This experimental site arranged on farmland mainly consists of two parts.
One part is a semi-sealed contaminated farmland covered by a witch formation, while the other part is a sealed laboratory.
Xue Lai was standing next to the farmland at this moment. When she saw Colin walking in, she pointed at the dried remains of the bean sprouts on the ground and said:
"The sixty-seventh newly planted plant also withered last night."
If you want to solve the divine pollution of farmland, you first need to understand what pollution is.
This "what" includes not only the nature of pollution, but also its manifestations and the ways it affects crops.
Therefore, Xuelai and Colin have been doing one thing these days, which is to test the degree to which different plants are affected by farmland pollution, that is, the length of time it takes to be completely contaminated, the degree of pollution at different times, etc.
Until now, all plants have behaved in basically the same way: they will wither completely within three hours at most.
Among them, the time required for wheat to be completely contaminated is the shortest, only ten minutes.
"Yeah." Colin nodded lightly, walked closer and leaned over to observe the bean sprouts on the ground, and then asked: "Are there any abnormalities in those death row prisoners who eat withered food?"
"No." Xue Lai shook his head, "Except for diarrhea, there are no other abnormalities. It is certain that the divine pollution in the farmland only targets plants."
Colin stood up, pondered for a moment, and then made up his mind.
He turned around and said in a deep voice to Xue Lai:
"It's time to conduct further research. We can't get much useful information from what we have now."
"Are you going to try to research it yourself?" A trace of worry appeared on Xue Lai's face.
"Well, don't worry, I have engraved the glorious wall on the spiritual sea last night." Colin comforted, "Shortly facing farmland pollution should not have much impact on me. If something goes wrong, I will stop in time.
.”
"...Pay attention to your safety, I will be there to assist you." Xue Lai paused and said, feeling a little surprised.
It usually takes at least several months to master a third-level witchcraft from scratch. If you master it to the extent that it can be engraved into the spiritual sea, it will take even longer.
However, Colin's talent was now a well-known fact. Xue Lai was not too surprised. After nodding lightly, he and Colin walked towards the closed laboratory nearby.
"Although I have seen you demonstrate your strong resistance to dirty words before, ordinary contact and concentrated research are two different things. You still need to be more careful."
Walking in the silver-white passage, Xue Lai couldn't help but warned again.
That day in Neustadt, when Colin came to her and suggested that he might be able to help with farmland pollution, she didn't believe it at first.
Because dirty gibbering is difficult to observe and study, this is the consensus of all wizards.
Even a wizard as powerful as Noins cannot break this rule.
This is also the reason why when the wizards of the Supreme Council realized that the divine pollution of farmland was very similar in nature to the filthy nonsense spread by the same gods, they decisively gave up on saving the farmland.
But after Colin finished speaking, he immediately proved to her that he was unusually resistant to filthy words and was different from ordinary wizards.
Although I don’t know how Colin did it, he was indeed not affected by the dirty words after leaving the physical shelter.
This shocked Xue Lai greatly, and at the same time, it also touched her heart - Colin was willing to share such special information with her, and the trust in it was beyond words.
But for Colin, Xuelai and he have known each other for several years, communicate closely with each other, and are trustworthy friends.
Xue Lai indeed lived up to his trust and never mentioned this matter to anyone.
In fact, Colin felt that even if he believed in the wrong person, it wouldn't actually matter... In this world, what's more tragic than trusting the wrong person is that he can't even find anyone he can trust.
"I will." Colin paused for a moment and nodded seriously to Xue Lai, not daring to be careless.
When he was a second-level senior wizard, his soul was already as clear as a third-level wizard.
After advancing to the third level, Colin was even more surprised to find that in addition to his originally clear soul, it was covered with a layer of white gauze that seemed to be inlaid with shining stars.
The existence of this veil directly allowed him to transcend the adaptation stage that the third-level junior wizard often had to go through when he first started to separate his soul from the body.
After his soul left the body for the first time in the quiet room, he was able to ignore the filthy nonsense from the outside world and leave the body at will.
And during this process, there was no biting chill, unbearable burning pain, or the panic that seemed to be dissipating in the air that other wizards felt.
The separated soul is like an ordinary body, stable and practical.
That veil, Colin discovered in his later research, should be the product of willpower, spiritual power, and a mixture of human nature and knowledge.
Among them, the power of will plays a decisive role in forming the starry veil, integrating the spiritual power emanating from the soul and the aura of humanity and knowledge existing on the surface of the body.
The magical effect of the veil is not only reflected in resisting dirty words, this is his biggest gain after advancing to the third level wizard.
It is also because of this that he was able to possess power far beyond that of a third-level junior wizard when he first advanced!
In addition, this also gave him the confidence to tell Xue that he could help solve farmland pollution.
Walking into the room deep in the laboratory, there are several groups of contaminated soil collected from different farmland stored in front of the silver experimental table.
Colin brought one of the boxes to his eyes and slowly opened it.
Xue Lai stood aside quietly, her eyes firmly fixed on Colin's figure.
The latter took a deep breath, blessed himself with a glorious wall, and began to try to study it.
The impact of dirty talk will change.qqxδnew
For ordinary people, they are very little affected by dirty talk, because most of them are not even aware of the existence of dirty talk.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! For wizards, especially those who become senior wizard apprentices and can activate super-sense, after seeing dirty words, they will obviously feel the effects of dirty words.
The impact has become much greater.
At this time, if you try to carefully observe and distinguish those black spots that seem to be completely gray when you turn on your super-sense, then the pollution caused by dirty talk will be further expanded.
To put it simply, the pollution of dirty words will become stronger with the deepening of contact.
This so-called "deep contact" is actually a very idealistic concept.
It does not depend on the means of observation, nor on the way of cognition, but only on subjective consciousness.
Dirty gibbering is like something that exists only in legends and cannot be seen directly, far beyond the scope of what wizards can currently understand.
And this characteristic that cannot be studied in depth also determines that wizards have no way to deal with it.
Thoughts in Xue Lai's mind flashed randomly.
About an hour later, Colin carefully placed the glass cover containing the contaminated soil tightly back on the corner of the table, then lifted the radiant wall and walked towards the snow.
His face was extremely pale, and his eyes were bloodshot, but his eyes were still clear, and the expression on his face was joyful, and he even smiled.
However, this smile not only failed to dispel Xue Lai's worries, but also made her heart tighten, and she subconsciously asked:
"How do you feel now?"
"I feel pretty good." Colin smiled, "I can indeed resist the contaminating effects of research for a short period of time.
It’s just that the pollution sources in farmland are mixed together, like a haze, so it’s a bit difficult to see the specific situation clearly.”
Xue Lai nodded and said worriedly: "I'll do a mental state assessment on you first."
"Yeah." Colin nodded calmly.
Even if he feels that everything is normal and there are no problems at the moment, the necessary steps still need to be carried out.
After about ten minutes, it was confirmed that the test results were all normal, and Xue Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then there was time to focus on what Colin just said.
"Have you seen the sources of pollution in the soil?" Xue Lai asked.
"Yes." Colin nodded and affirmed: "The fundamental cause of plant pollution is the soil. Those pollution sources do not react with the air or the like, but directly enter the plants."
The conditions required for plant growth are water, light, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, phosphorus and other elements.
They had previously speculated on the mechanisms of farmland pollution.
In addition to the most popular speculation - that pollution is like some kind of poison that can directly contaminate plants and cause them to gradually wither upon contact, they also put forward other speculations -
Farmland pollution may not directly affect the plants, but may affect the necessary conditions for the growth of certain plants, such as light, carbon dioxide, etc.
However, according to Colin's observation, although it cannot be ruled out whether farmland pollution affects plant growth indirectly or directly, at least two factors in the indirect effect - light and carbon dioxide - can be ruled out.
These factors in the air are not affected by farmland pollution and continue to provide energy and nutrients to plants.
Hearing Colin's answer, Xue Lai couldn't help but feel joy on his face:
"Great, as long as we can observe the pollution of gods, we will be able to find a solution sooner or later!"
"Yes, but it may take some time." Colin smiled, unable to hide the tiredness on his face.
"I need a break."
Colin now almost understands his limits.
He is not completely immune to the filthy gossip spread by the gods and the pollution of farmland, but he is just extremely resistant.
It's so high that ordinary contact can no longer have any impact.
But it was not enough. Now that he was trying to study it seriously, he clearly felt the pressure like a tide brought by the pollution of the gods.
After only persisting for an hour, I had to take a break and look inside my soul. The gauze covering the stars outside had become a few layers thinner.
'As the research deepens, this pressure will probably get bigger and bigger...' Colin walked to the corner of the laboratory and sat down, still feeling a little worried.
'It seems that the knight's training needs to spend more time and improve the power of will as much as possible.'
"Just rest in bed."
Xue Lai got up and went out while he was sitting cross-legged in the corner. When he came back, he brought back a soft single bed with quilts.
"Thank you." Colin opened his eyes and did not refuse. He really needed a good rest.
"You're welcome." Xue Lai shook his head, "Now you are the only one who can observe farmland pollution, and I can't help you much..."
"Your accumulation of witchcraft knowledge far exceeds mine. When the time comes to figure out the characteristics of pollution and research solutions, I will need to rely on you."
Colin smiled and lay on the bed.
Before he fell asleep completely, he suddenly thought - since he can observe farmland pollution, can he also observe and study the dirty talk that is very similar in nature?
…
Time flies and it’s August.
The scorching sun is shining in the sky, and the clouds in the sky seem to be whiter than in other seasons.
"Hurry up and work hard. The ten people who perform best tonight can get a small piece of black bread!"
North of Golden Wheat Ear.
Outside the city wall, there used to be only a few shabby serf huts in the wilderness, but now several huge wooden frames have been erected.
'If the farmland can be restored, this will be a good food processing factory or a large granary.'
Colin passed by and took a look on his way to the laboratory, thinking to himself.
The obedience of the serfs was much higher than he imagined. They did not need wages at all, and they did not care how tiring the work was. As long as they had food and housing, they were satisfied.
This period of time really saved him a lot of worry and allowed him to spend more time studying farmland pollution.
Arriving at the hidden experimental location, Colin reached the deepest part of the laboratory with ease.
Xue Lai was lying down writing something. Judging from the amount of manuscript paper piled next to him, he must have been up all night again.
"You should also pay attention to rest." Colin couldn't help but remind him.
"I will, but a long time has passed, and the information you gave is enough to carry out research..." Xue Lai raised his head and smiled, his face unchanged, but his smooth snow hair was a bit rough, revealing the owner's fatigue.
Colin said no more and walked quickly to the experimental table.
I don't know if he was stimulated by Xue Lai's words, but he felt that his condition today was particularly good, and he even felt that the pressure of the god's pollution in front of him was less.
About an hour and a half later, Colin quit the research, with a look of joy on his face.
Xue Lai has been waiting aside for a long time, with some worry on his face, "Why did you study for half an hour longer than usual today?"
"I understand the mechanism of farmland pollution!" Colin did not answer, but said excitedly to her,
"This time I finally eliminated all the remaining factors and determined that farmland pollution did not indirectly affect plant growth, but directly caused the withering of plants.
Moreover, I also observed a special phenomenon. Farmland pollution does not enter the plants with water or other elements, but enters actively!"
Xue Lai was slightly startled, and then his face also lit up with joy.
This may not seem like a big discovery, but in fact it is at least a staged achievement for the study of farmland pollution!
They are one step closer to successfully solving farmland pollution!
