Cornflower Witch

Chapter 295 The Inscription of 'Morning Dew and Verdant Green'
During her stay in the 'Dark Sand Valley', Hilti spent her time either observing the machinery in operation or fishing in the calmer parts of the river.

"Miss Tia, this is the bait that the 'Golden Magnetic Fish' loves to eat." The butler here gave her several packets of bait and a fishing rod.

In the afternoon, Hilti came to a large tree, sat on a rock by the river, cast out her fishing line, and waited patiently.

At first, she didn't care when she caught a fish; she was thinking about the development of the 'golden steam' sexuality and the differences between the two worlds.

However, after sitting for several hours without catching a fish, even the patient Hilti began to doubt her fishing skills.

Is it because there are no fish here, or because she didn't bait the area? The girl immediately recalled some online experiences from her previous life.

However, this girl in this life clearly possesses powerful abilities that are not those of a fisherman. She took a deep breath, then opened her eyes again, a strange light blooming in her pupils. Her gaze then pierced through the murky river mud and sand, searching for the target underwater.

Sure enough, there were no fish here; it wasn't that she was bad at fishing.

Hiltiya picked up her fishing rod and started walking along the riverbank again, her eyes searching.

To her surprise, the areas where the 'golden magnetic fish' gathered most were precisely the areas with rapid currents. They seemed to enjoy fighting against the high-speed currents and maintaining their shape and position.

That's interesting. Hiltiya prepared the bait again, hooked it on the hook, and cast it in.

The fishhook and bait bobbed up and down in the swift current. Soon, a 'golden magnet' cautiously approached, slowly nibbled at the bait, but did not swallow the hook.

Seeing this, Hilti was getting a little anxious. She felt she should be more patient, so she took a deep breath and continued to wait.

Then two more golden magnetic fish came over. They circled the hook, nibbling at the bait little by little, but they refused to bite the hook, leaving Hilti to watch helplessly as the bait was eaten up.

"Aren't these guys too cunning?" the girl thought. She took out another piece of bait, hooked it onto the hook, and cast it into the water again.

Unfortunately, the situation remained largely the same as before, with the golden magnet fish still managing to carefully avoid the hook.

"So clever?" Hiltiya put away her fishing rod and pondered a solution. "Could it be because the hook is made of metal? The magnetic fish can sense metal using magnetism." She suddenly remembered the information in the data.

Let's try a different method. Hilti took out a small vine seed, catalyzed the slender vine to grow, then she attached bait to the end, letting the curled tips of the vine wrap around and bind it, before throwing the vine into the water.

This time, the golden maggot slowly approached again and began to nibble at the bait.

However, what awaited them was not a rigid fishhook, but a flexible and powerful vine. The tendrils of the vine suddenly wrapped around the fish's body, binding it, and then the vine picked it up and dragged it to the riverbank.

They've caught it! They really didn't give me any face before. The girl showed a happy expression. As for whether this behavior was fishing or catching fish, only Si Chen knew.

After catching about twenty golden magnetic fish, Hilti felt that was enough and carried the small bucket full of fish back home.

With these fish, we should be able to use them to prepare the materials needed for the fertile soil process.

The next day, she bought a bag of "Tier 1 Excellent" quality "Agate Stones" at the nearby "Dark Sand Valley". Hilti placed the prepared "Golden Magnetic Fish", "Holy Spring Water", and "Agate Stones" on the table. First, she dried and ground the "Golden Magnetic Fish" into powder. This process wasn't difficult, but the scales of the Golden Magnetic Fish were similar to metal and became harder after drying. Hilti borrowed grinding equipment from the local alchemists to completely grind them into powder.

Then, using the method recorded in the Fertile Soil Method, a small amount of 'purifying holy water' is added to remove the impurities, leaving relatively pure material powder, which is then placed in a dish.

Then, the powdered goldfish, the holy spring water, and the agate stone were placed in a small ritual array, and through a special fertile soil ritual, the three were slowly fused together.

The agate stone first shines brightly, then is poured into a basin, and pure spring water is added, which diffuses the light, making the entire liquid glow. Finally, gold magnetite powder is added, and a reaction begins, with the color changing several times.

Finally, the light faded, the agate stone at the bottom of the basin had softened and crumbled, and the clear spring water had become dim and dull, but the powder at the bottom of the water emitted a special aroma.

After filtering out the excess water and agate stones, Hiltiya took out the powder from the bottom of the water, dried it, and then this powder became the material for the 'Fertile Soil Technique'.

Taking a small portion and scattering it on the 'Golden Plow' seeds on the ground, Hiltiya began to cast the 'Great Tree Sprouting' secret technique.

The seed unfurled and sprouted, absorbing the nutrients and power from the powder, and then grew rapidly, soon reaching the same height as Hilti, and then gradually climbing, continuously extending its branches and canopy.

Five minutes later, the 'Golden Plow' tree had grown to the height of a three-story building, with a sturdy trunk and lush foliage.

Hiltiya continued to sprinkle powder, then catalyzed growth, and the tree continued to extend upwards, reaching the height of a five-story building in ten minutes.

Golden flowers bloom on the tree, their petals containing pale gold veins that resemble metal.

At this moment, the 'Golden Plow' tree in front of them had already condensed the nature of 'First-Tier Emerald Honey' and was in excellent condition.

Unfortunately, the ability of 'tree sprouting' ends there. The subsequent pollination and fruiting cannot be carried out in a short time. In particular, 'Golden Plow' is not an ordinary plant, but a special plant cultivated by horticulturists, and its fruit is at least of 'Tier 1' material.

Of the three—flowering, pollination, and fruiting—Hiltiya currently only knows the flower-blooming method. Only if she can learn the other two can she catalyze the plants in front of her to produce high-quality fruit.

Although it's not perfect yet, the tree full of golden flowers still gives people a beautiful feeling, making the girl very happy.

If cameras existed in this era, she would probably stand under the tree and take a picture to commemorate the occasion.

Wait, she does seem to have the ability to record it. Hilti took out the 'Seven-Colored Picture Book', dipped her finger into a piece of the magical color 'Morning Dew Green', pointed it at the big tree in front of her, and blinked her eyes.

A special photograph was taken, in which a large tree was in full bloom with golden petals, looking 'lifelike'. But when Sylvia moved away from the picture, the tree in reality was no longer there.

In other words, was the real tree sealed and preserved within this photographic 'page'?

This was the first time Hilti had experienced the usefulness of picture books, and this one experience alone made her think of many things.

Space folding, time freezing, spacetime stripping, or matter compression, etc., it is difficult to explain its effects with past scientific knowledge. It is probably some kind of ability that transcends imagination, a miracle bestowed by another world.
