Chapter 812: Druids Visit
β...... You want to ask us to study the way of coexistence between man and nature?"
If Serena could have been sure that it was indeed a Druid Elder sitting in front of her, she would have laughed out loud by now.
But even so, she felt funnyβyes, a druid elder asked her, a mage who advocated the use of magical machines and the creation of factories to create pollution, to study the way life and nature coexisted!
"Serena Maid Chief, you have misunderstood. β
Kennett is a rare human druid, and he is also the elder of the 'Monsoon Ring', the largest druid organization in the world of Assatom, and his appearance in the human kingdom is already surprising enough, even Serena didn't expect him to ask her, or the [Ship of the Starry Sea], to study this thing.
He was gray-haired and wrinkled, but he was still strong.
Compared to other professions, druids have an extremely long lifespan, and it is said that in other worlds, there are even druids who have lived for nearly 10,000 years.
However, almost all of the high-ranking druids in the world of Assatom died in the war with the Arcane Empire, and most of today's druids grew up after that.
The maid wasn't sure how old the druid was, but as an 'elder', she should have lived for many years.
That's why she feels ridiculous about everything now!
The druid elder in front of him only had a piece of sackcloth around his waist, not without a strand of cloth, which showed that his attitude towards man-made objects was not too bad.
But a druid elder had come to ask a mage organization to study that kind of thing...... To be honest, the maid still feels ridiculous until now.
Looking back, Kennett said, "We just want you to provide some 'research materials,' like 'carbon dioxide,' 'oxygen,' and things like that...... That's what it's called, right?"
Kennett himself was not sure, for one of his juniors had heard it from some child, and by the time the news was passed on to him, the information had been very vague.
"Oxygen and carbon dioxide ......"
The maid muttered for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, that's what you want to say!"
Now she finally understood what the druid elder was trying to say!
In the words of the druid's Shinto, she didn't understand it, but when it came to it, she probably understood.
The reason why she wants to build a basic school and recruit children to read is not only to improve the literacy rate, but also to make them understand that facing the world is not just something that needs to be respected.
No matter what other civilization develops, it is only by challenging their own nature and challenging everything that the world has given them that they can develop.
Humans were initially very weak, and there was no magic in their blood, which was too weak compared to other races, not even much stronger than goblins.
But because of this, humans have passed down various career paths from generation to generation through learning and inheritance, and the first magic was born in the hands of humans.
Later, the power of this civilization spread to other races through communication with foreign races, and then other races also established other career paths beyond relying on the advantage of blood.
What Serena really wants to do is to convey this spirit, this kind of thinking to those children, so that those children know from an early age that when they face the world, it is not enough to just be in awe, otherwise, the country and civilization will never grow.
In the first half of the first year and the first half of the second year, it is enough to study words and mathematics, but in the second half of the second year, they need to 'understand' the world β the so-called 'natural' subject.
Humans need oxygen to survive, inhale oxygen, exhale carbon dioxide, and then plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, and this is a cycle.
Because Kennett mentioned this, the maid finally understood what he was trying to sayβ
It's not that they provide the oxygen that humans need to survive, and only plants can release oxygen.
He hopes that they will provide relevant research materials and information to slow down the rate at which humans are cutting down trees and clearing the wilderness.
After all, even if you don't know about human society, once something happens in human society that can harm nature, then the druid should be able to know about it as soon as possible.
Just like the magic energy machinery that appeared in the Duchy of Sorrow today, maybe these druids have known about it for a long time, but now the consequences of building factories on a large scale have not yet been reflected, so maybe these druids are still waiting.
But after learning that such research might benefit nature, Kennett rushed to Winder City as soon as possible.
- Serena guessed so!
After almost clearing her thoughts, the maid smiled at the druid elder in front of her and said, "Higher plants have 'chlorophyll' in their bodies, which allows plants to photosynthesize during the day, absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, and at night, when they can't photosynthesize, plants will absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide, which I think you should have known for a long time - plants also breathe." β
Kennett nodded frequently, and after listening to Serena's words, his mouth was paused.
Looking at his 'I see' look on his face, the maid couldn't help but purse the corners of her mouth, "If it's this part of the research materials, we can provide them to you free of charge, after all, this is the content of our basic school's textbooks, and you can buy them at the bookstore." But if you want to get more convincing information, you may have to pay some price to buy it!"
"No problem!"
After a moment of silence, Kennett nodded solemnly, "For the sake of 'nature', no matter what the cost, we can afford it!"
β...... In fact, it doesn't cost much. β
Seeing the serious expression on the druid's face, the maid smiled dumbly, shook her head, and said, "Since it is said to be 'more convincing' information, then it must be information that everyone can experiment with and fully understand it. Otherwise, if I say it and they can't do it themselves, they will continue to be skeptical. β
After a moment's pause, Kennett laughed, "Thank you so much." β
The smile of this druid elder is sincere, she has lived in human society for a long time, and has had more contact with the so-called 'high society', Serena has not seen this kind of sincere smile for a long time.
Serena smiled and shook her head, "You're welcome! You're willing to pay the 'price' for it, so it's a deal." β
With a smile on his face, Kennett and the maid repeatedly agreed on a time to 'pick up' the goods, and then left the office.
As the tall druid figure left the office, Serena was lost in thought.
As we all know, industrial production is inevitably accompanied by pollution, and this pollution is nature.
In the world of Assatom, there is a technology that can dispose of all the pollution, but the cost is a bit high.
She herself knew that the factory production would cause pollution, and she had taken measures to deal with it from the beginning, but others didn't know it...... Or rather, they know, but they won't do it!
For merchants and nobles, profit is the most important, as for whether pollution is not polluted or whatever, it is good to leave it to future generations to deal with, and all they need to do now is to make money.
It is precisely because of the short-sightedness of these people that Serena is a little worried now.
After all, the technology produced by the factory has been circulating for several years, and it has caused a lot of pollution, but it is still so small compared to the industrial age of the earth that not many people are aware of it now, not even the druids feel it.
But once the druids noticed this, what did they do?
The maid was very worried about this. (https:)
