Beast Tamer: I'm invincible because I can see the evolution path!

Chapter 87 The way to get stronger is by watching short videos? A liar who can fool even ghosts with his mouth!

Gu Xiaotu turned her gaze to Qiao Bai: "Professor Zhan...did you send me here to see him?"

She pointed to Qiao Bai next to Zhan Mo.

James nodded: "Yes, Qiao Bai is the key to helping us break through the new evolutionary direction of the rabbit-dog."

"But he looks so young! Is he really not the new beast tamer you found?" Gu Xiaotu's eyes widened in disbelief.

real or fake?

He still looks like a high school student!

"This is Qiao Bai, you should have heard of him," Zhan Mo said with a smile.

The moment Qiao Bai's name was uttered.

Gu Xiaotu immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"I know, I know!"

"Isn't that Qiao Bai?!"

Qiao Bai nodded calmly.

After encountering it many times, Qiao Bai gradually got used to it.

At first, I felt a little embarrassed when people recognized me.

Now?

Absolutely not.

"I'm so lucky!" Gu Xiaotu's face was flushed, and her big, bright eyes were fixed on Qiao Bai. "I...can I take a picture with you?"

I wouldn't call it idol worship, but this is a celebrity who's been all over the internet this year!

Especially after seeing the in-depth popular science about Qiao Bai online, the name of Qiao Bai as a "genius" was deeply imprinted in her mind.

Having the chance to get close to someone like that... I can't let it pass me by!

If you post more photos from the 70s, 80s, or 90s, maybe when Qiao Bai becomes a big shot like Professor Wu Qingshan in the future, she can leave them as family heirlooms for her grandchildren to brag about how amazing she was when she was young!

As clever as Qiao Bai was, he saw through Gu Xiaotu's thoughts at a glance.

"Okay." Qiao Bai smiled and didn't mind.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere between Qiao Bai and Gu Xiaotu, and with Gu Xiaotu constantly circling around Qiao Bai, asking all sorts of questions, Fang Junye's expression remained anything but pleasant.

James didn't interrupt them, letting them continue their conversation.

"So..." Gu Xiaotu put away her phone, glanced at Fang Junye and Zhan Mo beside her, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Qiao, were you invited by Professor Zhan to come here to study the evolutionary path of rabbits and dogs?"

talking.

Gu Xiaotu then thought of the incredible good luck that netizens had explained about Qiao Bai online.

Because of helping to rescue a honey bug, I was fortunate enough to discover a new evolutionary path for honey bugs.

The concept of "favorability" initially didn't make much of a splash, but unexpectedly it turned out to help a national treasure-level scientific research leader, becoming the breakthrough and key point of a national-level project.

There's not much to do.

But there are quite a few coincidences.

In summary... netizens are so envious they want to bite their handkerchiefs.

They acknowledge Qiao Bai's genius, but his luck cannot be ignored either!

This is not.

Upon seeing Qiao Bai, Gu Xiaotu instinctively felt that Professor Zhan Mo must have wanted to find Qiao Bai because his research had not made any new progress for some time, hoping to let Qiao Bai use his invincible luck.

As for the key to directly helping to find a new evolutionary path for the rabbit-dog?

Gu Xiaotu didn't even dare to think about it.

Do you really think she wasted the last two years she spent in the lab?

As a tamer of rabbits and dogs, Gu Xiaotu was both happy and annoyed to be chosen as an assistant in the experiment.

The good news is that the rabbit-dog might be able to embark on a unique new evolutionary path, and its strength might also be greatly improved.

The frustrating part is that during this experiment, the rabbits and dogs often had to cooperate with training and consume various herbs, minerals, and crystals.

The improvement and evolution of a pet's strength cannot be achieved simply by "eating". Moreover, if a pet eats too much or too many different kinds of food, it will develop a rebellious mentality.

Fortunately, current research on the evolutionary paths of pets is conducted on the basis of certain scientific theories, with a considerable amount of time interval between each step.

Instead of a chaotic mix of ingredients, where you eat this and that without any time to digest, it's something that even seven or eight assistants couldn't handle at the same time.

"Haha, you've guessed wrong." Zhan Mo put one hand in his pocket, his sunny smile making him look overly flamboyant: "I specially invited Professor Xiao Bai here because I wanted him to help me find the key to a new evolutionary path for the rabbit-dog."

As he spoke, Zhan Mo winked at Gu Xiaotu with his other hand: "Alright, let your rabbit and dog out for Professor Xiaobai to see."

Then Zhan Mo took out a thick stack of laboratory experimental reports and placed them in front of Qiao Bai.

"We have plenty of time today. Professor Xiaobai can use the real rabbits and dogs to review the information together. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have." Zhan Mo led Qiao Bai and Gu Xiaotu to sit down on the sofa.

Fang Junye arrived uninvited.

Before Qiao Bai could even open the report, Fang Junye, who was passing by, snatched it all away.

"Even if I gave you this lab report, you probably wouldn't understand it, would you?" Fang Junye said, crossing his legs with an air of arrogance. "It would be better to have that guy surnamed Zhan explain it to you word by word, so you don't embarrass yourself."

"Hurry up and let the rabbits out, what are you standing there for?" He then waved to Gu Xiaotu, "I'll invite you specially!"

Qiao Bai and Zhan Mo hadn't even had a chance to say anything yet.

Gu Xiaotu hardened his fist.

"Shut up!" Gu Xiaotu swung his fist, striking him cleanly and accurately in the abdomen.

Fang Junye was in so much pain that his face contorted, and he almost collapsed to the ground while clutching his stomach.

"Hmph!" Gu Xiaotu seemed still not satisfied, waving her fist and puffing out her cheeks like an angry little hamster as she spoke: "Serves you right for being rude to us!"

"I don't owe you anything! Watch your mouth!"

Qiao Bai laughed heartily and gave Gu Xiaotu a thumbs up: "Impressive, impressive! You must have trained specially for this skill."

"Of course!" Gu Xiaotu tilted her chin up, rubbed her thumb against her nose, and said with a smug look, "Who told me to be so cute? Being a little more agile is the best way to protect myself!"

After saying that, Gu Xiaotu didn't even glance at Fang Junye, who was holding his belly. He was a grown man, and she hadn't used much force at all; that kind of force wouldn't even break a brick.

She ignored Fang Junye, snatched the thick document back, and placed it in front of Qiao Bai.

"Although I'm not entirely sure about your expertise in pet evolution, Professor Zhan trusts you, so I trust you too," Gu Xiaotu said earnestly.

Followed by.

She released the rabbit dog.

Although he had seen what a rabbit-dog looked like in books before, seeing the real thing made Qiao Bai exclaim in admiration of the diversity of species.

Just like its name suggests, the rabbit dog looks like a combination of a rabbit and a dog.

White fur, a tail curled up behind its back, long, upright rabbit ears, an adorable three-lobed mouth, and ruby-red eyes are all iconic features of a rabbit.

The size of the rabbit dog far exceeds that of a typical rabbit, reaching the size of a German Shepherd or Golden Retriever.

With its robust body and four long, powerful legs, if you ignore the head and only look at the body, any dog ​​owner would say, "What a shiny, healthy dog! It's really well-cared for!"

However, the combination of such an adorable head and such a strong and powerful body on the same creature... just doesn't feel right. It's more like two ordinary creatures from nature have been randomly pieced together.

Moreover, after seeing the rabbit dog's adorable three-lobed mouth, Qiao Bai suddenly remembered one of the rabbit dog's attack methods described in the book: a mouth with a powerful bite force.

It looks quite cute, doesn't it?

Unfortunately, when this mouth opened, what was inside was not a pink and plump little tongue, but a gaping maw with two rows of sharp teeth.

well.

perfect.

Qiao Bai seemed to understand why Gu Xiaotu, such an adorable girl, would tame such a pet beast.

Because they both did it perfectly: they appeared harmless on the surface, but were actually more ruthless than anyone else when they got into a fight.

Qiao Bai stroked the fur on the rabbit's back; it wasn't as soft as he had imagined, it was a bit prickly.

Qiao Bai withdrew his hand again.

He began to look through the document.

Ignoring the academic sub-conferences and unimportant experimental results that he genuinely couldn't understand, Qiao Bai focused on the thought process behind each experiment.

These are the ideas that Qiao Bai most wants to learn.

By observing how the professor thinks about the normal evolution path of pets, he can better avoid being exposed when he uses his deception skills in the future.

Looking at the diverse ideas and arguments on the document, Qiao Bai nodded repeatedly—"Hmm, so that's how it works, interesting… I've tried the favorability system, but it doesn't seem to be working…" Gu Xiaotu is the beast tamer who has the deepest bond with the rabbit and dog among those participating in this research…

Qiao Bai noted down everything he wanted to see on the document and analyzed it in detail.

He was completely unaware that the three people beside him and their pet were all looking at him with different expressions.

Gu Xiaotu looked at Qiao Bai with curiosity in her eyes. She wanted to speak but didn't dare to disturb Qiao Bai. However, she always felt that Qiao Bai was flipping through the documents too fast.

It seems like a lot of content has been skipped!

Is this really okay?

Gu Xiaotu glanced at Zhan Mo beside her.

James remained calm and composed, showing no interference whatsoever with Qiao Bai's observation.

Only Fang Junye showed a cold smile.

"I told you long ago, a kid is a kid. He didn't even look at the most important argumentation process. What could he possibly figure out?" Fang Junye glared at Zhan Mo. "Hurry up and give me a copy too. You didn't just realize now that this kid can't beat me, and you're afraid I'll snatch the project responsibility from you, so you're deliberately withholding the materials to make me lose, right?"

"You're dreaming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a similarly heavy document was slammed onto his lap, hitting him squarely in the stomach.

Having just been punched and still bearing a bruise on his stomach, Fang Junye couldn't help but grin and snarl again: "You—"

He suddenly stood up and looked at James.

"Hurry up and read it. Don't wait until Professor Xiaobai finds the key point and you haven't finished reading it, and then you'll say that's what you think too." Zhan Mo didn't even look at him, leisurely drinking the coffee he had just brewed.

Fang Junye: "!"

Fang Junye was too lazy to argue with Zhan Mo any longer, and quickly flipped through the detailed report that recorded the progress of the experiment over the past two years.

Just looking at the text recorded above, Fang Junye began to uncontrollably imagine what he would do if he could get this project.

As he thought about it, Fang Junye became incredibly energetic, his face flushed, his eyes shining, and his brain working at its peak.

In an instant.

In this isolated meeting area of ​​the laboratory, the only sound you can hear is the rustling of papers.

Qiao Bai didn't need to read much, so he finished reading the documents in his hand first.

Qiao Bai closed the file and turned to look at the rabbit-dog lying obediently on Gu Xiaotu's lap, its long ears being played with by Gu Xiaotu.

Every now and then, Gu Xiaotu would pull the rabbit dog's tail out and lengthen it. As soon as she let go, the tail would curl back up on its own, just like an automatic tape measure. Once you start playing with it, you can't stop.

While playing... Gu Xiaotu suddenly felt a burning gaze from the side.

As soon as she turned her head, her eyes met Qiao Bai's—a sign that something was amiss.

Gu Xiaotu: Shy.jpg

Looking at the shy beast tamer, the rabbit-dog tilted its head and looked at Qiao Bai with its ruby-like eyes, which was kind of cute... But when it looked down at his muscular body, it didn't seem so cute anymore.

"Brother Qiao?" Gu Xiaotu winked at Qiao Bai, as if asking him what was wrong.

Qiao Bai: "Let me check on the rabbit dog."

Upon hearing this, the rabbit-dog stopped turning its head away and stared straight at Qiao Bai.

Qiao Bai: "..."

Qiao Bai ignored the rabbit-dog's gaze and activated his innate skill.

[Pet: Rabbit/Dog]

[Type: Intermediate to High-Level Extraordinary]

[Level: Tier 5, Advanced]

[Skills: Bite, Poison Gas Attack, Shadow Invasion, ..., Venom Swamp]

[Evolutionary Path: Poisonous Rabbit-Dog, Evil Dog]

[Does not currently meet the conditions for evolution]

[So bored, I want to randomly pick an opponent to bite, anyway, rabbits have small mouths and don't have rabies.]

Ignoring the rabbit dog's thoughts, Qiao Bai began to study the rabbit dog's evolutionary path.

Under the watchful eyes of several people, Qiao Bai once again flipped through the thick research report in his hand, but he wasn't as focused as before. His eyes were wandering, as if he was thinking about something.

Don't ask, asking is just performing the thought process.

The Poisonous Rabbit Dog represents the normal evolutionary path for rabbit dogs.

The normal evolutionary path is that after evolving, the rabbit-dog will shed its innocent and harmless appearance, its fur will change from white to blackish-purple, and its mouth will also evolve from a three-lobed mouth into the appearance of a real vicious dog. When the battle is at its most intense, saliva with an ominous color and toxicity will flow from the corner of its mouth.

They appear more aggressive in appearance.

This allows even beast tamers who are familiar with rabbit-dogs, or those who are not, to see the danger posed by the Poisonous Spirit Hound.

"E'quan" means "rumored dog"... "E" means rumor.

It can give rise to words like extortion, blackmail, and spreading rumors, none of which are positive or good words.

Qiao Bai hadn't even seen the evolution path of the Evil Dog yet, but just from the name, he had a feeling... The Evil Dog's abilities might be quite different from what Zhan Mo imagined, or even deviated from the expected path.

However, Qiao Bai still checked the evolution method of the Evil Dog.

Evolution Method: The Beastmaster's Personal Real Information (89%/85%)

The truth from 100000 people (99961/100000)

100000 People's Lies (121761/100000)

Once all requirements are met, it can evolve into a Hound.

Looking at these evolutionary conditions, Qiao Bai fell into a speechless silence.

The truth of 100,000 people, and the lies of 100,000 people?

The conditions for this evolution... well, they're a little bit absurd.

A tiny fraction.

Normally, you wouldn't come into contact with that many people.

What's even more outrageous is that Gu Xiaotu is almost ready to meet the conditions for evolution?

Qiao Bai hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Qiao Bai examined the document carefully, scrutinizing each word, and began to form a guess.

How do we distinguish between truth and falsehood?

Can a secret or just any casual remark be considered true or false?

Every word spoken is the truth, but the final expression is a lie. Is this considered a truth or a lie?

Qiao Bai gently rubbed the paper in his hand, his expression thoughtful... Hmm, this is interesting. If I think about it any further, it will involve philosophical theories.

However, none of these things concerned Qiao Bai.

He gathered his thoughts, finally closed the report in his hand again, and looked up in Gu Xiaotu's direction.

Gu Xiaotu subconsciously assumed that Qiao Bai was looking after the rabbits and dogs, so she didn't say anything.

Then, noticing that Qiao Bai's gaze was fixed on her, she looked at him curiously and asked, "Brother Qiao, are you looking at me?"

"Yes, I wanted to ask you, do you often take your rabbit and dog out to play?" Qiao Bai asked.

To collect the truths and lies of 100,000 people, you first need to be able to contact that many people!

Only when there is more contact and the quantity increases can it become possible to follow this evolutionary path.

of course.

For beast tamers, exploring their own inner selves is also a very important aspect.

85% of the personal information is real... Even companies don't fill out forms this detailed, let alone get a human to open up to a supernatural being to this extent. It's very difficult, extremely difficult.

In the evolutionary path of the Poisonous Spirit Rabbit Dog, the rabbit dog only needs to know 55% of the Beastmaster's true personal information.

That immediately jumped 30%.

When you put that 30% into an individual, it's definitely not as easy or effortless as it seems in words.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaotu tilted her head, the red tassels in her hair swaying gently: "Well... I don't take Rabbit out very often. She usually goes to the training hall for training. Otherwise, I don't let Rabbit out much when we're outside."

After all, in terms of appearance, the rabbit dog is a little bit hard for people to accept.

Does occasionally walking the rabbit in the neighborhood count?

...You won't encounter 100,000 people even when walking your dog.

"Besides training, what leisure and entertainment activities do you and your rabbit and dog usually engage in?" Qiao Bai continued to ask.

We need to figure out how Gu Xiaotu usually gets the rabbits and dogs to come into contact with these 100,000 people.

The next step is to continue using this method to maximize the number of truth-telling people the rabbit-dog encounters, and then the rabbit-dog can evolve into a blackmail dog.

"Leisure and entertainment activities..." Although she didn't know why Qiao Bai would ask that, Gu Xiaotu still thought about it very seriously: "Reading books, listening to music, doing crafts together, watching TV dramas, watching variety shows, scrolling through short videos... basically, all of these are ways to relax at home..."

As they talked, Gu Xiaotu noticed that Qiao Bai's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, but his expression was becoming more and more shocked, as if he had thought of something very unbelievable.

Gu Xiaotu: "?"

"Did I say something wrong?" Gu Xiaotu asked somewhat anxiously.

At this point, Zhan Mo stopped leisurely drinking his coffee: "Professor Xiao Bai, don't scare Little Rabbit. The little girl is very timid. If there's anything wrong, just say it."

Qiao Bai was speechless for a moment.

Is a little girl who can make a grown man writhe in pain with a single punch really that timid?

Qiao Bai really wanted to ask Zhan Mo how he could say such a thing.

"No, it's not that you did anything wrong, it's just that I thought of something important." That's what he was thinking, but he didn't say it out loud. He comforted the little girl and said it to her and Zhan Mo's expectant eyes.

"I've reviewed your experimental approaches over the past two years. They've all evolved in the direction you described, aiming to enable the rabbit-dog to verify lies," Qiao Bai said calmly. Furthermore, since the key to the rabbit-dog's increased strength was the truth, they didn't place excessive emphasis on the lie as the crucial element.

Instead, the lie was treated as a variable, and this variable was appropriately added to each experimental approach.

But they never thought of elevating the importance of lies to the same level as that of the truth.

And... 100,000 people is indeed a rather large number.

"Is there a problem?" James put down his coffee cup and asked, puzzled. "Considering the new abilities that the new evolutionary path of the rabbit dog might activate, coupled with the rabbit dog's own attributes, I considered using corresponding resources to enhance the rabbit dog's physical vitality, and then conducting various experiments using truth and lies as guiding variables."

"As long as my approach is correct, I can find a way to evolve by trying different methods."

Before Qiao Bai could speak, Fang Junye, who had finally finished reading three-quarters of the thick document, let out a heavy, cold snort: "Hmph! And yet you still haven't gotten any results?"

"If you ask me, you're just too cautious, unwilling to take the plunge and try!" Fang Junye's face showed a pained expression: "Two years, a full two years, you have four test subjects, and you've only tried less than two hundred experimental protocols?"

Fang Junye was practically ready to point his finger at Zhan Mo and yell at him: "Be bold and meticulous! Go ahead and try! If one doesn't work, try another! As long as you try more and test more variables, you'll eventually find the best one!"

"If I were in charge of this project, I could try at least six hundred experimental schemes in two years, three times more efficient than you! We might even have results by now!"

Even Qiao Bai, who had never participated in a difficult research process, couldn't help but roll his eyes at Fang Junye after hearing his words.

Qiao Bai did not do that.

However, all the researchers in the lab heard Fang Junye's words. They stopped what they were doing and cast a look of disdain mixed with speechlessness in Fang Junye's direction.

Is 167 research proposals over two years considered a small number?

Quite a lot!

On average, each selected assistant beast tamer has to try at least one or two solutions each month.

It is everyone.

They, on the other hand, need to come up with six to ten possible specific solutions, select one before implementing it, and in the process, observe and record the details, eliminate the bad ones, and continue to refine and try the ones that have a reaction...

The tedious process and activities requiring a lot of mental effort are not as simple as they seem on the surface.

They live in a very busy state every day.

I dare not rest at all.

Six hundred varieties in two years?

Triple their current efficiency?

The kind of speechless reaction from researchers.

If they absolutely had to say something... that's all they could say.

idiot.

I haven't seen such an idiot in a long time.

There are only three ways to achieve this level of efficiency.

Expand recruitment, increase the size of laboratories, and increase the number of researchers to accelerate experimental progress.

But judging from Fang Junye's defiant tone, he definitely didn't think much about it; he simply used their existing staff to achieve this result.

Then we can only exploit them relentlessly, leaving them with absolutely no time to rest.

Or perhaps it's a mindless attempt to pile up various materials.

If it's the former, they'll immediately walk away.

They are human beings.

It's not livestock.

They are able to work 24 hours a day without sleep.

Even a robot can crash if it works continuously for twenty hours.

Each evolutionary plan was written down only after repeated deliberation and confirmation, and they also conducted repeated and detailed reviews during the verification process of each evolutionary plan.

science.

cautious.

In an orderly manner.

That is their principle.

If it's the latter... then use countless resources and materials to pile it up...

Ha ha.

All they can do is curse "idiot" and walk away.

All their years of study and hard work have been for nothing but mindlessly piling up materials here, becoming mere tools, yielding no results, and then being pointed at and scolded with phrases like, "Anyone who's never been to school could do a better job than you."

It's not that they think in a dark way.

Wasting a lot of material resources without finding results is different from those who worked hard and diligently but just lacked a bit of luck!

"So what do you want to do now?" Zhan Mo looked at Fang Junye with a mocking gaze: "Should I give you the lab so you can experiment freely?"

"I worked so hard to get these resources, I'm not going to let you waste them like this. You have to come up with something that can convince me."

"I already have an idea." Fang Junye glanced at Qiao Bai, then turned to Zhan Mo, saying with a smug and proud expression, "Your research direction is wrong! If we follow my idea, we can definitely find a new evolutionary path for rabbits and dogs within a year!"

Fang Junye waved his arms and spoke excitedly.

"The new evolutionary direction for the rabbit-dog shouldn't be about lie detection or telling the truth; that's not its true ability," Fang Junye said, his words carrying a certain logic. "The rabbit-dog's inherent abilities lie in poison and darkness, making it an aggressive supernatural being. We should definitely delve deeper into its capabilities! Dig as far as we can!"

Qiao Bai, who had just thought there was a tiny bit of truth in what Fang Junye said, was speechless.

Think more.

It's he who thinks too much.

There is no reason.

That would mean the direction has completely gone astray.

The idea is roughly correct... but the evolution of the Poisonous Rabbit Dog has already explored the attributes in great depth, and there's nothing more to be found if you dig any further!

It should be said that James's idea is correct.

Starting with the unusual abilities of rabbits and dogs, we can make bold speculations and carefully verify them.

The lack of results after two years was not due to Zhanmo's incompetence, but rather because he had strayed from the right path at the most crucial point. With just a little guidance and a bit more encouragement to let his imagination run wild, he could indeed find a new evolutionary path for the rabbit-dog breed.

"Give me this project for two months, and I guarantee I'll make a breakthrough!" Fang Junye said, shaking his head and acting as if he were "helping you," which left Qiao Bai speechless.

James rolled his eyes at him.

"So you're just here to get something for nothing, aren't you?" Zhan Mo almost laughed out of anger. "You think you can get me to hand over my men to you for two months with just a few words? Why should I?"

"Because my idea is correct."

"Sorry, you can't convince me. I don't think there's any way to delve deeper into the rabbit-dog attributes."

"You idiot..."

"Stop, stop, stop." Faced with the two arguing, Qiao Bai stepped in to stop them: "Want to hear my thoughts?"

The three of them turned to look at Qiao Bai at the same time.

As for Zhan Mo and Fang Junye, well… Qiao Bai glanced at Gu Xiaotu and the rabbit-dog, who were engrossed in watching the spectacle, and felt a bit speechless.

kindness……

Judging from the expressions of the person and the rabbit, they usually enjoy watching the excitement and gossip.

No wonder they were able to collect the truths and lies of nearly 100,000 people.

"Professor Xiaobai, feel free to speak your mind." Zhan Mo looked at Qiao Bai with anticipation in his eyes: "After listening to this idiot's bunch of time-wasting ideas, I now think that no matter what you say, you can't be any dumber than him."

The answer is that Fang Junye's views are worthless in his mind.

How to persuade him?

No, no.

It's not even worth listening to it once more.

Qiao Bai said with a smile, "First of all, I agree with what Mr. Fang said."

As soon as Qiao Bai finished speaking, Zhan Mo and Fang Junye raised their eyebrows at the same time.

"I knew it!" Fang Junye said smugly. "Little brat, you've got some sense, but you're not trying to piggyback on my ideas, are you?"

"I'm telling you, that's impossible!"

Zhan Mo didn't speak, crossed his arms, and raised an eyebrow, as if wanting to see what else Qiao Bai could say.

Ultimately, Qiao Bai could never truly stand on Fang Junye's side; Zhan Mo was absolutely certain of that.

Qiao Bai shook his head.

"As I said, I only agree with one of Mr. Fang's statements, and not even entirely."

Qiao Bai looked at Zhan Mo: "Brother Mo, your point of view is correct, but you've gone a little astray."

kindness?

Zhan Mo sat up straight and moved closer to Qiao Bai: "Professor Xiao Bai, what do you mean by that?"

Qiao Bai briefly recalled the ideas he had gleaned from those documents and summarized, "Brother Mo, you delved into the ability of the rabbit-dog to enhance their strength by telling the truth, and then derived the idea of ​​lie detection, right?"

James nodded.

"That's a correct viewpoint, and this ability certainly has value for further exploration, but you neglected the 'lie' aspect too much when conducting the experiment."

"The truth from the Beastmaster can make the rabbit dog's strength soar, while the Beastmaster's lies have no effect on the rabbit dog, but that doesn't mean that other people's lies have no effect on the rabbit dog."

"Whether it's the truth or a lie, when it accumulates to a certain amount, it can lead to a qualitative change from a quantitative one."

James's eyes lit up instantly.

"Lies, accumulated to a certain amount?" Zhan Mo found it increasingly interesting as he spoke: "Yes... I was overly concerned with the connection between beast tamers and rabbits and dogs, neglecting the fact that this lie-detecting ability is meant to be used on everyone... I should broaden the scope, let quantity lead to quality..."

The researchers around also stopped what they were doing and gathered around the small cubicle, peeking out to listen to what Qiao Bai had to say.

Some of them were holding notebooks, scribbling something down with their heads down.

"The connection between the Beastmaster and the rabbit-dog must also be considered. The more the Beastmaster trusts the rabbit-dog and reveals the truths and secrets related to themselves, the more it will help the rabbit-dog's new evolutionary path." Qiao Bai added that this is also very important and cannot be ignored just because Gu Xiaotu has achieved this amazingly.

Otherwise, if other people's rabbits and dogs can't evolve, wouldn't that be inexplicable?

"Don't worry about that!" Gu Xiaotu patted his chest, his expression full of confidence, and said, "There's no secret that I can't tell Rabbit!"

"If I didn't say it... it's probably because I didn't remember!"

As Gu Xiaotu spoke, she hugged the rabbit and rubbed against it twice.

The rabbit-dog gently patted Gu Xiaotu's face with its ears, making a "gurgling" sound in its throat, which was kind of cute.

"It's not difficult to come up with this evolutionary path; the key lies in the process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change."

you do not say!

One hundred thousand people!

A normal person probably wouldn't come into contact with so many people in their entire life.

What's more, it involves having a rabbit and a dog collect the truths and lies of 100,000 people?

But... times have changed!

Things are different now!

Unlike thousands of years ago when information was scarce, modern people have more advanced electronic devices and entertainment options—short videos!

Swish swish!

I receive different information every day.

A couple of hours can easily pass by just browsing. It's a way to kill time, but you don't see anything useful. At most, it provides some spiritual value, and if you look at it for too long, you'll feel like you're wasting your time.

However, this is different for pets like rabbits and dogs, which need to interact with a large number of people and collect information by distinguishing between truth and falsehood.

This is its quick channel to receive news from the world without leaving home.

One hundred thousand... If we work harder, it's entirely possible to finish them in a year.

However, Gu Xiaotu is not a complete homebody. She has to train, live her life, and there are still many things in the real world waiting for her to do.

Watching videos is just one of the ways she passes the time in her spare time.

Besides watching videos, she has other forms of entertainment.

The information age moves so fast.

Information travels even faster.

Qiao Bai wasn't quite sure how many years Gu Xiaotu had been contracting the rabbit-dog, but it was definitely at least two years, maybe three or four. Collecting the truths and lies of 100,000 people through short videos... that's considered slow.

"So... I suggest you watch more short videos with your rabbit and meet more strangers, so that your rabbit can be exposed to more truths and lies," Qiao Bai said seriously.

serious.

How can I not be serious?

This is the method by which Qiao Bai reverse-engineered the new evolutionary path of the rabbit-dog.

However, everyone present, including Fang Junye and the other staff, fell silent after hearing Qiao Bai's words.

"No..." Gu Xiaotu was stunned for a while, as if he had just found his tongue, and stammered, "This...you...Brother Qiao...Professor Bai...are you really not joking?"

Watching videos?

That would allow the rabbit-dog to evolve?

real or fake?

Gu Xiaotu appeared somewhat dazed and confused.

It sounds like a joke!

"That's hilarious! You really think you've gotten lucky and discovered the evolutionary path of honeybugs? That the evolutionary path of all extraordinary creatures is that simple?" Fang Junye fired first. "I'm absolutely laughing at you. If you don't have a brain, don't talk!"

Zhan Mo also snapped out of his daze, glared at Fang Junye, and then looked at Gu Xiaotu, saying, "Sounds pretty simple, doesn't it?"

Well... Gu Xiaotu really can't refute this.

It's more than just simple.

It's very simple.

It couldn't be simpler.

If watching videos can make your pet stronger... great, then all the guilt about wasting time watching videos will disappear completely.

What a waste of time?

This is special training for the pet!

"Since it's simple and doesn't waste much time, why not give it a try?" Zhan Mo said, his eyes sparkling. "Making bold guesses and carefully verifying them is exactly the mindset a professor of pet evolution should have!"

"This guess is very bold, and the process of verifying it is not difficult. Starting today, you will spend six hours a day on your phone in the lab!" Zhan Mo waved his hand and directly made Gu Xiaotu pay to use his phone while at work.

"You've had your pet rabbit for over four years now, haven't you?"

Gu Xiaotu nodded.

"If Professor Xiaobai's guess is correct... we might see results within a month or two!" Zhanmo said excitedly.

Having Gu Xiaotu and the rabbit dog scroll through their phones together wouldn't interfere with their other research projects and observations. Zhan Mo quickly finalized their work for the next two months and prepared to observe and count the number of videos scrolled through.

"We can start now," Qiao Bai said with a smile.

Hmm... 99961, that's not far off, just a few more tries and it'll be enough.

What is divine assistance?

This is probably it.

If Gu Xiaotu goes home today and watches a few more videos with his rabbit and dog, and they evolve while watching, both Gu Xiaotu and Zhan Mo will be completely confused and have no idea what happened.

Working backwards... without knowing the most crucial factor, how can we work backwards?

Without further ado, Gu Xiaotu sat to the side, scrolling through short videos intermittently, glancing at Qiao Bai and Zhan Mo every now and then, feeling somewhat uneasy.

The rabbit-dog lay on Gu Xiaotu's lap, yawning and looking at its phone, with an adorable expression.
