Chapter 1182 104. Fever of Invention
The Tree of Different Worlds can absorb the weird and redundant human nature... Then can it restore sanity to them by absorbing the crazy and weird human nature?
Annan felt that if it were that easy, their world would not "die".
“It only takes a fireball to destroy an object, but restoring it requires mastering the secrets of time.”
Whether the Scorched Maiden, the Invisible Man, and the Slug can be saved depends on They were rescued in time before they were completely controlled by the abyss that Annan glimpsed.
As they spoke, they regained consciousness. The tree from another world slowly retracted its roots. It has grown nearly half a meter taller than a few minutes ago.
The dessert after a meal is actually more filling than the main meal.
"How do you feel?"
"Good, I want to sleep..." the invisible man said.
The slug has regained its previous ability to jump away, but it just doesn’t like the experience just now. In addition to the feeling of weakness as its strength is taken away, there are two other ones that are wrapped around the arms or waist. It is the whole body. ——
"Let me introduce to you, it is a tree from another world."
"The flower pot you always hold?" Slug raised his head.
"Well, that's it."
Annan said apologetically: "I let you part-time as executioners just to create weird things to feed it, but I didn't expect that it would make you lose control..."
The slugs were flattered and twisted their bodies in embarrassment to show that they were willing.
"That's good, then I will give you another job: the porter of the otherworld tree. After you execute the prisoner, come to the garden to feed the otherworldly tree."
This time there is no middleman to make the difference, and more With the care of two gardeners, Yi Ruilan Ze and Da De, the tree from another world can thrive.
Annan looks forward to the day when the tree from another world will grow into a towering tree.
He no longer needed to worry about the tree in the different world. Annan's attention returned to the steam engine and the mining area, especially the steam engine.
As long as Liberty City develops steam engines, Annan can put the king of land freight, the train, on the agenda. The projects surrounding it will then provide thousands of jobs and make money from outsiders.
As soon as he arrived at the mushroom house, Michael pointed to a metal machine made of gears in the corner and said, "It's done."
"It's done?"
Annan looked at it suspiciously That crude steam engine.
It looks like a steam engine, but there is a mysterious machine covered with black cloth attached to it.
“You said ‘give me a few more days!’ yesterday and you made it today?”
"Yes, there happened to be a breakthrough." Michael didn't even raise his head, still playing with his magic crystal.
“What you are talking about is the same thing as what I am talking about?”
Seeing Annan’s disbelief, Michael put down the magic crystal gently, came to the “steam engine” and picked up Place the basket of bread on top, open the "steamer" lid and pour the bread in.
Then, Annan saw the gear at the end slowly turning, driving the connected gears, and then more and more gears followed.
It was actually made! ?
"Michael, you...are simply a genius! You should be the one to play Annan Potter's story when he grows up!" Annan said excitedly.
He knew that what Michael said about "a machine that uses steam to push out the piston to form power" was too abstract, and he was prepared to have no results for several months, but he did not expect that less than two months had passed. Successful in just one month!
But this steam engine seems a bit strange...
Annan looked at the wonderfully rotating gears, thoughtfully. Why is the water not boiling and no steam coming out?
Also, what steam engine is powered by bread?
Annan's attention gradually fell on the box covered with black cloth next to it. When he was about to step forward, Michael blocked him. "What's wrong?"
"...it malfunctions when opened."
"Is there any other way to say this?" Annan has indeed heard about the box opening and not opening. The theory that opening is two states...but what does it have to do with a steam engine?
When Annan was doubtful, "dong dong——" there was a vague sound coming out of the black cloth. It was definitely not the sound of boiling or the movement of machinery.
Annan glanced at the nervous Michael suspiciously, and slowly put his ear to the black cloth...
"Huha-huha-"
A weak but real gasping sound After hearing this, Annan suddenly stood up straight and lifted the black cloth.
Things that were running in the box were suddenly exposed to light. They screamed and covered their eyes, tripped over each other, and rolled into a ball in the cage.
One, two, three...three goblins, stay in the running wheel!
As the goblin stopped, the gears stopped turning.
Annan looked at Michael in disbelief, never expecting that he had actually learned how to defraud funds!
Suppressing his anger, Annan asked Michael to release the goblins first.
A few minutes later, three little goblins and Michael stood in a row.
Annan looked at him with hatred: "Don't you feel ashamed! I gave you the mushroom house and privileges, and you actually lied to me——"
The three little goblins looked up at Michael.
When Michael was pointed at his nose and said, he immediately said anxiously: "Do you think inventions are goblins? You can have a lot of babies if you want! It's hard for me to even understand what you said in such a short time! I can only give birth to a lot of babies!" Get a goblin machine to trick him first!"
The three little goblins looked at Annan at the same time.
Having said this, Annan felt that Michael had some sense. Invention was not just a treat for dinner, but also starting from scratch: "Okay...how many days will it take...?"
Mai Ker is indeed a talent and a good friend whom he has known for a long time. It is difficult for Annan to really blame him.
As a result, Michael looked like he was giving up on himself: "I have an idea. You hang me now, take off my head and hang it in the mushroom house. This may inspire other alchemy apprentices to work out what you want!"
"Then how much time do you need?"
"I..." Michael sighed: "Let me rest first...at least cram in some relevant knowledge, in order to figure it out The steam engine you mentioned, I don’t even have time to meditate on.”
“Forget it, it’s difficult for you to study a field that you are not good at. It’s my fault.” Looking at Michael’s messy bird’s nest. With such hair, Annan still relented: "Do the research you like. Aren't you interested in alchemical substances like unstable crystals? Continue researching."
"Uh..." Annan retreated Instead, Michael was flattered and said helplessly: "It's not your fault... You are the lord. It was wrong for me to use your money to deceive you... You don't have to consider my feelings."
The three little goblins looked at the two of them apologizing to each other with their mouths open.
“It’s not all about you. Unstable crystals are also quite useful. If you can make it stable, more powerful, and smaller... next year’s Liberty Cup Great Invention Award will be yours. "
"What's the use..." Michael doesn't care about fame.
“More funds.”
“I am bound to win the Great Invention Award next year!”
