Chapter 3195: Evolution Upon Suffering
He knew that the elves were undoubtedly eager to gain more information on the flora of the Panama Continent. After all, the only way that they could harness the power of the treasures of the Panama Continent was through their botanical biotechnology.
They harmonized with flora, and as a civilization, they had grown stronger by using their botanical biotechnology to enhance the power of their trees. They were similar to the therianthropes who also used biotechnology to enhance the fauna that they cultivated.
"We can drip feed our botany to them while getting their biotechnology in return," Rui mused to the Elder Tree. "Specifically, what my father is most interested in is using the technology that they used to build that bridge from Genora to the Panama Continent. That can be of invaluable help when it comes to creating the economic corridors that my father seeks to create to connect human civilization."
The Elder Tree was enthusiastic about the idea.
We of the Beast Domain would much prefer if you used their tree technology to construct your bridges through the Beast Domain rather than your conventional, disruptive human technology. The latter disrupts our ecosystems, while the former will likely be able to integrate and assimilate into our ecosystem.
Rui nodded. "That makes sense. You will also need to leverage the authority that I have bestowed upon you to coordinate the beasts and monsters to help with the establishment of the economic corridors after we get our hands on the technology. Also..."
Rui’s expression grew complicated. "There is a chance that the dark elves will not operate entirely in good faith when they hand their biotechnology to us. We do have the Divine Doctor and the Ecologer, but it is best if you help in ensuring that the botanical biotechnology they hand us doesn’t contain any... subversive elements."
The Elder Tree seemed to grow thoughtful at those words.
Do you not trust the dark elves?
