Chapter 789: Chapter 790 Ascension Mission (Part 1)
"Ask for a batch of metal hydrogen. This star system has no planets and lacks construction resources..."
"I'm studying wormhole technology, which requires a lot of antimatter and is urgently needed..."
"Discover new alien civilizations, the coordinates are..."
"Produce affluence announcement, the solid helium resources of this colonial stellar system are rich and accumulated. If you need it, please contact us..."
"I found a new relic of Hui civilization, but unfortunately it has been eroded into an empty shell by a long time, and its value has plummeted. I hope that more in-depth investigation can be found..."
"Finding a star system with a star gate, another channel has been added to the ethnic group's door-to-door world. At present, the intelligent species in the star system have been controlled. The other party is the local forces of the gate world, and we are trying to control it physiologically and psychologically..."
Since the popularization of superluminal technology in Amoeba, stars have become quiet, and the star system colonized by collectors has become more active.
The messenger creature starts from a stellar system and runs to the star system close to several light-years in seconds to broadcast the information, and the collectors in the colonial star will collect all the information broadcast by the messenger creatures. After other messenger creatures enter the stellar system, they will transfer the information to the messenger creatures. Let them be taken to other nearby star systems.
This constitutes a superluminal information network.
This is a good thing, which makes the cohesion of the whole Amoeba stronger than before, but it also has disadvantages. If you encounter a meme virus similar to the destruction of civilization, the death of Amoeba will also accelerate.
Generally speaking, there are advantages and disadvantages.
In a star system, a collector stands on a small slope in their traditional posture and stares at the night stars above his dome, as if he can see the mysterious appearance hidden under the beautiful appearance of the universe through the bright stars.
"What are you thinking about?"
A piece of information is transmitted to the collector through the life field.
The collector turned around from staring at the starry sky and answered questions from his own race.
"Think about the task."
"What's the need for the task to be considered? The order of the will is absolute, and we just need to do it."
The words of the collector who delivered this information are full of puzzled.
Their mission is different from other missions of colonizing star systems. The content of the mission is directly assigned by the supreme will of the highest power of the whole Amoeba. Unlike others, it is formulated by the collectors themselves out of the development needs of the ethnic group.
Originally, in accordance with the principle of supreme will of the ethnic group, the collector only needs to follow the content of the task and complete the task, which is a matter of course.
However, there is a problem in this mission, which makes the individual collector responsible for directing the task very hesitant.
After being questioned by his peers, the collector asked his hesitation. 520
"But...what else can we have if we give up the life field?"
"This time, the task entrusted to us by the will is too strange. It is not to change genes, but to change today's life form. It is to give up the life field, give up the will, and completely become another creature..."
This task is marked as 'flying' by the supreme will, which is very rare. The supreme will has never specifically named any task, but this time it is intentional, as if to remind the collectors of the importance of this task to the ethnic group.
The essence of the task is a transformation, transforming the collector into another kind of life. It is not as simple as simply changing genes. For genes, collectors can change whatever they want. There is no psychological burden at all, but the task given by the supreme will is to break the original framework of the collectors.
"So you are hesitating?" Individual rhetorical questions.
"Yes."
The hesitant collector replied simply.
The same family thought for a moment and organized the information to feedback to the collector.
"The will is very clear in the mission. Our life form has imprisoned the future of the ethnic group. If we want to make great strides forward, we need to break the routine and break the confinement. With cells as the basic unit, we are too fragile and need to replace another more stable basic unit. At the same time, generality cannot be inferior to the current details. Cell..."
"In another way, the population needs a new type of cell."
Amoeba's technology has always been subject to biological cells. The fundamental reason is that the tolerance range of organic biological cells is too narrow, and the difference between the upper and lower limits is not large.
In the face of high temperatures higher than 100 degrees, collectors will begin to consider the cooling design structure. In the face of low temperatures below zero, collectors will begin to consider the structural design of heating, even in the face of radiation, even if it is only low-range. The degree of radiation, which is destructive to genes, cannot be ignored and requires special radiation protection design.
As a result, the structure of the organism will become very complex and bloated.
"Will does not want us to just imprison our thoughts by carbon-based chemistry. There are various forms of life, and the basic units that make up life are also diverse. They can be silicon-based cells at room temperature, data packets of programmed life, or even 'cells' composed of subatomic substances of simple and parallel life.
"As for giving up the life field, the reason is also very simple, because the life field has been unable to meet the growing demand for information circulation of ethnic groups for a long time, and can only be used as a secret means of communication and the ability to change genes."
"The most useful point is the ability to change genes, but if the life form changes completely, the ability to change genes is naturally meaningless. We just need to use the current cell as the template to add a mechanism similar to the life field, which can change the genes inside the cell. "
Even if the life field is abandoned, it is not that the collectors can't accept it. Although the life field has accompanied them for a long time, these are nothing in the face of the progress of the ethnic group. Since they have blocked the way of the ethnic group, they will still abandon it.
"I said that it is to 'change' the life form. You don't understand the task given by the will at all. It's not as simple as changing cells."
The previous hesitant collector replied to the same clan, and its words were very dissatisfied, because in its view, the same clan fundamentally misunderstood the content of the task, so it continued to explain, "This change is to usher in a change together with us. According to the idea of will, if it can succeed, the group is the individual, the individual is the group. "
If the research direction indicated by the supreme will in the task is successful, the collectors will be able to have multiple brains and bodies, which is a networked life form, but they can also switch to individual types.
This appearance is a little like the supreme will, but it is different. Huo Gu's supreme will can't transfer his thinking subject to another body.
