Chapter 171: Militia Recruitment and the Study of Elves in Progression

The Philanti Nongbu is a large tribe established close to the White River, because the water volume of the White River is not as abundant as that of the Black River, and there are more shallow water areas in the upper reaches of the river.

Therefore, the Philantin trolls, who have lived here since ancient times, have not become 'landlubbers' who have never thought of entering the water to hunt, like the tooth trolls;

On the premise of adapting measures to local conditions and making full use of natural resources, they have developed a unique underwater hunting technology.

The Firantinon trolls tie thick ropes made of plant fibre tanning around their waists, or some thick natural vines, and take advantage of the fact that the trolls sink when they enter the water, and walk directly at the bottom of the river.

At the bottom of the river, they hunt fish in the water with primitive spears and spears, as well as some aquatic monsters that swim from nowhere and come here to lay their eggs.

And the extra food produced as a result made the Philanti Ministry of Agriculture the best developed of the ministries for a time;

If it weren't for the fact that the three divisions of the Holy Mountain always breathed out from the same nostrils, the Philanti Agricultural Department would be the leading force in the Eastern Black Forest with its extra 'mouths'.

Of course, this is all the old yellow calendar that has passed, and now it is undoubtedly the extraordinary strength of the teeth.

Therefore, the next thing to talk about is not the source of the technology - Philantinon.....

When the Tooth established its large station here to monitor and trade, the Philantinon troll was naturally learned, and the Tooth used a hollow spell pole that jutted out of the water to extend its underwater stay.

On this day, several hunting teams were hunting in the water as usual, and their targets were not the fish that their teeth were not used to, but the aquatic monsters, or the eggs laid by them.

These beasts have almost no fishy smell, and the eggs they produce are unusually delicious, and due to the strange egg-laying habits of the target beasts, there are only a few areas in the many waterways controlled by the teeth that can obtain these two foods in large quantities.

Today's harvest has been a lot, and the hunting captains climbed ashore satisfied, and began to deal with the preservation of the monster eggs after untying the 'safety rope';

After these things were transported to the headquarters, they could be exchanged for a large sum of money, so they couldn't help but care.

"Did you hear that? We may be drafted by war? ”

"What's going on? How could such a good thing come to us, and could those soldiers be willing? ”

"I don't know very well, but it's Sylvie who came with the news from the Conservative Yuan, and I heard that it's because the soldiers have to protect the progress of some important research, so they can't be dispatched in large numbers... She asked us if we should agree. ”

"So let's go on top? That's a good thing, get her to agree. ”

"Okay, then your hunting team's opinion will be 'agree'? I'll have to ask the other hunting teams as well. ”

"Wait, so there's going to be a war!?" The hunting captain who was asked rubbed his hands and said with some excitement.

"Well, I said I was going to hit the hoofed dwarves in the north."

"Good! Good! I'm tired of catching fish every day... But why hit them? Isn't the relationship pretty good? ”

"Say it's because of that Vino... It's as if that thing is not good for the body and will make our combat effectiveness decrease. ”

"Hmph, these liars, I know they don't have a good heart." Thinking of what he had exchanged for a saw and that those bottles of fart didn't use, the hunting captain snorted angrily, "The soft eggs of the ruling government have finally done what trolls should do, and it seems that we didn't send Sylvie to be a tribune in vain." ”

"That said, the next time it's my turn, I'll have to keep my eyes peeled and keep an eye on them."

"Hey~"

"Hey~"

Similar dialogues took place in the various stations, and as the Directors had hoped, the representatives of the tribunes everywhere responded quite positively to the inclusion of the militia in the call-up sequence.

Not long after, a new, well-approved plan for the war was sent to the Witch Doctors again, and approved by the Rune Council.

During this campaign, a total of 500 soldiers from different branches of the military will be dispatched.

They would become officers of all ranks, responsible for commanding the 3,000 militia units that had been drafted in, and after a certain period of intensive training, they would form a temporary expeditionary force and go to the front.

In addition, hundreds of witch medicine disciples were conscripted, temporarily inscribed with corresponding totems, and formed a medium and long-range communication group to accompany the army, becoming a supplementary communication force for the flag officers responsible for short-distance heralds in the army.

There will also be seven witch doctors who will temporarily put aside their research and enter the army to serve as representatives of the magic force and the 'military council'.

As the forces of all parties were gradually concentrated towards the headquarters, the intensive training, which would last for a month, was soon officially launched.

During this period, the ruling government will begin to coordinate the rest of the affairs such as the consumption of grain and grass.

New Town, Canopy Research Laboratory.

Except for the seven witch doctors who 'enlisted' in the army, the rest of the witch doctors are still concentrated here, intensively advancing the research process of 'Shusheng'.

With the accumulation of a large amount of experimental data, the preliminary work has basically been completed, and now the experimental progress is about to turn the page and enter the next stage of more critical.

First of all, the 'human' artificial insemination technology needs to be broken through.

The witch doctors are going to change the previous practice of using the 'fertilized egg' as the starting point for transplantation, and go a step further and let the combination of sperm and egg take place directly in the tree egg, so that the 'human' placenta can play a better role.

In this regard, the existing technology of "in vitro preservation of cells" in the headquarters has been basically mature;

In particular, in terms of preserving the troll's own cells, due to the high health intensity of the population, it has been possible to maintain their activity for a long time at the appropriate temperature.

The next thing to do is to extend this technology to sperm and eggs, and transplant the environment suitable for sperm and eggs to a certain part of the giant tree;

The egg can automatically 'sit on the egg' at the fruit growth site, and the sperm can be directly connected to the fruit through the pipe, so that the two can be combined in the fruit.

In the later stage, the low-temperature dormancy preservation technology of sperm and eggs, as well as the technology of heating and rejuvenating, will also be integrated into the giant tree, so that it can have ..... For example, a series of functions such as the ability to store both for a long time.

In addition, research on the effect of the high-energy liquid environment on sperm and eggs before union was also initiated, and the changes caused by the sperm and eggs of demonic beasts began to be observed.

If it is proven to have a 'benign impact', then this step will also be planned as a 'pre-employment' for the future.

Corresponding to the above series of steps, the relevant means of sperm and egg retrieval that can be quickly and conveniently retrieved from the body must also be made breakthroughs.....

Otherwise, it is unimaginable how bad it would be every time a corresponding material supply was needed.

In addition to sperm and egg-related items, the shell of the tree eggs must also be optimized;

The witch doctors will try to make it as transparent as possible, not only to facilitate observation during research, but also to seek the 'use of light' in the future.

It has been said before that the high-energy environment only changes the 'hardware' of the embryo at the energy conversion end;

In this case, the organism under study will become a form of "high output and high energy consumption", just like the products that have been obtained so far by the main department after the dendrogenesis experiment.

While these products have gained 'strength', they have also become more edible than their original form, and at most there has been a quantitative change in the transformation efficiency, so that the same share of food can be converted into more energy in their digestive system.

However, compared to the energy consumption generated by their own advancement, this increase in transformation efficiency is actually not enough for them to obtain the same high health maintenance ability on the basis of maintaining their original food consumption.

In other words, there has never been a qualitative change in the energy supply of the subject.

This situation, when considered in conjunction with the purpose of 'troll sublimation' itself, other than the pursuit of 'population uniformity', is actually not suitable for direct application.

And now the only feasible idea is to let the newborn troll babies and toddlers also gain the same light energy transformation ability as the advanced witch doctor....

Or, perhaps, to make this ability some kind of innate and more easily tappable potential, rather than being completely created from scratch as the witch doctors do.

After determining this series of steps and ideas, the witch doctors began to divide labor and cooperate, and collectively began to charge towards the finish line.

While the Ministry was busy preparing for foreign expeditions and the wars that followed, the witch doctors focused on overcoming all of the above difficulties and successes one after another.

Of course, success must be preceded by failure, and these studies are based on trial and error, but the specific failure process is not very visible in most of the relevant records of later generations, except for science-related books.

All in all, after a series of preconditions were resolved, it was finally time for the first troll experiment to begin.

~~~~

The sperm and eggs that are the target of research must have come from ordinary trolls, and they are stored in a diluted high-energy culture medium extracted from cave wolves, both during their active and dormant storage periods.

After that, an egg departs from the giant tree's 'egg bank', and after being warmed and activated, it follows the 'human's' oviduct to the 'egg sitting area';

The "egg sitting area" is a hyaline tumor that grows at the end of the vine, and it contains the prototype of a "plant placenta", and when the egg arrives in it, this "placenta" will begin to grow on its own, gradually becoming a material exchange space between the giant tree and the egg.

After the egg is stabilized, the sperm in the sperm bank also ends dormancy and travels down a separate duct to the tumor where the egg is located, where it is thrown into it and combines with the egg.

After this step, the tumor grows with the fertilized egg.....

If they are allowed to grow freely like this, then the witch doctors will inevitably get a more powerful, agile, and more edible 'high troll', and it is impossible to 'harvest' a elven troll.

As a result, more subtle changes are taking place in areas that are invisible to the naked eye.....

The 'plant placenta' mentioned earlier is not actually composed of pure plant tissues, and some special substances are preserved inside;

It is these substances that are the main inducement to gradually induce the fertilized egg to transform in the direction desired by the witch doctors in the process of self-division.
