It's a very interesting look. It's not the hunter's observation of wild animals, nor is it cowardice and fear. It's more like examination.
Is this wolf really intelligent?
Lena was silent, watching in the dark.
When the sea wolf showed his ability to use words, the crowd was silent.
Although it can't be admitted that it has the same intelligence as human beings, at least its brain has evolved, at least equal to the intelligence level of six to seven year olds. It can read, write, memorize certain words and express its own ideas.
"This sea wolf is only two years old. In the normal wild environment, this sea wolf has just begun to learn to hunt. In fact, its wisdom is not entirely acquired, but inherited from its parents."
Batiste's words surprised Lena slightly.
Intelligence heredity?
Lena took another look at the sea wolf.
It looks like a child of ordinary human beings. If we continue to give it enough resources to grow up, it may be able to develop human like wisdom.
"The inheritance of parents?"
Agnes chewed the word. According to the theory of blood heredity, the traits that can be stably inherited are likely to remain, while the scars that are accidentally left in the process of growth may not be inherited.
If this theory is applied to the evolution of species, it is easy to get a conclusion that the evolution that can be stably inherited can make the evolution of species, while the individual changes may not be able to feed back to the evolution of species.
If the product under the theory of advance, discard and retreat can be inherited stably, then the persuasiveness of this theory will be greatly improved!
"Can we see its parents?"
Emilia said that she had been in a state of thinking, with a myriad of thoughts in her mind, but she was still not clear.
"Of course."
Batiste smiles and seems to have made up his mind. He takes the magic team to the next room. Here, two sea wolves are also locked in the cage. Compared with the previous one, these two are obviously more mature. According to the introduction, they are all four years old and in their prime. One is jack, the other is rose.
They also showed a similar ability to read and write, and they were more proficient than Lal, and even mastered some jokes.
In the words, the two Sea Wolves also expressed their yearning for their children, which made people gape.
"Ladies and gentlemen, as I said, if a species exercises its own ability for a long time, the corresponding ability will continue to evolve. This kind of evolution can be passed on to the next generation, and ultimately contribute to the evolution of the species itself. This is the use of advance, discard retreat, and this is my theory on the evolution of species."
Batiste's conclusion makes people speechless, because what they see is really incredible, beyond the limit of cognition. According to this theory, human beings can easily train more intelligent creatures.
Even according to this way of thinking, targeted training of certain abilities can make future generations inherit.
What a great undertaking it would be to shorten the evolutionary path that nature took thousands of years to reach to the level that can be achieved by generations!
"In fact, all these studies are inspired by the treatment of Osborne Kara's disease, which is difficult to treat with drugs. How long it can survive depends on everyone's constitution."
Batiste said.
"I collected data and investigated the parents of all the children with Osborne Kara's disease in my place and in the records. I found that if the parents are strong, the children are more likely to be affected by the disease, and they can live longer. This is not an example. In fact, it is very easy to understand."
He was a little dejected, and then continued to speak.
"Therefore, I'm thinking about whether different people's constitutions can be improved in some way, and whether this improvement can be passed down by blood. If this theory is established, then we can find the traits that can resist Osborne Kala's disease, so that people can evolve towards this trait and finally completely resist the invasion of this disease, just like smallpox."
Smallpox in this world has been cured for a long time, and it is often mentioned in almost all books related to the necromancer system as an example of mankind's victory over disease.
This is the coping strategy that Batiste came up with. Through human active evolution, he can be immune to some diseases and pass this characteristic on to the next generation.
Lainer did not speak, because the human body's immune system is actually divided into innate immunity and acquired immunity. Innate immunity has no pertinence and specificity. It will resist all diseases, but it may not be able to be cured successfully.
Acquired immunity produces antibodies by contacting antigens, just like the defense mechanism of smallpox and chickenpox. This kind of immunity has a strong curative effect for specific diseases, but it is completely ineffective for other diseases. At the same time, acquired immunity is not hereditary.
Maybe some mothers' antibodies will be left to their babies through production, and protect them from external diseases during the first period of their life, but this does not prevent more diseases.The main reason why acquired immunity can not be inherited is that the human body has the limit to carry these antibodies, but the evolution speed of bacteria and viruses is very fast. If the acquired immunity is completely inherited, the immune system in the body will be overloaded within a few generations.
Osborne Carla's disease is a congenital disease. In Lena's cognition, it is a disease caused by gene defects, which cannot be cured unless the gene is modified.
But in this world, everything is possible. If Batiste can really prove that with the theory of advance, Abolishment and retreat, the possibility of greater evolution of human beings in a short period of time will increase a lot, and he may be able to resist Osborne Kara's disease.
Batiste looked at Lena and saw that the mage didn't say a word. He smiled as if he had won.
"In the next few days, I will ask my students to take you on the investigation. There are about 15 species in this institute, and the habitats of several species can be observed in an area outside the Institute. I will cooperate with you to provide any information you want."
He said, making Agnes and Edgar nod slightly.
After today's investigation, in fact, the purpose of their group has almost reached. Even if Agnes and others observe here for a week, they can't compare with Batiste's observation for ten years. Unless there is something unexpected, no one can refute Batiste's conclusion.
Agnes did not care. Edgar had not been interested in it. It would be better to finish it as soon as possible.
Emilia glanced at Lena. She felt that there was something wrong in it, but she couldn't say it again for a moment. This kind of thought was stuck in her chest and could not be released.
Lena didn't speak. He had a bold idea in his heart.
