Lord of Arcane

Chapter 674 Growth is slow and playful
In fact, the Arcane Garden is not a very good place to eat. There is too much positive energy here. Although a well-trained Arcanist can ignore the interference of the environment here, it is still not as comfortable as the normal environment outside.

Of course, Xia Duo and Niya didn't come here every day, but it happened that Xia Duo wanted to come here today, so he asked Niya to come here.

And the main reason why Xia Duo wants to come here is not to see Pamela and them. What's so interesting about the two Pegasus, what he really wants to see is the growth of the Bonu tea tree.

Half a month ago, Xia Duo obtained the seed of a Bonu tea tree through the chief Orepus of the Silver Leaf family, and it germinated smoothly after several attempts.

Afterwards, Xia Duoduo was placed in the Arcane Garden, and Xia Duo came to check from time to time to see if the Bonu tea tree could adapt to the environment in the Arcane Garden.

For the time being, there is no suitable candidate for the Tower of Time to take over Xia Duo's job. Of course, even if there is, Xia Duo will still come here often.

After all, this single seedling still needs to maintain a considerable degree of attention.

……

Soon, Xia Duo and Niya finished their dinner by the river, tidied up the place briefly, and the two walked slowly along the small river that runs through the Arcane Garden.

The nest of the two Pegasus is at the source of the small river, and the Bonu tea tree is also planted there. The main task of the Pegasus is to guard the tea tree.

As for the other plants in the Arcane Garden, whether it's fruit trees, wheat, spices, or vegetables, as long as they want to eat, they can eat whatever they want, as long as they don't deliberately waste or destroy it.

The two walked for a while, and heard a few "Herod" voices. Immediately afterwards, Pamela and Abel descended from the sky with a gust of wind, and as soon as they landed on the ground, they went directly towards Niya.

Xia Duo secretly scolded the traitors, then ignored them and went to see the Bonu tea tree.

Speaking of it, Niya took care of the two Pegasus more than Xia Duo, and it was normal for the two Pegasus to be closer to Nia, but in terms of actual orders, Xia Duo's was more useful.

Around the Bonu tea tree, Xia Duo set up a cordon in charge of Ta Ling, mainly to remind the two flying horses, lest they go crazy and trample the tea tree.

In fact, the first thing Xia Duo wants to check is whether the tea tree has been stepped on, even though he knows that the tea tree has not been stepped on—

If Pegasus or anyone else entered the warning range, Taling would notify him immediately.

This shows how much Xia Duo cares about this tea tree.At this moment, he didn't think about how to use it to make a fortune in the future, he just regarded it as a source of his favorite tea.

Xia Duo squatted down, carefully observed the tea tree that had just sprouted a bud from the seed from different angles, and then took out a thin wooden stick and stood it next to the bud.

There are thin scales on the wooden stick. This is a simple measuring scale made by Xia Duo through standard spells to define weights and measures. It is not easy to determine the growth progress if you only look at it with the naked eye.

As for casting spells, Xia Duo's principle has always been that if spells can't provide convenience, then don't cast spells.

Obviously, instant casting measurement is far less time-saving and labor-saving than directly taking out a thin wooden stick.

"32 mm, only 2 mm more than last time!"

Xia Duo was a little speechless, this tea tree is really difficult to serve, it is hard to grow, and it grows slowly. Xia Duo measured it before leaving last time, and it was 30mm.
It's been a few days, and it's only increased by 2 millimeters. Can it only be spawned by magic in the future?
The key is the birth of spells, and Xia Duo also feels that he is approaching a bottleneck. If he uses [Flowers in Bloom] today, he doesn't know if he can make the tea tree grow longer.

You must master more powerful spells, or get someone more professional!
After measuring the length of the buds, Xia Duo measured the width of the buds and leaves, and recorded all these data as reference materials for perfecting the planting method.

It might even be possible to speculate on the future growth progress by waiting until there are enough recorded data.

……

After repeated inspections several times, Xia Duo used [Blooming Blossoms] on the small tea sapling, and measured it again, and it turned out that it was only 1 millimeter more!This made Xia Duo a little upset. If this continues, [Blooming Blossoms] will soon be useless.

This spell is an elf spell. Xia Duo is not good at elf spells, nor has he done much research. This kind of spell in the field of life is better for professionals. .

And there is only one Bonu tea tree here. If it breaks down, there is no place to "repair" it!
Now it seems that it is impossible for Xia Duo to drink the tea grown by himself in a short time.

"Ugh--"

Standing up from the ground, Xia Duo looked at the playful scene of Niya flying up and down on a pegasus in the distance, and shook his head helplessly. He is so big and so childish!
However, after making complaints, Xia Duo felt another rippling in his heart. Being able to show such a side in front of him, Niya obviously trusted him and got close to him.

After a while, Niya seemed to be tired from playing, so she let the Pegasus fall to the ground, then took out fruit wine from the dimension bag, and fed it to the two Pegasus.

Even the fruit wine produced by the Tower of Time is low in cost, but it can be sold to other mages for 100 gold coins a bottle. It is really a waste to just feed it to two horses!
After feeding the horses, Niya came to Xia Duo and said excitedly: "Your method is really good, Pamela and Abel are very good!"

"..."

Xia Duo remembered that he also fed the Pegasus with fruit wine, but he did it to let the Pegasus feel the taste of home, and at the same time let them recognize their masters, and he never fed them again!

"Okay, it's getting late today, go back and rest early, there will be a meeting tomorrow to discuss the elf refugees!"

When Xia Duo mentioned the elven refugees, Niya's face immediately collapsed, "Okay, let's stop here today!"

As she spoke, she turned around and stroked the back necks of the two Pegasus a few times, then teleported away.

Xia Duo shook his head slightly, and summoned the tower spirit to teleport away.

……

Even though Niya was asked to rest earlier, when he returned to his residence and saw the familiar desk, Xia Duo couldn't help but took out his spell notes and began to read and sort them out.

As the saying goes, "Learn the new by reviewing the old, you can be a teacher." Xia Duo aspires to become a "great teacher" in popularizing education, and naturally he will not forget the teachings of the sages in his hometown.

He didn't put away his notes, wash up and rest until he got out of the state of invigoration brought about by the positive energy environment and gradually became tired.

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!
