single vine and causing it to branch out or something.

However, unexpectedly, the "yield" increase effect of the harvest magic was actually added to the whip, directly turning this single-target magic into a group attack.

What a pleasant surprise!
Moreover, he could feel that as the magic power injection increased, the number of vine whips would increase, and might even reach the upper limit of the harvest magic, with the output directly increasing tenfold, to ten vine whips!
really.

The magic of the gardener profession is not simple.

Fortunately, he just chose 1, otherwise he would have missed such a powerful opportunity.

He raised his hand and instantly released ten rattan whips, which could tie people up in tortoise shell bindings.

What more defensive shield do you need?
The only flaw.

It's just that his current attack magic is too weak.

The entry-level vine whip has limited attack power and length. No matter how much magic power he injects into it, its growth potential is not as good as that of first-level magic.

"It seems I have to find a chance to get a first-level attack magic."

After making up his mind and trying a few more times to see the effect, Rhodes turned around and returned to the altar.

As a result, before I had taken a few steps, the Tree of Life statue next to me suddenly lit up.

Augla, who had been away for many days, entered the dream forest again through his soul, and quickly gathered in front of him.

"Master Rhodes, let me... Oh my god! What kind of monster are you!?"

Augla, who had just condensed his soul, was so frightened by Rhodes's advanced appearance that he cried out loudly. His huge body retreated rapidly and was almost knocked down by the stone under his feet.

Rhode glanced at him and said, "You don't recognize me after just a few days of not seeing me. Is your soul hurt?"

"You are... Lord Rhodes?"

The familiar voice finally made Augula react.

After being stunned for a while, he immediately put on a flattering smile and hurriedly came forward: "Ahaha, well, I was wondering why there was suddenly a tall and majestic figure. As expected of Lord Rhodes, his aura alone intimidated me."

"Come on, stop flattering me. How is your soul damage recovering?" Rhodes interrupted his compliment.

"It's ready."

Augla perked up when he heard this: "Thanks to what Lord Rhodes gave me to drink, I fully recovered in just a few days. Is Lindi doing well during this period?"

"Not bad." Rhode nodded. "It's just right that you're here. I have something to ask you. Do you know the demon tribe?"

"demon?"

Augura's face darkened: "Master Rhodes, have you encountered those despicable creatures?"
