Chapter 2798: Devil in ergot

Many tests conducted by Qiao An on white mice show that ergot is indeed a "double-edged sword."

On the positive side, its active ingredients have the effects of promoting vasoconstriction, muscle spasm, and nerve paralysis. It is very suitable as a hemostatic agent and midwifery agent, and has a wide range of application prospects in the field of obstetrics and gynecology.

But on the other hand, since ergot can be used to encourage pregnant women to give birth, it means that they can also abort fetuses that are not yet full-term.

It is not difficult to understand why the accidental ingestion of ergot is particularly harmful to pregnant women and fetuses, and often leads to tragedies of miscarriage.

Qiao An is not satisfied with these preliminary conclusions, and is more interested in the hallucinogenic effects of ergot.

As we all know, the toxicity of fungi or plants that can cause hallucinations to consumers often comes from specific alkaloids.

The famous drug "phantom dew" extracted by alchemists from cactus bulbs, and the "phantom spores" collected by Qiao Ann in the blood tundra tribe, are all alkaloids in nature.

Based on the above experience, Qiao An has reason to suspect that the hallucinogenic function of ergot bacteria also originates from certain alkaloids contained in it.

In the field of alchemy, separating and purifying mixtures one by one is a long-standing problem. However, with the "artificial artifact" specially used for separation and purification, the "mythological advanced supernatural craftsmanship", this problem can be easily solved.

Using this powerful tool, Qiao An successfully extracted a variety of substances with hallucinogenic effects from ergot, and also tried to use the amines and alkalis extracted from ergot to artificially synthesize a brand new alchemical compound. Named "ergotin".

Ergot is a colorless, odorless and tasteless liquid alkaloid with a strong hallucinogenic effect and is easily absorbed by the human body.

In order to test the hallucinogenic effect of ergostin, Joant took Conti to search in the jungle, and successfully "persuaded" the benevolent goblin friends to try the medicine.

Qiao An took these green-skinned volunteers back to the laboratory and gave them a physical examination. Healthy volunteers were selected to be fed a small amount of ergot, and the changes in their various physiological indicators were monitored in real time with "advanced endoscopy".

About 30 minutes later, Qiao An noticed abnormal reactions such as accelerated heartbeat, increased blood pressure, and dilated pupils.

After another hour, it was obvious that the subject had fallen into intense visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations and hallucinations, and was accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, headache, nausea and vomiting.

What kind of illusion will a goblin who smokes ergot produce?

This question made Qiao Ann very curious.

Driven by curiosity, he extracted a "mythical power" and established a "mythical link" with the experimental subject, sharing the other's senses, so as to achieve the purpose of personally experiencing the illusion.

As if stepping into a dream, the world before Qiao An's eyes became colorful.

The equipment in the laboratory, as the goblins of the experimental subjects, including the Conti next to them, have all become angular polyhedrons, with wispy and colorful lines emerging on their bodies, as if they have grown cilia, and they are like surging in the deep sea. Jellyfish.

The edges of buildings and walls radiate countless colored rays, which are repeatedly refracted in the laboratory, intertwined into densely colored grids, presenting wonderful fractal features. From a macro perspective, they look like blossoming flowers. And all these hallucinations together form a colorful kaleidoscope...

Along with the magnificent and strange hallucinations, Qiao An experienced an unprecedented euphoria, as if stepping on the clouds, doing whatever he wanted, omnipotent, and obtaining the ultimate freedom.

But when the effect of the medicine disappeared and the psychedelic period ended, it seemed as if he fell back to the earth from the sky of free flying, his body was bound by heavy shackles. The strong psychological gap made him feel depressed, and even a sense of world-weariness appeared. In reality The slight discomfort has been magnified thousands of times, and it has become more unbearable than before. If you can't re-experience the ecstatic hallucinations, it would be better to die as soon as possible.

Qiao An quickly realized that ergot had already had a negative impact on his mental state, and quickly cut off the "mythological link" and adjusted his mentality.

As for the goblin experiment body, exhausted by the powerful hallucinogenic effects of ergot, it collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

The results of the experiment made Qiao An shudder, but he didn't want to stop there.

In the morning of the next day, Qiao An set up an anonymous account on Cloud.com and placed an order on the black market to buy some "phantoms". He planned to use this Valesian world's most famous hallucinogen to synthesize his own ergot. Make a comparative experiment.

The results of the experiment shocked him.

The same dose of ergot, the hallucinogenic effect is equivalent to 200 times that of "psychedelic spores" and 3,000 to 5,000 times that of phantom dew (cactaceae)!

Qiao An suspected that he might have accidentally synthesized the strongest hallucinogen in Varese's world so far, awakening the demon that has been sleeping for thousands of years from the small ergot.

How to deal with this tempting and dangerous research result like a poisoned apple?

Qiao An couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he wrote a report on his research on ergot, in two copies, one for Conti to Ms. Valentina, and the other to Roland in Colasburg. Please take the time to take a look at the Emperor.

If Valentina and Roland do not object, Qiao An intends to rewrite this report into a paper and publish it publicly, which can be regarded as a summary of his scientific research work at this stage.

His Majesty's response to this research report was so strong that it exceeded Qiao An's expectations.

On the afternoon of the day he sent the report, Roland teleported it from Kolasburg to the "Land of Greens", first communicated with Valentina, and then came to Qiao'an's laboratory together.

His Majesty the Emperor and Ms. Jinlong made a joint visit, and Qiao An was baffled by the posture of invigorating the teacher.

After the three met, Qiao Ann sent Conti to the kitchen to prepare refreshments for the guests. He also wanted to talk about the weather according to social routines. He exchanged some greetings, but was interrupted by the serious-faced Emperor His Majesty.

"Dr. Vinda, I have read your research report. Frankly speaking, I admire your ingenuity and profound knowledge, but the newly synthesized alkaloid, ergotin, that you put forward in the report, makes me deeply impressed. Feeling uneasy."

"I won't say any more polite remarks, I hope you... No, Dr. Vinda, I beg you, do not publish this report, at least you should not publish the synthesis method of ergot!"

"Your Majesty... Your request really makes me feel puzzled and prevents me from publishing research results. There must be a reasonable reason, right?"

Qiao An couldn't help but question it face to face.
