The Original Seeker Chapter 611: Cost
"This universe is really desperately big." He remembered these words again.
Compared with the life expectancy of tens of thousands of years in the ordinary world, the time left for Baimo is really too little.
Based on his current situation, it takes about 100 million people who are connected to the thinking network to share the power of Taoism.
Every time he loses one aspect of his power, he can delay the end of being completely Daoist for one year.
There are currently three billion holy walkers on the earth, which can only allow him to live another thirty years.
Moreover, he also found that as his strength continues to expand, the effect of sharing will gradually weaken, resulting in side effects similar to "drug resistance".
But in the end, this is the only practical solution at the moment. Even if it is resistant, he can only continue until he finds a new path, or it fails completely.
……
According to Baimo's calculations, the ultimate development of the first phase of the earth is to accommodate 300 billion intelligent life, including 100 billion on land and 200 billion on the sea.
The figure of 300 billion, substituted into his estimated time of death function, can provide about an additional five hundred years.
Five hundred years, plus the remaining three hundred years, at best, only eight hundred years.
Eight centuries may seem unimaginable to ordinary people, but if there is still no way to travel faster than light, with the existing technology of mankind, it will only be barely enough to escape the "solitary island of the sun" and reach the neighbor Of several galaxies.
……
As for the Federation, intending to spend three centuries on the voyage to escape the solar system is too extravagant for the current Bai Mo.
Because this means that more than half of the 800 years have to be spent on travel.
Of course, the Moon God has the fifth stage of the thousand-year life, and the sixth stage of the three-thousand-year life will think it is worthwhile. Even if everything else is stagnant, they have enough time to see the future.
What's more, the seventh-tier road has been spread, just waiting for them to take a step.
However, Bai Mo couldn't wait. The hopes of other galaxies were too far away. Even if they really escaped from the Sun Island at any cost, the remaining time would not be enough to do anything.
So he chose to cast his gaze on the sun, and use the mass energy of the nearest star to support the trillions, trillions of "cells" that will support his existence in the future.
……
The energy radiated from the sun, less than one-billionth can reach the earth once, and this one-billionth of the light illuminates the entire human civilization.
If he becomes the new "sun" and uses the power of the entire star directionally, even if it is a hundred times the current per capita energy consumption, it will be enough to feed trillions of human beings.
As for the way to accommodate so many humans, he might choose to tear down the earth in the end.
The current way of living only on the surface is too wasteful of material. The huge planet only uses a thin layer of land on the surface.
On the basis of the total amount of the earth's material, if it is reshaped into a sheet only tens of meters thick, the number of humans that can be accommodated will be tens of thousands of times.
Not to mention that he also left the two planets Mercury and Jupiter as backup materials, so he can practice his hands and experiment first.
Based on this plan, Bai Mo chose to live in the solar system.
His time now is very precious and cannot be wasted in the long space voyage.
……
Of course, all of this is still far away from the people living happily on the White Land.
……
One year later.
"The first artificial uterus factory...?" A group of students from the Baizhi Dadi Tianqing University School of Medicine walked into a place full of spiritual aura with seriousness.
They are the third group of students to organize a visit since the factory opened.
The four-meter-high glass tank is filled with light yellow liquid and human embryos hanging upside down in it. A large number of pipes leading to the underground are connected to the back of the tank, conveying something non-stop.
And the number of glass pillars like this can be seen at a glance.
The pale yellow almost occupies the entire world within sight, only the automatic robots that occasionally patrol by, bringing a few traces of gray and silver scenery.
These robots use built-in cameras to check the conditions of each tank.
In the lower right corner of each glass tank, there are written the corresponding number and the name of the parent who provided the germ cells, as well as the ID of the staff responsible for management.
……
"My mentor is a coordinator of the artificial womb project, but I really didn't expect to be industrialized so fast." The young man of the team couldn't help but sigh when he saw all this.
Although he looks like a teenager, he is actually a middle-aged man in his early forties, and he can be regarded as an old man who has experienced several previous eras.
The dense "womb forest" not only didn't scare him, but in the eyes of the team leader, it was even a little mysterious and kind.
"I heard that your mentor's previous results have to wait until the technology is fully mature and profitable before going to mass production?"
"Before the change, who would do something that didn't make money, especially the bottomless pit of biotechnology, must find ways to recover the cost." The leader replied without hesitation.
"But if the more you make, the more you lose, why do you still make it now?"
"Young people, there are market prices, and then there is the concept of loss. Our entire planet is now a planned economy. If there is any market price, there will be no loss.
As long as the prices of various instruments and raw materials are set at a penny, the loss will disappear. "The "middle-aged" team leader drew some kind of strange economics seriously.
"But isn't this self-deceiving, the food in the dining hall is still marked with prices! Who will sell it for a penny?"
"The current transaction is just a ceremony. The real buyer behind everything is the system, and all sellers are also the system.
From the farmers who grow grain, to the canteen where we buy grain, and to the people who eat, no one will profit from the change in that price, and no one will lose because of the change in that price.
Don’t forget that we are a rationing world~IndoMTL.com~ Contributing points is just a game!
……"
"Can you chat privately, please?" Another professor in the same class stopped the endless preaching of the leader.
"..."
The air is suddenly quiet.
……
"I didn't need to raise it before, but now I don't even need to raise it..." After a while, the new complaint poked his head out again, breaking the awkward silence.
Due to the low desire trend of the entire Taoist society and the disintegration of the concept of family, the fertility rate suddenly fell to an extremely low level.
The life span of ordinary humans who have undergone a decade-long transformation has also been generally extended to their early 200s, which has suddenly turned the society into a strange situation of "no life or death".
On the one hand, no one wants to live, and on the other hand, no one is dead...
