Chapter 33 Building a Warm Room
Chapter 33 Building a Warm Room
Lord Green Fruit arrived at the location of the Yew Seedling and, following Lord Purple Plum's instructions, built a soil and stone insulated chamber for the Yew.
Lord Green Fruit asked, "Purple Plum, the soil and stone abilities can be used to create insulated rooms, but what about the light transmission?"
Plants need photosynthesis to grow. Without light, even with water, soil, and the right temperature, they cannot grow.
Are you planning to follow their instructions and make ventilation openings out of cobwebs, opening them during the day and closing them at night?
Lord Zili: "No need for that. The transparent, sparse-winged wax cicada tribe in the central part of Banana Island possesses earth-type talent abilities."
They can bind sand together on the beach and remove impurities to form transparent glass. I just need to buy a batch of glass from them.
"Then I'll leave some openings in the insulated compartment so you can install the glass later."
"That's what I think too."
Lord Purple Plum flew to the Transparent Broadwing Lanternfly tribe to purchase glass, while Lord Green Fruit continued to help Yew make greenhouses.
They built a semi-circular greenhouse, 50 meters high, for each of the male mulberry, female mulberry, and red cypress varieties.
The walls of the greenhouse are very thick, about half a meter high, gradually narrowing from bottom to top to only 20 centimeters thick at the very top. In addition, there are more than a dozen windows around the greenhouse that can be fitted with glass, which is enough to ensure that the sun can shine into the greenhouse from all angles.
A 50-meter-high greenhouse is enough for these three life-species to grow to an advanced stage. Once they reach the advanced stage, their evolution speed will be slower, and the life-species will be able to grow at a slower pace.
Standing atop Lord Greenfruit's head, Zishan asked with some concern, "Lord Greenfruit, won't the soil on top of this heavy insulated greenhouse collapse and crush my life-giving seed while it's being built?"
Lord Qingguo explained, "No, this is a wall I created using my earth-elemental talent. Even if a mountain lord-level rhinoceros beetle warrior attacks it, it can withstand the attack for a while. There's no need to worry about it collapsing for no reason."
"Oh." Zishan still looked somewhat worried.
Seeing that it was still a little worried, Lord Qingguo said affectionately, "Since you are worried, then I will make a few earth and stone pillars in the insulated room, so that even if it collapses, it will not crush your life seed."
As it spoke, it created several pillars inside the insulated room to support the earthen and stone walls above. To make it easier for everyone to come and go, it also built a portal on the insulated room that even the King of Armor could enter and exit through, and made a door at the entrance using earthen and stone abilities.
Then it built a greenhouse for the remaining species of yew. Compared to the three tree species, the remaining species are vine species, which do not need to be as tall, but the area needs to be much larger.
Zizhu, who was helping out, was speechless. Wouldn't these lords spoil the little warrior?
According to the Purple Plum Lord's plan, it will build a greenhouse for each of the remaining three seedlings, with a height of 20 meters and a total area of 1 square meters.
Such a large greenhouse needs support pillars. One pillar is made for every 100 square meters to support the greenhouse. Similarly, many openings are made at the top to allow sunlight to shine in directly.
Fortunately, apart from the green heart sunflower, the multi-seeded green grapes and sweet kiwifruit are both vines, and the supports made from these are just right for them to climb on. Anyway, the initial plan is working quite well.
The Green Fruit Lords and their companions worked for more than half a month to build insulated greenhouses to cover the life-sustaining seedlings of the tribe's young warriors.
Lord Zili also purchased a batch of glass and installed it on the insulated room.
It was already mid-October, and the weather outside had turned cold.
Although the temperature drop was not very significant on this warm and tropical island, and there was no snow, the weather outside was no longer suitable for the growth of ordinary insects, and most insects had begun to die or hibernate.
The yews hid inside the insulated room and found that the temperature inside was much higher than outside and was consistently maintained at a temperature suitable for their activities.
This discovery greatly surprised them, and they immediately moved their claws to move the simple nest chamber that was originally built near the host species directly into the insulated chamber so that they could comfortably spend the entire cold winter.
The young warriors are energetic even in winter, which is a good thing for the whole tribe, but it also gives them a headache, as the young warriors like to fight all the time.
Fighting is normal in the tribe, but they are afraid that the young warriors will be injured if they fight in the insulated room.
To this end, they rushed to build a large, 10,000-square-meter, semi-buried greenhouse specifically for the young soldiers to play in.
As the weather outside gradually gets colder, the effects of the greenhouse become apparent, and the plants inside thrive, even sprouting new leaves in winter.
This growth also greatly excited the Purple Plum Lords. Ordinary varieties are fine, growth is not important, even if it is a little slow.
If the divinely bestowed seedlings of yew are growing better, then the time when they can produce divinely bestowed primal force food will be earlier.
For these visible reasons, Lord Purple Plum decided to increase his investment in them.
The so-called increased investment does not mean feeding the yews more Force food. They are already eating the best God-given Force food that the Twin-Forked Rhinoceros Beetle tribe can exchange for. Eating more would only increase the quantity.
They are young warriors now, and it's not suitable for them to eat too much at each stage of their life, otherwise it will hinder their evolution.
Lord Zili's plan to increase investment refers to increasing investment in the life-sustaining species of yew.
In addition to absorbing nutrients from sunlight and soil and drawing upon the Force to evolve, Destiny Seeds can also use other items with the Force to assist their growth.
The original liquid, primal force soil fertilizer, primal force gems, and the flashlight created by extraterrestrial civilization that Lord Zili purchased at the trading square can all accelerate the growth speed of the life seed to a certain extent.
In addition to this, insectoid warriors with wood-type talents will also awaken various abilities that can assist plant growth.
It is said that the Flame Spider Merchant has many methods that are not easily revealed to the insects to accelerate the growth of their offspring. For example, the method of keeping the greenhouse taught by the Lord of Zehui Mountain is very effective, but they do not easily pass on the method.
But the methods they know now are already sufficient to allow the divinely ordained seeds to grow quite effectively.
Lord Zili allocated half of the Force fertilizer, essence, and Force gems he had purchased to the Zishan seedlings.
The six yew trees, two mulberry trees, and one red cypress tree have all grown for more than a year and are now quite large, with the trees reaching a height of nearly 10 meters.
However, the sunflower, grape, and kiwi seedlings of the yew were planted this year, and the plants are still very young and not growing well. Lord Purple Plum mainly wants to accelerate the growth of these seedlings.
