Chapter 252: Cleanup work in Verdure Village
The next day, Kaito was going to leave the party and come to Freetia. That's why he decided to cooperate with me.
According to Kaito, the flow of players varies. With many of the mid-level players staying in Freetia. The reason for this is because they have the most weapon materials and the most advanced strategies.
The strongest players move in different ways. There are some who stay in Freetia, but there are also many who aim to explore other countries for the first time.
The production jobs are gathering in Wantwork. The reason for this is that there are quests for production jobs due to the reconstruction.
In general, people are starting to leave Freetia. Well, I can't help it, can I?
I also want to do something about Fast Town and the Young Tree Forest. However, like Verdure Village, I need to do something about the corroded land. I left Puyosuke and Sabik as a handful, but...I'll have to consult with Setia and Mir.
After school, I went to the supermarket to do some shopping. This is what I do before vacations.
When I got home, I immediately logged into the game. I asked Setia and Mir about the corroded land.
"They told me that the only way to get rid of the corroded land is to remove the corroded soil or purify it. Isn't that right? Mir"
"Yes. If we don't isolate the corroded soil, the damage will reoccur, but with the amount of corroded soil, isolation is impossible"
That means we have to purify it.
"How do we purify it? I'm sure Puyosuke will be able to cure it, but can you cure it with something like Clear?"
"Clear can cure corrosion. But there is a problem"
What is it? Mir will tell me.
"The soil can't be restored to its original state...the decay destroys the nutrients in the soil and creates a soil that can't grow crops"
That's not going to save Verdure Village.
"Why don't we use fertilizer?"
"Yes, but it would have to be a lot of fertilizer to be effective"
A lot of fertilizer...I know that stuff.
"Ta, Takuto-sama? You're not planning to use that, are you?"
"Eh..."
Setia and Mir must have noticed. It's not surprising since it's their snack.
"Can we use it?"
"Emm..."
"It's definitely effective. I mean, it'll make the soil better than before...I think..."
You're full of it, aren't you? But they are nature-loving elves and dryads. There's no need to compare. However, I'm also very naive.
"I'll leave you two weeks' worth of snacks and after two weeks, I'll go and kill it"
""Understood!""
Let's head for Verdure Village first.
"Warp Gate!"
It's not working...I don't have enough magic power. Damn it...I'll never get through this. Then I realized something important. I think I can't go to the hot springs or the battleship anymore! Oh my gosh!
"W, What are you going to do?"
"We'll have to get someone to take us there...and clear it for us...or is there nothing we can do?"
Sowing fertilizer is something we can do. We can sow fertilizer, Sabik can make it rain, but we can't use grow...dammit.
We had no choice but to go to the farming guild, where there were many quests for reconstruction. But all we can do is clean up the soil contamination.
And we can't even go out into the field. What we can do is this.
Request Quest Clean up the soil contamination in Verdure Village: Difficulty D
Reward: 10000G
Purify the soil of Verdure Village.
So it was a quest. But if I can't go, it's meaningless.
There was nothing I could do about it, so I took Hephaestus with me and asked the carpenter's grandmother for a new forge for Hephaestus and a new Lieblich, then logged out. It's no use, because even the quintessential Yug-san can't build a house that uses stone.
Hephaestus is also making a lot of money, but he didn't have enough money for the forge, so I paid for what he needed. I also answered Hephaestus' requests as much as I could. At first, Hephaestus was a bit reluctant, but when he saw his dream of having his own workshop, he smiled.
After eating dinner, I logged back in. It looks like everyone is going on an adventure...it looks like fun! While I'm working with Loco Moco, Aranea and Airy, Ruin-san and the others arrive.
I ask them to help me with a quest I've found and they agree to help me, so we take the quest together and head out.
When we arrived at Verdure Village, we found ourselves in hell.
"It smells so bad..."
"It smells like garbage left out for a week..."
"Yuuna...you're blowing yourself up with that comment"
As Ruin-san said, it's an expression that only someone who has done it would understand...I hurried to correct her, but it was too late.
Then Ruin-san told me what was happening.
"Apparently, if you're in a corroded field, you'll get sick. Also, ghouls and mysterious monsters have started to appear"
With that smell, it's no wonder I'm sick. Ghouls are monsters that eat corpses. In Japan, they are also called corpse-eating demons. If they were going to eat corpses, I wanted them to eat the rotten zombies.
Ruin-san and the others will be clearing the area as soon as possible.
An hour later...Ruin-san and the others were down due to magic power loss. It's no wonder they're like this if they've been using magic all the time.
And it's not like they can purify it at all...no wonder the range is so small.
"Hey...Mir. We have to clean all this, right?"
"That's right..."
It's impossible...how long will it take?
"This can't be done by ordinary means..."
"Right..."
This would be a difficult task in other countries as well. Then I summoned my secret plan, Puyosuke, the cleaner of the natural world.
"Puyosuke...can you clean the soil here?"
I ask and Puyosuke flattens and stretches. Puyosuke then glowed and when he returned to normal, he had cleaned the soil.
Clearly, the area is large...and Puyosuke used splitting. That's it, I guess. I carried the split Puyosuke with Ruin-san and the others and Puyosuke cured the corrosion at once.
So this is what nature's cleaners are capable of! That's amazing! Puyosuke!
"Slime...like this..."
"I feel so defeated..."
Setia and Mir seem shocked that the slime they've hated so much has done something they can't do.
Slime is a wonderful monster and I hope they will change their perception of it.
After that, Puyosuke healed a large area, but ran out of power...if only I could use Entrust...sorry, Puyosuke.
However, Ruin-san and the others used their MP potions on Puyosuke and the purification of the soil in Verdure Village was completed.
"I was saved. Thank you, Takuto-kun"
"No, you used your MP potions, so I'm grateful to you too"
"Well, you won't get a reward until you do this"
I returned to Freetia with Ruin-san and the others and reported that the quest had been completed.
Then a new quest will start. The next quest is to revive the soil.
Request Quest Revive the soil of Verdure Village: Difficulty D+
Reward: 10000G, Title
Revive the soil of Verdure Village
I suggest to Ruin and the others that they take this on.
"...Are you okay with that?"
"I don't know. I just have a clue about possible items"
I explained the situation and Ruin-san and the others agreed. Then Ruin-san bought half of the fertilizer and we went on the quest together.
Then we went back to Verdure Village, where Setia and Mr. Mir taught us how to sow the fertilizer and we all sowed it together.
It was a lot of work, but we finished successfully and I summoned Sabik.
"Sabik, please pray for rain and if possible, make it a normal rain"
"Shaa!"
Sabik shouted to the heavens and rain clouds formed and rain began to fall. I could have used magic rain, but I decided to use Sabik's since praying for rain would only take one moment.
When Ruin-san and the others applied Grow after the effect of the rainmaking wore off, grass sprouts grew everywhere.
"We did it! Takuto-sama! Mir!"
"Yes! The soil is full of nutrients! We can grow more crops on this land!"
We all report back on the quest. The mayor of Verdure Village thanked us and gave us another title.
Title Savior of Verdure Village
Effect: Increased quality of cultivated vegetables, increased power of light magic
This title is given to those who have revived the soil of Verdure Village.
I'm glad that Ruin-san and the others were able to benefit from it as well.
"Takuto-kun's two weeks are determined by soil purification work"
"Eh!? I'm going to do this all the time!?"
"There are many soil purification quests, so good luck"
"Emm...I can't go out in the field, but..."
I mean, I can't purify the whole country...I left at a loss and found Mel and the others.
Apparently, they had returned from death. I've heard that every field is currently overrun with monsters called ghouls. However, it seems that there is no problem though the number is ridiculous.
The problem is that among the ghouls is a mysterious monster that defeated Mel and the others. It attacked them so suddenly that no one knew what it was.
Mysterious monster...I'll have to be careful. Well, I'm in desperation. I logged out thinking it wasn't really relevant.
