Chapter 207 Crystallization
"Don't you want to know what this crystal is? Why don't you go get it?" Xiang Yang brought the topic back and pointed outside, saying, "I'll go take a look outside. Remember not to touch this thing with your mental power."
Xiangyang walked out of the cubicle without waiting for Lan Ximeng's answer.
As soon as I came out, I saw a lot of classmates gathered in front of the door.
"What are you doing here? Do I have the answers? Hurry up and finish your homework!" Although Xiang Yang gets along well with the students, in the eyes of his students, he still has the authority of a teacher.
Hearing this, the students who had gathered together separated and returned to their seats.
Xiangyang watched the students return to their seats, and he leaned against the podium, waiting for instructions from above.
Lan Ximeng's eyes were wandering around the professional-grade production table.
She had no idea how expensive this thing was.
But she knew that this thing was much better than what she had, and the impurities in the potion made with this crafting table would be much less than ordinary ones.
Moreover, it has high precision and complete equipment.
Lan Ximeng clicked a button on the table and the production table started running.
Pour the collected crystals into a glass, and then pour the colorless solution into the glass in proportion......
Soon, the original crystals were dissolved and the liquid turned light brown.
Put this thing into the machine for separation and sedimentation.
In the glass in front of me, the originally light brown liquid has now turned reddish brown, and the sediment at the bottom is yellowish brown.
"This color?" Lan Ximeng separated the liquid and sediment, and used a pipette to place the liquid in the interstellar microscope.
After autofocusing, a screen popped up from the center.
Lan Ximeng discovered countless red plum-shaped microorganisms on the screen, which were constantly floating in the liquid.
Wherever it passes, it leaves behind tiny white crystals.
"So this thing can form crystals, but why are they white now?"
Lan Ximeng took a screenshot of this thing, put it online and started searching for it.
After a while, a photo exactly like what she found appeared.
This microorganism is called "plum crystal worm" and is shaped like a plum blossom.
The Meijing worm feeds on all organic matter, which makes it extremely capable of survival in the interstellar environment and able to adapt to a variety of different ecological environments.
When its food is ordinary organic matter, its excrement is harmless and some of it can even be used as medicine.
But its food is poisonous, and the resulting crystals will have the properties of that food.
Lan Ximeng came to the table where the wires were placed, and the places that were originally scraped were now slowly beginning to form crystals.
The new crystals are no longer brown, but red, the same color as the coating on the surface of the circuit.
This coating is also called a mental power protective film. It can protect a person's mental power and reduce the loss caused by the flow of mental power lines.
But, this thing is poisonous.
It's okay for human body to come into contact with it, but this thing will produce a chemical reaction with gastric juice to form a highly poisonous substance that can kill a person instantly.
So is this crystal poisonous?
And it affects mental power?
Lan Ximeng thought of Xiangyang reminding her many times not to touch her with mental power.
However, his movements when scraping off the crystals seemed very casual.
Lan Ximeng analyzed the yellowish-brown powder that had been precipitated earlier and found that the structure of this powder was very similar to a substance that can be addictive.
This thing can directly come into contact with human mental power, and the result is mental excitement and addiction.
But it is non-toxic.
"What kind of changes did this thing undergo in the body of the Meijing worm to cause this problem?"
Lan Ximeng wanted to search online, but did not get the desired results.
When analyzing the regenerated red crystals, it was found that the structure of these crystals was completely different from that of the brown crystals.
But like the coating, it is toxic.
Why is it different? Where did the variable appear?
Just as she was wondering how the crystal was formed, the bell rang.
Only then did she realize that she had already spent an hour.
Lan Ximeng put the liquid and crystals into glass containers and placed them aside, waiting for Xiangyang to come.
"Have you found the problem?" Xiangyang came in.
Lan Ximeng told Xiangyang everything she had analyzed, and finally asked: "Teacher, why do the crystals produced by the Meijing insect after eating this protective membrane directly affect the mental power?"
"Also, why did the crystals produced later change color?" she asked, pointing at the crystal that had turned deep red.
Xiangyang nodded approvingly. Lan Ximeng was a very capable kid, able to analyze so much useful information within an hour.
"Because of the mental power, this coating protects the mental power at all times, but some mental power will still escape. The Meijing worm eats the coating and swallows the remaining mental power together."
"This mental power will cause the Meijing insects to explode and die. The ones that remain are the ones that have evolved. This is how the characteristics of the brown crystals came about."
Lan Ximeng nodded. So that's how it is. "So Senior Brother Bai feels that the connection is unstable because the evolved Meijing insects are constantly swallowing up the overflowing spiritual power. At the same time, because the spiritual power is too overbearing, they die in large numbers. The ones that survive evolve again! That's why this situation occurs, isn't it?"
"Yes, you are right." Xiang Yang nodded and continued, "The teacher will deal with this matter later. Please report it in time if you encounter the same problem in the future."
"Teacher, how do we solve this problem?" Lan Ximeng wanted to know how to deal with the plum crystal worm.
"It's simple. Use fire."
"Superpowers are also okay?"
"certainly."
Lan Ximeng handed the liquid and powder she had prepared to Xiangyang, "Then, teacher, I'm leaving now?"
"Go ahead."
As soon as Lan Ximeng walked out of the classroom, she bumped into Lan Yuncheng and Yanwu who were rushing over.
"Are you okay?" Lan Yuncheng couldn't tell from Lan Ximeng's appearance that there was anything wrong with her, so he felt relieved.
"It's okay, brother, why are you here?" Although Lan Ximeng told Lan Yuncheng about this matter, she did not tell him where she was. She was still waiting for his news and giving him the problematic mecha part.
"Well, I'm just going to deal with your matter. You don't have to worry about it. I will follow up later." Lan Yuncheng patted Lan Ximeng's shoulder and told her to go have dinner quickly.
"good."
Lan Yuncheng didn't talk to Lan Ximeng about it now, but he didn't say nothing like he did before.
He told her everything that could be said, but changed it a little.
"Goodbye, Teacher Yan." After saying hello to the two of them, Lan Ximeng left the mecha classroom.
Lan Yuncheng and Yanwu walked in and greeted Xiangyang who was in the compartment.
"Boss, you're here." Xiang Yang saw the two people coming, rolled his eyes at Yan Wu, and then greeted Lan Yuncheng.
Lan Yuncheng nodded, ignoring the argument between the two, and went straight to the table where the mental control circuit was placed.
"What's going on?"
Xiangyang stood beside Lan Yuncheng and told him everything about the crystallization.
"You said that this thing can directly invade people's mental power and make people addicted?" Lan Yuncheng thought that this thing would fall into the hands of his sister later. Could it be that this person did it again?
"Yes, if a long time passes, the protective coating will be eroded and the mental power will come into contact with the crystals." Xiangyang could also think of the problems that would be encountered in the future.
"This Bai Siyuan is pretty good. He can discover such a secret thing. Can we include him in our team?" Yanwu knew nothing about this. If he was using it, let alone the feeling of blockage, he might not even feel the broken chain.
Xiang Yang crossed his arms and said disdainfully, "He has been recruited by the military and is just waiting to graduate. What do you want?"
