"Interesting, real biological warfare."

After reading the report, Ian nodded with interest: "But the plants in this world are much tougher than those on the previous earth, and ordinary viruses, bacteria and fungi are of no use."

"Especially for sublimated plants, in addition to biomass, they also have a source material structure that can self-correct. If you want to succeed the first time, the possibility is extremely low."

At that time, the rice and banana species on the earth were once extinct due to banana-specific species of Fusarium oxysporum. This facultative parasitic fungus can infect a variety of plants and can remain in the soil for many years. The contaminated land can no longer grow original crops.

However, for self-replicating crops like bananas, although ordinary plants will be affected by disasters, it is not difficult to recover.

In Terra, the 'rot root fungus' developed by the Flying Flame Land is indeed a more terrifying biological weapon than Fusarium oxysporum. With Ian's bio-alchemy level, you can tell how terrifying this thing is at a glance. .

——It corrodes the root system, hinders nutrient transportation, affects leaf development, and can be spread by a variety of insects, birds and animals...it can even secrete highly toxic toxins and corrupt the soil.

If it were placed on the earth, it would definitely be a regional ecological disaster.

But its opponent is also the stronger Terra plant!

Ian doesn't dare to underestimate the plants on this planet. Among other things, who knows if there is anything like Karin's Flower?

Just looking at the plants in Nanling, they can even transmit vaccines against many different diseases through spiritual energy. As long as one plant is immune, all individuals in the area will be immune!

As for the corrupted soil, it is even more funny. It is as if there are no creatures that feed on poison or can remove poison in Nanling. Even if it is nuclear radiation, look at how prosperous the ecosystem of the South China Sea Labyrinth is.

Therefore, Feiyandi's report also mentioned that they cannot pollute the land in a place for a long time. They can only affect specific crops through long-term research and cultivation, causing production reductions in key areas during critical periods.

This requirement is much lower, and the effect may not be bad.

As long as Nanling's food production was reduced during the war, followed by Archduke Thorin's blockade, the Nanling Army would have to surrender without a fight.

"Oh, it seems that this is Feiyandi's war strategy. They are not stupid enough to actually send troops to fight guerrilla warfare and public security warfare in Nanling, so they directly fight a food war."

Keeping this report in his pocket, Ian knew that he had gained something big this time.

Not only can it reasonably predict Archduke Thorin's surrender to the enemy in advance, but it can also allow the Imperial Capital to start to be wary of biological warfare in the Flying Flame Land as early as possible.

But why didn't I see this in the Insect's Nest Dream?

Ian thought about it carefully, and then smiled - in the form of a worm hive, he pushed the entire Grand Duchy of Thorin flat, and even the empire and the Flying Flame could not stop it. Of course, he did not remember such trivial matters as biological warfare.

"However, Feiyandi was able to establish such a small biological data collection base within the empire, which proves that they should have a large laboratory in the western part of the empire. Otherwise, they would not have been able to cultivate local strains of Nanling so quickly. Biological weapons like hemorrhage worm and root rot fungus.”

"Grand Duke Thorin should have completely surrendered to the Flying Flame Land."

Ian searched for other documents, most of which were local business data.

Looking at it now, they want to confirm Nanling's self-produced grain data and export data to ensure that the long-prepared crop production reduction will force Nanling's military and civilians to surrender.

This is not a big deal in the first place. No matter how idle the imperial bureaucracy is, this kind of thing can still be discovered.

But Ian believed that since the Flying Flame Land could corrupt Duke Thorin, he would certainly not mind corrupting some officials in Nanling - it was their indifference and connivance that made the special forces so rampant.

They may even be planning to stock up on rare items.

When the two countries come to war and this year's harvest is almost destroyed by Feiyan's biological war, they can use the food they have hoarded in the past few years to make a fortune and reap wealth.

"The head of such a person is also a meritorious service. If you become a patrol knight, you can see which guys are buying food on the market in recent times. When the time comes, go and check them one by one. If you kill them all, there will definitely be innocent ones. Every other one Killing someone will definitely slip through the net."

Back then, Port Harrison almost ran out of food because of the war with the indigenous people. If Viscount Grant hadn't used his own means to get a batch of aid, a large number of people might have starved to death.

But in the future war between the two countries, not to mention one of the Viscount's methods, Patrick is already dead. Even if he is still there, he probably won't be able to get much, and it will definitely not be able to satisfy Harrison Port, which has a greatly increased population.

Ian writes this down on a silver chip ‘notepad’ and sets key reminders.

And most importantly.

"Xiahui grass, isn't it my destination this time, a specialty of Lian Ling?"

The young man left the document storage area and looked at the things stored in other warehouses.

Indeed, they are all biological samples, most of which have been infected with various fungi and pests, various crops, and different characteristics.

Wheat with yellow and dry leaves; potato vines that are so bright that they look poisonous; fruit branches with various wormholes and gray veins...

Among them happened to be a Xiahui grass sample marked as 'important sample, handle with care'.

This spiritual plant, which is said to be very beautiful, has been entangled with gray-white mycelium so that its original shape cannot be seen. It is like a beautiful skeleton wrapped in layers of ropes. All that is left is decay, and the original blue mist has turned gray. .

[Xia Hui grass (rotted)]

The silver chip also flashed this message.

Because the special product of Ryanland is the psychic nourishing extract extracted from Xiahui grass, an excellent tonic for psychics, it is regarded as a strategic target by the Flying Flame Land, and it is the first target of rot root fungus when it arrives. Experimental hit targets.

This kind of blow will definitely not last long, and the empire's biological alchemists are not vegetarians.

But the problem is that the main ingredient of Ian's second-level potion is ready, and the auxiliary ingredient can be delivered as long as it reaches the place. The only thing missing is the matrix. If it is late this time, the advancement will have to be delayed.

He doesn't have time.

"Gotta speed up."

Ian thought a little casually. Let's just kill all the members of the Flying Flame Land Special Forces along the way. If you want to join the Patrol Knights, you probably need some merit.

He turned back, preparing to clean up the bodies of the Ascendants from Feiyandi outside. Because he needed to borrow these people's brains, he didn't hit the vital points from the beginning.

When Ian returned to the caravan after collecting the heads of the three Ascended Ones and hanging them around his waist, the people in the caravan had just started to set fire to cook.

The caravan steward wanted to step forward to show his courtesy and ask Ian if he had forgotten anything when he returned, but he saw three heads hanging around his waist.

"Wait, sir, do you mean..."

He was trembling, not with fear, but with excitement.

As a member of the White People, he was extremely looking forward to the significance of Ian's mission this time.

"yes."

And Ian nodded, he untied the three heads, took out the documents from his pocket, and handed them to the other party: "Tomorrow morning, send a few reliable people to take the mole, these heads, and these documents. Back to Port Harrison.”

"Don't worry. I've killed everyone. There's no danger. It's a great job. I'll send your henchmen there."

"Yes, Master, I will definitely do it!"

Hearing this, the steward swallowed his saliva, but his eyes shone brightly, and he nodded and quickly agreed.
