Chapter 140 Atavistic Cloning

at dusk.

After finishing his official duties for the day, Gu Bo returned to Xiaobai Building and made a habit of going to the alchemy laboratory on the third floor to check on Lei Luo's study progress.

The mood seemed good.

Gu Bo's steps became much brisker as a result.

Even Gu Bo had to admit that his originally seemingly dull disciple had far exceeded the so-called genius category in terms of his talent in alchemy.

Even when he was studying and traveling in the Principality of Finland, he heard many legends about so-called alchemist masters, but none of them were in Lei Luo's situation!

In just one month, he completely mastered the basic properties of magic materials.

What's even more frightening is that he has developed high-quality mutations one after another based on an almost 100% success rate.

"This kid seems to be a good choice to work at the Vladik War Research Institute in the future."

Although Fort St. Grant houses the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences and the Grant Royal Institute of Science, it is not the only academic sanctuary for scholars from the Principality of Grant.

the reason is simple.

The theological atmosphere of St. Granburg is too strong.

So much so that the Grant Royal Institute of Science was built in the suburbs, far away from the influence of theology.

In addition to the Royal Scientific Research Institute of St. Grant, the Principality of Grant also has several large-scale high-tower research institutes. Each tower is a collection of many large laboratories. It plays a decisive role in the Principality of Grant and is under the jurisdiction of the Royal Academician Committee. branch academic institutions.

Vladik War Research Institute is one of them.

Squeak.

When I opened the door of the alchemy laboratory, I was still greeted by the dry smell of fire.

Gu Bo knew that his disciple had a habit of opening the alchemy furnace and observing the alloy solution with the naked eye, instead of the ordinary alchemist's habit of observing the flame.

"how's it going?"

Gu Bo stared at the high-temperature flames in the furnace and said calmly.

Lei Luo said respectfully: "I tried to refine an intermediate wand today. The magical properties are quite passable. Take a look, instructor."

Taking the wand handed over by Lei Luo, Gu Bo input some energy.

"Well, not bad."

Although Gu Bo's voice was calm, there was a storm in his heart.

It's only been a few days and you've already started trying to refine a wand?

Refining a magic wand is a threshold for an alchemist.

As long as you can refine a qualified wand, it is equivalent to announcing that you are a qualified alchemist, and you can embark on the path of a professional alchemist from now on.

For an alchemist.

The knowledge of energy runes can be accumulated over time and learned. As long as you are not too stupid, you can basically reach a very high level of knowledge after you live to be one or two hundred years old. However, the experience and skills of alloy solutions are something that all alchemists have to learn throughout their lives. The process of pursuit!

"Lei Luo."

"Um?"

Lei Luo looked at Gu Bo, feeling uneasy. He was hesitating whether to tell his mentor about his encounter with the female mentor on the roof of the building during the day.

"Alchemists are divided into three levels."

Gu Bo suddenly said this.

Lei Luo looked stern and looked at his mentor intently.

"You have now been able to ensure the basic application of magical materials and have reached the first level. You are a qualified alchemist. Congratulations. I have to admit that your alchemy talent has far exceeded the knowledge of a teacher. , I even feel that your alchemy talent has been somewhat delayed here, and you should have a better alchemy academic tutor."

"Teacher, please don't say that!"

Lei Luo said in a panic.

Seeing Lei Luocheng's fearful look, Gu Bo smiled slightly.

"Okay, let me tell you about the levels of alchemists. Above the alchemists, there are master alchemists. Most of the alchemist masters in the human principalities are gathered in the principality of Finland, which is the holy land of alchemists."

"What is the difference between a master alchemist and an alchemist?"

Lei Luo asked tentatively.

Gubo showed a trace of contemplation, seeming to recall the past events of his youth.

"If you want to reach the level of an alchemist master, you must first accumulate time and perfect the application of energy runes. This is the foundation, and it will take at least several decades. In addition, you also need some kind of exclusive formula skills, different alchemy Masters often incorporate their own special formula attributes into the magic weapons they forge, and their works will be sought after by many famous scholars almost as soon as they come out."

Exclusive recipe tips?

Lei Luo was thoughtful.

"What about Master Alchemist?"

Lei Luo asked.

"Forge the Holy Magic Weapon! The Holy Magic Weapon is a powerful magic weapon that can exert 'mythical' power. The alchemist master who creates the Holy Magic Weapon is called the Alchemist Holy Magician. Such a master has been around since the birth of mankind. Since then, only three have been born, the same number as the pioneers. The three holy magicians forged a total of four holy magic weapons, which became the academic heritage of the four principalities of Zealand, Glen, Finland and Wellland respectively. "

Mythical power, the four holy magic weapons!

Lei Luo was filled with excitement.

The Grant Academy of Natural Sciences owns a holy magic weapon?

"Your alchemy talent is very good. You may be able to achieve higher achievements on this path in the future. Keep working hard."

"Teacher, I understand!"

Lei Luo looked calm and was not proud of his small achievements.

Gu Bo raised his eyebrows. Seeing Lei Luo's calm performance, he couldn't help but reflect in his heart, had he really gone too far before?

Why didn't you see this guy's advantages in the first place?

Now I don’t know why, but the more I look at it, the more pleasing it is to my eyes.

"By the way, mentor, I have been promoted to level six today."

Not wanting to break the surging and beautiful atmosphere because of the female tutor who suddenly appeared during the day, Lei Luo thought about it and chose not to tell the tutor about it.

"oh?"

Gubo nodded.

"Okay, these days I have been trying to find some breakthroughs in "Atavistic Cloning" based on the characteristics of your cursed true body, and I have finally achieved some results. Now that you have been promoted to level 6, it is time to tell you about the so-called atavistic cloning. Basic academic principles.”

Once academic knowledge was involved, the old man suddenly became serious.

And Lei Luo himself is also a being who pursues excellence in academic knowledge and will never tolerate ambiguity.

Gubo took Lei Luo to the specimen laboratory.

Sitting at the experimental table, Lei Luo took out his notebook and looked more serious than ever.

After searching for a while in a collection of thousands of specimens, Guber pulled out a strange specimen.

This is a human baby girl!

However, her body was covered with scales and hair, and a pair of gills sprouted from both sides of her cheeks. She was currently soaked in preservatives, still maintaining the monster posture after birth.

"I know what you're going to say. Yes, it's a drowned foundling, but to the benighted church, it's a devil, so it's not blasphemous to keep it as a specimen."

"oh."

Lei Luo looked stern.

"The academic birth of "Atavistic Cloning" originated from my research on the mysteries of biological evolution. I discovered a wonderful phenomenon, which is atavistic degeneration."

Atavism?

Lei Luo murmured in confusion.

"Yes, it is degeneration, just like this abandoned baby. According to my inference, it should be the awakening of certain memories from ancient times in the cell memory, causing these cyclical changes in the lives conceived in the mother's body. Degeneration. And based on this degradation, I extracted a special liquid, which I named the Source of Life."

Lei Luo frowned and looked at Gu Bo.

"Teacher, according to the "Mystery of Evolution", biological evolution should make it more and more powerful. What is the role of this atavistic degeneration ability?"

"But that's not the case!"

Gubo denied.

"According to my research, the biological evolution of this world is not actually becoming stronger and stronger as described in Antonio's "Evolutionary Secrets". "Evolutionary Secrets" is only reasoning about objective laws, but the actual situation in the Star Curtain World is not In this way, changes in the natural environment will greatly affect the ultimate strength of living things. Living things are not getting stronger, but becoming more and more adaptable to the environmental changes in this world!"

Under Lei Luo's gaze, Gubo took a deep breath.

"According to my research, the so-called ancient creatures are just legendary creatures born in that distant era before the historical fault, when natural energy was abundant. It's just because the star curtain world of that era had extremely abundant natural energy, so these were huge in size. Only ancient creatures can rely on their self-evolution mode to break through certain shackles and possess the strength of individual creatures against gods!"

Well?

After Gu Bo explained it this way...

Lei Luo suddenly felt that this seemed to make sense.

Lei Luo tentatively said: "So, the description in "The Secret of Evolution" is just some kind of objective law? The actual situation in the Star Screen World is not like this? Biological evolution is not getting stronger and stronger? It is becoming more and more adaptable to the world environment. Survive? Or is there some kind of cyclical pattern? Is it just because we humans have been born for such a short time that it is difficult to detect this periodicity? "

"have no idea."

Amid Lei Luo's astonishment, Gu Bo was quite free and easy.

"I just need to know that the legendary creatures of that era were stronger than the legendary creatures of today. As long as we find a way to return the creatures with ancient bloodline to some of the characteristics of that era, we can make some aspects of it stronger. This is enough!"

Study overnight.

Lei Luo initially understood the academic secret of "Atavistic Cloning".

Core knowledge is the source of life extracted by Gubo.

The secret of academics is to use the source of life to activate the atavistic degeneration of certain creatures with ancient bloodline, and activate the characteristics of certain ancient creatures, thus enhancing certain talents of this creature. Evolutionary mystic scholars can then use this as their basis. Basis, the energy magnetic field that solidifies the specimen.

This is equivalent to allowing all academic abilities of evolutionary mystic scholars to increase a part of their power out of thin air!

However, the financial resources required to verify such a large-scale experiment are simply too huge.

According to Gu Bo's explanation, it will take at least thousands or tens of thousands of experiments on ancient bloodline biological specimens to obtain a series of relatively stable data, thus starting a practical phase of research.

This kind of ultra-large-scale experiment is almost equivalent to the resources consumed by investing in a dozen large laboratories at the same time, which is to build a new high-tower research institute!

It is not difficult to understand the hesitation of the Royal Academician Committee.

after all!

Even among the Royal Academicians, only the most outstanding members are often eligible to enjoy investment from the Principality's research institutes, such as the famous Vladik Institute for War Research, the Corleone Institute of Biology, etc.

Under the Tower Research Institute, there are many large laboratories and small laboratory clusters, as well as many technology transformation factories and business investment groups, etc.

The distribution of interests involved is too much, far beyond what a college dean can bear.

But if you become the vice president of the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences...

There seems to be a glimmer of hope for investment.
