Chapter 501: The Fourth Evolutionary Ability

When Xia Qing, who was wearing the third-level field protective clothing, saw Yang Jin, she couldn't help but want to complain.

As cruel as this stingy person is to others, he is also as generous to himself. Since the advent of special protective clothing, this guy has never worn a third-level protective clothing in the field again.

Yang Jin didn't understand Xia Qing's resentment. He walked over quickly with bright eyes and asked in a low voice, "Have you rested well?"

Xia Qing nodded, "Captain Yang, do you think the Evolved Bear will come back?"

Yang Jin speculated, "The evolved animals have very strong magnetic and olfactory senses, and they will actively avoid polluted dangerous areas. So until the danger here is completely eliminated, the evolved bears will not come back here to look for food."

Third Brother said that it would take at least half a year to completely eliminate the danger caused by the poison gas bombs here. Xia Qing felt relieved and asked humbly, "Is the magnetic sense you just mentioned also an evolutionary ability?"

This was the first time Xia Qing had heard the word "magnetic sense". Because Yang Jin put it together with the word "sense of smell" which represents ability, Xia Qing judged that it was probably an evolutionary ability that he had never heard of.

"Yes, magnetic sense is also a kind of evolutionary ability. It was officially named last month." Yang Jin used the key to open the iron door and invited Xia Qing to enter the command room. "Magnetic sense is a keen sense of changes in the situation. This ability allows animals to identify potential threats and take actions to protect themselves and actively avoid danger."

incredible!
Xia Qing seized the opportunity to ask, "Captain Yang, is magnetic perception unique to advanced evolved animals, or is it common to all animals?"

Seeing Xia Qing looking at him with a pair of beautiful eyes full of curiosity, Yang Jin explained without reservation, "It is not clear whether it is common to all animals. Now we only know that most mammals have this ability, including humans. Research on this ability has just begun, and even whether it is classified as an evolved ability of the brain or an evolved ability of touch has not been determined. Magnetic sense can be understood as what we call the 'sixth sense', and Buddhism calls it 'consciousness'."

After taking off the protective mask, Yang Jin poured a glass of water for Xia Qing and continued to explain her doubts, "Before the natural disaster, researchers called it 'extrasensory perception'. Because this perception is not obtained through vision, hearing, smell, taste and touch."

Sixth sense? Xia Qing also took off her protective mask and gloves, holding a hot water cup, and asked Yang Jin, "Is the magnetic perception ability of humans after evolution on Blue Star generally lower than that of evolved animals?"

Yang Jin nodded, "That's true. Humans have low magnetic perception, which is related to their living environment."

"In the agricultural society, humans depended on nature and coexisted with it. During this period, the difference between humans' magnetic perception and that of animals should not have been great. After entering the industrial society, humans became opposed to nature and began to plunder natural resources crazily. After entering the information society, humans immersed themselves in the virtual space they created, and became increasingly distant from nature."

"Relying on their developed brains, humans have gradually built a living environment that is several times safer than that of other animals. The vast majority of humans are in a safe environment from birth to death, so their vigilance has degraded." Yang Jin took out the Green Light Jerky from his backpack and placed it on the table, motioning Xia Qing not to just drink water, but to try his jerky.

"Thank you." Xia Qing took a piece of dried meat and continued to ask, "Why is this ability named magnetic perception instead of alertness, extrasensory perception or telepathy?"

Yang Jin explained, "As to what the sixth sense or alertness is, there is still no widely recognized and verified argument. Psychologists believe that alertness belongs to the deep consciousness, that is, the subconscious. The alertness ability discovered by researchers now is related to the ability to sense magnetic fields, so it is named magnetic sense. It can be simply considered that magnetic sense is a type of sixth sense or alertness that has been confirmed to exist. As for whether there are other types, further research and confirmation is needed."

"Magnetic field sensing?"

Xia Qing tried hard to recall the knowledge of magnetic fields she had learned in junior high school before the natural disaster. But everything had changed in the past ten years, and she could only vaguely remember sitting in a clean and bright physics laboratory, watching how the magnetic needle rotated in different directions at different positions on the wire.

Yang Jin explained as simply as possible, "Magnetic field induction means that people can feel the magnetic field and respond to changes in the magnetic field. The magnetic field is generated by magnets or electric currents. Living organisms have weak biological currents. For example, when we blink our eyes, we generate 5-6 millivolts of voltage, when our heart beats, we generate 1-2 millivolts of voltage, and when the brain thinks about a problem, it also generates 0.2-1 millivolts of voltage."

"Those who have evolved their magnetic sense can keenly perceive the surrounding environment, including the magnetic field caused by the bioelectric current in humans, animals and plants and the changes in the magnetic field of other magnets. Xu Pin of the Sufeng team may have the ability of evolved magnetic sense."

The reason why I say "should" is because Xu Pin has been blown to pieces, and it is impossible to confirm whether he is a magnetic evolutionist. Xia Qing suddenly realized: It turns out that she can detect that something is wrong with the plants because the biomagnetic field in the plants has changed!

So she and Yuan Yan were both evolutionists with magnetic perception ability. Yuan Yan was a dual-element evolutionist, while she herself was a quadruple-element evolutionist!
Xia Qing tried hard to suppress his excitement, and tried to calmly and sincerely praise the ally in front of him who provided him with important information. "Captain Yang, you are really amazing. You know everything. You can even remember the size of the bioelectric current generated by various human movements."

Yang Jin smiled, his beautiful eyes curled up, like a beautiful bad fox, "Because I am a brain evolver."

I……

Where is my sheep boss? Come here quickly and teach this fox how to be a qualified human being!
The bad fox and stingy Yang Jin found out that Xia Qing was very interested in magnetic sense, so he stood up and poured some hot water for her so that she could continue to warm her hands with the cup. He proposed a deal, "I have research materials in this area, would you like to exchange them? But the price is not low."

I……

Xia Qing picked up the water cup and took a big sip, suppressing the urge to beat someone up. However, he was surprised by the familiar taste of the water, "What is this?"

Unpolluted spring water?!

Yang Jin nodded, "Although it's a little off, it's still edible. You can drink it."

He made it very clear: This is not a spring in your territory.

If it's not from Xia Qing's territory, then it was brought by Yang Jin from the Sea of ​​Death. It seems that he has firmly grasped the spring.

"You are so modest. This water tastes great." Xia Qing took another sip and sincerely negotiated with the stingy man, "I want to exchange the research materials you mentioned and all the knowledge and materials you can bring out for exchange. Please give me a fair price."

Fifteen-year-old Xia Qing was dragged into the brutal competition for survival before she had time to learn scientific knowledge in depth. It's not that she didn't want to learn, but she didn't have the opportunity. Now that living conditions are better, Xia Qing wants to learn as much as possible and improve her survival skills.

"Fifty kilograms of walnuts." Yang Jin opened his mouth wide.

"Seventy kilograms." This time, Xia Qing not only did not bargain, but also increased the price by twenty kilograms, but she had additional conditions.

"Twenty kilograms will be used to exchange for your existing inventory. The extra fifty kilograms will be used to exchange for the knowledge you will acquire and share in the future. We will be able to install a ground mobile communication base station here by the end of the year, and then we will be able to form a local area network, which will make data transmission much more convenient than it is now. For you, this transaction is just a matter of pressing the send button after you have acquired shared knowledge. What do you think?"

She is really smart and knows how to grasp the key points. Yang Jin smiled again and raised his teacup, "Then it's settled?"

"deal."

Xia Qing raised the glass and drank it all.

Thanks to book friends Xinshi Rulian V and 0534 for the rewards, and thank you all for your subscriptions and voting support.

The word "magnetic sense" is just like "戕 Element" and "颐 Element", which is a random name given by the author to indicate that this evolutionary ability is related to magnetic field induction. Any similarity is purely coincidental.
