Chapter 531 Normalization
Most of the insiders among Jiang Chanji and the others were amused by the whims of these supernatural beings—they could think of clones, their brains are big enough!

However, a small number of people don't think so. For example, Aurora is very serious, and even startled at first and then admired secretly, because strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with them. Isn't parthenogenesis a clone in a natural environment?
When she encountered two hermit monkeys in the depression, she felt unspeakably awkward, but the situation was critical at that time, and she couldn't allow her to think too much, so she ignored it.

Thinking about it now, in a small group of the same species, two individuals with the same ability appear at the same time, and the ability itself is quite rare. This is impossible on the earth. Even among the billions of human beings, there are several Are the individual abilities the same?Especially those extremely rare abilities like Qianyang, Chen Yiyi, No. 15, Zhao Man, Luisa, Arabella, etc., are almost never heard of being repeated. If there are people who are proficient in biology and calm enough, they would In a swale, clones or parthenogenesis might immediately come to mind.

In short, we should not underestimate these unorganized superhumans. Some of them may have high education and high IQ, but they just don't want to join any organization for personal reasons. No matter in terms of education, experience, and strength, they may not be inferior to students or even teachers like them. .

Ouyang Caiyue watched Jiang Chanji's face, trying to find the answer from his face.

"You see, I'm useless. Do you think I'm the one who can sneak into the laboratory to understand these secrets?" He was a little embarrassed by her, and spread his hands.

This sentence seemed very convincing, Ouyang Caiyue gave up.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter what you do, as long as you have money, you can get it." She didn't bother to think deeply, sometimes it's not good to think too much and know too many secrets.

"The premise is that you can hunt and kill those monkeys." Jiang Chanji reminded, "If you can't even find them, it will be a waste of time."

"Heh~ you underestimate me?" She curled her lips disdainfully, "Without diamonds, who would dare to do porcelain work? I know you. Although there are some rookies among the people present today, most of them are prepared. Come, including me."

Jiang Chanji was puzzled, and was about to ask, when he saw another cart driving goods from a distance, and stopped at the door of the abandoned elementary school.

As soon as the car door was opened, the noisy barking of dogs immediately caused headaches.

There are [-] to [-] iron cages in the carriage, and inside the cages are dogs of different types, large and small, all of which are dogs with excellent hound bloodlines, and may even include police dogs and military dogs.

Including Ouyang Caiyue, many extraordinary people surrounded her. Not long after, she came back with a Springer Spaniel on a leash, and the rest of the dogs were taken away by different extraordinary people.

"How is it? This is a dog I borrowed from a friend." She took out dog snacks from a pocket of her overalls jacket, knelt down and fed it, and it happily ate it up. It seemed that it was no stranger to her.

"Damn it! I hate dogs the most! Stinky dogs! Rotten dogs!" Mio kept whining when he saw so many dogs.

"Are you planning to... use dogs to find those monkeys?" Jiang Chanji understood.

"Of course, look." Ouyang Caiyue pointed to the rostrum.

On the rostrum, some transcendents with dogs were already queuing up, and a teacher was distributing some kind of small box to them.

Ouyang Caiyue also led the dog to get a small box, and when she got it back, Jiang Chanji and the others were curious, so she opened the box and showed it to them.

Inside the box... is a small piece of cloth.

"Someone called in advance. Your school is willing to provide each dog handler with a cloth stained with monkey smell." In order to prevent the smell from evaporating, she asked them to take a look and close the box. Anyway, a piece of cloth is nothing to look at. .

Jiang Chanji and the others exchanged glances, these cloths must have smelled from the stump they brought back.

They admire these people more and more, and their thinking is flexible enough.

"Even if you have dogs, the search area may be thousands of square kilometers. It's not easy for twenty or thirty dogs to smell a few invisible monkeys within thousands of square kilometers, isn't it?" Jiang Chanji asked doubtfully.

"Of course it's not easy. If it was easy, who would be taken advantage of and pay so much money?" Ouyang Caiyue pouted at the crowd, "My dog ​​is a retired bomb-seeking dog, and it is an ordinary dog, but it is said that they have someone The dog has awakened the ability, has a super-sensitive sense of smell dozens of times to a hundred times stronger than ordinary dogs, and can capture a faint scent floating several kilometers away... Unfortunately, such a dog is too expensive, I can’t afford it.”

Jiang Chanji and the others secretly regretted that Ron was not here, otherwise, wouldn't they also have a family of dogs?

"How much is a dog like that? Who can I buy it from?" Aurora asked.

Ouyang Caiyue took a few glances at Aurora. She saw Aurora mobilize two helicopters to rescue the plane crash in the forest last time, so she knew that he was a rich man.

"It's meaningless to buy it temporarily. It won't obey you and obey your orders immediately." She shook her head. "Even if you buy it, it will take a while to develop feelings and train cooperation."

"Okay..." Aurora was a little disappointed.

"Then your dog is far worse than others? Can it be useful?" Jiang Chanji asked.

Ouyang Caiyue glared and raised her eyebrows, "What are you talking about? What do you call me a dog?"

"No... I didn't mean that..." He hurriedly clarified, "It's easy to say for a while."

Ouyang Caiyue held back her anger and said: "It is definitely not possible to track those monkeys with it, but I can use it to track the awakened dog led by others. Do you understand that the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole later? I will cut the beard after I find it. "

Jiang Chanji and the others were speechless. Ouyang Caiyue's plan was like those who sprinkled lime powder in street fights, unrefined, but theoretically useful.

"You're quite honest today. You say whatever you ask, and you don't even close the door. It's not like your character." He said, "As the saying goes, you don't have to be courteous..."

Ouyang Caiyue was caught by what he said, and coughed dryly and said: "I'm a bit lonely and lonely, and I'm looking for a partner and don't want to share the money... I think you girls don't understand anything, so I'll be more generous , take you to look for it together, anyway, what you want is credits, not money, right?"

"It turns out that you are planning this wishful thinking..."

Jiang Chanji looked back at Aurora and the others. They didn't have any objections. They each took what they needed. In fact, Xiaosui and the others didn't even lack credits. Everyone's safety is at stake.

"How is it? No problem?" Ouyang Caiyue confirmed.

"Okay, we agree." He nodded, "But we only help you find monkeys and deal with monkeys, and we don't help you fight other extraordinary people. If you want to cut off a beard, you have to ask them if they agree."

Ouyang Caiyue shrugged, it doesn't matter if she agrees to him now, anyway, won't she be adaptable when the time comes?

Someone coughed lightly, Jiang Chanji turned around and found No. 15 was staring at him, and gave him a wink, as if telling him to go aside with her, she had something to say.

He walked a little further away from her and asked, "What's the matter? Why do you want to avoid talking about it?"

"I won't let that person hear it." No. 15 looked at Ouyang Caiyue, "It doesn't look like this person has a tight mouth."

This is true, Ouyang Caiyue is the kind of person who can turn around and sell the secret she just heard.

"Go and tell your dean, let her tell everyone present that it's best to capture a monkey alive," she said.

Jiang Chanji frowned, "Why? The risk and difficulty of capturing alive is too great! Those people are not fools, even if someone is willing to take the risk, the asking price will have to be doubled or several times..."

"If I can catch one alive, I will have a way to find the resonance frequency of the lymph fluid in their ears. Even if I encounter hundreds or thousands of these monkeys in the future, I can at least save my life." No. 15 said coldly, "Of course, I There is no guarantee that there is something similar to lymph in their auditory system. If not, it will be a waste of money, and I will not pay the money, so see if you want to gamble, anyway, I will not lose money .”

"..."

Jiang Chanji thought about it, this request was reasonable and not too much, but he couldn't decide, the school paid for it.

"Okay, I'll go talk to the dean."

No. 33 watched him walk back suspiciously, and was about to ask what No. 15 had said. He waved his hand and went to the dean first, because the dean already wanted to leave.

In order to take care of candidates from foreign countries or far away, as in the past, this year's admissions season is more than one day, so it is called the admissions season instead of the admissions day. The extraordinary teachers have no time to get away. The dean of the school has many other things besides presiding over the admission ceremony. be busy.

He ran over and told the head of the school about the request on the 15th, and the head of the school nodded and agreed after a moment of pondering, because the significance of capturing a cryptomonkey alive could help them understand more about the characteristics of this animal.

She announced in public that the bounty for live capture would be increased to five times the basic bounty, and there was only one quota, first come, first served. However, in order to reduce the difficulty, the only requirement was that the head and torso should remain intact and not suffer fatal injuries, and the limbs did not matter.

As soon as this remark came out, the atmosphere at the scene became even more heated. There were many people who thought they had experienced big storms, and they were not asked to capture a prehistoric giant crocodile, but a monkey, and they were also allowed to beat the monkey into half-mutilated pieces before It is enough sincerity to capture alive, and it is not intentional to embarrass them.In their eyes, the image of the dean has become that of a virgin who spread money.

Some people who received the infrared mirror couldn't wait any longer, and set off in a hurry, for fear of falling behind.

Those with more experience are not in a hurry. They even have their own team, which is helping them optimize the most efficient search route based on the map, sharpening their knives and chopping wood.

Ouyang Caiyue was even less anxious. While playing and feeding her friend's dog, she pretended to be inadvertently staring at a Transcendent who was leading a tall mastiff. She definitely couldn't blatantly follow him. distance tracking.

Taking advantage of Ouyang Caiyue's attention not here, Aurora winked at the others, and everyone gathered around.

"I thought of something just now, and I think I need to talk about it," she said. "It's about cloning and parthenogenesis."

She shared her thoughts.

Even if it is a clone or parthenogenesis, it does not mean that the genes of the previous generation are copied as they are for hundreds of years. The genes contained in the germ cells may be mutated, whether they are polluted by chemical compounds, artificial or natural radiation , and many other reasons may lead to gene mutations in germ cells, and the next generation will be slightly different from the previous generation—of course, the position of the mutation may also be in an unimportant or junk gene segment, and the next generation will be slightly different from the previous generation. Although the genes of the previous generation are not exactly the same, there is no difference on the surface.

What she said above is just the premise, what really matters is what follows.

"Don't you think it's strange? What is the ability of the Cryptomonkey? If it's invisibility, why are they so agile?" she asked.

In the depression, they felt that the recluse monkey leaped like the wind, its agility surpassed all primates on the earth, and its strength was not weak. It fled with a dead companion in its arms, and its speed did not slow down much.

"Born like this?" Jiang Chanji answered, "They were born so agile, and then awakened the ability to be invisible?"

"Maybe, but it may also be another situation." Aurora said solemnly: "In our common sense, a person or an animal can only awaken one kind of ability, but if the cryptomonkey started a few hundred thousand years ago Awakened the invisibility ability, and this ability has become their normal state during the evolution of hundreds of thousands of years, rather than the ability that requires awakening, and then awakened the body strengthening system on the basis of this normal state What about the ability? I don’t know if you can understand what I mean.”

It took Jiang Chanji and the others some time to understand what she meant, and when they understood, they all turned pale.

The cognition that a creature can only awaken one ability is based on the fact that the supernatural ability appeared on earth only a few decades ago, but if the time is prolonged and parthenogenesis is considered, it will be easier to awaken Once the awakening is no longer awakening, but becomes a characteristic of some kind of biological normalization, will they awaken new abilities on this basis?

For example, the dog with an extraordinary sense of smell that Ouyang Caiyue is staring at, its offspring reproduced through parthenogenesis are likely to awaken the same ability, so if it continues to reproduce from generation to generation, after a few hundred thousand years, the extraordinary sense of smell is likely to have disappeared. It has become a part of their physiology instead of an ability that needs to be awakened, so will they awaken a second new ability?
It's terrifying to think about it carefully, but they have no way to verify it. This is something that only time can verify.

If Aurora's conjecture is true, then the recluse monkeys may have awakened their body strengthening ability first, when strength and agility became their inherent physical qualities, and then awakened their invisibility ability after a few years, or on the contrary, the "channel" On the other side of the world, it is probably not uncommon for extraordinary animals like this to have two or more abilities.
