Lord of Rot

Chapter 425 Farming magic only costs 10 gold days

When Lisu Mama woke up from her bed, the sun had already risen.

Temperatures are starting to climb in this area.

The thin blanket that covered her body when she fell asleep last night slipped off as she stretched. She was only wearing light pajamas, and her curves were clearly exposed in the morning light.

A good night's sleep restored her energy, which she had been lacking in the past few days.

Arriving at the City Lord's Hall, she heard the chatter inside as soon as she opened the door. It seemed to be Baron Reacher and Scholar Tonks. From last night's dinner, she discovered that Reacher was very passionate about magic, but she didn't expect that this morning They started a new round of chatting.

She gently opened the door, and the chatter inside quickly expanded.

"So, according to blood theory, if siblings marry, their blood will be purer?"

Li Qi specially invited Scholar Tonks to have breakfast together. A scholar who concentrates on studying magic is not like a spell caster who can only use magic. She understands the principles better than using magic.

Studying magic means studying your own "golden finger". Maybe what you are really suitable for is not to be a lord, but to be a great mage who can control the wind and rain.

Scholar Tonks was spooning lingonberry jam in the cup in front of her, holding a loaf of bread in her hand.

Add a spoonful of lingonberry jam, some honey, the meat marinade on the plate, and stuff ham shreds wherever possible.

Such a dark way of eating left Li Qi stunned.

Tonks took a big bite with satisfaction, letting the honey stick to her lips, and her tongue gently swept away the salty meat juice that tried to escape from the corner of her mouth.

As a scholar who did not serve a certain lord and did not understand herbal medicine, alchemy and other skills, Tonks did not have a good life. There were a group of young apprentices following him, opening their mouths and waiting for food.

After arriving in Mama City, Mama's family seemed to be very afraid of her, and she could only stay in her residence and live in vain. If Li Qi hadn't arrived, maybe she would have left Mama City after a while and found another place to live. .

Therefore, after Li Qi showed up, she volunteered to help, as long as she paid money.

Sugar and salt are not easily available to ordinary people, so she eats them so boldly. Her mouth has been dry for too long.

Li Qi glanced at the noodles on his plate. The army also had accompanying chefs, so Li Qi was able to eat a bowl of noodles in the morning in the field.

The concept of noodles is very broad in the continent of Lurea. Everything made with flour and cooked in water is noodles, while orthodox thin noodles are only available in Porcupine Collar and Iron Valley.

His breakfast side dishes are very simple, including noodles, meat stew, shredded ham, fried eggs, bean sprouts specially made from sprouted soybeans, and simply fried potatoes with a slightly crispy texture.

Because Mama City is not rich in supplies, it is difficult to find fresh vegetables. The bean sprouts are soaked and grown by the accompanying chef himself.

In other words, potatoes are local to Mama City and are a refreshing side dish.

He is not a person who is so vulgar that he must let others eat the same food as him. There is a dispute between salty and sweet in different regions of a country, not to mention the differences in taste between the two worlds, and it was he who took the initiative to invite Tonks to come with him. It was for breakfast, so he specially prepared fried eggs, toast, and lingonberry jam. If you didn't want to eat it, you could also dip it in honey.

Honey with bread will never go out of style.

Seeing Scholar Tonks eating voraciously, Li Qi felt that he was worrying too much and that the other person would definitely not have any taste problems.

He silently pushed the plate of meat stew in front of him to Scholar Tonks.

After eating half of the loaf of bread, Scholar Tonks stopped and said, "Yes, siblings from the same mother are closer to each other in origin. Children born from siblings can ensure that the family's bloodline is pure and their talents are high." Higher up, maybe you've heard of Queen Orianna, who once gave birth to a child with her brother."

"Queen Orianna?" Li Qi's mind was a little confused. He vaguely remembered that the queen's name was Orianna, and she had 10,000 dresses, and the number increased with various celebrations every year.

But it's hard for him to hear tidbits about the other party.

After all, he is just a country baron.

She and her brother actually...?

"It's not the current Queen Orianna." Tonks seemed to see his thoughts on Li Qi's face. She corrected: "It's her ancestor, Queen Orianna. In that era, she was praised by many kingdoms for her beauty. Fighting for each other, she married many kings one after another, and she gave birth to a boy with her brother. The boy had unparalleled talent, could quickly learn various fighting skills, and once destroyed various countries."

"What's the end?" Li Qi was certain that this was an unrecorded piece of unofficial history, and the degree of fabrication was very high.

It's probably like the image of the White Snake. It started out as a man-eating monster. Later, over time, it evolved into a succubus lusting after beauty. Finally, it was adapted into the White Snake under the Leifeng Pagoda in Aiyong Town who repays her kindness.

"In the end? Of course it's death." Tonks reached out and took the meat stew that Li Qi sent and dipped it in the bread.

Honey and shredded ham were mixed into the meat marinade, and a string of meat juice dripped all over the table as she moved.

This scene made Li Qi's eyelids twitch slightly, and he didn't even care about the hasty ending of her topic.

I can't eat with her next time. Even if we have to eat together, at least we have to use a big long table, with you on one end and me on the other, the kind where everyone has to talk on the phone.

"There are many similar situations. There was once a pair of scholars, uncle and niece, who got married. The children they gave birth to were born with extremely high talents as spell casters and could fly before they could even speak."

As they talked and ate, Tonks didn't waste a moment.

Li Qi did not ask about the result again, because before the magic tide emerged, no matter how talented those geniuses were, they could not be higher than any current spell caster.

The door opened and Lisu Mama walked in.

Fortunately, he had prepared enough breakfast, so Li Qi gave up eating fried noodles for the time being and ate bread with Lisu Mama.

Li Qi continued: "I once heard that scholars have methods to make the land fertile, to make food mature overnight, to make newly planted seeds grow into towering trees and bear fruit in the blink of an eye, and to make pigs as fat as elephants. "

In fact, his territory has achieved similar results to a certain extent. For example, the land is fertile. Li Qi can use the black dragon's decay magic to improve the geology and even speed up fertilization. Although pigs cannot grow as big as elephants, he has life herbs. , can make pigs grow up healthily, avoid dystocia and stillbirths, and the piglets are all healthy. It is like being vaccinated with a magic vaccine, achieving a sufficient supply of meat, so that every household can eat meat.

However, these are still very different from what he thought of the magic of magic, so he was very curious about the legend.

Lisu Mama, who sat down and didn't dare to interrupt, picked up the bread and raised her head curiously after hearing what Li Qi said.

Is there really such a method?

"Of course there is." Tonks raised her head: "But I haven't mastered that method because I am still at the lowest stage of research."

Her words made Li Qi a little regretful, but the lowest stage made Li Qi curious: "How many stages are there in total?"

"I divide magic into two levels," Tonks said: "The first level is to use magic."

Li Qi nodded, but he thought this level division was too general. Being able to use magic to light a candle was called using magic, and being able to use magic to light a house was also using magic.

"At this level, a spell caster cannot fabricate something out of thin air, nor can it make something exist that shouldn't exist." She said, gently waving her hand at the candle on the table, and silently recited a spell.

The candle burns and the flame dances.

It is a magical "tinder" that consumes 1 mental power unit and can be easily used by Li Qi. He often uses it to use artillery. It is a compulsory ability for magic apprentices in the Porcupine Territory.

Lisu, who was closest to the candle, looked up at the candle flame, not knowing what she was thinking.

Tonks continued: "It seems that I lit the candle, but in fact the world allowed me to do so. If it is in the water, no matter how strong my magic is, it cannot be lit."

Li Qi was thoughtful and asked: "So, what about higher levels?"

"Well," Tonks said thoughtfully, "Midas can turn stone into gold, or turn another sun into something."

The two things seemed different, but Li Qi understood what she wanted to express.

Out of nothing!

To interpret it in a very non-magical way, the stone does not contain the element of gold. No matter how it is changed, it is impossible to turn the stone into gold.

The sun cannot appear out of thin air.

It is roughly equivalent to, God said there should be light, so there is light.

To reach the second level, I am afraid that the Four Gods must descend to the earth. Even the legendary level cannot achieve it.

So, is it true that the magic farming that I want, where I can wave a magic wand and grow food like crazy due to geography, is impossible?

Tonks quickly gave her own method: "It can still be done. As long as you use magic well, you can make food grow quickly, but... I don't think scholars who study knowledge should waste energy on food."

She is right, scholars should use their light and heat in more important directions instead of wasting one-third of an acre of land.

However, it doesn't matter for ordinary spell casters. They don't need to learn too much, they only need one trick to cultivate the magic.

As long as the territory has enough food, Li Qi's waist will be even harder than the barrel of a gun.

"Scholar Tonks, do you master this magic?"

"Of course" she nodded: "I can give it to you...10************!"
