Chapter 1423 Unable to Stop

The phenomenon of overthrowing pet orcs is not as significant as imagined. Bredlow originally thought that more than 80% to 90% of pets would not be spared, but according to statistics, only about 20% were spared.

As the number of human pets continues to grow, this ratio has not increased significantly. It seems to be gradually stabilizing, indicating that 80% of pet owners can effectively control their pets.

With the benefit of hindsight, Bredlow believes that this may be caused by religious influence, cultural differences and pet status.

The proportion of white Christians in the country of Hope is around 50%, and the proportion of religious believers is around 73%. The teachings of mainstream religions treat blaspheming animals as a sin. Believers have God in mind, even if the temptation is great, they still Fear of going to hell after death.

In terms of cultural differences, although the waistbands of young men and women in Hope Country are loose, this also means that teenagers can mess with each other to solve their needs, and they do not necessarily have to attack the orcs. If it were the Japanese country, I'm afraid the orcs would suffer, because there are really too many otakus who like the cuteness of the second dimension.

In terms of the status of pets, pets in the Kingdom of Hope are often raised as a family unit, and pets are regarded as family members. Even if there is a father who is dissatisfied with desires or a son who is full of passion and wants to have a taste of his own pets, he still has to worry about his mother and sisters. feelings. Orcs transformed from family pets are often treated as adopted children. Although they do not obtain legal human rights, they are already treated as human beings according to traditional family rules.

Many families even asked the education department whether they could enroll their orcs, because they found that their orcs were sensible, considerate, smart, and hard-working, and were much better than their own rebellious street boys. They wished they could enroll their orcs. The street boy threw away his pet orcs and raised them as his own sons and daughters. He provided the pet children with a good education and sent them to college.

Such statistics appear under the multi-faceted influence of religion, culture and family traditions and morals. Bredlow is not satisfied with this, but he can only choose to accept it and does not intend to further fan the flames and encourage crossbreeding.

Compared with pet orcs, the fate of livestock orcs is much more tragic. Many ranchers regard the appearance of groups of orcs on their farms as cash cows and sell them to unscrupulous people at high prices, making a lot of unscrupulous money.

These livestock were originally going to be sent to the slaughterhouse to be made into meat products for sale. After turning into humans, the slaughterhouse refused to accept them because the slaughter workers really could not overcome the psychological pressure of slaughtering orcs. After all, cattle, sheep, and pigs did not behave like orcs when they were killed. He uttered human words and shouted: "Help, spare me, I don't want to die."

Even if beasts orcs do not have human rights legally, and it is not illegal to kill them, the slaughter workers feel the same when killing them as they do when killing them. No one except lunatics and murderers would like this kind of work, even if animal protection organizations do not protest. The union will also protest against the poor working conditions of slaughterhouse workers, which will cause psychological harm to the slaughterhouse workers.

Once a slaughter worker is diagnosed with mental illness due to the slaughter of human livestock, the factory owner will have to pay a large sum of money. Not many employers can afford such a risk.

No slaughterhouse is willing to kill humanized livestock, but ranchers can waste feed to raise them, so they cannot just let them go. In this case, all the previous breeding costs will be lost, and they can only be sold like slaves. On the one hand, these orcs have recovered their losses, and on the other hand, they don’t have to worry about animal protection organizations coming to make trouble.

The fate of these livestock orcs was much more tragic. Even if they were not sent to the slaughterhouse, they still had to be sold as meat. Some of the good-looking ones were sent to pimps, and the other strong ones went to black factories and A very small number of the black mines were sent to private slaughtering workshops, where they were slaughtered and eaten by diners who wanted to try something new.

The ones with the best treatment are the cute orcs. They quickly integrated into human society, replaced their original status as pets, and became the new favorites of mankind. They led a craze of bringing cute orcs with them when going out, and many rich people paid high prices. Looking to buy a cute orc and treat it as a show-off item like a "luxury watch" or a "luxury car".

Since the explosive emergence of lycanthropes, there has never been a case of lycanthropes hurting people. Animals are originally afraid of humans, and after gaining wisdom, they quickly understood their own situation. This batch of lycanthropes were mainly family pets. and pasture livestock, which have been raised by humans for tens of thousands of years. These animals’ fear of human relatives is almost engraved in their genes, and they have almost resignedly endured all harm done to them.

Since lycanthropic animals are not harmful to humans, human society has gradually begun to accept these lycanthropes. The boiling public opinion has subsided and the popularity has slowly declined. TV news no longer plays it up as a "crisis", but there are many more Interesting reports and programs.

For example, there is a lonely old lady who has a fetish habit. After the incident of human transformation, she suddenly got more than a dozen grandchildren. Under the careful care of the cat ladies and young ladies, she lived a peaceful and happy old age. The originally messy and dirty room was also destroyed. Clean and tidy.

Another example is that a certain agent hired beautiful cat-human and dog-human girls to form a singing and performing arts team, which became an instant hit on various programs. TV stations also began to plan TV series starring orcs, and many catering companies launched cat maids with dog ears. Girly themed restaurant and cafe...

The superheroes of the Justice League did not react much to this incident, because the humanoid animals did not pose a threat, and they could not take the pets away from their owners on the grounds that these orcs might pose a threat. They could only choose to wait and see carefully. , and also stepped up the investigation into the cause of the incident.

What exactly causes the phenomenon of animals turning into humans?

Although no harm was caused, this question has been hanging in the minds of the people of Hope Country. From the president and superheroes to ordinary people, they all want an answer.

As the number of lycanthropes continued to grow, investigators gradually discovered patterns. The first thing exposed was the dog food of Big Love Pet Company. People finally noticed that anyone who ate a certain batch of Big Love Pet Company cat food Dog Food's pets have all undergone human transformations.

After obtaining the ration samples and comparing them with the blood pressure analysis results of the dissected orcs, the scientists finally extracted the special ingredients of the humanization potion.

However, the Krona mutation potion is an alien technology, and the humanization potion transformed based on it also contains many alien black technology components. With the capabilities of the scientific research team under the government of Hope, it is unable to analyze the molecular formula of the potion and can only convert it into It is named: "Unknown Factor X".

After discovering the existence of the unknown factor

The Big Pet Company hired top lawyers and formed a super team of lawyers at all costs to start a litigation tug-of-war with the government. They decided to fight a litigation war that was bound to lose but could drag on for a long time.

At the same time, gossip also spread, and many third-rate tabloids rushed to report the news that "loving pet cat and dog food has led to pets turning into humans". The result immediately triggered a frantic buying spree. Those who have pets have been slow to Owners who couldn't wait for their pets to become humans rushed into supermarkets and shopping malls and swept away all the pet food on the shelves.

Even the warehouse where Big Love Pet Company stores pet food was robbed by an armed robbery. More than a dozen groups of unidentified thugs robbed all the inventory. Soon, Big Love Pet cat and dog food with prices doubled dozens of times appeared on the black market. , the profit from selling cat and dog food is almost more than that from selling banned drugs. It is definitely a good deal for the major gangs!

The inventory of Big Love Pet Company was completely cleared, and the lawsuit was lost. The person in charge of the company admitted that the X factor was added to this batch of pet food just to improve the intelligence and appearance of pets and thereby increase market competitiveness. However, they did not expect that the X factor was too effective. Qiang can actually transform animals into orcs.

The big pet company that lost the lawsuit declared bankruptcy, the person in charge of the scapegoat was jailed, and all factories stopped production. The government of Hope thought that the phenomenon of animalization could be controlled, but dozens of pharmaceutical companies in India suddenly announced that they had cracked the unknown factor The chemical formula of X can be used to produce generic drugs, which contain high-purity factor
