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

Puff returned to her workstation with a cup of strong coffee in hand and humming a cheerful tune.

To the right of her workstation is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, outside of which is a high-rise building with glass curtain walls.

The sun is setting, and the arc of dusk shines on the skyline, dyeing the sky with a mesmerizing light-colored layer. They are the beautiful symbols of this city.

If you look further away, you can see a winding river running through the middle of the city, dividing the ancient buildings and modern high-rise buildings.

At dusk, the lights on the buildings on both sides of the river were lit up one after another, and the light show of the high-rise building next door lit up with the subtitles of "Happy New Year, Yan Country".

After seeing this, Puff was stunned.

It turned out to be New Year's Day.

She is a Yan national living in a foreign country, and suddenly she misses her hometown.

I don’t know what’s happening in the scientific research community in my hometown.

She lives in Jingdu of the Wuji Empire and works as an editor for the top international journal "Pet Science".

Occasionally, we receive manuscripts from researchers from Yan Country in the manuscript box.

Unfortunately, not many manuscripts can pass the initial review.

The development of Yan's scientific research community seems to have entered a slow lane, with no breakthrough results in recent years.

Basically, they are all circling around the original evolutionary route and researching more evolutionary formula alternatives.

In fact, this problem is not unique to Yan State.

The scientific research circles of other empires also entered a bottleneck period, and the results stagnated for a time.

It is the New Year in Yan Country, and now is the time to slack off before getting off work, so I might as well take a look at the atmosphere of the scientific research community in my hometown.

She opened Chonghu and switched the regional section to Yan Country.

The familiar Yan country characters came into view, and the posts pushed on the homepage were lined up one by one, including food sharing, travel sharing, and sharing posts about returning from battles in space rifts.

The quality of the posts was not high, most of them were just for filling up space and killing time, but they made her feel particularly close to them.

It was also at this time that Lu Yuan’s post caught her sight.

“College students created their own evolution formula?” she murmured.

It sounds like something.

Different from Song Damou's preconceived doubts about Lu Yuan.

Puff works for a top publication and has met countless young and talented beastmasters, so she has a more open-minded perspective on things.

Young people may not be unable to create their own recipes.

At least in her opinion, there are indeed a few little geniuses who create their own recipes.

So, with an attitude that was half curious and half to kill time, she clicked on Lu Yuan's post and continued reading.

“It turns out to be a formula for atavistic evolution, using the two-star Tumbleweed Mantismon as the entry point. It’s quite a sharp vision.

"Judging from the various aspects of Tumbleweed Mantis's performance, it should not be just a two-star beast. It obviously has room for development. However, there are very few high-star beastmasters who study low-star pets. The anonymous student who asked the question has found a good entry point."

Puff is the editor of a top international magazine, so she must have a good vision, and she is also a seven-star beastmaster.

She knows a lot about the habits of pets, especially Zerg pets, which she has studied in depth.

She herself also has a seven-star Zerg pet. Twenty years ago, she guided students in cultivating Tumbleweed Mantis Beasts and conducted research on their evolution from level two to level three.

Unfortunately, her students were not successful.

But even if that project fails, she still believes that the potential of Tumbleweed Mantis has not been fully tapped.

Now she had come across a post from a netizen from Yan Country by chance. Even if it was just the work of a senior student, she wanted to see how far he had progressed in his research and whether his ideas were different from hers.

When she saw the content of the second part of the exercise method, she quickly read through the hundreds of words, did a mental test, and immediately knew which muscle the other party wanted to exercise.

“The exercise method is just a new one?

“But if it’s just a transition from grade 2 to grade 3, there’s nothing wrong with this idea.

"For the core muscles, there's probably only a few percent deviation..."

When Puff saw this, she thought about the small projects that had failed in the past and compared the two.

This time, she felt the difference.

Her idea is to change the muscle training parts so that the tumbleweed's short muscles can be trained.

But Lu Yuan's method is more like the thinking of the ancients. The thinking inherits the thinking of the Two Star period and continues to exercise the original muscle parts.

Then she came to the recipe section.

“This recipe…”

Even though Lu Yuan's prescription did not include the names of the drugs, she could think of more than twenty corresponding drugs in her mind just by looking at the drug properties.

When the drugs are organically combined, their medicinal properties do not conflict with each other, but instead restrain each other, achieving a delicate balance.

Of course, this is just a mental test. To know for sure whether there is any problem, you need to adjust it yourself.

"Not bad, it's quite interesting."

"It's just..." Puff frowned, feeling that the recipe was strange.

With regard to auxiliary medicines, there were omissions in the preparation of medicinal properties.

The excipient drugs she thought of were not perfect in their formulation and lacked certain key drugs.

Obviously, this netizen is hiding something.

But it doesn't matter, she is not copying other people's things, she is just looking at them out of curiosity.

Another thing is that the medicine used by Lu Yuan is also a bit strange.

Atavistic evolution generally prefers to use unconventional medicines. For example, most of the medicines that have survived from ancient times to the present day are difficult to produce, and therefore they are very unconventional.

On the contrary, the medicines used by Lu Yuan are relatively normal medicines on the market and are not expensive.

The second strange thing is the order in which the drugs are taken. Evolution's thinking is very strange.

“Taking the medicine in this order would over-stimulate Mantismon’s core leg muscles, exceeding the endurance limit of a two-star Mantismon’s body.

“But the auxiliary medicines contain a large amount of soothing substances and drugs that prolong life and blood. In fact, if the mantis beast is two to three years old at the age of one, it does not need blood supplements at all.

"But the overall logic of this evolutionary medicine is correct. If the auxiliary medicine was not inferior, it would almost form a perfect closed loop of neutralizing the medicinal properties."

"Sure enough...he already has the complete formula, but he's deliberately hiding his shortcomings with the auxiliary medicine."

Puff went back and glanced at the evolution formula.

The more I read, the more I feel that the method of using medicine is very similar to the ancients' thinking on evolutionary medicine.

During the evolution process, you should focus on the Zerg pet's qi and blood, and at the same time, make breakthroughs in its specialized parts and concentrate resources to improve its quality of life.

Thinking of this, she thought of the stagnation of cutting-edge development in the top scientific research circles of various countries today, and the change in the research direction of researchers.

When the road ahead runs out, just refurbish the things left by our ancestors.

Most people are trying to enter this field, but there are very few teams that can produce results.

After all, the concept of scientific cultivation has been developed for thousands of years, and the historical materials that can be updated within a thousand years have already been studied by people, and there will be no lost materials.

Now everyone is hoping to open new archaeological pits and find new ancient pet fossils.

Puff is not optimistic about everyone's direction.

She believes that the current stagnation in scientific research is due to a lack of fresh blood, and that thinking is rigid and not flexible enough.

If this generation of Beast Tamers is not good enough, then we should invest the future in the new generation of Beast Tamers. Like this young man, he has a good idea. I’ll follow him and wait for the subsequent experimental results.
