However, what Leo cannot understand is that the people of Ten Towns have no objection to this method of intermarriage, but they are highly respected. Even some nobles are competing to imitate. This is in a civilization with an industrial system and a general knowledge. It is extremely rare in society.
Even among those magical alien races in the Earth Federation universe, only a small part of the alien races will have such close marriages due to physiological defects, and they themselves do not agree with this practice.
Close marriage is not only backward in the civilized system, but also a big problem in biological reproduction. In the Earth Federation, almost everyone knows that close marriage will make future generations have a high probability of being deformed. It is not difficult for the medical level to prove this matter.
It doesn't even need to use any medical level. From the aristocratic offspring of close marriages, the endless number of deformities and low-energy children are enough to prove the error of close marriages.
However, residents and nobles of Shizhen and Yinyuecheng turned a blind eye to this, because all the close relatives of the Alcott family did not have a low-energy child and a deformed child after marriage, but each had a beautiful appearance and superior Wisdom, so they all think that this is the result of intermarriage between close relatives, and the reason why they have such an adverse reaction is just because their method is a bit wrong.
The most peculiar thing is that for such absurd ideas and behaviors, the wise wizard should have stopped it, but in fact the wizard played a role in fueling the marriage of the Alcott family's close relatives.
Although the wizards of the Wizarding Society did not expressly support the inheritance custom of the close marriage of the Alcott family, they secretly suppressed the children of the Alcott family who were not close relatives when they chose the ten-town ruler. At the same time, it is clear to build momentum for the children of the Alcott family who are close to the marriage, and the closer the blood relationship between the two close marriages, the greater their support.
In the diary that Leo acquired, there are several family members from the marginalized family of the Alcott family. None of their parents are intermarried within the Alcott family. They have mentioned more than once that the power structure within the Alcott family is also determined by the degree of closeness of the blood of the close relatives. They don’t know why there is such a ranking system. They just know that anyone who wants to resist this system, no matter how high their status, even if they are the rulers of a lake town, will eventually disappear inexplicably.
When Leo carefully analyzed the blood lineage of the Alcott family, the first thought in his mind was the blood line. Obviously, the purpose of this kind of close marriage model of the Alcott family is to maintain the blood of the family as they have disclosed, and the wizard will value this too. This is also for this blood line, which also makes Leo to Alcott. Why is the family bloodline so strange?
However, although Leo was born with curiosity, he did not intend to actually contact the people of the Alcott family. He could see that the people of the Alcott family did not know the details of his blood. These mysteries are mastered. In the hands of the chief wizard of the wizarding association, it is the easiest and most direct way to find these mysteries directly from the wizarding association.
Because of this, even when selling those therapeutic agents, Leo never took the initiative to contact those wealthy Alcott family members, and the relationship between the two was almost zero. But now the Alcott family, and the leader of the Alcott family in the seventh town on the lake, personally posted it and invited him to the banquet, which really surprised him.
However, apart from the accident, he thought about it for a moment, and also vaguely guessed the intention of Andre XIII’s invitation to post. I am afraid that the therapeutic agent is the leader of the Alcott family known for hermit. main purpose.
A few days ago, when healing potions were sold, Leo felt that healing potions were still rare in this mysterious world. It was not difficult to hear from the mouths of those nobles, even if there were many wizards and potions in Silvermoon City Teacher, but people who can make wizard potions are still very rare.
At that time, he felt that the ten bottles of wizard potions would definitely cause some trouble. Now the invitation of Andre XIII just confirmed his guess.
If it was more than an hour ago, Leo might not have ignored the invitation, but went directly to the dock of the airship in the city and left here by airship, but now he changed his mind because of the appearance of the hide and decided to stay here again. Continue to stay for a while to see if you can find more useful things.
Leo, who had already decided to accept the invitation, thought about it a little, and wore it for the party, and finally decided to put on his original leather jacket.
After entering the town, Leo felt a little too cautious. He found that although the style of his clothes was very different from that of ordinary people in the city, it was so ordinary among the nobles who liked strange clothes, even some people who were called ancestral body mutants. The clothes he wore were much more quirky than his leather jacket, so he specifically changed his clothes to avoid loopholes in his clothes.
However, even so, Leo will still do the same next time. After all, in the countless missions he performed in the Earth Federation era, there are countless stupid people who died because of some small mistakes. Be one of them.
Soon Leo took out his original clothes, shoes, and hats from the backpack, and hesitated a little. He also took out the king and queen and re-equipped them.
Just as he was too careful about the style of clothing, shoes and hats, he was also too cautious about firearms.
According to the observations of the past few days, he found that almost all the merchants traveling to and from the ten towns were wearing all kinds of weapons, most of which were mainly blade machine crossbows, but some people also wore guns. But most of the firearms on them are not revolvers like kings and queens, but the kind of multi-barrel continuous shotguns.
The ammunition of these shotguns is not gunpowder, but a mixed powder of gunpowder, and he can not feel any psionic wavelength from these powders, which shows that these ammunitions are completely different from the special bullets on his body.
Although wearing kings and queens will still be a bit striking, it also coincides with the guessing of his identity by those who are interested, making them more certain that they have a relationship with an unknown senior wizard association in Silvermoon City, because in their view only the wizard Only advanced mechanics under the control of the association can produce such exquisite firearms, and this misunderstanding can also help Leo not have to explain too much about his disguised identity.
After finishing the costume, Leo carried his backpack, put several relatively important books into the backpack, and left other books in the room, then walked out of the room and came to the top of the building, along the top and bottom The staggered suspension bridge walks towards the garden of the third zone marked on the invitation.
Among the ten towns on Xianyue Lake, the security of other lake towns is not clear, but he is sure that the security of the seventh lake town he is now in is not very good, only when he stays in the 33rd district In a few days, I heard more than once that foreign merchants renting houses in District 33 suffered from theft and robbery.
Although the patrol guards of the 33rd district sent people to investigate and collect evidence every time and caught someone who stole things, the stolen items could not be recovered. Leo didn't want to be like the foreign merchants. After going to a banquet, he came back and found that his backpack storing important items was stolen, so it was his best choice to take the backpack with him.
Each area of Hushang Town is divided according to the vine floating platform where it is located. Some vine floating platforms have a large area, so the area of the urban area is larger, and the more houses there are.
However, there are still some rules to follow. The largest vine floating platforms in towns are classified as industrial areas, followed by commercial areas. The area of semi-commercial and semi-residential floating platforms like District 33 It is only slightly larger than some pure residential areas, and houses in residential areas are not very large, but they are dense and high.
The area where nobles live in the city is an exception. Although this area is divided into ten areas from one to ten, it is actually a whole vine floating platform. In terms of area, this vine floating platform is the whole. The largest vine floating platform in Hushang Town can only be compared with the area when 40 or 50 ordinary residential areas are put together.
The edge part of the whole floating platform connected with other floating platforms was specially built with a high wall, which will separate the urban area from one to ten from the other urban areas of Hushang Town, and at least more than one hundred people will be arranged in the high wall city. Garrison army. These garrison troops are all composed of former urban guards who are physically ancestralized, and are strong enough to crush all the soldiers who guard those ten urban guards.
The bodies of these soldiers are almost all three meters high, and their body variations are very large. Some grow a lot of octopus-like tentacles. Some bodies appear disproportionately large, and more are simply completely animalized. Spiders, lizards, giant birds, etc. These mutants with extraordinary strength are paired with weapons specially created for them, making their overall combat strength so powerful that even Leo needs to be taken seriously.
In the past few days, Lake Shangzhen has been one of Leo’s focuses of these body changes known as ancestralization. He even went to the guard city to capture a few people even after entering the rest period in the city. Guard, study the causes of their alienation.
He found that this alienation was not due to the influence of the surrounding environment, but the genetic mutations produced were more artificial, because he found many traces of the wizard's transformation on these people with physical changes.
In the wizard notes of the wild wizard, Leo read the content of wizard transformation. Although he would not use this transformation technique for himself, he valued the technology of heterogeneous gene fusion in it very much, so he took time from time to time to specifically study the transformation cases recorded in the notes, and did not carry out through the auxiliary brain system. Learning this transformation technique in any practical operation, so his knowledge of wizard transformation is not much worse than that of wizards who specialize in this technique.
After inspecting the ancestralized bodies of these people through the mental network, Leo easily found traces of the transformation after casting, and also found that the transformation of these people is very large compared to the transformation of the wild wizard. Different, or this transformation is more in line with Leo's heterogeneous gene fusion technology.
Wilderness Wizard's transformation is a very superficial method of limb or organ transplantation, which may involve microscopic cells such as genes, but there are absolutely not many places involved. The transformation of the wild wizard is simply to transplant a relatively powerful organ or related cells of a certain organism into the human body, and then erase the rejection after transplantation through witchcraft, so that the transformed person can obtain the content of this transplanted organ. Strength finally reaches the point of changing or strengthening the human body.
This transformation technique can be regarded as an immediate transformation technique, because as long as the transformation is completed, the transformation effect will appear, but the human body will also have some unexpected accidents because there is no time to adapt.
Now Leo found a micro-transformation directed at the genetic level in this mutant person in the dream world. This transformation technique is to forcibly insert the genes of other species into the human genes ~EbookFREE.me~ to make it a new humanoid gene.
After this transformation technique is used, the body of the person being transformed will not immediately change, and his genetic cells are still dominated by human genes. Only after triggering some unpredictable abnormal conditions and opportunities, the transformed person's body will slowly change. This slow mutation process should be enough to allow the abnormal person to adapt to the changes in the body.
In addition, this genetic level of transformation will spread to the bloodline genes of their descendants as the transformants multiply, so Leo speculates that it is likely that all people in this dream world are heterogeneous genetic modifiers, but some are Recessive, some are dominant.
If it is just this, Leo is not enough to marvel at this real genetic modification. It really makes him feel that the most extreme thing is that when two different modified genes come into contact, the gene cells do not There will be adverse reactions such as rejection or collapse, but it will automatically merge and evolve into another new heterogeneous gene.
In Leo's view, this kind of sorcerer's transformation technique in the dream world is the most perfect genetic modification technique, and the transformation technique he wants to learn most. It is a pity that after comparing these genetically modified cells, he found that the genetically modified cells in these people have been very mature, or mature, at least after decades of fusion evolution, that is to say, the original Transformation is already a matter of hundreds or even thousands of years ago.
According to Leo’s diary from a veteran guarding a castle in a foggy area, hundreds of years ago, there was a turmoil in the Silver Moon City Wizards’ Association. During the turmoil, the Wizards’ Association seemed to lose a lot of things. Existence is also an unknown.
Therefore, he can only try his luck to see if he can find the specific method of this transformation before leaving.
