399. Natural selection

When Dr. Lin said this, Yan Xiuze's face changed suddenly, and he said categorically: "No! ”

Then, he seemed to feel that just saying these two words was not enough, and continued to explain carefully: "That's right, superpowers do have stronger force for ordinary people...... Yet we are human at heart. ”

"We still act according to the logic of human behavior and think with the human mind...... Essentially, we are not fundamentally different from 'ordinary people with guns'. ”

"So...... There is no such thing as being advanced or not. ”

"Of course, I also know that there are indeed a very small number of people among the superpowers who advocate the argument that 'superpowers are superior races', but this kind of racist rhetoric full of unreasonable discrimination is definitely not the mainstream view in the superpower circle today."

Dr. Lin listened to Yan Xiuze's righteous rebuttal, but laughed, waved his hand and said, "I said that it was just a heart-wrenching argument before, so don't take it too seriously." ”

"I can see why you've explained so much before, but in all fairness, maybe you did think that way in your subconscious, right?"

"Generally speaking, most of the superpowers will have superpowers, which means that you are stronger and less susceptible to diseases than ordinary people...... Even the lifespan will be much longer than that of the average person. ”

"Not to mention all sorts of unbelievable superpowers......"

"In this case, if you occasionally think that your life level is higher than that of ordinary people, it is understandable."

"But what I'm going to say today is...... This statement is not rigorous. ”

Dr. Lin said slowly: "The process of transforming from an ordinary person to a super-powerful person cannot be regarded as a 'life level jump', but only a simple 'evolution'. ”

"Evolution?" Yan Xiuze was puzzled: "This doesn't sound like a big difference with a life leap?" ”

"The difference between the two is still very big." Dr. Lin shook his head: "If you think about it, human beings evolved from ancient apes, and in the process, our tails gradually disappeared, so do you think the process of 'tail disappearance' is 'evolution' or 'degradation'?" ”

"Judging from the results, the human being is missing one part, so it looks like it should be degraded, right? However, due to changes in the environment, the tail has changed from a necessary thing to a burden, so after disappearing, it will naturally be more conducive to human survival, so it should be considered 'evolution', right? ”

"So, 'evolution' doesn't necessarily mean that you have something more, but more importantly, you become more fit to survive."

"The process of ordinary people transforming into superpowers is essentially a genetic mutation, and genetic mutation has no direction, so the superpowers have different appearances and superpowers...... But you can't guarantee that these superpowers will help you survive better. ”

"That's right, it's true that there are some more frustrating superpowers......," Yan Xiuze smiled bitterly.

"Chicken ribs? Are you misunderstanding me? Dr. Lin sneered, "What kind of superpowers do you think can be counted as chicken ribs?" ”

"Hmm......"

"Well, you've met so many superpowers so far, so I'll let you think about it, what do you think is the most useless superpower among so many superpowers?"

"This ......" Yan Xiuze pondered for a while, and said slowly: "I think it should be the one I met in my original world, and his superpower is 'a rhinoceros horn growing on the top of his head'." ”

"The problem is that Mr. Rhino Horn doesn't even have a super physique, it's the level of a normal person, and his super powers are still like this...... It was not practical, and I lost my job in the local area because of my appearance, so I had no choice but to join my organization...... All in all, it's very miserable......"

"Do you think this Mr. Rhino Horn has the most superpowers?" Dr. Lin asked rhetorically.

"That's it...... It's not very practical, it's true. Yan Xiuze scratched his head and said helplessly: "Not having a super physique means that he has zero basic role in hand-to-hand combat, and the strongest place on his body that can be used as a weapon is probably the horn on the top of his head...... But the problem is, if the rhino horn really wants to fight with people, I think it is more efficient to take a brick than to directly use the horn on the top of the head to top the person, right? ”

"You're right, if you put Mr. Rhino Horn and you in a dangerous environment at the same time, your survival rate will naturally be higher than that of Mr. Rhino Horn, and from this point of view, Mr. Rhino Horn's superpower that seems to be very 'chicken ribs' is really difficult to help him survive better."

"But that's not necessarily the case." Dr. Lin laughed, "I would venture to ask, what role did this Mr. Rhino Horn play in your original organization?" ”

"Well, I arranged for him to be a security guard at our main base with another superpower who wasn't very practical...... Responsible for the gatekeeper. ”

"But it's actually one of the safest places in the world, and it's basically unlikely to be in any danger."

"Uh...... Wait, you mean? Speaking of this, Yan Xiuze suddenly realized something and was stunned on the spot.

"That's right, since Mr. Rhinohorn's personal power is almost negligible, it is absolutely impossible for you, as a decision-maker, to give him any too dangerous work...... And because of your own superior strength, you often have to engage in some extremely dangerous tasks, wandering on the edge of life and death......"

"In this way, Mr. Rhinohorn, who has always been almost a civilian, will always be in the impregnable underground base, and there will be basically no danger to his life...... And you, who seem to be stronger and more 'practical' with superpowers, are always in danger, and the risk of falling is greater than that of Mr. Rhinohorn. ”

"If survival is the ultimate goal of living beings, although Mr. Rhino Horn has evolved into a relatively 'chicken rib' appearance, in modern society, he often has a stronger chance of survival than you powerful superpowers, and therefore has a greater chance of perpetuating his genes."

"And this is the 'natural selection' of modern society."

"Yes, genetic mutation does have no direction, but natural selection does!"

"It's like if you dig up a barrel of gold on an isolated island, and despite the high value of the gold, the currency of the indigenous tribes on that island is shells...... No matter how much gold you dig up, you won't be able to exchange it for the material resources you need to survive. ”
