Wizard: I devour the stars with swarms of insects.

"You said in class that the reason for biological evolution is 'use it or lose it'. Any organ or part that is frequently used will evolve and be passed down from generation to generation."

"However, even very strong parents can give birth to very weak offspring. If giraffes in the forest are kept in captivity and forced to eat low-lying leaves all the time, their necks will not eventually shorten."

"And previously, as you requested, I completed three full life cycle experiments in the laboratory."

"Those experimental Artemisia saprophytes, even in the culture medium environment, have no natural enemies."

"After adding the suspension of the Rot Star Grass, it still caused many genetic changes when they reproduced, resulting in the evolution of 'fins,' 'teeth,' and 'scales.'"

"However, this is not because they used any organs or parts in the laboratory culture environment, but because the mutations occurred naturally."

"Therefore, in my opinion, your concept of 'use it or lose it' that you discussed in class may not be entirely accurate. There may be other reasons that lead to biological evolution."

Wayne has not yet directly and completely refuted Morse's conclusions about biological evolution.

This is because it was the result of Morse's teacher's experiment and research over a long period of time.

For wizards who pursue truth and knowledge and have a scientific and cautious attitude, the results of experiments are sometimes just as important as their lives.

If I were to directly state now that Professor Morse's conclusions are all wrong, I worry that Professor Morse might not be able to accept it for a while.

Furthermore, there is a possibility that one might become angry and offend the other party.

So, let's take it one step at a time. Let's start by gently agreeing with part of the other party's theory. At least... that will make it easier for Professor Morse to accept, right?

"Oh?" Sure enough, upon hearing what Wayne was saying, Mentor Morse did not resist, but instead showed interest in his eyes.

With a scaly arm supporting his chin, he looked thoughtful: "Go on."

"Yes, mentor." Wayne paused, then continued, "In my view, biological evolution may be a natural process; they naturally and continuously exhibit various characteristics and behaviors."

"In nature, if an evolved trait is beneficial to their survival, it will survive; if an evolved trait is harmful to them, they will be eliminated by nature and cannot continue."

"There is a certain evolutionary 'element' inherent in living organisms, and mutations will occur even without doing anything. For example, when humans reproduce, the height, weight, and appearance of children are not fixed. Even two parents who are not good-looking may have a very beautiful child."

"The evolution of organisms itself has no standard of 'good' or 'bad,' only that some things are beneficial to their survival, and some are detrimental to their survival. Then the external environment eliminates them. Natural selection, survival of the fittest, everything is the result of natural selection... Teacher, this is my opinion."

Wayne said.

Now, having heard what Wayne was saying, Mentor Morse had completely stopped what he was doing.

After getting up, he paced back and forth in the laboratory.

"Biobial life inherently possesses certain evolutionary 'elements,' and naturally evolves. Ultimately, those that survive are the result of natural selection? Hmm... that's an interesting speculation, but it doesn't sound unreasonable."

"Mentor Morse said."

I started trying to follow what Wayne had said and consider the problems and various "difficulties" that had occurred in my previous experiments.

"Indeed, if this theory is followed, some of the situations that occurred in previous experiments can be explained."

"But... what exactly is that 'element' within a living organism that causes evolution? Why does it cause organisms to continuously evolve? How does this happen...?"

Professor Morse muttered to himself as he paced back and forth in the laboratory.

Upon hearing Morse's question, Wayne almost blurted out that the element of evolution was actually "genes".

Living organisms contain chromosomes and DNA, and gene mutations naturally occur when DNA combines.

However, these previous scientific research theories are too profound and extensive, and constitute a complete system of scientific knowledge.

It is an experimental theory that was finally summarized by countless scientists on Earth, generation after generation, year after year.

If I were to reveal all of this now, as a wizard apprentice, my mentor Morse would certainly wonder where he got this knowledge from.

I don't want to be dissected and studied by Professor Morse!

Although the Wizarding Academy in the Black Forest City is subject to the White Wizarding Association's ban.

It is strictly forbidden to engage in any activities related to human experimentation when conducting witchcraft experiments or performing witchcraft skills.

But rules are rigid. If a formal wizard were to commit such heinous acts as secretly conducting human experiments behind closed doors, who would know?

By the time the White Wizarding Association discovers this and intervenes, it will be too late...

So Wayne swallowed the rest of his sentence and didn't say it.

I can't tell all of these things to my mentor Morse right now, or tell him everything at once.

Now, Professor Morse is clearly interested in his new theory explaining biological evolution.

The goat paced back and forth in place, its vertical pupils revealing excitement and interest.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that my student's evolutionary perspective was quite novel, an angle I had never considered before.

"Professor Morse, I've finished speaking. Please go ahead with your business. I'll take my leave now and won't bother you any longer."

Seeing Morse so excitedly thinking about it, he didn't even care about himself.

Wayne then bowed respectfully, preparing to take his leave.

Just as Wayne turned around to leave, Morse's voice rang out from behind.

"Wait a minute."

"What's wrong, teacher?"

"Your idea is excellent; it's a perspective my supervisor has never considered before, and it's very helpful for my experimental research... You've done my supervisor a huge favor!"

"Professor Morse said happily."

This was the first time Wayne had ever seen his mentor so excited and thrilled.

"Well then, since you've helped your teacher, I certainly won't treat you unfairly. Just tell me, what do you want, or what experimental materials do you need? As long as I have them and can provide them, I can give them to you," Professor Morse said with a smile.
