Chapter 147 Holy Water
Your own magic basic idea is not wrong! Zhang Quan thought.
However, in specific situations, we still need to deal with it in detail. Our previous concept is just a basic concept, and naturally we have to change according to the specific situation.
Just like on the earth, everyone knows that the sun is the source of all energy, but what humans have always used is rarely the direct use of solar energy. People have used things like coal, oil and other things for centuries, but these are just solar energy stored in the form of chemical energy.
The same is true for magic. Although the basic configuration is simple, it is definitely the most basic energy form on this planet, just like the mana summarized by the magicians of the local indigenous planets. But in specific use, the form must be varied in a variety of ways. Zhang Quan could imagine that the holy water in the hands of the elves is probably also a type of magic energy form.
This form of magic energy may be easier to act on magic plants, so it has become a necessity for elves. In fact, to be honest, this form is the most suitable form for the thinking of people on earth.
The previous illusory concept of Mana may be too unearthy and difficult to understand. But if energy appears in the form of materialization, isn’t it equivalent to coal and oil? It is simply energy that can be used directly. In this way, the magic energy gives people the feeling more like the energy in the concept of earthlings.
The elves' holy water is undoubtedly such a thing!
"Go! Go to the warehouse."
Zhang Quan thought about the important thing and was too lazy to sleep. He ignored the fact that he had already put on his pajamas and went to bed, so he had to go to the warehouse to practice it immediately.
Faced with his orders, how could the orcs below dare to make any disobedience? Even though most of them were already sleeping, they had worked hard to gather a team of guards on duty. After Zhang Quan's clothes were changed here, the guards with him were ready, and a group of people followed him into the warehouse where the supplies were stored.
When we arrived at the warehouse, there were a brigade of orc guards on duty, lit torches, and brightly lit lights around us. After all, there are elves around us now, and some of them are allowed to move freely, so the security work naturally needs to be done well. Speaking of defending the fruit of victory, these orcs are even more concerned than Zhang Quan himself.
After entering the warehouse, Zhang Quan first wanted to verify the efficacy of holy water. According to his previous ideas, the most direct magical energy that the holy water acts on magical plants should be the most direct magical energy, and even without the intervention of a magician. Now what he wants to try is to see if this idea is feasible.
He is neither a magician nor a spell. If he can achieve the effect with holy water, wouldn’t that mean his idea is right? However, although he thought so, he still felt something was wrong. Is it really that simple to perform plant magic?
He took out a few bottles of holy water and some magic plant seeds from the warehouse and looked carefully. The appearance was not much different from the usual water.
Then I came to an open space outside the warehouse and started the experiment on the spot.
Under the reflection of the torches lit by the guards around him, he could clearly see what was happening.
He opened the opening of the small bottle storing holy water and carefully watered the plant seeds. One drop, two drops, three drops, and the "holy water" that had no specific appearance quickly penetrated into the surface of the seeds, but the plant seeds did not immediately undergo such drastic changes as he expected.
It's just a little bit different.
This difference is visible to the naked eye, and the changes are obvious. At the beginning, the surface color of the seeds began to change, and a little invisible green appeared. Then the green began to spread, covering the whole body of the seeds in a blink of an eye. The seeds after the change looked green and cute. Then under Zhang Quan's nose, the green seeds began to expand and deform little by little. After a few minutes, they could no longer see what they were like, and turned into a group of bloated buds with a volume of almost several times.
Looking at the seeds that were still changing in front of him, Zhang Quan felt thoughtful.
He thought, no, this was inconsistent with the situation where the elves cast spells he usually observed.
Judging from the changes in front of you, this holy water can indeed work and can produce plant seeds in a very short time. In a few minutes, the magic plant seeds began to expand and germinate. If we look at the experimental reaction of the earthlings, the reaction speed visible to the naked eye can be considered as a miraculous speed. If it is on the earth, such cultivation speed can be considered as the level of a monster no matter how you look at it.
However, this speed is no longer comparable to the plant magic of the elves you usually see. In the hands of those elves, the changes in plants occur almost instantly, and the plants grow faster than imagined, just like living creatures. That kind of thing can be called magic, but when it comes to Zhang Quan, Zhang Quan's experiment in front of him is at most a rapid growth experiment.
Why is this happening? What other factors are not considered in the process of spell casting? Are there other mysteries?
Then he unwillingly tried it again a few times and tried it with different plant seeds several times, but the situation was almost the same.
Holy water does play a role in plants, and its effect is very obvious, just like a rapid chemical reaction in earth science. But he has to admit that the "plant magic" he performed in his hands is very different from the elves' version, both in terms of reaction speed and effect.
Whether this plant magic experiment was successful or failed is a bit difficult to tell. But for Zhang Quan, it undoubtedly has almost the same significance as success.
Through this experiment, at least Zhang Quan figured out one thing, that is, holy water is indeed useful to magical plants, and this effect is not only used by magicians. His original idea was really right, but he was not an elf magician after all, so he had to admit that there were still some tricks in it.
The elves' plant magic is not as simple as he imagined.
...
In the dream of the thinker, time passes as fast as a shuttle.
After a series of experiments were completed, when Zhang Quan woke up from contemplation, there was already some signs of dawn in the horizon. The fog was deep and dew was invading her clothes. Only then did Zhang Quan suddenly feel the chill on his body. After standing in the wild for a long time, his body was even stiffened.
After randomly dusting the dew on his body, Zhang Quan turned around and looked at the magical plant watered by the holy water, but found that the seed of the plant that was initially watered was gone and had crawled into the land. There was only a small seedling, working hard to break through the barrier of the soil, revealing a foot-long emerald green from the ground.
Zhang Quan Zhanyan smiled and said, this magical world is indeed a magical world.
