Professor Chris observed the utensils on the table shelf.
Compared with science that requires long research, the occult alchemy that strengthens oneself has greater advantages.
Although the disadvantages are also greater.
"Narrow view. Science is not a discipline, it is systematic knowledge. Occultism can be science, and alchemy is also science." The old man retorted crazily.
"So this is why you are here, so this is why we are here." Professor Chris had no intention of arguing with him about what science is. She tilted her head and said to Lu Li: "My dear, tell him what you discovered.
"
Lu Li briefly described his knowledge about human nature.
"New discoveries... I like new discoveries." The old scientist fell into thinking to himself. "Let me think about how to verify its existence..."
"We've actually proven that it exists."
Sterling froze at Professor Chris's addition: "So what do you want from me?"
"More detailed tests." Professor Chris said.
"Can't your college do this?" Knowing that the most delicious part of the cake had been eaten, Sterling didn't want to eat the rest.
"Okay." Professor Chris replied.
The cave with fluorescent lights everywhere fell into silence for a moment. The tough and crazy old scientist silently accepted Professor Chris's help, picked up his notes and quill, and turned to a blank page: "Exorcist, tell me more about human nature.
.”
Theory needs practical assistance. After scientist Sterling knew that Lu Li could gain humanity from the monsters he killed, he brought two cages containing powerful monsters from the depths of the cave.
"Rolling ball, the best experimental creature."
Sterling signaled Lu Li to kill one of them.
There was nothing abnormal about the weird death process. After a weak humanity poured into his body, Sterling asked them to wait for him here and returned to the depths of the cave.
Sterling's mind seemed a little crazy when he entered the experiment.
"Scientists are not excluded because of their theories..."
Watching Sterling's back as he dived deep into the cave, Professor Chris whispered to Lu Li: "When knowledge becomes a curse, formulaic knowledge is extremely dangerous...Compared with the data of 0.01 ml, 0.02 pounds, and 0.03 centimeters, it is about three points
One scale, half full wooden bowl, and left grass juice for a few days. Although these steps are less efficient, they will not cause unnecessary danger."
“So the more specific the knowledge, the more dangerous it is?”
"Yes...so don't expect to have too much knowledge."
Lu Li thought that maybe this curse on knowledge was also a disaster.
Chaotic footsteps and friction sounds were heard from the depths, and Sterling came back carrying a heavy iron cage.
The coffin-sized cage contains more rolling balls, their semi-soft black carapace wrapping their bodies and locked in the iron cage.
Sterling picked up the two dead rolling balls and threw them into the cage. The surviving rolling balls sensed food and spread out their bodies. The cilia under the carapace slowly wriggled like starfish and climbed up the dead rolling balls.
There are two rolling ball corpses, one of which is full of rolling balls, and there are latecomers trying to climb up. The other one is ignored.
"It's not fresh anymore."
Sterling's eyes almost sparkled under his drooped eyelids: "'Human nature', right? Because this one's 'human nature' was absorbed by Mr. Lu Li, they are no longer interested!"
"Are you sure?" Professor Chris watched this scene with interest.
To prove his analysis, Sterling picked up another rolling ball, killed it with an executioner's swiftness, and threw it into the corner of the cage.
The remaining two rolling balls that were not packed with food slowly wriggled away and climbed onto the new food.
Only the body of the rolling ball that Lu Li killed was ignored.
"You see, they prefer food that has not been dehumanized." Lu Li could feel Sterling's excitement lying in front of the cage: "Weird predation does not require flesh and blood... but human nature!"
"We have already speculated about this." Professor Chris sighed softly: "There is no reason for many of the monsters' behaviors. For example, monsters without entities will also hunt monsters, and powerful monsters still need to eat... We are always thinking about attracting them.
What is it... Now it seems we have found the source."
"Congratulations, Sterling. Your name will appear in the latest issue of the Giant Tree Academy journal."
Sterling paid no attention to Professor Chris's words. He was immersed in the joy brought by science and stared at Lu Li fervently: "This is an unfamiliar field... and you! Exorcist! You will become the key to this field!"
The experiment continued, Sterling took out the corpses of two rolling balls. The other rolling balls that were fading paused briefly, and then squirmed towards the rolling ball that Lu Li had killed.
"What does this mean?" Professor Chris asked.
"The corpses are still attracting them." Sterling's madness was suppressed by thinking: "Maybe it's food, maybe it's the remaining humanity..."
A new hypothesis can even be extended from this: Human beings need food to maintain life. But what if what we need is not the food itself, but the humanity that food possesses...
"Maybe there's no conflict."
Before Sterling complicated the problem and drove himself crazy, Professor Chris woke him up: "We can understand human nature as energy. Humans eat to replenish energy, and weird prey replenish energy."
"My dear, how much humanity did that resentful spirit bring to you?" Professor Chris asked.
"Less than half."
"Where's the rolling ball?"
"negligible."
The experiment will continue, but the scale of [Sterling House] is obviously unable to promote follow-up research.
More detailed data, changes in low and high humanity, and completed puzzle pieces.
"I can get you into Giant Tree Academy...but in the name of alchemy materials."
"I don't care!" Sterling was full of enthusiasm, staring at Lu Li like those weird people who covet him.
"Studying human nature" was temporarily put aside, and Professor Chris talked about the next thing: the technology of making psychic guns.
"Psychic gun? Do you need this eliminated homologue?" Sterling was confused.
"Lu Li's power to plunder humanity comes from the psychic gun." Professor Chris said.
"This is impossible!" Sterling denied loudly, but when he saw the calm Lu Li, he was stunned: "Is this true?"
"Um."
"The third flower bloomed, is this impossible?" Professor Chris asked.
"Perhaps... the price is too high. In my memory, there are no more than a dozen psychic guns recorded in the Three Flowers Blooming." Sterling hesitated. As a scholar, if the evidence is enough, he will believe: "What do you do?
Arrived? What was the price for the three flowers? Where is the gun now?"
"Some weirdness, an evil god. It was destroyed. For some reason, the power remains in me."
"So we need your help." Professor Chris paused slightly, covered her mouth and chuckled: "You no longer need to enter the academy as an alchemy material."
