Chapter 168 Chapter 5.14 The struggle of protozoa. Organic integration
Over the course of more than ten days, ant nests on more than thirty hills were destroyed.
How wicked was Wei Keng's method of harming ants? For environmental protection, each shell of the cluster bomb contains sugar, so each unexploded bomb will be left for ants to deal with.
The ants never thought that other creatures would come to drill their holes!
The tunnel can only be drilled by small animals! And such a small animal, if it runs on four legs, will not weigh more than 40 kilograms. Such a light creature, if it is not a powerful node creature, will be contaminated by the radiation of the biological community in just a few hours.
And Wei Keng is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms. He can withstand radiation for one or two days. Later, he directly relied on the abdominal battery pulley system to run inside, and the speed of coming and going was quite fast.
What was even more unexpected was that after drilling in, he could not only resist radiation, but also decipher the life wave language inside the ant colony.
……
In the most unlikely situation of infiltration, it was like inserting a key into a keyhole, and it went in all at once.
If a little more effort is put in, the nest ant colonies of this era can be turned into livestock systems by humans, just like pigs, cattle and sheep in the old era.
Pigs, horses and dogs are easily domesticated because they have evolved social behaviors. Humans can control a group of them by holding the leader and make them stay in the designated area.
Now this large ant is a truly social creature, and has great potential to become a "bamboo rat".
Therefore, the land and resources statistics department of the Tongfa District has established a project for this: to conduct a comprehensive survey of the population size and nest structure of this type of creature.
And in the survey, there were more amazing ecological discoveries.

After exploring the ant caves on more than 30 hills, Wei Keng found that the life radiation of ants on dozens of hills did not have a dominant gene frequency band of ants.
But the ants with different gene sequences do share a constant life radiation frequency band! However, it seems that it is not from ants.
After careful analysis, it turned out that this life radiation was from flagellates.
According to the core gene analysis, it may not be correct to compare the ant colony here with the Tallinn nest master colony in South America. The main gene of the South American colony is obviously the marching ant, while the various ant genes here in the upper reaches of the Huaihe River are diversified, but the core is the flagellate.
When the earth was still in the species era, termites and flagellates were symbiotic, cooperating to share an ecological niche, and it didn't matter who was dominant or subordinate! But in this Pandora era, who is dominant and who is subordinate is very important!
This is not an era of mutual isolation of species. Whoever occupies a dominant position can control the direction of expansion of genetic radiation!
~
This is just like before the 18th century, global capital was still regional capital, tied to the rise and fall of the local nation.
It doesn't matter who is dominant or subordinate between capitalism and nationalism, but to hold together and go outward.
However, in Europe, after two super wars, the ethnic prejudices between white asset holders in Europe and the United States were broken. Europe and the United States began to expand with capital as the leading force, rather than with ethnicity as the leading force.
As long as you are an asset holder, whether you are an Irish American, an Anglo-Saxon, a German, or even a Jewish, you have the right to increase the group's assets.
In this dominance of international capital (white capital), the expansion concept is: as long as (Western) international capital can benefit, it can get investment.
The focus of such investment must be the coastal areas with cheap labor and convenient transportation. (Of course, the leaders of international capital must still be Westerners, and it is still impossible for you with yellow skin to integrate.)
And what if it is still national priority?
In the ancient times, there was such a failed historical direction: in the conception of the Third Reich, only the Germans could hold assets, and other nations could only become appendages of the empire.
Only areas where Germans gathered would get investment. According to the head of state's idea, the Germans had to survive in the East, so Eastern Europe would definitely be the focus of investment, and East Asia and Southeast Asia, no matter how cheap the labor force was, were low-end areas that could not develop. If it develops and has the possibility of challenging the excellence of the Germans, then it will inevitably lead to war (the timeline of the Man in the High Castle)
~
According to the above concept.
The Tallinn nest owners in South America followed the Third Reich, and the main genotype of their life radiation was the army ant! They spread the genes of the army ants to all ants and established a gene empire with ants as the core.
However, the ant nests on the upper reaches of the Huaihe River are obviously a bit of international capitalism. Although they developed in the termite colony, they also expanded to other ant colonies.
And even though the ant colony is the most powerful animal group in the gene community, are ants all they have?
After Wei Keng submitted his discovery, the Bailinglu team of the Spacetime Administration changed their ideas and re-analyzed the area.
Then
Wow!
In the gene community outside the entire upper reaches of the Huaihe River, among all the species that have been observed, the number of herbivorous species is obviously more than that in other areas, and some carnivorous organisms have shown omnivorous characteristics! That is, they directly devour fibers. Behind this is the infection of flagellates.
After entering the jungle area, the most common diseases suffered by adventurers in Yecheng are indigestion and urinary tract infection, which are the characteristics of flagellate infection.
[Wei Keng's life radiation is too strong, and no such symptoms have appeared yet. ]
~
Of course, the main world needs to verify such situations.
Wei Keng collected a large number of animal and plant specimens at the temporary observation station here, and the conclusions he obtained were consistent with the deductions.
In other words, a small protozoan gene system that relies on organelles actually has the intention to establish a large community in this Pandora field world!
Therefore! The current threat of genetic radiation is far more than the tigers, monkeys, and carnivorous plants that humans can see, and it is more likely to come from the protozoa that were previously disdained! This is indeed Cthulhu for the Qing-level traversers who explored the Pandora plane in the early days.
But now that's it
This highly hidden protozoan gene community, now that it has been found, faces scientific analysis and elimination.
To use Bai Linglu's words: "Wherever the light of science shines, the mysterious darkness will retreat."
...
Wei Keng inferred: "In the early days, when termites and flagellates expanded together, there was no distinction between the primary and the secondary. But as the expansion of the biological form of termites was restricted, ants joined, but ants could not accommodate the flagellates' absorption of plant energy. Flagellates then crossed the ants and expanded towards the jungle. It happened that other gene communities in the jungle had not yet risen and failed to use radiation to kill protozoa, so these protozoa began to counterattack!"
Now, these protozoa are powerful, not only infiltrating the digestive tract, but even infiltrating the nervous system.
The highest-ranking commander in the insect swarm is still the queen, but the one who conveys and receives information is no longer the nerve of the ant. Once the protozoa expands to non-ant gene communities and takes root successfully, the consciousness of this flagellate gene community will no longer be in the body of the ant, but will be transferred to other species communities.
This is just like capital. At this stage, it is in the core of your tribe and country, issuing orders for your country and tribe. Once the "new world" is found, it will immediately break away from the host like a parasitic civilization.
~
After digging out samples of all the protozoa around, Wei Keng finally found the original gene that can carry the life cells of the swarm.
The Tonglu District will focus on cultivating this kind of cell.
However, this cultivation is also destined to be under the influence of human genes!
The final product is like the big radish soaked in the pool. Although it will become a community system with sufficient energy supply, it will eventually become submissive.
~
Here is an explanation of the master-servant relationship between gene communities.
Now the human gene community is the master, and the organisms including the big radish rely on human industry to provide energy as servants.
Then the proteins that can be replicated in human genes are not allowed to be used by your submissive gene community, and you have those that cannot be replicated by human genes. This is the status of a younger brother among younger brothers.
Using the global industrial chain as an analogy, in the protein synthesis industry chain, the human cluster itself is complete, and the "backward groups" such as the subjugated gene community must find the supply chain from the genes in the human community in order to replicate completely.
Without human genes to provide a large number of core proteins, even if the subjugated tribe has a seemingly brilliant biological energy flow, it may be finished at any time due to the lack of human supply chain.
~
The Tongfa District has begun to build a production line for this carbon-based communicator.
This factory will have a large number of culture dishes, which will be integrated in the culture dishes through current and frequency band effects, and then attached to the vascular tissue to provide energy.
Eventually, a mouse-head-sized organization will be formed! This organization can convert the electrical information input from the keyboard into the life frequency band and transmit it, and can also display the life signal sent by the signal tower on the interface, or directly translate it into a spiritual language that can be understood by humans.
Put the organization into a glass shell, stick it to the constant temperature area under the armpit, and regularly add sugar cubes for replenishment, then, then, communication technology! It's done!
~
Use cell integration instead of silicon-based circuit board integration. The technical route is completely different.
Although a large number of cells have reached the micron level. Compared with silicon-based, it seems weaker. However, silicon-based integrated circuits are carved on a surface, while cells can be integrated in three dimensions. Moreover, each cell is not binary. In the Pandora field, the synthesis and deformation of different proteins can emit unique frequency bands.
After the emergence of this technical route, the standard for technological breakthroughs is not how many nanometers are required, but how to integrate cells more effectively.
The brain of a whale is 7,000 grams, and the brain of an elephant is 5,000 grams, both of which are larger than that of a human, but they are definitely not advanced.
Every capillary and the construction of a nerve chain need to be studied and optimized. What will be created now may be a technical chain that will take hundreds of years to overcome the limit.
To maintain this technical chain, a large number of culture dishes must be used to culture the flagellate-genetized ant nerves. And in this way, the continuous replenishment of substances, allowing their genes to replicate, according to the ecological energy supply, will definitely produce a community.
And such a community must rely on humans.
…
The White Spirit Deer has been pushing to increase the actual importance of the Pandora plane.
Carbon-based communication was the last straw that made the highest review department of the Great River Galaxy Space-Time Management Department make up its mind!
Since the end of the first plane war, many high-level travelers have predicted when passing through the Pandora plane: As long as this plane can be controlled, it will be the best plane for biotechnology research.
For the main world, if it can repeat the evolution of specific organs and biological tissues over tens of millions or hundreds of millions of years through decades and hundreds of years of biological evolution experiments, the value is sky-high.
For example, starting from a more primitive starting point, building a developed brain organization and muscle nerve reaction system. Breaking out of the shackles of "being the result of intelligent evolution" can allow humans to have a deeper understanding of the formation of wisdom
~
Of course, during the first plane war, the upper echelons of the Space-Time Administration did not hesitate to admire the potential of this plane because it is always potential.
And a certain sergeant who "accidentally" opened a new historical line in the Pandora plane was still busy in other planes at that time.
When that "sergeant" comes back to continue to open up history, whether the scientific research attributes of the plane can really be stimulated will require a new demonstration.
But now, Bai Linglu has been submitting a report every day, reporting progress in a formulaic but sarcastic language: "Look, look, everyone, please slowly discuss it. My technical patents are full and I have to apply for a high-level confidentiality procedure."
~
Indeed, when Wei Keng's consciousness was partially pulled back from the Pandora plane, milestone-level major discoveries popped up one after another.
Bai Linglu: Finding the right explorer to perform the task will be twice the result with half the effort. Now, even the apostle life forms in this high-risk plane can be attacked at any time!
Biochip technology, artificial evolution of organ tissues~~derived "colonization technology" also sees the dawn.
All obstacles to the rise of human civilization have been cleared. There is a smooth road ahead, and a lot of fruits are waiting to be picked. The quick hand will get it, and the slow hand will be gone!
~
Bai Linglu soon got what she wanted. Her supervisory level in the Space-Time Administration Bureau was significantly improved.
In terms of position, she is higher than Qin Xiaohan and can intervene in the deployment of the current space-twisted plane.
On the space-twisted plane, her supervisory authority is almost the same as that of Qin Xiaohan, the leader. But now she is much more experienced, and she did not exercise the right to interfere with the mess of Kongniu, but only made suggestions.
On the other side of the Kongniu plane, Wei Keng is still accumulating technology without limit, avoiding direct combat, which makes Qin Xiaohan's guiding ability questionable.
...
On the shore of the Yangtze River estuary, the surface of the river, once called Huangpu River, is now rolling with white waves because of the end of human industrial activities.
Jianye City has set up a military fortress here that can accommodate 5,000 people. This fortress is not high, and the people coming and going are wearing homespun clothes. The carriages and horses in the city make it look like the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
But through the heavy fog on the river, you can see the magnificent city ruins in the east!
Puhai City, the largest city of mankind before Pandora's advent, one skyscraper after another that has lost its glass skin stands upright, becoming a "ghost finger" shrouded in clouds and fog.
In the broken glass, something suspected to be a tentacles or vines hangs down from it, baring its teeth and claws. Every evening, under the sunlight, you can occasionally see dozens of meters of slender "spider crabs" climbing and walking on the top of the building. It was once the most prosperous place in the old civilization era. The price of each residential house could squeeze out the hard work of several generations of outsiders, but now it has become a ghost den occupied by the East China Sea gene community.
Compared with the former prosperity of Puhai, this mottled bastion fortress with blue bricks mixed with red bricks looks like an industrial garbage dump, but it is now the easternmost stronghold that Jianye can reach the sea to the east.
Today, the people here began to patrol the outer river water as usual, and by the way, cut off the life community entering the inland river from the ocean.
However, in the distant Puhai City, a large number of flying life forms were startled! The diffuse smoke that could cover two-thirds of the building, like a long gown that a brothel woman took off in a flash, quickly dissipated, and the entire building was exposed at once.
Then, a sad dragon roar came from the other side of the sea!
The plot of Tianlilong is happening.
