842. Infinite Water World (9)

Pollution is becoming more and more serious, mainly from the accumulation of methane, carbon, high oxygen, low-density metal debris and a variety of other harmful substances in the air, long-term exposure to the outdoors, even if the whole body is wrapped tightly with leather, hemp, animal skin, because the body's self-circulation ability is not enough to effectively complete the metabolic system, people who go out to find water to survive often die of various strange diseases.

The reduction of red blood cells brings about the cancerous transformation of the skin, and then causes visceral diseases in the process of shedding.

Over the course of tens of thousands of years, humans have evolved new abilities that are unimaginable in various garden greenhouses in harsh environments. Of course, similar new abilities, whether it is ordinary humans or mutants, are by no means a good thing, especially to the function of reproduction is a fundamental blow, these new humans with special abilities, not only have lost the ability to pass on the ancestry, but even the need for similar genetic continuation has been lost, and become another kind of new species close to the ferocious beast, the failure of organs is extremely slow, the life span is long, and the harm caused is undoubtedly particularly far-reaching.

Their digestive system has been completely renovated, they can eat almost any self-circulating chemical on Earth, they have an excellent appetite, they are not afraid to be cold, oil and liquid methane are the basic water supplies, and rotting wood and carbon and aluminum, which are buried shallowly below the surface, are basic foods, and these highly toxic substances have pushed the new humans to evolve in more extreme directions.

As for young leaves, tubers, and fruit seeds, these foods that taste better and are easier to digest and absorb than ordinary humans, mutant humans completely ignore them. Their favorite is meat with high protein and fat, which they are keen to pick and tender, as for ordinary humans with the same root and no mutation, they are not the main predators of mutants, beasts of prey, birds and some collagen-rich insects are their favorites.

Of course, if it is an elite human who hides in the fortress all year round and has not been affected by the radiation layer to the skin, fat and muscle groups, it is naturally loved by mutants, and it is clearly a great nourishment. It is obviously not easy to find similar food, so it is extremely rare, and the elite people are well aware of all kinds of dangers in the wild, and they will never go out easily, and even if they open their doors to travel, they must have done a good job of protection in all aspects.

The distinctive characteristics of mutants are that their hair has faded all over their bodies, their skin is pale lead, and their fingernails are more than five centimeters long, which are powerful weapons for them to climb and fight, and their nails are as thick as five millimeters, and their cutting power is no less than that of diamond-plated blades. Their teeth are also abnormally strong, and ordinary cast iron rods break when bitten, but the strange thing is that the whole body is white, neat and beautiful. Their skin, muscle groups, organs, cranial nerves, and blood vessels throughout the body are still made up of collagen-like substances, but it is clear that their inner texture has been completely transformed.

The Internet is the technological product of the elite humans living in the fortress, and the encyclopedia entry includes both a sectional anatomy of the captured mutants and a detailed analysis of their molecular level. The overall material composition of mutant people is a material that has never been found in nature, the degree of evolution of their physique is incredibly high, the central nervous system has completely disappeared, and the tactile positioning organs are densely covered with all the pores of the body, even if they tighten their mouth and nose and cut off from eating and water, it is estimated that they can live for a month, and even the density and speed of thinking nerves are many times higher than that of ordinary humans.

Firearms and ammunition, laser projectiles, and even ion hand cannons are not a significant threat to mutants, and their skin is almost as high as the high-strength defense of nano-sized materials.

And the reason why mutant humans are the evolution of human beings rather than degradation is precisely because of this, their self-circulation system is many times more perfect than that of ordinary humans, and their ability to resist disease and survive in response to nature are extremely strong. At least the humans on this planet have not yet cultivated a shameless civilization that desperately puts gold on their faces.

In the history of mankind in millions of years, there have been countless wars, and the wars have affected the human ecosystem of the entire planet, until more than 10,000 years ago, entering the era of electrification, and the multi-regional means of communication have come to the process of diversification and deepening, and the scale and intensity of wars have only slightly decreased.

Nearly 8,000 years ago, with the vigorous development of the Internet, the global mechanism of innovation on a larger scale, and the burning of the prairie became more and more impoverished, almost all the national governments or tribes in the inland areas came up with a mutual tacit strategy, although it has not been seen in writing, pledges, treaties, peaceful evolution, democracy, liberalism, and independent will, in this earth plane, no one believes in these things.

But after all, a tacit understanding has been reached, that is, to put the means of competing interests into the chessboard, and use the application end of scientific and technological achievements as a bargaining chip, and spread the human races in various regions of the world to bet against each other, and the winner takes all, and can arbitrarily dispose of all the materials in the technologically backward regions, and include the talents who occupy the regions under their command.

This is not a state of slavery, and the occupied ethnic groups are all happy to welcome the entry of new technology, and the application of technology to people's livelihood is undoubtedly a great benefit for all living beings.

This kind of tacit understanding, compared with wars, political struggles and other deceitful disputes, is obviously much wiser for the scientific and technological progress of mankind, that is, I will not enslave you, you should not enslave me, if you are powerful, I will rely on you, if I am powerful, you will rely on me, anyway, no one needs to treat anyone badly.

This is, of course, due to the extreme purity of the human way of thinking on this planet, and the abandonment of artistic taste, so the competition for fame and fortune, the universal spiritual needs of human beings, have disappeared from their value here.

For this earth, the judgment of value is the first, and the yearning for the ideal ecological environment is the first, so the instinctive pursuit of scientific and technological innovation is not slackened because of the end of the war, but to work harder to the deeper and broader level, which is not related to the level of thinking, all driven by instinct.

It would be inaccurate to say that all works of art have been completely cut off, and the human singing voice, which follows the natural sound system, is the only literary and artistic appreciation. Everyone loves to listen to songs, and almost all of them are passionate about singing. Therefore, since hundreds of thousands of years ago, when human beings mastered the model of their own language conversation, from the rough percussion music to the birth of more and more elaborate more than 1,000 kinds of musical instruments, it has had an extremely vigorous living soil.

Nie Yuqing and Xiao Fan walked aimlessly, and they heard a lot of singing and musical instruments intermittently, and finally when night fell and the land was dark, they found a place where the crowd lived, not a closed and dead castle.
