The self-healing abilities that Viktor and James boasted were unparalleled. Not only could their skin, muscles, and bones be perfectly "regenerated" after being "destroyed", but they would also be strengthened without leaving any wounds. Also, their self-healing abilities worked on all the tissues and organs in their body.
Including the heart and brain!
The heart was the driving force of the human body's blood circulation. When the heart was damaged and stopped beating, losing the ability to pump blood, the blood in the human body would also stop flowing. All the cells in the body would also lose the energy and oxygen provided by the fresh blood, and would soon die.
Among them, the brain's need for oxygen was the greatest. When the heart stopped beating, the brain cells would die the fastest.
When the heart stopped beating for 10-20 seconds, there would be confusion, fainting, convulsions, and coma. Around 60 seconds, brain cells would start to die. When the heart stopped beating for six minutes, all the brain cells would die. Within ten minutes, the muscles, organs, and other organs and cells in the body would gradually die, and the entire body would lose its vitality completely.
Since Viktor and James' self-healing abilities had only been awakened for a short time and had not reached their strongest state, the cells in their body were repairing at a slower speed. It would take more than ten minutes for the injuries to be completely healed. It was impossible to repair the damaged heart and restore the energy and oxygen supply of the fresh blood before the cells in the body completely died. Therefore, before the heart was completely repaired, the person would have died, and the repair would be interrupted, and they would not be able to come back to life.
However, if the self-healing abilities of the two were strengthened and repaired fast enough, they would be able to fully recover before the cells died. Even if the heart was completely destroyed or even dug out, the self-healing ability would be able to regenerate a new heart before the brain died, and maintain the energy and oxygen supply of the cells in the body, so that they would not die.
If the recovery speed was fast enough, and could be completed in a few seconds, the brain would not even feel dizzy due to lack of oxygen, and would not even faint.
However, if the brain was directly damaged, it would be a different story.
An ordinary person would definitely die if their brain was damaged, but all the cells in Viktor and James' body had self-healing abilities, including the brain cells. Therefore, their brains could still be automatically repaired after being damaged.
However, the heartbeat was controlled by the brain cells. If the brain was damaged, the heart would stop beating instantly. With the two's current self-healing abilities, they would not be able to complete the repair before the cells in the body died.
Therefore, the brain and heart were still vital to Viktor and James. If they were damaged, they would still die.
In addition, if the brain was damaged or repaired after the brain cells died, although the brain could be restored to its original state, the memory could not be recovered.
In the movie, Wolverine was shot in the brain by an adamantium alloy bullet. Although he didn't really die because of his powerful self-healing ability, he was resurrected after his brain was repaired, but all his previous memories were gone.
Even so, with such powerful self-healing abilities, the two of them could be considered immortal.
Moreover, according to Chen Mo's observation of the two's body during this time, as well as his understanding of his own body, he found that people with special abilities like them, when their physical fitness was strong enough, their body cells' ability to withstand hunger and lack of oxygen would also increase. After the heart stopped beating, they could live longer than ordinary people, which gave the body enough time to repair itself. Even if the body was destroyed, heart stopped beating, breathing stopped, and looked completely dead, the body cells would still survive and continue to repair the body, and they could still be revived.
In other words, as Viktor and James' self-healing abilities and physical fitness improved, their body's repair speed would become faster and faster, and their cells could survive longer after the heart stopped beating. By then, it would become more and more difficult to kill them. If the two's abilities continued to improve without limit, they could even reach a legendary extreme state.
If the self-healing ability was strong enough, and the body cells were strong enough, even if there was only one cell left, it could still be repaired, reborn, and revived again!
Of course, this was only a possibility of an extreme state, and it was actually very difficult to reach.
These were all things for the future. For now, Viktor and James were not the two ferocious beasts that were almost immortal in the future, the real saber-toothed tiger and Wolverine. They were just two cubs with a certain degree of self-healing ability, but they would still die if their heart and brain were attacked. Their abilities still had a lot of room for improvement.
Chen Mo had long discovered that with the self-healing ability that far exceeded that of ordinary people, the physical fitness of Viktor and James had improved far more than ordinary people through the process of "destruction, regeneration, and strengthening" through constant fighting. They did not need to control the limit of "destruction" like ordinary people when practicing martial arts or exercising to avoid injury and permanent damage to the body.
As long as the heart and brain were not damaged, the more serious the injury they suffered in the battle, the greater the improvement of their physical fitness. Moreover, the self-healing ability of the two was constantly improving as their physical fitness improved. The self-healing ability and physical fitness formed a perfect relationship that promoted each other and improved together. As long as the two continued to fight, keep getting injured, and self-healing, their physical fitness and self-healing ability would continue to improve.
And this just so happened to be in line with their belligerent wildness. It could be seen that they had the instinct to constantly become stronger through fighting. In the movie, after the two left Howlett Manor, they participated in the American Civil War, World War I, World War II, and the Vietnam War. It could be seen that their belligerent nature ran through their entire lives, pushing them to participate in battles and improve themselves.
In fact, after so many years of fighting, the two did indeed have very strong strength and self-healing ability. Even if they were continuously shot by rifles, they would not die. Their wounds could quickly heal in a few seconds. Even if their hearts were pierced, they could still continue to fight. Even if their brains were turned into mush by bullets, they could still be revived.
What Chen Mo wanted to do now was to bring forward this kind of strengthening and consciously provide more opportunities for them to fight. While they honed their fighting skills in battle, they would continue to strengthen their physical fitness and self-healing ability.
