1780 Absorb
After putting on the lab coat, Teacher Cheng brought the two of them into the built-in Botanic Garden.
As soon as he entered the campus, Fang Heng immediately sensed the surging power of nature and could not help but raise his eyebrows.
The natural energy of the campus was extremely abundant.
This was very abnormal.
It should be some kind of plant that could release a large amount of natural energy.
The Federation was still rich.
Fang Heng looked around and sighed in his heart.
Cultivating such plants was time-consuming and resource-consuming. Ordinary companies could not afford to spend money on maintenance.
“Fang Heng, this is your first time here, right? Let me introduce you. This is an indoor plant cultivation campus fully funded by the Federation.”
Teacher Cheng led Fang Heng forward and introduced, “In addition to the plants cultivated by our project team, there are also a large number of plants cultivated by other related project teams. There are many high-level plants obtained from the game world. We try not to touch other people’s things.”
Fang Heng nodded and replied, “Yes, I understand.”
Teacher Cheng brought Fang Heng and Qiao Wei to the back of the park.
A few plants were growing alone in a space.
Teacher Cheng brought the two of them two meters away from the plants and pointed at a few plants on the empty ground.
“The Shadow Fog Begonia hasn’t bloomed yet. After it blooms, its color changes like a shadow fog, hence its name.”
“Flowers can emit a unique fragrance after they bloom. The fragrance will cause people to fall into a hallucinatory state. Shortly, our project team will need the flowering Shadow Fog Begonia for experiments. However, Fang Heng, you have to be careful when cultivating it. Be careful not to be affected by the fragrance of the flowers.”
This was the first time Fang Heng had heard of such a strange flower. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll be careful.”
“Alright, your main job for this period is to take care of these few Shadow Fog Begonias.”
Teacher Cheng handed a thick training log to Fang Heng and said, “There are relevant training instructions in the log. Your natural science level is above mine, so you should know more about training than me. Remember to fill in the training log after each training.”
“You’re a professional researcher, so I won’t say anything more. Also, Fang Heng, your student card has been bound with permission. You can enter and exit here in the future.”
“Alright.”
“Tsk, woman…”
Fang Heng whispered to himself as he watched the two of them leave. He turned his head to observe the plants on the ground.
Shadow Fog Begonia.
Fang Heng stretched out his hand.
The surrounding natural power quickly gathered in his hand and poured into the few Shadow Fog Begonias in front of him.
After pouring in a small portion of the natural energy, the Shadow Fog Begonias quickly stopped absorbing.
Fang Heng opened the cultivation log.
The cultivation log stated that there was a limit to the amount of natural energy that the Shadow Fog Begonia could absorb every week.
The Federation had tried many methods but failed to break through this limitation.
Fang Heng took a few steps forward and tried to observe.
What caused the absorption restriction?
Forget it.
Fang Heng thought for a moment and then retreated.
He had no interest in helping the Federation improve plant breeding.
Since the mission had been completed, there was no need to meddle. It was better to maintain the progress of coming twice a week.
If the modification was successful, there would be more trouble.
However…
Fang Heng looked around and pondered.
The Botanic Garden was filled with natural energy.
The energy density was close to saturation.
Wasn’t it a little too wasteful?
In the game, he had never encountered such a place where natural energy gathered.
Coincidentally, the skill advancement book he had obtained previously had yet to increase his level of natural science.
After advancing to intermediate natural science, players could also directly absorb the power of nature to increase their natural science experience points.
Of course, it couldn’t be absorbed directly. It needed to go through some simple conversion.
As he thought about it, Fang Heng plucked a branch from the side and used it to carve a small alchemy magic array on the mud. Then, he sat in the middle of the magic array.
Swoosh…
He poured his mental power into it, and a faint light immediately appeared on the alchemy array.
The natural force quickly gathered and transformed into a force that was easier to absorb through the alchemy magic array. It was quickly absorbed by Fang Heng.
An extremely faint game prompt appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player has absorbed special natural power through alchemy, occultism, and natural science. The player’s natural science experience points +12,891.]
Very good.
He had succeeded!
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately increased the speed of his circulation!
If any players were proficient in the study of natural science in the campus, they would have been able to sense that a large amount of natural energy had formed a vortex and was rapidly surging toward Fang Heng, who was sitting cross-legged!
At the same time, in the monitoring room not far away, Teacher Cheng and Qiao Wei were watching Fang Heng’s every move through the surveillance screen.
Not only were there Shadow Fog Begonia in the Botanic Garden but there were also many high-level plants needed for the Federation’s scientific research projects.
Among them, there were some special types of rare plants.
For example, the Dragon Cry Grass.
The federal investigation team believed that demi-humans would be interested in it.
Inviting Fang Heng to the campus this time was the second test.
They deliberately gave Fang Heng this opportunity.
If Fang Heng was related to the demi-human incident, then he would take action!
This was a trap that Qiao Wei had deliberately left for Fang Heng.
However, they were disappointed again.
From the beginning to the end, everyone stared at Fang Heng’s every move on the screen.
They saw Fang Heng draw a circle on the ground and then sit down cross-legged as if he was sensing something.
Everyone looked at the motionless Fang Heng on the monitor screen, and the entire monitoring hall fell into a moment of silence.
Teacher Cheng couldn’t help but ask, “What is he doing?”
In the monitoring hall, a high-ranking player from the Federation stared at Fang Heng’s every move on the screen and said with uncertainty, “If I’m not mistaken, he might be absorbing natural energy.”
“Cultivation?”
Qiao Wei turned to look at the player behind her in surprise.
The latter nodded.
Qiao Wei stared at Fang Heng on the screen.
It seemed to be the case.
What was the meaning of this? Was he treating the Botanic Garden as a training ground?
Everyone looked at Fang Heng’s actions on the screen and suddenly felt like they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
…
Fang Heng knew that there were surveillance cameras in the room, but he did not know that so many people were watching his every move.
In just half an hour, he had absorbed most of the natural energy in the Federation’s Botanic Garden.
It was almost time.
Fang Heng opened his eyes.
