Playing with life in the name of research is not uncommon in the fields of spell and engineering. Perhaps this was a bad behavior of "blasphemy" in the past ethical thoughts, but today such research is undoubtedly opening up a new future for modern society.

Is this good? At least now, Liqi has no way to assert that this era is much different from the past.

It has to be said that Hermia and Curt's understanding of spell research is still in an era when the war had not yet broken out decades ago - it may even be much earlier than this. At least now, the word "heretic" is rarely used to refer to the sorcerer in certain fields.

In this era, "blasphemy" is used to hinder the research of spells or engineers. It is estimated that only countries that have been blocked by two or three hundred years behind the entire world will have this phenomenon. From medicine to various daily applied disciplines, the behavior that was once denied "blasphemy" was actually studied by researchers from all sides and found that there are too many differences from the general cognition in the past.

Where is the end of this world?

From a long past, people who study various schools of thought were thinking about this issue, and they eventually found that the more they came into contact with, the unsolved confusion appeared in front of them at a faster rate. Things that once thought were "truth" would often be overthrown by their successors.

It has to be said that the past 100 years has indeed been an era of rapid development. The progress of various disciplines has almost turned the world into another form. In a world that has gradually become closely linked, various research has accumulated more development than the previous thousand years have been added up.

Indeed, the ever-changing development has made people tolerate most researchers, but some research still makes people feel repulsive. The most eye-catching one is the study of the life spell school of chimeric, studying the traits of organisms and organically adjusting them - this has become a field that many colleges have been competing for research in recent decades. At the same time, the opposition has also become strong.

The recent improvements have caused a stir, not to mention transforming animals. Many conservatives believe that organisms that are forced to be improved by artificial means will have a great impact on the natural environment and at the same time endanger the safety of humans who come into contact with them.

This may be an improvement—at least they no longer use religion or ethics to hinder technological development. But their goals are almost the same as their predecessors for thousands of years. They cannot accept the rapidly changing world, so they have to use greater strength to suppress it.

It is true that such research will not stop easily - no matter how stressed, almost no one in the research room will be easily affected. Unfortunately, the old man's research seems to have been affected. Judging from the observed signs, he has a deep resentment towards this.

She didn't know what the old man had studied before he could "touch the taboos". However, if he mentioned the research of "artificial life forms", even the magician would laugh at him. After all, such research is just a dream with current technology.

This is different from the necromancer or mechanic puppet that gives objects a false "life". The first reaction of the spell when talking about "artificial life forms" is almost necessarily a living thing at the level of "little man in a bottle", using many organic matter related to life, made out of thin air.

An alchemist and advanced magician whose name is so old that he can bite his tongue when he pronounces it, that alchemy is the technology of transforming various natural raw materials into finished products that are beneficial to humans. According to legend, he is also the first person to successfully create "artificial life forms".

This is just a legend. The legend has been forgotten. The magician who can only be called "the sinner of the Western Land" was once a doctor with a skilled medical skills. For some reason, he studied alchemy in order to create the most perfect life form, but ultimately led to a huge disaster.

In alchemy, life is considered to be composed of three things: soul and spirit. In other words, as long as these things can be refined, human beings can be born without relying on the mother and fetus. But because

Having said that, even if these three are successfully refined, they will easily create an extreme behavior that violates the laws of nature and social ethics. Therefore, it is also regarded as a taboo. Therefore, at the end of the legend, the alchemist failed. A city, including him, was transformed into ashes.

Although this is the legend, studying "taboos" has become a common occurrence for alchemists. Since the birth of the oldest alchemy, when they were looking for stone-to-stone-making medicine and immortal medicine, alchemists have challenged social taboos more than once.

So if someone tells Liqi that a group of alchemists are studying "artificial life forms" somewhere, she will only nod her expressionlessly and reply, "Oh, that's it, don't forget to notify me when they succeed."

But she is not the only one who has such a reaction. At least most of the magicians' first reaction when they hear that someone is studying this kind of thing is "let it go".

But... the doctor who is also a spell researcher, is also good at alchemy, and is also obsessed with studying "artificial life forms" - what is the relationship between this old man and the "sinner of the Western Land"? Liqi wants to regard this matter as a coincidence, but she always has a little concern.

So these specimens are the failures of the old man in conducting research - what did the old man do during the research process that forced his research to be terminated?

Chimeric different living organisms and finally come up with a new creature... Although this is a very advanced technology, it is still quite far from creating "artificial living organisms". What you see on these specimens is just someone playing with the flesh and blood of living creatures.

Liqi reached out and picked up a glass jar placed at her hand and observed carefully. In this cold transparent glass jar, there was a mouse that was thinner than the usual test mouse, but suddenly a pair of wings that seemed to be burning were growing on it.

If the little rat in this specimen is a species, Liqi can be sure that she has not seen it in any museum magazine. But if she only looks at the burning wings, Liqi can tell at a glance what kind of creature it belongs to.

This is the wings of the flame demon butterfly, a cluster of flames that spread their wings and fly.

It is widely distributed in the Dominion of Osatalia and the grasslands at the southern end of the Old Continent. It is probably only the size of a little fingernail with huge wings. Whether in terms of pattern or shape, their wings look like flames, and the hot light and temperature contribute to this impression.

A famous painter once painted a painting depicting a large group of flame demon butterflies dancing - it was simply flying flames, and the red and hot wings left a fiery stream of light. When they crossed the sky, they were like a burning cloud rushing towards them.

The wings of the Flame Demon Butterfly have been processed by Liqi for no less than a thousand of them. The wings picked from those beautiful butterflies have wonderful properties. They can not only maintain the warmth of the potion, but also be used to supplement the lack of "flame" properties in some materials.

If these wings that still retain the complete shape grow on the Flame Demon Butterfly, it would be normal - but they were inserted into a little mouse, and the heat could still be clearly felt through the cold glass jar, which seemed a bit strange.

What is the point of doing this kind of thing?

Liqi was quite surprised by the appearance of this chimeric beast - after all, this was far from the chimeric beast she remembered.

Generally speaking, when talking about chimeric beasts, even people who are not spells will immediately react to a monster composed of different animals. Its shape is often the head of a ferocious beast, the minions of a snake or the wings of a raptor, and most of these monsters are emitting flames like thunder.

So what happened to this little rat with butterfly wings? In her opinion, this chimeric beast that is neither functional nor correspondingly beautiful is necessary. It is like a researcher who suddenly had a bloody whim and just put the two materials together.

If it is not for showing off one's own skills to some people, it is the pride of making a finished product as you wish because of the skills you have. But no matter what, Liqi can't have the slightest favor to the weird chimeric beast.

Her eyes swept through other glass jars in turn. Except for the little mouse with the wings of the Flame Demon butterfly, it was difficult to feel good about other jars. Whether it was a nine-headed lizard or a big bird with an unknown animal's head, they were all unknown creations. Looking at them, people could feel the somewhat pathetic creativity of the person who created them.

Walking around the room, all you can see are these glass jars containing strange chimeric beasts, and there is nothing else worth noting. Liqi shook her head. Now is not the time to continue wasting time here. During this period, the old man and the short and fat doctor had run to the real studio and might have begun to promote their plans.

Just as she was about to leave the house, she smelled a violent stench coming from nearby, like a rotten fish floating in stagnant water. Almost in an instant, the magic probe was released again, but there was still no reaction of any living creature nearby.

It seems that the "smell" that is approaching is not emitted from the living creature. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
