Chapter 8 Ultra-Ancient Genetic Factors

TPC's exploration of the "Valley of the Royal Family" has been going on for more than ten years.

It's not that the Kalo base doesn't have the ability to explore this ancient ruin, but because TPC has always been cautious about this ancient ruin.

Speaking of which, we have to mention a special project that should theoretically have been terminated a long time ago - the Superpowered Project.

This program dates back to the Cold War in the twentieth century.

The vast majority of countries, including the two poles of the world at that time, were studying how to make ordinary humans superhumans with superpowers.

In addition to strengthening the body with various drugs, telekinesis with a wide range of applicability is also a mainstream research direction.

However, subject to the times and technology at that time, the so-called "Superpower Project" was more often just a gimmick.

Only the Soviet Union and the United States, the two superpowers of the time, have achieved certain success in this regard.

When the Earth Defense Force was established, through the sharing of internal information, the "Superpower Project" also became a semi-public top-secret document at that time.

It wasn't until the TPC took over all the data from the Wehrmacht that the "Superpowered Project" was completely declassified.

However, declassification does not mean that TPC will be able to replicate the original experiments of the Soviet Union and the United States.

The first is a question of philosophy.

TPC could not do the same as the Soviet Union and the United States, ignoring sacrifices and opposition, and piling up the only few experimental products with human lives.

The second is the contingency of superpowers.

There have always been people within the TPC who believe that it is not the Soviet Union and the United States that really created superpowers, but their cruel experiments that have screened out human beings who already have the qualities of superpowers.

In other words, the "Superpowered Project" is not universal at all, and it is not worth studying in depth.

At least at this stage, human beings do not have the technology to actually produce superpowers in batches.

This continued more than two years ago, when Galvin forcibly extracted Gatanjee's power and artificially created a new god.

With the birth of the "God of the Sky", a "Divine Rain of Revelation" that affected the whole world fell all over the world.

Since then, more and more humans have awakened to superpowers and become so-called "supernatural individuals".

Along with these humans, there were other creatures who were also affected by the heavy rain.

These creatures include, but are not limited to, cosmic people, monsters, spirits, animals, plants, and even some non-living special beings......

Thanks to this, TPC has finally restarted the original "Superpower Program" again.

After a new round of research, TPC found that its perception and source of superpowers seemed to have been disturbed by some kind of mistake.

It is basically certain that superpowers are generally derived from a specific gene.

The difference is that the source of this particular gene varies.

There are probably two of the most well-known of these.

One theory is that this particular gene came from an ultra-ancient civilization.

After all, the excavations of so many relics of ultra-ancient civilizations around the world prove that there were superpowers as early as 30 million years ago during the period of super-ancient civilizations.

Although, according to the current situation, the ultra-ancient civilization has long been extinct.

But their genes may have long been integrated into the Earth's biosphere and become part of the Earth's biosphere.

Even bolder to imagine, did humans from ancient civilizations have superpowers in the first place?

If the super-ancient humans did not have superpowers from the beginning, but obtained superpowers by studying the existence of giants.

So, who can guarantee that ultra-ancient humans did not experiment with other creatures on Earth?

- Although the ultra-ancient civilization perished, the creatures and monsters that were modified by the super-ancient humans remained, and the modified genes were transmitted to the entire earth's ecosystem.

This is the consistent rhetoric of scholars who support this theory.

Considering that there is sufficient evidence to support these theories, there are a significant number of TPC members who are convinced of this.

However, just as the origin of humanity has always been a subject of much debate.

There is another group of scholars who put forward a very different theory, which is also the view that the subsequent TPC has more agreed with - that is, convergent evolution.

Regardless of whether or not the ultra-ancient civilization has experimentally modified the life of the earth.

In terms of the source and importance of superpowers, they did not think that the ultra-ancient civilization would recklessly transform other creatures in the ecosystem in batches.

Moreover, there is one of the most important pieces of evidence that supports this argument, and that is reproductive segregation.

All creatures that have been modified are more or less at odds with the original biological race.

In this case, unless the ultra-ancient civilization has made the same modification to all creatures in a certain area, those modified genes will never be inherited through reproduction.

In this regard, those ultra-ancient monsters of "individuals are races" are the best examples.

Not to mention leaving their own genetic factors to their offspring, the vast majority of ultra-ancient monsters don't even have the concept of their own kind.

In response to this, the scholars believe that that particular genetic factor is the result of convergent evolution.

In an overall ecosystem, different individuals and different populations often evolve the same morphological structure due to the same living environment and lifestyle.

And when there is a ridiculously powerful group of races in the earth's biome, other creatures will be more or less influenced by them, evolving abilities and postures similar to them.

The group of ultra-ancient humans from the stars, as well as the original Tiga who descended on the earth, are powerful beings that can affect the ecological evolution chain of the entire earth.

Due to the emergence of ultra-ancient humans and the first Diga, the ecological environment of the earth has undergone some changes.

The creatures that originally lived on Earth either passively accepted the influence or actively evolved into modern humans that were very similar to ultra-ancient humans and Tiga.

In this way, it can explain why the ultra-ancient humans of 30 million years ago are almost exactly the same as the current humans.

Because the human race on the earth today was originally a new species that imitated the evolution of ultra-ancient humans.

In this way, a new problem arises.

Is the current human race just imitating the appearance of super-ancient humans and evolving?

The answer, of course, is no!

Although the power of ultra-ancient humans was strong, their entire race combined was not as strong as the influence of giants.

Whether it is using science and technology to transform itself, or passively being influenced by the genetic factors of giants......

Ultra-ancient humans themselves were evolving into the form of "giants of light".

Affected by this, modern humans naturally have also evolved towards "giants of light".
