Struggle in the Steam Age

After the two people discussed the small episode about when to notify each other, Lawrence began to study the changes in Nora. Compared to picking tea leaves to make black tea, he thinks that the changes that are happening in the puppet are the most noteworthy things, and in the process, Nora also does her best to cooperate with Lawrence to do some small experiments.

"In addition to being able to perceive which tree has tea leaves that are tender enough to be picked, what else can you feel other than that the tea leaves on which tree are old and cannot be picked?" The first thing in the investigation was naturally. It was to understand what happened to the little doll Nara now.

"Let me feel it." Nora said after listening to Lawrence's questions, then closed her eyes and meditated. If you change to Lawrence or any human, you need to repeatedly try various possibilities to understand this problem, and finally you can vaguely determine where you have changed. But for a constructed life like Nora, it is enough to complete a self-check after knowing the direction.

"I think I probably know the changes on my body." Ten minutes later, Na pull, who was sitting on the treetop and shaking his calf rhythmically, stopped suddenly, and then opened his eyes and said. "This change is mainly focused on perception. My perception now is much stronger than before."

Having said this, Nora flew up from the branch to the height of face to face with Lawrence, and then reported to Lawrence about her current changes. Listening to her narration, Lawrence realized that the change that happened to the puppet should be a change in a good direction, and it was probably related to the magic of prophecy.

Because according to Nora, the external performance of the changes that happened to her after receiving that group of magical powers can be said to be a kind of ability similar to the Unexpected Prophet. For example, as long as she thinks in her heart, she can easily perceive that she knows a series of surrounding information. For example, whether there is a pit on the nearby ground, and what is the situation of a tree in her field of vision.

However, this feeling now seems to have a distance limit. According to Nora, when she wants to know something, she must ensure that the thing is within 500 meters away from herself, and at the same time, she has to know the thing. A vague concept, such as the specific location or approximate image of something you want to understand, cannot be perceived out of thin air.

"It feels like you have developed some kind of prophetic magic talent. It's not just an increase in perception." After the puppet had finished talking about his situation, Lawrence thought about it for a while and said to her, "If only If only perception is enhanced, it is theoretically impossible to get a lot of detailed information just after thinking about it."

"Under normal circumstances, that enhanced perception will let you know some special information. But that information needs to be counted by yourself. For example, it is like whether there are young leaves on a tea tree. If it is just perception If you enhance it, theoretically you will have a specific image of this tree in your mind, but you need to observe whether there are young leaves. Instead of feeling the information you want in the dark after your simple perception like now ."

"It sounds a bit complicated, but this change should be a good thing anyway." Nora said after smiling at Lawrence, "Besides, if I suddenly had some kind of prophecy talent, it wouldn't be too strange. Yes, after all, the Baize bloodline you have is good at prophesying, and I have a special soul connection with you. Because it should be a very normal thing for me to have a part of the talents you have."

Never mind that Nara is usually full of childishness in dealing with people, but she also has careful thinking when encountering business affairs. At least from the knowledge of the soul that people currently recognize, an analysis like Nora's is very reasonable, which is why she seems so relaxed now.

After a simple analysis and found that the changes in Nora's body should be a good thing, Lawrence and the others went into the intense tea picking work. It took more than an hour to check the abnormality of the little doll just now. Now the sky is completely dark. In order to avoid the people in the tribe from worrying, they must finish their work and return to the tribe as soon as possible.

Fortunately, now with the new abilities of the puppets, their work efficiency is greatly improved. It only took them ten minutes to pick up two bamboo baskets full of fresh tea buds. Naturally, being able to pick so quickly was naturally with the help of magic. Lawrence found that his mental power was now able to manipulate the hands of the mage to complete the delicate work of picking tea buds and young leaves.

After returning to the tribe, Lawrence originally planned to help Nora process these tea leaves into black tea. But Nora said that the tricks that can make these tea leaves ferment quickly are only available to him for the time being, and he can do nothing but mess up the past. Instead of this, let Lawrence take a good rest tonight, and think about how you can best persuade others tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Nora took the black tea processed over the night and went to the kitchen in the tribe with Lawrence. The kitchen in the tribe is easy to recognize. It is a building in the whole tribe whose construction area is second only to the assembly room. At the same time, the building itself and the surroundings look very clean.

The tauren and the territories directly under Lawrence are all group dining systems, and the reason is consistent with Lawrence's idea, that is, to save fuel as much as possible while improving work efficiency. After all, each family’s own cooking will not only cause obvious waste of fuel and labor, but also difficult to ensure food safety.

For example, as far as Lawrence knows, before cooking and after cooking, the witch doctors and shamans of the tribe will enter the kitchen to check which ingredients are safe. Considering that this area is tropical and food is easier than other places, I have to say that this approach is very smart.

When the two of them walked to the door of the kitchen, they happened to see the tauren shaman yesterday wearing a very formal costume with a slender totem pole in his hand, standing at the door waiting for them at the previously agreed time. Of course, an important purpose of his appearance here is to check the food safety of which foods, which is why he would wear this spellcasting costume and stand at the door waiting for them.

"Ah, you are finally here!" As Lawrence walked over with a wooden barrel with a lid on his back, the tauren shaman slightly raised the totem pole with his right hand and greeted the two of them. . "But you have to wait a while, and we will go in and make tea after everyone has finished cooking."

"Understood." Lawrence stopped and stood outside the door of the collective kitchen, and then looked at the several tauren aunts who were busy in the kitchen and the furnishings inside the tauren kitchen.

Tauren’s kitchen and human’s kitchen look very similar ~www.ltnovel.com~ but there are two distinctive features. One is that due to their size, all the kitchen utensils in the kitchen appear to be better than normal human use. Is much bigger. The other is that there are two huge stoves in one corner of the kitchen. The color of the soil seems to be newly repaired. There are two huge iron pots on the stove.

"Our food has improved a lot recently, thanks to our trade with you." The tauren shaman said after discovering that Lawrence was interested in everything in the kitchen. "I think you should have seen those two new stoves. They were built after I bought iron pots from you. Before, our stoves were like honeycombs, requiring a lot of small pots. Boiling water costs a lot of fuel and can’t burn much.”

"Since we established contact with you, we have bought a lot of metal tools. In addition to benefiting our usual production, it has also greatly improved our lives. At least in terms of cooking, these iron pots are heavier than those in the past. The big clay pot is much easier to use."

While talking, the tauren in the kitchen finished the meal and walked out the door carrying the pot. The tauren shaman immediately stopped chatting with Lawrence and the others and cast a spell to detect the food in the pot.

"No problem." The shaman nodded after casting the spell, and then said to Lawrence. "Well, now we can go to make tea."
