Chapter 495 Daydreamer
Barras looked at the strange man floating in front of him.
It is square like a large fruit core, with two eyes on the shell, two beards, and a special black wide-brimmed hat.
This is the president of the Shacheng Mutual Aid Foundation, Prince Waldie.
"It's a pleasure to have you on board, Mr. Barras."
Prince Walnut's voice buzzes with a kind of cadence and affinity.
"I know you have a lot of doubts, but let me start from the beginning."
The president of the foundation said: "I come from the Kingdom of Kamite, which used to be a rich and vast world. Later, it was invaded by a group of monkeys, and I was exiled to Shacheng in the form of a ghost. With the kindness of Lord Yao God, I got the Yao clan The care and acceptance of my friends.”
"For me, the idea of restoring my country has never disappeared. I formed a restoration army and traveled around in order to one day revive the Kingdom of Kamite..."
It paused, with a smile on its face: "I know this sounds ridiculous. Whether the Kingdom of Kamite was built, where that world is, and whether the Yunzhong Temple will intersect with it in the future are all unknown. The void outside is so vast that contact between two specific worlds is tantamount to a distant delusion. "
"However, I don't think it is completely impossible. If a great god with a great title can be born in the Restoration Army, or even a noble and powerful main god, then maybe we can locate the Kingdom of Kamite."
Originally, Barras still maintained a serious expression.
But after hearing this, it still didn't hold back, and suddenly opened its mouth and laughed.
It soon stopped smiling.
"Hahaha, this is the first time many people hear my words."
Wadier didn't care, and his eyes on his nutty face also turned into two smiles: "It does sound like a daydream, but if it can be realized, wouldn't it be great?"
Barras thought.
Compared to the restoration of the country, Wadiye's plan to give birth to gods from the restoration army is even more outrageous.
Even though Baras has been sleeping in the closed Kingdom of Mist for a long time and has not long entered maturity, it still knows what the title of god and main god means.
It's more realistic to dream.
"After years of exploration, I realized that national restoration cannot be rushed. To a certain extent, national restoration means nation building, and building a country requires a lot of patience and foundation."
Wadiye was still grinning, and his beard was tilted to both sides: "Some people in this world aim at distant stars, while some people just want to find a job. Many people try their best to prepare, but lack the Last minute resources and support.”
“So I established the [Shacheng Mutual Aid Foundation].”
"The original intention of the foundation is to find suitable supporters for everyone. As long as you are prepared, have ideas, feasible plans, and the courage to implement them, you may find partners, and even small people can make big contributions. "
Wadiye continued: "Mr. Barras, you grew up in the Kingdom of Fog. During this time, you should also have some understanding of the deserts and sand cities outside. What do you think the sand city lacks most?"
Barras thought for a while: "It should be water.
"right."
"But I can't conjure water, and what I'm good at is not the water element."
"I know."
Prince Hutao said softly: "This is due to the rules of the world of Yunzhong Temple. The rules related to the water element are too damaged, so there is always a lack of water here."
"But what I will say is that ice has a more immediate effect than water."
Barras agreed: "It's really hot here, and it would be a lot cooler if there was ice."
"You're right, it's just that the ice I'm talking about is in a more detailed and specialized field."
Wadiye put away his smile: "Ice is widely used, such as storing fresh meat and fruits. In cold areas, food does not perish easily. If there is ice, people in Shacheng can taste fresh meat, eggs, Milk and fish instead of jerky, wheat cakes, jam and pickles.”
"In addition, in the medical field, ice can relieve pain, stop bleeding, and relieve itching. Especially for some trauma-infected patients, ice can prevent the spread of infection."
"Of course, as you said, the climate here is hot. If the ice element can be allowed to stay, then everyone will live more comfortably. It is not easy for people in Shacheng to eat some iced grapes."
Balas seemed to understand: "You mean, you want me to condense the ice elements? Unfortunately, this is impossible. The ice element is the source and the inexhaustible spring. Even if I can convert some elements into ice elements, but This cannot be sustained for a long time, and the ice element will escape as soon as it comes into contact with the high temperature outside. "
After Prince Walnut inquired in detail, he couldn't help but look disappointed.
It originally thought that Barras was the first person to possess the [Secret of Ice Element] and be able to transform other elements into ice elements. If you use the frost giant's ability, you may be able to make the ice stay in the sand city.
"In any case, you are welcome to join."
…
In this way, Barras came to the foundation.
President Wadiye and Vice President Sharo are very busy.
Wadiye is committed to promoting the foundation everywhere and raising funds and assistance from businessmen and extraordinary people. Sharo collects all kinds of potential or capable talents and invites them to join the foundation.
Celebrities such as Fu Jiao, Negi Jian Bei, and Sha Wang only have names in the foundation and rarely participate in actual activities. This is also thanks to Wadiye’s tireless work.
Gradually, Barras also learned what everyone thought of Wadiye.
"At first, everyone thought it was a liar. Wadiye started the foundation after forming the Nationalist Army. If it is a liar, then if it can continue to deceive itself and everyone for more than a hundred years, it will be no different from the real thing... It keeps running around without stopping or enjoying it, just like living in a daydream.”
"Children like him, and disadvantaged ethnic groups will go to Wadiye when they need help. There was a time when the salary gap between the shells and the locals in Shacheng was huge, and the shells didn't know how to resist. , who had been silently enduring, Wadiye stood up to speak for them and formally submitted a joint protest. "
"After Mayor Slimaud learned about this matter, the parliament quickly introduced relevant supplementary regulations to ensure equal pay for equal work for workers."
"If outsiders are being bullied and the city hall has not answered or dealt with it, they will go to Wadier for help. After Wadier finds out, he will also be willing to help everyone."
"He's a respected weirdo, an impressive guy."
"I don't want to be like him, but I think it's really great to have Wadiye in Sand City. There is no such person in other cities."
…
It's hard to rate Wadieh.
It is very smart and sociable, and has long-term enthusiasm and fighting spirit. It can always find sponsors and helpers, such as Ms. Mina, a well-known rich man in Shacheng, the funeral director of the medical celebrity, and the famous swordsman Ling Jianbei... These people will eventually Become friends with it.
But Wadiye is not so smart and rational. It always does some thankless things, sponsors generously, speaks for outsiders and those in distress, and even openly criticizes various problems in the construction and legal system of Sand City.
Many people join the foundation just to get funding, and they will leave quickly after receiving the benefits. Many people have not made any feedback or contribution to the foundation. Wadiye didn't care.
The Frost Giant felt that Balas must be planning something secretly. It worked at the foundation for 2 years, mainly responsible for guarding the warehouse, and finally figured it out.
Behind the Shacheng Mutual Aid Foundation, apart from the individual sponsors, there are also regular capital injections from two huge organizations, [White Castle] and [Puji Theological College Medicine].
Both organizations have established long-term strategic partnerships with foundations.
During his busy work, Barras occasionally met Nibelungen people on the street. At first the children ran away when they saw it, then they quickly walked past with their heads down, and finally they could smile like normal residents.
Barras still has the urge to eat the Nibelungs.
But these are already controllable.
If you hurt others, you will go to jail. This is the law of Sand City.
After learning a lot of knowledge, Barras gradually realized that the so-called Nibelungs were nothing more than the product of a bunch of elements condensed and arranged in an orderly manner.
If you add an appropriate amount of fire elements, ice elements, water elements, blood elements, copper elements and many other elements to a piece of mutton chop, and then sprinkle some ice spring toxins that are a specialty of the Country of Mist, it will taste different from Nibelungen. Not big.
Unraveling the secret of food gave Barras a strong sense of accomplishment.
He is completely different.
It is no longer a chaotic life controlled by appetite, but an intelligent giant with the ability of self-pursuit and identification.
In Yaocheng, adults always protected children, and older children also protected younger children.
We don’t need to eat each other to grow and become stronger.
Barras's curiosity about his own origins evolved into a thirst for knowledge.
Because of his outstanding talent in the ice element, he was able to apply for further studies in the seminary. After studying in the pharmacy school for 4 years, he graduated with honors and became a practicing doctor.
Immediately afterwards, Barras went to the Engineering College in Yancheng for three years, majoring in mathematics, taking engineering, graphics and geology as electives, and got the position of engineer.
The more it learns, the more insignificant it feels.
The world is so vast, and each world has different natural rules, as well as different lives and extraordinary powers. Different ethnic groups have evolved completely different civilization systems. The Yao tribe absorbed and integrated a large number of other ethnic groups, and then gradually developed from a primitive tribe to a huge scale that spans many worlds.
But in the world of Yunzhong Temple, there is currently only one Frost Giant: himself.
No evidence can stand alone.
All clues and mysteries of origin are hidden under the misty glaciers of the Land of Secret Mists.
Barras decided to return to his hometown.
At the farewell party, it gave Wadiye a gift.
"What kind of device is this? A steady stream of ice elements? How is this done?"
Prince Walnut's eyes widened when he saw the stove in front of him.
The funeral doctor next to him suppressed his smile, and his expression was extremely solemn: "The external structure is somewhat like a large steam furnace... but the element fluctuations inside are different. This is the ice element condensed by the omnipotent stone, and the operation is very stable. By consuming the Almighty Stone, the ice element is maintained.”
The silent Negative Jianbei also spoke up: "There was something similar in Qianyuan Mountain, but it required a lot of water, and it was easy for the elements to be confused, causing interruption and turning into mist. It has been difficult to separate pure single elements in the element casting furnace. "
Ms. Mina smiled and said, "Although I don't know the specific principle, I can tell that this new stove is absolutely priceless."
The funeral director asked: "Baras, please tell me how long this stove can last?"
Barras said: "As long as there is enough omnipotent stone, the shell is not broken, and the crystal structure inner tank is not damaged, this ice steam stove can be maintained forever."
"..."
Bingjiao was stunned for a moment, his fingers trembling non-stop: "It can be maintained forever... This, this will completely change the current medical situation, great, great!"
He rubbed his hands happily, and couldn't stop looking around the stove: "You are a genius, Barras! You are the most talented giant in history! You are really a guy who has done a groundbreaking thing without making any noise!"
Barras was very calm at this time.
Over the years, it is very clear that Sand City lacks this.
However, it took it nearly ten years to study the ice steam stove.
The fire steam stove uses the omnipotent stone to improve the combustion efficiency of charcoal and coal, and then maintain the stability and aggregation of the fire element.
The ice steam stove is much more complicated.
First, use the omnipotent stone to build the crystal structure inner tank, and use saltpeter and water to complete the first freezing. The subsequent ice element will continue to dissipate, and the special structure of the crystal structure will continuously capture and gather the wind element and water element, and transform them into ice element.
A series of links are in continuous operation, which will ensure that the ice steam stove can create a stable cold environment.
"The most difficult part of this device is the crystal structure inner tank. I cut part of my body, and did a lot of imitation and trial and error... Finally, I made this relatively stable form. It can only be used, but I can't understand how the elements are converted in subtle ways."
"No need to understand! Understanding is always continuous and constantly corrected!"
Bingjiao's hand kept stroking the ice steam stove shaped like a calf: "I found that boiling water can reduce illness, and it is also summarized. I still don't understand all the principles. As long as it can be used, I can follow this path!"
Prince Walnut realized it later, and a happy look appeared on his face: "Barras, you actually broke through this problem! I knew that you have an incredible talent!"
At everyone's repeated requests, Barras stayed for another half a year.
In half a year, the ice steam stove was officially launched after several improvements, and quickly won the love of the people of Sand City.
The Sand City Gazette published a special report on this, with the main title "It Changed Sand City: Our Giant Balas", which made the frost giant a star scholar in the city. Even the mayor Slymod paid a visit to express his heartfelt thanks and congratulations.
On the day Balas left, many people from Sand City came to see him off. There were old people, children, tree people, elves, ghosts, skeleton ancestors, war cats... and Nibelungen.
The young collector named Bernie took a lot of photos of Balas with a crystal in his hand, recording this precious moment.
"Come back often, giant."
At this moment, Balas and Bernie just nodded to each other.
The giant turned around and strode into the depths of the desert.
...
Returning to the long-lost Land of Mist, Balas felt that the surroundings had become completely different.
The bubbling inexhaustible spring, seemingly ordinary phenomenon, hides unknown elemental mysteries.
It is the fountain of life and the source of poison. It arranges and combines all elements in an orderly manner, breeds the form of Nibelung, and shapes the giant from it.
After Baras appeared, Nibelung children crawled out of the ice layer and ice spring. They followed their instincts to approach the giant, showing intimacy and trust to it.
This time, Baras just sat cross-legged beside the inexhaustible spring, letting the children climb on his knees and arms and curiously touch his ice armor.
It installed the ice steam stove it brought back and made the ice element into strands of tangled silk.
Baras pulled out an icicle, pulled the tangled silk into a ball, flower and human shape, and handed it to the children.
The Kingdom of Mist is too quiet.
The Sand City is not like this. It is always noisy, but full of vitality and vigor.
So, while making ice element toys, Baras said: "Let me tell you a story. There was once a young man who left home and came to a wonderful city..."
The children of Nibelung licked the ice toys and listened attentively.
The wind of the Land of Mist echoed with the voice of the giant.
"...Okay, let's stop the story here. Go and rest. You should get more sleep at your age."
It waved its hand.
The children held their toys and obediently went back into the ice.
Barras slowly stood up and looked at the surrounding ice fields.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"I'm back."
Barras was too familiar with this voice. When he heard it again ten years later, his body would still spasm in fear.
Blood Knight Navid stood behind Barras: "If you need help, find me."
"...Okay, sir."
After that, the Blood Knight fell into a long-standing silence.
Barras began to dig and carry ice.
It planned to build an ice and snow city here, so that the children of Nibelung could move freely here, and those who were willing to come here could stay for a while.
