How many years has it been since someone talked to me like this?
Old man Sun was almost angered to death by Song Yu's words!
Especially the little girl in front of him, whose face practically said - 'What are you looking at?! A level 0 beast can defeat an average adult male, and you, an old man, are physically inferior to an average adult male, so why are you so arrogant?'
Although the other party didn't say this, Old Man Sun could tell the meaning from the other party's rich facial expressions.
Old Man Sun was so angry that he almost blew two puffs of white smoke out of his nose. He is only 84 years old this year, okay?!
Even if his hair is a little gray, he is still 11 years away from the national statutory retirement age!
"What do you know, a kid who didn't even graduate from high school?!"
Old Man Sun was furious. He pointed at Song Yu and cursed, "According to historical records, it's been a full 1,893 years since the first spatial rift appeared on Blue Star! Aside from the initial spatial rift secret realm, and the wilderness forest formed after part of the rift secret realm merged with Blue Star, which caused nearly a hundred years of chaos...Humanity quickly used the method of alien beasts to fight alien beasts, and with absolute superiority, they suppressed the wilderness forest and the rift secret realm!"
"Even according to records in our country's history books, there have been few cases of beast tidal waves attacking cities in at least the past 800 years! Those beast tidal waves were wiped out by the army stationed near the wilderness forest before they even formed. Even if new rift secret realms and wilderness forests appear on Blue Star every year, they pose no threat to humans!"
"This situation of absolute human superiority still exists today. But this does not mean that it will still exist in another one or two thousand years!"
"The beast tidal wave that erupted in the north a hundred years ago, which wiped out one-third of Qin Province, is enough to show that humanity's dominance has been gradually declining over the years!"
Old Man Sun's voice was extremely stern, and the mention of the great beast tide a hundred years ago immediately drew everyone's attention from Song Yu to Old Man Sun, who was already silent.
Zhou Tao and the others even thought carefully about the number of large and small beast tidal waves that had attacked cities in the country over the years...
One, two, three, four, five...
Someone counted carefully on their fingers and found that although there were very few cases of strange beasts attacking cities in the country, most of the time, just like a thousand years ago, the beast tides had not had time to rush into the city before they were eliminated by the army and professional beastmasters at the entrance and exit of the secret realm, near the safety line of the wilderness forest.
But in the past 10 years, there have been 5 large and small sieges in the country...
The most recent and largest one was the beast tide attack on the third-level city of Jinhe in the winter of the previous year.
Although among domestic cities, the population of third-tier cities is only tens of millions, they are small cities with relatively small populations.
However, strange beasts suddenly broke out in the two wilderness forest areas next to Jinhe City, and chaos also broke out in the three-star secret realm guarded outside the suburbs of Jinhe City. Under the attack from three sides, a quarter of Jinhe City was directly occupied in just one day.
Countless residents of Jinhe City could only hide in underground disaster prevention areas and various subway tunnels.
Fortunately, professional beastmasters from three neighboring second-tier cities, one first-tier city, and one super-first-tier city arrived quickly with the help of space-type contracted beasts and flying-type contracted beasts, and directly suppressed the beast tide the next day.
Seeing everyone's thoughtful expressions, Old Man Sun nodded in satisfaction and continued, "It's because the research institute has discovered that over the years, humans' advantages have become increasingly smaller, and the number of beast sieges has increased... That's why we're collecting various data and investigating the underlying reasons."
"But in comparing survey data over the years, the research institute has gradually discovered that the contracted beasts bred at the Exotic Beast Base are gradually becoming weaker than similar Exotic Beasts in the wilderness area, at the same level. In recent years, their strength has declined even more dramatically!" Old Man Sun said angrily with a serious expression, "Even some contracted beasts are experiencing bloodline degeneration!"
"Some contracted beasts of the same type and level are weaker than the exotic beasts in the wilderness. We can say that this is due to insufficient training and the degeneration of wildness, which has led to a decrease in combat effectiveness."
"But bloodline degradation is different!"
"If you've studied biology, you should know that the dinosaurs that once appeared in the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods were the absolute overlords of the blue planet! But those broiler chickens that can be easily served on the table today are the descendants of these dinosaurs!"
"I simply cannot imagine what we humans would do if these contracted beasts degenerated to the level of broiler chickens and ducks?!"
Old Man Sun spoke sternly, his slightly cloudy eyes sweeping across the teachers present. He said solemnly, "We originally thought that this was due to poor operation at some breeding bases and a lack of biological awareness, leading to the degeneration of exotic beasts bred with inbred bloodlines... But after years of research and data analysis, we discovered that after only a few generations of exotic beasts contracted with humans, they would experience various degeneration symptoms!"
"The lower the bloodline level of a contracted beast, the faster it degenerates! The more obvious it is!" Old Man Sun fixed his sharp gaze on Qiuqiu. "Take this Snow Spirit Cat for example. A hundred years ago, there were still hundreds of Level 3 Snow Spirit Cats registered each year, but now the number has dropped by a full quarter!"
"If the Exotic Beast Research Institute hadn't put so much effort into re-registering and organizing the previously paper-based information and entering it into computers over the years, we wouldn't have noticed such obvious changes!"
The development speed of electronic computers on Blue Star is not much different from that on Earth. The first computer only appeared in the past hundred years, and its popularization across the country has only happened in the last few decades.
If their Exotic Beast Research Institute had not started using computers to enter data in recent years, they would not even have been able to discover that the situation a hundred years ago was so different from now.
After all, no one would always look through paper materials from a hundred years ago.
Old Man Sun stared at Song Yu with a blazing gaze, his aura powerful as he spoke, "So, in this situation, is it really necessary to spend a lot of time researching and breeding low-level bloodline beasts like the Snow Spirit Cat?"
Old man Sun talked a lot.
But in essence, it can be summed up in one sentence - there is no point in breeding and researching low-level bloodline beasts!
The combat effectiveness of low-level bloodline beasts is not as good as that of high-level bloodline beasts, and they degenerate faster than high-level bloodline beasts. They also require a large amount of natural treasures to improve - even if your snow spirit cat is a mutant and stronger than an ordinary snow spirit cat, it is meaningless!
Inside the office.
Zhou Tao and many other teachers frowned.
Although in recent years, society has often called on everyone to treat contracted animals as their real friends and family, in most cases - it is normal not to do so.
“Woo~…”
Upon hearing this, Qiuqiu lowered his head lower and his ears, which had been standing up high, drooped down.
Its back was stiff, and its body was crouching down, almost curling up into a ball...
Possessing the gift of seeing the future.
Qiuqiu had seen many people smiling at it on the surface, but once they signed the contract, they would forget about it when they found that it could not advance. Some would even lock it up in the beast taming space until it starved to death.
The energy in the Beast Taming Space can accelerate the evolution of the contracted beast, but this does not mean that the contracted beast does not need to eat.
No matter how high the level of the Beast Taming Space is, if a contracted beast stays in it for a long time, it will still starve to the point of being skin and bones, and eventually die in the Beast Taming Space. However, the length of this process is often determined by the amount of original energy in the Beast Taming Space...
In the dark and silent space, there was no sunlight and no grass, only the skinny creature lying on the dark ground.
Thinking of all the bad futures he had seen before... the kitten instinctively moved closer to Song Yu, with its big tail helplessly wrapped around Song Yu's feet.
Song Yu looked down with a frown on her face. She raised her hand and stroked Qiuqiu's head, not afraid of offending Professor Sun.
Song Yu said seriously, "Professor Sun, although I'm not a researcher of exotic animals, I think you're wrong."
"If we are abandoned simply because of our low bloodline level and lack of potential, then what's the difference between us and those wild beasts who abandon the weakest cubs in their dens during food shortages? And what's the difference between us and primitive people?"
"The progress of social civilization and the establishment of a nation are all about protecting everyone's safety and ensuring that everyone has clothes to wear and food to eat... If we give up one thing today and that thing tomorrow, is there any need for such a nation to exist?"
Song Yu said seriously: "Contracted beasts help us fight and assist us in our work. They are part of this country!"
"So the contracted beasts are not our tools, they are our companions and friends!"
Song Yu hugged Qiuqiu's big head and held him in his arms, saying domineeringly: "Compared to your theory of bloodline, I believe more in hard work and bond, which can make the contractor and the contracted beast grow faster!"
Although the novel is written from the perspective of the male protagonist, it never mentions the degeneration of the alien beast, which surprised Song Yu.
But as she said, no matter the level of the alien beast's bloodline, since they have signed a contract with each other, they are a family!
Since we are family, how can we abandon each other just because of the low blood level?
If this is the case, then the contractor might as well not sign the contract in the first place!
After Song Yu said this, he kissed Qiuqiu on the big head!
If her kitten wasn't so big, she could perform a bald-kissing trick on the spot to show her love for the kitten.
The soft red lips were imprinted on the forehead. Although Qiuqiu was covered with white hair all over his body, he could not feel any softness at all.
But those lips seemed to have their own scorching temperature, which instantly made Qiuqiu shiver in her heart...
The Snow Cat's face flushed instantly. If it weren't for its long, white fur covering its entire body... Qiuqiu would have suspected she was already red as a boiled tomato from embarrassment. Even with the fur covering her face, Qiuqiu could still feel her heartbeat quickening. "Boom, boom, boom!" The scalding blood flowed through her rapidly beating heart to her limbs, with a large amount of blood rushing directly to her head...
suddenly!
Just when Old Man Sun swung his sleeves and said that he wanted to see how far Song Yu and Qiuqiu could go in the future...
A burst of intense white light suddenly burst out from Qiuqiu's body!
Buzz! !——
The strong energy fluctuations caused the air to hum briefly. Everyone in the room subconsciously opened their eyes wide and looked at the ball. Old man Sun was especially surprised, and his jaw almost dropped!
"Advance, evolve?! Is this the evolution from level 2 to level 3?" No one knew who was murmured in the room.
The ball in the white light expanded again, especially at the place where the two tails originally were. A beam of white energy light condensed into an 'S' shape. After the white light flashed, another snow-white tail condensed and grew!
"Three, three-tailed snow spirit cat?" Zhou Tao stuttered, his mind a little broken. Wasn't it said that low-level bloodlines were difficult to evolve? How could it evolve to level 3 in just three months?! Remember, he's already in his forties, and his main battle pet is only at level 2 intermediate this year!
