451. Bio-humanized and mechanically human
Such a high mortality rate has not diminished the desire of ordinary people to become superpowers...... After all, the high mortality rate is exchanged for power, money, social status, and other things that ordinary people dare not think of before.
And, in fact, as long as your strength becomes strong enough, the super high mortality rate of the superpower will not include the strong.
What made Yan Xiuze breathe a sigh of relief was that none of the friends he knew had died, and they were all still active in the front line of the superpower circle......
Although this is a kind of luck, it is not difficult to explain it...... Almost all of Yan Xiuze's friends have their own subordinate organizations, and the so-called "it's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree" is like this.
It can also be seen from the information that most of the superpowers who have died in the past 20 years are so-called "lone wolves".
However, even this does not seem to explain why the mortality rate of superpowers is so high...... Is it really because of serious infighting?
With such a question, Yan Xiuze quickly found the answer from various information on the Internet.
It turns out that this is no longer the era of 20 years ago, when "only superpowers can counterbalance superpowers".
Thanks to the development of biotechnology, an identity that was born from and different from the superpower has been created, that is, to transform people.
Through continuous research into super-powered bodies, drugs that can change human physical performance in a stable and long-term manner have been developed, despite the fact that the side effects of such drugs are extremely high, and the mortality rate after injection is as high as more than 80%...... However, due to the population base, there are still countless ordinary people who have obtained this medicine through various channels, and they are taking great risks, just to reach the sky in one step.
Ordinary people who have been injected with this potion, if they are lucky enough, can become the lucky "20%", with a super physique that is not inferior to that of the superpower, and even stronger than the superpower in some indicators...... In this way, he becomes a "superpower" without superpowers.
But more than a decade after the drug was introduced, the real side effects began to appear......
Contrary to the appearance of the "youthful permanence" of normal super-capable people, many biomodified people have shown signs of "pre-aging and aging" to varying degrees after taking the medicine for more than ten years, and the major organs in the body will also fail rapidly in just a few months, and eventually become a disabled person who can survive for a long time.
This is almost exactly the same sign as Howell syndrome enters its outbreak phase.
And as soon as such a big drawback came out, the vast majority of ordinary people began to shy away from this medicine...... After all, not everyone can accept exchanging their decades of life for those more than ten years of "rampant domineering".
And those reformers who have successfully taken the medicine during this period and enjoyed the dividends brought by their strong strength have already entered the game too deeply at this time, and they have long been unable to turn back.
Some of them accept the fact that they probably have more than a dozen or even a few years left to live, but many more reformers fall into despair because of this...... And began to blame the whole world for his bad luck, and began to take revenge on society like crazy.
Among them, a handful of reformers thought of the superpowers, and saw that the superpowers could stay young, while they would exhaust their life potential and die after a few years, and their hearts were extremely unbalanced...... Therefore, some people spontaneously set up an organization like the "Superpower Hunting Squad" to hunt down lone superpowers to satisfy their strong desire for revenge.
During this period, there have been rumors more than once that there is no scientific basis for such rumors as "eating the brain marrow of a superpowered person can delay the speed of premature aging of reformed people", and there are really a large number of reformed people who are sick and rushed to the doctor...... This is also a major reason for the conflict between the two sides.
Regardless of whether the remaining reformers have a tendency to take revenge on society, at least there is one thing that they have reached a consensus, and that is - time is short, and it is time to have fun.
In this only ten years of "peak", recklessness has become the standard behavior configuration of almost every biomorph, so the reputation of this group itself is not very good, and it has been more inclined to the chaotic camp from the beginning.
However, because the base of this group is far larger than that of the superpowers, about hundreds of thousands, it is extremely powerful for a while, and there is a tendency to overshadow the superpowers.
However, this oppressive advantage has collapsed under the rise of another group of people at the speed of light, that is, another category of transforming people - mechanical transformation people.
As mentioned above, the feud between the superpowers and the biocyborg has been around for a long time, and the two forces are constantly fighting...... Not to mention the infighting between the superpowered and the superpowered, the reformers and the reformers, it can be said that in the past twenty years, almost half of the earth's population has been accidentally killed or injured, which is the masterpiece of this group of "non-ordinary people".
And it is precisely because of this that ordinary people have been "affected by the pond fish" for various reasons, and the casualty index has also increased by a few percentage points.
And there are many lifelong disabilities in between.
Thanks to the development of modern technology, mechanical prosthetics are widely used in the daily life of people with disabilities...... Many high-end mechanical prostheses can even mimic the human nervous tissue system, and more and more people with disabilities are able to catch up with the footsteps of able-bodied humans.
However, the development of mechanical prosthetics did not stop there, and many experts and scholars in this field from the beginning had the ambition not only to enable the disabled to "return to ordinary life"!
This begins when the first mechanic adds a weapon system to his client's mechanical prosthesis...... As if Pandora's box had been opened, various "combat-type mechanical prostheses" sprung up from the market...... These mechanical prostheses, equipped with all kinds of bizarre weapons, have even turned many ordinary people who are paralyzed into war machines that can go up to the sky and the earth, and although they are expensive, it is clear that this is much safer than "biological humans" who need to overdraw their life potential and have only a dozen years left to live at most...... Also much stronger.
After all, flesh and blood are still difficult to resist steel, and most of the superpowers rely on their strange and unpredictable superpowers to compete with modern technology.
It is precisely because of this that the originally flourishing "bio-modified humans" have finally slowly faded out of the stage of history after more than ten years, although there are still a large number of them, but it is difficult to form a huge scale.
On the contrary, the prosperity of mechanical prosthetics, as well as the various weapons that are developed by modern technology and iterated at the speed of light, have made the "mechanical cyborgs" rise rapidly, and become an existence that can truly confront the scarcer number of superpowers!
