"Let's not tell you where it came from. How did you tell that it was not neutered?" Mu You looked at Chen Yichuan curiously.

The sterilization method in the star spirit world is not the physical castration on earth, but a magical method. There should be no difference in appearance between before and after sterilization.

"For silver owls that have lost the ability to reproduce, the color of the feathers at the end of the wings will be slightly darker than the feathers on other parts of the wings. This difference is difficult to distinguish from the appearance. Only those who have been dealing with silver owls for a long time can see it." Song Wenjing replaced Chen Yichuan.

Answered this question.

She was also very surprised when she saw the silver owl in Mu You's hand, because as far as she knew, the supply of silver owls in the Celestial Spirit World was monopolized, and the silver owls that could be seen on the market were all sterilized varieties.

The silver owls in their base are all neutered silver owls purchased from pet dealers. They have only seen real wild silver owls in photos.

"I see..."

Mu You nodded. It was really impossible for him to know such details. This made him even more interested in the information the old man said, but it was a pity that they would not sell it.

"Can you quarantine this kind of silver owl?" Mu You asked.

"Of course." Song Wenjing nodded.

"That's good, you check it first and I'll take it."

"Are there other animals?" Chen Yichuan asked.

"Ah, that's not true." Mu You turned around and entered the backpack again. This time, Chen Yichuan and Song Wenjing both subconsciously approached the entrance of the backpack and looked inside.

As a result, before he could find the doorway, Mu You walked out again, holding a fish tank in his hand. Coral grass was planted in the tank. Next to the coral cluster was a strange insect-shaped creature, only the size of a fingertip.

"Okeda!" Chen Yichuan said the name of the creature in one breath.

"What an eye!" Mu You gave a thumbs up.

Chen Yichuan was speechless. Is this questioning his professional ability?

They have been studying alien creatures for two years, and they are familiar with almost all abnormal animals with names.

"Is this thing common?" Mu You asked.

He has only caught one of this bug so far, and it doesn't look good. Of course, he has no intention of selling it. At this time, he just wants to take the opportunity to take it out and consult a professional.

"It's relatively rare, but it's not impossible to catch it. However, it's not easy to reproduce. It needs to simulate the environment where deep-sea corals grow. Especially on earth, it's basically difficult to raise them artificially." Looking at the rare magical animals that were brought out one after another, Chen Yichuan said:

Mu You's attitude has improved a lot.

"Is there more?" Chen Yichuan asked proactively.

"Wait for me to get it..." Mu said and put it into the backpack again.

But he took only two steps and stepped back: "Well, it's a bit much... How about you come in and see for yourself?"

Chen Yichuan and Song Wenjing had wanted to do this for a long time. When they received permission, they both nodded immediately and stepped through the door.

This backpack was of course the large backpack that Mu You was going to use to open a store. As soon as they entered the space, the first thing they noticed was the chocobos racing on the track in the distance.

"Chocobo!"

Song Wenjing exclaimed, and then looked at Mu You in surprise: "So it was you who posted that video!"

"Oh? Have you seen it too?" Mu You asked. It seems that his video has been widely spread.

"Of course, your video has been edited by many people and reposted on major platforms. Many people in my circle of friends are posting it. It's hard not to see it." Song Wenjing said.

"What video?" Chen Yichuan was a little confused. He didn't pay much attention to these Internet hot spots.

"A video of chocobo racing has become very popular these days." Song Wenjing explained, and then she saw a row of fish tanks not far away, and quickly approached it.

"Ice Angel! Light Demon! Color-Changing Fish..." Song Wenjing called out the names of the fish in the tank one by one.

Mu You found that he really underestimated the knowledge reserves of these professional scholars.

When he was getting started in potions, he studied one of Vivian's books on animal materials, but there were still many animals that he didn't recognize when he first saw them.

Discern with the Omniscient Crystal.

As a result, everyone here seems to be able to name them all, and everyone is a master of magic zoology.

Chen Yichuan acted much calmer than Song Wenjing, scanning the creatures in the space one by one.

What made him more satisfied was that these animals were in good condition, and except for fish, they were basically free to move around. This showed that the breeders were feeding well, at least they were not the kind that crazily squeezed the animals for profit and treated the animals as surplus.

Tool merchant.

But he soon lost his composure.

While scanning a certain corner of the space, Chen Yichuan suddenly noticed a white radish-like creature on the grass over there, with its back to them, buried in the corner over there, pulling at the grass with both hands, seemingly digging a hole.<

/p>

"Mandrake?"

Chen Yichuan immediately let out a low breath and instinctively walked quickly to get a clear look.

Mandrake was just moved to this new space by Mu You this morning and is busy digging a hole for himself.

While I was busy, I suddenly felt something moving behind me. When I looked back, I saw an old man's face, staring straight at it. His eyes were like a hungry wolf seeing a sheep, and I was immediately frightened.

It was so annoying that I subconsciously screamed: "Wow..."

But as soon as it called out, it felt that its mouthpiece was stuck and it could no longer make a sound.

In the distance, Mu You put away his wand and looked at Song Wenjing on the side with a strange look: "How reliable is your dean? The sound of mandrake can cause coma. This should be common sense, right?"

"Ahem, of course I know this, the dean just did it accidentally..."

Song Wenjing was also very embarrassed. She didn't expect that the old dean would make such a low-level mistake.

But she can actually understand this, because there is only one mandrake in the entire base, and it is an old mandrake. It has a relatively docile personality and does not yell casually.

This was their first time meeting such a young Mandrake, so it was no wonder that the old dean was excited.

Just now, Mu You used the throat lock in time to silence Mandrake's voice, but they still heard the brief sound before. That energetic voice, it was obvious that Mandrake was not only young, but

Still very healthy.

"Speaking of which, you are too unprofessional. Mandrakes are very timid animals, especially afraid of humanoid creatures. Shouldn't they generally be isolated with soundproofing devices?" Song Wenjing said.

"Ah, my mandrake is more... outgoing."

Mu Youn walked over there while talking. At this time, Mandrake was still shivering in the pit, looking up and down. It wasn't that he didn't want to run, but he was blocked in the corner by the old man and couldn't get out, otherwise

Gone long ago.

As soon as he found Mu You approaching, Mandrake hurriedly ran behind him as if he had seen a savior, grabbed his trouser legs and hid.

"Mandrake actually relies on humans? How amazing... Is this a unique characteristic of young mandrakes?" Song Wenjing was surprised when she saw this scene, and then took out a small notebook from her body and jotted it down hastily.

Got something.

"Uh... I'm afraid this isn't..." Lin Xue next to her looked a little funny.

She knows how Mandrake usually treats Mu You. Usually when he meets Mu You, he is like a primary school student meeting the school guidance director, and he always stays away.

Today, it can only be said that it has encountered a more terrifying two-legged beast. Relatively speaking, Mu You is more trustworthy. At most, he can give it an injection and draw blood without actually hurting it.

Chen Yichuan also knew that his move was a mistake and made the young man laugh. His face turned red and he immediately took a few steps back. However, he still couldn't help but look at Mu You and asked, "Where did you get these creatures from?"

Coming?"

"Some of them were picked up by chance. The fish were caught in the game and sent back through the door... In addition, I signed an agreement with a local pet shop in the Celestial Spirit World, and I can buy some unneutered fish from them.

"Mysterious creatures." Mu Youyou.

Why does he have so many magical animals? If he doesn't tell people, there will always be doubts. It's better to tell him himself. His contract with the black cat pet store is a perfect cover.

"

Oh?"

Chen Yichuan nodded when he heard this and didn't ask any more questions.

Being able to connect with a local pet dealer from another world was a personal encounter, not forced, and he could only envy it.

However, it is also a good thing for them that the other party has such channels. As a biological research department, they may need to find cooperation with the other party in the future.

Chen Yichuan's attitude towards Mu You became better. He no longer regarded him as an ordinary pet dealer. He left his backpack to get various professional instruments and began to check the animals in the space one by one.

The so-called inspection is not complicated, there are mainly two aspects.

The first is to identify species, clearly classify organisms, and determine whether they are beneficial or harmful organisms. Organisms that can be approved as commodities can only be organisms that are not dangerous to humans.

The second is to detect some specific spreading germs and clarify the biological food chain. Some magical creatures with excessive reproductive capacity are released on a large scale to the earth, which can easily destroy the original biological chain of the earth. As the supervision department, they must estimate

Avoid these risks.

There is no problem with Mu You in these two aspects. He has special sterilization tools in his hand. The animals sold must be neutered. Those that are not sterilized are kept in the store and raised by himself to prevent the spread of the disease.

If you go out, there will be no problems affecting the ecological chain.

Each inspection is proceeding smoothly.

However, not long after the inspection started, Song Wenjing suddenly let out a cry in the distance.

"Dean, come and see what kind of creature this is?"

"What?" Chen Yichuan was a little surprised. Song Wenjing was considered one of his best students, and there were creatures she didn't even recognize?
