Even though the words used in the thread were extreme and confusing, they still sounded like a student's innocence.
It should have been written by a student from the University of Technology or Dragon City University's machine course. Their standpoint was clear.
But it also accurately touched the most sensitive nerve of the Agricultural University students.
As the Monster University, Agricultural University had always insisted that in the future, Dragon City should focus on biochemical modification technology. They should tame and modify more monsters and etherealized plants so that they could fuse with human civilization.
Sooner or later, the Monster War would end with Earthlings' complete victory.
But it was impossible for Earthlings to kill all the monsters.
Even if humans could kill the giants that were more than one hundred meters long and the mighty dragon-type monsters, it was impossible for them to kill all of them.
But it was impossible for them to get rid of all the jackals, tigers, leopards, pests, insects, rats, and ants. If they did so, it would deal a destructive blow to the incredibly unstable ecosystem in the Other World, and it would devour the tiny and fragile Earth transmigration civilization.
Besides, Dragon City was located in a remote corner and only had a population of tens of millions.
Based on gravity, tides, rotation, and orbital period, the Other World's land mass was about the same as Earth's. In fact, it was even larger than Earth's.
Even if the transmigrators could slaughter all the creatures in Monster Mountain Range, how were they supposed to conquer the Other World, which was one hundred times larger?
If they saw monsters or other creatures native to the Other World, they could just kill them all.
That would not work.
Hence, winning against monsters, intimidating them, modifying them, taming them, and turning the originally stupid and brutal monsters into a vassal race that was loyal to humans like hunting dogs and had a certain degree of intelligence. Then, with the modified monsters, spirit beasts, they could conquer the entire Other World. This was the theory that quite a number of Agricultural University scholars had been advocating all this time.
The entire professional setup in Agricultural University relied on this train of thought to form an upstream and downstream industry chain.
This biochemical modification industry chain was related to the future of countless talented superhumans. It was also related to the livelihood of millions of citizens and the millions of families behind them.
The best example was Agricultural University's monster controller course.
Right now, as long as the students in the monster controller course had enough credits, they had the right to get a registered monster controller license. Based on their rank, they could bring biochemical war beasts of different grades into the streets.
Junior registered beast tamers were allowed to walk on the street with the biochemical beasts refined from nightmarish ferocious beasts.
Middle registered monster controllers could bring biochemical war beasts modified from Hell Beasts to all sorts of public events.
High-grade registered monster controllers could theoretically bring biochemical war beasts modified from Apocalyptic Beasts to appear in front of all the citizens.
Of course, it was very difficult to get a registered monster controller's license. There were requirements on the number of years a person had to work and qi realm to get a high-grade registered monster controller. Most of the people who could become high-grade registered monster controllers were Deity Realm superhumans. Even if they subdued Apocalyptic Beasts, they would not readily appear in front of the citizens.
But according to this article's idea of "restricting biochemical modification technology", the authority of monster controllers would definitely be greatly reduced.
Aside from the monster controller course, the resource course, biochemical course, and ethereal plants course were all the same. They were all grasshoppers in the same industry chain. They were bound together for good or bad.
A stone stirred up a thousand ripples.
Countless Agricultural University students cursed under this article.
[Dragon City was built with gene modification and biochemical technology. During that dark and bloody era, countless intelligent pioneers explored the secrets of genes and awakened to supernatural abilities. They also mastered the ability to modify monsters, which is why Dragon City is what it is today. What are these people thinking? Do they want to destroy their own martial arts?]
[They want to get rid of all biochemical modification technology just because a biochemical pet killed someone? Isn't that the same as giving up eating for fear of choking? Forget about the fact that the truth behind this isolated incident hasn't been fully investigated yet. Even if there's really something wrong with Spirit Creation Creatures' modification technology, they should be sealed off, go bankrupt, or go to jail. What does this have to do with the entire industry?]
[Based on the logic of this article, are runic symbol machines 100% safe and have never had any accidents? That can't be right! I just casually searched around, and I found dozens of news about runic symbol machines having accidents that resulted in major casualties! Could it be that only pets killing people and runic symbol machines killing people isn't killing people?]
[Students, things are very clear. This isn't a simple accident or a crime. It's a major problem that concerns the future development of Dragon City! Should the future Dragon City walk down the path of biochemical modification or runic symbol machines? This is the ultimate question that every Agricultural University student and even every Dragon Citizen should think about seriously! To me, the answer is self-evident. Agricultural University students should also swear to defend biochemical modification technology to the death. This isn't just related to our future, it's also related to Dragon City's future. If we take even half a step back, Dragon City might be doomed in the future!]
Many students applauded the last comment.
There were also people who criticized runic symbol machine technology in an incredibly intense manner. They even found a lot of incredibly gory pictures of runic symbol machines causing accidents and casualties.
These comments stunned Meng Chao.
He did not expect that the students would be so worked up.
But when he thought about it carefully, it was not strange.
If the Survival Committee was really affected by public opinion and decided to limit the development of biochemical modification technology, they would pour a lot of resources into runic symbol machine technology. Then, the jobs of all Agricultural University graduates would be affected.
Based on this angle, the person who wrote the article might be even more evil than monsters. At the very least, monsters did not kill most of the students' parents.
'How strange. Did Dragon City ever have such an intense debate about the future development of Dragon City in my previous life?'
Meng Chao scratched his head.
He didn't think so.
But it might also be because he did not manage to get into university in his previous life and spent all his time practicing his harvesting skills, so he did not pay attention to what was going on outside.
University students were always hot-blooded. When they had nothing to do, they went online to complain.
But if he looked at it from another angle, it might also be because they won the northern offense.
In his previous life, Dragon City lost a lot of powerful fighters, equipment, resources, and future expectations due to the crushing defeat in the northern offense. The cake was gone, so how were people supposed to fight for it?
At that time, Dragon City was basically treading on watermelon skin. It was good that they could struggle to survive, and all their long-term development strategies were just empty talk.
But in this life, due to Meng Chao, Lin Chuan, Qin Hu, Lu Siya, and even the White Spirit's hard work, they won the northern offense. A huge and sweet cake was placed in front of everyone.
How they were supposed to split the cake naturally became the most important problem.
'So, the debate between biochemical modification technology and runic symbol machine technology started because of me!' Meng Chao was trying to make himself look good.
This made him remember a joke.
He said that humans were like porcupines covered in spikes. To keep themselves warm on a cold winter night, they snuggled up to each other. Even if they were stabbed by each other's spikes, they did not care.
But when the temperature rose slightly, the porcupines would not be able to withstand the pain of being stabbed by the spikes, and they would distance themselves from each other. In fact, they would even view each other as enemies.
They could go through thick and thin together, but they could not share the riches. That was the general meaning.
'When you press the button on the gourd, a ladle will appear. Once you solve the old problem, a new one will appear. Why is it so difficult for everyone to be united and develop obediently?'
Meng Chao scratched his head.
The topic of whether biochemical modification technology or runic symbol machine technology was better was too big and profound. It was not something he could give an answer to.
Besides, this sort of debate might not be a bad thing. At the very least, it could make all the citizens concerned about Dragon City's future and form a basic concept of how to survive and develop in the era after the Monster War. They would not be as muddle-headed as they were in his previous life and wander around aimlessly like blind people.
Meng Chao did not want to join the students' heated keyboard war.
He was still more concerned about the case itself.
He brought up a few bloody pictures of the victims and enlarged them. Then, he used image enhancement software to increase the clarity of the pictures. Meng Chao studied them carefully for another five minutes.
He thought about it for a while before he called Lu Siya.
"Hello?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was very languid, as if it was drunk and not fully awake.
Meng Chao was a little stunned. "It's me. I'm not bothering you, Big Sis Ya, right?"
"I know it's you, or else I wouldn't have picked up," Lu Siya said lazily.
"You don't know how many people I've looked for and how much effort I've put in to make sure that we have the right to mine first. Fortunately, I've settled everything. Don't worry, we saved each other's lives. If I have a share, you will always have a share."
"Thank you, Big Sis Ya," Meng Chao said.
"But I'm calling you today to ask about the abnormal beast research department."
Lu Siya was silent for a while before she said airily, "Don't be impatient. I want to take revenge for Lin Chuan, but the only clue we have is the three holes on the White Spirit's spine. No matter how powerful the abnormal beast research department is, they need time to slowly investigate it."
"I know."
Meng Chao thought about it for a while. "What happened today has nothing to do with Big Brother Lin or the White Spirit. I just want to ask, Big Sis Ya, do you know about the case of the biochemical pets killing people in Blessed Paradise?"
"I heard about it. Why?" Lu Siya yawned.
"I think there's something strange about it. It doesn't seem like an accident," Meng Chao said.
"Of course it's not an accident," Lu Siya said.
"That's why I've already handed it over to the Supernatural Tower and the adjudicator court to handle it."
"Isn't the abnormal beast research department going to interfere in this matter? After all, biochemical pets have a certain degree of intelligence, so they can be considered abnormal beasts."
Lu Siya could not help but laugh.
"Listen, I also want to solve a major case beautifully so that I can have a good time in the abnormal beast research department, but the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise isn't the best choice," she explained patiently to Meng Chao.
"First of all, this case involves Spirit Creation Creatures and Heavenly Works Machines, along with the various forces of power that support biochemical modification technology and runic symbol machine technology. Even if I have Sky Pillar Corporation as my support, there's no need for me to be dragged into this mess.
"More importantly, the biochemical pets reared by normal families have low intelligence. It's too much of a stretch for them to be considered abnormal beasts.
"There's a lot of evidence that someone is behind this, and there's a high chance that it's a crime committed by a superhuman. Since the case has already been handed over to the adjudicator court, without solid evidence, the research department won't overstep their authority. This involves the jurisdiction between two departments, and it's a very sensitive matter. Do you understand?"
"I understand," Meng Chao said.
"But I have evidence."
