Chapter 333 Pretender
"Harold, do I need to feed these too? Can I take a rest first?" Kavi said dryly.
He had no doubt that if he continued feeding he would be sucked dry by these lovely plants.
"No, they don't need it." Seeing Kavi's worry, Harold chuckled.
"They are closer to plants, so they can photosynthesize. Although they have inherited the characteristics of their father and have elemental power flowing through their bodies, it is very weak. So in the same way, the elemental power in nature is enough for them to eat and grow well."
After hearing what Harold said, Kavi finally put down the burden in his heart and began to appreciate these special plants seriously.
He found that when he squatted down, their flowers would droop with his movements, as if they were lowering their heads, and when he touched their stamens, some of them would bend down to avoid him, while others would stay where they were and open their petals obediently.
Kavi was having fun when Harold said, "Senior, the stamens are the reproductive organs of plants. It's best not to touch them, otherwise they will think you want to have children with them."
"what?!"
Kavi's body froze, and he suddenly retracted his outstretched hand. He apologized to the little flowers with full of apology: "Sorry, I didn't know... I didn't mean it..."
Haroldt thought for a moment, "It doesn't matter if they misunderstood. They are reproductively isolated from the senior... No, it should be said that these hybrid offspring have no reproductive ability. Their stamens are just for show. They don't even produce nectar..."
Kavi covered his face and murmured in shame: "Stop it, stop it, Harold... I really didn't mean it... I will come to water you every day in the future, please forgive me?"
Harold suddenly said, "Senior, you can also transfer elemental power to them. They will definitely like it."
"Didn't you say it was unnecessary?" Kavi asked doubtfully.
Harold: "That's right, but the grass element is special. It not only provides the nutrients needed for flower growth,
According to Radu's records and Tinari's collaborative research, we found that continuously supplying elemental power to the flowers during their infancy can make them smarter."
"Is there a difference in IQ between them?" Kavi was surprised.
"It's even obvious between individuals. For example, Xiao Shiba's offspring have the same intelligence as a six-year-old child, and Radu is teaching them to count," said Harold.
Unfortunately, the physiological structure determines the upper limit of intelligence, and the IQ of these flowers will never reach that of Xiao Shiba.
Harold thought with regret, otherwise, the elemental force content of this person is no different from that of ordinary people, the vitality is tenacious, and it can be disguised as the hybrid offspring of sweet flower and mint, which is really suitable for being a spy.
Of course, the prerequisite is to teach them to type Morse code.
Kavi's mind was full of sweet flowers and mints that could do arithmetic. He felt novel and surprised, so he agreed to Harold's request immediately. Then, he couldn't help asking:
"Harold, what do you want to do with them? Do they have names?"
Harold answered quickly: "Sold to rich people as pets, yes, I call them 'Pretenders'."
Kavi's first reaction: The name "Pretender" is quite suitable for their characteristics, but it doesn't seem to have much aesthetic appeal.
Then he suddenly came to his senses: "Huh? Pet?!"
"Isn't it cute?" Harold said as he picked up a sweet flower pretender and poked its corolla. The pretender hooked his fingertips with its thin roots, as if acting coquettishly.
"They don't need to be watered regularly, they don't need to be fed, they don't have any bad odors, they don't breed bacteria, they don't attract insects or rodents, and you don't have to worry about their safety even if you leave them on the balcony for half a year."
Harold enumerates the advantages of having a Pretender as a pet.
When the traveler comes to Xumi, I will persuade him to buy a bunch, Harold thought.
Kavi nodded hesitantly: "...It seems to be true. What you said makes me a little tempted. If I raise such a pet, even El Haisen will have nothing to say."
"Or we could sell it to a theater. I asked Radu to negotiate with the manager of Zubair Theater. Their financial situation has improved a lot. The manager said frankly that if we could cultivate an acre of 'Pretenders', he would be willing to buy them all."
Harold bent down and put the small flower in his hand on the ground, thinking: Dancing flowers shine into reality, perhaps the Zubair Theater will soon be able to perform Disney fairy tales.
Kavi's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of more uses for the "Disguiser": "Can I also order a batch from you? I want to use them in my architectural design."
Harold: "Of course, this is one of my planned uses. Next, I will try to crossbreed the Xumi Rose, Patisalan, Glazed Lily and other plants with the Deception Flower."
But this experiment would be very difficult and might not succeed at all, Harold thought.
Harold's hypothesis excited Kavi, who could already imagine how these strange plants would shine in the field of architecture.
After chatting casually with Kavi about some family matters, Harold left the institute and walked into the rain forest. He found a swamp where crocodiles lived, pulled out the "Desert Eagle", and said in a low voice:
"Yasmine."
The runes on the wheel lit up immediately, and Haroldt pointed the gun at the largest crocodile in the swamp and pulled the trigger.
"boom!"
The sound of a gunshot startled the birds in the forest, and the bullet shattered, quickly generating a wind field. The trajectory of the wind was similar to that when Yasmini was not awakened, except that it was faster, had a larger range, and had a stronger suction force.
Dozens of crocodiles were gradually pulled into the wind field due to the movement of the wind. They flapped their tails and struggled hard, but still could not escape the control of the wind.
As they were dragged into the wind field, tiny cuts quickly appeared on the surface of their hard skin. The wind and water turned into sharp blades, causing exponential damage. Most of the crocodiles were cut into pieces in just two seconds.
Alligators that were out of attack range, with half their heads floating in the water or taking a nap by the swamp, all dived into the pool.
The movement of the wind lasted for eight seconds, and when the wind field disappeared, there were no active animals around.
"Yasmine, can you summon a sandstorm here?" Harold asked.
The Red King's seal retained Yasmine's power as a town spirit to the maximum extent. Although this prevented her from growing, she would not lose her power due to excessive consumption. Making ordinary bullets and generating small wind fields were completely within her tolerance.
But Yasmini is not the most powerful spirit. Her power is still extremely small compared to that of gods. She cannot continuously release power to create special bullets, and when she reaches her limit, she has to fall into a deep sleep.
Harold needs more practice to be able to control himself well to avoid accidents during battle.
Yasmine, who had remained silent, said, "My master, I am willing to do my best for you, but the rainforest will infinitely weaken the power of the yellow sand. If you are willing to move to the open land, I can perform the dance of wind and sand for you."
