My Summons Are All Gods - Chapter 425 - Food
“Otherwise, there is no other explanation. It could only be the doing of the administrator who is pretending to be mysterious.”
Simmons said angrily.
“In fact, in your eyes, those monsters may be just simple monsters which must be killed.”
“For you, this is a place of trial. But for me, I grew up here, so my understanding is somewhat different from yours.”
Simmons paused for a moment and continued, “Actually, these monsters and the swamp have formed an ecosystem, and each cycle is an indispensable link.”
“Ecosystem?”
Apollo heard this term, and he understood every single word. But when they were put together, he was a little dumbfounded.

“This is also why we worship the sun…”
At this moment, Bulanda, who had been pretending to be asleep, could not help but speak.
Bulanda’s position in the Sky Dynasty was very delicate at the moment. He was not only the focus of everyone’s protection, but also a prisoner who could not move freely.
Bulanda’s advantage over them was that Bulanda was a person from Earth. Although he was still a little slow compared to Jerry, he was more knowledgeable than the people around him
“The original energy came from the rays of light of the sun. Those rays nurtured the plants, the herbivores ate them, and then the carnivores ate them. But no matter if they ate them or were eaten, they could not escape death in the end. After death, their bodies would rot and return to nature to provide nutrients for the plants…”
Bulanda spoke slowly. For the other semi-literate people in the tent, it was a bit difficult to understand this reasoning. Bulanda therefore could only use a short sentence to summarize.
“It means that no matter how weak the creatures are, they all have their own significance. Without any of them, no one will be able to live.”
Simmons agreed, “You’re right, that’s what I mean.”
“With a rough estimation, more than half of the monsters in the entire swamp have gathered here.”
“Before long, they will also feel hungry. At that time, the first batch of monsters that will suffer will be those that feed on plants.”
“After more than half of these monsters die, the plants will grow without any restrictions. The carnivorous monsters won’t be eating the plants, so they can only kill each other.”
“In the end, the entire ecosystem will collapse, and there will be nothing left in the swamp.”
Apollo listened, but he didn’t quite understand. However, he became interested in the last sentence and asked, “Isn’t that a good thing? These monsters can only kill each other in the end!”
“It is indeed a good thing. If we can hold on until that day.”
Hearing such an answer, Apollo had already remembered that he had seen with his own eyes a few hours ago that the monsters outside had already started to kill each other. That meant that these monsters did not need to be dealt with by the Sky Dynasty at all, they would slowly perish themselves.
“But this is just a speculation. Only God knows what happened in the swamp, and the premise is that God is willing to manage this place.”
After Bulanda said the last sentence, the people in the tent stopped chatting. The next day, everyone still had a lot of things to do.
In the morning, Apollo handed the water and bacon for the day to Sherena. Sherena led a group of people and started to move towards the east of the island.
She promised Apollo to return as soon as possible if there was anything. In addition, she had to return before nightfall. The island during the day and the island at night obviously had two different exploration difficulties.
After giving these instructions, Sharena gestured for a long time. Soon, a group of pets surrounded her, and only then did they set off.
“Why haven’t I seen such a person in the team before?”
Bulanda asked from the side. Today, Bulanda’s mission was the simplest among all of them. That was to protect himself.
Apollo watched Sharena leave completely, then only he said slowly. “The fighting abilities of those pets are very problematic. Sharena is usually a member of the team cleaning up the battlefield. Other times, she has nothing to do.”
Although he said that, even Apollo could feel that after His Majesty left, this psychic summoning ability might be able to slightly make up for the shortcomings of the team.
“Alright, change the shift of the people on the tower. Today’s task is to continue building the tower and see if we can build a ladder to go up, so that we don’t have to use divine power to climb up every time.”
“If it really doesn’t work, we can hang a rope for climbing. It’s not impossible.”
“Also, fix your weapons. We’ve been fighting with monsters all this time, and our weapons are all broken.”
After Apollo finished giving out the mission, more than 20 people present started to get busy.
The thing that the Sky Dynasty lacked the most right now was materials. Although everyone had a lot of luggage with them, they were all blown away by a sneeze from the giant monkey.
Now, all the places needed some wood and other things to build tents to prevent everyone from crowding together. It was also good to have more fortifications.
They could not even bear to use a ladder in the tower. They could only use ropes to climb up.
The repair of weapons was more of a mental job than a physical one. There were not many anvil and firewood to begin with. What could be repaired were those most important weapons. This was the most difficult part.
“Oh yes, Simmons, what do you aborigines usually eat?”
Apollo suddenly thought of this question. In his memory, someone had said that almost everything in this Ghost Swamp was highly toxic. Ordinary people would not even eat it, even the slightest touch would cause a slow death.
Then, as a native, Simmons, their tribe must have some special method to remove the toxicity of these things, so that they could be eaten.
But Simmons shook his head. “There is no way to remove the toxicity. Our main food is a kind of white wheat.”
“White wheat?”
Bulanda could not help but ask. He only knew that wheat was golden in color, but he had never heard of such a thing.
“It is indeed white…”
Simmons continued, “However, I was not in charge of these things in the tribe. My main task at that time was to defend against monsters, so I did not know much. I only knew that they called this wheat the only non-toxic and edible thing.”
“The bread that was made… it’s hard to explain. Before His Majesty came here, I always thought that all the food in the world should be like this, so I didn’t care…”
“I even regretted growing up here at that time.”
