21. Disaster Level
Su Liu snorted, his voice nasal.
She was indeed extremely tired. Her legs felt heavier than lead, and she was sleepy and hungry. Her head was dizzy and she felt dizzy.
Huo Jie also noticed her fatigue and suddenly placed his palm on her forehead.
"You have a fever."
Su Liu didn't answer. She felt a little cold, so she wrapped her arms around her knees even tighter and curled up into a small ball pitifully.
Huo Jie felt that she was becoming more and more like a little mushroom, wilted and the kind that grew on the roadside but no one picked.
"Even the Purifiers don't know the species of the Disaster Beast Lord. How did you recognize it?"
The matter was of great importance. Su Liu tried to open his eyes wide. "If I can't answer, will I be taken for an autopsy?"
Huo Jie was a little surprised. "Why do you think you'll be used for dissection and research? Can we extract the knowledge base in your mind by dissecting you?"
She possesses a vast knowledge system that even the purifiers cannot match, whether it is the perfect test paper for the monthly exam, or recognizing the red-bellied pheasant at a glance, and the unknown Selaginella this time.
Regardless of her origins, even if she is a spy maliciously trained by antisocial forces, her value is immeasurable.
Even dissecting it? No normal person would do such a stupid thing as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
Su Liu felt relieved. She saw a reassuring smile on Huo Jie's face. It was different from the fake and deliberate smile he had shown her when he deceived her on the airship. Now it was truly from the heart.
This person wouldn't kill her on the dissection table while she was sleeping, right?
She buried her face in her knees and tilted her head, feeling dizzy.
Huo Jie picked her up and walked towards the airship waiting not far away.
The deputy general came forward and said, "The punishment for Zhang Yanchen has been issued: his rank has been stripped and the entire army has been informed. As for the purifier who maliciously obstructed him, will he be handed over to the association for handling?"
"Okay." Huo Jie handed the matter over to his subordinates, then carried Su Liu into the airship.
The seeds of the newly purified species, Selaginella, have been collected after purification and handed over to the Ministry of Agriculture and purification experts for research.
If it has great value, it will be planted in a certain area later and bring benefits to mankind.
In the school, Su Liu was sick for several days, with fever and cough.
Although there is a school doctor, the treatment is not free. At least you have to pay for the medical expenses.
With not a penny on his body, Su Liu owed three or four hundred yuan in "foreign debt".
After recovering, Su Liu pounded the bed in grief.
"What are you treating me for? Can't you just let me stay sick? It's just a minor cold. It will heal on its own in a week at most. Is treatment necessary?"
Yan Ziyan handed her a cup of hot water and said, "Your fever has reached 40 degrees Celsius. If you don't get treatment, you'll be roasted like a chicken in a coffin. Also, Admiral Ives has paid for your medical expenses."
Before Su Liu could express his surprise, Yan Ziyan added, "But his deputy general said that you must pay him back when you have money in the future, including interest."
Su Liu: “666.”
Rosa came in with some hot water and said, "You're pretty unlucky. You run into an 'Extermination' beast just by going out for a walk. Tell me, how terrifying is that thing?"
"It's so terrible that I never want to encounter a natural disaster again in my life."
The appearance of powerful alien beasts and plants will undoubtedly bring about a huge catastrophe.
When the level of destruction reaches a certain level and is accompanied by the appearance of large numbers of beasts, it is called a natural disaster or a catastrophe.
The levels of natural disasters are divided from low to high into evil, destruction, burning, disaster, nuclear, devouring, killing, and evil.
The evil judgment is that the beast group can destroy a town.
And to destroy means to destroy the city.
The stronger the destructive power, the higher the level of the disaster. Just like the snake beast code-named Jörmungandr that destroyed the K-72 planet before, it can easily destroy an entire planet, and its level is "devour".
In every natural disaster, in addition to magnetic field changes, cosmic ray interference, natural disaster formation, etc., there is also a most difficult factor to deal with - the beast master.
The Beast Master is the core of the natural disaster. It gathers tens of millions of small strange beasts and plants, triggering a beast tide.
The beast master in the "devouring" disaster was Jörmungandr, and the beast master in the breeding city was judged to be an "evil" disaster was a mutated golden pheasant.
The "destruction" disaster in Nanjin City was caused by a mutant Selaginella.
In order to prevent natural disasters, it is necessary to eliminate or purify all the beast masters and the beast tides despite the interference of many factors.
The three major disasters made Su Liu extremely afraid of the group of strange beasts. If possible, she would be willing to exchange twenty years of her life for never encountering a strange beast again in this lifetime.
However, at the same time, she also admired the military personnel who faced the strange beasts head-on.
It is precisely because some people rise to the challenge even when facing death that ordinary people can live a relatively stable life.
After her cold got better, Su Liu didn't even go to class and went to the field to check on her mung beans first.
She hasn't taken care of it these days, for fear that the mung beans will die.
Fortunately, Ying Tianqing knew that she was sick and couldn't come, so she helped her weed, water, adjust the temperature and humidity from time to time.
The mung beans have already sprouted, but there are a lot of insect eggs. They should be aphids that have not yet hatched and need to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Ying Tianqing happened to be working in the fields and came over to discuss this topic with Su Liu.
"It depends on whether you need pesticides. The management office can buy them for you, but the price isn't very high. Also, if you want a high price, you'd rather have a lower yield and less pesticide residue."
In recent years, the situation in the universe has gradually stabilized, and interstellar people have regained their demand for food culture.
They like pure natural food without any additives or pesticides, whether it is vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs or poultry, the closer to nature the better.
Therefore, if too much pesticide is detected in vegetables, they cannot be sold at a high price, and no one may be willing to pay for it.
Su Liu looked at the dense aphid eggs on the seedlings and said worriedly, "Then we can only prevent and control them manually."
Afterwards, Su Liu went to buy two pounds of garlic, chopped it into a paste and made garlic water, which he poured into a spray bottle and poured over the mung bean seedlings.
Ying Tianqing was stunned. "You want to fry aphid eggs and eat them?"
"Garlicin stimulates the nerves of aphids, luring them away or driving them away," Su Liu said as he sprinkled the garlic under the scorching sun. "This is the most effective and safe method, and there will definitely be no pesticide residue."
Ying Tianqing found it unbelievable because this method was not taught in the textbook.
However, Su Liu also understood that garlic water alone could not cure the problem completely. If he wanted the mung beans to grow well, he had to consider other methods.
Back in the dormitory, Su Liu rummaged through the drawers and found a large piece of cardboard, cut it into several small pieces the size of A4 paper, and then painted a layer of yellow paint on it to attract aphids.
Insect sticky boards are easy to make, but insect glue is not easy to obtain.
Su Liu bought a small bottle of diesel, a box of cheap Vaseline, and sugar water for attracting insects online.
Boil these materials into a paste, spread it on yellow cardboard, and the simple insect sticky board is complete.
She then inserted the boards into mung bean bushes to naturally attract and kill the aphids.
A week later, the aphids were effectively eradicated, and a quick delivery from the imperial capital also arrived in Su Liu's hands.
