Chapter 127 Three Duck Eggs
After finishing the morning classes, Heshia and Mel went to the forest tree house for lunch at noon.
In the large tree hole restaurant, a row of birds were perched on the high dome of the tree, and below was a trapezoidal staircase connecting the rooms on the inner wall of the tree.
At the bottom, there were dozens of large tables in the spacious restaurant, which could accommodate 500 people for dinner. After the students finished their meals, they came to the table to enjoy.
"Today we have transparent osmanthus cakes and free apples." Mel said quietly and happily.
She was not short of money, but she was still very happy when she saw the T5-level crimson apples given by the restaurant. Although this kind of apple had no extraordinary effects, it tasted sweet and crisp, without astringency, and was very delicious.
"Here~" Soon after sitting down, she happily handed a piece of amber transparent cake on the plate to Heshia.
T4-level crushed golden osmanthus cake, made of Jinyu honey, autumn three-leaf osmanthus, Chenxi flour, and other extraordinary materials, has certain extraordinary effects. It can warm the body and restore a certain amount of energy.
How generous, Heshia thought. Although she had enjoyed many T4-level delicacies at Edes Academy, the people at Iris Academy were more frugal.
Firstly, many of the things at Edes Academy were provided for free. Secondly, she was not worried about the debts. She simply ate some of the benefits provided by Edes Academy.
But it was different at Iris Academy. She had to spend money to buy them. She was naturally distressed because she did not have enough money, so she generally did not go out of her way to buy these things.
"Thank you."
Knowing that if she refused, the girl with dark purple hair might cry, Heshia nodded. Mel on the opposite side happily touched the cat in front of her.
After that, the two of them talked about the recent courses while eating lunch.
"It doesn't feel difficult overall. I should be able to keep up with the progress and won't hold Heshia back." Mel said.
"It's okay. Don't force yourself." Heshia comforted her. In fact, she was not the kind of person who valued grades and alienated others.
"No, grandma said that people should know themselves and not do shameless things casually." Mel insisted rarely, and it seemed that she also had "guts".
"The teacher said that we should go to him to get duck eggs and incubators in the afternoon, let us hatch ducklings, and then cultivate them in the next few months." Mel talked about the teacher's teachings in class.
This is probably the training of young birds mentioned in the academy mission. At first, Heshia will be an extraordinary animal, but if you think about it carefully, they have just entered school, it should not be so difficult. The ducks they are currently training are probably just ordinary animals.
An hour later, the two came to the bird breeding house in the forest. There are many senior students and some academy staff here.
The two walked in this tall building and could see birds flying overhead from time to time.
"Look, that's a pure white three-feathered bird~"
Mel pointed to a bird flying in the air. It was snow-white and had three long tail feathers behind it. This was a light feather sequence 3 extraordinary bird, and it was also a relatively expensive ornamental pet bird. If it was good, it could be sold for more than 100,000 federal coins.
Only a small part of the income of Iris Academy comes from student tuition, and most of it comes from other businesses run by the academy, such as the rental of extraordinary animals, pet training, medical treatment, and the production of some rare extraordinary resources.
Many of the staff in these industries were students of Iris Academy before. The academy trains talents for itself, which not only solves the problem of students' employment, but also greatly satisfies its own needs for talents and manpower. Therefore, the finances of Iris Academy have always been healthy, but not as good as those of top academies such as Edes Academy.
"That is a dark-clawed owl, which likes to move at night. Many cemeteries will raise this kind of bird for care and to prevent ghosts from haunting."
"This is a red-clawed falcon, which has a sharp and fierce cry, sharp claws, and hard feathers. It is also an extraordinary animal with combat capabilities."
"The ones with big mouths are spotted gannets. They are usually lazy and greedy. If they are not trained well, they will even bloat to death." Mel seemed to be very familiar with these extraordinary animals and introduced them to Heshia one by one.
There are various extraordinary animals cultivated in the Iris Court Academy, but in general, birds are the best. It is said that hundreds of years ago, when the Wind Kite Courtyard was at its peak, there was a Sequence 8 Sky-Revelation Wind Kite, which is why they were named the Wind Kite Courtyard.
"Puppies are also very cute, but they will be bad when they grow up." Mel touched the little yellow dog that was begging for food by her legs, then picked it up and touched its bulging belly.
"This guy eats so much."
Hearing Mel's evaluation, Heshia couldn't help but laugh, and walked over to touch the little guy.
After a while, the two put down the puppy and continued forward to a room with fewer people, where several classmates were already picking duck eggs.
"Here are all improved Call duck eggs. Each of you should pick three to hatch and cultivate a qualified pet Call duck before the end of the year. Even if you get 80 points in this subject, you will get extra points and rewards if you get better." The teacher told them.
"This doesn't seem difficult. Call ducks are white ducks with flat beaks and are cute?"
"Yes, as a primary pet, they are still popular in the market. If you can cultivate them well, the academy will give you a part of the bonus. This can be regarded as an early experience of the income of a breeder." The teacher introduced it.
"I am eager to try it after hearing this." Several students were very happy.
Mel, holding the gray moon cat in his arms, also looked at the eggs arranged with a little expectation, and began to stroke them carefully and then select them.
Heshia thought about it for a while, and used her job ability to observe these duck eggs. They were basically fertilized duck eggs, but they have not been hatched yet, and there are not many to compare.
Finally, she and Mel each picked out three duck eggs, put them into the incubator prepared on the side, and then carried them back to the dormitory.
As long as the incubator is powered on, it can slowly heat the duck eggs to a suitable temperature and finally hatch them. In the early stage, it is good to keep them on the balcony of the dormitory. After that, it is time to train the hatched ducklings. The teacher will also teach the matters to pay attention to at each stage step by step in the classroom, so that they can learn and practice at the same time.
Back in the dormitory, Heshia put the incubator in place, plugged it in, and then sat at the table in the living room to read. In fact, many theoretical courses are not worse than self-study in class. Most of the practical courses arranged for her by the academy are practical courses. The theoretical part requires her to study in advance, which can save a lot of time.
At night, Heshia took a bath and was about to go back to the bedroom to sleep, when she suddenly saw that there seemed to be light in the living room.
When she walked over, she found that the indigo snake opened the incubator and then surrounded the three duck eggs by itself. It exuded a faint warm light, warming the surrounding temperature.
"Do you want to hatch eggs too, but they are not snake eggs, but duck eggs, stupid~" As she said, Heshia knocked on the little snake's head, trying to take out a few duck eggs and put them back in the incubator.
However, the indigo snake wrapped around her hand, protecting the three eggs below, and seemed very reluctant.
After that, Heshia tried a few more times, but unfortunately this guy seemed to have made up his mind and wanted to hatch the eggs by himself.
"Okay, you can hatch the eggs, but the temperature must be suitable. Don't let me see three roasted duck eggs when I wake up the next day." Heshia warned the little snake and knocked again before going to bed helplessly.
She gave up temporarily because she saw that the temperature maintained by the indigo snake was suitable and not too high. Otherwise, she would still pick up this guy and use the incubator instead.
But since it insisted so much, she would obey it this time. After all, she was not such a harsh and strict person.
