Astral Ants

Chapter 90: Blue Flowers Bloom (Fifth Watch)
Two days after Longbai evolved into the sixth age, Mo Lan fell into a deep sleep.

The God-bestowed Gorgon Seed was conceived in the life sac, and it took a little effort to wake up after 4 days.

After a few spring rains, the pond under the mountain is full.

The bottom of the pond has been fertilized once with biogas residue and humus.

Soak seeds.

Leave half pond water for sowing.

Mo Lan guards the pond around the clock.

Juniper stopped commanding the soldiers to collect stones, and surrounded the pond with three layers inside and three layers outside, and guarded it layer by layer.

Three days later,
Mo Lan flew to the throne of dominance: The seed bestowed by the Gorgon seed has germinated!

The vitality of the god-given seed strengthened by the life sac is extremely strong, and once it germinates, it will enter a stage of rapid growth.

Overnight,
Roots dig into the soil, and leaf buds are drawn out at the same time.

another day,
Cotyledons unfold.

After five days, the first true leaves surface.

Water is diverted from the reservoir above to replenish the pond.

After another five days, a second, more robust broad leaf grows, and the cotyledons run out of energy and wither.

Only three days later, the third leaf grows.

While the broad leaves on the water surface grow and develop, the rhizomes on the bottom of the water are also spreading rapidly.

The fourth and fifth leaves come out of water one after another.

Water is released from the reservoir above, and the large pond below is full.

The god-given seed of Gorgon is also a ramet development model.

The mother plant only grows 5 leaves and enters the stage of energy accumulation, followed by ramets.

Long Bai and Mo Lan were both a little nervous and looking forward to it.

The number of ramets for the first time and the magnification of ramets are particularly critical, which are related to the yield.

The strengthening effect has been determined, and the quality is probably not bad, it depends on whether the output is high or not.

……

The weather is getting hotter in the late spring season.

Daily,
Long Bai is controlling the soil transportation for the throne.

Surrounded by soldier ants, the giant cypress stationed in the south of the mountain hurried over.

"My lord! Good news! The seed bestowed by the Zhanlan God seems to have sprouted."

"Flower buds?"

"Seems to be--"

"it is good!"

With a flick of its tentacles, Longbai ordered the worker ants to rest where they were working, and greeted them:

"Junbai, the seed bestowed by the azure blue gods is about to bloom. Go and have a look!"

The dragon cypress controls the reigning throne, carrying molant, juniper, juniper, and giant cypress, flying over the mountains, heading straight to the Shannan pond, suspended on the water.

"Zhanlan..."

Long Bai greeted, his mental power swept across, and his tentacles trembled.

Mo Lan also found a problem, "Longbai, why only 6 leaves bloom?"

Long Bai asked, "Zhanlan, why only the six lower leaves bloom?"

Zhanlan: "I don't know..."

Zhan Lan asked back: "Long Bai, is there any question?"

Long Bai: "No problem, it's just a little strange..."

Cypresses, black orchids, junipers, junipers, and giant cypresses began to count the number of flower buds at the same time.

At present, the Zhanlan God Bestowed Planting Tree is nearly ten meters high, and the 15th broad leaf is about to unfold. The size of the tree is quite considerable.

The broad leaves at the bottom are the largest, with a diameter of about 2.5 meters. On the criss-cross dark blue veins, there are sparsely distributed green spots the size of sesame seeds.

These green dots are the buds that are just emerging.

The first broad leaf has the largest number, 59.

The number of second broad leaves is next, with 53.

The third piece, the fourth piece, the fifth piece, and the sixth piece are in descending order, respectively 47 flowers, 43 flowers, 41 flowers, and 37 flowers.

A total of 280, that is to say, the output of this batch of blue fruit is 280.

Based on the price of a single 13 rough stones sold to Bai Wei, that is 3640 rough stones.

The flower and fruit cycle of Zhanlan Godsend Seed is 2 years.

All calculated, the income is similar to that of Molan's Fruit Fragrant Orchid God-bestowed Seed.

Mo Lan: "280 flowers! Long cypress, how much can you sell them for?"

Long Bai sighed: "Based on the price sold to the caravan, 3640 rough stones."

Mo Lan thought for a while, and said happily, "That's great! The azure blue god-given seed is continuing to grow, and next time, its yield will be even higher."

Long cypress shook its tentacles, looked up, and asked: so many leaves, why only the six lower leaves bloom and bear fruit?
Juniper, juniper, and giant cypress shook their tentacles to express their incomprehension.

Mo Lan thought hard, and asked: "Long Bai, I remember, you said when you got the seed bestowed by the azure blue god, what kind of contract is there?"

Long Bai: "Yes. The creator civilization is a method similar to our Zerg life sac to breed life species..."

Long Bai understood what Mo Lan meant.

Possibly a contractual relationship.

It may also be that the contract plus the life sac bred the life seed, and the double connection produced some kind of mutation.

It could be said that the flowering and fruiting of the Zhanlan God-given Seed had something to do with his own cultivation.

It may also be one of the reasons why Zhanlanguo is super good.

Long Bai: "Forget about it for now, I'll understand after I'm promoted to a high-level ant king."

Long Bai looked around the pond.

In the shallow water area by the pond, the rice sown in early spring has grown into large green seedlings.

A large number of locusts were attracted.

In turn, many frogs are attracted, lurking for food.

The leaves of the black lotus and gorgon that were sown separately in the north and south have emerged from the water, and it is believed that they will grow to a large scale soon.

Scanning mentally, you can also find fish and shrimp moving at the bottom of the pond.

Vibrant, thriving pond.

"Zhanlan, do you need top dressing?"

Long Bai asked.

Zhanlan: "Let's get some marsh water."

"it is good."

Long Bai turned his head and started to arrange.

The spring is short, and the dam project cannot be stopped. Junbai leads the worker ants to hurry up and work.

The god-given seed of Gorgon has grown, and it is enough to arrange 50 specialized soldier ants around it, plus 50 large and medium-sized soldier ants for garrison.Juniper brought soldiers and ants to the Shannan Reservoir, guarding the seeds bestowed by the azure blue gods.

The giant cypress still guards the territory on the mountain.

Long Bai and Mo Lan top-dressed Zhan Lan.

Plants from alien civilizations are full of weirdness.

Seven days later, the azure blue god-given seed never saw any buds growing. It grew suddenly overnight, bloomed at midnight, and quickly withered in the morning.

When the juniper notices the change, the leaves are covered with sesame-sized fruits.

When the news spread to the north of the mountain, Long Bai and Mo Lan came to check it out, amazed.

……

Early summer when hibiscus flowers bloom in the northern part of the mountain.

early in the morning,

Cypresses and junipers came out of the nest and led the ant colony down the mountain.

"Long cypress! The seed bestowed by the Gorgon seed will be branched immediately!"

Day and night, Mo Lan, who was standing by the pond, flew over.

Long Bai was subconsciously elated, and then realized that Mo Lan was not in a happy mood, so he hurriedly asked, "How many plants?"

Mo Lan: "The description of the inheritance memory is correct. The yield of Gorgon is very low, and only 3 underground stems were derived from the first division."

"That's three branches?"

Long Bai was also a little disappointed.

The number of initial ramets is the basis for the development of subsequent ramets and a key factor in determining yield.

For example, the God-given Seed of Guoxianglan has 7 branches for the first time, with a 3-fold rate of division. When Mo Lan was promoted to an intermediate fighter, 21 new divisions were added, and the next division will be 63.

The first division of Gorgon God-given Seed is only 3. If it is also a 3-fold division, then the number of new divisions in the second division is only 9, and the number of new divisions in the third division is only 27.

Corresponding to Molan's intermediate and advanced fighter cultivation, the number of branches of Guoxianglan and Gorgon Seed is the difference between 21 and 9, and the difference between 63 and 27.

"fine……"

Long Bai comforted: "Now you don't have to worry about too many branches, the pond can't hold it anymore."

Mo Lan said quietly: "Long Bai, is the pond too small?"

"Forehead--"

Is 12 meters long on a side still small?Long Bai comforted again: "Don't be discouraged, Mo Lan, maybe it's a 5x or 7x growth rate."

"That's right!" Mo Lan was even more worried, and said worriedly:

"Would the pond not be able to accommodate so many branches? Longbai, expand the pond for the seed bestowed by the God Gorgon."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai had no choice but to raise his head to observe and measure, pondered, and agreed: "Okay. Expand the east and south sides by 3 meters. I'll make arrangements for it."
