Chapter 158: The Miraculous Uses of Unicorn Horn Powder
Hua Mi remembered that among the relics left by his grandfather, there was a small gadget and he had always been curious about what it was.
So I went through the drawer and found it.
It is not big in size, about the size of a thumb. It looks like a drop of water. I don't know what kind of wood it is made of. The surface is painted and very smooth.
It can be said that this thing is just a decoration, but it really doesn't have any ornamental value.
Moreover, the workmanship is obviously contemporary craftsmanship and has no historical value.
It's hard to even hold the handpan in your hand.
Hua Mi asked the measuring bees to cover the "water droplets".
It was beyond his expectation.
Almost immediately, the relevant information came to mind.
[The main part of the float is made of Bald fir wood. Its unique shape makes it suitable for river basins with fast currents. It is specially built for fishing the "Flower Fish King". Value Rating: Low. 】
It was actually measured!
He does know a thing or two about the so-called "Flower Language Suppresses the Fish King".
It is a rare fish that is a specialty of Huayu Town. It likes to live in fast currents and is extremely difficult to catch.
Hua Mi remembers that when she was a child, many out-of-town anglers came to Luohua River to fish, but only a handful of them could catch the king fish, and the anglers regarded it as an honor.
When Hua Mi was a child, she once witnessed a king fish being caught.
Because time has passed, the specific situation has become very vague.
I only vaguely remembered that the Fish King had a strange appearance, shining golden light in the sun, and was quite divine.
However, in recent years, environmental pollution has become serious. Common fish in the Luohua River are rarely seen, and the King Fish has even disappeared. Although official agencies regularly release fish fry into the river in an attempt to save the river's ecology, no results have been seen.
It is difficult for ordinary fish to survive, let alone the rare king fish. He estimated that the Fish King might have become extinct like most of the specialty flowers in Huayu Town.
...
Let’s not talk about the King of Fishes or anything like that.
Hua Mi was pretty sure that she knew nothing about this float.
At this time, the relevant information clearly appeared in his mind.
This shows that measuring bees can measure even things on the earth.
The characteristics given by the Void Scale seemed to be more powerful than he imagined.
"What kind of existence is the Void Scale?"
Hua Mi had a sudden idea. He took out the worn-out replacement cloth from the ring and asked the measuring bee to cover it, trying to see if he could measure the source of its power.
A piece of information really came to mind:
[Alimondo cloth, cover the item you want to replace, say "Alimondo" three times in a row, and you will randomly get an equivalent item. Value Rating: High]
Although the information was received, it was of little use to him.
The key points were not mentioned.
But this is not an important matter, it's more of a curiosity.
Hua Mi shook her head and put away the replacement cloth.
After this incident, he felt more and more that his understanding of other worlds was far from enough.
So I took out a thick history book and planned to read it at night by candlelight.
Because I am not very interested in history and find it boring, I did not read history books before.
However, as his experiences in other worlds became increasingly rich, he realized more and more that if he wanted to understand a world, he had to read history.
The book in hand mainly talks about the major events of the Kingdom of Tulum from its founding to modern times.
He thought it would be a good starting point to learn about the country where the Black Forest was located.
This reading lasted one night.
"It turns out that the Kingdom of Tulum has a history of a thousand years."
This country was established from the ruins of the second abyssal invasion.
It can be said that he is a typical example of heroes emerging from troubled times.
The founder of the Kingdom of Tulum, the first king, the "One-Eyed Tyrant" Svi de Perrin, was originally an ordinary knight. When the empire collapsed, he integrated the remaining local armed forces, resisted the abyss army, and recaptured occupied many territories.
After the Abyss Invasion ended, Perrin became the king worthy of the throne and established the Kingdom of Tulum in the ruins.
He was called the "One-Eyed Tyrant" because he lost one eye in the war, and because of his decisive killing and tough style, he was given the title of "tyrant" - here tyrant is not a derogatory term.
At that time, the human empire had disintegrated, and the principalities and princes within the territory had become independent one after another. The human society on the Western Continent had entered an era of coexistence of various countries.
After that, there were raging wars between various countries, involving elves and other foreign forces. Anyone who saw it would sigh, "The noble circle is really chaotic." I am afraid it is even more troublesome than the Southern and Northern Dynasties in China.
The Kingdom of Tulum developed and grew little by little in this process...
He knew that the human society in the Western Continent now consists of seven kingdoms coexisting, and it is still peaceful and friendly at present. The Seven Kingdoms formed a loose alliance to counter the alien forces.
The Kingdom of Tulum is one of the most indispensable forces.
Of course, this history book is produced by the Kingdom of Tulum, so it will inevitably beautify itself. If you want to understand the history objectively, you need to find a few more books to comprehensively review it.
I have to say that reading this kind of book consumes a lot of mental energy.
With his current mental strength, whether it is reading speed or concentration, it is far beyond ordinary people.
But even so, I only watched less than a tenth of it in one night.
Hua Mi stretched.
It was already daylight on Earth, and he was a little sleepy.
It's time to sleep.
In order to ensure your own growth flexibility, you still need to ensure adequate sleep.
Suddenly, I heard a cat meowing outside, accompanied by the sound of claws scratching the door.
Hua Mi walked over and looked outside, but it was the black cat from last night.
"Is this little guy addicted to electrotherapy?" Hua Mi opened the door.
The black cat took a step back, raised its head and called "meow" at him, then turned around and slipped away quickly without waiting for him to make any move.
Hua Mi was wondering. He lowered his head and looked to the side. There were two salted fish lying in front of the door... and they were strung together with a string.
"Repay the favor? It's quite spiritual... But where did you get this salted fish? It's obviously been pickled by someone else..."
Hua Mi picked up the salted fish and fell into deep thought.
...
I took a nap at home, woke up, ate something, and traveled to another world. It happened to be morning here.
Hua Mi went to the flower fields to inspect the flowers as usual.
The fields are growing well, and the bellflower honey will be ready for harvest in four to five days at most.
After this period of cultivation, the five Biantan tree seeds also broke through the ground and developed into small saplings.
As for the colorful glazed flower field area, it is still under preparation.
The fur ball is transforming the land into dream soil bit by bit and releasing shadow mist.
At this time, there was already a faint mist in the field, making it feel a little dreamy.
Don’t worry about this fur ball slowing down.
Not to mention anything else, even if it is to leave here as soon as possible, it will definitely try its best.
...
"What is this?"
Alais, who came to buy honey, asked curiously when he saw the laptop brought by Hua Mi.
"This is... a tool called a computer."
Hua Mi turned off the music player and suddenly thought that a master of architectural design would be a good match for a laptop.
Think about it, if she learned CAD and other design software, the scene of her sitting in the study clicking the mouse would be a very interesting combination of magic and technology.
But charging is a problem.
"Interesting."
Alais showed a sense of novelty when he saw Hua Mi operating the computer and asked him a few questions.
"Alchemy is so magical."
After hearing Hua Mi's introduction, Alais couldn't help but sigh. At this time, she was like an ordinary girl, attracted by novel things.
When she was in Modu, Hua Mi accidentally learned from Su Qian that Alais was actually only in his early 200s, which was about 20 years old when converted to human age.
The elves have many advantages, such as long lifespan, but the price is a long growth period.
Under normal circumstances, it takes two to three hundred years for an elf to fully mature.
Before maturity, both intelligence and magic are mediocre, even worse than humans.
It is quite difficult for Alais to be called a master at this period.
Hua Mi opened CAD—why did he, a beekeeper, have CAD in his computer? Because I took relevant courses when I was in school.
While I was demonstrating how to draw, another person came unexpectedly.
It was Hilya who was happy.
Arrive at the cabin with her alchemical product.
After an unknown number of days, the finished product was finally refined using unicorn horn powder as raw material.
This time it's not a liquid.
Instead, it is a sharp-edged crystal filled with regular magical energy, as if a thick mass of ink is constantly flowing inside the crystal.
After some mental exploration, I learned that the properties of this crystal are very special.
The magical energy it contains seems to be exactly the opposite of ordinary magical energy. Expressed mathematically, it is equivalent to an extra negative sign.
Before Hilya could introduce it, Alais on the side said in surprise: "Is this a 'strange object' crystal?" "
Yes." Hilya puffed up her chest proudly.
"Strange things..."
The name sounded familiar to Hua Mi. She recalled it a little and remembered that Alais had mentioned it when he went to the City of Brass.
To put it simply, strange objects are necessary to open the plane transmission channel.
Ordinary strange objects are easy to prepare, even non-alchemists can do it. They are often disposable consumables used to open plane passages.
The stable crystallization of strange objects means a wider range of uses and can be used to make some space props.
It's okay...
Hua Mi used her imagination and wondered if she could build a space window.
Put it aside for him.
Place one side somewhere else, for example, in the alchemy workshop that Hilya and the others are about to open.
This is equivalent to connecting a space channel between two points, and he can easily provide honey for sale through this channel.
But this was just his whim.
Whether it can be realized specifically is hard to say.
Hua Mi mentioned this idea to Alais.
The latter pondered for a moment and then nodded.
"I am currently studying a magic circle. If it can be completed successfully and combined with this strange crystal, your idea can theoretically be realized."
