1494 The Weird Climbing Vines
The test lasted for a full ten minutes.
He had succeeded 94 times and failed 108 times. The success rate was about 50%.
Seeing that he could manage by hacking, Fang Heng gave a satisfied nod.
Very good, the second step of the test was a success.
Then came the third step.
Expand production capacity!
Fang Heng immediately left five zombies to circulate the natural energy to level up. He controlled the remaining zombie clones to scatter around the manor to search for natural energy and collect all the natural energy in the hall.
Fang Heng stood still in the room, and the game hints began to refresh slowly.
[Hint: Your zombie clone entered the second basement and is searching.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone entered the second floor.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone has discovered natural energy.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone is trying to move natural energy…]
[Hint: The player’s zombie clone used foundation natural science to stimulate the growth of unknown plants. The player has obtained foundation natural science experience points +2. The player’s natural science talent +0.00001.]
[Hint: The player’s zombie clone…]
[Hint: The player’s foundation natural science level has increased to Level 2.]
Thirty minutes later, the zombie clones filled the entire manor area. The 70 to 80 zombie clones were allocated natural energy, and they were fighting against the climbing vines on the wall to gain experience points.
There was still a huge shortage of natural energy. The zombie clones had not been fully converted into production power. A large number of zombie clones were idle and piled up in the manor.
It was far from the theoretical maximum efficiency of farming experience!
In addition, in a few hours, the zombie clones would complete their first self-reproduction, and the speed at which they gained experience points would be doubled!
In order to increase efficiency, he could only take a little risk to capture natural energy outside the manor and then transfer the energy back to the manor for storage.
The little natural energy in the manor garden was obviously not enough.
Fang Heng rubbed his palms.
He had to expand the area and go outside to search!
Fang Heng pushed open the door of the manor.
Under the moonlight, the zombie clones began to move. They followed Fang Heng and left through the manor’s hall. They started to farm the natural energy in the manor.
Grind all night!
In an ideal situation, as long as he could collect more natural energy, at this rate, it was likely that he would be able to break through the elementary level of natural science in half a night and advance to the intermediate level of natural science.
The omniscient eye could directly comprehend high-level spells and below. It was really convenient!
….
[Hint: Your foundation natural science has been upgraded to Level 10.]
[Hint: Your skill, the omniscient eye, has been activated. Your foundation natural science has successfully advanced to elementary natural science.]
Two hours later, Fang Heng opened his eyes again.
After advancing to elementary natural science, apart from being able to use some elementary natural science spells, each level would increase the perception attribute by 0.3 points.
Not bad.
However, the experience points required to level up an elementary skill increased by 100 times.
Due to the large number of zombie clones, they had been scattered in various rooms of the manor.
Earlier, Fang Heng had brought his zombie clones out of the manor and absorbed all the natural energy in the area.
It was still not enough. There was still a significant shortage! If he wanted to collect more, he could only leave the manor.
As this world was still full of unknown, Fang Heng had never left the manor.
If he wanted to increase his efficiency, he could only break through the bottom line and run out of the manor to take a look.
In order to avoid more trouble, Fang Heng decided to be cautious and bring fewer zombie clones with him. After all, fewer people meant fewer targets, and it would be easier to control small numbers as opposed to larger numbers.
Under the moonlight, Fang Heng led his fifty zombie clones out of the manor and into the suburbs.
The natural energy in the outside world was much rarer than Fang Heng had expected, and he often needed to search more carefully.
It was better than nothing.
Fang Heng spent more than half an hour walking around the manor with his zombie clones. During this time, he had to be careful not to be discovered by outsiders. Only when they were about to reach the main road in the suburbs did Fang Heng return to the manor with the newly collected thirty or so clusters of natural energy.
“Eh? Something’s not right…”
Fang Heng muttered to himself as he returned to the hall, his brows tightly knitted.
Why wasn’t the zombie clones’ leveling efficiency as high as expected?
In theory, the more natural energy they collected from the outside world, the more efficient the zombie clones should be in leveling up. With more than 30 balls of natural energy, shouldn’t the efficiency increase significantly?
Fang Heng checked the game hint carefully and felt even more baffled.
Strange, it was actually because of the loss of natural energy?
In fact, there was a strange structure in the entire room that could prevent natural energy from leaking out.
If it was not controlled by external forces, natural energy would not run amok most of the time.
Logically speaking, if he kept pouring natural energy into the manor, the amount of natural energy in the manor should be increasing.
Why was the natural energy gradually decreasing?
Could it have been swallowed by the climbing vines?
That was possible.
Fang Heng pondered for a moment and felt that he had found the answer.
In any case, it was only slightly lower than before. The climbing vines did not absorb much natural energy.
He just had to go out a few more times to make up for his losses.
It was just more troublesome.
While thinking, Fang Heng continued to lead the next batch of over a hundred zombie clones out of the manor to collect the natural energy.
He went back and forth twice.
Every time Fang Heng went out, he would explore and collect natural energy in a different direction.
When he returned to the manor for the third time, Fang Heng could not help but frown.
It was too strange!
After going back and forth three times in a row, there was not much change in the efficiency of the skill’s experience point increase.
The zombie clones’ farming efficiency seemed to have reached a stable point.
It gave him the feeling that the entire manor was like a funnel. The funnel was already full, and no matter how much natural energy was added, it would slowly dissipate.
But this manor was not a funnel!
There was no way to say that it was full or not.
What was going on?
Could it be that there was a problem with his automatic leveling layout?
He had to find the problem and fix the loophole.
Fang Heng couldn’t help but pay attention to the problem, and with a serious expression, he returned to his room.
He closed his eyes again and focused. He switched to the natural science state and sensed the natural energy around him.
After his natural science advanced to the elementary level, his perception of natural energy became much clearer.
After careful observation, he realized that the natural energy in the manor was indeed different.
The purity of the natural energy seemed to be higher than the natural energy in the outside world.
Comparing it to the natural energy that he had just brought in from the outside, Fang Heng had another epiphany.
Oh right.
It could be due to the effect of the climbing vines!
The climbing vines had a purifying effect.
