Zhao Hai punched the ground and said in a deep voice, ” “Why is it like this? Did all our previous efforts go to waste?”
Green patted Zhao Hai’s shoulder and said, &Quot; we won’t, young master. Don’t worry. We’ll find a way to solve this. &Quot;
Zhao Hai’s expression was still ugly. He touched the dirt on the ground and said, ” &Quot; no, you don’t know. This is such a large piece of land, but it can’t be cultivated. I had already planned to improve the land here and slowly turn it into a Granary of the continent. Unfortunately, it seems that this plan can’t be carried out. &Quot;
Zhao Hai clapped his hands and stood up with a depressed look on his face. The blow this time was really too big for him. It was impossible for him to complete the transformation of such a large piece of land in a short time. If the magical beasts appeared again before he completed the transformation, all his efforts would be in vain. Even if he completed the transformation, the appearance of the magical beasts would be equivalent to his efforts being in vain.
Green and the others did not know how to comfort Zhao Hai. They knew how Zhao Hai was feeling. No one would feel good in such a situation.
Zhao Hai took another look at the black soil wasteland and sighed. He turned around and walked up the mountain. After taking two steps, he stopped and muttered, ” “No, this is very wrong.”
Merlin and green, who had just turned around with Zhao Hai, glanced at him. Puzzled, green asked, ” “Young master, what’s wrong?”
“Grandpa Green, what do you think is up there?” Zhao Hai pointed to the mountain.
Grimm glanced at the mountain and frowned. &Quot; “No, only some weeds. Weeds? That’s right, why would there be weeds on this mountain? If the black soil of the black soil wasteland was like this because of the toxins in the magical beasts ‘bodies, then why wasn’t the soil on the mountain affected? This isn’t right.”
At this time, Merlin also reacted. She also looked at the weeds on the mountain that had been stepped on. These weeds were really tough. Although they had been stepped on by the magic beasts, after a few days of recovery, they were still green. They were really tenacious.
When those magical beasts retreated, it was different from when they came. When they came, they were like a large group, swarming forward. But when they retreated, they were scattered, so the damage to the grass on the mountain was not serious. Now, the grass on the mountain had recovered a lot.
It was these rejuvenated weeds that made Zhao Hai realize that something was wrong. If the blackdirt wastelands had been poisoned by the demonic beasts ‘poison, it was impossible for the mountain to be fine. After all, the demonic beasts had come from the mountain.
Zhao Hai turned around and looked at the black soil. He mumbled, ” “No, it’s definitely not because of the poison on their bodies. What could it be? What could it be?”
Grimm and Merlin also turned to look at the black soil ground. They did not know what was going on. At first, Merlin thought that his inference was correct, but when she saw the weeds on the mountain, she knew that her inference was wrong.
Zhao Hai kept walking around in circles. He could not figure out why the place had become like this. Slowly, he walked to the side of the moat. He stopped and stared at the pale green water in a daze.
Merlin and gerlyn saw that Zhao Hai was standing still by the moat and approached him nervously. They were really afraid that something would happen to Zhao Hai.
Suddenly, Zhao Hai clapped his hands and said, ” “I’ve thought of it, I’ve thought of it.”
“Young master, what did you think of?”
Zhao Hai pointed at the river and said, ” this River has always been flowing, but it’s still light green. This means that there were demonic beasts in the mountain lake. But why did they go there? ” There’s nothing to eat there, so I think they must have some purpose for going into the lake. The most likely reason is to take a bath.”
“A bath?” Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, both green and Merlin gave him a strange look. They then looked at each other, thinking that Zhao Hai had gone crazy.
“Young master, take a rest,” Merlin said hurriedly.
Zhao Hai turned to look at Merlin and asked,”what’s wrong, grandma Merlin?” You don’t believe what I said?”
Merlin laughed bitterly. &Quot; young master, those magic beasts came from the rotten corpse swamp. The swamp doesn’t lack water. Why would they come here to bathe? ”
Zhao Hai snapped his fingers and said, ” that’s the problem. Although there’s no lack of water in the corpse swamp, the water is poisonous. Just like you said before, even the air is poisonous. How can the water not be poisonous? ” That’s why it’s as if they haven’t washed themselves. I think they must be looking for clean water to bathe in.”
Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, green and Merlin were stunned. They had never thought of it this way before. However, after hearing Zhao Hai’s words, it seemed to be true.
Zhao Hai looked at the two of them and continued, ” “Also, have you thought about it? It was very likely that the black soil land had become like this because of those magical beasts. Those magical beasts had been living in the rotten corpse swamp for many years. The food, water, and air they ate were all poisonous. Even if they were poisonous magical beasts, they might not be able to stand it. Therefore, it was very likely that they had come to the black soil wasteland to expel the excess poison from their bodies. This poison might even be the most poisonous part. That’s why the blackdirt wastelands slowly became like this.”
The more Zhao Hai spoke, the more he felt that it made sense. Green and Merlin were the same. The more they listened, the more they felt that it made sense. What Zhao Hai said really made sense.
However, Grimm frowned and said,”so the magical beasts are using this place as a place to detoxify?” If that’s the case, the frequency of them coming out of the corpse swamp must be very high, and we’ll be in big trouble.”
Hearing Green’s words, the excitement on Zhao Hai’s face disappeared. He just remembered that he had just found a truth that might be the truth, but he had not found a solution yet.
Zhao Hai furrowed his brows and turned a few rounds on the ground. Seeing Zhao Hai’s expression, Merlin could not help but glare at green. He turned to Zhao Hai and said, &Quot; young master, let’s not think too much about it. Let’s get rid of the poison in the water first. Otherwise, we won’t even be able to use water. We’ll have to use the water in the interspace. &Quot;
Zhao Hai returned to his senses and glanced at the black soil wasteland. He took a deep breath and said, ” &Quot; let’s go. Let’s get over this first. Since it has already happened, there must be a way to solve it. Let’s think about it slowly. &Quot;
After saying that, he turned around and walked up the mountain. Grimm and Merlin also glanced at the black soil wasteland, sighed, and followed Zhao Hai up the mountain. They were really afraid that there were other magical beasts in the mountains and lakes. If that happened, Zhao Hai would be in danger.
The three of them arrived at the entrance of the mine. Before Zhao Hai could enter, green had already entered the mine. However, Merlin pulled Zhao Hai back and said,”Young master, let’s wait and let Grimm take a look.”
Zhao Hai stopped helplessly. After a while, Green’s voice came from inside.”Young master, Merlin, come in. There are no more magic beasts here.”
Only then did Zhao Hai and Merlin enter the mine. When they arrived at the lakeside, green was already standing there, staring at the lake in a daze. Merlin immediately used an illumination spell, and the situation of the lake was completely presented in front of the three of them.
The green in the lake was much deeper than the green in the moat. It looked dark green, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Zhao Hai sighed. &Quot; it’s such a nice Lake. Those guys actually used it as bathwater. How hateful. &Quot; While speaking, she opened her space and brought the water into the lake.
But what Zhao Hai didn’t expect was that the moment the water entered the lake, it was like a chemical reaction. Starting from the point of entry, the green in the lake disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, it was out of Zhao Hai’s vision.
Zhao Hai and the others were all stunned. Although they knew that the space water could cure the poison in the lake, it was too fast. The water hadn’t flowed out of the space yet, so how could he react so fast?
After a while, Zhao Hai said with uncertainty, ” “I wonder if the poison in the water is still there? Grandma Merlin, you should take a look.” Merlin was a Water-type great mage, so she was the most suitable person to do this.
Merlin nodded and extended his hand into the lake. Then, he muttered a few incantations in a low voice. A ball of blue light was emitted from her hand, and then disappeared into the lake like a sky full of broken stars.
After a while, the blue light spots that had disappeared gathered in Merlin’s hand again and slowly disappeared. Merlin opened his eyes and said with a shocked expression, ” &Quot; it’s unbelievable. All the poison has disappeared. Not a single drop is left. &Quot;
“Let’s go back to the castle and take a look,” Zhao Hai said. The three of them quickly walked out of the mine. As soon as they came out of the mine, they saw a cloud of black smoke rising from the castle. It seemed that meg and the others had already packed up the castle.
As soon as they arrived outside the castle, they saw meg and the others throwing some garbage into the fire. Zhao Hai and the others quickly walked to the moat. As expected, the water had become clear, and the green color had completely disappeared.
However, Zhao Hai was still worried. He asked Merlin to make another water ball. He kept it in the subspace to see if there was any poison. From the notification from the subspace, the water was completely free of poison. It even contained some anti-poison factors, which was an unexpected gain.
When meg and the others were almost done, Merlin used water magic to clean the castle thoroughly. After all this was done, the castle could finally be inhabited again.
