112 Episode 111 Medicinal Herbs and Weeds

The cultivation of the land seems to be going ...... well.

About an hour after the cultivation began.

When I returned from bombing the demon's territory, I found that the field had already been plowed and was almost like a normal field.

It seems that some tree stumps are still being removed at the edges, but it's only a matter of time before the stumps are wiped out by the might of the Desibatoreans.

So far, so good, but ...... there is one problem.

My question was answered by Mercia with a worried look.

"What's wrong?

It's the zunana plant.

Zunana plant. .......

It's a useful herb, but if you're in a place where there's a lot of magical elements, it can grow endlessly and cause problems.

I once tried to grow sugar cane, but it was blocked by zunana plant.

Fortunately, at that time

It's been a long time since desibatore has been at the forefront, but I wonder if it's still as common as ever.

Are they still growing here?

For now, it seems to be fine. ......

Mercia said, looking around.

Right after that, a voice came from a corner of the settlement.

"d*mn it!　Zunana grass is growing!

"Looks like ...... wasn't all right.

"I knew it, .......

While talking about this, we headed towards the adventurer who had raised his voice.

There was definitely a grass that looked similar to Zunana grass growing underneath his feet.

To be sure, we used [Information Manipulation Analysis] to evaluate it, but it seemed to be the same plant that had grown there.

Other Desibattoreans gathered nearby, having heard that Zunana grass had grown.

Desibatore agriculture was suddenly in danger of coming to a halt.

Did this grow after the plowing?　Not like it was there before?

"No, definitely. I'm pretty sure I pulled out every single zunana weed from the roots. ......

I asked the person who discovered it, Desibatore, but he said he was sure.

In addition to the one that was first discovered, there are several other shoots that look like it.

Is there any way to prevent zunana weed?

"No. Desibatore is always like this. It's been a long time since the front line was in Brokens, and I thought it wouldn't grow back. ......

I don't know, either. In the first place, zunana grass was something that was usually in short supply, and that was a problem. ....... Don't you know anything about it, Kaede?

What do I know? .......

At any rate, all you know is that it will grow even if you blow the entire surface layer of the island together with magical bombardment.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to.

...... water surface.

Hydroponics might be an option.

But securing fertilizer is a problem.

I thought hydroponics was based on chemical fertilizer.

Yeah. Hydroponics seems to be tough.

So, the best thing to do is to prevent the invasion of zunana grass seeds (I don't even know if they grow by seeds). ......

How about quarantining it for now?

Quarantine: ...... Are you going to build a partition or something?　Considering the vitality of Zunana grass, I don't think it will be quiet enough for that. ......

No. I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it. Bring the soil in from outside the Deshbatore and ...... if that doesn't work, we're out of luck.

I'm sure we can get there!　...... But how do we block it?

Well, ......, how about turning it into a plant factory?

I took out mithril from the item box and used pressure magic to stretch it.

Then I bend it into a rectangular shape and weld the edges together with fire magic, and the container is complete.

If you put a large planter in here, you can grow some plants.

With that, I took out a lantern from the item box and illuminated the inside of the container.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. ...... Something amazing was created in an instant. ......

I'm not sure what to make of it. But yes, this could be a great way to farm in Desibatore!

The only problem is that we're dealing with zunana grass.

The only problem is that it's dealing with zunana grass, and we won't know if this equipment is really enough to isolate it until we try it.

"...... Let's put some soil in here and see what happens. Do you have a planter?

No, we don't have any at Decibatore. We don't have any in Decibatore. We have demon shells lying around.

Demon's shell?

"Demon shells? Can demon shells be used as planters?

I've never used one, but a flower lover at Desi Battley used to bring seeds and stuff into Desi Battley and plant flowers. He used a giant sparer crab shell as a planter, I think.

Decibatore and flowers ......?

I don't know if I've ever seen such an unsuitable combination.

What did you do about the zunana weed then?

I'm pretty sure I pulled it all out with all my might.

I knew they were growing back. .......

I wonder if there was really any point in going to that much trouble to grow flowers in the desibatore.

In any case, I'm not going to use the shell planter, because I don't want to have weeds growing in the field.

Even if I use soil from outside, it will be useless if the seeds are attached to the shell.

If you don't have a planter, you can make one.

If you don't have a planter, you might as well make one.

I pressed it into place with magic, and welded it to the floor of the container.

I'm going to put the soil I got from ...... outside of Decibatore, I think, around Eyn.

I didn't bring any crop seeds with me, so I can only check to see if any zunana grass will grow.

Finally, I put in a lantern.

I wondered if it was possible to farm in such a box. ...... Surely this would provide soil and light, and water could be managed with magic. ......

A former farmer, Desibatore, observes the completed agricultural container with great interest.

And then he muttered to himself.

This is very convenient. It doesn't seem to weigh much, so we can carry it around and farm anywhere.

No, it's just a lump of mithril filled with soil. ......

Oh, let's try it!　Hold it over there!

Mercia tried to stop them, but the Decibatoreans were unconcerned.

Finally, the Decibattlers, standing one by one at each of the four corners, put their hands on the corners of the container.

"Ready!

With a shout, the container was lifted up.

This is certainly not the wrong use for the container, but .......
