MTL - Real Apocalypse Game-Chapter 473 The future of the brain ape
According to the design capability of the DF-41, it can carry 10 nuclear warheads, and the maximum range announced to the public is 14,000 kilometers. When launched in Asia, it can reach the sky over London in 16 minutes and Washington in 21 minutes.
As for the nearby areas such as New Delhi, Mumbai, etc., it is naturally faster, and there is absolutely no problem in ten minutes.
Therefore, according to Shen Feng's prediction, in about half an hour, we can know the results of these missiles after they are launched.
Shen Feng sat on the tire and drank water, while several ape cavalry soldiers with reverence on the side handed over a few apples and other fruits, which were the rations of the ape cavalry soldiers.
Without the consumption of human beings, the world where the stone statues are located in the end of the world is extremely rich in products. The canned food that can be kept for a long time is enough for the consumption of more than two thousand brain apes. For them, it is a world like heaven.
It is precisely because of this that the lives of the brain apes are still prosperous, at least fresh fruits can be supplied openly, and they even built several orchards in the center of the ruined city under the leadership of Kuafu.
Shen Feng was not polite, picked up an apple, wiped it on his clothes casually, and put it on his mouth and took a big bite.
A slightly sour juice burst out in the sweetness and flowed down the corner of his mouth.
Shen Feng didn't bother to wipe his mouth, he took another bite, almost half an apple in two bites, chewing with a bulging mouth, squinting at the grey tide that was constantly swallowing the stone statue in the distance.
At this time, Kuafu also sat down beside Shen Feng, handed a cigarette and said:
"Come on one?"
Shen Feng shook his head:
"The lungs are diseased, and I dare not smoke."
Kuafu was taken aback, although he didn't know what Shen Feng meant by the disease, it shouldn't be a good thing.
Immediately he struck a match, lit a cigarette for himself, took a big gulp, closed his eyes in satisfaction, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said:
"Humans are really fascinating creatures. The cigarettes alone make us apes look down on them, tsk tsk, who would have thought that the leaves could be lit and stuffed into their mouths when they were in the forest. How many years did it take for long species to evolve from seeing a forest fire to learning to smoke?"
Shen Feng smiled and said:
"It was the Indians who first started smoking, and it didn't spread to Europe until the 16th century. Then when the Indians were gradually slaughtered and went extinct, tobacco also spread all over the world. Strictly speaking, the history of human smoking is only a few hundred Years are still very short."
Kuafu nodded slightly and sighed:
"It is indeed much shorter than I thought... But the first one of the brain ape family to smoke should be me."
Shen Feng turned his head to look at the brain ape wearing a blindfold, and understood that the other party suddenly said these things to get an answer.
At the moment, he turned his head to look at the gray tide in the distance and said:
"I know what you want to ask... The problem of reproductive isolation is still unsolved, because the evolution of the brain ape is a strong mutation, not only the brain structure itself has changed, but also in the direct transition from carbon-based to silicon-based In fact, we are the same, this transformation is like a malignant tumor to a certain extent, it is a kind of disease, so this trait cannot be inherited... That is to say, although you can interact with ordinary apes Species give birth to offspring, but there is a natural intelligent isolation... This is actually a kind of reproductive isolation."
Hearing Shen Feng's words, Kuafu's eyes quickly turned dark.
For this result, he himself is also prepared.
During the days when Shen Feng was away, Kuafu had been frantically searching for various books on biology and genetics in the library, and even started from scratch, trying to figure out how the brain ape family wanted to pass on their wisdom. go down.
It's just that the answers he got were straightforward and cruel.
The wisdom mutation of the brain ape family cannot be inherited at all, because this itself is a kind of transformation similar to disease.
If you want other apes to have superb intelligence, there is only one way, and that is time.
After the current enlightenment, it will take hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to re-travel the evolutionary path that Homo sapiens once took, until it becomes a brand new sapient ape.
It's just that the time span of several million years is too long, which is actually a kind of extinction for the brain ape family.
He also understands the facts that Shen Feng said, and also knows that if the other party really has a way to help them pass on their wisdom, they should not stand idly by.
Just hearing these words from the Savior with his own ears, Rao Shikuafu was already mentally prepared. At this time, the hand holding the cigarette was still shaking, and he could only forcefully control the despair and sadness in his heart.
After taking a few deep breaths, Kuafu turned his head and smiled at Shen Feng:
"Mr. Shen, thank you, I know you should try your best, but there are things in this world that humans can't do... But please keep this secret for me, and don't let other apes know, otherwise I'm afraid they'll go crazy in despair."
No matter how high the IQ these brain apes have after getting the semi-silicon-based brain, when they know that their group cannot continue and everything will eventually become dust, no one can bear it.
The meaning of their existence is also obliterated.
Then Kuafu took a sharp sip of the cigarette in his hand, directly sucked up the remaining half, took out another cigarette and lit it, and said with a smile:
"At least this way, I can open up to smoke, and maybe drink some good wine."
Shen Feng looked at the brain ape with sadness flashing in his eyes, and asked:
"Sorry, the issue of reproductive isolation is completely unsolved now... What are your plans next?"
At this time, Kuafu has recovered from the despair and sadness just now, at least on the surface, he grinned and looked into the distance, saying:
"Since that's the case, I'm going to go to the end of the world to have a look before everything is completely destroyed, to see the relics of human civilization that used to be splendid, the past submerged in dust and time... I heard about Uganda and the like. There is also a community of mountain gorillas, and I can also visit these former kin, and become a real primitive ape..."
At this time, he was leaning lazily against the wreckage of the vehicle beside him, but he felt a sense of relief.
As a wise man of the brain ape clan, he himself bears the future and hope of the entire clan. At this time, he understands that hope does not exist at all, as if his bones were pulled out in an instant.
Shen Feng raised the corner of his mouth and said:
"It's not that there is absolutely no way. The problem of reproductive isolation cannot be solved, but your offspring can still have wisdom. pnB will always exist, but I don't know if you can accept it."
Hearing this, Kuafu, who had almost collapsed just now, suddenly sat up straight, looked at Shen Feng with round eyes, and said in a trembling voice:
"Mr. Shen, the savior, please tell me! If you can really...if you can...let me do whatever I want!"
Looking at this ape wise man with a solemn face in front of him, Shen Feng no longer sells his secrets at this time, and also said with a solemn face:
"Let me ask you a question first. This question is, what is a brain ape? Is it an ape or a human?"
Kuafu answered without hesitation:
"of course…"
It's just that before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped.
This question, if you think about it carefully, is really difficult to answer.
What is a brain ape?
From the perspective of wisdom and habits, brain apes have long since separated from ordinary beast apes, and have evolved into creatures with advanced intelligence.
What they have is the thinking mode and wisdom civilization inherited from human beings.
It’s just that if the brain apes are humans~www.novelbuddy.com~ they are completely different from humans in appearance, and in terms of self-cognition, they are still ape’s cognition, but they are not the same clan like those beasts, and Is a higher brain ape.
In other words, the brain ape is the brain ape, and the brain ape is the consciousness carried in their semi-silicon-based brain!
Seeing Kuafu's face showing embarrassment, this ape sage with extremely high intelligence fell into the logical labyrinth of philosophy at this time, Shen Feng couldn't help but smile.
Then he no longer entangled in this issue, but looked solemn and said to Kuafu:
"The plan is difficult and difficult, simple and simple. Since the silicon-based brain traits of the brain ape family cannot be inherited, and the offspring with higher intelligence cannot be reproduced, then you only need to replace the body that can reproduce intelligent offspring. Isolation technology cannot be broken through, but organ replacement technology is much more mature, and rejection is also not a problem.”
Kuafu was shocked. Although he expected the horror level of this plan, he was still so shocked that he didn't even notice that the cigarette in his hand burned his fingers, and trembled:
"You mean...you mean...let the ape clan give up their ape identity and replace..."
