Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 790: 2 species

Foreign Minister Lao Yang sighed and said: "The topic of level six civilization is too complicated for us to discuss now. Let's change the topic, if we let you understand the ultimate question of the universe and its answer, but you know Will you die in an instant after that?"

Zhang Yuan didn't hesitate to say: "There will be some people who are willing, and the proportion may be quite large... Anyway, I am definitely willing!"

"I do too."

"Yes!"

Everyone gave out their files one after another.

Li Zhendong was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "The ultimate question... It must be willing."

Old friends at the party actually gave the same answer. Old Yang couldn't react for a while. He didn't expect this group of people to have such a consistent idea, and they all showed strange smiles at him.

After a few seconds, seeing Lao Yang look a little bit incredulous, Zhang Yuan explained: "Lao Yang, the temptation of the ultimate problem of the universe is too great. It encompasses the meaning of survival and everything. If you know its answer, you will know everything, even when you die."

"Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem to be a big deal to die... Anyway, I personally would definitely be willing."

"The value of the ultimate problem of the universe is too high. In my opinion, it is much higher than the cost of personal life. The scope should be narrowed down. For example, the solution to the black box problem, the true mystery of quantum consciousness, the breakthrough of predictive mathematics, Faced with these slightly smaller questions, if I die instantly after knowing the answer, this price...I might hesitate for a while."

Many of the scientists present nodded and agreed with Zhang Yuan's point of view.

In the face of gaining more knowledge and personal life, there is a balance.

The value of human life is limited, and enough knowledge can indeed move life. This is the general idea of ​​all the scientists present here.

"This should be a difference in values. For some civilizations, enough money can move lives; but for us, enough knowledge can move lives."

"If you compare superiority and good or bad, I think the latter may be better, because advocating knowledge can promote the progress of civilization."

Even Li Zhendong, who is usually slick, ponders this question seriously: How much is his life worth?

In real life, does the so-called Tao and the ultimate truth of the universe exist?

No one knows.

Zhang Yuan sighed and said: "How to choose between happiness and ideals in life? Fish and bear paws, which is more important? There will never be a real answer to this question. The answer may vary from person to person. , What we expect is that anyone who makes any choice can gain the respect and understanding of others."

"The greatest success in life is to live your life in your own way. Now these Leoninos have made their own choices. For various reasons, they have not joined the alliance, so respect their choices. We are not interested in interfering with the choice of the fallen civilization."

Lao Yang spread out his hands: "Okay, okay, we succeeded in persuading me. I finally know the difference between the civilization of the sinkers and us. This gap is a change brought about by history and is irreparable. Although it is not a real qualitative change, it is already a big change..."

"It seems that we have been on this road for a long, long time."

He took a sip of coffee and suddenly seemed to think of something: "By the way, there is another very interesting thing to tell you. Our scientific expedition team is on Hongcan Star, which is the companion of Leinino Star , I found several suspected intelligent species...maybe even beehive intelligent species!"

"Oh?!"

Zhang Yuan's expression suddenly moved, and he was a little bit interested, "A wise bug?"

There are too many kinds of insects in Red Kanxing. It is conservatively estimated that there are 100 million species. Even if the Leoninos provide some of the biological specimens they have collected to humans, they are only a drop in the bucket. .

There are also a large number of species hidden in the forest and in the soil, waiting for people to discover.

The detection ability of the new humans is naturally not comparable to the Leonino civilization. Under the vigorous investigation of various detection robots, some very strange species that are suspected of intelligent life have been discovered.

"Hey, I know that people are very interested. This is the first-hand information that I just sent, and it's not confidential anyway."

Lao Yang called up a few photos from his personal terminal and showed them to everyone.

"The first species, let's call it alien bees for the time being. They live in the forest. They have wings and can fly. The average mass of an individual is about one kilogram, which is slightly larger than a fist!"

"Their survival mode is a bit similar to that of bees on earth. They **** plant juice and process some food into shellac with a longer shelf life. They have a certain social division of labor."

The robot found a nest of insects. The shellac in it is a very luxurious health product for the Leinino people. It is said to increase the life span. This bee-like species hides deep in the forest and is not easy to find, and the production of shellac is also very low.

"Can it really increase life?"

"Of course it is fake...The so-called shellac is some carbohydrates and some protein."

"The second species is called alien ants for the time being. They live in the soil and can dig holes. The average mass of the individual is 2.2 kg, which is considered to be a relatively large insect... The whole nest is a bit like According to the division of labor of ants on the earth, some individuals can ingest the humus in the soil, and then process nutrients such as nutrient paste to supply the entire population."

Zhang Yuan stared at the photos for a long time. These ferocious insects were naturally not very cute. He couldn't see how these guys have wisdom.

He asked in a skeptical tone: "This type of ant and bee type beehive group creatures have gone, and almost every living planet can be found. How do we think that they have a certain degree of wisdom?"

Lao Yang said with a smile: "Listen to me first, those groups that resemble bees are very aggressive. As we all know~IndoMTL.com~ The noble children of the Leinino civilization often come here in pursuit of excitement. Fighting bugs on two planets, and some program groups will also hold a game of fighting bugs... The hatred between the two parties may have lasted for thousands of years, even tens of thousands of years."

Zhang Yuan nodded.

He knew about this.

"This bee species, after being attacked by the Leoninos, has a very strong vengeance, and will immediately retaliate. They have very hard, poisonous tail needles that are stung to death or injury."

"But in the face of steel and bullets, the attack of insects is always powerless, so this species used to be the main target of the Leninos."

"After being slaughtered, this alien bee hid mysteriously...it can’t be said to have disappeared, but deliberately avoided the Lenino’s pursuit. They fled when they saw the Lenino, very strange Right? Generally speaking, the formation of the concept of natural enemies requires a long period of training, but this alien bee has changed very quickly, and it seems that they are very smart..."

"They are even the main force in instigating the occurrence of worm infestations in the forest!"
