"Annivea, you can't be biased when doing research. Life and death are part of life, and it's normal to cooperate with necromancers. Don't imitate those elves..."
"Teacher, I'm not..."
"You got along well with Leon before. Try to cooperate with other necromancers and at least learn something from them. For example, cloning, which is actually a wonderful life magic..."
"Teacher, I didn't..."
"In principle, cloning is used to cultivate fertilized eggs, and it is very relevant to the profession. I have a hunch that this road may be possible in the future, and it won't hurt to try it." Gretel earnestly warned his disciples—— At the same time, he also enjoys the fun of teaching his disciples.
Annevia struggled twice, and finally got the word and answered quickly: "Teacher, I'm just worried about the cost... The cloning technique costs too much. Although Black Crow Swamp values the teacher very much, after all, we can't..." You can't use them as cash machines, teacher!
It is normal for everyone to have regular interactions. If you ask them to help you build a cloning facility, it may not be just one, but several. They are not setting it up for you, but setting it up for your disciples... This favor is owed. It's too big, I can't carry it!
"Ah, no problem." Grete waved his hand with a smile: "Don't worry, Black Crow Swamp won't care about this - not to mention that all expenses can be settled with the Dragon Clan, even if they pay for it out of their own pockets, they are also willing! Your teacher and I , the favor given to Black Crow Swamp is not just one or two." Even if you don't take into account the virus research institute in the Eagle Country and the necromancers who are advancing in the research institute, just let Archmage Heins log in The fact of going to Evermeet Island is enough to cheer Black Crow Swamp for a year!
That's Elf Island! It's Elf Island! It's the Elf Island that has always rejected them and never allowed them to go to the island!
If I hadn't worked hard to create opportunities for them and convinced the elves, how would they have had this opportunity!
Anivea instantly felt like Alexander. The teacher's favor, that's the teacher's favor. She doesn't have any benefits for Black Crow Swamp - a level 9 nature priest. She has to be raised by the teacher and use the teacher's resources for research. It's really embarrassing. Already...
"Don't think too much." Grete comforted her leisurely: "It's normal to fail a few times or dozens of times when doing research. Your teacher and I were in the Eagle Country's research institute before, and that was a failure. At least eight hundred times. As long as it succeeds in the end - don't worry, as long as it succeeds and can effectively increase the fertility rate of the Dragon Clan, we here in the Dragon Clan will have whatever we want!" Not to mention reimbursing research expenses, even if it is The houses of the dragons in need are half empty, and they will all come to line up obediently to give away money!
Anivea only felt that the burden on her shoulders was heavier. If you want to succeed, you will be reimbursed only if you succeed. If you fail, the money will be thrown into the water... No, you can still make a sound if you throw it into the water!
The cost of a cloning technique is said to start at 10,000 gold coins - 10,000 gold coins are used to float the water, and are thrown into the water one by one, from morning to dark. If the acid is thrown in the right hand, it is changed to the left hand, and the acid is thrown in the left hand. If you change your right hand, you may not be able to finish throwing it!
If you fail once, you will burn 10,000 gold coins. If you fail again, you will burn another 10,000 gold coins. Not to mention, what she needs now is not the complete cloning technique, but the parts of the cloning technique to create a culture tank suitable for the development of fertilized eggs... She needs the top mage from Black Crow Swamp, who knows the cloning technique very well, to personally Modify magic circles and magic devices.
What kind of favor is that? That favor is far more than a single cloning technique! I didn’t say anything, just work hard!
Only by working hard, researching hard, and making what the teacher wants as soon as possible can we repay the teacher's support!
Anivea went to work with confidence. At noon that day, the archmage led by Black Crow Swamp rushed over and brought three or four disciples to help her install and debug for three days.
With the stable environment built by the clone warehouse, the progress of the experiment has indeed skyrocketed. At the very least, the fertilized egg has obtained a stable development environment, can survive, and begins to divide - into two!
Two points four! Four points and eight! Eighteen points and sixteen! Annevia held her breath, widened her eyes, and looked carefully under the microscope.
Life is really amazing. Such a tiny cell can continue to divide, divide, divide, and finally turn into a baby with arms and legs that can breathe, move, cry, and laugh... Well, it lived for three days. Now, should I move it into the female lizard, let it continue to grow, and finally hatch out the baby lizard?
Annevia started to take the next step very nervously. One after another, the small bubbles that had divided to 16 cells moved into the female lizard's body, waiting eagerly for them to continue to grow.
However, after waiting for one day, two days, and three days, I tried my best to sense with my mental strength, but no more life breath appeared in the body of the female lizard... Could it be that she was dead?
Could it be that she worked so hard to cultivate them in the alchemy device, and for this reason, she made the teacher owe a favor and asked the fertilized eggs to be retrieved from the Black Crow Swamp, and then they all died after being returned to the female lizard?
Anivea was unwilling to give in. She was afraid that her mental power was not delicate enough and her perception was not enough, so she invited all high-level nature priests to come over and take a look.
Elder Erwin shook his head, Elder Wood shook his head, and Elder Knox pondered for a long time before shaking his head: "I feel the breath of life you mentioned, but it is very, very, very subtle. Moreover, it does not have that kind of vigor. The erection feels like it has become one with the mother's body and is beginning to grow..." What does this mean?
Not dead, but not alive either? If Anivea asked Grete, she would probably hear Grete sigh like this: "So the spirit of human women is really tough. After taking a large dose of hormone to promote ovulation, the diameter of the needle is 0.9 to 1.6 mm and the length is 35 cm. The egg-retrieval needle pierced the lower abdomen and penetrated the ovary to retrieve the mature eggs; after such an operation and withstanding such psychological pressure, the fertilized eggs could still be successfully implanted in the body..." But unfortunately, she I didn’t ask for advice, or I was too embarrassed to ask the teacher for anything, so I didn’t hear anything.
"Probably not implanted" judgment. Since the fertilized eggs are still inside the female lizard, that’s great!
Annevia worked hard to communicate with the female lizard, tried to send her natural breath, and tried to persuade her
"It's safe now, you can start hatching the eggs". However, no matter how she conveyed her, how she comforted her, how she comforted her, the female lizard just lay there wilting, as if
"I'll pretend to be dead if you don't let me go". Finally, it was Ash Moonsong who solved the mystery: "It doesn't want to hatch the eggs! Lizards have this ability. They store fertilized eggs in their bodies and keep them stagnant, stagnant, until they feel that the situation has improved. You can hatch the little lizard and let it grow into a lizard egg!"
"You..." How do you know?
"I saw it! Where I used to live, there was a nest of lizards nearby. The male lizard died not long after they mated, and it took about a year for the female lizard to lay eggs!"
"..." To say the least, elves are powerful, well-informed, and have enough time to observe various animals and plants.
Since Annevia couldn't hold the female lizard to hatch the eggs, she had to find another way: I used the alchemy device of cloning to hatch the eggs instead of the female lizard. This would be okay!
! She broke the jar, took out half of the fertilized eggs, separated them one by one, and put them into the alchemy device.
According to the experimental plan, each fertilized egg is set up with a different magic circle, using different energy effects: increase energy supply by 1%...increase energy supply by 2%...increase energy supply by 3%...increase fire element by 1% Energy supply... Increase water system energy supply by 1%... The experimental group, the control group, and another group were placed in the belly of the female lizard to hatch.
Annevia maintained the magic circle with fear, sensed the situation inside every day, and prayed every day: Survive, survive, survive... grow, grow, grow... Even if you can't grow into a monster or gain any extraordinary abilities, please try your best to survive. ... Even if she worked hard and put all her energy into these fertilized eggs, she still couldn't stop the fertilized eggs from dying one by one.
Seeing these fertilized eggs dying, Annevia felt distressed, so she could only use them as waste. She used these fertilized eggs for research, chromosome testing, and dissection: Well, this small ball, probably Could there be...more than two hundred?
More than three hundred? More than four hundred cells? However, the chromosomes did not undergo any changes, and no extraordinary points appeared; this group lasted a few days longer than the previous one, and it could basically be considered somewhat formed.
The shape of a long, curled up ball can already be seen, but there is still no extraordinary point; the head of this ball... can be seen!
The head and tail can be distinguished, but other parts are still invisible... It's really amazing, knowing that the cub grows from such a small fertilized egg, and watching it grow up little by little, Still different...
"You think it's magical now?" The necromancer who came to debug and maintain the alchemy device laughed at her unceremoniously: "The cloning technique is like this. Put a piece of meat in and it will gradually grow into a small ball, little by little. Get bigger. Watch it grow into a lizard-like ball, watch it gradually separate its head and body, watch its limbs grow, watch its tail gradually disappear... I have a picture album here. Come over when you have time. , let me show it to you!" But the album is an album after all, not a physical object, let alone a living being that carries the breath of life and can be perceived with mental power.
Annevia felt that if she could completely observe the incubation process of a fertilized egg, she might be able to integrate what she had learned before and advance immediately!
