Working Prophet

It may seem incredible to light cotton in a clay pot without any open flame, but no divine power is actually used.

In physics this phenomenon is often called adiabatic compression.

According to the first law of thermodynamics, mechanical energy and thermal energy can be converted into each other.

What Clara did was actually a simple piston device. Through this device, she converted the work of pressing down the iron rod into internal energy, causing the temperature in the jar to rise, reaching the ignition point of the cotton, thus igniting the cotton.

The most widespread application of this phenomenon is in diesel engines.

But Clara discovered this when Li Yu was inflating the basketball. She noticed that the outer wall of the inflator felt warm to the touch, quite warm.

Li Yu happened to have nothing to do at the time, so he recreated this classic physics experiment with her.

The little maid at that time had no idea that one day she would need to rely on this experiment to save her life.

But no matter what, she at least passed the first level.

It wasn't until she returned to the house that Clara realized that her back was soaked, and then she just collapsed on the bed, unable to even lift her arms.

The adiabatic compression experiment sounds simple, but in fact it is not that easy to operate, and the success rate is not high.

Especially if the pressing speed is not fast enough or the sealing is not good enough, it is easy to fail.

In Li Yu's previous experiments, he failed twice before succeeding the third time. Clara herself didn't expect that she could do it the first time.

When Herodotus looked into the clay pot, the little maid was so nervous that she couldn't breathe, for fear that the cotton inside was still safe.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Saturday still favored her.

The little maid secretly vowed in her heart that if she could return to the green field, she must study hard. After all, studying can save lives.

The next evening, Herodotus found Clara again.

Without saying any nonsense, he directly asked the maid to help him contact Pisiya.

This time Herodotus's question was a little weird. He asked the goddess "Is it time?"

Clara pushed down the iron rod again, and just like the first time, she also used all her strength, but this time she failed for some reason, and the cotton in the jar was safe.

Herodotus' eyes flickered, and the little maid beside him didn't dare to say anything.

But perhaps because what happened last night proved that Clara could indeed help contact Pisiya, Herodotus didn't say anything.

Only when the goddess answered his question, and then on the third day, Herodotus continued to ask, "Saturday gave Merlin divine power, allowing him to perform various miracles. In order to defeat Merlin and his Shuangxiujiao, you also Can you give me part of your divine power?"

Clara continued to poke, and this time she was lucky. The cotton in the clay pot was ignited again, but only half of it was burned due to insufficient oxygen, and the other half remained.

Herodotus frowned again when he saw this.

Ruby on the side said, "The goddess may mean that she will give you divine power, but you need to accept the test first."

"Talk too much." Herodotus said calmly.

Having said that, it seems that Herodotus also recognized Ruby's words, and his brows stretched a lot, and he planned to ask the goddess when she would give him a test tomorrow.

But in the middle of the night, Herodotus received an urgent message from the Guards Corps.

The letter said that about seven or eight noble families publicly declared their support for High Priest Martina and sent troops to join her cathars. High Priest Martina had gathered 5,000 people in advance. The city was launched.

People in the scaled city were now in panic. Sir Eddard was so anxious that he announced that if Herodotus did not come back, he would surrender directly to the city.

In addition, the Figuerola family finally took action.

The Marquis of Cullen personally came forward, intending to meet Herodotus and High Priest Martina in Yanxue City to see if he could mediate the conflict and prevent the nobles in the western region from being involved in this religious war.

The envoy has now arrived at Duolin City.

Herodotus finally got in touch with Picia again these days. Even if it was only through the oracle, it was better than the previous state where he couldn't hear anything. He also regained his lost direction.

It is inevitable that he would be a little upset to be suddenly interrupted now, but Herodotus had to give the face of the Figuerola family, at least not now, so he knew that it was almost time to go back.

However, after receiving the letter, Herodotus still stayed in Iron Horn City for another day, just to ask Piscia one more question, which was also the most critical question.

This question scared the little maid so much that she almost dropped the iron rod in her hand to the ground.

"I have received the oracle you sent before, and I know that the time has not come, but I will not hand over Multiscale City easily. Our enemies must pay the price. Only in this way can you show your majesty."

In the mist, Herodotus's voice sounded like it was coming from a very far away place.

"Please allow me to use the magic potion found in the ancient forbidden book - Green Dream. It will bloom the most beautiful flowers in the bodies of thousands of enemies."

When Clara heard these words, she made up her mind on the spot. She must poke slowly this time and never let the cotton at the bottom of the clay pot burn.

Although she is not a believer of the Silver Moon Church, nor is she from the High Priest Martina's side, if Herodotus' plan succeeds, the Scaled City will probably shed a river of blood.

Moreover, these people did not die on the battlefield, but died from unknown poison. This is too tragic.

But the little maid did not expect that Herodotus would turn around in the end, "I also know that you have always been kind. If you object, just let the cotton at the bottom of the bottle burn."

It can be said that Clara tried her best this time, even her face turned red, and she pounded down hard.

As a result, the clay pot was smashed directly.

The little maid looked at the pottery pot with a hole on the ground. She was stunned for a moment, and then said hurriedly, "I'm sorry, my hand slipped just now. We can try it again with a new one."

"No need, the goddess has already given me the answer." Herodotus said as he kicked away the broken pottery pieces on the ground with his feet, picked up the ball of cotton underneath, and placed it in front of his eyes.

I saw that the ball of cotton was intact, just like when it was first put in.

Herodotus said happily, "It seems that the goddess is thinking like me. The church has been weak for thousands of years, and it is time to start to get tough and let the enemies feel the wrath of the goddess.

"Not just High Priest Martina and Prophet Merlin... I will defeat all opponents and spread the goddess's grace to every corner of the continent." Herodotus said confidently.
