"What emotion? Is it fear?!"
Little Mo Ling asked subconsciously, with even more confusion in her big eyes.
She glanced at the horrified corpse next to her and thought of this without thinking.
"That's right."
The researcher nodded mechanically, and a red-white fluid flowed from the bullet hole in the center of his forehead, dripping onto his body.
Frowning her brows, Mo Ling couldn't help but retort:
"Isn't it right? Why can't fear appear in humans?"
"Most animals have fear. This is the most primitive "expression" of life resisting death, or genes avoiding genetic interruption."
"Human beings don't have problems, right?"
"You said arrogance is just about right. This kind of complex and advanced emotion has no meaning for the reproduction of life."
"crunch"
The researcher suddenly turned his head stiffly and looked blankly at Mo Ling who was rebutting him.
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"No, it's not the fear of death."
"It's humans who fear humans."
"In other words, we will be extremely afraid of human beings who look like humans."
"This fearful emotion is almost engraved in our instinctive genes, so much so that it forms a brand."
"This kind of emotion only appears in humans. It is obviously unreasonable and does not conform to the logic of biological evolution."
"What's the meaning!?"
After blurting out the words, Lin An suddenly felt a strong uneasiness. If his spiritual power had not been interrupted, he could clearly feel that the other party was under his control.
He even felt that the resurrected researcher had lost control.
In an instant, the Second Will suddenly spoke in a deep voice, his tone full of solemnity and surprise:
("What did he want to say!?")
(“Uncanny Valley Effect!?”)
As if he could hear the words in his mind, the revived researcher turned his neck again and looked at Lin An as if he had received instructions:
"That's right."
"In the uncanny valley effect, we will not be afraid of cartoons and semi-anthropomorphic existences in animation, but will find them cute."
"But I am afraid of beings whose appearance resembles that of humans to a certain extent."
"Like incredibly realistic puppets, spiders, snakes or other creatures with human faces."
"As long as the similarity of existence exceeds a critical point, we will feel fear."
Blinking her eyes, Mo Ling could no longer understand what the researcher wanted to say. She subconsciously looked at Lin An, only to find that Lin An's face was getting more and more ugly.
Before she could speak, Lin An stared at her:
"Keep talking!"
Following the order, the dead researcher continued to speak numbly:
"Based on the above theory, in our subsequent research, we boldly guessed a terrible truth."
"Why are we afraid? Why are we afraid of beings who look very much like us? Why can we easily recognize that they are not human?"
"There is only one answer."
"People who look like us will behave inhumanely toward us after encountering humans."
"Simply put."
"In human civilization, for a long time, we were "killed" by people who had the same appearance as us but were not human beings!"
"This kind of "killing" method must be extremely cruel, so cruel that we can easily tell that the other person is not a human being."
""They" have faces that are almost the same as ours, but they are our enemies, so much so that we are so afraid that this fear is deeply engraved in our genes."
"Under the uncanny valley effect, we have created a large number of film and television culture, novels, records, and stone sculptures based on this fear."
"Although we have forgotten who "they" are, we instinctively want to describe the existence of "them""
After that, everything was quiet in the laboratory.
Taking a deep breath, Lin An took a deep look at the researcher.
He understood what exactly this regional world had discovered.
they found out
Zombies have long appeared in human history.
And, not just once.
But here, there is obviously no doomsday game.
