wizards start with occlumency

Chapter 136 Clear and strange brain holes, major progress

Hard food?

Everyone was stunned for a while before they came to their senses.

It turned out that it was the eldest sister who helped to fund it, and the boss had the research funds.

This statement is quite funny.

Everyone wanted to laugh immediately, but held back, not daring to laugh out loud.

After all, he is a boss, so it's not good to laugh at him like that, right?
Buck's head shrank.

It's over, it's over, he's done it again.

The boss gave a passionate and inspirational speech, but after the last reversal, he was not passionate at all, let alone inspirational.

The effect played is seriously inconsistent with the original intention of the boss.

"Laugh if you want."

Seeing how hard it was for everyone to hold back their laughter, Link took the initiative to say so, which was very magnanimous.

The reason why he suddenly said a sentence that was extremely inconsistent with the character design was to make everyone laugh.

After all, the tunnel is underground. Although there are discarded magic stones as light sources, it is not dark.

However, people are involuntarily affected by the cramped and low environment, which makes them easily depressed and amplifies negative emotions.

Link saw that the cheering speech had no effect, so he turned to trying to be funny.

I hope this way can ease the mood of the players.

Sure enough, there was good feedback this time.

Seeing that Link really didn't care, everyone didn't hold back forcibly, and laughed lightly.

The previous gloomy atmosphere was swept away.

Everyone's mood is much more relaxed.

Jasmine couldn't help but give Link a sideways glance, she didn't like this statement very much.

After waiting for a while, after everyone's emotions stabilized, Jasmine explained:

"How can there be any soft method to defeat him? I invested 5 magic stones, but he only used 2.5. I finally got back 30 magic stones. This return on investment is very high, right? That's not all."

After speaking, Jasmine met everyone's curious eyes and continued: "His subsequent research has brought me along, whether it is the signature of the 'paper' or the rights and interests of the 'patent', I have my share."

Jasmine raised Xue Nen's chin slightly, and said in a proud tone, "Tell me, is my investment worthwhile?"

Everyone was silent when they heard the words, not knowing how to express their feelings for a while.

you still need to ask?

It must be worth it.

It’s super worthwhile.

The emotions of the five brothers are more complicated than those of the three.

Thinking back, how much effort they had put in to get on Link's thick leg.

The eldest sister has a good head, she doesn't have to pay anything, and she has her share in every good deed.

The difference between people is really too big.

woohoo~
At least three of the five dear friends seemed to hear their own cries.

That's all tears.

The three of them understood why Link was willing to bring Jasmine with him in everything.

It turns out that there is such a relationship.

Well……

I can’t say that their ideas are wrong, I can only say that they are too one-sided.

After such a commotion, everyone's attention has been completely diverted, and they are no longer obsessed with research setbacks and difficult experiments.

While drinking, eating, and resting, they started talking and laughing.

Dalton, who took the initiative to disappear for a day, took the opportunity to find Link.

He is responsible for monitoring the surrounding area in real time. The work is very important, but also very boring.

"Anything?"

As soon as Dalton came over, Link immediately asked him to sit next to him, handed him a glass of water, and asked with concern.

"Ah."

Dalton nodded, took the water glass, took a sip of the sweet purified water made by the boss himself, and then said:

"Lanny Taylor showed up a few more times.

First, I wanted to reproduce our method of crossing the river, but the length of the rope was not enough, and there was no tool to send the rope over.

Later, she wanted to glide over, but was driven back by the fierce beast in the water. "

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

When Dalton mentioned the beast in the water, Link suddenly remembered a strange thing.

Or to put it more appropriately, it is a characteristic of this world.

Herbivorous animals are relatively normal in size, whether compared to Link's previous life or compared to the wizarding world.

Carnivorous animals get bigger and bigger one by one.

When I first entered this world and met Iris Clark, the group of beasts that looked like jackals but were much taller looked like this; (see Chapter 4 of this volume)
So the wild beasts dodged along the way;
When rescuing Dalton, Andrea Norman, Lutz Berry, and Bamir Balves, the giant beasts resembling Tyrannosaurus rex were drawn away like this;
Even the beast in the water that looked like a crocodile but more than doubled in size in the river was the same.

This phenomenon is definitely not normal!
Don't worry about Lanny Taylor for now, there are more important things right now.

"Ask everyone a question."

Link immediately stood up, clapped his hands to attract attention, and then said loudly, "In your impression, what are the characteristics of the sizes of herbivorous animals and carnivorous animals in this world?"

The sudden question really stumped a circle of people.

Especially Jasmine who has never been out of Jiangxin Sandbar.

After a while, Lynn, who had the clearest mind, was the first to react.

He stood up in shock and asked in shock: "Boss, do you think that the size of carnivorous animals is too large and seems abnormal?"

This is a point that most people easily overlook.

After all, every world is different from every world.

The animals are larger because they have enough food and nutrition, or they are born that way.

This contrast would be difficult to detect without subdividing the animals and studying herbivores and carnivores separately.

It's like pricking a layer of window paper.

The rest of the people also understood what Link wanted to convey.

There were discussions.

"Why is that?"

"There must be a problem here, and it is worth looking into."

"Understanding the reason may be very helpful to our plan."

"Then how do we go about it? Hunt one or two giant beasts, dissect them, slice them up?"

"It's not impossible, it's just a little troublesome."

"Aren't there big and fierce fish in the river? Catch a few fish and study them first."

Meade Valent did not participate in the discussion, but frowned and pondered until the discussion gradually died down.

He stood up slowly, and said in a low voice: "Boss, I have a guess, I don't know if I should tell it or not."

"Speak, of course."

Link stretched out his hand to signal Meade Valent to speak boldly, and at the same time made a further statement,

"I emphasize again that we are a team. During internal discussions and brainstorming, anyone, any idea, any point of view can speak out. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Never, never, never be afraid of making mistakes."

"Thank you boss."

Meade raised his thick and big hands to scratch the back of his head, smiled shyly, and then expressed his guess,

"In fact, I have been thinking, if the content of the murals in the secret passage is true, then where are the corpses of the dead gods? The whole world, eaten by predators."

hiss……

There was a sound of inhalation.

This guess is very bold, and the brain hole is very clear.

But I have to say that there is also the possibility of establishment, and it is extremely large.

As we all know, the full name of the college is River South College of Biology and Medicine.

How to cultivate and utilize organisms better, more comprehensively, and more efficiently is one of the specialties of the college.

Even if the first grade has not involved related subjects, I have heard of it.

For example, the dead body of Storm Sea New Blood who died in the black district of West City will be recycled by the college, dismembered and dismembered to make up for the loss and recover the investment.

Therefore, everyone present quickly accepted and approved Mead's guess.

As a god, as a higher creature, isn't it very simple for its corpse to be eaten by carnivorous animals to promote body growth?
Jasmine sighed: "No wonder I can't do anything to deal with those ferocious beasts in the water. They are all rough-skinned and thick-flesh. Except for self-exploding fire thunder, all attack and witchcraft can't break the defense. It turns out that they ate something good!"

This sentence immediately aroused Dalton's sad past.

He, Andrea, Lutz Berri, and Bamir Balves were crushed and fled in a panic precisely because they couldn't break through the defense of the six giant beasts, and were finally blocked into the valley.

There is no way to heaven, no way to enter the earth.

If it wasn't for Link's rescue, he would have been eliminated.

Link couldn't help but recall the situation when he and Iris teamed up to lure away the six giant beasts.

Iris threw so many self-explosive fire mines of various models, but they didn't even explode the skin of the giant beast.

That level of firepower is almost the same as the firepower used by Trish Lucia to bombard the col.

Even if Link is wearing the "Defender 3202" suit, he can't resist the "Double Casting", "Consecutive Casting", and "Parallel Casting" with the Water Shield.

It is not possible to "die" on the spot, and it will definitely be seriously injured.

Based on all the signs, Link also tends to agree with Meade Valente's conjecture.

Then the problem is coming again.

Link lowered his hands slightly, motioning for everyone to stop whispering.

After calming down, Link asked: "Assuming Meade's guess is true, the reason why carnivorous animals are generally huge is because they eat the corpses of the dead gods in this world.

So, is there any connection between this phenomenon and this reason, and this world is on the verge of extinction?
Does it help or inspire us to reconstruct a sustainable ecological cycle system? "

These two questions were raised, which triggered a climax of low-pitched discussions among the people.

Lin En has a lot of thoughts and quick brains, and once again responded first: "Boss, I think we can temporarily ignore the connection with the world that is on the verge of being broken, and focus on helping and inspiring us."

"Hmm. Okay."

Link had other thoughts in his mind, but he didn't refute Lynn's statement.

After receiving approval, Lynn continued: "Carnivorous animals are huge in size, and their daily consumption naturally increases, and the quantity and quality of food they need to eat increase accordingly.

This breaks the original ecological cycle.

There must have been a period of sharp decline in the number of herbivores.

The surviving herbivores were forced to evolve in order to survive longer.

This also needs to consume energy and nutrients, so we must eat more grass.

The vicious circle of ecology is further deepened.

In addition, since the reason for the huge size of carnivorous animals is to eat the corpses of the gods in this world, what about plants?
Don't plants absorb flesh and blood?

I think there should be.

At least partially. "

After hearing this, Ezio immediately asked in a muffled voice: "Then, how can we explain that the size of herbivorous animals generally has not undergone drastic changes?"

Lynn answered calmly:

"The plants that absorbed the flesh and blood of the gods evolved, for example, those that had no thorns grew thorns, the short ones became taller, the non-aggressive ones became aggressive, and so on.

Many changes made it impossible for those herbivores to bite.

This is also the nature of plants to survive.

Herbivores lacked high-quality food sources and evolved much slower than carnivores and plants that directly absorbed the flesh and blood of the gods. "

"What you said makes sense."

Ezio, with a blunt personality, was persuaded and immediately admitted.

Others also found Lynn's claim to have some logic.

Buck, who was talkative but kept silent, got up and spoke:

“I think we can try to restructure the ecosystem from two aspects at the same time.

One is to cultivate herbivorous animals so that they have the ability to eat most plants, especially the plants that have absorbed the flesh and blood of the gods and become special;

It also gives them a certain ability to escape from predators.

The second is to cultivate basic and unchanged plants. I remember that the boss had a 'paper', which mentioned a method of cross breeding, which may be useful.

Changed the food quality of herbivores from the bottom, allowing their evolution to catch up with carnivores.

In order to restore a balanced ecological cycle. "

Whether it is feasible or not needs to be verified again, at least it has something to say.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

Whether it's the other people or Link, they all applaud consciously, giving a thumbs up to Buck, who is rare in business.

Buck grinned, a little proudly, and sat back.

Seeing that everyone had no other thoughts or opinions to express, Link made a summary and made work arrangements.

"Everyone's thoughts, opinions, and guesses, I have synthesized them.

Then based on the comprehensive conclusions, the following arrangements are made.

If there are omissions or mistakes, please feel free to raise them and we will correct them together.

First, speed up the analysis and detection of existing water samples, soil, and biological specimens, find out the materials that have undergone special changes, analyze the reasons for the changes, and verify Mead's guess;

If it is true that the corpses of the gods caused the gigantic size of carnivorous animals, it is impossible that there are no traces in water samples, soil, plant specimens, and animal specimens.

this point is very important.

Then, various methods are used to cultivate common plants in order to meet the feeding needs of most herbivorous animals and provide sufficient energy and nutrients;

Finally, reconstruct the ecosystem from three different directions.

The first is based on the improvement of plant 'genes', the second is based on the improvement of herbivorous animal 'genes', and the third is based on the devastating blow to carnivorous animals. "

As he said that, Link looked at Jasmine: "I will continue to work hard on you tomorrow and build another large laboratory."

"no problem."

Jasmine readily agreed.

"Buck, Lynn, take Mead and Terry with you tomorrow and catch two big fish. You will die for the rest of your life."

"Okay, boss."

"Ezio, Dijie, you take Betty to continue today's experiment, be patient, take your time, we have plenty of time."

"Yes, boss. We will pay attention to adjusting our mentality in time."

"Dalton, continue to be responsible for reconnaissance and keep an eye on Lanny Taylor. If she appears by the river again, notify me immediately."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission."

Jasmine noticed that Link had talked around and missed himself, so she asked aloud, "What about you? What are you doing tomorrow?"

Link replied: "I'm going to go out to find someone and do something?"

"Going to find the crazy girl?"

Jasmine's complexion became slightly unnatural, her teeth slightly biting her lower lip.

Link said frankly: "I'm really planning to go to Iris. Some things need to be cooperated with people in the North District to advance better."

"Is it important? Do you have to find it?"

Jasmine couldn't help asking another question.

"Then you go, pay attention to safety."

After saying that, she regretted a little, and said:
"Remember to come back early."
