Lord of Arcane

Chapter 406 [Prosperity and blooming] Meaning
After telling Leiden about the princess's upcoming inspection, Xia Duo proposed, "The experiment at the brick kiln is temporarily suspended, and a batch of bricks will be fired first to pave the roads and squares."

"Yes, my lord."

"I know that the bricks produced by the brick kiln are still fragile and can't stand people's stepping on them, but these can be improved later, and it also shows Her Royal Highness the determination of the Great Xia to keep improving."

In a sense, laying immature, fragile brick floors is actually just a cosmetic project, but again, if you don't do it, no one will know.

The current bricks are certainly not up to Xia Duo's satisfaction, but judging from the prospect, man-made bricks, or even stones, will definitely replace the naturally mined stones.

Although he is still exploring the magical level in this area for the time being, from a technical point of view, the lower the threshold, the easier it is to popularize. Only ordinary people can participate, which shows the potential in this area.

After that, it is also necessary to continue to upgrade.

After talking about the brick kiln, Xia Duo pointed to the land in front of him that already had the prototype of a farmland, and continued: "This land is also used to show Her Highness the Princess."

And more than that, since it is a "demonstration field", it must not be as simple as turning over the field and planting seeds, it must have the meaning of demonstration.

The demonstration significance of the brick floor is that it provides a building material manufacturing technology that can be continuously improved, as well as an innovative method.

……

As for the "demonstration field", Xia Duo is going to introduce spells into the planting process. When he was sorting out the "Great Xia Collar Standard Development Manual" yesterday, he already had a general idea.

Take out a disassembled plowshare from the dimensional bag. This iron farm tool was ordered by Xia Duo at Savile in the early morning, including axes and saws for logging, spatulas for cooking, etc., scattered and transported several times.

It can be said that even Savile Territory does not have the good conditions in Linshui Village. These iron tools are expensive, and most of them need to be booked in advance.

If Xia Duo hadn’t always had the concept of “a worker must first sharpen his tools if he wants to be good at his work” and “sharpening a knife does not miss the woodcutter”, it is estimated that it would be like the Savile collar, saving as much as possible.

Xia Duo came here for efficiency at the beginning of his development, so how could he care about such a little tool money!
Due to the tight arrangement of various affairs, Xia Duo hadn't had time to research a more suitable [Royal Sword] or [Royal Armament] spell, and now he only uses the 3-level [Flying Art] instead.

The plowshare is not an item with self-awareness, and it doesn't know how to resist at all. After being cast with the [flying technique], it can only be obediently "obedient".

Under Xia Duo's control, the plow was inserted into the ground slowly but firmly, most of it submerged in the ground, and then moved forward very steadily. Seeing this, Leiden at the side immediately ran forward to let the leaders who were leveling the land leave temporarily.

In this way, once, twice, three or four times, a total of five times of [Flying], Xia Duo plowed all the land about four acres in size.

Of course, it was leveled out by the way.

Plowing the land can be done by ordinary people, of course it is not a demonstration of the introduction of spells into planting. Xia Duo just wants to speed up a little bit, because what he is going to do next needs to be verified by events, and the longer the better.

After plowing the ground, Xia Duo rested for a while, took out another bag of barley seeds, and first let Layton be baptized with the holy power. In fact, Xia Duo could do this step, but the positive energy he guided was not as good as Layton's holy power The effect is good.

At the same time, it is also to involve (divine) spellcasters in a broader sense.

The seeds baptized by the holy power are full of vitality. Xia Duo sprinkled the bag of seeds evenly on the freshly plowed ground, forming a "grain carpet" less than 1 meter long.

"The ultimate in life, the prosperity is in full bloom!"

An elf language full of mysterious rhythms was read from Xia Duo's mouth. This elf language was not like ordinary spoken language, but an aria-like poem, tactful and melodious.

While Xia Duo read this sentence, in conjunction with the magic net fluctuations triggered by the voice, he took advantage of the opportunity to add more details, and cast this elf spell with only a level 1 level.

A hazy green light shone, and the wheat grains on the ground expanded rapidly as if accelerated by time, and hair-thin roots drilled out from one end of the wheat grains, extending underground.

Xia Duo picked up a grain of wheat and put it in his palm to observe carefully. The roots were not as long as the grain itself, and the buds did not emerge. He was a little dissatisfied with the result.

However, considering that this is only a 1st-level spell, and the object of the spell is a bag of wheat seeds, it is relieved.

It's not that he doesn't want to improve his spells, but he doesn't know much about elven spells. Netheril has given up the elven magic system, and on the projected plane, he has only been trained as a swordsinger, and has never learned systematic elven magic. .

Although a swordsinger is a mage in essence, he is actually a combat profession, or a "thug", and he specializes in only those kinds of spells. He doesn't even need to understand the principles of spells, he just needs to keep training.

Of course, those swordsingers who are pursuing will definitely find ways to improve.

This [Blooming Blooming] spell was bought by Xia Duo from a mid-level mage from the Savile Mages Guild. At the time, he thought it was a spiritual spell, but after Niya's guidance, he realized that it was an elf spell.

After learning it, he didn't use it a few times. After all, the [Blooming Blossoms] of the 1st ring is not enough for him to grow fruits to eat at any time!
However, Xiaduo knew that there were druids in Netheril, although they were rare, they did exist. Perhaps they were the most suitable for farming, but it is a pity that these Netheril druids learned from the elves, and they only Know to advocate the protection of forests.

In their eyes, it seems that only the forest is considered natural, but they don't know that they are born as human beings, and they have to eat when they live. This is the greatest nature.

Putting aside those bad things for the time being, Xia Duo cast [Flowers in Bloom] seven or eight times in succession, making every grain of wheat grow an inch-long malt.

It's a pity that the effect of [Prosperity and Blooming] has reached its limit at this level, and it will be difficult to make the wheat grains grow rapidly again, so Xia Duo stopped in time.

"Leighton, let someone plant these wheat seedlings."

"Yes, my lord."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo walked out of the "demonstration field" and stood on the sidelines. Before the leader who leveled the land with a rake hadn't left, he was pulled by Layton on the spot.

After arranging the planting, Leiden came to Xia Duo, his face was full of joy, "Sir, this method of yours has eliminated the biggest loss before the seeds germinate! If they can grow smoothly later, then the grain output of the territory will be at least It can increase by [-]%!"

"So much?!"

Xia Duo was also a little surprised. Just raising seedlings in advance increased the yield by [-]%. How far behind Netheril's agriculture must be!
In the Tower of Time Arcane Garden, Xia Duo has never seen seedlings raised in advance, but it matures in a week or even less, and it doesn't matter if they don't grow seedlings, but Xia Duo has never thought about it if there is no seedlings outside.

This is a common thing in Xia Duo's hometown, but it has not happened here. I don't know how many "surprises" will be waiting for him in the future!

After asking Layton carefully about the farming process of ordinary farmers led by Savile, Xia Duo found that apart from the lack of advance breeding process, there is very little fertilization here. At most, some poultry manure is used, and human waste is wasted.

However, Xia Duo didn't study too much about the details that can be replaced by magic. He mainly started in the general direction, such as increasing breeding, even without using magic, it can also increase production.

After all, the seeds that are thrown in the ground and left alone are obviously not the same as the seeds that are cultivated intensively and taken care of by special personnel.

As long as the general direction is right, ordinary people and even mages will naturally fill in the details.

Reshaping the planting process, allowing as many spellcasters as possible to participate in it, and vaguely pointing to the future development trend, this is the meaning that Xia Duo showed in the "demonstration field".
