Act 178. Scarlet Wedding (Part I)
Before Reiner could begin to state his findings, there seemed to be a noise in the distance, causing some turmoil in the entire banquet hall. Elbiore's brow furrowed slightly, and he called the butler to see what was going on, but Reiner quickly stopped him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Albiore, this is just a small movement on the part of my students, and it's just a little ripple compared to what I'm going to explain next."
Reiner said, knowing that the commotion was caused by Dana using the magic he had taught, and that only the spell called Dana's burst magic could cause such destructive power.
After all, this is a burst magic that can be tailored for Dana, which can maximize the use of Dana's huge magic power to cause an explosion, according to Reiner's careful calculations later, in the center of the explosion, the power of this spell is almost equivalent to the three-ring spell, and this is only based on the spell level of Dana's apprenticeship.
She's a person who can create a huge explosion even with light, and if all her magic is used purely to detonate it, the power can be imagined.
Pity the obstructor Dana encountered, I am afraid that she will have to lie in the hospital bed for at least several months before she can walk on the ground.
Shaking his head, Reiner looked at the pure-blood mages present, these mages stared at him with very sharp eyes, like sharp knives, but Reiner was the one who had published a paper in front of seven legendary mages at the Ernest conference, and he couldn't even beat his heart faster in the face of a few pure-blood sects.
Reiner paused, then continued.
"Everyone, I'm here to share with you the secrets of the bloodline."
The Secret of the Bloodline!?
The heads of several families widened their eyes slightly, in their opinion, the secret of the bloodline is the secret of the pure-blood faction, although in the past, some unsuccessful pure-blood families declined, and their family secrets were obtained by the Magic Association, and the power composition of some pure-blood factions was somewhat analyzed, but the most essential bloodline fusion technology is still shrouded in fog, at least, the outside world cannot grasp these.
But now, Reiner. Ian Gray, a one-ring mage, actually claimed to share the secrets of his bloodline with these purebloods???
It's Ta Reiner. Is Ian Grey too arrogant, or are these pureblood mages too backward?
Ignoring the whispered questioning, Reiner continued.
"The first thing I want to discuss about the secret of the bloodline is the pea."
"Peas?"
William didn't know what Reiner was trying to say or why the secret of the bloodline involved Pea, but the High Mage was present, and he had no right to stop Reiner's speech.
"I found that peas have different varieties and external manifestations, and I call these manifestations traits, and I tried to study the differences between these traits and their causes, and from this, I put forward a concept, blood factors, which I think are things that play a decisive role in the inheritance of species, and blood factors are inherited from the previous generation and determine the traits of species."
At the same time, Reiner asked Lord Rockfield to project his relevant papers on the huge white wall on the side of the banquet hall.
"According to my experiments, I found that there is a mutually exclusive relationship between some traits, and at the same time, their performance is also differentiated, such as the tall stem pea and the short stem pea, these two completely different peas are crossed, and their offspring are not both types, but only one type of tall stem pea."
In line with Reiner's words, a statistical chart of the hybridization of purebred tall and short peas was projected on the white wall, much to the surprise of many pure-blood mages present.
Because in common sense, the offspring of two different individuals should have the traits of both, not all of them as in front of them, and the other as if they were hidden.
In the eyes of the bloodline mage, if the pure-blood mage is combined with an ordinary person, the child born may inherit the characteristics of an ordinary person without the characteristics of a pure-blood mage, which is the reason why the pure-blood faction has always intermarried.
But before their surprise subsided, Reiner threw the next shocking result.
"Then, with this batch of high-stemmed peas, the offspring obtained actually appeared short-stemmed peas."
When the page of the results appeared on the white wall, a small exclamation could be clearly heard in the banquet hall.
William's expression was solemn, he was faintly aware of Reiner's intentions, but himself, William was also shocked by Reiner's experiment and did not dare to speak casually.
Greenwald had mixed feelings as he looked at Rockfield, seeking confirmation.
The experiment report was just a word, they didn't come to the scene in person, so naturally there was no chance of verification, so Greenwald thought of Rockfield, a high-level mage who would not be fooled by false data.
"I have personally confirmed the results of this experiment."
Rockfield found himself a chair to sit on, holding a glass of mellow red wine in his hand, as if watching a wonderful play.
His words silenced the pure-blood mages present.
Because from the experiment, the different traits did not disappear completely, but only hidden.
If we really follow Reiner's theory of blood factors, if we can study the nature of these blood factors, then we can screen out the specified shapes and breed the varieties we need.
These traits may be appearances, traits, or magical abilities.
The bloodline fusion technology of the bloodline mage has long been used to fuse the bloodline of magical creatures with humans to generate power, and after hundreds of years of hard work, it is finally possible to obtain a bloodline that can be stably inherited.
But according to Reiner's research, the bloodline fusion technology that the pureblood faction is proud of, seems to be too inefficient?
"I have also verified that some of the different traits will be inherited independently of each other, and some will be linked, and as long enough time to study, I believe that it will not be difficult to completely decipher the genetic characteristics of peas, and at that time, we will have complete control over the traits of peas."
Reiner said, looking at the crowd.
A man who took a step forward, the head of House Joestar and a radical among the purebloods, looked at the pea experiment report on the white wall, and then asked in a questioning tone.
"Reiner. Ian Gray, your research is just based on pea research, even if there is any law, it is only the law of peas, but we are human beings, we are mages, do you want to tell us that human beings and peas are the same? ”
His words elicited the approval of many, and all looked at Reiner as if they wanted to see his embarrassed appearance.
Humans and peas can't be the same species no matter how you look at them, and Reiner's theory seems to have a huge hole.
However, when Rockfield looked at Reiner, the headmaster smiled.
"I can prove it."
