"This fruit looks like... an orange fruit?"
Mark put the fruit to his nose and sniffed it, then put the fruit on the red antennae on the caterpillar's forehead and asked the caterpillar to help check...
Chapter 26: Hidden Tricks for Adding Points (Please Read)
"Hiss? Hiss, hiss. Hiss."
The aroma of the fruit felt familiar, and the caterpillar suddenly thought of something and touched the side of Mark's backpack with its forelimbs.
"You mean the medicine for injuries?"
Mark opened the zipper on the right side of the backpack and took out the bottle of medicine inside.
"If I smell this fruit carefully, it does smell like medicine for wounds, and orange fruit is the main ingredient of medicine for wounds. So, it must be orange fruit. But why do I feel that this fruit has a bad smell, and this smell is familiar?"
The caterpillar tilted its head with a puzzled look on its face. It didn't notice the stench that Mark mentioned at all.
It sniffed the fruit in Mark's hand with its tentacles again, but still didn't smell any bad smell.
Then, the Caterpillar noticed that Mark suddenly pinched his antennae hard with his fingers.
A pungent odor emanated.
The red antennae on the top of the caterpillar's head are not only its sensory organs, but can also secrete smelly liquid to deal with natural enemies.
At this time, the smelly liquid secreted by the caterpillar's antennae is exactly the same as the smell emitted by the orange fruit.
Mark thought of something and looked up, and saw several trees full of orange fruits.
It's already obvious.
As an orange fruit tree with healing properties, it is undoubtedly very popular among the elves in the forest.
If left alone, the orange fruits here will soon be picked up by the elves in the forest, so the caterpillar leader uses the scent glands on his antennae to spray these orange fruits with smelly liquid to prevent other elves from picking the orange fruits here.
As for why the caterpillar did not feel the bad smell on the fruit just now, it was because the caterpillar had long been accustomed to this smell, so it did not feel it for a while.
Mark said thoughtfully: "Green Caterpillar, I know why the Green Caterpillar leader is so big."
"hiss?"
The Caterpillar looked puzzled, obviously not following Mark's train of thought.
Mark guessed, "Orange fruit has a healing effect and contains nutrients related to life. Eating this fruit for a long time will promote the physical fitness of the elves and break their own limits. The green caterpillar leader probably ate this fruit for a long time, which made his body size far beyond that of ordinary green caterpillars."
The green caterpillar suspiciously put the orange fruit into its mouth and chewed it.
The taste of the orange fruit is actually not very good, not as good as ordinary fruits, but as the fruit is digested in the stomach, the caterpillar feels a strange nutrient nourishing its body, and it feels warm.
Mark opened the Spirit Master panel at the right time to watch the changes in the experience bar.
Compared with ordinary fruits and the meals at the village chief's house, this kind of fruit provides at least ten times more experience.
Mark asked the caterpillar, "How much of this fruit can you eat?"
"Hiss."
The caterpillar stretched out its limbs and gestured briefly. Although the fruit was very small, it was very filling. The caterpillar felt that if Mark grabbed two handfuls with his hands, it could eat for a whole day.
Mark nodded slightly, picked up two more orange fruits that had fallen to the ground from the bushes, tasted them himself, and watched the changes in the experience bar.
Although both of them ate orange fruits, his speed of gaining experience points was nearly half as slow as that of the Caterpillar, and his appetite was also smaller than that of the Caterpillar. He felt that he only ate a handful of fruits a day, and he would be full after eating three or four.
"It would be nice if the feeling of fullness wasn't so strong. So, if the two of us use orange fruit as food, the experience gained every day can reach about 5.5%. In addition, if I teach the caterpillar group the [Impact] technique, our experience gain efficiency can probably be increased by 1%, which means it will reach 6.5%, which is not much different from the previous 7%.
In addition, you can use some of your rest time to teach the caterpillar some mathematical knowledge, so that you can gain experience faster..."
Thinking of this, Mark looked at the caterpillar and said, "Go pick some orange fruits."
"hiss!"
The green caterpillar took immediate action, climbed up the fruit tree, and picked some orange fruits from the tree and dropped them to the ground.
Mark picked up a few of them, walked to the unconscious Caterpillar leader, crushed a few fruits and stuffed them into the Caterpillar leader's mouth to help him recover faster.
Seeing the sleeping green caterpillar leader swallowing, Mark nodded slightly, picked up two handfuls of orange fruits and placed them on the ground, saying: "Green caterpillar, you have never really understood what mathematics is. Today I will explain it to you. Look at these two piles of fruits."
Two piles of orange fruits, one big and one small.
Mark asked, "Which of these two piles of fruit do you think has more?"
Without thinking, the caterpillar placed its front legs on the pile of fruits.
Although it is not very smart, asking it this kind of question is simply an insult to its IQ.
Looking at the Caterpillar's expression as if it was looked down upon, Mark smiled and added some fruits to each of the two piles of fruits, making the two piles of fruits look almost the same.
Mark continued to ask: "So what now? Which of the two piles of fruit is larger?"
The caterpillar widened his eyes. The two piles of fruits looked almost identical, with exactly the same number.
"Hiss."
The Caterpillar didn't hesitate too much and responded decisively.
Mark smiled and arranged the two piles of fruits horizontally, matching the top and the bottom one by one.
Mark explained: "This is the most basic application of mathematics, counting numbers. You think there are the same number of oranges in two piles, but in fact there are 21 oranges in the first pile, which is one more than the 20 oranges in the second pile."
Mark placed the extra fruit on the caterpillar's forelimb.
The Caterpillar didn't pay much attention.
It stared at the two rows of orange fruits on the ground, with a confused look and some surprise, and it was obvious that it had developed an interest in mathematics.
Mark looked at the rising experience bar on the Spirit Master's panel and smiled, "Learning mathematics can not only increase the speed of gaining experience, but it will also be beneficial for you to comprehend superpowers in the future. It can improve your brain power and calculation ability.
It will be of great benefit to your future use of [telekinesis].
In addition, learning mathematics, physics, elf science and other knowledge is also beneficial to your and my points. After these two points, I have roughly understood the three hidden mechanisms of the points. "
The green caterpillar asked in confusion: "Hiss?"
Mark answered, “For the first mechanism, adding points may not necessarily lead to success, just like when we added points to the [Impact Training Method] last time, although we did achieve some results, it was essentially a failure.
The second mechanism, the length of the point-adding process, is related to our willpower.
The last dream that was added to the list lasted forty-seven years in total, but it could have ended in about ten years.
If I choose to give up after ten years, then our memory of the added points will only be retained for ten years, and the effect of the added points will only last for ten years.
As for the last third mechanism, which I think is the most important one - the specific process of adding points to dreams, it depends on our knowledge reserves.
For example, the skills of charging powerful strike, instant strike, hard and soft penetrating strike, and multi-combo strike that you master by adding points to the dream world are all based on the knowledge we have mastered in reality.
If we know nothing in reality, then even if we work hard in the added dream memory, the gains will be very pitiful..."
The green caterpillar tilted its head.
Mark's mysterious and impressive words made it feel very powerful. The only problem was that it didn't quite understand them.
Mark smiled and rubbed the caterpillar's head and said, "In short, remember one thing, whether it is you or me, we must work hard to learn knowledge and improve our own knowledge reserves.
Next I will teach you the most basic counting. When you have almost mastered it, I will teach you addition and subtraction, and then multiplication, division and mixed operations of four arithmetic operations.
As for me, it’s time to prepare for the entrance exam to the Elf Academy.
The content of these textbooks is really too little. If you want to learn knowledge systematically, you still have to go to the large library of the Elf Academy.
Speaking of which, we haven't been back to the village for a few days. I don't know if the teachers from Qingxi Village School have returned. Should we go back to the village to check?"
Mark and the Caterpillar acted quickly. They simply collected some orange fruits, taught the [Impact Training Method] to several of the leader's guards, and then set out on the road back to the village with the Caterpillar...
Chapter 27 The troublesome brat
late at night.
Old man Qian sat on a bench under the eaves, holding a cup of cold tea in his hand, or wolfberry water to be precise.
He would raise his head from time to time, wake up for a while, then close his eyes unconsciously and fall into a drowsy sleep for a while.
As for why Old Man Qian didn’t sleep in the middle of the night, the reason was simply two words - waiting for someone.
crunch--
Along with the sound of the gate being pushed open, two figures entered the courtyard, one in front and one behind.
It was Mark and the Caterpillar who returned from the forest.
The dazed old man Qian vaguely heard a sound. He yawned, rubbed his eyes, and suddenly woke up.
"Mark, you still remember to come back!!"
Old Man Qian stood up, as if he was going to teach Mark, who had not been seen for a few days, a lesson, but he suddenly discovered something and his eyes were attracted by that thing.
It was the same insect net that he had kept since his childhood.
The long pole of the net bag is made of pear wood, which he cut straight by knife one by one. It has been frequently wiped and maintained with tung oil over the years, making it extremely tough.
The net was rewoven by him a few years ago using the hard silk of caterpillars. As long as it is not damaged violently, it will be able to be used for several years.
He thought that the insect net bag had been lost by Mark, but he didn't expect that Mark actually brought it back.
Old Man Qian walked up to Mark, picked up the insect net bag, looked it up and down in the moonlight, and then wiped the dirt and plant juice stains on it with his sleeve.
Old Man Qian asked, "Why didn't you bring this net bag back last time?"
Mark recalled: "This net bag? Oh, I remember, last time the Caterpillar and I were injured, it was inconvenient to carry this net bag, so I left it in the forest. In fact, if you really care about it, you can wake me and the Caterpillar and ask about it when you leave the medicine. I didn't lose it."
Old Man Qian glanced suspiciously at Mark and the green caterpillar leaning against Mark's trouser leg. Suddenly he thought of something and slapped his forehead with his palm, revealing an expression of disappointment.
"I almost forgot about the important matter. Do you know that you missed an opportunity that could change your life? Why haven't you come back these days?"
Mark asked in confusion: "A life-changing opportunity? Has anything happened in the past few days?"
"Ss ...
Not only Mark, the caterpillar was curious.
Old Man Qian glanced at Mark and said, "Just this afternoon, people from the Elf Alliance of Luoye Province came, and Lin Tong, who had awakened his superpowers, was taken away. I told Dr. Wu about the wisdom you gained during the awakening ceremony, and he said he could help you test it. If it's suitable, he can also let you and Lin Tong join the ability training program of the Xia Kingdom. As a result, Dr. Wu waited for you for more than three hours this afternoon..."
As Old Man Qian spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
In fact, Dr. Wu waited for three hours in the afternoon largely because of him.
