"Speaking of which, the ability of my sword is somewhat unique, and it is difficult to show it in a short period of time." Emiya pouted, "But, fortunately, I found something very magical later. ”

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Wei Gong asked someone to bring the things he had prepared a long time ago to the sword table-

A palm-sized round flower pot.

There was only some dark frozen soil inside, but no plants were visible.

A thin layer of frost condenses on it, dividing the soil into many web-like veins.

"What is this?" Ye Ziqing looked at Wei Gong suspiciously.

"Anti-flower."

"Anti-Flower?" Ye Ziqing's eyes were even more puzzled.

Together with the surrounding audience, it was the same bewildered expression.

"Yes, it's just that it's still limited by external conditions and buried in the soil, so you can't see it."

Emiya whispered.

Regurgitar, a plant that grows in the north and in winter, also has a very special flowering period, with only a very short period of three to ten days in the year.

Because the winter climate is cold, it is not suitable for plant growth, and in order to be able to continue life and reproduce, antibiotic flowers are forced to bloom at a very small cost.

Its root system is very shallow compared to other plants, and it is difficult to get nutrients from deep roots, and the rhizomes of the anti-flowering flowers are almost condensed together, turning into a downward anti-cone, and even the part that can expose the soil is very limited.

Its shallow roots, and the fact that it is buried in the upper layers of landmarks, make it a particularly strange plant that swims and survives, not completely immobile on a fixed soil.

As soon as an animal passes by, or is hit by a current, or a strong wind blows, it can dig them out of the shallow soil and carry them far away.

When the weather warms up a little, the cone-like stem plays a unique role, and the shallow roots underneath it grow slightly outward and downward, pushing the sharp tips above the ground through a reaction force.

The upper part of the diameter is a light green layer of cells that can carry out photosynthesis, in this case, the small conical green cortex on top will open upwards like a skirt and become an inverted small umbrella.

That is, it now becomes a cone where two vertices intersect, like an hourglass.

This effect is similar to the principle of solar collectors, which allow the winter and cold northern sunlight to converge and provide more energy.

And then in a short and limited time -

Flowering.

All life is for continuation and reproduction.

In the harsh environment of the outside world, a little bit of resources, such as sunlight and water, as well as nutrients in the soil, are precious.

If the pollen is not disseminated and inseminated, then at colder times, the thin green cortex will converge inward, and the fibrous roots of the roots will automatically push upwards, again relying on the reaction force to return the stems to the soil.

The excess roots will break off from the parent body and become wilted in order to reduce consumption.

It is in this way that the retracted anti-growth flower seeks refuge.

Then, wait for the next warm day of winter.

They repeat this process several times until pollen is fertilized.

The fruit is then lifted high by the conical stem, and the previous green cortex rolls inwards to form an umbrella for the round seeds.

Once the wind passes, the seed with the [umbrella] will be blown high and floated into the distance.

The new seed will fall into the soil with the wind and continue the next life cycle.

At this point, the anti-growth flower can be regarded as having completed all its mission.

The special living environment has created a special species.

This is very much in line with Darwin's theory of evolution.

Emiya smiled and nodded.

Growing in reverse, the way of living that is different from other plants may be the reason for its name.

Sometimes, Emiya also laments that plants cherish time more than humans.

"As we all know, antibiotic flowers have a short flowering period and retract to the ground when they are cold, and only bloom when the weather is good."

Wei Gong looked at several sword masters, and bowed slightly, "What I want to use is this characteristic." ”

Yes, there is no better life than it to show the skill of my sword.

Several swordsmiths looked at him suspiciously, waiting for the guard to make further action.

Emiya grasped the silver-white glove around the hilt of the Void Sword and placed it horizontally on top of the flower pot.

He looked up at the sunset.

At this time, the light was dim, illuminating the entire Heavenly Sword Square in a dim yellow and red.

The breeze is just right.

Emiya gently closed his eyes and drove the spiritual power in his body.

The crowd followed, closing their eyes.

In the invisible sight, a rainbow of brilliant light grew from the long sword, like swimming wings, and like a stream of water blown by the wind, slowly and completely converging towards the flower pot.

After about ten seconds, a crisp sound of breaking ice came from the flower pot.

Gurrah.

Many fine streaks cracked through the thin ice, and in the center of them, a small green tip protruded upwards.

"Look." Some viewers exclaimed.

"Wow......"

In the eyes of everyone, the small green conical tip grew upward, and was arched upwards by the powerful roots underneath, gradually revealing a larger part.

It's like a small bamboo shoot, with only thumb-sized stems exposed.

Then it stubbornly and stubbornly opened the green canopy upwards, taking on the shape of an hourglass.

This couldn't help but remind Emiya of the word time.

Under the gaze of everyone, a small crack opened in the spire, and a small elastic green filament sprang out from it.

At the tip of the filament, a smiling bud began to grow, slowly filling the entire canopy.

Then, the bud opens outwards –

It forms a beautiful flower with three layers of white petals and seven fan-shaped white petals.

The stamens in the middle stand upwards and give off an attractive fragrance.

At such moments, the surrounding light also dimmed.

Even without the right environment, not enough sunlight and temperature, it still blooms with magical flowers.

For southerners who have never seen antibiotic flowers, this is nothing short of a miracle.

"It's amazing......"

"The sword...... What did Emiya do? ”

"A sword that makes plants grow quickly?"

……

The anti-growth flower stood proudly in the pot, and it seemed to be larger than the plant that the people of the northern region were accustomed to.

Ye Ziqing took a deep breath and raised his head to stare into Wei Gong's eyes.

Everyone was waiting for further explanations from the Guardian Palace.
