Before entering the garden, Professor Li Qihuang once told the students that every plant and tree in the garden can be used as medicine, and every flower and leaf is precious and should not be damaged lightly.
Even the soil they stepped on contained abundant spiritual energy and was extremely precious.
But this does not mean that the animals and plants in the garden are fragile.
On the contrary, the rareness of magical plants is directly proportional to their danger. The more precious the magical plants, the more dangerous they are to wizards.
Zheng Qing realized this deeply when old man Stendhal led a group of freshmen along the field path toward the depths of the Herb Garden.
It was when the freshman team crossed the seventh field and passed through seven different environments that the team encountered a little trouble.
Because an earth dragon happened to be rolling and digging up the soil between the field ridges, for the sake of safety, the old man Stendhal asked the team to pause and wait for the earth dragon to roll out of their sight before leaving.
According to the explanation in the "Wizard Encyclopedia", Earth Dragon is an invertebrate annelid with low magic attributes. Although there is a dragon in its name, it is nothing like the kind of monster that can climb mountains and seas and has sharp fangs.
blood relation.
On the contrary, it is a relatively mild-tempered creature.
They have no eyes and noses and use intuition to judge the environment; they have no sharp teeth in their mouthparts, only layers of grate-like filters; they are surrounded by segments of hard skin and have no limbs, relying on the hard skin.
On the natural magic pattern activity.
Earth dragons are good at earth escape and like soil full of spiritual energy. They usually feed on small organisms in the soil that are invisible to the naked eye. Because they can absorb pollutants in the soil and balance the spiritual energy of the land, they are very popular among spiritual garden managers.
A young earth dragon is only about the size of an adult's arm, while an adult earth dragon can grow to tens of meters long and several feet thick. At this size, even a gentle creature will inevitably be jealous of other people with a larger body size.
Small creatures deal passive damage.
The earth dragon in front of me is nearly one meter thick.
At this moment, half of its body is buried in the soil, and the other half is swinging casually in the air.
Looking at that Huyouyou's body that looks like an iron rod, he's really half dead if he knocks on it, and vomits blood if he rubs it.
Therefore, this new team can only stay in place and wait for the earth dragon to leave as soon as possible.
The left side of this section of field ridge is a humid environment with drizzle and continuous drizzle, while the right side is filled with yellow sand blowing in the wind. There are no interesting plants in either environment.
Out of boredom, Li Meng discovered a strange flower.
That flower stood slantingly on the edge of the field ridge, neither entering the rainy world nor belonging to the yellow sand-filled sky.
It seems like an ordinary plant growing in the herb garden.
This plant has no leaves, and only has a fist-sized flower on its slender, bare stem. The flower is turned toward the ground, looking delicate and frail, as if a gust of wind can blow it over completely.
Li Meng glanced left and right.
Professor Li and Old Man Stendhal stood at the front of the team, monitoring the Earth Dragon who was relaxing, while Downton and Jiang Yu stood at the back of the team, maintaining order.
Some of the other people in the team were stretching their necks, trying to see clearly what the dark purple earth dragon with its body covered in slippery mucus looked like; some were closing their eyes to relax and savor this bizarre world.
That distinctive atmosphere; more people gathered together in twos and threes, chatting aimlessly.
For example, Zheng Qing was discussing with Xiao Xiao whether earth dragons were dragon creatures.
"If it is not a dragon, why call it an earth dragon?" Zheng Qing emphasized: "It is precisely because it has some characteristics of dragon species that it is called an earth dragon."
"Childish." Although Xiao Xiao didn't have his notebook, he still completely abused the public-funded student in front of him in terms of knowledge.
He crossed his arms, glanced at Zheng Qing, and mocked: "According to what you say, chinchilla should be moved out of the chinchilla family and placed under the genus Dragon... Even if it is a rodent; agave should also be
It grew sharp claws and a long tail, even though everyone knew it was a plant."
"Nonsense." Zheng Qing thought for a long time, but was unable to refute. He could only change the topic and asked: "Then tell me, why is the earth dragon called dragon?"
"Hey." Xiao Xiao turned away and did not answer the question.
"Excuse me," a weak voice sounded next to the two of them: "The earth dragon is so big, won't it cause damage to the environment in the garden?"
Zheng Qing turned his head, and Liu Feifei was looking at Xiao Xiao with a studious look on her face.
"Earth dragons are magical creatures and are good at earth escape." Xiao Xiao straightened his expression, without the slightest hint of contempt on his face: "When they enter the earth, their bodies will blend into the earth. Well, you can understand that they are part of the earth. In fact,
Not only will they not damage the spiritual land, they can also balance the soil and improve the soil quality. Therefore, every spiritual garden of a certain size will raise a group of earth dragons."
"That's it, thank you, thank you." Liu Feifei suddenly realized and thanked her repeatedly.
"I value sex over friends." Zheng Qing muttered to the side, scorning Xiao Xiao's attitude.
"This flower has seven colors!" A voice sounded not far away.
Zheng Qing followed the sound and saw Li Meng squatting on the edge of the field, shouting: "Come and see! Each petal has a color, and it keeps changing!"
"Li Meng!" Jiang Yu was originally maintaining order at the back of the team, but suddenly heard the little girl's cry and ran over in a hurry: "Didn't I tell you to stay in the team? Don't touch the flowers in the garden!"
She screamed the last words.
Because Li Mengzheng stretched out her white and tender fingers and gently poked the flowers in front of her.
"Tsk." It sounded like a deflating balloon.
Li Meng stood up, glanced at Jiang Yu blankly, and fell into her arms.
The girls screamed.
The freshmen immediately fell into chaos.
The front of the team.
Professor Li Qihuang and Uncle Stendhal were monitoring the passing earth dragon ahead.
"Did that old guy in the garden create a new earth dragon again?" Professor Li stood beside the old man Stendhal, squinting at the guy half of his body buried in the ground, and asked curiously: "It seems that this little dragon is
I'm afraid the guy is less than a year old."
"The old man is now sleeping in a ball nest deep in the garden all day long. How can he have the strength to split up the new little earth dragons." The old man Stendhal spat and curled his lips: "Some time ago, the special admissions of the Alpha College of Law were admitted.
'I sponsored dozens of small earth dragons for their botanical garden. As you know, their poor garden doesn't have a few acres of land... so the old man just gave me a few. I thought, anyway, the old man sleeps every day
, raise a few small ones, and share some of the burden with him, that’s all.”
Professor Li listened to the nagging explanation of the old man next to him, smiled slightly, and did not continue to speak.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the team behind the two.
When the professor rushed to Li Meng's side, the little girl had a dull look on her face, her eyes were staring blankly at the sky, and she had no reaction to the stimulation from the outside world.
