"Ling?"
Yin Yi felt soone’s gaze and tilted her head, looking back at Lisa with eyes that shone with a fla-like light.
"Her? She’s the evolved form of the Silver Lotus Wood. If you want to raise a Soul Beast like this, you can start with a Silver Lotus Wood."
Han Ning patted Yin Yi’s back and pointed to a Tree Demon next to a passing student. "They are a first-stage evolution. She is a second-stage evolution."
He had already tested it. The panel could only help analyze the evolutionary branches of Soul Beasts he had already contracted.
Yin Yi and Egg Pancake had each gone down a different path, so he could now summarize two detailed evolutionary thods. He planned to compile this information and upload it to the academy’s "database."
If Lisa wanted to raise a "little Yin Yi," it shouldn’t be a problem.
Of course, every Soul Beast is a unique individual. Just as no two leaves in the world are identical, Soul Beasts of the sa race will develop different personalities based on their Beast Master’s temperant and their daily living environnt.
"Silver Lotus Wood? You an those plain little flowers by the roadside? They can actually evolve into sothing like this?" Lisa’s eyes widened. "Then why can’t we humans evolve?"
"Who says humans can’t?" Han Ning smiled. "After you form a contract with a Soul Beast, your Spiritual Power and physical fitness will grow stronger and stronger. When your Spiritual Power reaches a terrifying level, enough to interfere with reality, wouldn’t you say you’ve evolved?"
Putting the future aside, he felt he was already very different from ordinary humans. Not only was his body comparable to that of an Entry-Level Soul Beast, but more importantly, there was his Spiritual Power. It could allow a person to predict danger in advance, like a character from The Matrix, and even use it to launch attacks against enemies.
"I understand. Thank you."
Han Ning added,
"If you want to leave the dormitory area and move around freely, you’d best form a contract with a Wood Type Soul Beast. Based on our research, Silver Lotus Wood is the most effective for air Purification. The Purple Vine Tree is a bit less effective, but it can still basically guarantee a Beast Master’s freedom of movent."
Unless they discovered a Wood Type Soul Beast that was naturally higher-grade than the Silver Lotus Wood, for ordinary people who had just transmigrated here, the Silver Lotus Wood was still the best choice.
...
The construction of the geothermal power station was soon on track.
To help the researchers better conduct their studies across various fields, the academy’s combat teams moved the several hundred undamaged computers and few servers from the computer science building to the dormitory area.
With the equipnt now available, building an intranet for internal communication within the academy was a simple matter. This would allow researchers to contact each other through the network, greatly improving the efficiency of their communication.
Building the intranet was a massive undertaking, especially the wiring. The network cables throughout the academy had been damaged by the great flood and had to be completely relaid. For now, they could only gather the high-performance computers together and build a new, dedicated server room for research and data storage.
If manufacturing firearms was an extrely difficult task, then a polytechnic institute had everything required to build a small local area network.
During the initial period after their transmigration, they had neither the ti nor the right environnt to systematically organize the electronic data stored within the academy.
But now, with a brief respite, Dean Wu suggested that everyone, in their spare ti, do their best to collect all kinds of knowledge from the computer hard drives in the dormitory and teaching areas. He instructed them to consolidate the information, categorize it by academic discipline, and take it to the server room to be uploaded to the academy’s server.
As humans from 21st-century Blue Star, they all knew how much computers could help with all kinds of research.
Raising Soul Beasts didn’t seem to have any connection to computers, but those with computer-related knowledge could absolutely use what they had learned to empower the field of Soul Beast studies.
Han Ning had heard that Teacher Zhou and his team were preparing to develop a Soul Beast Atlas app that incorporated image recognition technology.
They planned to manually enter the Soul Beast Atlas compiled by the Yinsaike and the Burning Fire Race into the computers, then compile that data into a mobile app to be installed on everyone’s phone.
In the future, when they were out exploring and encountered an unknown Soul Beast, they could just point their phone at it, and it would automatically display all relevant information.
If they found a species of Soul Beast not yet recorded in the atlas, they could also upload it to the database to await a version update and unified rollout.
Of course, all of this was predicated on having relatively accurate structural models of the Soul Beasts. For now, it was just an idea, and there were many more important things to do.
For example, installing caras in the Insect Nest area to remotely monitor the situation inside.
Using big data to analyze the composition of the insects’ food and researching the possibility of optimizing it.
Using computers to automatically monitor feeding, watering, lighting, temperature, egg collection, and waste removal, which could save a great deal of labor and increase the insects’ egg-laying rate.
Computers could also be used to record and process insect-related data, providing optimal thods for selective breeding and population managent.
What Han Ning hadn’t expected was that computer technology, which had seed the least useful at first, was actually one of the first fields to provide substantial help to the academy.
After lunch, in the afternoon, Dean Wu took Han Ning, along with Leon and his daughter, to the server room on the third floor of Dormitory Building A.
