Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 226 Visit
"Everyone line up! The class monitor will take this down, and each student should wear one."

A staff member came over carrying a small box containing wristband tags, which are temporary passes for entering the ecological institute.

Xia went up to get the tags and distributed them to everyone.

"Speaking of which, aren't we supposed to be on a group tour today? Why do we still need to wear this?" Leon muttered as he hung the bracelet on his wrist.

“This has a little magic on it,” Caesar said, shaking the bracelet he was already wearing on his wrist.

"This bracelet has been soaked in a special alchemical solution. Through the Ecological Institute's internal magical monitoring system, the wearer's location within the Ecological Institute can be accurately located. In general, it prevents you from entering areas you shouldn't be in."

"Wow, this is my first time experiencing magic!" Leon looked at the bracelet with great curiosity.

"Caesar, how do you know so much?"

A classmate nearby asked in confusion.

"I've come here a few times before for academic matters and have learned a bit about it," Caesar said simply.

"Hey, hey, you guys have no idea! I'm not bragging, but Caesar is a regular at the Institute of Ecology now. He doesn't even need an appointment to get in, and Professor Muirner personally greets him." Leon stood proudly next to Caesar, patting him on the shoulder as he spoke.

"Hey, you"

Just as Caesar was about to say that Leon was being nosy, some classmates crowded around and asked in surprise, "Really? Caesar, do you come here often?"

"Have you met Professor Muirner? What kind of person is she?"

"Caesar, may I ask you if I don't understand something later?"

A group of people immediately surrounded him, and Caesar didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, at that moment, Teacher Taylor shouted, and all the students quickly stood back up.

"Why are you saying so much?" he said to Leon with dissatisfaction.

“Hey, why keep this a secret? If I were you, I’d be eager to brag about it everywhere,” Leon said.

“You think everyone is as concerned about saving face as you are?” Tess glared at him, then moved closer to Caesar.

"Caesar, I'll be counting on you for a bit."

"Hehehe"

Caesar chuckled twice; this was probably what it felt like to have connections.

"Later, we carried the antelope down the mountain together and waited for it to recover before releasing it back into the forest. When it left, it took one step and looked back at us. We were all very reluctant to part with it."

"Müller said with a sigh."

“Wow…” Yumilia’s eyes shone with longing. “Professor Muirna, your scientific expedition was so amazing.”

"Haha, if you take away the difficult living conditions, the harsh natural environment, and the tedious work, it is indeed very interesting."

Muirner shrugged.

“But I think it’s amazing to witness so many beautiful sights that ordinary people never see in their entire lives. Even if it’s a bit tough, it’s all worth it, right?” Yumilia said.

Then she asked expectantly:
"If I achieve satisfactory academic results in the future, will I also have the opportunity to participate in scientific expeditions?"

“Of course, if you’re willing, I can take you with me next time I go on a field survey so you can experience it,” Muirna said.

“Really? That’s great!” Yumilia exclaimed happily.

But then she remembered something and lowered her head: "But I still have Caesar to take care of."

"It's okay, Xiao Sa is very good at taking care of himself, and even if you're worried, you can all come with him."

She paused for a moment, as if remembering something, and then said, "You see, Xiao Sa's field research here last time went very smoothly, I believe you will be fine too."

Muirner thought for a moment and said, "Well, we can wait until next summer vacation, in July. I'll be going to the Western Ocean for research then, so it should be more relaxed. I'll reserve two spots for you to apply with Xiao Sa. The scenery there is beautiful during the windy season; you can treat it like a tourist trip."

“Well, thank you, Professor,” Yumilia said.

Yumilia felt a little embarrassed, as if Muirna had given them preferential treatment.

Muirner picked up the glass, drank the remaining juice in one gulp, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and glanced at his watch.

"Oh, so much time has passed. Our break is over, we should head back now."

"OK, all right."

Yumilia quickly finished her juice, picked up her beret from the table, put it on, and slung her backpack over her shoulder.

They arrived at the entrance of greenhouse number 7.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance, Yumilia felt the intense heat inside, along with the strong scent of the forest.

Inside the spacious, enclosed space, lush and diverse vegetation filled the greenhouse, with abundant branches and leaves covering the entire ceiling, making it feel as if one had traveled through space and arrived in a tropical rainforest.

“It’s completely different from the greenhouse in our botanical garden.” Yumilia looked around with wide eyes.

Compared to this, the greenhouse in the botanical garden is practically a vegetable shed.

“Greenhouse No. 7 is mostly planted with lepidopteran plants, which grow very vigorously. If you have the chance next time, I can take you to see Greenhouse No. 14, which is full of Rosaceae plants, which are especially beautiful,” Muirna said.

Yumilia looked around curiously at these plants she had never seen before.

"Oh, right, Professor," she suddenly remembered, "you're going to greet visiting students today, aren't you? You'll be very busy, won't you?"

“It’s alright, we’ve arranged for someone to go over there, it’s not time we need me yet,” Muirner said.

"Instead of that, let me show you around the place first."

"Dear students, our first stop is Greenhouse No. 4, which covers an area of ​​1320 square meters. It mainly grows plants of the Poaceae family, the most common of which is the palm tree, which is on your left."

A guide in a white coat led the students into the greenhouse and explained things to them.

The guide, whom Caesar recognized, was Zhu Liang, whose name Muirna had borrowed when he first came here.

She was probably temporarily assigned to be the guide; she was expressionless when explaining the characteristics of the plants, looking both experienced and lifeless.

Greenhouse No. 4 is also one of the greenhouses that the Institute of Ecology has been showcasing to the public for a long time. A lot of effort has been put into its layout, and the plants grown there are mostly ornamental, quite different from the strange and dangerous plants that Caesar saw in other greenhouses.
After showing the students around the greenhouse, Zhu Liang let them have free time.

“Caesar, look at this blade of grass, it looks like a fly swatter!” Leon said, pointing to the small, yellowish-green plant inside the fence.

“That’s a flytail, a carnivorous plant. It grows like this to make it easier to catch insects,” Caesar said.

“That’s great. These days even plants are eating meat,” Leon said.

Xia gazed at a crystal-clear, jelly-like substance growing on a tree trunk inside the fence, and curiously reached out to touch it.

But then a hand grabbed her wrist and pressed her down.

“This is the secretion of parasites on the camphor tree; direct contact can cause skin infections,” Caesar said beside her.

"Oh"

Xia glanced at him, gave a soft "hmm," and then took a step to the side.

Caesar looked at her with a puzzled expression. He sensed that Sia was deliberately avoiding him today.
