On the playground, Mu Feng and his classmates formed a circle, looking at the teacher standing in the center.
At this time, there was an iron cage half a meter high on the left side of the teacher. Inside was a jade-colored creature that looked like a pig. The most obvious feature was a small jade-colored vine growing on its back.
In the spirit beast illustrated book, the name of this pig-like creature is "Lingluo Pig".
Although it is a spiritual beast, the Lingluo Pig is one of the lowest spiritual beasts among the spiritual beast species.
Its main purpose is for food. It is characterized by its strong reproductive ability. It can give birth to 12-48 babies at a time. It will be abandoned after four generations.
Mu Feng was very familiar with the Lingluo Pig.
His father opened a spiritual food restaurant in Star City, and spiritual pig was one of the main dishes.
Compared with other spiritual foods, Lingluo pig is characterized by its relatively low price and delicious meat, making it a delicacy that far exceeds ordinary meat.
Long-term consumption of Lingluo pig can nourish the body, enhance physical fitness, and also has certain effects on longevity.
His father would buy about ten such spiritual pigs every month from the spiritual animal breeding management department, and slaughter one about every three days.
At this time, the teacher was standing next to the iron cage, pointing at the Lingluo Pig in the iron cage who was introducing it.
From the eating habits of Lingluo pigs to the meat-to-feed ratio of Lingluo pigs, and then the changes in life characteristics and adaptability to different environments.
These are all knowledge closely related to their profession of spiritual animal breeding.
After all, the process of raising spirit beasts is not just as simple as feeding food, but also requires mastering various corresponding knowledge, including the reproduction of spirit beasts, which also requires their supervision and execution.
Looking at the teacher who was talking endlessly, Mu Feng's eyes turned to the spiritual pig in the iron cage.
A doubt suddenly appeared in my mind.
If the Lingluo pig undergoes atavistic evolution in its bloodline, what kind of morphological changes will occur? What kind of natural abilities will it gain?
According to the relevant information he learned, the ultimate direction of the evolution of spiritual beasts is the spiritual ancestor, but there are countless possibilities on the way to evolution.
The reproduction and reproduction of spirit beasts is a process of continuous degradation in the simulation.
The spiritual ancestor's differentiation into different spiritual beasts is the first step. The reproduction of the first generation of spiritual beasts has degraded the potential of the bloodline again, and the growth potential will be weakened with each generation.
For example, the digger who unexpectedly appears to be atavistic has a high probability that its ancestor is the spiritual beast life form called the Blade in the data model.
Therefore, no matter what kind of spiritual beast it is, if viewed according to the theoretical basis of atavistic evolution, it has infinite potential for growth.
As long as the problem of how to restore the bloodline of spirit beasts to their ancestors can be solved, humans can also create potential spirit beasts in batches like spirit beast merchants, and can even go to Destiny City to compete with spirit beast merchants for business.
This is only a superficial benefit.
Assuming that the existing theory is the truth, it stands to reason that ordinary spiritual beasts can also evolve back to their ancestors and become spiritual ancestors.
But it is only a theoretical speculation. Obviously there are many unsolvable problems in the atavistic evolution. Otherwise, the spirit beast merchants would need to sell spirit beasts to obtain resources. With spirit beasts at the spirit ancestor level, the spirit beast merchants are located in
It is difficult for a tribe to be strong even if it is not strong.
There are bound to be many unknown problems that need to be solved, and spirit beast merchants are only on the road to developing spirit beasts, and they are far from the end.
At this stage, Star City has only relied on theory to establish its current system of spiritual beastology.
As for whether this system can support the progress of human spiritual beastology, it is still in the exploratory stage.
Mu Feng consulted the relevant information and found that the bloodline atavism on the digger was difficult to copy in batches. Even if the return stone that the digger accidentally came into contact with was used, the probability of the digger being inspired to evolve its bloodline atavism was only 10
%about.
How to initiate the atavistic evolution of spirit beasts is still the biggest problem that troubles spirit beast scholars.
Although Mu Feng was curious about how to take the path of reversion to his ancestors, he was only curious. He knew how much he weighed, and this path was destined to have nothing to do with him.
Whether the answer will be revealed in this lifetime is also unknown.
He put aside his thoughts and began to listen to the teacher carefully.
The visit to Dawn Academy made his views on spiritual beastology slightly change.
But there will be no changes in the future. He studies hard so that he can do his job well after graduation.
I don’t want to be successful in this industry or be recorded in history, I just want to have no problems at work and spend my life peacefully.
As for the issue of getting a wife and having children, he is not worried at all.
Although after the fall of Ji He, the former leader of Star City, many policies were overturned and changed. For example, the policy of matching adults after they were originally formulated was banned because of anti-morality.
But this is only a formal ban. In fact, the system is still operating.
When Ji He was still there, he proposed a population reproduction plan and set up a matching department in order to increase the population of Star City rapidly.
Now this department has not disappeared, it has just changed its name and continues to exist, now called the Marriage Department.
The way of pairing becomes softer.
When Ji He was here, there were mandatory requirements for matching, and you had to find a partner within a specified age group. If you didn't find a partner, they would be forced to find one for you, and there were also regulations on the number of children.
Now the compulsory regulations have been cancelled, and the mode of marriage matching has been changed.
At the age of 24, personal profile information will be entered into the system of the Marriage Department, and objects in the system will be automatically matched through personal resumes, contributions, and other indicators. Then the Marriage Department will take the initiative to contact the matched parties, hoping that both parties can
Try to get along.
If you are not satisfied after meeting and getting along, the matching will be canceled and the system will continue with a new round of matching.
As long as you meet the age limit, the Marriage Department will try its best to help you solve your partner's problems.
But there are exceptions.
For those special industries, you can apply to extend the matching age.
For example, scientific researchers at top research institutes or special talents in other important positions have more power to make decisions independently.
After all, their jobs are quite special and require them to spend a lot of time at work.
For these special talents, Star City generally recommends the principle of proximity.
For example, for the scientific researchers at Hupo Research Institute, their superiors will find ways to bring together internal staff.
This is done for job stability.
After all, the staff of Hupo Research Institute do not go home all year round, which can easily lead to family conflicts. If the other half is an employee in the same position, many family problems can be reduced.
Another special case is that if you can find a partner on your own after meeting the age requirement and register for marriage, you do not need to participate in matching.
With the development of Star City in recent years, many development plans have changed.
It seems that most of Jihe's policies have been overturned, but in fact they just continue to exist in another way.
Therefore, Mu Feng is not worried at all that he will not be able to succeed, and Xingcheng will help him solve his other half's problems.
The only thing he needs to worry about is how to handle affairs at his workplace and avoid crises that will affect the rest of his life.
At the end of the class, Mu Feng and other students followed the teacher back to the classroom.
A new course has started, and this time they are going to learn about the postpartum care of spiritual animals.
In the future, during the work of the breeding farm, if there is a problem with the breeding of spirit animals, spirit animal scholars will come to solve it, but the maintenance work after the breeding is completed will need to be solved by them personally.
Mu Feng didn't want to attend this class at all.
But thinking that his father is just a son like him and waiting for him to continue the family line, he can only bite the bullet and watch the relevant videos and listen to the teacher's detailed explanation of the nursing work.
The business of breeding spiritual animals does not feel like work to Mu Feng, but more like taking care of his ancestors.
…
Time flies.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and Mu Feng was already 21 years old.
Graduation season has arrived as scheduled, and my four-year career in a smart school has come to an end.
On the day of the graduation ceremony, Mu Feng put on his graduation uniform and stood on the playground with a group of friends. He looked at the graduation stage in the distance and was filled with emotions.
Although I have been verbally cursing for four years, I have still gained a lot in these four years.
Suddenly they were about to say goodbye, and there was a trace of reluctance in his heart.
Smart universities are indeed terrible, with dilapidated infrastructure, terrible restaurant food, lagging industry knowledge, and even teaching quality... In many fields, smart universities cannot compare with other universities in Star City.
But after living here for four years, Mu Feng still has feelings for this place.
There are a group of friends who accompany him every step of the way, as well as teachers who have grown from strangers to familiar friends. After being here for a long time, he knows exactly how many steps it takes to walk from the dormitory to the restaurant.
Especially those friends who don't like to study.
Although they are not serious in their studies, they can always bring them happiness in life.
In the past four years, they have stolen fruits planted by the principal, cheated on exams together, and done countless stupid things that are funny in retrospect.
"Brother Feng, why are you looking so sad? Are you worried about which breeding farm you will be assigned to after graduation?"
At this time, a fat man wearing glasses came to Mu Feng, slapped him on the shoulder and grinned.
Facing the inquiry, Mu Feng couldn't help but rolled his eyes:
"If it was four years ago, I would still be worried about this problem. No matter where I am assigned now, I am confident that I can do the assigned task well. Do you understand the value of being a top student?"
"Academic master? Damn, if you were so good, why didn't you go to Star City Academy or Daybreak Academy? Are you able to hang out here with us? You are just the taller one among us dwarfs, so you are nothing.
Xueba, if you have the ability, you can apply for the Hupo Research Institute with your first place in the Wisdom Academy. If you can get in, I will recognize you as a Xueba."
The fat man said with a contemptuous expression, causing his friends nearby to burst into laughter.
Mu Feng couldn't help but laugh too.
This group of friends is really bad at studying, but they get along very well. They never hide their ideas, and it is normal to fight and undermine each other.
Thinking that he might not see this group of friends in the future, Mu Feng felt inexplicably sad.
Star City's development model is destined to require them to invest a lot of time in each position. Except for the construction positions on the front line and Dawn City, the vacation time is generally very short, and the farewell to the school will most likely be permanent.
Their future is like the parts embedded in the development machine of Star City, providing assistance for the operation of Star City.
Perhaps only after retirement will they have time to get together.
"The principal has spoken."
At this time, a reminder came from beside him, and Mu Feng immediately turned his head to look at the graduation stage.
An old Mediterranean man wearing the uniform of a principal walked slowly onto the stage and began to express his best wishes for the future of their graduates.
The graduation ceremony of the Wisdom University is very simple. It is not as grand as that of top universities. There are no celebrities participating, and there is no professional entertainment team on stage to see off. The programs are all rehearsed by the students themselves.
Even the graduation clothes are leftovers from the previous class.
Mu Feng even seriously suspected that the graduation clothes he was wearing had gone through several owners.
The white pattern on the collar proves that this costume has been used for a few years, and perhaps it will be left to the next graduating class to wear after they leave.
As for the graduation gifts of smart universities, they are not like the top universities that give away hundreds of thousands of balance cards and other precious gifts. Each student only received a fruit basket as a graduation gift.
The fruits in the fruit basket are all produced internally by the Smart Academy.
But in the principal's graduation blessing words, Mu Feng saw the principal's sincere expression of emotion. There were no gorgeous words in the principal's words, just like an elder's advice and teachings to children who were preparing to leave home. He did not expect them to have a bright future.
I just hope you don’t get discouraged midway and learn to persevere.
At this moment, Mu Feng felt a strong sense of belonging to Wisdom University.
No matter how bad this place is, it will still be his alma mater.
"I am here to represent the Wisdom University and always welcome you to go home and visit. As long as you come back, my orchard will be open to you at any time. Feel free to eat when the time comes, but don't be sneaky. Don't think that I don't know that you guys used to visit
do what."
When the principal finished speaking, Mu Feng followed and everyone applauded enthusiastically.
Next, Mu Feng and outstanding graduates from other majors took the stage to speak as representatives.
After the process before the party started that night, Mu Feng and other representatives looked at the Fengqi statue in the center of the playground, declaring that they would forge ahead and never give up in the future.
After walking off the graduation stage, Mu Feng sat in his seat, drank fruit wine with his friends, and talked about their farewell.
The evening breeze blew against his cheeks, and Mu Feng was filled with emotions.
"Brother Feng, have you ever thought about your future? Have you ever regretted not studying hard?"
At this time, the fat man sitting next to Mu Feng looked at him with a blushing face and asked.
"Of course I have regretted it. Ever since I entered the Wisdom University, there has not been a day when I have not regretted not studying hard."
Mu Feng admitted his thoughts openly.
"Then will you feel resentful about your future job?" Fatty continued to ask curiously.
"No, Feng Qi once said that no matter what position we are in, we are all contributing our own efforts to the development of Star City. I did feel resentful at the beginning, but four years later, I have already looked away.
Do something and love something."
After saying these words, Mu Feng suddenly found that his friends around him were looking at him with contempt.
Facing everyone's contempt, Mu Feng helplessly shook his head.
He said these words from the bottom of his heart.
He knew that he and the friends around him were just the most ordinary group of people and could not be recorded in the history books of the human race like those historical figures.
But they really existed, but they never left any description in the history books.
Ordinary people are like the foil of the times. They seem to have a long life, but in the long history of humankind, they are just an inconspicuous little wave.
But even so, they are the screws that advance the development of the times and have contributed their own value.
He has been fighting and shouting for the rise of the human race all his life, and now it is finally time to take action, and he is ready.
This is not a compromise with his fate, but a compromise with himself.
As Feng Qi once said:
[As humans, we don’t have many choices. If the world we live in is dark, then try to be a torch that lights up the darkness. Complaining and giving up cannot change the status quo. At least let future generations see the flame of hope you ignite.
】
After sighing with emotion, Mu Feng looked at his friends beside him, his eyes suddenly turned sad.
I don’t know how many of these unmotivated bastards will be imprisoned in the future, and how many of them will step onto the execution ground.
It is said that none of you can play the game today, so I will update it as soon as possible.
