"Of course." Dr. Jones showed a rare smile, and his face became much kinder. "You seem to know nothing about our Western superpowers."
Ma Long tapped Mother Shen's forehead with his finger to wake up Mother Shen, and then called in Shen Bingbing and Yaoyao.
Shen Bingbing came in and saw that her mother had recovered, and she was happy and kissed Ma Long on the face.
"Great, great! Mom's illness is finally cured!" Shen Bingbing cried with joy.
Ma Long was also very happy to be able to help the mother and daughter. Moreover, the kiss just made Ma Long's heart flutter. After thinking about it carefully, he said: "I want to talk to Dr. Jones. You two, mother and daughter, also have a lot to talk about." Let’s talk, let’s separate first.”
With that said, Ma Long took Yaoyao out of the ward and followed Dr. Jones to an empty reception room. Yaoyao sat on the sofa bored and listened to Malone talking to Jones.
"What exactly are superpowers?" Ma Long asked eagerly, "Is it the same as what you see on TV? You all have special powers?"
After Dr. Jones pondered for a while, he nodded slowly: "Basically, it's the same as what's on TV. Hollywood uses this as a selling point. But there are some differences between people with superpowers in reality and those on TV. Not every person with superpowers has There are many types of being able to fight. To put it simply, it is related to the energy in the body of the superhuman."
"Energy?" Malone recalled what Jones said about how the energy in her body accidentally supported her in destroying all the cancer cells. "I remember you said you were an imbecile?"
Jones nodded and showed another weak smile, seeming to be happy that Malone still remembered what she said: "You have to understand that imbeciles cannot fight, because we have too little energy and don't pay attention to supporting a long-term battle. The battle of time. All superpowers are divided into strong and weak ones by the amount of energy. I think the same is true for you Eastern cultivators, right?"
"Practitioners? Do you in the West call us this?"
Jones nodded again: "Yes, those of us in the West are called superpowers, and those of you in the East are called cultivators, but they basically lead to the same goal through different paths. Just like Chinese medicine and Western medicine, we have a more detailed system , but Chinese medicine does not. In the same way, we superpowers also have detailed statistics on each ability, but you Eastern practitioners don’t seem to have them, and there are countless ways to practice.”
"Because we are in the Great Thousand Worlds here." At this time, Yaoyao interrupted, "There are three thousand avenues, each of which is different, but if you practice to the realm of the great avenue, there will be no difference."
Jones shook his head: "I still don't understand you Eastern cultivators very well, and no one in the West has studied you clearly. I just think you are mysterious and scary."
Malone smiled: "We love peace very much. By the way, can you tell me about the classification of your superpowers? You said you have a more detailed system?"
"Yes. We superpowers are divided into two categories. One type is called elemental superpowers, which can control various elements in the world, such as wind, fire, water, electricity, etc." As he spoke, Jones lit up. He touched the "Leng Huo" on his fingertips and said, "My 'Leng Huo' is a type of fire element. Each element has many types derived from it. I don't know how many specific types there are."
"What about the other superpower?" Ma Long asked curiously.
"The other one is called a non-elemental superpower..."
Yaoyao suddenly chuckled: "You guys are really lazy."
Ma Long also held back his laughter and thought to himself, do you call this a systematic classification? It's just a generalization. To put it this way, the practitioners in the East can also be divided into different schools.
"It's not laziness." Doctor Jones explained seriously, "The standard for classifying superpowers is whether they can control elements. People with superpowers who cannot control elements are of course called non-elemental superpowers." Jones
I don’t think there’s anything funny about this question, and there’s nothing wrong with calling it this way.
Ma Long was afraid that his rudeness would make the other party unhappy, so he quickly asked: "What do non-elemental powers do?"
"They actually have another name, they are called physical superpowers. Most of them rely on their innately excellent bodies and are beyond the scope of normal people." Jones gave an example, "For example, the Hulk, Electric Eye, and King Kong in the movie
Wolves, they are all superpowers, and they use their ordinary bodies to reach the limit of abilities beyond human beings."
Ma Long nodded: "So that's it. It seems to be similar to the one in the movie. Do all of you superpowers only have one ability?"
"It is said that there are people who have both abilities at the same time, but I have never seen them. All I have seen are imbeciles, and there are no powerful people."
"Then how many superpowers do you have in the West?" Ma Long asked again.
"Probably one in ten thousand."
Ma Long was surprised: "So many!" He did a little calculation in his mind. The United States has a population of about 200 million. According to the birth rate of one in 10,000 superpowers, there are about 20,000 superpowers in the United States. No wonder the United States can dominate.
The whole world is a mutant!
"Have you forgotten? We superpowers are divided into low-power people and high-power people. Most of them are low-power people and have no ability to fight." Jones reminded.
"Oh, right." Ma Long slapped his forehead and forgot about this. He had just learned that there were 20,000 superpowers, which really shocked him, but even an imbecile like Jones was already a
It's a very scary existence.
Jones continued: "We imbeciles are like ordinary people, living a normal life, living in the community, and using our powers to serve the country and the people. For example, my powers can kill pathogens in the human body, so
I came to work in the hospital, and I have worked here for fifty years."
"Then what do the high-powered people here do?" Ma Long suddenly felt that he was also gossiping. He couldn't help it, this topic attracted him too much.
Jones pondered for a moment and said: "They all serve the big financial groups and families, are hired as guests by these rich people, and participate in the economy and politics. In fact, it is the same in the East. A large number of practitioners have joined the world and participated in the country and the world.
A game between countries. Whoever has more aliens will have more weight to speak. Although your Eastern cultivators are very powerful, most of them are miscellaneous and not specialized. Instead, we have aliens who specialize in one ability.
The one who can take the lead will take the lead."
Malone sighed: It seems that the world is different from what he originally imagined. The conversation he just had with Dr. Jones seems to have opened another colorful door for Malone, and behind the door, there are both dangers and opportunities.
