Chapter 573 The Tree of Dreams
Castrobush and Hogwarts exchanged light-cultivation techniques—and subsequently made a lot of improvements.

After all, they are number one in herbal medicine, and the reserve technology is there. Andrew has some basic knowledge of herbal medicine, but it is so confusing that he can’t understand it at all.

Fortunately, Andrew easily found external help – although there was still work to do, he really couldn’t focus on it because he didn’t understand the principle.

“Well, I know about that. I have provided some ideas, but I am too busy at school and cannot get away. Professor Sprout has already gone there.”

what?
“Professor Sprout went there? What’s going on over there? Did they enchant the wild banyan tree?”

“Almost,” Professor Adams said as he brought some raspberries to Andrew. “It’s not completely magical. That thing is bigger than their campus, so it’s really hard to cast a spell. It’s actually a process of magical infection… You know what magical infection is, right?”

…

Sorry, Professor Adams, please don’t say too much about improving the class’s level of herbal spellcasting. I am just someone who can get the OWLs certificate level.

“Anyway, it’s something like that. Magical infection is often used to breed new plants – it’s much easier than breeding magical creatures. But I don’t know how Hagrid got the fire crab. His hybrid breeding skills are better than I thought.”

…

I really don’t understand the matter of magical creatures.

Andrew’s student mentality is very good at the moment.

“In short, it’s plant pollution, and then rapid cultivation. You also mentioned that it’s the lighting technology, which is very useful. We couldn’t get such a good light source before, but it’s different now. Therefore, the rapid cultivation method can be used on many rare plants.”

“The rapid cultivation method… is even more outrageous.”

An explanation emerged in Andrew’s mind – Professor Sprout had demonstrated this technology before, using nutrients and ridiculously abundant light to quickly cultivate some plants that hate sunlight, allowing them to grow tall in a short period of time.

He had never seen it, but he heard from the professor that Professor Sprout could even grow a Devil’s Snare that looked like it had grown for more than ten years in just a few days. That was really scary.

Those that can accept more light will grow much more slowly, such as common hedges. Because they can accept light, they only grow to a height of about ten days in one day.

“So now, super light speeds up the growth of light-loving plants?”

Ander made a bold guess and felt that the whole person’s head was a little big.

“Yes, we can even grow cacti quickly now! We just need to add protective magic and more nutrients!”

Professor Adams nodded at Andrew, looking very proud.

“But, what does this have to do with standards?”

“It’s very important. Previously, the data was not interoperable enough and difficult to convey. Now, an owl carrying two dream beads can transmit hundreds of times the amount of information before, and they are all in the same unit, so there is no need for any conversion. In fact, we have been providing data to Castrobus these days. The growth data and performance data of the plants in the Hogwarts greenhouse under the same amount of light and magic are now unified!”

Professor Adams was delighted. “This cooperation project took us a lot of time. Thanks to your standard data, otherwise it would have taken a long time just to translate it.”

…

“Two schools joining forces?”

Andrew asked tentatively.

He remembered that there had been reports of contact before – but he had never expected that the path of cooperation would be so wild.

“Was I too busy with the Dream Beads or alchemy to pay attention to this?” Andrew wanted to scold himself.

“In fact, many herbs are common, and we have been exchanging information over the years. However, because the data is not interoperable and each company has different emphases, it is quite troublesome to calculate.”

Professor Adams explained with a smile.

‘In fact, data intercommunication is the highlight. Of course, the Dream Bead is also good as the most convenient carrier for transmitting information. The standard is just a cover. I wonder how such a great achievement can be made in one go. It turns out that it is the accumulation of technology over and over again.’

“So Professor Adams, what is the dream tree like now?”

“It can only be considered a large dream reserve. Plants have very little thinking ability, but they do have it occasionally, so they can slowly help sort out the data.”

???

No, what?
Andrew was stunned for a moment, but soon thought of that strange thing called the mandrake – if there is a grass that can pull itself out and sing, what else can he say?

Besides, I’ve seen reports of plants having thoughts before, so I’ll just leave it at that.

“But the problem now is that there are too many dreams and they happened too quickly, making it a little confused. We are now trying to figure out whether we can use the dream interaction of the dream beads to make it more mature.”

Professor Adams gestured with his hands, “Of course, the most important thing is to realize the originally designed function, to piece together the dreams and try to make it so that we can immerse ourselves in the dreams we are looking for – a dream full of herbal medicine data, and we can immerse ourselves in any dream fragment.”

“Thanks to the Dream Beads and data, this idea is very likely to be realized, because there is a lot of research on dream reserves, and we have obtained a lot of data that can be used directly.”

…

Professor Adams’ answer stunned Andrew – this was a path he had never imagined.

But the point is, it looks like it could work.

Dream Tree Server?
And as for the consciousness of that tree, it always feels like it’s AI, no, it should be called a tree spirit.

What on earth is this stitching?

“You thought of that, too, didn’t you, Taylor?”

Professor Adams looked at Andrew’s surprised face and said, “Yes, that’s what I was thinking of, the tree man, the world tree!”

!!!

What on earth are you looking at!
“But unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to work. They are too stupid. And even if it is a large magical banyan tree, it is still difficult to build a dream network. You can’t use the aerial roots of the tree to connect people, right?”

“What about pollen or spores? A miniature dream that carries a sentence?”

“It’s even worse. The pollution is serious.”

Professor Adams had obviously thought about this issue. “But it is true that aerial roots can transmit dreams. It depends on whether Professor Sprout can come up with something new next time. By the way, do you want to go there as an exchange student for a year next year? I’ll be an exchange professor, and then the two of us can directly build the Dream Tree and even set up a dream network!”

Andrew was a little tempted – it would be great if large networks were connected.

But he quickly shook his head regretfully, “No, if I don’t take the OWLs next year, the professor and the dean will come after me.”
