Wizards Begin with Occlumency

Chapter 140 One Small Step, One Giant Leap
Lanny Taylor has mixed feelings.

After agreeing to form a team, Link Grande kept his promise.

In the past few days, I would contact her every day to tell her what she needed to do that day.

Never stopped, never delayed.

Link even took some time to share their team's research results with her very candidly.

Really let her and her team know what they are doing and why.

Rather than prevarication and perfunctory, wasted labor.

This surprised Lanny very much.

She originally thought that she would need to keep digging around to find out this information.

In the end, a lot of labor must be paid in exchange for a small gain from the other party's intelligence.

Who knew it was so easy and comprehensive.

There is no need to fight wits and courage at all, and pull back and forth.

It is only necessary to report the results and data of the things done every day.

Link didn't seem to know how valuable the news he said was, so he "leaked" it casually.

Lanie couldn't figure out what Link was thinking.

If it were her, she would definitely not reveal the news so easily.

At least it will take a few days of hard work for nothing.

What did Link think?

Link just wanted to communicate frankly.

After all, it is far more efficient to drive people to do things than to guide them to take the initiative to do things.

Just using a whip to whip a donkey will cause it to buckle over time.

Not to mention people.

But hanging a carrot in front of the donkey's eyes is completely different.

In order to eat the carrots in its mouth, the donkey will endure hardships and stand hard work, pulling the mill and pulling the cart without complaint.

In Link's view, Lanie Taylor and her team are just donkeys that are still wild.

It is very likely that there will be a situation where you can't go, and you can't go backwards.

In order to better control the donkey, a "carrot" must be hung.

Sweet and delicious, delicious and tempting.

Let them see the hope of completing the mission of the faction, even overtaking on a curve, and the possibility of completing the mission of the faction before the Link team,
Instead of doing this and that in a daze, without even knowing the reason for doing these things.

It is the "carrot" carefully selected by Link.

Open communication is the way to dangle the carrot.

It turns out that honest communication works really well.

The role of "carrot" is very prominent.

Lanny's team members, 5 members of the "New Blood Mutual Aid Association" and 5 members of other apprentice organizations, no longer have much resistance to teaming up with Link.

After receiving the task, even if each of them does not work hard, they will not cheat and cheat.

Lan Ni saw all these changes before and after.

There is a faint feeling that if you steal chickens, you won't lose money.

She thought Link's wisdom, exploration and innovative thinking in vain had indeed arrived in vain.

But the problem is that he was also voted for nothing.

And was voted even harder!
She had a strong premonition that Link Grande was rapidly moving towards his goal.

After I took the initiative to deliver it to the door and gave help.

……

Munro Bricegno calmly accepted Iris Clark's departure.

In fact, even if he doesn't accept it, there is no other way.

Prevent?

Iris was really going crazy, and Munro couldn't bear her wrath.

Although it is also a space storage witchcraft, the storage capacity of the cowhide bag on Munro's waist is far less than that of the small bag on Iris's waist.

Moreover, there is also a huge gap in wealth between the two.

When it was time to start a battle, Munro ran out of rune items and witchcraft, and Iris continued to search for the self-explosive version of the fire mine.

He didn't want to be bombarded again.

That would be a complete loss of face.

As for Link Grande, who induced Iris to leave the team.

To be honest, Munro wasn't jealous at all.

He knew very well that Iris did not leave the team because of Link Grande.

The reason is that I have neither gained the trust of Iris in the past time, nor have I been able to hide my good intentions, and she saw it out.

This time, if Munro blames Link Grande;
So, who will he blame next time a similar or non-similar question arises?

A person who is always angry at others and does not have the awareness and courage to face his own mistakes cannot become a great person.

Munro has high ambitions, but he doesn't want to be a wizard's apprentice for a lifetime!
He didn't want to lie to himself.

On the contrary, Munro admired Link Grande very much, especially after direct communication.

He had no doubts about Link's status as a genius in botany and pharmacy.

After teaming up with Iris, Munro got busy with a few people who believed in him.

First, through some connections, he entered a ruins that had been discovered.

After carefully observing the various records in the ruins, Munro confirmed that the war between the godslayer and the gods did indeed take place in the history of this world.

This confirmed Link Grande's "destructive rescue" remarks.

At least the gigantic size of carnivorous animals, the mutation of some plants, and the changes of very few herbivores can all find logical and self-consistent explanations.

In this case, it is necessary to act as soon as possible.

Not to mention completing the faction missions before Link Grande, at least improve the participation, performance and achievements of yourself and your team in the faction missions.

In the competition between the two districts, the academy seemed to throw the wizard apprentices into this world, and it hardly cared about it.

But all the actions of all wizard apprentices are clearly recorded by the academy.

Otherwise, how would the academy score and rank?
Research and experimentation are not what Munro is good at.

If you force it, the progress will not be fast, and the effect may not be very good.

Munro's choice was to use all means to eliminate a batch of those giant carnivorous animals first.

Therefore, while the Iris team was killing the Quartet, the Monroe team was also killing the Quartet.

The difference is that Iris killed the pure blood of the opposing camp, especially the members of "Pure Blood Will";
Munro, on the other hand, killed giant carnivorous animals, and often jumped out to hunt monsters when the hunt organized by the opposing camp was about to succeed.

For a time, Team Iris and Team Munro made the opposing camp miserable.

Under the organization of some caring people, a siege operation against the Iris team and the Monroe team is about to start.

……

Link is thankful that he has a lot of witchcraft in reserve.

In the research and experiments of reconstructing the ecosystem, many processes and procedures that require a certain amount of time have been greatly reduced and efficiency improved with the assistance of many witchcraft with different functions.

In just three days and three nights, the experiment to reconstruct the ecosystem cycle based on the premise of destroying giant carnivores has produced phased results.

The temperature rose to a certain level and after four large killer fish died in succession, the size of the killer fish that were subsequently reproduced obviously tended to become smaller.

It's not just carnivores that are changing.

Microorganisms, plants, and herbivores have all undergone adaptive changes accordingly.

After a rough comparative assessment, Link believes that in terms of sustainable development, the reconstructed ecosystem has more advantages than the existing ecosystem.

However, at the current stage of this research, the experimental conditions are not sufficient, the experimental process lacks rigor, and the experimental data has insufficient reliability and validity, so it is not enough to declare success.

Link urgently needs a larger and more suitable venue, more and more complete experimental materials, and better and more sophisticated experimental equipment to conduct a longer and more rigorous experiment.

Only in this way can it be regarded as a qualified research and produce a qualified "paper".

Well……

The above appeals are based on the academic instinct of researchers.

Actually, Link doesn't need to do that.

What is the initial purpose of launching research and experiments on the ecosystem of this world?
It's not really about reconstructing a very complete ecosystem.

It is to verify whether reconstructing a sustainable ecosystem can save the world.

Everything Link has done before, including exchanging equipment, arranging a team to analyze water samples, soil, and biological samples, and reconstructing the ecosystem in three directions, are all preliminary demonstrations.

The results of the argument do not need to be rigorous, as long as the logic is self-consistent.

Now, Link has achieved phased results.

That is, increasing the temperature can trigger the demise of the giant carnivorous animals that consume the most resources in this side of the world, thereby optimizing the ecological structure and making the existing, unbalanced ecosystem tend to normal and sustainable development.

In this way, the conditions for the world to recuperate are met, and time is bought for the slow recovery of the world's origin.

Preliminary demonstrations yielded the desired results.

The next step, is to find a place to submit a "report".

The power of apprentice wizards is limited. Even if they find a way to save or destroy the world, it is impossible to implement it by themselves.

Therefore, Link concluded that the college must have arranged a certain "place" or a certain "role" to help the reference wizard apprentices to verify their plans.

Where is this "place" or this "role" is a question.

According to the college's usual style, it is impossible to tell the reference apprentice directly.

It is necessary to refer to apprentices to guess, find, and verify by themselves.

In this regard, Link has a bold guess.

He wanted to verify verification.

"Come on, everyone, come here."

This morning, Link gathered the team members who had been hiding under the sandbank and had been conducting research and experiments for three days regardless of the changes in the outside world.

"Boss, what are your orders?"

Barker has a faint tendency to become the joint spokesperson of the Brotherhood of Brothers and the Social Terrorist Group.

Every time Link gathers everyone, he is basically the one who answers first.

The mouth replaces the real hammer.

"There is no order, but there is one thing that requires everyone to work together."

Link said calmly: "This matter is quite urgent. We may need to work overtime to complete it as soon as possible."

"Boss, you can give the orders directly."

Buck banged his chest hard, made a dull sound, and shouted loudly, "We brothers and sisters will never hold back the boss, and we will resolutely complete the mission!"

Getting used to Buck's mischief, Link didn't think it was disobedient, but rather liked it.

It's nice to have someone on the team who is responsible for the atmosphere.

Happy learning, happy work, happy life.

He continued: "Everyone, please summarize the experimental records and experimental data that you are responsible for within two hours, form a paper report, and then hand it over to me."

Naturally, a report cannot be just a few dry words.

There must be detailed experimental records, detailed experimental data, and self-consistent internal logic.

A large number of analyzes of water samples, soil, plant specimens, and animal specimens come in handy at this time.

Aiming at the three directions, adopting different intervention methods and reconstructing three different ecosystems, the meaning will be reflected.

Everything is to confirm the idea of ​​"destructive rescue".

All for a report on a feasible plan to save the world.

"No problem, boss."

Buck responded and led the Friends Group and Social Terrorism Group to work enthusiastically.

Jasmine stayed behind, and when everyone was busy, she walked to Link and asked in a low voice, "Is there any progress?"

She knew Link's habits.

When a large amount of data is needed, that’s when the research yields results.

"Ah."

Link didn't hide it from Jasmine, and nodded, "I have a guess, and I want to verify it."

"What guess, is it convenient to say?"

Jasmine asked.

She has been chasing Link's footsteps, getting closer to Link in every aspect.

Understanding Link's way of thinking helped her a lot.

"It's hard to say for the time being, I don't have a bottom line myself."

Link thought for a while, but still didn't tell Jasmine the bold guess that suddenly popped up in his heart.

It's not that they can't trust Jasmine.

It's just that this guess is really too outrageous.

"Ok."

Jasmine shrugged and said without asking further, "If you need to take risks, you must pay attention to safety."

I have to say that women’s intuition is very accurate.

Although Jasmine couldn't guess what the guess that Link wanted to verify was, she had an intuition that this was a matter with a relatively high risk factor.

Only in this way, Link himself has no idea.

Don't want to say much before you act.

"Well, I will."

Link said with a smile, and then said a word of relief, "Don't worry, nothing unexpected will happen."

Jasmine didn't say anything, she turned around and left.

She was in charge of several experiments and had to collect records.

In less than two hours, Link received piles of sorted experiment records and experimental data.

Get into the tent, hang a discarded magic stone for lighting, and spread out the paper and pen.

Link sorted out his thoughts a little bit, and wrote quickly.

From the abnormality of the ecological environment, the mutation of some plants, the mutation of some herbivores, the relatively normal size of most herbivores, and the gigantic size of almost all carnivores,
To water samples, soil composition testing, analysis, comparison,
Then to the reconstructed ecosystem experiment based on plant "gene" improvement, and the reconstructed ecosystem experiment based on herbivorous animal "gene" improvement,
Finally, to the reconstruction of the ecosystem experiment based on the "natural" destruction of giant carnivores,
Link wrote down everything in detail.

Complete records and detailed data.

After the foreshadowing was completed, Link put forward his own plan of "destructive rescue", and began to make logical arguments based on the above records and data.

In terms of wording, Link tried his best to use plain language and reduce the use of academic terms.

After several revisions and polishes, a 50-page report was completed in nearly eight hours.

Link took a short rest, drank some water, ate some dry food, and then, working hard, he began to verify his guess about a certain "place" and a certain "character".

He first asked Jasmine to lead everyone out of the tunnel, go to the surface of the sandbar, and get ready to cross the river at any time.

Then, alone, I walked into the secret passage again.

This time, Link didn't open the bronze gate with thorns, but opened it himself.

There was a creaking sound.

The bronze door opened slowly.

The dead bones guarding the coffin with a big sword came into Link's eyes.

Staring into the empty eye sockets for a long time, Link took a deep breath, took a small step, and placed the thick stack of reports in his hand in front of the withered bones.

If you want to find a "person" who is willing to save this world,
Link thought,

The Godslayer might be.

Take a wild guess.

As for whether it is, let's wait a while.
