"Unfortunate? Poor?" On the other side of the bonfire, as one of Chen Mo's earliest fans, Qiao Cheng naturally liked Chen Mo's elf science popularization session in the live broadcast room. Therefore, when Chen Mo started his on-site science popularization class, Qiao Cheng will naturally not miss it.
He acted like an ordinary audience member. After hearing Chen Mo's unique description of Yin Bu, a look of confusion immediately appeared on his face.
In Qiao Cheng's view, it is clear that there are eight evolutionary directions, why do you still say it is pitiful? It can’t be that the elven race Yin Bu has difficulty choosing, right?
Facing the confusion between Qiao Cheng and the live broadcast room, Chen Mo shook his head.
"Yin Bu doesn't have a problem with selection. Those who have difficulty choosing are mostly human trainers who have Yin Bu."
"As for pity and misfortune."
"I mentioned before when I was educating everyone about the shape of the area. The elves themselves are a magical species that can change its shape as the environment changes."
"However, one thing I may not have mentioned to you before is that the formation of regional patterns is not as simple as imagined."
"Like humans and other species in this world, the vast majority of elves have gone through a long period of evolution before becoming what we see today. In other words, the elves still exist in this world. , are all screened out by nature. Over a long period of time, the genetic genes in their bodies have already tended to be stable. Therefore, only a very small number of elves whose genes have not yet been completely stabilized will gradually change due to changes in the environment. Transform into a special regional form.”
"This condition can be said to be quite harsh. The right time, location, and even the individual elves' conditions must be taken into consideration." Qiao Cheng listened to Chen Mo's popular science and nodded silently.
In fact, there is an example of a regional form at the scene, Zoroark, which is evolving into the ghost Zoroark. Qiao Cheng and even the viewers in the live broadcast room know some of the stories that happened in this form.
The extreme environment in the original tree of the world, the desire to survive, and the energy of death allowed the ghost Zoroark to be born.
This condition can naturally be called harsh. but. What does this have to do with Yin Bu?
Just when Qiao Cheng was confused, Chen Mo's popular science also came one after another.
"Yin Bu is an elf that evolves differently depending on the environment. The different attributes of Yin Bu are actually the evolution of Yin Bu in order to adapt to different environments."
"That's right, except for the general Yin Bu in its initial form, other members of the Yin Bu family can be regarded as various regional forms extended by Yin Bu."
"I believe some viewers will have questions in their hearts when they hear this."
"It's also a regional form. Why does Yin Bu have so many regional forms?" Chen Mo paused for a moment and glanced at the barrage on the screen.
the other side. Qiao Cheng, who had also been thinking, quickly reacted based on Chen Mo's previous words.
"Gene?"
"Xiao Qiao answered very quickly, and he was completely correct." Chen Mo smiled slightly, and then continued to speak softly.
"The answer to Yin Bu's diverse evolutionary directions is hidden in the genes of the elven race Yin Bu."
"Looking at all the elven races we know so far, only elves like Yin Bu carry such unstable genes in their bodies."
"And it is precisely because of this unstable genetic gene that Yin Bu can have eight different evolutionary directions."
"but."
"Just like what I mentioned before, stable genes are for elves to better survive in this world, and unstable genes also cause Yin Bu to be unable to survive before he breaks out of his shell, that is, before he is born. When you do that, you start to face a variety of problems.”
"In the end, due to the influence of this special genetic gene, one result is that the number of elves like Yin Bu in this world has become increasingly rare." The atmosphere in the live broadcast room changed slightly. .
In the lens. They could also see the electric elves resting on the grass not far away. It was obvious that the number of thunder zebras among them was far more than that of Lei Yinbu.
[Finally I understand, it turns out that this is the unfortunate thing that Teacher Mo said...] [Various evolutionary directions have led to the survival of a clan becoming scarce. Alas, is this choice really worth it?
】【So pitiful...】Qiao Cheng also had a look of sudden realization on his face. He had previously wondered why the Countermeasures Bureau had not been able to find traces of them when there were so many members of the Yinbu family.
I see. People are born with a rare number of precious elves. But... Qiao Cheng frowned slightly.
He had to think about a question. Will Yin Bu become extinct in this world one day in the future?
This worry is not groundless. After all, Yin Bu is different from other elves that were almost extinct due to human activities. Even if humans keep a distance from Yin Bu, this elven race may still die due to its extremely unstable genes. Slowly disappear into this world on its own.
Chen Mo, who also saw someone asking a similar question in the live broadcast room, smiled and said slowly.
"You don't need to worry too much about this. Most of the elves we see now are in the original elf world and have reproduced naturally for thousands of years. Yin Bu is no exception."
"If you look carefully at Yin Bu's characteristics, you can find that Yin Bu's three characteristics, escape, adaptability, and the rarest danger prediction, are all evolved to allow the race to survive better. .”
"It can be said that over a long period of time, Yin Bu has slowly learned how to stand firm in this chaotic world."
"Even if their genes are unstable and their survival is difficult, they will still survive in this world tenaciously."
"Perhaps, one day in the future, they will use this unique way of evolution and survival to completely solve the mystery of evolution. This is also a direction that countless scholars in the elf world have speculated on."
"in addition."
"I have told you a long time ago that elves and humans have a symbiotic relationship. In ancient times, conditions were harsh and humans would be somewhat powerless to deal with Yin Bu's situation. However, with the evolution of science and technology, scholars in the elf world have also Through various cultivation methods, we are slowly expanding the number of Yinbu..." Chen Mo talked to the live broadcast room.
Lei Yinbu, who stayed aside, had been listening to Chen Mo's voice silently. Since Chen Mo did not use the power of the waveguide, Lei Yinbu had difficulty understanding most of what Chen Mo said.
But there is one thing that Lei Yinbu is sure of. Every time the term 'Yin Bu' is mentioned, the human's emotions will rise significantly, and it can even be clear that the other party releases goodwill towards the elven race Yin Bu.
Strange humans. Lei Yinbu glanced at Chen Mo with a slightly puzzled look, and then his expression showed a little confusion and worry.
Chen Mo, who was concentrating on popular science, did not notice the change in Lei Yinbu's expression. but. As Lei Yinbu discovered.
Chen Mo really likes the elven race Yin Bu. after all. In Chen Mo's previous life, Yin Bu was one of the few non-legendary elves to occupy the cover of a genuine Pokémon game. This shows how popular he is, and he even often appears in the photos of major elven fans. In the protagonist's team.
Again. From the perspective of a science popularizer and elf popularizer, Yin Bu, who has a docile personality, good racial potential, and diverse development, is an elf race that is very suitable for integrating into human society.
Putting all the conditions together, Chen Mo naturally had a very high affinity for this cute little guy.
Chen Mo looked up at the starry sky above his head, with a slight smile on his lips. Now that Lei Yinbu has appeared, there must still be little Yinbu who has not yet evolved in the habitat of their clan. When the time comes, he can indirectly fulfill a dream from his previous life, touch and rub that seemingly Just the fluffy and cute Yin Bu.
"Follow silicon~"
"Pika pika~" on the other side. The kitchen team composed of Pikachu, Gengar, and Zoroark had already prepared dinner, and were waving to Chen Mo with excitement and pride.
There was a strong aroma floating in the air. Led by Jirachi, the elves of the Chen Mo family also began to play and play, slowly gathering from the surrounding grass and walking towards the place where they were cooking.
Lei Yinbu watched this scene silently. at this time. It felt a figure stop beside it.
When he looked up, he saw Chen Mozheng standing in front of him with a smile.
"Voice?"
"Let's go have something to eat together. The night is still very long." Faced with Chen Mo's invitation again, Lei Yinbu was about to refuse again skillfully. But before he could react, the human in front of him had already crouched down with lightning speed. He lowered his body and hugged it directly.
"Huh!" Lei Yinbu was obviously a little uncomfortable being held in his arms by a human being in a very sudden way, but he didn't feel much disgust.
"Don't refuse anymore, you have to eat when you are hungry. I just asked Pikachu and the others to prepare some more. You can ask your kin and friends to come over for dinner later."
"Voice..."
"Finally I touched it. Sure enough, it's just as I thought. Although the fluff looks spiky, it actually feels very comfortable. Qiao Cheng, do you want to touch it?"
"Okay, okay! Um...is that okay?"
"Voice..."
"Lei Yinbu said yes~" Looking at the two strange humans in front of him who were touching his head, Lei Yinbu's rather stern face showed a helpless look.
but. Feeling the goodwill coming from the two of them, Lei Yinbu gradually made up his mind.
If it were them... The estrangement between the elves came and went away just as quickly. Perhaps before the dinner started, many Thunder Zebras and Thunder Zebras were still a little scared and wary, but in the middle of the dinner, under the leadership of Pikachu, a social master, the elves had slowly become closer. As he got up, his favorability towards the two human trainers Chen Mo and Qiao Cheng also increased.
Early next morning. When Chen Mo got up, he found that many Lei Yinbu and Thunder Zebras had disappeared.
Chen Mo, who had known about this for a long time, didn't care. The people who came to Electric Lake this time were all adult elves with fighting ability from the two groups. They usually have many tasks to complete in the group. Naturally, they cannot guard Chen Mo all night, so after last night’s dinner, , has returned to its habitat.
Lei Yinbu, the leader, stayed behind, and it was responsible for leading the way. At this moment, it was silently waiting for Chen Mo and his party to pack up things at the campsite.
"Let's go." After putting some things back into Gengar's body, Chen Mo smiled slightly at the little guy in front of him who had been waiting for a long time.
"Hooray." Lei Yinbu, who had been impatient for a long time, nodded, and then walked in front with excitement and anxiety, heading towards his familiar home.
Chen Mo, who understood that Lei Yinbu probably wanted his companion to recover, and Qiao Cheng, together with Qiao Cheng, silently made the goat to speed up its progress through the horns connected to his heart.
We walked for about half an hour. As we go deeper into the forest, the surrounding trees become taller and taller.
There was silence in the forest.
"Pickup?" That's when. Pikachu, who was on Chen Mo's shoulder, suddenly felt something and let out a slight call.
In the live broadcast room that Chen Mo didn't notice. Countless viewers sitting in front of the screen suddenly saw the screen suddenly become laggy and twitching, but before they could respond to the administrator of the live broadcast room, the next second, the live broadcast room returned to normal.
While they were wondering, everyone saw again. On the screen, Lei Yinbu, who had been taking the lead from the front, suddenly stopped.
Then, Lei Yinbu raised his head and let out an extremely loud roar toward the dense forest ahead.
"Pika?" Pikachu's expression became even more confused. Chen Mo, who was connected to Pikachu, naturally understood what Pikachu was thinking.
Just now. Pikachu discovered a somewhat special magnetic field energy that was covering the surrounding forest. With Lei Yinbu's roar, this special magnetic field energy disappeared in an instant.
"Huh." Lei Yinbu in front looked back at Chen Mo behind him and motioned for him to follow.
While Chen Mo asked his mount goat to follow him, he released the waveguide energy in his body to the surrounding area.
Passing through the narrow forest path, in front of you is a space covered by towering trees that obscures the sky, but the internal space is extremely large and unusually empty.
Chen Mo saw that there were many small nests where elves obviously lived, built in various places in this space.
Chen Mo, who was observing with the waveguide, just took a glance, put these minor things aside for the time being, and focused his attention on a building directly in front of him.
That's right. Under this sea of trees with a huge internal space, there is a temple that looks like it exudes an extremely ancient atmosphere, sitting quietly in the deepest part of the sea of trees.
At the entrance of the temple, under the dilapidated steps, stood a behemoth nearly three meters tall with an eye-catching big red nose.
