"Have you heard? That Nordmark mage successfully helped nine dragon couples conceive children! Nine couples!"
"Yes, I heard about it too... out of eleven couples, nine were successful, an incredible success rate!"
"Strictly speaking, they should all be successful... The elder said that he felt a faint breath of life. This breath of life did not grow into a dragon egg and gestate in the mother's belly. That is another issue..." Princess Norrell Walking in the wounded barracks with a smile, listening to the whispers of the dragons.
There was an endless flow of people coming to recuperate, to visit the wounded, and to gossip. The most explosive gossip during this period is undoubtedly the achievements of Master Nordmark.
The extent of this even overwhelms the number of cracks in the recent world barrier and the number of casualties: "And his speed is extremely fast... one pair in half a day, one pair in half a day, and it was all done in five and a half days! Not to mention, In fact, most of the time is spent chatting, which means he can work faster..." Ah, little Gretel did a really good job.
Even the Dragon Clan would be surprised by such outstanding results and had to take it seriously. After all, they have been studying for so long and have not been able to reach this point... Of course, gossip is gossip after all, and the biggest characteristic of gossip is that it will lose its shape as it is passed down.
Princess Norrell walked around the wounded barracks and treated the injuries of five dragons of different races. When she came back, the rumor became: "Have you heard? That Nordmark mage successfully made Nine female dragons are pregnant with children!”
"Nine? How did he do it? Are those female dragons willing?"
"No, wait, little Princess Yuehui is just watching like this? - Where are Andre and Cynthia? Didn't they beat him to death?" Princess Norrell's smile stiffened.
There must be a limit to spreading rumors. It depends on how you spread the word about Little Gretel! What if Andre and Cynthia ended their slumber and heard the news and really came to beat him?
! Those are two legendary dragons! Two! ! She quickened her pace and walked toward the dragons in the next room who were gossiping and forgetful. She was sorting out her words in her mind, planning to argue with them.
Before he reached the door, he heard another dragon correct him: "You're not right. - The statement I heard was that he got nine pairs of mature dragon couples to conceive children. - Among the eleven pairs Nine pairs.”
"What?! He made the male dragon pregnant with a child?!" Princess Norrell's face was completely distorted... This is no longer something that can be explained clearly by simply arguing... There is a saying that rumors stop only among the wise. , there is also a saying, the more you describe it, the darker it becomes... You have to think carefully about how to say it, and diving into the whirlpool of rumors will only muddy the water and create seventeenth or eighth versions of the rumor. , which is not good for Little Grete’s reputation at all... Princess Norrell wandered back to her residence in a fluttering and fluttering way, and told the rumor to her husband as a joke that night.
The Lord of Thunder couldn't help but tell his wife the jokes his disciples had made in the past, which were irrelevant but interesting: Why vaccinate people with cowpox, because it is suspected that the vaccination will make horns grow; How do you try to help women with difficult childbirths? I was delivering a baby, but the man came to make trouble; why did I build a research institute in the Eagle Kingdom, but was stuck because I couldn't raise mice, rabbits, or monkeys? The research institute was buzzing with chickens and dogs every day... It's so funny Princess Norrell leaned forward and backward, wiping away the tears she shed from laughter.
After he finished laughing, he said seriously: "Then... do we want to help clarify the rumors about Little Gretel?"
"What clarification? These guys are all idle." Sure enough, the Lord of Thunder shook his head: "The Dragon Clan is not those stupid men and women in Nevis. They don't know the truth, and they will take whatever others say. Those who spread rumors The giant dragon knows it in his heart. He is just idle, chatting and having fun. Let them go as they please!"
"That……"
"Just wait. Rumors are also well-known, and they spread much faster than serious news. By the time Little Grete gets the first batch of results, all the dragons who should know about it will know about it, and they will be looking for additional investment."
"Additional? How much more does he want to add? The Dragon Clan has given him enough! It has already been given to a mage tower!" The Lord of Thunder smiled and said nothing.
The investment given by the Dragon Clan is indeed enough, but when it comes to research, the investment is never too much - not to mention, Little Gretel is shouting every day that the research materials are too little, too little, and this cannot be done. Do it, you can’t do that either.
For example, why do two of the eleven dragon couples fail to conceive? Why does he simply not accept jobs from mature female dragons who are over 300 years old?
Isn’t this all due to insufficient research and uncertainty about some things? Well, in order for Little Gretel to obtain resources smoothly, maybe he should also take a walk outside the world barrier and explode a few more times.
The more explosions there are, the stronger the Dragon Clan sees the fighting power on his side, and the more willing they are to allocate investment - it is obvious that a large part of the investment for Gretel is in his name as a teacher, and he conducts research under his guidance .
For example, a larger accelerator or something...
"So what else do you need?" The golden dragon Thorngraf shrank beside him, saying nothing, pretending that he did not exist.
He is just a representative of the Dragon Clan, sitting here to deliver the message, not the elders who have the power to make decisions. Now that Elder Batista is here in person to negotiate with Gretel, he can just be his record-keeper and there is no need to say another word.
"Well, first of all, I need a batch of dragon eggs and baby dragons." With the results, Gretel was more confident and could speak more freely.
Seeing Elder Batista's thick eyebrows raised and his eyes gleaming with coldness, he was not afraid and knocked on the table: the wall behind him lit up.
The tower spirit cooperated tacitly, calling out one page after another of information and projecting it on the flat white wall.
The research plan, the purpose of the research, and the necessity of dragon eggs and dragon hatchlings during the research process... were written clearly, line by line, and scrolled slowly on the wall.
Gretel half-turned around and pointed at the wall: "Don't worry, I won't do any harmful experiments with dragon eggs and baby dragons. I just sort the dragon eggs into categories and record their weight changes, energy fluctuations, and the surrounding environment." Incubation environment; baby dragons, I will never do anything superfluous except taking samples, testing chromosomes, doing physical examinations, and recording whether the awakening is successful. If the dragon family is worried, I can sign a magic contract, or you can send people to monitor the scene. ." If it hadn't been for Gretel, if any other magician had made such a request, he would have been beaten to death the moment he spoke, and then hung on a wooden stake and poked on the edge of Dragon Island to warn future generations.
However, when Gretel spoke, Elder Batista had to think carefully. He stared at the words on the wall, thinking quickly, and asked Gretel: "Is there no other substitute?"
"If it can be replaced with dragon eggs, I have tried to use dragon eggs. If it can be replaced with monster eggs, I have also used monster eggs." Gretel replied sincerely: "So far, the research that still needs to be done is really There is no other way to replace it. - By the way, the dragon eggs and young dragons do not need to be moved, just give a time and place, I will come to the door, and I will let the alchemist come to the door to install the detection device..."
"The detection device must be tested by us! It cannot affect the hatching of dragon eggs! It cannot affect the safety of dragon eggs! - Agree to this, I will contact you to see which compatriots are laying and hatching eggs recently... "
"Of course! Of course!" Gretel breathed a sigh of relief. This is the simplest request. Only when the Dragon Clan agrees can the discussion continue.
By the way, some of the different detection devices have to withstand high temperatures, some have to withstand low temperatures, and some have to be resistant to corrosion. In these cases, alchemists have to make targeted adjustments.
It is foreseeable that the magicians of the Change Department have to work overtime again, working overtime to death...
"That's the first need. What about the second one?"
"Second, I need the Dragon Clan to provide enough materials to build a larger accelerator -" Gretel continued the lion's mouth: "Now we have tentatively concluded that the atoms in the chromosomes have enough energy, and it is the biological step out of the accelerator." The essential cause of the extraordinary. But this conclusion is too rough. In order to refine the operation, we need a larger accelerator to energize the atoms and further study the extraordinary nature..." Elder Batista listened hard.
After only listening to a few words, my mind was full
"atom",
"electronic",
"particle",
"radiation",
"Particle Flow", and various mathematical models. I seem to know every word, but even if it is a legendary silver dragon, a legendary third-level silver dragon, after hearing the end, I feel like my mind is filled with a mess, and there is a buzzing: "...I know Now, you need an accelerator, it turns out that one is too small, and the research time is not enough, right?" He reluctantly came to this conclusion.
Grete smiled happily: "Yes! So I need-"
"You draft a document with the experimental plan and experimental requirements, and I will bring it to the Presbyterian Council for everyone to discuss." Elder Batista sighed: This piece of shit must not let him suffer alone!
If you want to jump into the pit, let’s jump together!
"So, what about the third requirement?"
"The third requirement..." Grete's face turned serious. The third demand is the most difficult part, and it is also the most difficult part for him to say so far: "I need... I need some eggs from high-level female dragons, mature and unfertilized eggs... for research. The process of union of sperm and egg, and the process of division of fertilized egg, what methods can definitely enhance them..."
"Do you want to get the dragon eggs directly in the alchemy vessel without using the female dragon?!"
