The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 283: Natural adhesive glue

Views:

The species of the poisonous bee is unknown, and no one cares what kind of poisonous bee it is. The fighting spirit gushes out, and the stumps fly around. When the sun is about to set, the poisonous bees are almost dead.

Even the poisonous hive was split open, and the queen bee hidden inside was found and strangled to death.

Only a small number of poisonous bees flew away. According to the habits of bees, they would linger here for a few days, and they would not fly away completely until it was determined that the hive no longer existed.

"Mr. Marcus, remember to warn all the serfs that this area is not allowed."

"Understood, my lord."

At this time Russell suddenly shouted: "My lord, it's honey, there's honey in this hive!"

"Is there really honey?" Liszt lifted his mask and looked along the section of the honeycomb that Lasse broke open, and he saw the golden honey, exuding a faintly seductive sweetness.

He opened it a little deeper with his hands, and found that there were white larvae in many hives.

This is bee pupa.

About the thickness of an index finger, the length of a thumb, and a plump head.

Seeing these white bee pupae, Liszt almost drooled. He had eaten fried bee pupae, which was delicious, crispy and delicious. Moreover, bee chrysalis contains high protein, low fat, multiple vitamins and trace elements, which is a very nourishing food. Now this poisonous beehive with a height of half a person can produce at least ten catties of bee pupae.

Some ate it!

"Lace, Griffin, lift up the bee pupae and carry them back! The honey and bee pupae inside are good things, I want them."

"Yes, my lord!"

As the two talked, they were about to move the hive, but they couldn't lift the hive at all, and their faces turned red.

"Didn't you eat?" Marcus asked speechlessly.

According to the strength of the Earth Knight, although it cannot be said to be infinite, it is at least several times that of an ordinary adult. It shouldn't take so much effort to carry a poisonous beehive weighing less than five hundred catties.

Lasse's face turned even redder upon hearing this.

He used all his milking energy, and his battle qi was running wildly, and only then did he shake the poisonous hive.

Griffin, who was moving with him, suddenly found a problem: "Captain Marcus, it seems that the hive and the trunk here are stuck together by something, no wonder we can't move it."

"Stuck?" Liszt also walked over to check the part where the poisonous honeycomb was connected to the tree trunk, and found that, as Griffin said, there was some white substance that stuck the two together so tightly that they could not be pulled. , "It should be the sap secreted from the tree, so sticky?"

Looking up along the white substance, it happened to be the break of the branch that was cut off by Lacey before, leaving a lot of juice, which flowed all the way here, and then dried and solidified.

Seems to be stickier than 502 glue.

"Glue... solidification..." Liszt felt that this kind of thing is very unusual, and if it is used, it should have a very wide range of uses.

At this time, Marcus had already drawn out the fine steel long sword, aimed at the bonded part, and slashed with the sword.

when!

when!

when!

Three swords in a row, the white matter only cracked a small hole, and there was no sign of separation at all.

"Slash a few more swords, Mr. Marcus, use grudge." Liszt signaled Marcus not to stop, and continued to slash to test the strength of the juice bond.

Marcus did.

Swelling his fighting spirit, the cyan light attached to the long sword, aimed at the white substance, and slammed the sword, click! This sword finally split the white substance, and the poisonous honeycomb was completely separated from the tree trunk: "What is so hard, I used all my strength to cut it off."

"The sap from the big tree, Mr. Marcus, Russell, and Griffin, we may have found something better." Liszt pointed to the big tree in front of him with a smile on his face.

The big tree is a very common miscellaneous tree. Liszt had studied this kind of tree when he landed on Heima Island for the second time to look for the keel. The trunk is very straight, the branches are high, not lush, there are no flowers and fruits, and the growth is not high. When the New Year came, the leaves were slightly yellow, and now the leaves are completely yellow.

At the beginning, it was concluded that this is a deciduous tree, which is ordinary and can probably be used as timber.

He also plans to cut down all the miscellaneous trees near the pasture when there are enough people to expand the cultivation area of pasture. Now it seems that, fortunately, it was not cut down, and the trees that can flow out such a powerful glue are clearly a treasure bestowed by nature.

The sun is setting.

Liszt was not in a hurry to go back. Anyway, there were no monsters on the island, so there was no danger: "Griffin, aim your sword at the tree trunk."

"Yes, my lord!"

A sword went down, and the bark split open.

About a minute later, white juice began to ooze from the split part. Liszt took a little sap with a wooden stick, and then stuck it to the tree trunk, shaking it from time to time to judge the speed of the sap sticking. After about five minutes of exposure to air, the juices start to coagulate.

When set, it is virtually unbreakable.

"The effect is very strong, do you see its effect?" He asked triumphantly, with the intention of showing off - this tree sap is undoubtedly a natural adhesive, and judging from its firmness after solidification, it is absolutely It is comparable to the existence of rubber, which is equal to the mixed product of rubber and 502 rubber.

There is no doubt about the importance of rubber, and the usefulness of 502 rubber is also huge.

The combination of the two advantages is undoubtedly the more valuable natural glue.

However, the three of Marcus didn't realize this quickly, so they seemed a little confused.

Griffin even replied solemnly: "Maybe we can glue two things together? It seems a little troublesome, my lord. When serfs cut down trees, they might stick their axes to the trunk."

"Cut down a tree?"

"Well, my lord, don't you plan to cut down the trees on the island to expand the range of the grassland?"

"That was the previous plan, but it has been changed now. The grassland needs it, and this kind of tree needs it even more!" Liszt said without doubt, "You may not understand what I just said, the sap of this kind of tree is a good thing, very good something that, in my opinion, is worth more than gold."

"Worth more than gold?"

"The juice can be directly used as glue to bond objects. For example, a cooper hoops a barrel. With glue, as long as two wooden boards are lightly glued together, it will be a perfect bond, which will not loosen or leak. Used for The hoop seems wasteful, it might be suitable for bonding weapons."

Liszt calmed down his excitement and continued: "Of course, we must first determine its properties, how durable it is, whether it is fire-resistant or water-resistant, how to collect and store it, etc..."

Speaking of which.

He suddenly remembered that the smog mission had been completed, and his elf worms should also arrive. Let the three of Marcus study the properties of natural glue, and he silently called out the smoke task.

However, it was found that the content of the task had not changed, and the task of clearing the poisonous hive had not yet been completed.

"It seems that we need to wait until all the poisonous bees fly away and the danger is completely eliminated before we can complete the task, but this tree and this task..." Looking at the trunk and thinking about the task, he felt that the two seemed to be related: "Could it be that my Does the tenth elf worm have anything to do with this tree?"

He quickly cast his magical eyes and began to observe the big tree in front of him. When the eyes moved to the canopy at the top of the trunk, a magical light flashed in the field of vision.
