Legend of the Mythological Genes Chapter 50: Answers Like Flowing Water

Clap, clap, clap!

A round of warm applause rang out.

"Not bad, excellent!"

"Up until now, there has not been anyone else who displayed such understanding of the innate nature of genetic potions and nutrient medicines in their answers!"

"Seems like your attainments in genetic theory is very deep!"

After Feng Lin had finished speaking, all the interviewers applauded and praised him.

The three questions asked were all not simple ones, yet Feng Lin had answered them all easily, with answers that were extremely perfect.

This Feng Lin isn't simple at all.

From left to the right, it was now time for the fourth interviewer to ask his question. He asked another difficult one. "Since there's the spirit particle motion theory, why do some nutrient medicine potions like the low-grade potions of life were able to be concocted by machinery?"

This question was extremely difficult. Feng Lin had never seen a topic related to this in his research notes before. He couldn't help but frown as a look of contemplation appeared on his face.

Right, since potions of life were considered a kind of nutrient medicine, why could machines concoct some types of it? Before this, he had consumed potions of life before and according to the transformations in his body, he could be sure that there were truly spirit particles within the low-grade types potions of life.

But this didn't seem to fit in the Brownian Motion theory.

Feng Lin's brows furrowed even more as he pondered. The interviewers didn't press him for an answer as they silently waited for him to think.

Clearly, they knew that this question wasn't an easy one. One had to have extremely deep attainments in genetic potions theory before they could answer it.

Feng Lin's mind was now turning like a well-oiled machine.

The reason why some nutrient medicines could be concocted by machines definitely had to do with something common in their formulations. But, what was the answer?

It was like he suddenly thought of it. Feng Lin's eyes brightened as he called out, "It's spirit powder!"

The interviewers glanced at each other, as admiration and praised could be seen reflected in their eyes. However, they continued to ask, "Why is it spirit powder?"

"Spirit powder is a kind of inert substance that could contain spirit particles. But although they can contain spirit particles, its exterior by nature had a thin layer of isolation over the material surface that acts as a tiny cage, suppressing the spirit particles movement. Hence, when spirit powder is dissolved into some nutrient medicine, the average distribution of the spirit particles could be deduced, maintaining the greatest stability to generate a similar medicinal potency throughout concoction. Hence, for low-grade potions that contained spirit powder in their formulations, all of them could be concocted by machines," Feng Lin explained.

"Excellent, excellent!" Those interviewers smiled and nodded.

The last interviewer added onto the question, "Then, do you know the reason why since spirit powder has the unique nature of isolation, trapping the spirit particles within, why are they not used in the concoction of many other types of nutrient medicine?"

This time, Feng Lin didn't hesitate. He explained in a concise and comprehensive manner, "Because, although spirit powder has the special ability of isolating, allowing it to trap spirit particles, the amount of spirit particles in them is simply way too low. It can only be used to concoct the weakest common-grade and low-grade nutrient medicine. It's not suitable for other types of potions!"

Up until here, all five questions by the five interviewers had been answered perfectly.

Feng Lin's answers were like flowing water, smooth and to the point.

The five interviewers all had smiles on their faces. They respectively nodded, clearly extremely satisfied with Feng Lin's performance.

"Pretty good. Your knowledge of genetic theory is extremely solid. Now, it's time for us to ask you some questions about myths and legends." The main interviewer who sat in the center spoke.

Feng Lin smiled, this domain of questioning was the one he was the least afraid of!

"Let me ask you, in how many grades can angels be classified into?" The left-most interviewer took the lead and asked.

Feng Lin pondered for a moment before he replied, "There are a total of three tiers and nine grades. For the upper tier: the incandescent angel, wisdom angel, and throne angel. For the middle tier: the lord angel, strength angel, and energy angel. For the lower tier: the authority angel, great angel, and ordinary angels."

"Correct." The interviewer who asked the question involuntarily praised. "You have already passed in my perspective."

Feng Lin smiled and nodded.

The second interviewer from the left then asked a question regarding the holy bible. "Who are the seven devil lords of hell, which sins do they represent?"

Those who read the bible before all knew that the seven devil lords corresponded with the seven archangels.

Feng Lin contemplated, recalling the memories in his mind as he directly answered, "They can be classified as Lucifer, the sin of pride. Leviathan, the sin of envy. Samael, the sin of wrath. Belphegor, the sin of sloth. Beelzebub, the sin of gluttony. Mammon, the sin of greed and Asmodeus, the sin of lust!"

After answering the question, he quietly wiped away his sweat.

Luckily for him, he had been exceptionally interested in mythology back when he had been in the Ancient Earth Era and had read many novels and stories about various gods and divine beings of different cultures and religions. If not, he truly wouldn't be able to answer it.

"Why did God expel Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden?" The main interviewer suddenly asked.

"Because they ate the forbidden fruit!" Feng Lin replied.

"Impressive! More than half of the holy bible has already been lost to time. The stories inside were split into many chapters all around the world yet you could actually answer this." The main interviewer nodded; he was truly impressed by Feng Lin.

They continued to ask more questions, but Feng Lin easily answered them all. After that, they stopped the questioning and started to first discuss among themselves.

Feng Lin waited patiently and about five to six minutes later, the interviewers had a conclusion.

"Seems like questions about the bible are unable to stump you. Let me ask you another question about mythology. Listen well." An old man with a turban on his head smiled. His body was as thin as sticks, and he looked somewhat withered by age. "There are three chief gods of Hinduism. What divine authority do they possess?"

"This is simple." Feng Lin had a relaxed look on his face.

The chief gods of each religion were always the most famous in comparison to the others. As long as you were slightly familiar with that myth or legend, you would be able to name all of them.

"The three chief gods of Hinduism...They are respectively known as Brahma, God of Creation; Shiva, Goddess of Destruction; Vishnu, God of Protection. The three chief gods are the holy trinity that shares the same roots and source. They are the embodiment of the universe!"

"I've finished all my questions. Next, you are the only one left. Let's see if your question can stump him." The old man laughed and nodded as he turned to face the last interviewer.

"Don't worry, the answer to my question is extremely tough." The fifth interviewer seemed to be filled with confidence. "This is a mythological system that is extremely obscure. Not many people would know of it."

Feng Lin was still very calm; he wasn't frightened by that at all.

"Hura Mazd. Which mythology did this god belong to? What divine authority or laws did it control?" The interviewer smiled as he asked.

This was an extremely unfamiliar name.

Feng Lin instantly frowned.

Norse mythology? Wrong!

Maya mythology? That's not it!

Japan mythology? It doesn't seem to match at all.

Feng Lin did a mental run through of the myths and legends of the Ancient Earth Era. He could be sure that he had never heard of this name before.

"What did I say? I told you guys he wouldn't be able to answer this." Upon seeing the frown on Feng Lin's face and the fact that he didn't answer after a long moment, that interviewer laughed as he glanced at his colleagues. There was a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

The other interviewers turned their gazes to Feng Lin, wanting to see if Feng Lin would be able to answer this. If he could, this would no doubt prove that he had extremely high attainments in the mythological domain.

Feng Lin didn't give up because he was sure that based on one's degree of understanding towards myths and legends, there was no one in this world currently superior to him. If he couldn't answer this, it would mean that no one could.

Hence, there must be an answer to this question. This name was definitely among the myths and legends he knew.

A light suddenly went off in his mind as though a shooting star had arced through his brain.

"I know. This god's original name isn't Hura Mazd. It's Ahura Mazda, the chief god of fire from Zoroastrianism, one of Persia's ancient religion!"
