I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3075: Chapter 3077: Survival Is the First Duty of Civilization

"This..."

Everyone in the office was stunned for a moment, all eyes turned to Lin Yi.

"Why are you all looking at me? I really don’t know about this," Lin Yi said:

"Boss Liu is also responsible for intelligence, you should ask him."

"How could I know so much," Liu Hong said:

"Is your dad just idle?"

"That’s possible," Lin Yi shrugged and said.

"Did the person responsible for the intelligence say why?"

"It’s good enough that you know this much. The Poker people handle things; it’s impossible for that much information to leak out," Liu Hong said.

Everyone was baffled and didn’t understand why this was happening.

Yet, their hearts couldn’t calm down for a long time.

No matter what, the Halke Rangers are a first-class organization, very strong in power.

But Poker sent two teams over and wiped them all out. Such terrifying strength is chilling.

Perhaps the term ’super first-class’ is not quite fitting for Poker.

"Alright, let’s set this aside for now," Liu Hong said:

"We have a second landing on the island coming up soon. Discussing the subsequent plans is what’s important."

"The real thorny issue is still the Giant Lizard beneath the cellar. If handled improperly, there’s a chance of complete annihilation," Lin Yi said.

"The preliminary method is to use cyanide," Liu Hong said:

"Disguise food and throw it into the cellar. This is the most effective method. Besides, we’ll equip you with crossbows smeared with cyanide, enhancing your combat capabilities considerably."

Everyone nodded. In the short term, this was the most effective method.

Afterward, the group discussed for over half an hour before the meeting ended.

Exiting the office, Lin Yi stretched lazily, looking relaxed.

"What are you going to do later?" Ning Che caught up and asked:

"I’ll take a walk in the backyard, gather some information from them."

Ning Che nodded and then followed Lin Yi to the research institute at the back. There, they found Chen Zhixia.

Since she had been back for a while, Chen Zhixia looked much healthier.

She even had a slight scent of an urban beauty.

"Team Leader Lin, Team Leader Ning."

Seeing the two, Chen Zhiyi welcomed them into the office and poured them two glasses of water.

"You must have seen the materials we brought back," Lin Yi asked.

Chen Zhiyi nodded, tidying her hair, and said:

"This time, the materials are different from before, especially that sheepskin scroll. Its utility value is very high, and if nothing unexpected happens, we’ll have results soon."

"How’s the progress on the research we were doing on the island?"

"The research direction has changed," Chen Zhiyi said:

"Turning it into consumable medication, regardless of safety, doesn’t align with our national conditions. So now, it’s progressing towards equipment manufacturing."

"Equipment manufacturing?"

"Yes, training equipment," Chen Zhiyi said:

"Just like how long-distance runners tie sandbags on themselves. It’s proven to be effective."

Lin Yi nodded, understanding Chen Zhiyi’s meaning.

"By the way, you’ve seen the Giant Lizard’s photo too, right?"

Chen Zhiyi nodded, waiting for Lin Yi to continue.

"Do you think it’s normal for such a creature to appear on the island?"

"Hm?"

Chen Zhiyi was taken aback, "In fact, it’s normal for such creatures to appear on the island, isn’t it?"

"No, you still don’t understand what I mean."

Then, Lin Yi explained his encounters with the Giant Python and Brown Bear to Chen Zhiyi and added:

"The creatures living in the middle of the jungle are very different from those at the front, but the environment between the middle and front isn’t as drastically different as imagined. Can such a big gap appear in biological evolution?"

"This..."

After hearing Lin Yi’s words, Chen Zhiyi understood his confusion.

"Normally, it’s unlikely," Chen Zhiyi said:

"Even if Tilia Island is a highly unusual place, it still has to follow the laws of biological evolution."

"So, what’s your thought?"

"There are two possibilities," Chen Zhiyi said:

"First, magnetic fields and radiation, but that’s unlikely. The second is biological experiments."

"Biological experiments?"

"Yes."

"If you had asked me a month ago, I probably couldn’t have given this answer, but now I can," Chen Zhiyi said:

"The materials you brought back document this stuff."

"But the problem is, the materials were left by Tilia Island’s Natives. It’s been so many years; could they still be useful?" Ning Che asked.

"Yes, and significantly so," Chen Zhiyi said:

"This might indicate their experiments were successful."

The two remained silent, waiting for Chen Zhiyi to continue.

"Team Leader Lin, do you remember the experiment we conducted on the chimpanzee on the island?"

"I remember, but it died in just a few days."

"But it already completed reproduction, which played a crucial role in the evolution of the species," Chen Zhiyi said:

"In a way, our experiment could be considered a form of biological modification, just not as exaggerated as the Natives of Tilia Island."

After a pause, Chen Zhiyi continued:

"We can make a bold guess: the first generation of organisms developed by the Natives might have been failures, but they completed the mating process. The second generation might not have been as strong biologically as the first, but their genes were more stable, and then they reproduced generation after generation. In terms of indicators, they might be far weaker than the first generation, but they’re more stable, becoming a new sub-species."

"But even so, this sub-species is stronger than naturally bred organisms. It’s a bit convoluted, but that’s essentially what it means."

Although a bit convoluted, Lin Yi and Ning Che were both clear-headed and intelligent.

They quickly understood Chen Zhiyi’s point.

"I feel this doesn’t really matter," Ning Che said:

"The situation on the island is already set. Even if the reality matches our assumption, it wouldn’t change the outcome."

"You’re right, but what I’m curious about is why the Natives of Tilia Island would do this," Lin Yi said seriously.

"Isn’t your curiosity a bit too intense?"

"It’s not curiosity. I think they might have a reason they must do this," Lin Yi said earnestly.

"What’s the reason?"

"The era of the Natives wasn’t a peaceful one. They wouldn’t waste time on meaningless things," Lin Yi said:

"So, I’m very curious about what their purpose was."

Suddenly, Chen Zhiyi’s eyes lit up, "I’ve thought of something that might answer your question."

"What?"

"Survival is the primary duty of civilization."
