"Mission completed. Reward: a thorn worm."
When Liszt was riding the chocobo Loki, who had learned levitation, flying in mid-air, the changing smoke appeared in front of him, indicating that the mission had been completed.
The orphanage had been temporarily established.
The requirements for the smoke mission were not strict. Many of the contents were similar to a reminder. Once noticed and started to execute, the mission was considered completed.
"Another thorn worm?" Liszt's eyes lit up. The day before yesterday, he had contracted the thorns worm that was bred from the last reward and moved the worm stalk to the thorns garden planned in the yet to be built "Thorns Town". "The breeding of two thorns worms in a row will greatly increase the output of my thorns magic potion. Very good!"
Patting Loki's stretched neck, Liszt shouted, "Loki, go to the Thorn Garden!"
The Garden of Thorns was the Flower Town's Garden of Thorns.
"Clatter!"
Loki responded cheerfully, flapping his wings, turning his body, and flying at a steady speed to the Thorn Garden next to the dairy farm. A light wind attribute magic was holding Loki's body, making it as light as a feather, so that he could rely on his wings to realize his dream of flying.
Levitation was a high-level wind magic, an advanced magic of Lighten.
Lighten was a magic that magicians would study when studying wind magic. It condensed wind attribute magic to lift themselves or other objects to reduce weight. This was a very practical magic. Magicians liked to rely on Lighten to climb mountains or carry heavy objects.
But Lighten was just an ordinary magic, it could not let people fly.
On the other hand, its advanced Levitation Spell had the ability to fly. It could condense a ball of Wind Elemental Mana and hold itself or other objects in the air as if it was floating. This magic was very difficult. It was difficult for a great magician to learn it. It was comparable to the invisibility of light magic.
Loki, on the other hand, extracted the information of the magic array from his blood, so that he could easily master this magic and truly fly in the blue sky.
Unfortunately, levitation allowed Loki to fly, but lost the speed of running on the ground.
Even if Loki flapped his wings, his speed was only equivalent to a sparrow. Moreover, levitation had a time limit. It would collapse every fifteen minutes and needed to be re-condensed. In fifteen minutes, he could not cross the sea, let alone the sea between Black Horse Island and Flower Town.
However, he could fly from Port Town to Mangrove Island.
He could also fly from the Nameless Castle to the Garden of Thorns. After landing, Liszt directly used Magic Eyes to look for new thorns worms. The Garden of Thorns was basically filled with magic potions that had Mana Retroaction. It was a little difficult to find it, but he still found it after half an hour.
"Carefully protect my worm stalks. Once the thorny thorn worm is born, immediately notify me!" He ordered the worm protection team.
The insect guards replied in a clear voice, "Yes, Sir Lord!"
Satisfied, Liszt left. At this point, he had three lesser sprites, twenty-nine sprite worms, as well as the five contracted sprite worms of A Qi and her. Such wealth had already far surpassed that of an ordinary viscount, and the potential for development was enormous. He was still a little short of the Count's wealth, but he believed that he would soon catch up.
"Whether it is my strength or my elves, I will soon surpass the Earl."
Thinking of the exciting scene at that time, he couldn't help but let out a laugh, "Hehe."
On the way back.
He once again called out the smoke mission: "Mission: You have studied the blue iron, plastic aluminum, and the unintelligible books left behind by the Sky Ship, as well as the magic seeds. Why not continue to study the pile of strange wood? Perhaps they can bring you new inspiration. Reward: an astonishingly talented follower. "
The strange wood mentioned in the quest description was actually the pieces of wood that were salvaged from the sky ship.
The wood seemed to have sprouted and was very hard, not inferior to the thorns ironwood. However, Liszt had studied it for a few days before and did not find much information. He even planned to use it to build the castle if he had no clue. Its similar branches had already been used to build the Sky Ship.
Now it seemed that these strange woods were hiding a secret.
"However, what does an astonishingly talented follower mean? You want me to recruit a new follower? Should I look for one among the new serfs? What kind of talent is that? Is it even more amazing than my talent? "
Liszt was a little confused.
Of course, he wanted to have a powerful follower, but the title of 'astonishingly talented' was something he wanted to wear on his head.
"First complete the mission, then slowly pay attention to this follower."
Back in the castle, he immediately began to study the strange wood, which was obviously a building material. The most peculiar thing about it was the shape of a naturally grown keel in the Sky Ship, which showed that this wood was very malleable.
However, Liszt felt that it was shaped by a kind of magic.
According to the clues at hand, it could be judged that the Children of the Sun lived in the forest and were companions with trees. Moreover, they had very high magic attainments. Not only could they turn into bears, eagles, leopards, but they could also turn into trees. It could be seen that it was not unusual for them to master magic to make trees grow in a fixed manner.
This kind of magic was even recorded in the Sun Scrolls.
However, Liszt's vocabulary was too little to understand the contents of the book: "I guess that among the potion seeds I harvested, there were seeds that grew into this kind of tree … But what does the smoke mission mean by asking me to study the wood again? What secrets are waiting to be unearthed in the wood? "
In the castle, he soaked it in water, burned it with fire, and chopped it with a knife. Apart from proving that it reached ironwood quality, he did not find much useful information.
Shaking his head, he temporarily put aside his study of the wood.
Walking into the glass greenhouse, he patiently tended to the potion seeds that were germinating one after another. One-third of these seeds had germinated. The broad bean seed that germinated first had grown into a small seedling, and the tender leaves looked no different from an ordinary plant seedling.
Just as he was loosening the soil, a seed was accidentally dug out.
He was just about to bury it again when he suddenly found that the seed had germinated, but the germination had died at some point.
"The seed is dead?"
He was surprised for a moment, thought of something, and quickly dug up another place where there was a seed but it had not germinated. A seed was dug out, and like the previous seed, it germinated but died. Several seeds were dug out in a row, and except for one that had not yet germinated, the others had germinated but died.
"Why would germinate and still die? Is it because it has been stored for too long and there is not enough vitality?" Because the dead seeds involved many species, and there were corresponding species that thrived, it could be ruled out as an environmental problem.
He thought carefully and felt that it might be that the seeds were too old, resulting in insufficient vitality.
Although it was a pity that nearly two-thirds of the seeds had died, one-third had germinated, which more or less lessened the regret in his heart.
Just then, an idea flashed in his mind.
He connected the seed and the wood together. "The seed germinated but died. The wood I fished out also sprouted once, but the tender bud died very quickly … Does this mean that these pieces of wood that were sawed into pieces were the 'seeds' used to cultivate plants?"
Not all plants relied on seeds to germinate, and there were many plants that could germinate directly from the trunk.
So.
