The natural empire of ocean dragons

Chapter 138 From dogtail grass to millet

Attilan has seen many eye-catching clam spirits in TV series before. Although the big river clams he raises are mirages, they can still be regarded as relatives.

The mirage appears as a clam spirit, and Attilan thought it would be good to give the river clam a clam spirit name. However, the three clam spirits he knew, two pearls, and a mulberry wine, seemed to have a bad end.

One word, miserable! Two words, death without a whole body!

In short, in Attilan's impression, monsters like the Clam Spirit did not seem to have a good end.

In order for the river clam to live a long time, Attilan felt that she needed a good name.

Immortality? An'an? Quietly?

Forget it, since I can't think of a good name, I won't. Anyway, the river clam can't speak yet, so it doesn't matter whether she has a name or not. She can think about the name after she can breathe mirage and transform into a human form.

The River Clam was only exposed to the sporadic dragon ball breath of the swamp dragon, and she grew to her current intelligence, while Attilan invested a lot of energy in polishing the creeping dragon spirit.

Wisdom is not as good as a river clam.

At the mention of the creeping dragon spirit, Attilan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as if he really paid less attention to the creeping dragon spirit now.

The creeping dragon spirit is his number one battle pet. In several battles with tiger men, the creeping dragon spirit has played an important role, but the growth rate of the creeping dragon spirit is only a little bit.

Attilan's lightning breath and life energy could not speed up the growth of the creeping dragon spirit.

He could only choose a node of natural magic power for the creeping dragon spirit to live in, and occasionally throw some of the fine natural crystal fragments left over from the explosion after his condensation failed to it.

Just like a bone thrown to a puppy, the creeping dragon spirit can hold the natural crystal fragments and absorb them for a long time, and even treat the fragments as treasures and store them in its nest.

Although the creeping dragon spirit was very big, when Attilan looked at it, he really felt like he was raising a cute puppy.

I just happened to see the big river clam today, so I might as well go and see the creeping dragon spirit.

However, Attilan first needs to put the big river clams in his underwater dragon lair. The water element there will be relatively rich, while the water element in the river clam field is too thin.

In addition to Thrall, a talented shaman apprentice, the old fishman also has several fishman apprentices, but these fishmen do not have much talent. The water element summoned is not enough to even irrigate the river clam fields.

In order to make the cultured pearls more lustrous, it is necessary to nourish the clams with water elements.

As long as it is water, there will be water element in it, but the content of water element in different waters varies greatly.

Pearls cultivated in an environment with low water element are dull and dull, while magic pearls cultivated in an environment with high concentration of water element, no matter what color they are, the light they emit can be described as breathtaking.

Male professionals will use these pearls and gems, which contain pure magic power, as materials to smelt them into their existing equipment and props, or to create new props.

Anyway, such a beautiful gem will probably disappear without a trace.

Female professionals or aristocratic women want to use these dazzling jewelry to create crowns, earrings, rings, and necklaces to make themselves more beautiful.

The better the magic power of the gem, the higher the temptation to intelligent life. Maybe you are not interested in a hot succubus, but when you see the top gem, you will never be able to take your eyes away.

For example, the dark night stars that Attilan just returned to the River Clam have already begun to attract people's hearts.

If the dark night stars are completely accompanied by the transformation of the river clam from a mirage, even a mirage.

Anyone who sees the dark night stars will covet the beauty of the dark night stars and want to get it by any means necessary, because the dark night stars not only represent beauty, they also have power!

Mirage beads, like illithids, have the ability to control the mind and are a must-have prop to confuse people.

Attilan not only wanted the big river clam to live near his underwater dragon's nest, but also wanted to improve the effect of the dark night stars. Many shady plans require such a prop.

Pick up the big river clam and dive into the lake, go to the underwater dragon's nest and dig a cave more than one meter high. Open a small opening from the dragon's nest and connect it to the cave to bring in the water element next door.

There is a strong aura of dragons here, and no underwater creature without eyes dares to break in. Moreover, the dragon's nest is also guarded by the herring spirit. If something really runs in, the herring spirit can knock it out with one tail.

"From now on, you can absorb the water element here with peace of mind. As for the food, I will arrange for the fishmen to bring it to you."

This glorious task is naturally given to Thrall. As a shaman, what he needs most is various natural creatures and elemental spirits that can communicate.

In addition to the herring spirit, the large river clams raised by Attilan and the creeping dragon spirit are all existences of great communication value.

Attilan felt that the fighting prowess of the two of them was not surprising, but if Thrall could borrow their power, he would have many more ways to deal with the enemy.

The clamshell shook gently, revealing the joy of the big river clam. She liked the environment of the underwater dragon's nest very much, mainly because of the atmosphere of Attilan's oceanic subdragon, which made the big river clam feel very at ease.

"Daqing, take care of her."

The herring spirit came over from the side and circled happily around the big river clam. It was quite happy with this big river clam that could become its companion.

The blue-scaled fish people have always raised magic herring, except that they need the herring to increase their combat effectiveness in the water, because the herring spirit wants to increase the number of companions.

The old fish man couldn't find other spirits, so he could only increase the number of ordinary big herrings.

While Attilan was flying towards the habitat of the overgrown dragon spirits in the forest, he suddenly discovered something that made him curious.

It was a female druid who had joined the Thunder Mutual Aid Association, but had a low sense of presence. Attilan only knew that she had a good relationship with the flower girl, and seemed to belong to the Botanical School.

She was actually harvesting mature foxtail grass.

<divclass="contentadv">Attilan immediately landed next to her.

"Why are you collecting Setaria seeds? Are you planning to cultivate Setaria seeds?"

The grass girl smiled and patted the half-filled basket of dogtail grass and said:

"Yes, President, I want to cultivate Setaria and domesticate it into a food that is not inferior to wheat. This subject is of great research value."

Attilan nodded heavily and said:

"If you really domesticate dogtail grass into millet, you will be the mother of millet!"

The grass girl smiled and shook her head.

"How can you, President, be so exaggerated? If you want to domesticate dogtail grass into a grain yield per acre that can fill your stomach, I feel that I may not be able to do it until I die."

Attilan said with firm eyes:

"If you dare to do it, you are already braver than most druids! I am also involved in this project. If Xiaomi is really cultivated, the first ones to benefit will be my subordinates."

Selecting the large, plump dogtail grass seeds is a repetitive and complicated task. Not only does the druid not get much natural magic during the domestication process, but it also wastes a lot of practice time.

Attilan has observed the ears of foxtail grass in the forest. They are generally under five centimeters, and the grass seeds are also small and shriveled, with basically no edible value.

You must know that in the world before Attilan traveled, it took humans six thousand years to domesticate dogtail grass into millet.

Of course, Druid can see the genetic fragments of Setaria and can better screen for seeds with edible value.

But Attilan was not sure whether he and Cao Nu could tame the foxtail grass from a weed into a cereal before Cao Nu died.

Miscellaneous grains refer to the status of grains. In addition to planting wheat, millet is planted to increase the risk resistance to avoid harvesting.

The staple food is naturally not delicious, but has high yield and can keep people alive.

"How long do you think these grass seeds can grow into ears of grain?"

The grass girl shook her head and said:

"I don't know either. The length of the grass fruits collected now are all about five centimeters. I will be very satisfied if I can cultivate the next generation of grass seeds with a stable length of six or seven centimeters this year."

Attilan nodded in agreement and asked:

"Compared with domesticating foxtail grass, I think it would be more valuable to screen existing wheat seeds and obtain wheat varieties with higher yields, right?"

The grass girl smiled and shook her head:

"That's something you should consider, Lord Dragon. I think cultivating new grains like millet is more valuable. President, do you plan to quit and breed wheat?"

Attilan slapped the ground directly.

"Since I agreed to join, I will not quit easily, but there is no need for you to do unskilled work like collecting grass seeds yourself."

"I will dispatch some kobolds to help you collect and cultivate millet. You only need to be responsible for screening the grass seeds and selecting valuable ability fragments in the grass seeds."

The grass girl's eyes lit up.

"Thank you, President!"

Attilan looked at the grass girl in confusion and asked:

"I see that you are quite talkative. Why didn't you say anything when you attended the Thunder Rally?"

The grass girl said in a daze:

"I don't think talking to people is fun. Communicating with plants, understanding their needs, and cultivating new varieties of flowers, plants, and trees is what I want to do."

“Communicating with people is a waste of time.”

"Then why did you talk to me so much today?"

The grass girl just patted the dogtail grass in the basket and said nothing.

"You are willing to talk to me because I am willing to join your project and provide manpower?"

The grass girl shook her head and said:

"No, we are in the same research group, so our conversation is not a meaningless exchange, but to domesticate foxtail grass faster and cultivate better millet!"

Attilan pursed his lips and looked at the grass girl helplessly. Through the grass girl, he discovered a problem, that is, the other druids in the Thunder Mutual Aid Association might not be able to speak.

They just don't want meaningless communication.

Attilan and the others like to have a lively party life, and these taciturn guys are not afraid of society, but just because they put all their energy into the practice that interests them.

Maybe their research doesn't create much value. But they enjoy it.

Attilan admired this kind of person.

However, he also wanted to try to see if he could transform them like a grass girl.
