Gate of Revelation Chapter 548: [Life? 】
Chapter 548 [Life? 】
Base equipment room.
On a metal workbench, under a super-resolution display.
Roddy controls a work instrument. On the metal arm, countless small soft antennae, gently disintegrate a small piece from the specimen on the work table, and then carefully send it to the disassembly display.
"Slow down, slow down, right, don't move ... be gentle and gentle ... haha! Alright!"
Rodi cheered, exhaled a long breath, and looked back at Chen Xiaolian standing behind him: "What the **** are you doing?"
"The remains of the electronic guard." Chen Xiaolian's face was calm: "You analyze it first, and if there are results, we will continue to say."
After a few minutes, Rody's gaze left the container full of solution, and he turned to look at the instrument display on the workbench.
"What do these data mean?" Chen Xiaolian pointed to the content on the display, but he couldn't understand it anyway.
"Okay, I can't explain too much with your academic scum." Roddy smiled proudly.
"Hey, don't say that, you copied my answer during the school exam."
"That's a liberal arts." Roddy quickly said: "I will copy you if I'm not interested."
Stop, he stared at the data on the display and narrowed his eyes: "It's ... fun."
"Don't worry about it alone, let's talk, what's the result?"
"Okay." Roddy nodded, then touched his pocket, took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth, but it didn't light it, but after a dry addiction, he quickly said: Say, this is a very pure metal life. "
"... speak people."
"We humans and other creatures belong to carbon-based life, do you understand that? The legend says that those metal lives belong to silicon-based life. No matter how you learn scum, you are a writer. I have written so many fantasy science fiction novels, you always know this. "
"... Lao Tzu's novel hasn't been updated in a long time." After Chen Xiaolian teased a sentence: "You continue to say."
"Well, you ca n’t explain it in detail, you do n’t understand it. I can only say that from the existing analysis results, this thing is completely different from us in terms of the structure of life. .Our architecture is a carbon chain, and the macromolecular structure is so, but ... it is not. "
Rodi pointed at the display and repeated it very hard: "It's not!"
"I still don't understand."
Rodi sighed: "Now almost all living things in our world are carbon-based. Let me put it this way, if I take this thing on the table outside, then I can win the Nobel Prize in minutes . "
"So, it is a life that does not exist in our world, right?"
"Yes," Roddy quickly said, "the simplest is: it's not made of water and carbon."
"Silicon-based life?"
"Not exactly right." Roddy scratched his scalp: "Actually, the so-called silicon-based life is an illusion, and this illusion has great defects. First, the chemical reaction of silicon-based life is very It ’s slow. In other words, if there is such a life, it may take a long time for it to make a random action, or it may take several hours to complete the blink of an eye if it really has eyes.
Another one, silicon is easy to oxidize. The oxidation of silicon will form a solid, that is, it will become ... sand. And ... silicon-based life needs higher temperatures to adapt to the surrounding environment. In theory, they need at least two Baidus to be considered normal. So they may not survive the temperatures we have today. This is why silicon-based life does not exist on Earth. "
"That is, if there is a world of silicon-based life, then that world should be ..."
"It should be a place with low or even no oxygen, and the temperature is very high," Roddy quickly said.
Chen Xiaolian's eyes light up!
That world ... is that so?
"It's a life." Roddy quickly said: "I can confirm that the decomposed cells have all the characteristics of life. Just by my knowledge, I can't understand how it works. You know , We have different foundations, and our cognition cannot be put on it. "
Rodi stretched out his finger and swiped across the screen. Soon, other numbers appeared on the screen.
"Remember the electronic bugs I got in the copy before? The unlucky team that was killed by our group, one of the guys with similar ability to me, he raised some metal bugs as creatures. I I thought it was an electronic life, but after I took it back and analyzed it, I was disappointed. It wasn't the real electronic life, but some electronic instruments made with nano-level technology, just made like insects. But in fact, it is just a highly intelligent thing made by nano-level technology. Although highly intelligent, it is still a small thing that can be remotely controlled according to the program. It is not real life.
Look, these are the decomposition results of that kind of electron worm, and there are significant differences between the fragments of this electronic guard you brought back. "
"Are the differences so far?"
"Farther than the Milky Way to Sagittarius."
Roddy shrugged his shoulders: "The electronic guard you brought back had its cells broken down and had a lot of interesting features, such as ... dissolvable and deformable."
"Uh?"
"I observe that the decomposed cells are constantly changing shape under the display, that is to say, this life can be deformed ... well, you can understand it like Transformers ... Ah no, that one is still Not enough, like the kind of liquid metal man. But more perfect! More powerful!
"What to say?"
"They can split themselves and multiply themselves. At the same time, they are more resistant to high temperatures and will not be killed when they fall into the steel melting furnace like the liquid metal man in the movie" Terminator ". For them, they may fall into steel. It ’s like taking a hot bath in the melting furnace. "
"Besides that, you said that the action of silicon-based life should be very slow ... this is not right." Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly: "I played against the electronic guard in Zero City, but their actions are very Fast. "
"I didn't say it was silicon-based life." Roddy shook his head: "Si-based life is what we humans imagine, but I didn't say it was. It is an alternative metal-like thing. It's just I do n’t know what it is, it ’s not carbon-based anyway. ”
"Then the question now is ... are these little things I brought back worth anything?"
Lody smiled.
He smiled strangely: "To others, it might be a pile of scrap iron that can be thrown into the smelting furnace, but in my hands, I have a lot of interest to see if I can make it with them. Some interesting gadgets. By the way, how much did you bring back this thing? "
"A lot, there are always semi-trucks," Chen Xiaolian said.
"Is there a bit more complete? A bit more complete." Roddy asked.
"Yes."
"Then ... I have a lot of inspiration." The smile of this guy made Chen Xiaolian feel a little sneaky, and he listened to Roddy grinning: "Maybe I can make something, later Encounter will surprise the enemy when encountering the enemy. "
Speaking, Roddy yelled, "gm !!!!"
Soon, a synthetic electronic voice appeared in the room: "I said, I'm not gm, I'm not a clone of the outside body, I'm an independent new existence, please call me the base master. "
"Okay, master." Roddy thought for a while: "I need some new equipment, a breeding chamber that can be cultivated and decomposed. It is best to have a larger one, which has a high-temperature cultivation environment and can be automatically adjusted. .There is also a need for a more powerful operating platform, the best is closed, you can switch the manual function. Well, there are some instruments that can provide a variety of metal synthesis, preferably with spray and decomposition functions. "
Rodi quickly uttered a long list of requests.
After listening to the base master quietly, he answered: "Yes, these requirements can be generated in the base, but it takes energy, I remind you that you have n’t replenished the base for a long time. From me We have been consuming since we controlled the base. "
Chen Xiaolian suddenly said, "Why does Zero City never need to replenish energy? I haven't heard that there are also melting furnaces and other things in Zero City."
"Because I'm not a zero city."
"But I always thought you were the same kind of thing. Isn't this base just a small one?"
"This is a small initial program module that is separated, but it is not complete. ZeroCity has more complete, or more perfect functions. As for me ... I am still in the growth stage, and I cannot do it yet. To self-sufficiency in energy. "
"How can I do that?" Chen Xiaolian asked.
"It takes time to grow, or you recharge and let me grow quickly, or find a suitable world for me to colonize, and I can self-evolve, and at the same time draw energy from myself, forming a virtuous circle. "
Chen Xiaolian was silent for a moment, and asked, "Crow in? What does this mean?"
"A separate space for me to colonize."
"Can this world not work?" Chen Xiaolian asked.
"No match, this world is too big for me at the moment."
Suddenly Roddy asked, "So when you grow up, can you also have powerful functions like Zero City, for example, create some resource space for us to use?"
"Yes." The base master controlled the channel.
"Explain further the meaning of colonization." Chen Xiaolian said coldly: "It is best to illustrate some feasible solutions."
"For example, if you enter some low-risk copies, those low-risk copies have less space and low resistance to the outside world. I can colonize them smoothly without causing a reaction in the main world program , And then swallow and occupy space, so you can ... "
"Then you can slowly evolve into a zero-city existence?" Chen Xiaolian asked.
"Yes."
"I see." Chen Xiaolian waved his hand: "I'll think about it carefully and end the conversation now."
Rodi seems to want to say something, but suddenly found that Chen Xiaolian gave himself a strange look. After years of tacit understanding, Rodi closed his mouth immediately. (To be continued.)
