Beast Control: Starting from raising silkworms and becoming the King of Insects

After getting up the next day, Russell, who was finally a little more relaxed, came to the fresh-keeping cold storage.

Although the Imperial Insect House is now equipped with insurance refrigeration equipment worth hundreds of thousands of credits each, the energy contained in the fruits of the Sun Tree will still slowly pass away. If the storage time exceeds a week, the effect will be reduced by at least 10%.

The golden fruit of the Sun Tree is somewhat like a mango, but its shape is more rounded. When you hold it in your hand, you can feel the gentle and thick energy.

As one of the most compatible high-end cultivation materials, the fruits of the Sun Tree can be eaten raw directly, but the effect will be better if mixed with other materials.

"It's a pity that neither Ayou nor Daodao Mantis has light attributes, and they are not planning to develop in the direction of light attributes. After eating the fruits of the Sun Tree, they should only be able to increase a wave of basic attribute energy."

Waiting for the sun tree fruit to slowly return to normal temperature, while preparing some auxiliary materials, Russell said with a little pity.

The fruits of the sun tree are full of energy, and even fifth-level pets can get good benefits from eating them. Ayou and Daodao Mantis are still in the middle of third-level, and they will definitely gain a lot of growth after eating them.

However, although the fruits of the Sun Tree are mild, they do not have many special attributes and have little effect on ability development.

For pet beasts such as Ayou and Daodao Mantis, which do not have light attributes themselves, after digestion, these gentle energies will be converted into their main attribute, which is the insect attribute.

As a result, the entire Sun Tree fruit has almost no other function except increasing growth progress.

Moreover, this growth progress only refers to insect-type energy. After all, the fruit of the Sun Tree, which favors light attributes, cannot be converted into ghost-type or steel-type energy.

According to the training route planned by Russell for the two main battle beasts, although the insect attribute is the cornerstone, various combination abilities still have to rely on the blessing of secondary attributes. If the proportion of insect attributes is too high, some may have to be removed...

This is somewhat wasteful. Even if he is now rich, Russell is still reluctant to use a batch of rare cultivation materials in such an inefficient manner.

"Is there any special formula for sun tree fruits?"

Thinking that eating it directly would be a waste, Russell took out his phone and searched online.

There are the most cultivation formulas using mild materials. As a high-quality version of the warm orange fruit, the sun tree fruit can appear in almost any formula.

However, the functions of the sun tree fruits in these formulas are basically to enhance the overall energy intensity of the cultivation materials, blend conflicting attributes, etc. Russell only found one formula that mainly used sun tree fruits.

Sun Tree Hot Spring Juice is made by squeezing the juice from the Sun Tree and then blending it with the petals of the Hot Spring Flower. During this process, the light attribute energy of the Sun Tree and the water and fire attributes of the Hot Spring Flower will all evaporate, eventually turning into a very Thick, attributeless material.

Seeing this formula, he suddenly had an idea.

As a formula for cultivating the main battle pets, this is basically mediocre in terms of cost performance, and the sun tree fruits and hot spring flowers are not cheap, so no one has ever tried to use hot spring juice to feed mass-bred pets.

The biggest problem with low-level pet beasts is that their upper limit is too low. The so-called wild boars cannot eat fine chaff. Even if they are fed high-end breeding materials, the absorption and utilization rate of low-level pet beasts will always be a problem.

However, with the help of the "Cocoon of Evolution" talent, the growth limit of these insect-type beasts raised by Russell is higher than that of ordinary animals of the same race. Even if this level is limited, it is still higher.

At the same time, the resource he lacks most now, the "source of evolution" obtained through the transformation of pet beasts, is also directly linked to the growth status of the insect-type pet beasts in the breeding farm.

If you squeeze the juice from these three fruits, dilute it many times and feed it to other pet beasts in the breeding ground...will it speed up their evolution and generate more evolution source points?

After this idea arose, Russell seriously thought about its feasibility.

First of all, it is obviously impossible to use mid-to-high-level breeding materials on a large scale to feed all the pet beasts in the breeding site.

Not only can the current income of the Royal Insect House not be able to support such a lavish feeding model, but the subtle bloodline improvement effect of the evolutionary halo cannot keep up with the nourishment speed of high-grade materials.

To significantly increase the absorption rate, Russell must go into battle himself and let the pet beasts that have eaten the mid-to-high-level cultivation materials have more contact with the energy threads of the "Cocoon of Evolution".

Secondly, the selected pet should have strong attribute tolerance and be in the transformation stage. The energy absorption efficiency of the pet beast in the transformation stage is several times higher than that in the normal state. Many of them have been proven to be relatively stable evolution methods. They all invest a lot of resources in pet beasts during the transformation period.

Moreover, there is a difference between the metamorphosis stage and the metamorphosis stage. Compared with those animal pets that only grow faster and start to develop sharp horns and claws during the metamorphosis period, the insect-type pets that need to molt and metamorphose will naturally metamorphose more completely. The increase in energy absorption rate during the transformation period is also greater.

Pet beasts that are worms in their juvenile stages undergo complete metamorphosis, and this contrast is even more obvious.

After thinking about it for a while, Russell finally turned his attention to the batch of black-ringed silkworms that had reached an average growth rate of over 90% and were about to evolve into cocoons.

Their evolutionary energy gap is very low. As long as they are fed a little with Sun Tree hot spring juice, they may start to turn into cocoons that day.

As the first group of tribesmen to be led by Ayou, if these black-ringed silkworms can transform and evolve to a level far beyond those of the same tribe, Ayou should also be able to accumulate a lot of sources of evolution.

"Try it first, you won't lose much."

After making a careful decision, Russell put two of the sun tree fruits back into the freezer, leaving only one to continue defrosting.

Anyway, there are three rewards this time. Let’s take out one and try it out first. If the effect is not good, let Ayou and Daodao Mantis divide the other two equally.

While waiting for the sun fruit tree to return to normal temperature and then squeeze the juice, Russell asked Liang Kun to go to the cultivation material trading center and personally select a small bag of hot spring flower petals.

Because it contains two conflicting attributes, water and fire, and is a plant itself, the quality of this sparsely produced cultivation material is extremely uneven. If you buy a defective product with a poorly balanced attribute, it will not be able to strengthen the sun. The density of the tree's fruit energy can also turn a mild solution into a highly irritating one.

Pet beasts in the metamorphosis stage are most afraid of contact with irritating breeding materials, let alone silkworm pet beasts whose bodies are completely energized when they transform into cocoons.

A little quality problem may directly lead to their death.

Fortunately, Liang Kun is professional in selecting materials, and plant-based materials are his area of ​​expertise. After more than an hour, Liang Kun brought back a pack of water and fire attributes for Russell, which was close to 50:50. High quality hot spring flower petals.

Compared with the selection of materials, the process of making Sun Tree Hot Spring Juice is surprisingly simple.

You only need to squeeze the sun tree fruit into juice, then mix these two valuable cultivation materials together, and then heat it slightly to guide the two energies in the hot spring flower to start reacting and evaporating each other, and by the way, the sun tree fruit will be The light energy contained in it evaporates together, and after about half an hour, you will get a pot of thick and fragrant hot spring juice.

This kind of cultivation material made from pure plants with almost no other things added is easy to absorb, but it is also easy to deteriorate or fail when exposed to the air. After the boiling juice cooled down slightly, Russell quickly poured it into the already prepared Crushed mulberry leaves.

After thorough stirring and adding some water to dilute it, almost every mulberry leaf was covered with a layer of hot spring juice. The classification was enough to feed sixty black-ringed silkworms.

Relying on biological instinct, the black-ringed silkworm immediately became interested in the very different mulberry leaf meal after smelling the fragrance, and finished the mulberry leaves in less than one-third of the usual time.

After the meal, Russell moved them to the wooden shelf specially used for making cocoons, and then quietly observed the changes in these black-ringed silkworms, the veteran of the Insect House.
