Chapter 165 - A Single Grass That Can Slay a Dragon
“I heard, Professor Ye, that you brought back a Longleaf Swordgrass from the ascension realm. I’m quite interested in the Longleaf Swordgrass and was wondering if I could have a look at it.”
“Oh.”
Inside a certain research institute, Professor Ye, while watering plants and answering her phone, nodded and replied, “I see.”
She kind of understood. Lu Ran’s Captain Doofus was proficient with sword-like weapons, so Lu Ran must have gotten a whimsical idea to see if the Longleaf Swordgrass could serve as a sword.
“Originally, it wouldn’t have been a problem,” Professor Ye said regretfully in response to Lu Ran’s request.
“If you had come to me earlier, perhaps there might have been a chance.”
“What do you mean?” Lu Ran was surprised.
“That Longleaf Swordgrass is on the verge of death. It’s already withering. Its toughness and sharpness are all gone, and it’s gone soft. If you want to see the Longleaf Swordgrass, now isn’t the right time.”
Lu Ran was dumbfounded.
Grass is still a type of plant. You’re a botanist, aren’t you? How could you let it wither!?
“It’s fine, Professor Ye. Do you have time now?” Lu Ran still insisted on seeing it.
