Chapter 156

For the previous half month, apart from attending common lessons, Garrett Nordmark plunged into animal experiments. He and Matthew, every sporting a set of bird-beak protecting fits. As for Bernard, he needed to make do with a bubble spell and gauze masks, helping with lifting and carrying duties.

Barbarian’s structure is +2? Or is it Toughness +2? Anyway, Garrett felt that the illnesses he may catch would, at most, make Bernard sneeze a bit…

In any case, the security of the experimenters was briefly assured. Garrett rigorously designed the method and, with the assistance of Priest Matthew, started the animal experiment: putting every wholesome animal in a separate cage, being attentive to the location and airflow to stop cross-contamination between cages (Priest Matthew kindly conjured vines and wove cages with grass and leaves, calling up the earth to type partitions and separate the cages);

One-third of the experimental animals, every cage containing a bat, to look at if the experimental animals residing with bats can be contaminated;

One-third of the experimental animals handled otherwise: including bat urine, bat feces, bat saliva, or mud collected from bats to the feed and water, or utilizing a cotton swab dipped in bat oral secretions to wipe the nostrils of the experimental animals;

The remaining one-third had been saved in regular cages as a management group.

Feeding on daily basis, observing the animals’ situations, and writing day by day data…

Garrett was actually grateful to Priest Matthew. He may construct cages, increase earth partitions, catch sheep, pigs, rabbits, and bats precisely, and by no means make a mistake in including meals and water, nor did he discover cleansing the animal cages too soiled. With out his assist, this animal experiment would actually be not possible to hold out in a day:

Garrett himself tried to catch a rabbit as soon as, reaching into the cage to really feel for a couple of minute however couldn’t catch it. The top outcome was the rabbit kicking his hand on the again. If he hadn’t pulled his hand again shortly, he suspected his fingers may need been damaged.

To not point out the lightning-fast white ferret, the mountain-goat-like sheep, and the hundred-kilogram black pig…

Garrett simply glanced at them and deserted the thought of doing it himself.

He stood beside and directed Priest Matthew, “Catch this rabbit! Flip it over! Measure its temperature! Stick the thermometer in! – Hey, don’t put it in its mouth. I solely have one thermometer; don’t let it chew on it! Mercury is toxic!”

“…Then the place ought to I put it?”

Garrett stared at Priest Matthew’s eyes underneath the bird-beak masks, lips tightly closed, resolutely silent.

Garrett answered with out hesitation, and Priest Matthew, piece by piece, memorized these seemingly mysterious information. Even when he didn’t know what it may very well be used for, the truth that somebody was generously sharing information made it value his effort to assist with the work.

“Why do we’d like an equal variety of women and men? We regarded for boars and rams for a very long time…” Particularly boars. Many younger boars had been killed and eaten, and it wasn’t really easy to borrow a breeding boar, it was virtually tear-inducing. Ultimately, they needed to catch a bunch of untamed boars within the woods…

“As a result of the likelihood of sickness in female and male people will not be the identical…”

Ah, poverty… Garrett regarded across the animal pens, correcting himself, the animal laboratory, and shed a sympathetic tear for himself. In response to the orthodox experimental design methodology, this variety of experimental animals would must be doubled at the least, however…

He may barely afford it.

Even when he may afford it, there weren’t sufficient arms to handle them. Even when there have been sufficient arms, there weren’t so many individuals to measure the temperature of every animal one after the other…

Ah, no marvel those that develop new medicine are large firms. When his standing rises sooner or later, he should ask the Magic Council for a analysis group particularly to assist him increase experimental animals…

Garrett added one more reason to try for an improve. Holding a pocket book, Priest Matthew measured the animal’s temperature as soon as, and he recorded it subsequent to him:

“Wild rabbit No. 12, temperature 39… Hmm, 39.2 levels, regular urge for food, regular spirit, regular defecation, no irregular secretions within the eyes, nostril, or mouth, good well being… Why do I’ve to measure if I already informed you this rabbit is regular?”

“We nonetheless should measure!—Moreover, how are you going to assure it’s undoubtedly regular?!”

“I can talk with it! Servants of the God of Nature can do this—No, you’ll be able to’t?!”

“Um…”

Garrett, who’s critically a fan of science, didn’t know the rest in regards to the expertise of a Nature God’s priest… moreover therapeutic arts.
