Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Meng Chao took a deep breath.

Even with the memory fragments of his previous life as a background, he still felt that his three views had been strongly impacted.

But calm down and think carefully, what Ye Xiaoxing said is not impossible.

If it is the earth, just half a century is naturally not enough for human civilization, including human individuals, to produce essential mutations.

But here is another world.

From matter to spirit, everything is extremely unstable, as if everything is growing at an accelerated rate, evolving crazily, and surviving the fittest in the cruel selection of survival.

Dragon City was able to obtain so many black technologies in just fifty years, unlock the mysteries of runes and spiritual powers, and cultivate superhumans who can freely soar above the sea of ​​clouds.

How do you know that the satellite towns scattered in the depths of the Monster Mountains cannot get their own adventures?

"Student Meng Chao, you are a reaper. You should be able to see that many monsters should not exist at all from a biological point of view, right? For example, things like the 'Seven Star Tarantula' are like canine monsters and arthropods. The stitched body of a monster—this is a wild environment, can it evolve naturally?"

Ye Xiaoxing continued, "Everything shows that many monsters did not evolve autonomously, but...biological weapons concocted by prehistoric civilizations from other worlds.

"Of course, the prehistoric civilization of the other world has collapsed for a long time. Judging from the research results of the 'Prime Ancient Relics Research Institute' we established under the Transcendent Tower, it was at least a million years ago. The current monsters are still dominated by animal nature. Driven by instinct, without too much wisdom, and a clear intention to completely destroy us.

"But, after all, they have brains.

"Not just the mammalian brain, but the neural network of the ultimate sandworm that is complex enough to carry intelligence.

"In other words, some high-level monsters can run intelligence from the 'hardware' level.

"It's just that, in addition to hardware support, software is also needed, that is, teamwork, social division of labor, and tens of thousands of years of ideological and cultural constant watering, in order to condense into wisdom in the true sense.

"That's why, after we hunted down many doomsday beasts, we found that its brain is obviously very developed, with ganglia and brain sulcus circuits far surpassing ours, but it still has no awakening wisdom.

"The problem is that we can't confirm at all right now, how big the area that Dragon City has crossed over is, whether it is only the main city and a few new cities in the suburbs, or all the satellite towns have crossed over, even including dozens of cities under the jurisdiction of Dragon City. Townships and hundreds of villages.

"You know, even the smallest village has hundreds of people, and it can form a fairly complete human social system. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

"If this small village fell into the hands of a monster with mind control ability and brain 'hardware' developed enough to carry wisdom from the beginning of time travel, but for various reasons, this monster did not simply and rudely kill it. The villagers eat them all, but... peep into their brains, read their memories, learn their languages, and through them learn about the customs and cultures of the earth, social systems, governance models, methods of warfare, and ultimately, everything about us Strengths and weaknesses, how terrifying will this monster become?

"Or, the monster itself did not have wisdom and self-awareness, but the villagers who crossed over did a lot of things that broke through the bottom line of ethics and morality in order to survive, such as eating the corpses of the same kind, etc., and were distorted by the cruel environment into" Inhumans, once they discover the existence of Dragon City, won't they use the power of monsters to deal with Dragon City?"

"..."

Meng Chao thought for a while and said, "After all, we are compatriots who traveled together half a century ago. Are you sure that the residents of these satellite towns will definitely be hostile to us? Didn't you just say that the residents of Longwang Town, apart from loving the two Outside of the dimension, there is no strong aggressiveness?"

"Dragon King Town is a special case, because the 'sacred tree' that forms a symbiotic relationship with the residents there is a plant-like life form. The townspeople have been eating juice for a long time, and their aggressiveness has been greatly weakened."

Ye Xiaoxing said calmly, "Actually, according to the deduction of the sociologists from the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau, if there are other satellite towns that have traveled to the depths of the fog and spent fifty years in the wilderness, they will probably treat us Hostile and intensely aggressive."

Meng Chao said, "Why?"

"It's very simple. Think about the story of the starship that escaped from the earth in science fiction."

Ye Xiaoxing said, "If you are the captain of one of the starships, by attacking other starships, killing tens of thousands of the same kind, plundering their resources, and embarking on an extremely dark journey, at this time, You found a second starship, which looks larger than yours and has more powerful firepower. The other party even upholds the concept of morality and legal system on Earth. Excuse me, besides being the first to act first, what else can you do? Is there a second option?"

Meng Chao was silent.

I had to admit that Ye Xiaoxing was right.

Some bottom lines, once broken, can never turn back.

"Even for our Dragon City, it is impossible to allow all the satellite towns to degenerate into inhuman dens."

Ye Xiaoxing said, "We can tolerate the existence of Dragon King Town because they are harmless for the time being. As you said, cannibalism, 'trial of witches' and so on are all things of the previous generation, and now they are born by the 'Shenmu' It has nothing to do with the new generation, and the new generation has not found any crimes that break the bottom line except for the love of the two-dimensional element. Then, out of love for our compatriots and respect for the new customs, we don't need to implement compulsory measures against Longwang Town. For the time being , Let them immerse themselves in the two-dimensional world, and gain pure happiness and tranquility.

"However, if there is a satellite town that has a symbiotic relationship with carnivorous monsters, or under the influence of monsters, it develops the custom of cannibalism, the custom of burying living people, and the custom of sacrificing humans to monsters. Can we still sit idly by?

"Don't say it's impossible. It's the fifty-sixth year of the new era. In the long river of history, more than half a century is just a short moment. But calculated by the age of human birth, even if you give birth at the age of eighteen, it will take fifty-six years. , is enough to give birth to three generations.

"On Earth, there is a saying that there is a generation gap every ten years. The evolution rate of the other world is at least ten times faster than that of Earth. Three generations are enough to form a civilization that we cannot understand and absolutely cannot accept.

"From the perspective of practical interests, 'How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch'; from the perspective of the existence foundation of Dragon City and the belief of our human civilization, we must not tolerate the existence of this kind of devil's den, and ruin our great civilization. look.

"The problem is, we haven't found such a magic lair yet.

"But as long as this kind of magic cave exists, it will be much easier for them to find us. After all, the scale of Dragon City is so large. Since the era of the Great Expedition, it has left too many clues in the Monster Mountain Range.

"As long as they still remember a little bit of the art of war of human civilization, 'strike first is the strongest' is their only choice."

Meng Chao heard cold sweat, and said, "Group Leader Ye, you mean, these... deformed and mutated 'humans' want to use the power of monsters to completely wipe us out?"

"If it doesn't wipe us out, it turns us into what they are."

Ye Xiaoxing said, "In a hundred people, if one person has a tail on their buttocks, that person is a monster; but if ninety-nine out of a hundred people have a tail, the only one without a tail is a monster.

"These guys can't turn back. When they find out that Dragon City is too big to destroy us directly, the most likely way is to mess with us from the inside, try to pull us into the water, and let us break through everything about human nature. The bottom line, ultimately, becomes them."

Meng Chao closed his eyes and gently rubbed the bridge of his nose, really unwilling to believe it.

But with the memory fragments of his previous life, he knows better than anyone that Ye Xiaoxing's malicious conclusion is very likely to be very close to the truth.

"Student Meng Chao, please don't blame me for imagining the same kind of people in the past as evil. On the issue of civilization clashes, goodwill and malice are not important. Even if the other party is not evil but full of goodwill, they still regard us as the same kind, and even want to To save us, there is still the possibility of a very violent conflict with each other."

Ye Xiaoxing said, "Still taking Longwang Town as an example, suppose that by chance, a peerless strong man was born in Longwang Town, and this peerless strong man discovered the existence of Dragon City, and he is indeed full of goodwill and wants to What do you think he would do to save us?

"Will he sneak into Dragon City and kill all the most beautiful female stars in the city?"

Meng Chao was stunned: "What?"

"From the perspective of this strong man in Dragon King Town, women are all demons. The more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is. A woman's publicity will only provoke men to kill each other, and eventually destroy the entire civilization—this is not his paranoid intention." Rhapsody, but the history of Longwang Town, the imprint he engraved on the genetic level, and the indestructible belief that his parents taught him since he was a child."

Ye Xiaoxing said, "Burn all the witches in reality, let the 'Sacred Tree' bloom and bear fruit in Dragon City, and let all men fall into the arms of the two-dimensional saint—if this kind-hearted Dragon King Town really wants to save us, he You must have thought so, did you do this?

"No matter how we explain it, he can't understand what a normal relationship between a man and a woman means. He will only think that we are all bewitched by witches, so he will be more determined to burn all witches to death—maybe it will expand the scope of the attack. How about burning all the couples to death? After all, the couples from the perspective of "Dragon King Town Civilization" are probably the witch and her loyal dog!

"This example may not be particularly appropriate. In short, you can understand what I mean. Every civilization has its own internal logic, and it also has the instinct to expand outward and affect other civilizations. We and the 'lost satellite towns' ' The conflict was inevitable and, perhaps, has already occurred."
