I dreamed of returning to ancient times, and I became a beast tamer

Thanks to the grains of time, more than a month passed in my dream, but in reality it was only the evening of the second day of the Chinese New Year.

Lu Yuan placed orders online one after another to purchase the herbs that made up the catalytic medicine formula of the Tumbleweed Mantis Beast.

Lu Yuan didn't plan to buy the finished product. He planned to bring the herbs into his dream and brew them in his dream.

The main purpose is to compare them with the ancient herbs in the dream. Secondly, the herbs are consumed, but the herbs in reality are still there and can be recycled, killing two birds with one stone.

Although express delivery was slow during the Chinese New Year, Lu Yuan was not in a hurry.

The mantis beasts in the dream are only one star, their training has just begun, and there is still a lot of work to be done.

……

I wrote all night and already it was the third day of the New Year.

Lu Yuan put down his tired hands, looked at the written inheritance document, and clicked save.

"How should I draw a visualization diagram? No, I don't need to draw it myself, and I can't draw the artistic conception myself." Lu Yuan recalled the storm visualization diagram he saw in his dream, and his heart moved.

The whirlwind mantis contemplates the landscape of nature and comprehends the stormy mood of nature.

There are many beast masters in modern times who specialize in making visualization pictures with artistic conception like this. They use their own beast taming talents to record the visions of heaven and earth, carve the artistic conception into the carrier, and then put them on the market for public sale.

Sorted in order of artistic conception, there is no upper limit for the expensive visualization pictures, while the cheap ones are as low as a few hundred yuan.

Originally, visualization maps were not that cheap, but with the development of science and the spread of knowledge on the Internet, more and more beastmasters have learned the beast taming skill of recording artistic conception, and they record the specific skills of their pets together with it.

As more and more people started to make pictures, the price went up, and now it has dropped to several hundred yuan.

Of course, different price ranges correspond to different star-level skills. The visualization diagrams that cost a few hundred yuan are all one-star skill visualization diagrams.

What Lu Yuan wanted was a three-star grade Storm Realm, but the price would be much higher, at least tens of thousands of dollars.

Lu Yuan himself didn't have that much money, he only had a few thousand yuan in savings.

The remaining money in the family is enough for Lu Yuan to do research.

However, Lu Yuan wanted to save as much as possible.

It would be much better if we could get the school’s resources and use the school’s money to do this project.

Lu Yuan remembered what he had talked about with his tutor a few days ago, and immediately logged into his account and asked:

"Teacher, I have already thought of the content for the graduation thesis I told you on New Year's Eve.

"I plan to use the two-star Tumbleweed Mantismon as a template and evolve it back to its ancestral form into the three-star Cyclone Mantismon of ancient times.

"Can I use this topic to apply for start-up funds for my senior year graduation project?"

Longzhou University, where Lu Yuan works, has a graduation project funding program specifically designed to support prospective graduates doing graduation projects, providing start-up funds to get the project going.

Of course, the school does more than just provide start-up capital.

There will be a second and third phase of financial assistance in the future.

However, the follow-up assistance is different from the free assistance for start-up funds. If you want to apply for more financial support later, you will have to rely on competition with your peers for graduation projects.

The top dozen or so project teams in each round will continue to receive funding from the school.

If I can stick with it, this graduation thesis will probably be completed in a few months.

Lu Yuan started late and has not yet decided on a research topic.

Some students start applying for funding to work on their graduation projects at the beginning of their senior year.

Lu Yuan certainly cannot compare with those who started early. What he has to do now is to do everything possible to save money by using the resources at hand.

As for the value of the atavistically evolved Whirlwind Mantis Beast itself, Lu Yuan doesn't think much of it.

In ancient times, there were so many high-star pets that have become extinct, and those are the real treasures.

He didn't want to be a miser and keep his eyes on the evolutionary path in front of him.

What Lu Yuan needs now is to proceed steadily, take the first solid step, and slowly accumulate fame.

As his fame grows, naturally people will invest in him to do experiments, and then he won't need to spend his own money on experiments.

drip.

The tutor's profile picture moved. Lu Yuan glanced at the time on his computer. It was 6:30 in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

"Have you finished writing the design plan? Send it to me for a look."

"Ok!"

Lu Yuan sent over another draft document.

Last night, Lu Yuan not only recorded the inheritance of the Whirlwind Mantis, but also made a draft of his graduation project, copying some content from the inheritance document into it.

It records Lu Yuan's breeding ideas. Based on the original breeding ideas of Tumbleweed Mantis, he added the training program of Whirlwind Mantis and the ancient recipe of Three-Star Whirlwind Mantis.

Of course, the names of the herbs in the ancient prescriptions still need to be replaced by alternative resources, so what Lu Yuan wrote in the draft was the idea of ​​evolving the medicinal properties of the overall formula.

Finding alternative resources requires money.

In addition, in order to keep up with the accelerated progress of time in the dream, Lu Yuan needs to buy a two-star Tumbleweed Mantis Beast in reality and evolve it from level two to level three, which is also a not small expense.

After Lu Yuan sent the document, he knew that the other party would take a long time to read it, so he got up and went to make breakfast for Dabai.

at the same time.

Jiao Jiangfeng cooked porridge on low heat, returned to the bedroom, took out his glasses to look at the computer, opened Lu Yuan's document, and looked through it slowly.

Teacher Jiao felt sorry for his student Lu Yuan. He knew that Lu Yuan liked fighting, but his talent for taming beasts was a burden to him.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan works hard enough and is willing to work hard.

Teacher Jiao will not give up on any student who wants to work hard to make progress.

In Lu Yuan, he seemed to see an unyielding soul, eager to make progress but constantly struggling at the bottom.

As a teacher, I always want to do something to give children hope.

Jiao Jiangfeng urged Lu Yuan for two months, and thought that Lu Yuan had given up on his graduation thesis and would concentrate on training college students.

I didn't expect that the draft proposal of the graduation thesis would be sent to me right now.

Let's take a look.

"A two-star Tumbleweed Mantis regressed and evolved into a three-star Whirlwind Mantis. Where did Whirlwind Mantis know about this?"

Professor Jiao looked through the summary of the paper and did not find any source of the historical data on the whirlwind mantis.

If there is no historical data to support it, isn't it just wishful thinking?

Jiao Jiangfeng frowned and typed a red note next to it: "There is no historical data to support it. Additional evidence is needed."

Then he continued to watch. The general idea was to train the legs, kicking and jumping continuously, and rolling in the air. The longer the rolling time, the better. The muscles trained included...

'The exercise program was pretty standard, nothing new and exciting.'

After Jiao Jiangfeng wrote a line of comments, he didn't want to read on.

In his opinion, the arguments in this draft paper were insufficient, the exercises in the middle were so ordinary, and the core muscles exercised were still the original parts of the tumbleweed mantis beast. It was obviously a watered-down work.

However, because Lu Yuan was his student, he still patiently looked at the evolution formula below.

What catches the eye are rows of descriptions of medicinal properties, but no specific drug names.

It looks like a randomly written combination of medicinal properties, but when arranged according to Lu Yuan's detailed order of taking the medicine, it does not seem to be randomly written.

He is a five-star-level beastmaster who is familiar with the usage of more than 2,000 drug combinations and has a rough idea of ​​the properties of tens of thousands of drugs.

Formula preparation is not a simple matter. It involves a lot of questions, such as whether each drug conflicts with each other or whether they complement each other, which part of the body it stimulates, and how to eliminate the side effects of the drugs.

The formulas made by normal students are often small improvements based on mature formulas in the industry. Even if there are problems with the blending, they are only minor problems.

For example, Lu Yuan’s formula doesn’t even have a drug name, and it’s obvious that it’s a formula imagined in the mind.

But after reading the whole article, the twenty-eight medicinal properties restrain each other and there are no omissions visible to the naked eye.

Let’s look back at the overall formula idea summary written by Lu Yuan: purposefully strengthen the toughness and elasticity of the Tumbleweed Mantis’ waist muscles, and enhance the muscle elasticity of the four legs.

"what?"

Jiao Jiangfeng shifted his gaze back to the blending of the medicinal properties in the formula and discovered that Lu Yuan's formula was indeed aimed at improving vitality in the muscles of these two major areas, and it did not deviate from the topic.

“It seems feasible?”

An unprecedented thought arose in my mind.

Instead of fine-tuning an existing proven recipe, you came up with a completely new recipe?

What a joke, Lu Yuan is just a three-star beastmaster!
