Scene 271. New achievements
Mutation, selection and isolation are the content of the comprehensive evolution theory on the earth. Compared with Darwin's initial theory of evolution, this theory pays more attention to population evolution, and has more interpretations of the struggle for overreproduction and survival in the original Darwinian evolution theory. At the same time, it introduces theories such as gene inheritance that have not yet developed during the Darwinian period, which have been improved to improve the explanation of evolution.
Of course, Reiner did not make these guesses just by slapping his head. He made this guess by combining the archaeological discoveries of the Irazmas semi-plane and the observation of organisms. To be precise, he currently has no means to directly prove this view, so he is just a guess.
After speaking his opinion, Reiner did not speak anymore, but gave the right to Baptiste.
Baptist said nothing, not knowing whether he was digesting Reiner's theory or thinking about something else. The magic in the air seemed to have vague ripples, but in the end he still returned to silence.
After a long time, Baptist nodded slightly.
"Mr. Ian Gray, your idea is very creative. I think we have the opportunity to find a place in the past two days, and combine the information and discuss it carefully."
He pondered the words, but obviously, this was not what Reiner expected.
"Mr. Baptiste, I know you value your research, but sometimes, maybe it's more helpful to stop and look at something else."
Reiner said with some slight slightness.
Baptist's eyes were in the middle of the ancient well, and Reiner's words seemed to have no effect on him.
"Sorry, Mr. Ian Gray, I have a few more experiments next."
Take out the pocket watch from his pocket, Baptist said, it seems that he doesn't want to discuss this issue with Reiner, or if the topic goes deeper, there may be some results that Baptist is unwilling to see.
Reiner didn't say anything more and watched Baptiste go away.
In the afternoon, Reiner did not leave his room, and he did not go downstairs to the restaurant for dinner until evening.
Everyone still kept their original appearance, everything was as usual.
But Reiner still felt that under the calm, the undercurrent was surging.
As the dinner was coming to an end, Baptist asked his students to take their children out of the restaurant first, and then he stood up with a glass of red wine in his hand.
"Everyone, I want to tell you something."
Baptist said, and he stood up and said in a steady tone.
"I have made new breakthroughs in the theory of species evolution in the past two days."
He glanced at Reiner, then drank the red wine in his glass.
"Please follow me."
Baptist walked out of the restaurant, while the other mages were a little confused and looked at each other, but they all followed Baptist's footsteps.
"What should we show us at this time?"
Jane was a little confused and looked at her teacher, but Agnes was very interested.
Alimiya was hesitant, but Reiner patted her on the shoulder.
"It's fine."
He said this, which made Arimiya take the lead.
Edgar and his three students were unaware of this, so they wanted to do their own things after the meal, but now Baptist's invitation was unable to refuse, so they could only follow.
The group came to the fourth floor of the research area. Reiner had never been here. They walked into a dim laboratory. Baptist turned on the light and saw that in the slightly empty laboratory, except for a few clean and tidy laboratory benches, there was only a square object, covered with black cloth.
Reiner vaguely felt something under the black cloth. He didn't say anything, but just silently put something in Elimiya's hands.
"Um?"
Arimiya was a little overwhelmed by Reiner's sudden move, but she still caught the thing.
"Everyone, the sea wolf I raised gave birth to a cub for several weeks, and last night, it opened its eyes and, according to my tests, the cub has evolved far more than Jack and Rose you've seen before, and their child Lar."
Baptiste did not notice the small movements of Reiner and Elimiya, and he only introduced them to everyone.
"Although this new sea wolf has just opened his eyes, he has been able to communicate with words like Lar. Its learning ability is very fast and has mastered basic reading and writing in one day. This must be inherited from the wisdom of his parents."
His words surprised everyone slightly.
Even human children are basically impossible to master reading and writing within two months. If what Baptist said is true, then the wisdom of this sea wolf will even surpass humans.
"Mr. Baptiste, are you saying true?"
Edgar raised his eyebrows slightly. He could still accept the scene of the sea wolf communicating through the letter board that he saw yesterday, but now, the things Baptist thrown out seem too bizarre. Even Edgar, who was unwilling to cause trouble, was confused.
If everything is true, then the evolutionary method Baptist mastered is beyond the times.
The biggest constraint on a mage is lifespan. It is difficult for a mage to reach a higher level in a limited lifespan. However, if wisdom can be passed on to the next generation in some way, then in less than three generations, the overall magic level of human beings will be greatly improved. By that time, the higher level will no longer be a distant existence.
This may lead to a second magic revolution and will completely change the current social structure.
Excellent mages will have more opportunities to inherit descendants, while declining mages will not get the power to breed descendants. In the end, all the resources in society will move closer to excellent and powerful mages, which is similar to the social form of the ancient magic empire.
Thoughts flowed in everyone's minds, but Baptiste did not stop his speech.
"Not only that, everyone, this new sea wolf has even mastered the ability to speak based on my nurturing of his parents."
"The ability to speak!!"
Jane widened her eyes and looked at Darcy. The dull man was also a little surprised and stared at the existence in the black cloth.
Arimiya gently pinched the corner of Reiner's clothes, and her anxiety was conveyed through her fingertips. Reiner didn't say anything. He gently patted Arimiya's back of his hand, indicating that she didn't need to panic.
"That's right."
Baptist lifted the black cloth and saw a young sea wolf sitting quietly in an iron cage.
"Say hello to everyone."
Baptist said it took some time for the young sea wolf to understand Baptist's words.
Then, it opened its mouth and pieced together a sentence in an ambiguous but clear directional voice.
"Hello......"
Its actions made everyone stand still and unable to speak for a long time.
At this time, Baptist spoke again.
