Chapter 504: Chapter 392: The Sorrow of Evolving Humanity (6th update)

Ada hummed in affirmation, and slowly said, "For ordinary humans, children born of matrimony between those of the same bloodline can easily encounter problems... But for you mutated Black Iron Warriors... Have you ever contemplated that for your evolved race, the so-called special power... is your bloodline. When two humans possessing special powers mate, it is akin to siblings of the same bloodline mating. The offspring, though naturally born with zero-level special power, are just as likely to encounter issues. Moreover, this likelihood would increase with each generation, the situation worsening. Eventually, it would result in the tens of thousands of New Humans you see before you now, unable to evolve."

Su Yu sucked in a sharp breath, shock rending him momentarily frozen. He felt a chill creep over his entire body, his gaze riveted on Ada, unable to utter a single word.

Ada looked at Su Yu with a hint of pity, thought for a moment before speaking, "Don’t worry, at least the likelihood of your children encountering this problem is relatively low... at most, only one in ten. However, with each generation, the probability will increase. After ten generations, almost ninety percent of the offspring will have problems."

Ada continued slowly, "This is a situation that everyone can’t avoid and the greatest tragedy of humankind. In this ruthless world teeming with perils at every turn, how can a zero-level New Human who cannot evolve manage to survive? The major cities in this world were established for this reason. It is the last-ditch effort made by the ancestors of the New Humans to preserve part of their bloodline... Despite they live in these cities, they belong to the lowest stratum of society and are relegated to performing heavy manual labour. Still, they managed to pass on their lineage from generation to generation and live fairly well under the protection of these cities without having to face the terrifying creatures outside. Su Yu, this is unavoidable."

"Of course, while there is a high chance children born to two Black Iron Warriors will have problems, there are also instances where geniuses emerge. Much like how when ordinary humans with the same bloodline mate, there can be a mute child, but there can also be a birth of a genius."

Ada gave a small smile, noting Su Yu’s heavy heart and gently patted him. She delivered some good news that even when two Black Iron Warriors mate, there’s still a possibility of a genius being born.

Su Yu managed a bitter smile. Anyone hearing this news would be weighed down with heavy emotions. Although he had never contemplated marriage or having children, he still felt conflicted and wryly stated, "By that token, Kou Xiaowei’s parents were all Black Iron Warriors, and she is one of the New Humans with problems, so she is unable to evolve."

Ada nodded, "She is but a pitiful child, yet also a strong one."

Su Yu lightly responded, "Ada, isn’t there really any solution to this situation?"

Ada gave a sorrowful shake of her head.

Su Yu looked at her and then back at the structures inside Black Iron City. His heart was significantly heavy. Suddenly, a thought struck him, "You mean to say, the Atlanteans created the Artificial Humans to deal with this situation? Without a doubt, after the Atlanteans entered this world, with each passing generation, the number of New Atlantean Humans unable to evolve would increase. To handle this situation, the Artificial Humans emerged. Is that it? Does this also include us, the humans of this era, constantly falling into this world because of the skyholes? Is it to cope with this situation?"

Ada slightly smiled, "Your theory does hold some merit, but the complexity of the actual situation surpasses imagination. Even I don’t fully understand it. All I really know is that this world was created for evolution. Whatever the species, from the moment of birth, the purpose of life is to evolve towards the endpoint. Only the New Humans... these problematic humans often referred to as sinners abandoned by the gods can’t evolve... Despite being born with special powers, concurrently, they lose the ability to evolve..."

In that instant, Su Yu faintly grasped the reason why "skyholes" and even the apocalypse appeared continuously. But the reason was still somewhat vague. He had a hunch that it seemingly had some related to the majority of New Humans being unable to evolve.

Upon understanding the reason why over tens of thousands of New Humans could not evolve, Su Yu felt considerable sympathy for them. These New Humans relied on "Black Iron City" for survival, but in return, they had to engage in the most strenuous and tough labour work. The fighting individuals in Black Iron City wouldn’t engage in work at all. All the labour and heavy duties were borne by these New Humans. Even after Su Yu became the Black Iron City Lord, he was assigned four female attendants who were all New Humans unable to evolve.

These four attendants were carefully selected and named after the four seasons - "Chunyu," "Xiayu," "Qiuyu," and "Dongyu."
