He can prove it???
Reiner’s words left everyone present, including Lockfield, in astonishnt.
The purebloods were surprised that Reiner really believed that peas and humans were the sa, and the inheritance laws of peas could be applied to humans.
Lockfield was surprised. Had Reiner really found evidence proving the relationship between chromosos and bloodline factors?
It’s worth noting that observing the presence of chromosos was just an unintentional act. Currently, necromancers, due to their lack of knowledge about the specific role of chromosos, had conducted very limited research on chromosos.
As far as Lockfield knew, the most prominent research data only proved that humans have twenty-three pairs of chromosos, with the twenty-third pair differentiating gender. Other organisms also have similar chromosos, nothing more.
How exactly did Reiner plan to prove the relationship between chromosos and bloodline factors, and inheritance traits?
Lockfield sipped his red wine. The scent of the wine from the Albione family, used to entertain guests, had a llow aroma and was obviously of high quality.
“Wait a minute, Reiner Ian Gray, I hope I didn’t hear wrong?”
Joestar smiled, spread his hands, as if addressing everyone.
“Do you really think humans and peas are the sa species?”
People whispered and discussed, though not directly stated, Reiner’s implication was clear. This made the pureblood mages uncomfortable.
“Do you think that humans, who master magic and can dominate this world and many half planes, are the sa as peas boiled in mashed potatoes for dinner?”
He was aggressive, staring at Reiner, as if his gaze could kill.
But in the face of Joestar’s questioning, Reiner’s lips curled slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
“At least from the perspective of genetics, sir, you are not much different from peas.”
Reiner spoke and then added aloud.
“Of course, sir, I am not targeting you, but everyone present. The process of inheriting bloodlines is no different from peas.”
In a confrontational statent, Reiner looked at the choked expressions opposite. He didn’t continue to taunt but flipped to the next page of the thesis on the white wall. At this mont, it was aningless to engage in verbal battles: presenting experintal data was the way to go.
“Everyone, please look here.”
Before the audience could fully recover from Reiner’s almost sarcastic statent, so images of strange things appeared on the white wall.
“Chromosos?”
Lockfield gently shook the contents of the cup, watching the data on the white wall with relish.
“Firstly, I want to introduce everyone to the latest research result in necromancy, chromosos.”
Reiner spoke, and on the white wall were images of human chromosos observed under a high-magnification optical microscope. It was clear that these chromosos existed in pairs, totaling twenty-three pairs, with the last pair being different, representing a male’s chromosos.
Including Joestar, the pureblood mages were initially stunned by Reiner’s words. By the ti they reacted, they had lost the opportunity to interrupt and could only watch Reiner’s presentation, preparing to counterattack when the chance arose.
“This is a type of living tissue observable in cell division. From peas planted on the ground to birds soaring in the sky, and humans, many creatures have this kind of living tissue. Similar in alchemical composition, it can be considered that the chromosos present in different organisms are the sa substance. However, so far, necromancers have not figured out the specific function of these chromosos that can be stained with special dyes, except for one thing.”
Another set of chromosos appeared on the white wall, neatly arranged, clearly representing female chromosos.
“These are the chromosos of male and female humans. As you can see, they are basically the sa, except for the last pair. In the study of necromancy, this pair of chromosos has been defined as sex chromosos, which determine gender.”
These studies were quite rare, and pureblood mages had limited exposure to modern magic. Therefore, no one could raise objections to Reiner’s statents.
“Of course, whether it is the existence of sex chromosos leading to gender differentiation or the formation of sex chromosos after gender differentiation requires further research. At least for now, it can be basically affird that sex chromosos and gender determination are closely related.”
William remained calm, looking at the data on the white wall, glancing at George.
George nodded slightly, as if understanding, and he summoned a few servants, secretly instructing them to support Edward. After all, it had been a long ti without a reply, and there might be so issues on that end.
William trusted his younger brother very much, entrusting most affairs to George for over a decade. It had been smooth sailing, and William believed George could handle this as well.
“In my opinion, gender is also a trait. Chromosos that can distinguish gender are likely carriers of bloodline factors. Therefore, if it can be proven that chromosos are associated with gender inheritance, following genetic laws, it can be proven that bloodline factors are on chromosos.”
Reiner explained and supported his viewpoint with additional data.
Pureblood mages had limited research on modern magic, but Reiner’s reasoning was clear. Anyone with a clear mind could gain a clear understanding of chromosos and genetic theories through Reiner’s description.
“Now, I will demonstrate this through the study of a certain creature.”
On the white wall, all chromoso patterns disappeared, replaced by a creature well-known to the mages.
“This is the familiar Moon Owl, a ssenger used for delivering letters over a long period, and also a creature dosticated by humans early on.”
Reiner calmly introduced the Moon Owl.
“Because the Moon Owl has been dosticated for a long ti, there are aviaries for breeding Moon Owls all over the continent. These aviaries count all the Moon Owls, and my research is based on these extensive and long-term statistics.”
The scene turned into an image of a red-eyed Moon Owl and a yellow-eyed Moon Owl.
“Through the study of red-eyed and yellow-eyed Moon Owls, I finally confird that the blood factor in red eyes is inherited along with gender, along with sex chromosos. This conforms to the inheritance laws.”
A chart of Moon Owl traits appeared on the white wall, clear and systematic, leaving no room for criticism.
The pureblood mages in the room fell silent.
If the laws of inheritance could be mastered, it ant that all mages could easily transplant the abilities of other magical creatures onto themselves.
The pureblood families, with a heritage of thousands of years, would have no secrets left!
This was too terrifying!!!
“So, sir.”
Reiner concluded, smiling at Joestar, who had questioned him earlier.
“Bloodline factors exist on chromosos, passed down following genetic laws, and chromosos exist in the vast majority of organisms. This ans that you and peas, in theory, are indeed following the sa rules in continuing the lineage.”
