This Holy Knight is So Despicable!-Chapter 388 - 324: Infrastructure Maniac (Please Subscribe)
With the lighting of the match and the injection of energy, the other end of the short stick emitted a glow.
Lette quickly aimed the light at these potted plants, and with the activation of the wish power effect, those shrunken tree people clan members started growing wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they returned to their original form.
Seeing this, Lette quickly turned off the short stick and carefully felt the dissipation of energy.
"As expected, restoring them costs much less wish power than shrinking them."
Emily hadn’t yet recovered from the shock, but still instinctively asked.
"What, what is much less?"
"It’s like rowing against the current versus going with the flow; the size and difficulty of the wish affect the consumption of wish power.
But wishing to grow bigger and wishing to restore to the original state have the same effect, yet the wish power consumption is vastly different.
Because making an object bigger goes against the basic laws of the world, whereas restoring a shrunken item conforms to the laws of the world.
So, the latter requires much less wish power.
But if it’s about growing bigger, it can break through the original size and continue to grow. Restoring just returns it to its original size.
This is also the limitation of the second type of wish."
Lette looked at the lush tree men soldiers: "Strange knowledge increased once more.
It seems that no matter which world, the cost of going with nature and against nature is not the same."
Emily finally came to her senses: "Oh my god, you actually did it. You... you... you holy sin.
Is there anything in this world that you can’t do?"
Lette frowned and looked at Emily: "Perhaps I could try to make you a bit smarter. But I feel like that would go against your witch curse, it’s estimated to be unsuccessful."
"What do you mean! What do you mean!"
Although Emily was very angry, she couldn’t get up at all, she could only roar in anger.
Lette didn’t mind her and instead went to the front of the Tree man Clan Leader.
"How is it, any discomfort?"
"It’s truly amazing, none at all. How did you do it?"
"Never mind how I did it, after all, the battlefield is upfront, I hope your tree man clan can shine brilliantly in this battle destined to go down in history."
The Tree man Clan Leader bowed and saluted: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, our tree man clan will surely seize the fruits of victory and present them to Your Highness."
"Good, I await that. The camp is over there, go ahead. Once you arrive, the commander of the Elf Clan will tell you what to do next."
"As you wish."
The tree man clan slowly made their way to the camp built by the elves, while Lette still lay on the lounge chair, crossing his legs in the sun.
Emily’s body seemed to have recovered a bit, slightly raising her neck.
"Lette, Lette."
"Do you know what it means to rest quietly? Can’t you just lie there peacefully?"
"I know, I wanted to say, how do you plan to launch the attack next?"
"Why?"
Lette glanced at Emily: "Do you have some far-sighted insight?"
"Heh, I really do!"
Emily struggled to move her body, changing to a more comfortable position.
"This wide and turbulent long river, it’s indeed difficult for a large force to cross.
If we fly over from the sky, we will become live targets for the archers, mages, and Magic Crystal Cannons on their walls.
So, thinking of a way to cross the river is more reasonable.
Throughout the Chang River Valley, they blew up all the crossing bridges, leaving only this one place.
They know we will definitely launch an attack here, yet they didn’t do any preemptive resistance or ambush.
I think they must have tampered with this last crossing bridge.
If our large force steps on it, it might explode with a bang.
Then, everyone on the bridge would fall into the water, and our losses would be huge.
So, we absolutely can’t use this crossing bridge."
Lette looked at her woodenly, his eyes filled with helplessness.
"What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with my analysis?"
"One can’t expect too much from you, after all, in your civilization, there is simply no such thing as military strategy."
Lette sighed: "Did I say for the elves to go on this crossing bridge?"
Before he finished speaking, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the nearby camp.
Emily struggled to turn her head and saw an enormous tree rising from the riverbank, instantly growing tall like a tower.
Soon after, countless thick roots plunged into the rushing river water, quickly standing firm.
Subsequently, another enormous tree rose from the riverbed, connected to the first tree with vines, forming a bridge.
"This! This is!"
Lette snapped his fingers: "The correct usage of magic plants, have you ever heard of a plant called the banyan tree?
Their roots are very developed, and they can grow very thick and tall, and a grove of banyan trees might just be a single tree.
My suggestion to the elves was to directly build a bridge over the long river themselves.
After all, you are all element mages, and you can control the growth of plants.
It’s not impossible to build a bridge in a short time."
Sure enough, supported by the elves’ frenzied life magic, one enormous tree after another rose from the riverbed, becoming the bridge’s pillars.
Then countless branches intertwined, finally tangling and growing together, forming an incredibly sturdy, wide, and flat bridge.
Seeing this scene, the enemies on the other side were utterly astounded.
