Chapter 509 Cordyceps Sinensis and Life-Saving Wood
After receiving the instructions, Lao Jimao immediately explained it to others. Because it was related to new plants, the airship was handled very smoothly. A destroyer took Lao Jimao alone and flew towards the location of Lao Jimao's original tribe.
On this day, when Chi Nan was studying, a guard suddenly ran in. "Has anyone sent plants again? Let me take a look. Haha, there are not many people who like to study plants among the natives."
Thinking of the plants sent by the natives before, they were basically poisonous plants. Because poisonous things are best used to deal with monsters and beasts. These plants only enriched Chi Nan's plant toxin reserves, but other things were useless, so Chi Nan just gave some benefits symbolically.
Of course, these benefits that Chi Nan looked down on were already huge benefits for these natives.
The things were handed over to Chi Nan, and Chi Nan began to study them one by one. "Hey, why does this thing look so familiar. There is a bug below and a strange one above... Wait, isn't this Cordyceps sinensis?"
Cordyceps sinensis, this is a very precious medicine on Earth. Some people even regard it as a magical herb, but Chi Nan also knows that this thing can basically not be planted because it is very special.
But now that he has it in his hands, Chi Nan knows that he can induce the birth of the useful fungus part of Cordyceps sinensis. Even if there is no insect, it is the same.
However, since this thing can eat the insects clean, maybe I can study it carefully. I don’t know if it is useful to use the directional mutation ability to perform random mutations without direction.
Suddenly, Chi Nan stretched out his hand and instantly induced a large number of Cordyceps fungi: "Tell the pharmacist that this thing is very tonic and very good for people. But I don’t know the specific benefits, let them test it themselves."
There is no way. The effect of plants on animals is not the instinctive ability of the plants themselves, so Chi Nan has no way to feel it. These things can only be obtained through experiments. It’s a pity that the special nature of Cordyceps sinensis cannot be induced by ordinary plant mages. If you want to induce birth, you must at least reach the bronze level.
Now the closest to the bronze level is Milia. I don’t know when Milia will be able to break through. And looking at Milia's temperament, it is impossible for her not to do other things every day.
Chi Nan continued to experiment, and some of the following things were very interesting, not all of them were highly poisonous plants. It's a pity that the level was a little low. There is no way, after all, they are just some ordinary natives, not even a formal warrior.
Without warriors, it is really impossible for them to get some high-level plants. It's the explosive mushrooms before. If these natives dare to get close, they will definitely die without a burial place.
Just to control these people, Chi Nan only disclosed the cross sword method. The weapons are controlled by themselves, and the drugs are controlled by themselves. At most, they can only be cultivated to the black iron level. Facing the bush warriors, people at the black iron level can only have a certain advantage. No matter how many such people there are, they can't pose any threat to Chi Nan.
"My lord, that person also said that there is a special plant. I don't know if it is useful."
"What plant? I didn't bring it. Where is it?" Chi Nan asked with some surprise.
The soldier said quickly: "It is said that it is a kind of plant on the seashore of our island. The water flow around our island is very strange, chaotic, and there are many whirlpools, so it is difficult to pass inside and outside. Even the largest ships will be destroyed by the water flow once they get close to here. This is why it is called the Island of Despair."
Chi Nan nodded: "I know all this, what does it have to do with the plant he said."
The soldier continued: "The native said that the reason why so many people were able to come to the Island of Despair alive in the past was because there was a very strange wood on the edge of the island. This kind of wood usually looks like a log."
"The locals call it life-saving wood, because this kind of wood is the only wood that can exist in the sea around the Island of Despair without being torn apart. It's just that this kind of wood only moves around the island and will not leave the island, so it is impossible to rely on this kind of wood to leave."
Chi Nan was stunned, and a glimmer of interest appeared in his eyes: "There is also this strange plant. Send someone to look around, if there is any, salvage it for me, I want to see what it is."
Chi Nan gave the order, and of course the soldiers did not dare to neglect it, and the airship immediately flew towards the seaside. Because the place where they landed was not far from the seaside, it only took less than an hour to go back and forth.
Including the time for finding the life-saving wood and the time for salvaging, the total time was no more than three hours. When the airship came back, Chi Nan was preparing to eat. "My lord, we are back, this is the life-saving wood."
The soldiers lifted a few pieces of wood over, and they were all round wood. But they were not big, each one was only about three meters long, about the same thickness as a person's waist, but there were many tiny hairy roots underneath, still moving back and forth, just like the tentacles of an octopus. But these hairy roots are just instinctive activities and are not aggressive.
"It's really a strange wood, put it down for me to see." Chi Nan didn't eat anymore and asked the soldiers to put the wood down.
Milia, who happened to be here, also ran over, stretched out her fingers and gently tapped the constantly moving roots, her face full of fun. If Chi Nan wasn't here, Milia would definitely release magic to control it.
Chi Nan placed his hand on the wood, quietly sensing it, and opened his eyes after a long time. "I didn't expect that this inconspicuous wood is actually silver-level." Chi Nan felt the complete silver magic pattern inside.
"The water-attributed magic pattern only has the effect of calming and controlling water flow, and it is not very useful. In addition, it is not very strong and is not as good as diamond wood. It is very fragile, so it is much easier to induce birth. But after all, it is silver-level. Wait, if the control of water flow and the calming of water flow are separated, aren't these two complete bronze-level magic patterns?"
It turned out that this was a silver magic pattern combined with two bronze magic patterns. In this case, as long as it is separated and made into two different types of wood, it can be induced even without me.
For this kind of thing, Chi Nan wants large-scale induced birth, but he can't do everything by himself, otherwise he will be exhausted.
"Very good, this kind of wood is very useful to me. Pass the order down, give Lao Ji Mao the honorary knight medal, and let Lao Ji Mao take charge of 10,000 natives, including the native soldiers and their families."
