"Okay, don't make a fuss, give me a serious thought, how to solve the problem!"

Liu Ruxu's judgment was not wrong, Chu Chen was indeed very tired of this freshwater problem, and he couldn't wait to solve this trouble immediately.

After Chu Chen finished speaking, Zhang Yuan had something to say, but when the words came to his lips, he shook his head again, and just sighed lightly.

When Zhang Yuan shook his head, Chu Chen happened to take steps and walked to Shi Yingying's side and sat down, so he didn't notice his shaking his head and sighing.

Sitting next to Shi Yingying, Chu Chen looked at Xiao Qi and He Xing and asked, "Xiao Qi, is there any way for your druids to store fresh water?" And what Xing, you are also good at ice magic, and think about it, is there a way to solve this problem. ”

Warriors, archers, priests, knights, and other professions in these bases obviously have nothing to do with freshwater, and only druids and water mages may find a way.

After He Xing listened, he fell into thought.

And Xiao Qi looked at Chu Chen, and replied blankly: "We druids can indeed sense the nearby water source, so if it is really that kind of terrifying situation, maybe there is no water source nearby at all, right?" Why don't we dig a well? ”

Hearing Xiao Qi's suggestion, Zhang Yuan shook his head and denied: "No, even the ground will be dried in that kind of weather, and the well we dug is estimated to be able to pump some water a few days ago, but if the whole summer is that kind of hot weather, digging a well alone cannot completely solve the problem." ”

After Zhang Yuan rejected Xiao Qi's suggestion, the scene fell silent for a while.

After a few minutes, just when Chu Chen was a little disappointed, He Xing raised his head and asked tentatively at Chu Chen: "Boss Chu, you said that we will seal the water into the reservoir in the west, can we keep it?" ”

Chu Chen sighed when he heard this, shook his head at He Xing and said: "I mentioned this method to Uncle Zhang before, but Uncle Zhang said that the sealing of the reservoir is not enough, if it is only fresh water, there is no problem, I am afraid that the temperature will be too high at that time, and the fresh water will vaporize and lose, and the fresh water in it will not be able to stay for a few days." ”

He Xing waved his hand and explained to Chu Chen: "No, no, Boss Chu, what I mean is to condense all the fresh water in the entire reservoir into ice, so that even if the ice melts, and then it is baked by the sun and vaporized, the speed will slow down a lot, is it possible to survive until the end of summer?" ”

Chu Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked Shi Yingying beside him, "Yingying, are you sure that the fresh water in the entire reservoir will be condensed into a whole piece of ice?" ”

Shi Yingying tilted her head, frowned and thought for a while before answering Chu Chen: "Brother Chu, the fastest, the fastest, it will take five to seven days to condense all the fresh water into ice. ”

Chu Chen looked at Shi Yingying's lovely movements, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, took out the 'source of magic power' from the different dimension, and put it on Shi Yingying's neck.

After putting the necklace on, Chu Chen turned his head to look at Zhang Yuan and asked, "Uncle Zhang, if this is the arrangement, how long do you think the fresh water in the reservoir can last?" ”

Zhang Yuan nodded slightly, then shook his head and said, "If this arrangement is made, it can indeed delay the time of fresh water vaporization, but it can't be delayed for long!" ”

And Liu Ruxu, who was sitting opposite Zhang Yuan, frowned slightly, and said to Chu Chen: "Chu Chen, I think Zhang Lao has a better solution, he wanted to say it at the beginning, but he didn't have time to say it, you might as well let him say his thoughts and let everyone hear it." ”

Chu Chen glanced at Liu Ruxu, turned his head and smiled at Zhang Yuan: "Oh? Uncle Zhang, is it true? Then you can talk about it, and let us hear your opinions! ”

Zhang Yuan smiled reluctantly at Chu Chen, and said, "Boss Chu, you are joking, in fact, my thoughts are the same as those of Lord He, but there are some more arrangements. ”

Seeing that Zhang Yuan stopped, Chu Chen stretched out his hand and smiled at Zhang Yuan, and motioned for him to continue.

Zhang Yuan also smiled in response to Chu Chen, and then continued: "My idea is to fill the reservoir with fresh water, and then Miss Shi Yingying will condense the fresh water into ice, and then, we, the earth magicians, will fill in the huge pit above the reservoir, which will slow down the melting speed of the ice cubes to the greatest extent, but in this way, I don't know if Miss Shi Yingying can re-melt the ice into fresh water from such a distance." ”

"Fill in the flood control lake?"

Chu Chen was startled at first, and then laughed self-deprecatingly: "Haha, I forgot, this flood control lake was originally dug and built by you Uncle Zhang, and when the summer passes, if you want to dig it again, it is naturally not a difficult thing, right?" ”

Seeing Zhang Yuan nodded, Chu Chen looked at Shi Yingying with an inquiring gaze again.

And Shi Yingying saw Chu Chen looking at her, and after thinking about it, she replied: "As long as you make sure that there is still ice or fresh water left in the water pipe, and it is always connected to the reservoir, I can make the ice cubes in the reservoir turn into fresh water again." ”

Chu Chen slapped his thigh and smiled excitedly: "Okay!" Haha, that's it! I went and finally solved this matter! ”

"Chu... Boss Chu, this, this matter has not been completely resolved. ”

Just when Chu Chen was elated, Zhang Yuan poured a basin of cold water on Chu Chen, and Chu Chen suddenly felt inexplicable: "Uncle Zhang, didn't you say it?" Just fill in the crater above the reservoir to slow down the melting of the ice as much as possible! ”

Zhang Yuan smiled awkwardly and explained to Chu Chen: "Boss Chu, slow down the melting speed of the ice cube to the greatest extent, and the ice cube will also melt, unless it is ......"

"Unless what?"

Hearing Chu Chen's anxious question, Zhang Yuan didn't dare to hesitate, and answered Chu Chen directly: "Unless you can find a piece of magic crystal with the attribute of 'Gathering Spirits'!" ”

！！！

Hearing Zhang Yuan's answer, Chu Chen was even more full of question marks: "What do you mean?" Uncle Zhang, do you know the attribute of 'Gathering Spirits'? ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and explained to Chu Chen: "Three days ago, you left the Peace Forest first, while I stayed in the Peace Forest for half a day before rushing back to Ningqiu City. After you left, Lord Wei Meng talked to me for a few hours, and we thought of many ways, but we never thought of any way to perfectly solve the freshwater crisis in Ningqiu City! In the end, we came up with a plan that wasn't too perfect. ”

After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yuan began to recount this imperfect plan: "This plan is to find a piece of magic crystal with the attribute of 'gathering spirits' and put it in the center of the reservoir, and then a large number of water magicians will work to condense the fresh water in the reservoir into ice, and then our earth magicians will refill the artificial flood control lake above the reservoir with mud to isolate it as much as possible, and the heating effect brought by the sunlight will be insulated." ”

Chu Chen looked at Zhang Yuan and frowned slightly: this plan that Zhang Yuan repeatedly emphasized was almost the same as the plan he said before, and even it was not much different from He Xing's idea, except that there was such a piece of 'Gathering Spirit' attribute magic crystal!

"What is the purpose of this 'Gathering Spirit' attribute?"

Zhang Yuan smiled and explained to Chu Chen: "Master Wei has already told me, Boss Chu, you sent one such magic crystal to Yu Sheng and Master Yu, in fact, not long after you gave it away, Master Yu and Master Jiang worked together to study the specific use of this magic crystal. ”

Without waiting for Chu Chen to ask, Zhang Yuan continued to explain the effect of this 'Gathering Spirits' attribute: "This 'Gathering Spirits' attribute magic crystal, if it is used to create equipment, will add the attribute of 'increasing magic recovery speed' to the equipment, and if it is used to make a staff, it will attach the attribute of 'increasing magic release speed' to the staff!" And if it is not used to build equipment, it can slowly condense the magic element, as for the attribute of the condensed magic element, it is determined by the strongest magic element around it! ”

After Chu Chen heard this, he understood what this 'spirit gathering' attribute was.

However, when Chu Chen looked at Zhang Yuan, he sneered and asked, "You Wei Alliance Master didn't tell me before, you should have promised Old Man Yu not to say it, right?" Why are you willing to speak up now? ”
