Starting as an infant, with parents who are blond-haired delinquents?

It's not even resembling that anymore; at this moment, this thing is begging for mercy!

This is hilarious! Instantly, all the tourists outside burst into laughter, repeatedly asking, "Is this really true?"

Shen Qiangwei and Shen Qiangwei, who had just been filled with fear, were now dumbfounded and pleading for mercy. How come their cunning appearance was different from before?

"They really know how to change their tune depending on the wind. It seems these monsters really can't stay with humans. These beasts have truly learned our two-faced nature to the fullest extent..."

Amidst the tourists' shock, the monsters, seeing that begging the staff was useless, turned to Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei outside the protective barrier to beg for mercy. However, the next second, they were pulled into a small dark room by the staff.

As the booming, piercing sound rang out, it was clear that these demonic beasts would not reappear, forcing the crowd to once again focus their attention on the two individuals. They secretly wondered, just who were these two?

There has never been a precedent in the Monster Garden where monsters that frighten people are dealt with on the spot and sent to another world.

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Zhang Chaoqiang immediately corrected Zhang Huolong's earlier statement:

"Dad, actually, the origin of monsters is much earlier than that of us humans!"

In fact, we can also call it a type of beast.

"The nature of demonic beasts is cunning. Even if we're learning something, it's something we learn from them, because the word 'cunning' is used to describe demonic beasts—didn't you notice it has the 'dog' radical in it?"

Are humans evolved from monsters?

"This young man really has his own unique understanding," someone nearby nodded in agreement.

Chapter 177 The Hypothesis of the Highest Bloodline Level

For a long time, most people have believed that...

In fact, humans evolved from animals.

However, the appearance of monsters is much older than that of prehistoric giants and other animals.

Therefore, from ancient times to the present, there are only two theories about the emergence of humankind.

The first is the theory of spiritual energy cultivation, and the second is the theory of biological evolution.

The latter explanation is the one that best aligns with scientific theory and evolutionary norms.

According to statistics, the earliest appearance of monsters probably dates back tens of millions of years.

The entire process of Earth's existence and operation has taken hundreds of millions of years.

Even the emergence of monsters has only occupied one-tenth of Earth's time.

However, compared to humans, who have only existed for a few thousand years, monsters are indeed living fossils.

Biological evolution is based on the mating of different species and the historical updates and iterations. Among them, the earliest species must have participated in the process of evolution and transformation of subsequent species.

Experts already have noteworthy evidence on this point, however…

Humans are capable of standing up to all the monsters in the world and even carving out their own territory on Earth.

Strength and status. Humans, especially martial artists, stand on a level equal to or even higher than that of demonic beasts.

Very few people are willing to agree with this view.

In other words, this is to boost the morale of demonic beasts and diminish the prestige of humans.

This is what angered the warriors who considered the monsters on the other side of the world a thorn in their side.

However, coming from Zhang Chaoqiang, perhaps due to the power of his words, it did indeed pique the interest of others.

People peered over, and while Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei were still wondering whether the staff had really dealt with those ferocious monsters, Zhang Chaoqiang quickly pulled his parents away.

He didn't forget to stop making that controversial statement he had just made.

"I said super strong, are humans really evolved from demonic beasts? Doesn't that prove that demonic beasts are the ancestors of humans?"

The mere thought that those cunning creatures from earlier might be their ancestors made Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei feel like they were about to spit out blood.

Could this monstrous creature with its gaping fangs possibly be the ancestor of myself or all of humanity?

Just imagine it, it's enough to drive you crazy.

Zhang Chaoqiang knew that such remarks would attract attention to some extent, but if he really wanted to satisfy Shen Qiangwei and Zhang Huolong's curiosity, he could only lower his voice.

"Mom and Dad, just treat this as a story..."

As they walked, Zhang Chaoqiang began to explain things that his parents probably couldn't understand at all, leaving them completely confused.

These may be real historical facts that are not taught in schools.

Last night, while Huang Feng and Bai Lu were chatting in the historic Bureau of Beast Investigation, they seemed to genuinely consider Zhang Chaoqiang one of their own.

Therefore, in front of Zhang Chaoqiang and Tan Yue, they began discussing the discoveries made by their Central Bureau of Exotic Beast Investigation over the past thousand years.

The Bureau of Exotic Beast Investigation is inextricably linked to monsters.

Because strange beasts were originally special kinds of monsters, they were originally classified as monsters in a certain sense.

As we all know, the bloodline levels of monsters are divided into four categories: common, rare, ancient, and divine beast!

And exotic beasts, naturally, fall into the category of divine beasts.

According to the research conducted by the Bureau of Investigation and the Central Kingdom over the past thousand years, and based on the descriptions of bloodline levels, the older a monster has been, the higher its bloodline level.

Like strange beasts roaming between heaven and earth, most of them have lived on Earth for tens of millions of years.

Compared to the mere few thousand years since the birth of humankind, one is like a vast ocean, while the other is like a tiny, insignificant drop of water.

It seems that bloodline transformation and evolution are not practical for demonic beasts, because according to the survey, some demonic beasts have their bloodline level already fixed from birth.

The saying goes, "Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?" The bloodlines of demonic beasts have an absolute hierarchy and bloodline inheritance.

They really have guts!

To this day, humanity has been unable to investigate why the most ancient monsters discovered from the geological ruins already possessed such powerful bloodlines.

However, their own power may not be strong. Starting from the derivation of their offspring, what changes these strange beasts through evolution is not their bloodline level, but their affinity with spiritual energy.

Therefore, this situation, along with the research findings, suggests that the so-called monsters in this world are very likely to be outsiders…

Their bloodlines were strictly divided from the beginning, with no so-called life evolution and growth. It seems that there was only evolution caused by adapting to the spiritual energy of the earth and producing offspring.

They became increasingly adapted to the spiritual energy on Earth, and their affinity for it grew stronger, indicating that they were becoming more integrated with the Earth's environment.

Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes; hybridization of different mythical beast species will only result in downward compatibility, not in rising with the wind.

It's like a rare-blooded demon beast maturing with another ordinary demon beast...

The resulting hybrids, due to the dilution of rare bloodlines and monster genes, will only produce ordinary monster offspring.

The increasing occurrence of this mating phenomenon, dating back approximately ten million years, suggests that a large-scale mating of monsters took place on Earth.

It's like a large, special party.

However, the mythical beasts were not among them.

As mythical beasts with bloodlines at the level of divine beasts, their bloodlines are incredibly powerful, giving them an aura of dominance over the world.

Whether it's a clash of bloodlines of the same level or downward compatibility, there's absolutely no way for the alien beasts to produce offspring.

Over time, since they lived long enough, the beasts ruthlessly abandoned the reproductive desire that was essential for monsters as they passed through the ages.

Zhang Chaoqiang also recalled Bai Lu's complaint from yesterday: "When our seniors in the Investigation Bureau first discovered the strange beast, they were astonished..."

Faced with a strange beast that had probably lived for millions or even tens of millions of years, he was so scared that he wet himself on the spot.

However, he later accidentally discovered that a casual punch had killed his opponent, leaving him dumbfounded. He hadn't expected that the renowned beast was only at the first or second level of cultivation…

After years of investigation, it was finally discovered that the reason why those strange beasts were able to survive was because they were the highest-level demon beasts in terms of bloodline.

Regardless of their strength, all mythical beasts possess two unique characteristics that cannot be replaced by other bloodline-level monsters.

First, it possesses mechanical abilities.

Secondly, the bloodline of divine beasts possesses the ability to lead.

The so-called leadership ability means being superior to those demonic beasts. No matter how strong they are, as long as they appear in front of the demonic beasts, all the beasts will grovel before them.

Due to the suppression of bloodline and the ability to command, most exotic beasts will have their own army of monsters.

However, this situation only occurs in the territory of monsters.

Those who were previously in human territory were naturally lone beings, so they did not have any so-called demon beast subordinates.

Therefore, the fact that monsters in human territory are weak and outnumbered is a situation that the Investigation Bureau is most pleased to see.

"Uh, Super Strong, aren't you going off-topic? We want to hear about the relationship between humans and monsters..."

Zhang Chaoqiang was speaking in a low voice when he was interrupted by Shen Qiangwei, who had been listening attentively.

Zhang Chaoqiang finally realized that his interruption had gone a bit astray.

Then he succinctly presented the Bureau of Investigation's latest theory.

"Monsters are divided into four bloodline levels: common, rare, ancient, and divine beasts. However, according to the latest research from the Investigation Bureau, there may be a fifth level above divine beasts!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Huolong was no longer sleepy. The ranking system was just like the tier system in his favorite team-based competitive game, with a rigorous ranking system.

What is the fifth level?

At this moment, Old Chen also came in. He was also curious about the Bureau of Investigation's discovery, since such theoretical discoveries that could overturn textbooks would not be made public too early.

Even he had never heard of it.

He managed to get rid of Manager Liu and then surrounded Zhang Huolong.

"The fifth level of demonic beast bloodline, which is the fifth level above divine beasts, is human."

"?..."

Humanity?

What the hell?

Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei craned their necks, looking completely bewildered.

Only Old Chen seemed to be pondering the matter, without much fluctuation. He looked up at the sky and finally nodded slightly: "Is that the case?"

Upon closer examination, this possibility and logic do exist. What evidence is there at present?

Zhang Chaoqiang then told them about the discovery that Bai Lu had mentioned to them the day before.

Tracing back to the evolution of humankind, the previous path of degeneration is roughly: human, ape-man, ape...
