Chapter 271 Width of Vision

Yan Xia did not hesitate. An Li would think whether this language carries an unknown influence, but Yan Xia would not consider it.

Because he could not think about these things at this time.

He was responsible for the entire Civilization Federation. At this time, they were in an absolute disadvantage. They needed to find a breakthrough as soon as possible.

It was like you were penniless. Do you have anything to complain about?

After such a long battle in the Federation, Yan Xia had put down his absolute attitude. He was too selfish in the past. This was not a bad thing. Life often emphasizes egoism, because in the context of human civilization, every life is egoistic.

But... the blooming of life in the Federation, countless individuals in the Federation can sacrifice themselves for the Federation as a collective. That spirit made Yan Xia rethink life and death.

What is the ultimate ideal of life?

Or why does an intelligent life give birth to wisdom?

Longevity?

If so, then with the evolution of nature, every life should become longer-lived, instead of being full of restrictions everywhere. Even the essence of cells is actually survival, and reproduction must give way to survival. However, Yan Xia has not seen the existence of immortality in any civilization or race in the natural state.

On the contrary, some lower life forms have longer lifespans than intelligent life forms.

Just like Fennelly and others, thousands of years of life are just a burden to them. Compared with such a long lifespan, they expect to get a short-term catharsis of emotions and desires.

Yan Xia has been thinking about this matter.

For him, longevity is still painful. Sometimes he has a strong sense of confusion. He always feels that he is supporting the entire federation, but after careful thinking, Yan Xia found that it was the federation that supported himself.

If there is no federation, Yan Xia doesn't know what the meaning of his life is.

It's like you are playing MC. You have been operating this world with your friends for 1 year or 2 years, but at this time the save file is suddenly lost. Do you still have the desire to restart? You may not even be able to open the game.

Yan Xia must solve the huge problem of the Olive Branch Civilization.

He can abandon the Federation and build a new Federation, but that is too painful. The Federation is not a game save file. Every life in the Federation really exists.

He used his secondary brain to read the language of the Olive Branch Civilization.

The moment he received these languages, he understood something.

It's like learning another language in elementary school or junior high school. When you come into contact with this language, you can feel a huge impact from a foreign culture. It is different from anything you have ever come into contact with.

No!

It's even bigger than that impact.

The world seen by the life of the Olive Branch Civilization is completely different from the world seen by humans.

In the language of the Olive Branch Civilization, there are even 37 colors, not 7. They don't have three primary colors, but 14 primary colors.

Up, down, left, right, front, and back.

This is the direction of human civilization, but the direction of the Olive Branch Civilization is more, and there are even high and low dimensions.

That is not an abstract concept. In the eyes of the life of the Olive Branch Civilization, they can originally see high and low dimensions.

The huge impact even made Yan Xia dumbfounded.

Most humans knew in the 20th century or even the 19th century that the light they can see is limited. For example, infrared, ultraviolet and other colors in sunlight are invisible to humans.

Prisms can refract the white light of the sun into 7 colors, and these 7 colors are superimposed to form white light.

But other animals on Earth are not the same as humans. Many mammals can only see blue-green, which is why predators such as tigers and lions are orange-yellow, because other mammals can't see red colors at all.

Some creatures have stronger senses than humans. For example, birds have 4 types of cones and can see ultraviolet rays.

So is the world seen by birds the same as the world seen by humans?

Even the eyes of fish and birds, the world they see is different from the world seen by humans. The world seen by fish is spherical. Any straight line is an arc in their eyes, but some arcs are straight in their eyes. Even if fish evolve civilization, it is almost impossible for human and fish civilizations to merge together in the early days.

What does the Federation look like now?

Yan Xia knows it all too well.

The lives of other races in the Federation are forced to speak human language. Even if they can't speak, they don't have a mouth, so they can just install a mechanical sounder.

If you can't understand the length, width and height of human civilization, then just give you a set of standard measuring instruments to let you know that this is length, this is width, and this is height.

If you can't understand the difference between 3D and 2D, then just stuff it into your brain without you having to use your eyes.

In this way, each race has adapted to everything now.

However, in fact, Yan Xia has never known what other races see and hear.

Those individuals in the Federation who have transformed themselves through genetic technology may have a say in this.

"It turns out that we have never known the Olive Branch civilization, Ella!"

At this time, Ella was stunned for a while, and then responded: "Yes."

Her hesitation was captured by Yan Xia. The world seen by robots must be different from the world seen by humans. The world that machines can perceive is wider, and the life of the Olive Branch civilization is a machine. Perhaps Ella can see part of the world seen by the life of the Olive Branch civilization.

"What is the essence of the world? This is an eternal topic."

"I used to think that everything I saw was everything, but now I realize that everything I see is only a part of the world, maybe even less than 1%."

"Everything we perceive comes from our hearing, smell, touch, taste and vision, which are so narrow."

The width of vision determines the upper and lower limits that civilization can touch.

Human civilization uses machines to see a wider world, while the Olive Branch civilization lives in a wider world by becoming a machine.

These two are different.

When you can see ultraviolet rays, you can easily use ultraviolet rays, but when you can't see ultraviolet rays, you have to discover ultraviolet rays first.

At this time, Yan Xia understood why they could not find weapons that destroyed the Silk Road of the Universe.

Because they can't "see" at all.

This is different from the so-called dark matter weapons that low-level civilizations cannot discover. With the development of technology, some civilizations will always discover the existence of dark matter, but discovering it does not allow you to really see it.

Just as the Federation has discovered dark matter and used it extensively, but can anyone in the Federation see dark matter?

Will Yan Xia then transmit his consciousness to the life carrier of the Olive Branch Civilization?

No need!

Because language can carry all of this, and the description of language can make invisible things become "visible".
