Chapter 137

Hearing the priest's words, a trace of consternation immediately appeared in Dongfang Susu's heart.

She had always believed that abilities were born with a natural talent, and that there was no reason for them, and she couldn't find them. She understands that the company has been researching to train ordinary people to become inhumans, but the research has not been successful.

Could it be that the priest has now mastered this method?

The priest stared at the expression on Dongfang Susu's face with satisfaction, and after a long silence, he said, "Have you ever wondered how the alien came about?" ”

Dongfang Susu shook her head, she naturally thought about it, but she didn't know the answer.

The priest said, "The longer I live, the more things I know." I've been researching the origins of Inhumans for a long time, and now, I've finally found something. ”

"You've found it!" Dongfang Susu's eyes widened, if this matter is implemented, the priest's research can cause a sensation all over the world.

"I can't say that it's completely clear, it's just some speculation based on some of the evidence found, and I don't know if it's true." The priest spoke slowly, and asked, "Do you know how long the history of human civilization is?" ”

"About 5,000 years......" Dongfang Susu was a little embarrassed, she didn't learn history very well.

"The earliest writing, found in Egypt, is 6,000 years from today, ancient India is about 4,500 years from today, ancient Babylon is about 5,500 years from today, and the Chinese civilization is the longest lasting civilization in the world, about 5,000 to 6,000 years ago. The entire history of human civilization is only 6,000 years. ”

The priest stood up and paced around the room, speaking slowly, like a scholar. In fact, time is the greatest asset of the priest, and the accumulation of hundreds of years has already made the priest one of the world's first-class scholars.

"Six thousand years is long enough for any human being. But what is it for the entire history of mankind? The oldest human skeleton, found in East Africa, is 3.4 million years old from today. 3.4 million years, human beings have walked 3.4 million years from walking upright to today, and the history we can touch is only 6,000 years, what was 6,000 years ago...... It's a blank slate, and we can only guess like a guess based on a few bones. ”

"Who knows how human beings lived 6,000 years ago? It was a history that was blank for us, and no matter how advanced technology was, it was impossible for us to touch that history. ”

"All human beings on Earth today are descendants of Homo sapiens. However, in the process of human evolution from apes to humans, there was more than one type of human.

Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, Heidelbergensis...... In this way, you may not understand, just as there are many kinds of dogs, there are also many kinds of human beings, Tibetan mastiffs, Caucasian dogs, shepherd dogs...... Now, there are countless species of dogs on the earth, but only Homo sapiens remains. Where did those Homo sapiens go......"

"We killed you." Dongfang Susu followed the priest's train of thought.

The priest nodded: "We are grateful to our ancestors, they were fierce enough, cruel enough to keep us at the top of the food chain in evolution, while other races, have since disappeared. ”

"But because of this, we can no longer know how many different kinds of human beings lived on the earth 6,000 years ago, let alone what kind of abilities they have, whether they can master fire, frost, manipulating storms, plants, ......."

Dongfang Susu was stunned, and finally understood what the priest wanted to say. She said, "You mean, Inhumans, are the descendants of other races?" ”

The priest shook his head and nodded again: "I speculate that before the beginning of the history of human civilization, there was an incomparably powerful human race on Earth.

This kind of human being, very different from our Homo sapiens ancestors, I call this kind of human being, 'god-man', which has greater power, a longer lifespan, and can manipulate fire, frost, storms, and the earth...... Possessing abilities that we can't imagine now. ”

"I don't know where the god-man came from, perhaps, the god-man, like Homo sapiens, evolved from the ancient ape, but in natural selection, they embarked on a completely different evolutionary path. Perhaps, the god-man is a higher-level life being from another planet. ”

"These are actually my guesses, and I don't know exactly where the gods and men came from. But what I know is ......" The priest clenched his fists and made a creaking sound, and in his eyes, there seemed to be a flame burning, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I know, they are incomparably strong, very powerful!" ”

Dongfang Susu was frightened by the fire in the priest's eyes, in fact, she did not believe the priest's words, because it was just the priest's speculation, and there was no evidence to support it. Of course, tens of thousands of years have passed, and even if the god-man mentioned by the priest really existed, it is impossible to leave any evidence.

Dongfang Susu just followed the priest's train of thought and said, "Priest, if what you said is true, the godman is extremely powerful, but how can such a powerful person be eliminated by the fragile Homo sapiens?" ”

"I don't know this, I'm just speculating that they probably died of some kind of virus, and the god-men don't have the genes to be immune to this virus, so they died."

"In fact, in natural selection, it is not the strong who survive to the end, but the weak who often come from behind." The priest looked at Dongfang Su Su and said, "Do you know that the ancestor of human beings, the ancient ape, is actually the weakest link in the food chain. At that time, the lion and tiger feasted on the first flesh and blood after killing the beast, while the vulture goshawk feasted on the internal organs of the beast, and the jackal and wolf ate the remaining flesh and blood of the beast. And the Australopithecus followed these beasts, and all they could get was bones that had been gnawed clean.

Helpless, the ancient ape had to learn to smash the hard bones with stones and suck the marrow inside. But this happens to be the most nutritious part of the beast. In this way, it stimulated the development of the brain capacity of Australopithecus, and gradually made them rely on their wisdom to stand at the top of the food chain. ”

The priest let out a long sigh and said, "The world only knows that the law of the jungle is the strong, but how do you know that natural selection is wonderful. ”

The priest coughed lightly, came back to his senses, and said, "Whatever the reason, the god-men eventually disappeared into the biological chain, but although their race disappeared, their genes were passed down. Now, each of us has a part of the genes of God-man. It's just that there are more, some are less, I've already studied, when this kind of gene residue reaches 4%, it can awaken the ability, that is, an alien like you and me, and once the gene exceeds 5%, it is enough to be called powerful. ”

In fact, in modern people, everyone has a part of the genes of gods and men, but some people are higher and some people are lower. In fact, this gene is not static, it is enough to increase the proportion of God-man genes in various ways, and once it exceeds 4%, it can awaken the ability and become an Inhuman. ”

Dongfang Susu's eyes widened in disbelief: "You mean that anyone can awaken the ability and become an alien!" ”

The priest nodded, "That's it." Inhumans are born, but it also depends on the acquired opportunities, some people have a high proportion of genes in their bodies, but they don't know that they are inhuman, in fact, I am such a person, until I was fifty years old, I didn't realize that I had strange powers. ”

Dongfang Susu nodded, and now he understood it in his heart. It's like if it weren't for a fire when I was five years old, I am afraid that I would not have known for the rest of my life that I could control the flames. And how many people in this world are actually the same as themselves?

Dongfang Susu thought of this, suddenly came back to his senses, and realized a more important thing. She asked in a frightened voice, "Priest, have you mastered the method of increasing the genetic ratio of the human body?" ”

The priest shook his head, but nodded again, and said, "I have found some methods, but they are very crude and immature, but I believe that with some time, I will be able to find the perfect solution to this problem." ”

The priest looked at Dongfang Su Su, and the whole person became excited, and said: "Su Su, you already know that 4% of the god's genes can have abilities, and 5% is enough to be called powerful." Well, if you think about it, 10%, 20%, 50%...... Even, 100 percent! ”

The priest became agitated and paced back and forth in the room, cheering and cheering, like a child. He said excitedly: "Su Su, imagine what kind of life form exists when the god-man genes in our body reach 100 percent, immortal, calling for wind and rain...... At that time, we will no longer be human, we will be gods! ”

Looking at the priest's crazy appearance, Dongfang Susu felt shuddered, and at this moment, she felt that the priest was more likely to be insane.

smiled awkwardly, didn't dare to refute, and could only echo: "That's congratulations, I hope the priest will study it as soon as possible......"

"But......" The priest, who was still burning like a flame with excitement just now, was like a basin of cold water poured on his head at this moment, and his whole body grew old, and he sighed helplessly: "However, I don't have enough time. ”

Dongfang Susu was about to open his mouth to comfort a few words, but the priest suddenly raised his head suddenly, looked at her intently, and prayed like a child: "Susu, can you help me, now, only you can help me, please, you must help me!" ”

Dongfang Susu was taken aback, in the face of such a priest, she was a little at a loss, so she had to speak, "Priest, I will definitely help you, no matter what you ask, I will help you." ”

"Really!" The priest cried with joy: "You are willing to help me with anything!" ”

"Yes...... But what exactly do you want me to do? Dongfang Susu was confused.

Cluck......

The strange laughter rang out again, and the priest looked up, revealing a voice like the grinding teeth of a beast under the silver mask.

"Let me eat you!"
