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

A video clip of Professor Sun publicly endorsing the Green Velvet Worm research project went viral on major beast-taming forums and academic circles. Supporters believe that since a leading figure in insect-based science is willing to personally get involved, it means that Su Mo's idea must have its feasibility.

However, skeptics and conservatives insist that Su Mo has yet to produce any complete theoretical evidence.

[Does physical elongation of the body equate to evolution? Going to the gym to lift weights can change your physique, so does building muscle mean you've evolved? That's absurd!]

[This is the most basic common sense in the Bug-type realm: the wind-attribute energy absorbed by Velkhana will ultimately only gather in the wing buds on its back! To think he can overturn even this? Does he think the laws of nature are made of clay?]

[They haven't even released a single formal theoretical report yet; all they do is demonstrate the stretching effect in their live streams. When did serious scientific research degenerate into attention-grabbing variety shows?]

I think it was just a lucky break for the super-brain gravity dog, which gave it the illusion that it was the creator, and made it believe that any random, fabricated route could be achieved.

Despite public opinion, Su Mo has not appeared to respond.

Su Mo's silence was interpreted by outsiders as a sign of guilt and helplessness.

By the third day, the negative voices on the internet had completely gained an overwhelming advantage.

[Haven't shown up for three days, hiding in the lab like a coward?]

[The stretching exercises mentioned earlier were just a smokescreen; once the wind attribute affinity comes into play, their true nature will be revealed!]

It's a pity for Professor Sun; his lifelong academic reputation was ruined in his old age by a student who only cared about attracting attention.

I'm putting my words here! The green-bellied caterpillar will never escape the evolutionary path of the green-leafed moth, and nothing anyone can change that!

Amid the public frenzy, several influential researchers from other universities specializing in insect research even jointly published an article, demanding that Tianfu University immediately suspend the project.

The article's wording was merciless, each word piercing the heart.

They righteously and sternly denounced Su Mo for openly conducting high-intensity stretching and abusive experiments on pets without sufficient theoretical support. This not only violated rigorous scientific research procedures but also provided a terrible misleading guidance to young beast tamers!

In an instant, a deluge of doubts and ridicule swept over Su Mo like a tsunami, seemingly threatening to engulf him.

However, when questioned by the crowd, Su Mo's attention was focused on the progress bar on the system panel.

[Current false evolutionary path: The hypothesis that the blue-bellied worm evolved into a long-bodied cloud-like worm.]

[A surge in public attention has been detected...]

[Controversy continues to escalate!]

[Awareness has increased significantly!]

[Progress in converting fake into real: 16.8%...]

[Progress in converting fake into real: 19.3%...]

[Progress in converting fake into real: 22.7%...]

Chapter 81 Su Mo, are you this monstrous? (Part 2)

Watching the progress bar rise rapidly, Su Mo nodded in satisfaction, then focused his attention on the paper on the screen.

Now, this paper, "On the Enhancement of the Affinity of Drugs to the Wind Properties of the Green Velvet," is only missing the final data to be completed.

Once the paper is finalized, I can openly and legitimately present the drug and demonstrate its power and the correctness of the theory!

Thinking of this, Su Mo took a deep breath and then quickly typed on the keyboard.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the laboratory was exceptionally heavy.

Faced with increasingly outrageous rumors and pressure from the outside world, Professor Sun, his eyes bloodshot, stared at the stretching table and suddenly said, "Junfeng, turn on the live stream."

"Start the broadcast now?"

Lu Junfeng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly advised, "Old Sun, you mustn't!"

"The public opinion outside is completely out of control now, and the whole internet is criticizing us for having no theoretical basis."

"If I start broadcasting now, those haters will probably cyberbully you too!"

"What are you afraid of?"

Professor Sun frowned, pointed to the stretching table in front of him, and said seriously, "Aren't people online accusing us of abusing animals and trying to attract attention? But now our elongation training has already yielded results!"

The velvet on the stretching table has changed its appearance. Its originally round and bloated body has become slender and streamlined.

When they lie on the stretching table, you can still see the outline of the velvet worm, but once they are stimulated and stretch their bodies, the worms will quickly elongate, like a graceful green ribbon.

Professor Sun pointed to the blue worm on the stage and said, "This change can already be shown to the outside world via live broadcast."

As the experimenter who witnessed the changes in the velvet worms firsthand, Lu Junfeng's eyes initially showed a look of relief. However, after a brief moment of joy, worry followed: "Professor Sun, the results of the stretching are indeed impeccable, but if we show it directly without theoretical basis, those people outside will probably still focus on the lack of scientific evidence, the abuse of velvet worms, and the invalidity of the experiment... Perhaps we should ask Director Su for his plans first?"

Professor Sun nodded in agreement: "We should indeed ask for his opinion."

After saying that, Professor Sun dialed Su Mo's number.

As soon as the call connected, Professor Sun said, "Xiao Su, the special training for the green worms has yielded results. However, there is a lot of controversy outside, and it has even deviated from the normal scope of academic discussion."

"I was thinking, now that we've achieved results, why don't we start a live stream? Show them what it looks like now."

At this point, Professor Sun continued, "Of course, the worst thing in scientific research is to be impetuous; everything should be based on your research pace."

"If going public now would disrupt your train of thought or affect your subsequent plans, then let's continue to calm down and do the experiment."

Meanwhile, listening to Professor Sun's words, Su Mo glanced at the paper on the screen, which was only a few lines of data away from being finalized, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

Professor Sun's decision to start broadcasting now will not disrupt his plans; on the contrary, it will garner him even more attention!

This is practically setting the stage for the paper to come later!

Thinking of this, Su Mo said, "Elder Sun, let's start the broadcast then. My paper on wind affinity is almost finished, and now is the perfect time."

"When they ask, we can just show them the paper!"

After receiving Su Mo's reply, Professor Sun turned to Lu Junfeng and He Ya and said, "Junfeng, get ready. Su said his paper will be ready soon and we can start broadcasting."

"What?! Professor Su's thesis is almost finished?!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Junfeng and He Ya both widened their eyes, their faces filled with undisguised astonishment and disbelief.

He Ya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "It's only been a few days! The thesis is already finished? Professor Su is so fast!"

Seeing the two of them staring in disbelief, Professor Sun calmly said, "Alright, don't make a fuss."

"Since Xiao Su was able to propose this hypothesis, it means that he had already thought of the theoretical framework."

"He's just been organizing his thoughts and putting them on paper these past few days, so it's normal that he's working faster."

At this point, Professor Sun pointed to the control panel and said, "Let's start the broadcast now. It's time to let those people outside see what we've accomplished over this period of time."

"Okay, Mr. Sun, I'll start right away!"

Lu Junfeng took a deep breath and quickly started operating the main control panel.

The moment the live stream screen lit up, viewers who had been waiting for a long time quickly flooded in.

At first, the chat was filled with expectant messages from fans who had been waiting patiently: 【Finally, it's starting! Go, Su Shen!】

[Front row support! I believe Director Su's theory is not unfounded!]

[Hold on, Su Mo! Hurry up and bring out the final evolution results, I'm dying of impatience!]

However, as the live stream's popularity continued to rise, a large number of trolls and academics also flooded in, and the originally harmonious chat gradually became filled with hostility:

[Haha, the scam team finally dares to show their faces?]

What can a few forcibly elongated worms prove? It's just pointless experimentation without any theoretical support!

[This kind of unethical experiment involving the abuse and breeding of animals to gain attention should be immediately banned by higher authorities!]

Just then, some sharp-eyed viewers noticed that only Professor Sun and a few lab technicians were in the scene, but Su Mo was nowhere to be seen.

This gave the haters a perfect opportunity to exploit their weakness.

The initially hesitant comments completely spiraled out of control: [Wait, where's Su Mo? He's nowhere to be seen!]

[Hilarious! It's been missing for almost five days. It must know it's going to backfire, and it's too guilty to appear on camera, so it's hiding inside like a coward!]

[What a jerk! He hides away after something goes wrong, leaving a soon-to-retire professor to take the fall?]

[Exactly! Others have already said that if the velvet worm stretches its body, it can cause paralysis. I think Su Mo has ulterior motives!]

Faced with the trolls' rampant clamor, the fans, who were seething with anger, naturally refused to back down and immediately launched a fierce counterattack in the public chat:

[They showed the same attitude when the Fake Wolf Training Center was exposed. Don't they dare delete their accounts and run away when Su Sheng produces results!]

[Since Professor Sun is willing to broadcast, he must have achieved something! Can't we let things develop for a while? What's the rush, you keyboard warriors?!]

For a time, the two sides were arguing fiercely in the live broadcast room, with dense barrages of comments scrolling like snowflakes.

Seeing the chaotic barrage of comments, Professor Sun explained, "Xiao Su is finishing up her thesis and will be out soon. She's not afraid to see anyone."

"I'm going live today for no other reason than to show everyone the results of the first stage of the 'Blue Meatworm' project."

After saying that, Professor Sun ignored the arguments in the live chat and pointed the camera at the huge testing platform in the background.

"But before showing the animation, let's take a look at the current situation of the velvet worm."

As the camera zooms in, a close-up of the number 18 green worm appears on the screen.

The moment the screen was clearly visible, the previously noisy chat in the live stream suddenly stopped.

The pets in the photos are no longer the round, bloated green meatballs they remember.

Her current streamlined figure, constantly pulling back and twisting, immediately stunned the haters.
