Chapter 386 Agricultural Cthulhu

This story starts with Ash's application project that day.

At that time, Ash wrote an application report, intending to study the breeding of polluting organisms.

Xius didn't take it seriously. He just thought that she was unhappy after the wolf died, so she was going to get rid of it and get another pet.

As long as she didn't capture a human or a banshee to raise, she could do whatever she wanted. Besides, this was the first research application submitted by Ash, and for the purpose of encouragement, Hughes approved it without even looking at it.

So when Ash told him a few months later that his research had yielded huge results, Hughes was completely stunned.

It turned out that he was shocked a little too early.

Zeus arrived at Ash's residence as soon as possible, and was then pounced on by the big black wolf, which washed his face with its tongue.

Ash grabbed the skin from the back of the coyote's neck and lifted it up, throwing it aside and walking inside with Hughes.

"Is this wolf still alive?"

"Um."

"Haven't you been fed for a month?"

"Wolves don't need to be fed."

Hughes was a little confused when he heard this: "Ash, listen to me, all pets need to be fed, even that one..."

He pointed at the black wolf and suddenly felt something was wrong.

The wolf had just tackled him.

Zeus is not a supernatural being, and the symbiotic contract does not give him any bonus in strength or physique, but he is still an adult male human after all.

Wolves are not very large animals, and coyotes are relatively small among them. The thinner coyotes can even weigh as much as a domestic cat.

The wolf wanted to pounce on him so smoothly, and with just the strength to play. This was the first time that Hughes looked at the coyote seriously, and then he was shocked.

It was about one meter tall, which was not high for Zeus, let alone Ash, but it was quite an exaggerated height among wolves.

This height refers to the shoulder height when it stands on the ground. If it is measured in length, it is already over two meters.

Wolf? Even a smaller tiger can't compare to this!

Seeing the coyote circling around Ash and rubbing its tongue against Ash's tail, Hughes felt sick.

He hadn't paid much attention to it until he looked carefully and discovered that the wolf's fur was jet black with something like smoke rising slowly from it. From a distance, he would have thought it was just because the fur was longer.

There was also a faint green light emanating from the wolf's eyes, making it look brutal and sinister.

If it could stand up and the background changed to night, Hughes would think he had encountered a werewolf.

There's definitely something wrong with this thing!

Ash picked up the coyote and threw it aside, then shook the saliva off his tail in disgust, opened the door in front, and took Zeus into the yard behind the house.

This is the new building that Ash applied for funding to build.

The yard is quite large, with a pond in the middle and several fields on both sides where crops are planted.

It can be seen that Ash's planting technique is not very good. The things in the field grow crookedly, but they are huge!

There were wheat plants that were almost as tall as Hughes, olive trees that were several stories high, and coconut trees that reached Hughes' waist when placed on the ground. "I, I remember you only applied for the project for a few months, right?" Hughes' voice was a little trembling.

"yes."

"Isn't it the season to plant wheat now?"

"yes."

"Coconut trees and olive trees, they need to grow for a few years before they can bear fruit, right?"

"yes."

"So how did you do it? Is this magic? Just like Nini's fish herding spell, you controlled the fish to jump out in an instant. Are you actually a six-armed druid?"

Ash's expression was confused for a moment, then she cleared her throat and said seriously, "No, this is science."

Hughes: “.”

"So how did you figure that out?"

Ash thought for a moment, then turned around and lifted the wolf over again: "I discovered that the wolf wouldn't starve to death even if I didn't feed it, but later I discovered that it was actually stealing food."

"What did you steal?"

"Fuel for steam engines."

Ash has a steam engine at home. As a banshee, she has received advanced courses. She has an obsolete old steam engine at home. She occasionally disassembles and assembles it, or tries to chat with the steam engine and communicate with the machine spirit.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Machine Spirits are very aloof and never talk to people. Like most people, Ash's communications have received no response.

As a result, one day when she returned home, she found that the machine soul actually took the initiative to communicate with her.

It was talking in a swearing tone, and it took Ash a while to figure out that it was complaining that its fuel had been stolen.

The machine soul was unhappy.

And it was this coyote that stole the fuel.

As for what else the fuel for the steam engine could be, it is of course physical pollution.

Ash didn't believe it, but there had been no record of a machine spirit lying to people. She thought about it, pried open the coyote's mouth with both hands, and reached into its stomach.

You know what, it really does exist.

Later, Hughes told her that all pets need to eat, so she took it to heart and tried to expand the scope to plants.

She watered the plants with pollution.

It’s not that no one has thought about doing this. When pollution comes, it has hit many flowers and plants, and the result is the same - death.

The plants will turn black and carbonize, as if they had come into contact with concentrated sulfuric acid. The specific nature of the pollution remains a mystery. Although many experiments have been conducted, people's understanding of this extraordinary substance is still extremely limited.

Most people would give up after trying a few times, but Ash was a bit stubborn. Just like she used to change the fish every day, she now started changing the plants every day.

It is unclear whether it was her will that caused the reality to shift, but in any case, she succeeded.

After countless crops died, Ash successfully figured out a set of pollution-using procedures.

"Coconut trees, as long as they are watered with enough pollution, will continue to produce coconuts. There are also olives. The oil extracted from these olives can be used to burn a very strong fire. The kernels of wheat are very hard and difficult to bite, but they can be fermented. Although the residue left after fermentation does not taste good, it can be eaten. Alcohol is also very useful."

Ash introduced them one by one, and Hughes was stunned.

There is no need to explain the importance of these plants. As long as there is enough physical pollution, there will be no shortage of food.

Moreover, Ash even tried these things directly, proving that although they were crops eroded by pollution, they were still edible.

Use pollution to water the plants. After the deep sea war ended, there was indeed no shortage of pollution in the stellar furnace, but it was somewhat difficult to get the pollution out of the furnace. People soon discovered that it seemed that these plants could be planted directly on the long tentacles of the evil god, and their roots seemed to be able to penetrate the pollution snakes and absorb the pollution.

So after the prince got off the boat, he was shocked when he saw Caster for the first time.
