The super lord of the island

Chapter 46 046. The Corrupt Flame Mushroom
"Great!"

Jialan was delighted.

"Growth gift packs and resource tasks are actually hidden in the vip function. They are very important functions in the early stage! Upgrade to vip1 and activate it."

Soon Jialan's complexion fell again, because the premise of activation was to recharge and consume 100 magic shells, and now he only used 24 magic shells in total, which is still far away.

"The time for the next transaction is very close. I hope that I can earn more magic shells by then, but the expenses are also very high. I need to buy slaves, store food, and spend money on everything. Auguste doesn't know how to return it. It's a matter of going out early and returning late all day long, and it's mysterious, so I hope you don't mess with me."

The sea level rises and sets, and time slips away day by day.

The barren village is a bit boring. As the leader of a leader, Jialan has almost zero daily entertainment. If he can occasionally amuse the little maid to relieve boredom, he will almost become moldy.

Just when Jialan thought that this situation would last until the merchant ship Provence came to trade, a headache happened in the village.

……

……

In the flame mushroom cultivation shed, the atmosphere was very dignified, and no one dared to take a breath.

"What's going on here." Jialan's face was gloomy, and his tone was not kind. Everyone could feel the lord's suppressed anger at this time.

"I'm sorry, my lord. My subordinates don't know what's going on. It was fine yesterday, but today."

Wali knelt down on his knees, stammering, obviously frightened.

The flame mushroom was handed over to him by Jialan himself, and he also cultivated it himself. After more than 20 days of painstaking care, ten clusters of flame mushroom seeds have grown to 50 clusters. I thought I would be praised by the lord, but this morning the cultivation shed The scene made Wally's heart cold for a while.

Of the 50 clusters of intact flame mushrooms, 13 clusters were moldy and rotten, and 20 clusters showed signs of withering. If no immediate intervention was made, they would soon moldy and wither, losing any supernatural properties. As for the remaining 17 clusters that seemed to be intact Clusters, maybe when it will be their turn.

Wali wiped off the sweat from his face and continued to report to Jialan.

"My subordinates have just conducted a comprehensive inspection on the abnormal state of the flame mushroom. The culture medium is normal, the humidity is normal, and there is no pest damage, but it happens."

Jialan waved his hand to interrupt the nonsense, and walked to a cluster of flame mushrooms to observe carefully.

Flame mushrooms look similar to ordinary straw mushrooms. The leaves are thick and umbrella-shaped. The difference is that there are more red lines, which are very bright.

Looking at the blackened and rotten flame mushrooms, Jialan suddenly felt heartbroken, this is all money, try using magic first.

Jialan raised her hand and brewed a recovery spell to hit the rotten flame mushroom. After observing for a while, she found that there was no change, so she turned her head and said, "Could it be that there is something wrong with your cultivation method?"

"This…"

Wally was at a loss for words for a while, and he only heard from his instructor that the cultivation method of flame mushrooms is similar to that of straw mushrooms, and he has never actually operated it. Maybe there is something wrong with one of the steps.

"Forget it, you don't have to blame yourself too much." Jialan said considerately, "After all, magic plants can't be cultivated casually. I'm afraid there is only one way to solve the problem now. You stay and continue to observe. The others will follow me. leave."

Jialan's solution is very simple, that is to seek the help of Auguste. After all, judging from the magical attainments shown by the other party, it should not be difficult to solve the problem of the growth of flame mushrooms.

After a while, Jialan came to August's stone house, and the door was closed tightly.

"My lord, the wheat bran who was on guard at night said that Master August did not return all night last night." Butler Mag whispered in his ear.

"You won't leave, will you? Send someone to guard here. If you find that Master August is back, let me know as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Just when Jialan was about to go back to the castle to find another way, he bumped into August who was returning head-on. He looked a little tired, but his breezy demeanor remained unchanged.

"Oh! Young lord, are you waiting for me on a special trip?"

"Yes, I have encountered some difficulties and need to ask you for help." Jialan said straight to the point.

"In terms of magic?"

Before August Ente told Jialan that he could come to the stone house to learn natural magic, subconsciously thinking that it was related to spells.

"No, it's a problem with a batch of flame mushrooms I cultivated, and it's in the mushroom shed at the entrance of the village."

"You actually found a magic plant. You are very lucky." Auguste commented casually, "Although the flame mushroom is not a very easy species to cultivate, it is better than nothing. Take me to have a look."

Nurturing shed

August Ent's inspection was completed, but it wasn't actually an inspection. He only took a few glances and found the problem.

"Little guy, did you cultivate this flame mushroom?"

"It's me." Wally nodded tremblingly, "My mentor told me that there is no difference between cultivating flame mushrooms and straw mushrooms."

"Hehe! There is indeed no difference between them, but your instructor must have missed one thing."

Auguste stroked his gray beard, then picked up a cluster of nearly half-rotted flame mushrooms, and pointed at the roots.

"Flame mushrooms are hot in nature, and although they are easy to reproduce, the number of hyphae in each cluster should not exceed 300 strands, otherwise the elemental energy contained in them will burn themselves and cause corruption.

If you don’t believe me, you can count them. The number of withered flame mushroom mycelium must exceed this number. It is also very simple to solve it. Separate the extra mycelium and transplant it to other pits. The original rotten part will not take long recover. "

Master Auguste easily solved the problem that plagued Wall-E and saved the flame mushroom cultivation shed. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he saved Aurora Village.

"Lord Jialan, if I'm not mistaken, you plan to expand the number of flame mushrooms to be cultivated next."

Facing Augent's question, Jialan gave an affirmative answer without thinking too much.

Unexpectedly, Auguste sighed.

"Sigh~ It's purely an amateur idea. Human beings always like to only look at the immediate interests when doing things. If the flame mushrooms were really so easy to cultivate, the market would have flooded the market."

"Flame mushroom is a magical plant. It absorbs elemental energy in the air during the growth process to form extraordinary characteristics. It inherits the advantages of spore plants, with tenacious vitality and fast reproduction.

They are like hungry villains, absorbing the elemental energy in the surrounding environment all the time. The more the flame mushrooms multiply, the faster the elemental energy will be absorbed. "

Under August's description, Jia Lan quickly guessed the consequences.

There is a term in academia to describe this phenomenon—elemental desert, which describes an area where elemental energy is extremely thin or even zero.

And the flame mushroom is a magical plant that can create elemental deserts.

There are two factors restricting the reproduction of wild flame mushrooms:
One is the self-burning caused by mycelium enrichment mentioned by Auguste;

The second is that when the element concentration drops to a certain level, the flame mushroom will stagnate and reproduce, and then decompose into the most primitive spore form, waiting for the energy of the elements in the environment to recover.

Therefore, if you cultivate flame mushrooms artificially, you can pay attention to the above two points.

Before leaving, Auguste decided to be a good person and tell Jialan and others directly.

"Under the premise of not affecting the energy concentration of the elements in the environment, the number of flame mushroom clusters that exist at the same time must not exceed two hundred clusters, no matter how harmful it is, it will not be beneficial."

Then, without waiting for Jialan to say thanks, Auguste left quickly, as if there was something urgent.
