Lord of Arcane

"What else?" Xia Duo continued to ask.

"I know I can't hide it from the lord." Layton chuckled, showing a rare simple and honest smile, and then continued to report:
"During the process of removing acid from some of the tissues of the magical creature, we found that if the acid is removed excessively, the tissue of the creature will become hard, but that is also relative, more like flexible and elastic leather. "

Hearing this, Xia Duo suddenly understood, "What you found is a slime creature?"

"Yes! Inuvich said that the tissue materials after excessive acid removal can be used as bicycle wheels, and that's not all! The reconstruction process of Linshui Village involves the water supply and drainage system. Originally we wanted to burn clay pipes to be used as water pipes , the tissue material of this magical creature discovered now is actually more suitable than clay pipes!"

The Inuvic mentioned by Layton is one of the territorial magic affairs officers. Xia Duo is no stranger to this name. In addition, Layton just mentioned Atwood, and Xia Duo hasn't seen him for a while.

Therefore, he proposed to see the ooze creatures found during the construction of the Linshui Village reconstruction project with his own eyes. Of course, Layton had no objection to this, and immediately began to lead the way. On the way, he further introduced the process of discovering the ooze creatures——

"My lord, we first discovered that the ooze creature was under the swill pool of the cafeteria in the original territory. It may have been attracted by the swill pool. After we found it, we immediately contacted Elder Atwood and several other magic affairs officers to check it out. .

"At Elder Atwood's suggestion, we temporarily moved the slime creature to the barracks in the south, which has not been dismantled yet. Now Elder Atwood and Inuvić are there."

According to the Linshui Village reconstruction plan, the barracks in the south will also be demolished, and the new barracks will be moved some distance south, but the actual construction will also take time.

Furthermore, if the barracks moved south, the corresponding isolation zone would also need to move south, so it would not be possible to completely build the barracks on the edge of the forest.

……

Following Leiden all the way south, Shado noticed that the further south, the less flat the land became. Even when they reached the original location of the lord's villa, there were still a lot of abandoned floor tiles, demolished old house building materials and many other debris accumulated.

On the north side just passed by, more than half of the land has been leveled. People from the Territory Development Department are carrying heavy objects to re-tamp the ground, and the underground parts of the first phase of construction, such as sewers, drainage pipes, foundations, etc., have also been limed. mark.

Perhaps because of the ooze creature that was discovered, the underground part has not actually started construction, but more preparations are being made before the official start of construction, such as leveling the land in advance, positioning and drawing lines, preparing building materials, etc.

Xia Duo didn't have much opinion on this. If he could find more suitable materials, it would be fine to slightly adjust the original plan.

Now it’s time to see if that ooze creature can become the living rubber of the magical world!
……

Soon, the barracks were approaching. After confirming their identities routinely, Xia Duo and Layton were able to enter the barracks, and then they came to the northeast corner of the barracks together.

It was originally a confinement room built together with the toilet, but now it has become a temporary slime biology laboratory.

"Elder Atwood, the lord is here!"

Before reaching the confinement room, Layton yelled loudly. The next moment, six or seven people ran out of the small confinement room, and the leader was Atwood, whom Xia Duo hadn't seen for a long time.

Seeing Jay in the crowd, Sha Duo immediately realized that it was not that the small confinement room could accommodate six or seven people and even conduct various experiments in it, but that Jay had summoned the portable laboratory here.

"My lord."*6
"teacher."

Everyone saluted one by one, Xia Duo waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to be too polite, and then called everyone to enter the confinement room together, which was actually the second-level laboratory he had given to Jay before.

The second-level laboratory includes a large general laboratory, two small general laboratories, two medium magic laboratories, a standard warehouse, a standard reception room, a small meeting room, and three standard lounges.

The total area is not small, but if it is built in a demiplane, it doesn't matter how big it is. What really limits its size is the few laboratories, and the rest are incidentals.

And once it is summoned to the main plane, it is really a huge room within a square inch. Just looking at it from the outside, there is only one confinement room next to the toilet.

Once inside, the space is far more spacious than most people imagine.

……

Under the leadership of Layton and Atwood, Xia Duo came to Room 1 where the ooze creatures were temporarily stored, which was the only large-scale general-purpose laboratory in Jay's laboratory.

As soon as he stepped through the gate, Xia Duo saw at a glance a puddle of black mud that was bound in the center of the laboratory, and beside it, there were two other groups of similar shapes.

One group was a little yellowish and a little green in color, and lay limp on the ground, almost motionless; while the other group was completely transparent, flowing slowly on the ground, and occasionally arching a small crest.

"Elder Atwood, please introduce me!"

"Yes, my lord."

From Xia Duo's arrival to entering the laboratory, the smile on Atwood's face has not disappeared. At this time, he was introduced by name, and he was so excited that he almost broke his beard.

"My lord, please look! The largest one in the middle is the ooze creature first discovered by the Territory Development Department, and the one on the left is part of the tissue we cut from the middle ooze creature.

"Through feeding domestic garbage, it gradually grew to such a large size that it even became a separate individual. The tissue cut from this body, after deacidification treatment, is a very good fertilizer.

"The one on the right originally came from part of the tissue in the middle, but the only thing we fed it was water. If we fed it too much, this guy gradually became transparent, and it seemed to be more mature than the one on the left. Vibrant.

"So we speculate that the body of this ooze creature is actually a transparent colloid, and it will become what it eats."

That's it!

Xia Duo stared at the transparent colloidal creature on the right that looked like a water element but was not a water element, and asked Atwood: "On the way here, Layton said that the tissue of the slime creature can be used as a pipe, which should be the one on the right. That kind?"

"Uh--"

Atwood was stunned for a moment, and when he realized it, he wanted to laugh out loud, but considering the occasion, he suppressed it, and then explained seriously:

"The situation that the Leiden Consul understands is outdated. At the beginning, we did consider using the tissue material of the black ooze body in the middle to make the pipe, but now we have made the transparent one on the right, which is actually better."

"Have you made any samples?"

"Have."

There really is!Xia Duo was really shocked at this time. You must know that the reconstruction project of Linshui Village has not been started for a long time, and the discovery of ooze creatures must have happened after that, but this has achieved results!

It’s really incredible! (end of this chapter)
