Chapter 73 73. Magic Interception (Qiu Zhui Reading)
Hmm...
No, is this desire also considered evolution?
Doubts flashed through his mind.
If it cannot bloom, it will not be able to spread and exchange pollen, which is actually not a good thing for its growth, nor is it a good thing for the Anshen Lily of the Valley population.
Why do you think this way?
He was confused.
But he immediately realized: it is not the ability to spread among groups that counts as evolution. If this soothing lily of the valley is to prevent its magic power from dissipating so quickly, the flower will never fade.
So is it also evolution for this individual strain?
You don’t have to worry about reproducing offspring, you just care about your own magic and beauty... It seems to be a kind of evolution, and it is very reasonable.
If there is a large supply of magic power to flowers, the magic power of the soothing ringtone will be enhanced, and so will the pollen and nectar. It is not an evolution.
For the first time, Croya fell into deep contemplation.
After a while, he began to think about how to accomplish this goal.
Honestly, the desire this time was very novel and he was really interested.
"It seems like this..."
First of all, I don't want to be picked by others. This is easy to do. It's just a soothing lily of the valley. If you don't want to pick it, you won't pick it.
There seems to be a way to keep flowers blooming for a long time.
According to the instructions of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce.
The flowering period of Calming Lily of the Valley is about two months from the time it is planted until the magic power is accumulated enough to be picked. After the flowers are picked, it takes half a year to bloom again.
Other than that, most of the time, its accumulated magic is concentrated in the rhizome at the bottom - the extra rhizomes are how it reproduces.
In other words, if you cut off its instinct to accumulate magic power for the roots and only let the magic power supply the flowers, in a sense, it can keep it blooming for a long time.
"Well..."
"Wait!"
Cloya suddenly discovered a blind spot.
Yes, after this kind of magic plant has been reproduced twice, apart from purchasing special materials and methods from the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce, the only way left is that it cannot continue to reproduce.
But even though it can no longer reproduce, it still concentrates its magic power into the rhizomes. Isn’t this very unreasonable?
If you can cut it off and gather it towards the rhizome, so that all the magic power can be supplied to the flowers, will the quality of the flowers be significantly improved?
It's like castrating a pig and then improving the quality of the pork.
Is it feasible?
He feels very doable.
"Cut off the magic power."
He thought about the magic he currently controlled, and finally found that no magic seemed to be directly effective, but the magic circle had a way.
In fact, it is the "Magic Locking Array".
This is the kind of magic circle he built at the Coral Magic Pool.
It can prevent the flow of magic power to the greatest extent, so if it acts on a certain point of the magic plant alone, such as cutting off the place connected to the rhizome, it should be feasible.
"Try it."
Cloya bent down and reached out to touch the flower.
Spiritual consciousness extends through the power of the Serenade, conveying what he intends to do.
Honestly, he didn't know whether Anshen Suzuran in front of him could accept his arrangement, and whether this arrangement was what Anshen Suzuran wanted, as he had guessed.
So I thought of asking.
As a result, Anshen Suzuran responded to Croya immediately——
It was very willing!
The desire and impatient mood are almost overflowing.
"Okay, I'll help you."
After receiving the answer, Croya began to dig it out from the soil, being careful not to damage its roots. and rhizomes. Then, he used magic as a carving knife to carve an almost invisible tiny magic pattern where it connected to the root.
At the same time, the consciousness is also imprinted on the corresponding position of its astral body, a two-pronged approach, almost completed at the same time.
As the halo of magic begins to flicker.
The prompt came as expected——
[Successful engraving, Soothing Lily of the Valley (Magic Locking Circle·Rhizome)]
[It will not be able to allow magic power to reach the root position during its growth. 】
【It will lose the ability to reproduce and supply all the magic power to the flower. 】
【The quality of flowers will be improved. 】
In Croya's sight, the position where the astral body represents the root has gradually dimmed.
Being cut off by the magic locking circle is equivalent to having the meridians of a person's limbs cut off. They will soon wither away because the blood (magic power) cannot flow.
The magic power of this part will naturally circulate to the second most important flower position.
“This is done.” Croya took the engraved Soothing Lily of the Valley and planted it alone.
After it was planted this time, it almost immediately began to absorb the magic power dripping from the earth and the magic field vines, and the buds that were originally tightly closed began to tremble.
In fact, it has already accumulated enough magic power, but it is just unwilling to bloom. Now that the problem is solved, it will naturally bloom immediately.
After about three minutes.
A string of particularly peculiar little flowers slowly bloomed.
At first glance, it is pink-blue, no different from other flowers, but if you look closely, you will find that its stamens and petals are shining with a magical halo.
The breeze is caressing, and its musical sound... seems to be a little more obvious than other soothing lilies of the valley.
The hypnotic effect seems to be more obvious.
Even Croya felt the urge to lie on the ground and sleep when he heard it.
He shook his head to drive away the sleepiness.
Gently hold the small flower with your fingers and observe it, and you can see the tiny pollen around its stamens.
Compared with the ordinary soothing lily of the valley, these pollen and light pink nectar reveal a magical atmosphere, and the aroma is more fragrant.
He nodded and said with satisfaction: "Sure enough, the quality has improved a lot."
If we can treat all the Anshen Lily of the Valley in this way, we will definitely get a lot of high quality ones. Soothing lily of the valley.
You can even make full use of its nectar and pollen without picking the petals to extract essential oil, which may be enough.
However, other soothing lilies of the valley must wait until their rhizomes have grown enough to reproduce twice before they can do this.
If you do this directly, you will be in trouble if you want to expand your flower field.
As for how to make them willing to do the same...
You still have to look at this calming lily of the valley.
If there is a leader, the plants behind will naturally follow the herd, just like those coconut trees, they all like the special magic of summoning.
After he completed this novel experience of performing "surgery" on the magic plant, he actually felt a lot of emotion.
This magic interception array, if used properly, has great potential.
For example, you can cut off all the magic nodes of the redundant branches of the magic tree, so that its magic power can only supply the two or three main branches.
Will the quality of their fruits improve, and will the quality of their seeds also improve?
This kind of selection continues from generation to generation...
Chloe is really a little tempted, even a little ready to try.
