Chapter 41: Grass and Tree Spirits (Part 2)
Chen Feng didn't expect that the ninth magical beast that evolved turned out to be the inconspicuous Heavenly Cowherd [Cowherd].
Looking at the little black guy in his hand, which was several times larger than the original, but was still only the size of a palm, Chen Feng smiled bitterly, what can such a small one do? I'm afraid I can't even beat a walking corpse, right?
The cowherd has a dark golden body, a single horn about seven or eight centimeters sticks out of his head, and a pair of carapace wings behind his back reflect the luster of metallic texture...... Large insects.
"I don't know what special abilities you little guy has." Chen Feng held his forehead and called up the system information of the Cowherd.
I don't know if I don't look at it, but I am shocked when I see it.
"Contract Pet: Cowherd"
"Variety: Celestial Horn."
"Evolution Level: Level 1."
"Special ability: Grass and Tree Elf. Able to communicate with plants and plants and obtain relevant information. ”
"Special ability: Grow like crazy. It can stimulate the growth potential of herbs and trees, accelerate the growth rate, and enter the maturity period in a short time. ”
Grass and tree elves, crazy growth......
Chen Feng muttered and repeated, grabbed the cowherd and put it on his shoulder, "Let's go see Professor Pete." ”
……
Professor Pete has been very busy lately, and since he took over the task of farming, he has not eaten a stable meal, and he has devoted himself to his work.
Especially seeing Nasri's construction career in full swing, Pete is filled with a sense of urgency and competition.
Now, a 3-meter-high, 0.5-meter-thick fence has risen on all sides, giving the members of the base a sense of security.
After the initial completion of the wall, Nasri began two more projects, one to harden the road on the farm and the other to build twelve observation towers.
These two tasks were approved and highly praised by the boss Chen Feng, and the other members were also full of anticipation, because after these two tasks, Nasri will launch a private residential project. For a time, Nasri became a prominent figure in the camp.
And all this is thanks to the real big star - the Great Sage.
Now that it has grown to a height of 10 meters, the evolution level of Zhu Yan has reached 1.1, and there are real Superstars everywhere, and Bonnie and Jinna, one big and one young, the two little girls love the most is to sit on the shoulders of the Great Sage and look at the scenery of the farm.
What about Professor Pete's side?
I get up earlier than Nasri every day, sleep later than Nasri, work in the wheat fields all day, and I am much more tired than Nasri, but I can't see anything for the time being.
The wheat field will mature in at least half a month, and now is the critical time for deworming and care, and the research and development of other crops is a long-term work, in order to enrich everyone's diet, Professor Pete tried to sow corn, potatoes, and strawberries in a large area, which can be processed into a variety of delicious products.
He also helped flamenco raise cattle together.
At the behest of his boss, Wolfgang and others set up a scavenging team, and one day he brought back three cows and four sheep.
Maybe the animals got out of the farm, but it doesn't matter.
The important thing is that there are several more delicious things on the table, at least that's what most people expect.
The anticipation fell on the shoulders of Pete and Flamingo, who asked Nasri to build a new cowshed and sheepfold. Now Pete still remembers the proud expression on Nasri's face when he agreed, and of course, after agreeing, Nasri still had to ask the Great Sage for help.
In order to curry favor with the Great Sage, Nasri secretly asked Wolfgang to help him bring back a lot of bananas.
Now the number of cattle and sheep is very small, so it is too luxurious to kill and eat meat, but fortunately, the daily milk supply is no problem, and the rest of the task is to breed.
The daily pasture for cows and sheep was not a problem, and in order to stimulate the growth of various crops, Professor Pitt also introduced earthworms. This beneficial annelid can effectively improve the soil and stimulate the growth of crops.
In order to find this disgusting-looking little bug, Professor Pitt and Flamingo personally went to the mountains behind the farm and searched every inch of the land.
But even so, the crops are growing too slowly.
If it weren't for the fact that enough food was brought from the supermarket, and Wolfgang and others went out every day to look for supplies, the camp's food reserves would have bottomed out long ago.
However, Professor Pete is a doctor after all, and he keenly noticed that the end times broke out, and wheat and other crops began to mutate, although the magnitude was small, but after a few generations, I don't know what it will become.
Maybe after eating it, you will become a superman?
It is necessary to start researching new types of food such as hybrid wheat and hybrid corn, and Professor Pete, who has been engaged in plant research all his life, understands this very well.
To this end, he opened up a special experimental field, which was planted with his experimental products.
He misses his lab very much now, and some research has to start with genes, which is undoubtedly impossible to achieve under the current conditions.
"Or if only there was a magical beast like the Great Sage to help......" Professor Pete wiped his sweat, he wore a pair of boots, and stood in his test field, "Nasri, if it weren't for the help of the Great Sage, how could the construction progress be so fast!" ”
"Huh? Who's that...... Boss? ”
As he spoke, he saw a man with black hair approaching from a distance with a large dog.
No matter where Chen Feng went, he was followed by the big yellow dog, which was also a magical animal, and in the hearts of everyone in the camp, he even regarded it as the second-in-command of the camp.
"Hey, Professor Pete, hard work!" Far away, Chen Feng waved his hand.
"It's not easy to have a full meal in the last days, and that's what I should do." Pete is neither overly modest nor complaining, but has one thing to say.
"How are the crops doing lately? Oh, oh, I heard you found that all the plants are mutating? Did you get any results? Chen Feng asked casually.
"It's okay, boss, you also know that without a laboratory, some genetic-level research is difficult to carry out." Professor Pete pointed to the experimental field under his feet, "This is my laboratory for the time being, and the practice with the oldest method is too slow, and it will take several generations to get the results, and it will take half a year to produce the results at the earliest." ”
Speaking of this, Professor Pete finally couldn't help but pour a little complaint, "The wheat field on the farm is the same, everything that can be done has been done, you can only wait patiently, there is no way to do it." ”
"Well, that's a problem." Chen Feng pursed his lips, "If, I mean if, I have a way to speed up the growth rate and cycle of these plants?" ”
"What! Do you have a way!? Professor Pete suddenly became excited, and pressed his hands on Chen Feng's shoulders, "If this is the case, then most of the problems can be solved." ”
Chen Feng's footsteps moved slightly, causing Professor Pete's hands to flutter into the air, and then explained with a smile, "Actually, it's not that I have a way, it's it." ”
Professor Pete noticed that the boss had a fist-sized crustacean on his shoulder, like an elf, which had never been seen in any animal book.
"It's called the Cowherd, a magical animal that can speed up the growth of plants and plants, and I think you should be able to use it."
Chen Feng's voice sounded as wonderful to Pete.
"Hahaha, it's finally my turn!"
Looking at Professor Pete's excited and crazy appearance, although Chen Feng didn't know why, he was also very happy in his heart.
