Chapter 451: 278: Conversation and the World’s Past
“Among the Heavenly People, you are the one who understands him the most right now.”
“Can you tell me?”
“What exactly are the Heavenly People, and why do they hate humans so much that they intend to annihilate them?”
“And… is there any way to completely kill these bastards?”
At this moment.
Chen Sheng’s voice echoed.
It brought Li Wuji back from his trance.
Now, he has already been noticed by the Heavenly People.
Even if he wants to hide, he cannot.
It’s better to understand the enemy well and then enhance himself as much as possible.
And then crush the enemy into ashes.
“Alright.”
Li Wuji did not refuse.
He lowered his head and pondered, as if organizing his words.
Chen Sheng didn’t hurry him.
He just quietly waited for his answer.
After a long while.
Li Wuji finally acted.
He sat in front of Chen Sheng.
The old man slowly stretched out his arm.
“You probably know from Vermilion Bird’s words that the Heavenly People were originally a type of human, right?”
Chen Sheng nodded.
He knew about this.
“The matter of the Heavenly People must be traced back to the time when mankind was still ignorant and their spiritual wisdom had not yet been awakened.”
Li Wuji’s arm quickly moved, leaving vague shadows on the blackboard.
“We humans evolved step by step from apes, which you should know.”
Evolution.
As a modern human, he naturally knew about this theory.
Chen Sheng did not speak.
He just silently waited for the other party’s following words.
“Then you should also know that evolution is not a fixed path.”
“Just like tigers and cats, they have a common ancestor, but at some point, they followed different evolutionary paths, either because of the environment or other factors.”
“Thus, huge differences emerged.”
“This is the case with Heavenly People and Homo sapiens.”
“We both originated from the same ancestor, but took different paths in evolution.”
“The speed of evolution for Heavenly People was much faster than that for Homo sapiens.”
“They have stronger bones and muscles, and their bodies exceeded those of ancient Homo sapiens.”
“At that time, the concept of tribes didn’t even exist.”
“Both Heavenly People and Homo sapiens were scattered around the world in groups.”
“Survival of the fittest, the weak being food for the strong, the same as always.”
“To survive, contention was unavoidable.”
“However, for a long time, in wars to occupy territory and obtain food, the Heavenly People had an absolute advantage.”
“One Heavenly Person could even fight against five or six Homo sapiens at once.”
“So, the abilities of Heavenly People are the result of evolution?”
Chen Sheng asked doubtfully.
He raised his eyebrows, seemingly very surprised.
From the previously seen dormant Heavenly Person.
There wasn’t much difference between Heavenly People and humans in appearance.
They were just more handsome and tall than ordinary people.
Li Wuji’s theory could correspond.
However,
Chen Sheng’s understanding of evolution was that creatures gradually adapted to the environment and evolved in a direction that was more conducive to survival.
Could the immortality of Heavenly People be considered in line with this?
And that insanely strong Authority Power, what about that?
It’s like everyone is playing a role-playing game together.
Other players are honestly leveling up and learning skills.
While you Heavenly People go straight to using cheats, right?
Infinite health, 999 damage per hit, right?
“No.”
Li Wuji was not surprised by Chen Sheng’s doubts.
When he had learned about this history, he had also been puzzled.
“In the early stages of tribal development, although Heavenly People once had higher positions in the food chain than Homo sapiens due to their strong physiques,”
“Their reproductive abilities were nowhere near as impressive as Homo sapiens’, and thus could not completely annihilate them.”
“Moreover, the early advantages allowed them to occupy habitable areas on various continents.”
“The situation began to gradually reverse over time.”
“A comfortable environment slowed down the pace of evolution.”
“Additionally, at that time, Heavenly People didn’t understand the dangers of marrying close relatives, resulting in an extremely high incidence of deformity in their offspring.”
“On the other hand, we Homo sapiens, living in harsh environments for a long period, not only evolved stronger bodies, but also had increasingly stronger reproductive abilities.”
“Moreover, we learned teamwork, how to set traps and create weapons. Homo sapiens began to be able to hunt large beasts.”
“This marked the beginning of the Heavenly People’s catastrophe.”
At this point,
Chen Sheng was startled,
“The Heavenly People’s… catastrophe?”
“That’s right.”
Li Wuji slowly nodded his head,
“After gaining much more powerful strength and conquering the vast majority of species,”
“We Homo sapiens naturally began to challenge the Heavenly People.”
“As a result, as I said earlier,”
“Being in a comfortable and relatively safe environment for a long time, most Heavenly People of that time had already forgotten how to fight.”
“Faced with numerous Homo sapiens who knew teamwork, the Heavenly People could be said to have no resistance.”
At this point.
The arm that had been swiftly slashing through the air on the blackboard gradually slowed down.
Li Wuji showed hesitation,
As if struggling to decide whether to tell Chen Sheng about the events that followed.
“What’s wrong?”
Feeling Li Wuji’s pause,
Chen Sheng asked.
Li Wuji hesitated for a moment.
His arm started moving again, but instead of answering Chen Sheng’s question directly,
He raised a new question.
“Chen Sheng.”
“What if one day, you find that your position is not absolutely righteous?”
