Beast Tamer: The evolution path I made up has come true!

In traditional pet breeding science, there are indeed extreme training methods that use "extreme desire" to squeeze the potential out of pets.

Although applying this theory to a superpower like "mental traction" sounds extremely absurd, if you really try to explain it from the perspective of behavioral neuroscience, Su Mo's nonsense can actually be logically coherent.

Thinking of this, Xu Qingshan said in a deep voice, "Adjustment is permitted."

"But the experimental subjects must never have direct physical contact with the target object."

Su Mo nodded solemnly and said, "Understood."

Then Su Mo turned to the lab technician beside him and said, "Please place the slippers in the center of its field of vision, preferably at a distance that it just can't reach."

Upon hearing this, the lab technician gave Su Mo a complicated look.

Having done scientific research for so many years, this is the first time in my life I've ever seen such an unethical experimental demand from a "scientific glutton."

But since Professor Xu, who was in charge of the test, didn't say anything, he had no choice but to do as he was told.

So the pink bear slippers were moved to the edge of the lab table.

It was about one and a half meters away from Fugui.

The way they controlled that distance was downright vicious.

Fugui stood there, the pink color of the bear slippers catching his eye.

It stretched out its claws and pried hard, but it was only two inches away.

Even with its mouth wide open, it was still an inch short.

But if he tried to bypass the experimental table and rush over directly, Su Mo would hold onto the leash around his neck tightly.

In short, it's always just a little bit short.

After failing to reach it several times, Fugui became extremely impatient and resorted to using all his strength to try and drag Su Mo around the experimental table.

As soon as he jumped half a step, Su Mo ruthlessly slapped his head down.

"We can't go there."

Fu Gui: "Huh?"

His clear eyes were filled with great doubt.

The slippers are right in front of me, why can't I go over them?!

Su Mo gripped the dog's head tightly with both hands, whispering almost against its ear, "Hold back, don't move your claws."

"Use your brain to think! Stare at it, and suck it in!"

Fugui was forced to tilt its head back, its eyes rolling back as it was being strangled, while it made a "woofing" sound in its throat, its entire dog face contorting into a mask of pain.

The female student in black stockings, standing in the observation area, felt a pang of sympathy. She cautiously raised her hand and weakly suggested, "How about... we let it get closer and smell it to satisfy its craving?"

Without a second thought, Su Mo shook his head decisively and said, "Absolutely not."

"We are now at the most critical stage of breaking through the threshold; we can't afford to be any less."

Black-stockinged junior: "..."

Then, in despair, he closed his eyes and finally realized that his slippers were probably going to be ruined today, and there would be no going back.

Watching this precious creature being pushed to the brink of explosion by himself.

Su Mo took a deep breath, abruptly released his grip on the dog's head, and loosened the leash.

Suddenly freed from physical restraint, Fugui instinctively lunged forward half a step.

But then, it gripped the ground hard with its four paws and brought the car to a complete stop on the spot!

It certainly doesn't understand advanced commands like "make it fly over by itself".

But it clearly remembered Su Mo's warning—"Absolutely do not pounce on it and try to catch it with your mouth."

Then, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Su Mo had clearly let go of her hand.

Normally, it would have pounced on the food like a hungry dog ​​and started devouring it.

But this seemingly unintelligent fake wolf was showing an extremely high degree of obedience to Su Mo at this moment.

Su Mo's command forcefully suppressed its instinct to pounce, making it restrain its impulse and stand still in place.

However, this intense inner conflict between "having to obey" and "desire to do so" plunged its dog brain into unprecedented anxiety and frenzy.

Its claws scratched frantically on the hard floor, making a hissing sound, while a suppressed whimper of grievance and longing escaped its throat.

"Waaah..."

"Waaaaah..."

At this moment, Fugui's tail swayed, leaving behind the afterimage of a helicopter propeller.

Its eyes, fixed on the pink bear slipper, grew increasingly red and focused.

That "clear stupidity" that belongs to the fake wolf is being gradually devoured by a violent possessiveness.

It wanted that slipper.

I'm going crazy thinking about it.

The dog was so preoccupied with thinking about it that it was practically twisting itself into a pretzel!

Just then, Shen Qinghe, who had been staring at the monitoring instrument, suddenly looked up and said, "There's a response."

Shen Qinghe's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly drew everyone's attention to the testing screen like a thunderclap.

The previously stagnant mental fluctuation curve actually jumped slightly upwards!

This amplitude was extremely small, lasting only a fraction of a second.

If Shen Qinghe hadn't been staring intently at the screen, this would have been dismissed as an instrument malfunction or a normal physiological stress response.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingshan, who was standing to the side, suddenly took half a step forward and said, "Replay the data from just now immediately!"

The experimenter's hands moved like blurs across the keyboard, quickly retrieving the records.

On the screen, the mental fluctuation curve was replayed and magnified.

At the moment Fugui let out that whimper, the brainwave curve did indeed show an abnormal peak increase.

Qin Ze, who was standing to the side, stared at the peak on the screen with a furrowed brow and said, "Professor Xu, this can only prove that its nervous system is in a state of hyperactivity."

"This faint brainwave is far from enough to create a pulling force that interferes with reality, and cannot prove that it is releasing mental skills."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingshan nodded.

Qin Ze's statement is indeed correct. The peak generated by wealth is too weak, and it is still a long way from the insurmountable barrier of "skill release".

However, just when everyone thought it was just a minor nervous twitch, Su Mo's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

At the same moment, the system panel suddenly popped up!

[Extreme emotional anchoring stimulus detected!]

[Current prototype skill: Mental traction.]

Success rate: 5.0%

[Auto-triggered judgment in progress...]

【The judgment is successful! 】

Su Mo stared at the system panel in front of him, his wildly beating heart instantly returning to his stomach.

I won my bet!

With a success rate of only 5.0%, Fugui's almost obsessive desire for this slipper actually triggered a miracle!

The very next second that Qin Ze and Xu Qingshan were still drawing conclusions about that "insignificant peak"

On the lab table, the tip of the pink bear slipper trembled without warning.

"crunch..."

The slight friction sounded particularly jarring in the quiet laboratory.

The black-stockinged junior's voice caught in her throat, her eyes widening as if she couldn't understand why her slippers had suddenly come to life.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, the slipper slowly slid one centimeter towards Fugui while still touching the countertop!

The wind pressure curve remained unchanged.

The magnetic field curve remained unchanged.

On the monitoring screen, the previously faint mental fluctuation curve began to rise steadily as the slippers slid!

Upon seeing this, Shen Qinghe gripped the pen tightly, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "It moved...it really moved!"

That shout completely ignited the entire venue.

The slippers moved very clumsily, wobbling along the way, their soles scraping against the lab bench with a soft rustling sound.

Although it lacked the elegant, floating visual impact of the first live stream, it was like a pet animal that had just learned to walk, clumsily extending its power into reality for the first time.

After a brief period of silence in the live stream, the chat erupted like a volcanic eruption:

Holy crap, it actually moved!!
