Chapter 392 Special Farmers
The leader of the Barghests approached him, when Archer saw this he stroked the big boy before it ran off.
Archer approached the busy-looking elf and spoke. \'\'How\'s the collecting going my witch?\'\'
\'\'I can create a potion that will force you to make love to me until you give me those two angels,\'\' Hecate commented with a smile as she turned around.
When Archer heard this he was shocked at her joke but started laughing as he answered. \'\'We will Hecate. There\'s no rush it\'s not like we are humans. We have time.\'\'
She smiled and spoke cheerfully, saying, "There are plenty of ingredients here, some I\'m familiar with, but many others remain a mystery to me."
Archer nodded as she started speaking about all the stuff she had collected and found, after Hecate was done chatting she asked a question. \'\'Can we stay here for a little while?\'\'
\'\'Yes, we can. The girls will be helping their families and I\'m sure the college can wait as the empire will celebrate the end of this war they found themselves in.\'\' He answered as he examined some plants she put to the side.
Hecate got excited and lunged at him, she wrapped him in a hug and then kissed him before running off, followed by the four Tarrasques.
Archer returned to the Kruthik colony so he could move them over and level up even more.
When he stepped through the Gate he saw the Workers rushing around preparing to move, and that\'s when he heard the queen\'s voice.
\'\'My scouts have found a new home and started the digging. It will go fast if we send over some Tunneller Kruthiks.\'\'
He nodded, granting her permission. The queen began emitting chittering sounds, and a dozen large Kruthiks, seemingly specialized in digging, materialized.
They passed through the portal and merged with the scouts to help out with the colony construction.
Archer\'s curiosity was piqued, leading him to venture into the domain section designated for the Kruthiks, a part that remained enclosed by walls.
Archer leaped into the sky, ascending to witness the vast domain from a bird\'s-eye perspective.
He soared with grace above the landscape, savoring the breathtaking scene while delicate snowflakes descended gently from the sky.
Beneath him, the land seemed boundless, hosting a rich mix of biomes, including expansive grasslands, murky swamps, lush forests, and dense jungles.
Towering mountains punctuated the terrain, and untamed rivers meandered through the landscape.
The sensation of countless beasts roaming freely below reached him. He saw his treehouse in the distance surrounded by a forest.
His gaze shifted, and there it was, the imposing stone wall that cordoned off the section of the domain where the people he had rescued now dwelled.
On the opposite side of the wall, the Monster Army had established their territory, each species staking their claim within this unconventional alliance.
Archer observed it all, hovering above the land. However, it was the blockaded enclave directly beneath him that commanded his attention.
This was the refuge he had created for the Kruthiks, the forest-like haven he had made for them was just for now to see how they behaved in the domain.
He thought about how he\'d carefully separated the aggressive new addition to the army from the others. If they remained peaceful, he\'d take down the barriers.
Archer returned to the new colony and saw a deep hole which the Tunnellers, Workers, and other Kruthiks.
He didn\'t bother going in as he would only find tunnels, for now, that\'s when more Kruthik Workers appeared carrying large eggs into the hole.
When he saw that he returned to the Nether Realm and saw the colony was very active with a Hive Mind leading the effort.
Archer saw the Stone Men still collecting random Netherbeasts before turning his attention to the queen who spoke. \'\'We are ready to move.\'\'
He nodded and motioned for the queen to step through and enter the domain which she soon did followed by a dozen Hive Lords who stared at him with neutral looks.
While all this was happening Netherbeasts were getting thrown into another portal by the Stone Men.
As they were working Archer saw them carrying a strange mushroom-looking beast. He called over the Stone Man who had hold of it and brought it over to him.
The Stone Man placed it down as Archer looked at the thing and wondered what it was. So he scanned it.
[Myconid]
[Rank D]
Archer examined the beast and saw that it was a humanoid mushroom that came up to his waist and had a red mushroom cap as a head with two black beady eyes.
It had two arms and legs with a stork for a body, after looking at it Archer spoke. \'\'Can you understand me?\'\'
That\'s when the Myconid let out some spores causing the Stone Men and Kruthiks to instantly react but Archer stopped them by putting his hand up.
\'\'Thank you for helping me white-hair. But what about my fellow Myconids?\'\' The little mushroom man commented in Archer\'s mind.
The voice was strange it sounded wise but had a strange accent. Archer nodded and ordered the Stone Men to go retrieve the Mushrooms.
Twenty minutes later, they reappeared, accompanied by half a dozen more Myconids. It was at that moment that the same voice spoke up, inquiring, "They are all here. What are you?"
Amusement twinkled in his eyes upon hearing the fungal query, and he responded, "I am a dragon."
The other Myconids gathered around the one who had spoken, prompting Archer to inquire further, "What is your purpose? Do you cultivate plants and fungus?"
Red Cap looked up at him and nodded its head as it answered. \'\'Yes, we grow all sorts of plants and Myco.\'\'
Archer\'s eyes lit up and an idea popped into his head. That\'s when he offered them a deal of a lifetime. \'\'What if I give you a large underground lair to grow all that you want?\'\'
All the Myconids looked at him with shining eyes before Red Cap asked. \'\'What is the catch? Why do you want us to come with you?\'\'
When Archer heard this he smiled before speaking honestly. \'\'You can help two of my wives with their garden and growing rare alchemy ingredients. I won\'t make you fight, I have more than enough fighters.\'\'
Red Cap looked at him and nodded its head before speaking. \'\'We will come. But we need to get all our Brothers and Sisters. Can you help?\'\'
Archer nodded and ordered the Stone Men to accompany Red Cap to get the rest of the Myconids.
After doing that he entered the domain but teleported to the treehouse and found a large clearing near it.
He closed his eyes and created a massive underground chamber that stretched on for miles so the Myconids had more than enough room.
Once he was done there he returned to the Kruthik colony and noticed all the eggs were gone.
The queen was about to move through the portal until she saw him and spoke. \'\'Thank you for your help. My children say the land is wonderful and the prey is plentiful.\'\'
Archer nodded and introduced himself as he answered. \'\'My name is Archer. I will give you a name like the others.\'\'
He started to think to himself before a name came to him. \'\'Melisande. Your name will be Melisande.\'\'
The queen just looked at him and nodded before entering the portal. He soon noticed the Stone Men were slowing down.
Archer dismissed the ones who were doing nothing and waited for the others who were bringing the Myconids.
After waiting for an hour they returned with hundreds of Myconids in tow who were staring at him with wide beady eyes.
Archer noticed that all the mushroom men came in all different shapes. He shook his head and cast Gate to the underground chamber.
He looked at Red Cap and spoke. \'\'This will be your new home. Once you\'re set up I will send my wives to you, so they can start a farm.\'\'
Red Cap nodded and led the Myconids through the portal followed by Archer who heard them talking among themselves and was excited.
They all spread out while shooting out spores all over the place. He watched this before dismissing the Stone Men and closing the portals.
That\'s when he opened a Gate to the place he left Hecate and reappeared in front of the large pits he dug.
Archer looked in and saw all sorts of Netherbeasts who caught his interest. He spoke to all of them. \'\'You all can serve me or you can die in these holes. Your choice.\'\'
