Act 271. New results
Compared with Darwin's original theory of evolution, this theory pays more attention to the group evolution of populations, and there are more interpretations of the overbreeding and survival struggle in the original Darwinian theory of evolution.
Reiner certainly didn't come up with these speculations on the head, he was based on a combination of archaeological discoveries in the Irasmus semiplane and observations of living things, and to be precise, he didn't have any means to directly prove it, so it was just speculation.
After saying his opinion, Reiner did not speak again, but handed over the right to Baptiste.
Baptiste didn't say a word, not knowing whether he was digesting Reiner's theory or thinking about something else, the magic in the air seemed to ripple faintly, but in the end it fell silent.
After a long time, Baptiste bowed slightly.
"Mr. Ian Gray, your idea is very creative, and I think we can have the opportunity to find a place in the next two days, combine the information, and discuss it carefully."
He pondered the words, but it was clear that this was not what Reiner was expecting.
"Mr. Baptiste, I know you value your research, but sometimes it may be more helpful to stop and look at something else."
Reiner said meaningfully.
Baptiste's eyes were full of emotion, and Reiner's words didn't seem to have any effect on him.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ian Gray, but I have a few more experiments ahead."
Pulling his pocket watch out of his pocket, Baptiste said that it looked like he didn't want to discuss the issue with Reiner any longer, or that if the topic went any further, there might be something Baptiste didn't want to see.
Reiner didn't say anything more, and watched Baptiste walk away.
In the afternoon, Reiner did not leave his room, and it was not until late evening that he went downstairs to the dining room for a dinner party.
Everyone remained the same, and everything was as usual.
But Reiner still felt that underneath the calm, an undercurrent was surging.
Towards the end of dinner, Baptiste had his students and the children leave the cafeteria first, and then he stood up with a glass of red wine in his hand.
"Guys, I have something to tell you."
Baptiste said, standing up and speaking in a steady tone.
"I have made a new breakthrough in the theory of species evolution in the past two days."
He glanced at Reiner, then drank the wine from his glass.
"Everyone, please come with me."
Baptiste walked out of the dining room, and the other mages, slightly puzzled, looked at each other, but they all followed Baptiste's footsteps.
"What do you want to show us at this time?"
Jane looked at her teacher with some confusion, but Agnes was interested.
Arimia hesitated, but Reiner tapped her on the shoulder.
"It's fine."
He said this, and it was before Elemia stepped forward.
Edgar and his three students didn't know why, they wanted to go about their business after the meal, but now Baptiste's invitation made them unable to refuse, so they could only follow.
The group came to the fourth floor of the research area, Reiner had never been here, they walked into a dimly lit laboratory, Baptiste turned on the light, only to see that in the slightly empty laboratory, except for a few clean and tidy test benches, there was only a square object, covered with a black cloth.
Reiner had a faint sense that there was something under the black cloth, and he didn't speak, but silently put one thing in Arymia's hand.
"Huh?"
Arimia was a little overwhelmed by Reiner's sudden move, but she caught the thing anyway.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the sea wolf I raised gave birth to a cub in a few weeks, and last night, it opened its eyes, and according to my tests, this cub has evolved far beyond the Jack and Rose you saw before, and their baby Lar."
Baptiste didn't notice Reiner and Elimia's small movements, and he only introduced them to the crowd.
"This newborn sea wolf, although it has only just opened its eyes, is already able to communicate in words like Lal, and its ability to learn quickly is that it has mastered basic reading and writing in one day, which must have been inherited from the wisdom of its parents."
His words surprised everyone slightly.
Even a human child is unlikely to be able to read and write in two months, and if what Baptiste said is true, then this sea wolf's intelligence even surpasses that of humans.
"Mr. Baptiste, are you telling the truth?"
Edgar raised his eyebrows slightly, he could still accept the scene of the sea wolf communicating through the alphabet board that he saw yesterday, but now, what Baptiste threw seemed to be too bizarre, even Edgar, who didn't want to cause more trouble, was confused.
If everything is true, then Baptiste has mastered an evolutionary approach that is simply ahead of his time.
The biggest constraint on mages is lifespan, it is difficult for a mage to reach a higher rank in a limited lifespan, but if wisdom can be passed on to the next generation in some way, then in less than three generations, the overall magic level of mankind will be greatly improved, and at that time, the high level will no longer be a distant and unattainable existence.
This will probably lead to a second magical revolution and a radical change in the fabric of today's society.
Excellent mages will have more opportunities to pass on their offspring, while declining mages will not have the right to breed offspring, and eventually, all the resources of society will move closer to excellent and powerful mages, which is similar to the social form of the ancient magic empire.
Thoughts were running in everyone's minds, but Baptiste didn't stop talking.
"Not only that, folks, this newborn sea wolf, according to my nurturing of his parents, has even mastered the ability to speak."
"Ability to speak!?
Jane's eyes widened as she looked at Darcy, the dreary man who was just as surprised, staring straight at the presence in the black cloth.
Arymia gently pinched the corner of Reiner's clothes, her uneasiness was conveyed through her fingertips, Reiner didn't speak, he gently patted the back of Elimia's hand, signaling that she didn't need to panic.
"That's right."
Baptiste lifted the black cloth and saw a young sea wolf sitting quietly in an iron cage.
"Say hello to everyone."
Baptiste said that it took some time for the young sea wolf to understand Baptiste's words.
Then, it opened its mouth and pieced together a sentence in a muffled, but clearly pointed, voice.
"You...... Good ......"
Its actions caused everyone to freeze in place, unable to speak for a long time.
At this point, Baptiste spoke again.
"The name of this talking sea wolf, Eiffel."
