Chapter 420 Chapter 10.17 New Foundation of Life on Earth

What is the limit of carbon-based life?

Before the arrival of Pandora Field, life on Earth had continued for billions of years, and evolved vigorously for 500 million years in the Cambrian period, and gradually touched the upper limit of carbon-based life.

The hardest natural carbon-based materials on Earth are natural materials such as golden nanmu and whale bones. And the growth of these materials requires decades of life development.

The carbon-based reproduction speed, represented by mice and ants, can proliferate exponentially. Of course, bacteria replicate faster, but everything is based on the premise of structural simplification. The more complex the organism, the slower the reproduction speed.

Among carbon-based animals, the largest terrestrial animals are the sauropods, and the sea giants are whales.

In the pre-Earth era, this invisible upper limit appeared.

So the life will of the Earth selected humans, began to forge tools, smelt inorganic materials, and broke through the upper limit of materials. If it develops normally, humans will study physics, speculate on the properties of high-energy physics, and further break through new limits after achieving breakthroughs in energy control.

However, at the moment, when the physical rules in the universe float over, another path appears.

"Flesh and blood body" is no longer a "flesh and blood body" that metabolizes water-based organic matter below 40 degrees. The physical rules of the Pandora field can provide higher energy levels.

~

The cadres of the Tonglu District were invited by Wei Keng to see the strange scene in front of them.

In the almost "hot" life metabolism, the carbon-based pipelines "burned" and grew in the light.

The heat and burning here are by no means the temperature in the physical sense. It is the highly intense metabolic energy felt by the bystanders in the Tonglu District from the life field.

The oxidizing power provided by the ion torch allows Wei Keng to build carbon-based life thousands of times faster than the natural speed in the process of continuous exploration.

[When the Pandora Field just arrived, there would be a phenomenon where the whole person would instantly turn into a plant, or a large amount of carbon-based materials would directly condense from the void to replicate the human body. At that time, it was strange to humans. But after the advancement of physics, this phenomenon became controllable and became very terrifying. ]

At the scene, in the "fire-like" life activities, a main body of five meters, limbs of eight meters, and various structures full of insect-like arcs, but the material was a carbon fiber shell, and it grew out like this.

Then the biological blood vessels grew out of the metalized bones like tentacles, and a cavity was left.

After this cavity was formed, it can be seen that it is a cockpit, which can be operated and controlled by mental language.

This is a very complete biological mecha, but after witnessing such a growth process, the Tongluo District personnel present were a little scared and did not dare to ask for a driver.

Because, this is the fear of life to high-energy phenomena.

When people encounter elephants or trucks charging, they will involuntarily dodge. However, when a tank with a perfectly replicated turret, barrel and track is suddenly printed out from a red-hot state, people's first reaction is not that the tank can be driven, but that they are worried about what to do if the tank immediately turns red hot and melts after approaching it.

Because this has broken the "stability" that humans are used to in common sense.

~

Of course, there are still people who trust Wei Keng. Under Wei Keng's prompt, Luo Hongxing and Zeng Shuba both got on this purely biological structure mecha. After removing the cover and connecting the neural frequency band, the black eyelids of the multiple pairs of compound eyes in the front, back, left and right of the entire biological mecha opened directly.

Luo Hongxing and Zeng Shuba embedded the central brain tissue of the biological tank through the language of the mind and tried to operate it on the test field. But after a few minutes, they were able to move and charge flexibly. This speed is as if creatures such as deer and horses will run away just a few minutes after they are born. This shows that the thing printed by Wei Keng is very suitable for human operation.

With a weight of twelve tons and a dense shell of carbon fiber silicon crystal, this weapon can be compared with the current steel-forged mecha.

However, no one had a happy expression on their face, but a serious expression.

Because if this is true, Wei Keng and human civilization have developed two systems in terms of creation ability.

Wei Keng does not rely on steel and various complex inorganic materials. He can directly use "ion flame" to increase the energy of breathing and directly create large carbon-based creations.

And how large is the scale of this manufacturing volume? Wei Keng is sure that there may be interstellar swarms in this universe!

~

At present, Tongfaqu and Wei Keng are still comrades. But out of the most basic realistic thinking, in the future prospects, when the two sides do not need to cooperate, there will be a gap. That is of course a worry.

In a healthy civilization, there should be no tacit acceptance of the emergence of an emperor or a swarm master.

In the absence of blood relationship, only the slaves will be filled with joy like buying the right stock because the master they surrender to is powerful.

For example, now the big carrot, as Wei Keng began to use the carbon-based physiological activities constructed under high-energy oxidation to build a skeleton with movable joints for it to swim in the water, this guy felt Wei Keng's strong life flame pouring into his body, and he praised the "Lord of Humanity" with fear and joy.

~

In the central base, the red flags on the square were still fluttering in the wind.

Wei Keng finished demonstrating the potential of the current high-energy carbon-based stacking on matter.

In the small building with floor-to-ceiling glass windows at the test site, Wei Keng turned around and faced the researchers in various areas of the entire command area.

Wei Keng looked at everyone and said: "Have a meeting and discuss future technology. The truth is not something to be feared. We need to 'face' it correctly and then analyze the future direction together."

Wei Keng's tone was very calm, but at this time, even if Wei Keng's tone was gentle, it could not conceal the fear at this moment.

The scientific seminar was not held at the venue, but directly in the open environment of the playground.

This is because Wei Keng also understood from an ordinary person's perspective: when encountering something beyond imagination, if you enter the same confined space with this being who has mastery beyond imagination, you will have claustrophobia.

However, in an open environment, this was just the right issue for Wei Keng to open up and talk about.

Wei Keng put on a white lab coat and took chalk to write on the blackboard: "You have already seen the next change when our technology advances in this Pandora field. To be honest, I know what you are thinking about now. "This Wei Keng is still not a human being. Will he eat people in the future?"

No one on the scene agreed. Wei Keng touched his nose in embarrassment, which was a common move to cover up his embarrassment.

Wei Keng: "I won't comfort you anymore. I won't lie to you. I am also thinking about whether I am a human being."

Wei Keng stared at everyone, speaking so honestly, the expressions of those present were a little relaxed. Indeed, if Wei Keng covered up this issue, everyone would always be a little bit confused. Now that Wei Keng does not cover up this issue, he can be objective.

Wei Keng continued: "But from a higher perspective, if I doubt whether I am a human being in a certain state, then I will start to think about what will happen to me in the future if I am not a human being. Sample?"

Wei Keng: "I know one thing. I am a middle-aged person. If I can think of things that are not human, then there must be people in this world who dare to think of and do things that are more courageous than me. Do the things that I cannot tolerate. It’s beyond my imagination.”

Just like in Journey to the West, the monkey was taught a lesson on "Become a devil or become a Buddha" in Shituoling.

Skeletons are like mountains, and bones are like forests. People's hair became like felt pieces, and their skin and flesh rotted into mud. People's tendons are wrapped around the trees, and their branches are burnt and shiny like silver. It was really a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, and the stench was really unpleasant. The little demons in the east took and chopped up the flesh of living people; the demons in the west cooked the human flesh freshly.

What does the top demon king in the world look like? Sun Wukong understands that he cannot go on the road of becoming a demon.

Wei Keng transmitted to these comrades in the control area the details of the current principles of high-oxygen carbon-based life reactions in the spiritual language.

From a microscopic perspective, graphene composite materials can be constructed on a large scale. This construction is not a tiny material in the laboratory in the 21st century, but an uninterrupted large material that continues throughout the entire organism. in the organization.

If there are enough organic matter, we can even complete the carbon-based pipeline transported to space. By absorbing the geothermal energy of the planet to maintain the strength of the organic matter, we can directly transport the atmosphere, water and other organic matter into space, and print out a space battleship.

This is similar to space elevator technology. Of course, it must be grander than the space elevator. Because the replication process of organic matter is one of the most efficient processes in creation.

Mr. Wei introduced in a very serious tone: "If we can do this, will there be such a group of life in the universe that can plunder organic resources like a swarm of insects?"

Just as the comrades in the Tongfa District were worried about Wei Keng's situation after he became demonized, Wei Keng was worried about the situation outside the earth.

Wei Keng did not choose to respond arrogantly to other people's concerns, but instead handed his own concerns to these people.

That's right, after Wei Keng explained his greater fear, each scientist in the Tongfa District finally turned the attention suppressed by Wei Keng to the universe.

As a primary civilization on the planet, the earth is far from reaching the level of being able to uphold justice in the universe.

Before the Great Destruction, if human governments encountered the super civilization behind Pandora Field before encountering Pandora Field, and could see the horrific consequences of life radiation, then they would inevitably "promise to aliens for the continuation of the race" All requirements.”

The representatives of the commanding area accepted the "new scientific hypothesis" to theoretically predict the existence of interstellar insect swarms. Wei Keng is far from being a "threat", but is the core trump card of civilization on the earth now.

Even if the command zone can now use all its strength at this initial moment to kill Wei Keng, who now has the "tyrant potential", this will only make the threat that is now visible disappear. Greater dangers ahead remain.

However, the people present at the meeting struggled to accept the fact that Wei Keng had developed into a "non-human" carbon-based existence.

Wei Keng shook his head and whispered: "I am born with fear."

When Wei Keng talked about the interstellar worm swarm in the command zone, he did not intend to use a greater external threat to cover up the internal threat he caused.

That is the governing logic of Western civilization. Mr. Wei is a very traditional oriental man who values ​​family harmony and prosperity.

Wei Keng wants to be a human being. The form of human beings from 1 to 60 years old is the sacred pedestal form accumulated over hundreds of millions of years. Wei Keng does not want to overthrow the old evolutionary results, but stands on this evolutionary result and adds to it.

Wei Keng stamped his feet on the sand and asked everyone to listen to him. The stamping of feet didn't make much noise, but the action brought everyone back to their senses.

Wei Keng: "'Power cannot bend, wealth cannot be moved, poverty cannot be moved.' This is my favorite motto.

However, when I first came across this phrase, 'Power cannot bend', I thought it was 'when you see a strong enemy, you cannot surrender, you must fight to the death'.

But in reality, when I really encounter difficulties, can I really fight to the death? I thought about it carefully, and I think I might kneel down.

So I think 'it's not that you can't surrender after the power is on your head', but that when you foresee the 'power', you should be ready to grow your own hard bones. "

Wei Keng reopened the idea of ​​the hypothetical "space carbon-based civilization".

Wei Keng: "Now that we have foreseen the future 'power', we should now look objectively at where we will be unyielding in the future. Yes, that is, you all help me determine how we can maintain the unyielding of 'Earth humans' when facing the future space civilization."

Wei Keng gave everyone some time to receive information, and at the same time curbed Zeng Shuba's move to "agree" for herself. (Wei Keng: This caring little cotton-padded jacket really agrees with everything.)

Wei Keng: "We need to have a clear self-awareness. In the future, when we encounter alien creatures on Earth, which aspects must be maintained at the same level of competition!? Which are the origins that we need to firmly hold on to?

Don't subconsciously think that their path is correct when we witness the power of alien civilizations. Begin to ignore how important our accustomed foundations are to us.

I am an average person, and I know one thing, that is, walking on other people's paths may always be backward because of the lack of foundation. Even when choosing other people's paths, you lose your own foundation.

What is the foundation of life on Earth? Since the birth of the Ediacaran macrobiota, and then to the Cambrian explosion, our life is based on sexual reproduction and stable genetic inheritance. This determines our physiology, values, and the moral values ​​formed when humans began to understand and pursue civilization.

And the arrival of the Pandora life group, this alien The new rules imposed on life on Earth obviously do not require the accumulation of genes from generation to generation by both sexes, and all life can communicate, and this communication is even war and plunder.

The advanced life of the Pandora system does not have the concepts that human civilization on Earth is accustomed to. They win by giving birth to powerful macroscopic objects.

And what is our victory? The continuation of racial reproduction.

In other words, let the next generation, in terms of basic ability, be like us, and do what we have not tried "in possibility".

For this path, life on Earth has evolved the nature of dying to reproduce. Before the Great Destruction, migratory fish such as salmon laid eggs in their last journey. Even if they have experienced countless predators, they must reach the upper reaches and finally die after laying eggs.

Mammals have evolved motherhood. Women are weak, but they are strong as mothers.

And humans, as the highest animals, have evolved their own morality on the above basis. "

At this point, Wei Keng paused: "As long as the Tao is long-lasting, death is like returning home, what is there to fear!"

~

On the field, many people were silent.

Wei Keng: "So, I think that being unyielding is being unyielding for this. - When facing the future, we stick to our basic foundation, so that we can retain the basic advantages that our earth creatures have gained from basic evolution.

This advantage is that as earth life, we have the freedom to develop to be extremely powerful, and we also have the freedom to face destruction and still be stubborn to the end."

Wei Keng stated his request: "I need a continuator."

~

The continuation here is not the mother body of sexual reproduction, but the organic information that can carry Wei Keng's verification on the "high oxidation road".

The Tongfa District must support a group of humans. When Wei Keng is moving step by step towards biological gene accumulation under high oxidation, they must passively synchronize with Wei Keng's perspective and thinking on a large scale, and finally accept the series of technical experiences of "high-energy carbon-based" summarized by Wei Keng.

In this process, there will even be a situation where Wei Keng's personality and even thinking are inherited.

This process can be said to be a mode of inheritance of "genetic information" by the offspring from the father.

When life is almost docked, the carrier will basically become a second Wei Keng in addition to remembering his initial memory. (The son and the father are similar.)

This fusion result, if it happened before the Great Destruction, would be a bit daunting. Because at that time, humans in the culture were very arrogant and attached great importance to "self and freedom". Maybe in their teens, if there was no external pressure, they would begin to refuse to accept social knowledge.

Little did they know that the real upper class that dominated that era (the ancient times) began to indulge this freedom and no longer open knowledge to the new generation, which was the real sadness of civilization.

For various internal and external reasons, individuals on Earth who abandon the purpose of reproduction will make various abnormal behaviors.

In the history of human social development, women have no offspring, and the mentality of resentful women is often unbalanced. And men, - in the feudal era, the crazy and destructive people who rebelled were all homeless.

Now, in the thoughts and experiences injected by Wei Keng, all of them have left the reminder that "this is not perfect". So this is not the control of "mind invasion", but "reproduction" including thoughts.

Reproduction will leave room for development for the next generation when leaving a complex inheritance.

The supervisors on the system silently recorded this moment: Judging from Wei Keng's performance during the development of the Tonglu District, Wei Keng is a man who cares about his family.

There are higher levels behind the wise man stepping on the stars. The more extensive Wei Keng does at the beginning, the more room there will be for subsequent civilizations. Also, the swarm of insects cannot be eaten, that is, locusts. If you can eat, there are many kinds of proteins, that is the interstellar seafood group you are worried about running away.

The human gene chain can replicate more proteins than the swarm of insects.

Wei Keng is now playing a way that does not simplify the protein, and also allows subsequent descendants to increase it.

This is another disadvantage. The final product on the timeline can only be matched by a few families!

Even if the population of the Tonglu District is small now, there will be millions of people who can participate in the next hundred years. In the next two hundred years, it may be nearly tens of millions of people.
