Captain America then spoke up, bringing everyone back to the main topic.

"Is a person who is the offspring of a god or a human being? That's an interesting question," Bruce Wayne said with a shrug, clearly intrigued.

“Of course not human, nor god,” Tony Stark immediately interjected. “He’s half-human, half-god! Isn’t that how many myths have been passed down?”

In Western mythology, many gods are the product of the union of gods and humans. Although these gods are gods, they are not pure gods because they have human blood flowing through their veins.

Strictly speaking, he is half-human and half-god.

Putting everything else aside, let's just talk about Zeus. He disguised himself as a mortal multiple times and had affairs with mortal women, leaving behind many descendants on Earth.

“Mythological stories… those are all fictional and not reliable for reference,” Captain America said from the side. “I think Thor is probably more qualified to speak on this matter.”

Thor is a living, legendary god!

“Well.” Thor tilted his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head. “No one in Asgard has ever mated with a human, so I’m not too sure about this either.”

"Are you sure you're looking in the wrong direction? Clark, this Kryptonian, is right here. Can't we just ask him?" Diana said, looking speechless. Then she looked directly at Clark Kent and asked, "Clark, have you Kryptonians ever intermarried with humans?"

Clark Kent also shook his head: "I grew up on Earth, so I don't know much about Krypton. I don't know if other Kryptonians have intermarried with Earthlings."

“However, I think Arthur Curry is a good example to consider,” Bruce Wayne said, giving a vivid example. “Arthur Curry is the product of the union of Atlanteans and humans, so he is a half-human, half-Atlantean hybrid who possesses the abilities of both humans and Atlanteans.”

“Actually, there is such an example in our world as well.” Tony Stark also remembered something. “He is a true descendant of gods and men, and he is indeed a god, although he is a god whose divine body is comparable to that of a mortal.”

Even without naming names, everyone knows who Tony Stark is referring to here.

Of course, it's Star-Lord, who's even more of a goofball than Barry Allen.

"Therefore, whether from cultural legends or similar cases, when a 'humanoid race' and a human combine, they will produce 'new humans' who inherit the abilities of both sides!"

"This is really strange. Reproductive isolation has completely disappeared. However, we cannot ignore the living examples right in front of us."

Tony Stark continued his eloquent explanation and offered some basic analysis.

"Therefore, I think option B can be ruled out!"

Clark Kent made this judgment: "How could neither of my sons have inherited my power? From the perspective of earth science, it is impossible for my genes not to be passed down at all."

“That’s right.” Bruce Wayne nodded. “We have now confirmed that Clark and Louis Lane broke the reproductive barrier and had offspring, so those two offspring should have inherited the genes of both Clark and Louis.”

“But having genes and having corresponding superpowers are two different things, because genes are divided into dominant genes and negative genes,” Tony Stark added. “Only dominant genes will be expressed…”

"Everyone, everyone, this isn't a scientific seminar!" Captain America quickly interrupted as the topic began to veer towards genetics.

"Genes and heredity are too complex. We don't need to understand the underlying principles. We just need to know that children inherit traits from both their father and mother!"

"And through real-life examples, we also know that even when a 'humanoid race' interbreeds with a human, they will inherit the characteristics of both parents, and that's enough!"

One point worth noting here is that we are not discussing the inheritance of a specific attribute, such as "tall" or "double eyelids".

Therefore, it cannot be analyzed and judged simply from a probability perspective.

If it is a single attribute, the probability of it being inherited by one of the sons is one in half, and the probability of both sons inheriting it at the same time or neither inheriting it at the same time is one in four.

But what everyone is discussing is inheriting Superman's "superpowers".

This is an incredibly broad concept, encompassing a vast array of attributes, such as heat rays, flight, super hearing, super strength, and so on...

This is a collection of many individual attributes, making the situation much more complex.

If we only consider the probability that one of Superman's sons will inherit his superpowers, most people think it's greater than 50%, since none of the attributes are inherited, making the possibility indeed very small.

"No, Rogers, I think it would be better to analyze this more deeply, because Superman and Lois's situations are slightly different."

Bruce Wayne then spoke up and explained the above theory to everyone present, which was unanimously accepted by everyone.

"If we look at it from this perspective, wouldn't the answer be A?" Thor shrugged, glanced at everyone, and asked.

"That's right. In terms of probability, option A is the most likely, option B is the least likely, and options C and D are in between A and B. Moreover, the probabilities of these two options are the same."

Tony Stark nodded and ranked the probabilities of the various options.

There is no doubt about this either.

Looking at the question again, besides stating that Superman and Lois had two sons, it doesn't provide any other details.

In other words, apart from analyzing and eliminating possibilities based on this probability, there is no other basis for making a choice regarding this question.

So Thor is right. Although there's no way to be certain, the answer to this question can only be considered to be A.

The next question was who would answer it, and the participants who hadn't yet answered started a discussion.

"Stark, Rogers, you two answer this question. Although this satellite gun is quite intriguing, it is still a gun, isn't it?"

"Guns are completely useless against me!" Thor immediately shrugged, giving up the chance to answer.

Tony Stark and Captain America then began to consider it.

The two men were in similar situations. Under normal circumstances, they didn't have much use for guns, but at the same time, they were both somewhat interested in this satellite gun.

Because they had never known that such guns existed in the world.

It's like Peter Parker's football belt, a forced combination of two completely unrelated things.

Could this satellite gun be the kind of gun with offensive weapons mounted on a satellite?

Or perhaps some satellite-related modules were installed on the gun?

The two could only think of these two possibilities, but they couldn't guess which one it was.

“Rogers, why don’t I answer this question? I’m actually quite interested in this Apollo.” After a brief exchange, Tony Stark made his decision.

It was purely out of academic interest.

Since Tony Stark had already made the decision, Captain America naturally didn't object and agreed on the spot.

The spot for this question fell to Tony Stark.

"I choose A! Both sons have superpowers!" Tony Stark didn't waste any words and immediately gave his answer to the big screen.

[Incorrect answer!]

But then the system emitted this notification sound.

[The respondent, Tony Stark, will be punished by having one year of his lifespan removed. This is to be carried out immediately!]

Chapter 445 Thrilling, Superman's Son in Death Crisis

Swish!

Tony Stark lost a year of his life just like that.

However, Tony Stark didn't take it to heart, and simply shrugged slightly: "Well, it seems my luck isn't too good."

Although option A has the highest probability, everyone knows that probability only indicates a tendency, nothing more.

Unless the probability is extremely high, it's not surprising if the opposite result occurs.

"If the answer isn't A, then we can only choose between C and D, right?"

Thor couldn't help but laugh out loud. "This is interesting! The probabilities of these two options are exactly the same!"

How do you choose between options with exactly the same probability?

Isn't this just pure guesswork?

"Rogers, Stark's luck is bad, now it's up to you to see if your luck changes," Thor then said to Captain America with a smile.

Both Tony Stark and Captain America showed interest in the sun god R, though not a great deal, but Thor showed absolutely no interest.

Next, it was Captain America's turn to answer.

Captain America fell into deep thought: which son should he choose, the eldest or the second?

The only difference between them is that one is a little older and the other is a little younger, that's all.

Apart from that, the two are exactly the same.

There is absolutely no distinguishing feature.

There is absolutely no basis for allowing any one of them to "win" this question.

The others present also discussed the matter and reached the same conclusion.

This is a question we can only gamble on.

"In that case, let's leave it entirely to fate."

Captain America then spoke up, pulling out a coin. "Tits up, choose the eldest son who has superpowers; tails up, choose the second son who has superpowers."

Biu!

As soon as he finished speaking, Captain America tossed the coin in his hand, caught it again, and covered it with his palm.

When Captain America removed his hand, the coin's face was facing up.

"Flower, I choose the second son who has superpowers!"

Without hesitation, Captain America immediately gave his answer to the big screen.

[Correct answer!]

The system then emitted this notification tone.

This surprised Captain America somewhat; he hadn't expected that his guess would actually be correct.

"Looks like Rogers' luck is pretty good," Thor couldn't help but chuckle.

[Congratulations to Steve Rogers for winning the satellite gun Helios-R!]

With this system notification, Captain America suddenly produced an oversized, exaggeratedly designed, and dazzling gun.

The reason that gun was so dazzling was because it was entirely made of gold.

"Is this gun made of pure gold?"

Bruce Wayne couldn't help but complain a bit.

From all performance perspectives, gold is not the best choice for making weapons.

The only reason Bruce Wayne could think of for using gold-plated firearms was to show off.

That's it.
