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

"How much? Forty-five percent?"

Upon hearing Professor Sun's answer, Old Cai was stunned for a moment, then his voice suddenly rose: "Old Sun, you're really not joking?"

"It increases the wind affinity of the green velvet worm by 45%, and it won't cause it to spin a cocoon prematurely? You actually developed such a potion?"

"To correct you, it wasn't me, it was one of my students who developed it independently."

Professor Sun paused, not giving Lao Cai much time to process the question, and then asked in return, "Lao Cai, with your years of experience in the patent office, how much money do you think would be needed to invest in materials to achieve this kind of fusion effect?"

Old Cai blurted out, "Is that even a question? It can increase wind affinity and prevent insects from forming cocoons prematurely. The formula must have used top-grade spiritual plants from high-risk secret realms. The cost must be at least a million!"

"Yes, that's what any normal person would think..."

Professor Sun took a deep breath and continued, "But what if I told you that this medicine doesn't require millions of resources at all, and that the total material cost per vial is less than five hundred yuan?"

blah blah blah!

As soon as Professor Sun finished speaking, the sound of a thermos cup falling to the ground came from the other end of the terminal.

Just moments ago, Lao Cai was being somewhat sarcastic, but now he seemed to have been plunged into ice water, suddenly sobering up.

The cost of adapting to wind-related properties, which used to start at hundreds of thousands, is now less than five hundred yuan?

This is like dropping a nuclear bomb on the ancestral graves of monopoly capital!

After a good ten seconds, Lao Cai finally suppressed his excitement and asked, "Lao Sun... are you sure the data is real? No side effects?"

Professor Sun glanced at the screen, then turned to look at Number 18, who was lying in the temperature-controlled chamber.

"I watched it complete the experiment with my own eyes."

"Moreover, there are complete monitoring, material records, reaction curves, pet status data... As for side effects... there are currently no obvious rejection reactions, and the data on the detector is very stable, with no signs of side effects."

Upon hearing Professor Sun's answer, Old Cai gasped and quickly said, "Old Sun, once this technology is released, do you know how huge a capital tsunami it will trigger?"

"Those insect-type and wind-type potion companies, those guys who control the market through high-priced channels, are going to go crazy!"

"Of course I know!"

Professor Sun nodded emphatically and said, "That's why I let you use the red channel!"

At this moment, Lao Cai stopped wasting words and his fingers kept typing on the keyboard: "Send me the complete information immediately. I will have the mainframe take over and start the red-level expedited review right now."

Who is the applicant?

Professor Sun spoke up: "Tianfu Beast Taming University, Chemistry Department, Su Mo."

"Patent type?"

Professor Sun turned and glanced at Su Mo.

Feeling Professor Sun's gaze, Su Mo replied, "A dual patent in academia and commerce!"

"Formula, preparation process, alternative material screening logic, and adaptive training support plan—all packaged and protected!"

Then came another series of keyboard clicks.

After a while, Lao Cai spoke up: "The data is now locked. It will enter the review pool this afternoon, and the mainframe has also cut off regular access permissions."

At this point, Lao Cai said in a serious tone, "Lao Sun, let me remind you, this matter can't be suppressed for long. Once the red channel is opened, the commotion can't be kept secret."

Upon hearing Lao Cai say that the data lock was complete, Professor Sun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I know. So we need to finalize things before they find out."

Old Cai nodded and said, "Yes, I will personally oversee the mainframe through the process."

The atmosphere in the lab remained tense after the call ended.

As the call ended, the atmosphere in the laboratory was filled with a kind of fervent excitement, as if witnessing history.

Lu Junfeng and He Ya, who had overheard the entire phone call, were now completely dumbfounded.

Today, they not only witnessed the miracle of the lepidopteran lepidopteran levitation, but also heard firsthand how the deputy director of the patent office safeguarded the drug.

At this moment, Lu Junfeng and He Ya both realized that the place where they were standing was the dividing point of the insect-type history of the Beast Taming World!

As long as they cling to Su Mo's coattails, they will definitely make a name for themselves in the history of beast taming.

Thinking of this, Lu Junfeng's gaze towards Su Mo immediately changed.

If Su Mo was just an overly talented junior in his eyes before...

Now, in his eyes, Su Mo has become an academic mountain that can only be looked up to.

At this moment, He Ya quickly pledged her loyalty to Su Mo, saying, "Director Su!"

"Rest assured, I will not reveal a single word about everything that happened in the lab today!"

Lu Junfeng also seemed to wake up from a dream and declared, "Me too! From today onwards, I am Director Su's die-hard fan!"

"I'll keep today's experimental phenomena and material names to myself!"

"Forget about Breeze Grass and Assimilation Enzymes, even if someone asks me if I came to the research institute today, I'll say I don't know!"

He Ya glanced at him coldly and said bluntly, "You'd better really have amnesia. Don't get excited and use the floating height of the 18th as bragging rights when you go on a blind date."

Lu Junfeng immediately became agitated, and said in a firm and forceful voice, "He Ya, don't look down on me. Do you think I'm the kind of person who can't tell what's important?"

"This kind of private data, even if I were talking in my sleep, I would slap myself twice to wake myself up!"

After saying that, Lu Junfeng suddenly leaned close to the temperature-controlled cabin, looked at Number 18 inside, and said solemnly, "Number 18, from today onwards, you are my living ancestor!"

"My future professional title evaluation and academic prospects are all in your hands. Don't worry, even if I live on air and dirt, I will definitely support you to the fullest!"

However, Number 18 in the temperature-controlled cabin looked up blankly, completely bewildered as to why the human in front of him was suddenly yelling at him. He instinctively shrank into the corner of the cabin, his eyes filled with confusion.

He Ya's heart melted at the sight, and she immediately turned to Su and said, "Director Su, I think that since No. 18 has just completed its attribute adaptation, the current temperature-controlled cabin mat is not comfortable enough. We should replace it with a softer feeding mat immediately."

Seeing this, Lu Junfeng said defiantly, "I'll go change!"

He Ya sneered and said bluntly, "Do you even know what humidity and material of mat it's best suited for right now? By the time you've checked the data, even the 18th can take another nap."

After speaking, He Ya walked to the locker and took out a velvet cushion that had been disinfected beforehand.

Seeing this, Lu Junfeng's eyes widened in disbelief: "When did you prepare this? You actually tried to curry favor with Number Eighteen behind my back!"

"This is called experimental nursing."

"That's called vying for favor!"

However, He Ya ignored him completely, gently opened the temperature control chamber, replaced the old mat, and let Number Eighteen lie on the high-grade soft mat.

Seeing that the caregiver's job was being taken away, Lu Junfeng turned around and grabbed a leaf of the Breeze Grass next to him: "Then I'll feed Number 18 his first extra meal after the experiment!"

Upon hearing this, He Ya glanced at the object and said, "Put it down."

Lu Junfeng asked warily, "Why?"

"The edge of that leaf you're feeding it is damaged. Number 18 just finished adapting to the wind attribute, and emotional stability is very important for it. What if feeding it a damaged leaf affects its mood?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Junfeng looked down at the leaf with only a small, rice-grain-sized tear and fell silent.

Su Mo's eyes twitched slightly as he watched from the side.

I never expected that these two people, who were professional researchers yesterday, would become such sycophants of the 18th today.

At this moment, Number 18 was looking at the two of them with a blank expression. It couldn't understand how it had become the living ancestors of these two humans just by drinking some medicine. But that didn't stop it from comfortably turning over and enjoying this emperor-level treatment.

Even with just a simple roll over, Lu Junfeng and He Ya exclaimed anxiously, "It moved! It moved!"

"It seems to have glanced at the Breeze Grass again. Quick, make a note of it! Number Eighteen continues to show a high level of interest in the Breeze Grass!"

Looking at the two fanatical believers who had gone mad with delusion, Su Mo rubbed his temples and couldn't help but say, "That's enough. Number 18 has only just completed the first stage of adaptation; there's still a lot of training and retesting to come."

"You're treating it like a living ancestor now, what if it develops a mindset of being rich and powerful?"

As if he understood that Su Mo was talking badly about him, Fu Gui, who had been watching the commotion from the doorway, immediately raised his head, walked over with his head held high, and first glanced at Lu Junfeng and He Ya before finally landing on Number 18.

Number 18 felt Fu Gui's gaze and his body stiffened instantly, instinctively sensing that this guy was not someone to be trifled with.

Fugui stared at Number 18 for a few seconds, then flicked its tail lightly. Its deep blue eyes revealed a hint of seniority scrutinizing a newcomer, and it was about to reprimand Number 18.

But the next second Su Mo pressed its head back down and said, "Don't give me that. The green worms are none of your business."

Fu Gui: "Huh?"

Su Mo said irritably, "You're already a teaching assistant for the pseudo-wolf line, don't try to enforce the law across species lines."

Upon hearing this, Lu Junfeng's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Director Su! Shouldn't we also arrange a teaching assistant for the Green Velvet Thread?"

He Ya, who was standing nearby, quickly asked, "What do you want to do?"

Lu Junfeng pointed at Number 18 and said with utmost seriousness, "I believe that Number 18 is perfectly capable of serving as a demonstration assistant for the Wind Attribute Adaptation Training of the Green Velvet Worm!"

"Status should be equal to wealth!"

He Ya was silent for two seconds, then nodded seriously: "That makes sense."

Su Mo: "..."

It’s over.

These people are beyond saving.

While Su Mo was beaming with joy, Lao Cai quickly completed the system verification in the review room.

[The expedited review channel (red line) is now open]
