Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton

Chapter 938: Chapter 514: Taken to Farm_3 Chapter 938: Chapter 514: Taken to Farm_3 What is there to be happy about that the Tree of Life has begun to bear flowers and fruit? That old tree has been alive for nearly a hundred thousand years, and it has been producing fruit for seventy or eighty thousand of those. It blooms and bears fruit every year, what’s there to be happy about?

Emperor Niro certainly didn’t understand that not only had the Tree of Life blossomed and borne fruit, but the elves had also eaten the new fruit without any more diarrhea. The God of Life had forgiven them.

Ever since they were punished by the God of Life, Gailard felt an endless pressure bearing down on her, so heavy it almost left her breathless.

This wasn’t a matter of ‘the god who sheltered them is gone, and from now on they have to be self-reliant and protect themselves.’ It was about the Elf Clan possibly falling from being a long-lived species to a common one, their lifespan shrinking from a thousand years to a mere two hundred years.

The Elf Clan had grown accustomed to a lifespan of a thousand years. All of their living habits and behavioral patterns were developed based on being a long-lived species, and an elf would only be considered an adult at two hundred years old.

A more fatal problem was the birth rate. Their current birth rate was just enough to maintain the stability of their population. If their lifespan dropped to two hundred years without an increase in birth rate, it’s very likely that elves would die before they had the chance to have children after just reaching adulthood.
