In the biological laboratory, Fang Ning followed a laboratory director and was accompanied by many researchers. After a quick tour, he requested for a comprehensive study of the "Modern Biological System".
The laboratory director's eyes lit up and adjusted his glasses. "Venerable One, I'm not talented, but I'm willing to recommend myself. I was once hired as a tenured professor by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and taught 11 doctoral students …"
Before he could finish, a deputy director beside him said, "Venerable One, I'm not talented, but I'm willing to recommend myself. I was once hired as a tenured professor by the University of Cambridge …"
The other researchers' eyes lit up and they were eager to try.
If they could become the Venerable Dragon God's teacher, the benefits would be undeniable.
This was many times better than the emperor's tutors in the past.
As the top elites, they were definitely not stubborn people. They understood very well that the arrival of the Era of Mystery meant that power reigned supreme.
If they could become the teacher of the strongest powerhouse on Earth and have the title of a master, how many benefits would there be in the future?
If they were not careful, they might even have a long life.
If they were not afraid of making too much noise and offending the powerhouse, as well as knowing that there was a gap between them and the two directors, the others would have already rushed forward.
Fang Ning saw this and was secretly pleased.
"See that, System? This is the legendary treatment of the protagonist!" He said proudly, "Teachers are fighting to take in disciples."
"Yes, you're soft-hearted after taking you in as a disciple. If anything happens to him in the future, you'll need me to activate Thousand-mile Assistance to save him. I'm the one who's tired, and you're the one who enjoys the benefits. "Sir System said resentfully.
"You're just as my precious said, you're stingy. This is a win-win situation, okay? To put it bluntly, whether we can complete the journey of the God of Plagues ahead of time depends on these people. "Fang Ning said disdainfully.
"As long as you don't slack off, I'll be satisfied."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Fang Ning said confidently.
If he did not defeat the gods and deities, he would not feel at ease. What if he was tricked one day? Would it not be depressing?
Thus, Fang Ning raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and said slowly, "It's rare for all of you to be so proactive. This is not a problem, I can teach 24 hours a day. Everyone, according to your own schedule and your own specialties, come up with a unified lesson plan and take turns to teach me."
When everyone heard this, they felt slightly disappointed. If this was the case, their status as teachers would be greatly reduced.
A PhD student, a postgraduate student's mentor, and a student's teacher were two different concepts.
However, when they thought about it, they realized that there were benefits to doing this. At least everyone had a share. If it was before, most people would not have been able to squeeze in.
Thus, everyone's faces lit up with joy and they nodded repeatedly.
The laboratory director immediately said, "Venerable One, you're right. There are many classifications in modern biology and they cover a wide range of subjects, including cells, prokaryotes, viruses, protists, fungi, plants, animals, heredity, the origin and evolution of life, and many more. It's definitely difficult for one person to cover all of them. I'll discuss with everyone and come up with a teaching plan as soon as possible so that the Venerable One can fully grasp this subject in the shortest time possible and enter the practical application level."
"That's great. Thank you, Director Zhang. If there's anything you need, just let Xue Ba know," Fang Ning ordered.
…
Two days later, Fang Ning returned to class.
However, after just one lesson, he realized that this was not going to work.
"Sigh, it's too easy. I can understand these things the moment I listen to them. My learning efficiency is too low." Fang Ning immediately shook his head.
After class, he said to Director Zhang, who was in charge of the first lesson, "It seems like the way we're teaching is still a little too slow. Director, please give me a learning plan and a corresponding book series. It's best if you can let me have a look at your many years of teaching notes. That way, I'll be able to absorb it faster."
Director Zhang was shocked. When he was teaching just now, he had already taken into account the strong learning ability of cultivators, so he purposely condensed the content five times that of a normal lesson. He did not expect Fang Ning to still be dissatisfied.
He was shocked. He had a vague feeling that in the future, not only would cultivators be respected on the battlefield, even in the scientific world, if one was not a cultivator, one would not be able to compete.
The learning ability and lifespan of cultivators far exceeded that of ordinary people. Therefore, ordinary people could only do some work that cultivators were unwilling to do …
If this was the case for cultivators, then what kind of learning ability did the gods and deities of the Upper Realm have?
A sense of fear rose in his heart. There might not be a place for him to live in the future.
It seemed like he had to place his hopes on his own children.
However, why did he always feel a sense of unwillingness?
Director Zhang forcibly suppressed this emotion and smiled. "Since the Venerable One wants to self-study, that's good too. I'll discuss with the others and contact my former students. After organizing their learning experiences over the years, I'll hand them over to you."
"That's great. Thank you, Teacher Zhang." Fang Ning said sincerely.
Director Zhang saw this and felt slightly comforted. No matter what, being able to rely on this big tree would mean that he would always be ahead of his peers.
However, it was time to consider a transition.
Fang Ning gave a few more instructions and gave him a contact number. Then, he left the Scientific Academy for Vitality and threw his body to the System, waiting for the System to send him the self-study subjects.
"Don't bother learning by yourself. Can it even understand that stupid book? In the future, it'll take over the position of the God of Plagues, not you. "Sir System said in disdain.
"Nonsense. If I learn it, the baby will naturally learn it too. Although it was created by you, it's better than its master. This is the advantage of evolution. "Fang Ning said proudly.
"Hmph, since you like it so much, why didn't you agree when I told you I was useless last time and asked you to create a small system?" Sir System said in disdain.
"Uh, that's not the same thing. I'm not someone who likes the new and gets tired of the old." Fang Ning said confidently.
"… That's more like it." Sir System was instantly satisfied.
While they were talking, an email notification sounded on the computer.
Fang Ning opened the mailbox. After taking a look, it turned out to be a book catalog sent by Director Zhang.
The other party was really proactive. It had only been less than an hour since he left.
Fang Ning glanced at it. There were hundreds of books in total, and they were all linked. Clicking on them would lead to a professional online library. It was very convenient.
There were also some explanations below.
"Venerable One, read these basic books first. Then, I'll formulate a specialized learning plan for you based on your knowledge. I guarantee that you'll master the entire modern biology system as soon as possible and be able to understand the research direction of modern biology."
"This person is really not bad." Fang Ning said in satisfaction.
"Hmph, he just sees your value. If you were useless, he wouldn't care about you." Sir System said in disdain.
Fang Ning was speechless. "That's normal, okay? If you're useless, then you have to change yourself. You can't expect others to look up to you. "
"Uh, you're quite open-minded. Why didn't you have this awareness when you were useless before?" Sir System exposed Fang Ning's past.
"Hiss … Get lost. Don't expose my shortcomings. There's actually a reason why I was useless in the past." Fang Ning fell into deep thought. His face showed a blank expression.
"Uh, you don't look right. Do you want me to examine you?" Sir System said kindly.
"Thank you, but there's no need." Fang Ning collected his thoughts and began to seriously read the first book, Introduction to Modern Biology.
