I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 317: New Crisis
No one knows how many expeditions will reach their destination.
People who stay in the solar system tell others not to look back when they leave, and they won't look up at the stars at will, it's meaningless.
In the spare time of busy study and work, people only stop occasionally and silently think of the faces that have gone away.
I wish you all the best in the distance.
At midnight on January 1, 2500, seven days after the last colony ship was sent away, something changed quietly.
As if by a pinch, a large radio telescope inside Pluto's colony was the first to pick up some of the changes.
Scholars quickly calculated their conclusions.
Just now, the speed of light in a vacuum dropped slightly by one ten-millionth of the previous standard value.
This sudden change is very subtle. If the current equipment is not sensitive enough and everyone is on high alert, it is almost impossible to be discovered so quickly.
This change is small and doesn't affect people's daily life and work at all, but it makes physicists horrified.
The physical rules in the solar system have undergone some changes that people on Earth cannot understand.
What happened next was the same as in the past.
The existence of a huge solar system barrier has been proven, and this barrier is still shrinking at a not slow rate, compressing the space of the solar system.
This kind of space compression will distort the rules of the universe at a certain level, and may block the way forward for theoretical knowledge after the technological level of human civilization reaches a certain stage.
Combining the instantaneous changes discovered by scholars before, scientists have concluded that it may be only a moment, only a billionth of a second, that humans are locked up.
Master Chen Feng's "Crisis of the Compound Eyes" tells not a story, but a prophecy.
Now his prophecy has come true.
Thankfully we believed his prophecy thirty-two years in advance and acted decisively.
Leaders around the world feel distorted.
There is a sense of solidity that the big stone in my heart has finally hit the ground, but it is so heavy that I can't breathe.
In the past timeline, every human civilization has experienced this phase of mental excess.
Humans always have fear when facing the unknown. This kind of fear will bring chaos. It requires hard and painful self-running in order to accept the reality bit by bit and adapt to the new situation.
But this time is a little different. The leadership trusts Chen Feng's prophecy like never before, and they know more things.
Things have happened, as we expected.
Since we gave up leaving and chose to stay with more than 37 billion people, there is no regret in our dictionary.
Master Chen Feng's portrayal in "Crisis of the Compound Eyes" is clear enough.
Since this prophecy is accurate, so should his depiction of the invaders who will arrive in five hundred years.
In the movie, the protagonist Zheng Feng eventually broke through the invader's battleship, rushed in, and killed one person.
Master Chen Feng will not lie, let alone brag!
He must "see" that day.
Furthermore, Master Chen Feng had already started preparations five hundred years in advance.
The game he created was exactly that!
Although our technology today is nowhere near the level he portrayed in the movie, it doesn't matter, we still have five hundred years.
We can reach, or even surpass, the level of technology in Crisis of the Compound Eye.
We will master the curvature-like engine, master the unified force field shield, master the gravitational wave device, master the enemy's strange bomb, and even master the black hole bomb!
Humanity must have the power to fight!
Start now and keep going!
This time, it only took one month from the establishment of the world government to the gradual announcement of the news to all mankind!
After half a year, more than 37 billion people of all mankind have accepted this reality.
Someone is crying.
Someone is pessimistic.
Someone is desperate.
But many more looked up at the huge statue that was rising rapidly in the center of the city.
It was a man with a strong face.
Hundreds of years ago, he fought and dedicated his life all his life.
His dying words echoed over and over on the radio.
"I have only one request for you, don't stop my unfinished business and keep going."
People used to wonder what he meant by his unfinished business.
Create?
Building?
Struggle?
Benefit future generations?
Now people know.
All these seemingly great and noble speculations are inaccurate.
His unfinished business has only two simple words.
Exists.
No matter the cost, no matter how many years of struggle, no matter what kind of enemy we will face, we have only one pursuit.
The existence of human beings cannot be obliterated!
The crying people took back their tears, the pessimistic people slapped themselves, and the desperate people stood up again with desperate fighting spirit.
Hua Zhongyun, the first leader of the world government, said: "Everyone, let's fight, it's still too late, we still have five hundred years!"
In the summer of 2500, with the completion of Chen Feng statues in major planetary cities, mankind quickly entered the next era - five hundred years of preparation for war.
In the winter night of 2519, 99.99% of all human beings stayed at home a little nervously, only the soldiers and medical workers who were fully armed and completely wrapped in isolation armor were cautiously Stand guard on the street.
Humans have already completed the national vaccination and have antibodies.
But still on full alert, the whole people have kept this kind of home for three whole months, and it is now December 31, 2519.
The year 2519 is the last day.
At this time, everyone is holding a portable genetic testing machine in their hands.
The indicator lights of the numerous genetic monitoring towers in the major settlements are flashing gleamingly.
No one knows where the enemy will come from and how it will come.
But everyone knows what kind of enemy they are waiting for, invisible to the naked eye, but fierce as the devil.
The clock on the wall is ticking.
Father in full isolation gear, his eyes fell on the monitor beside him.
There are pictures of two rooms on the monitor. In the pictures are his wife and daughter who have also completed quarantine prevention.
From time to time, the man lowered his head and looked at the genetic tester in his hand, and then looked at the fireplace not far away.
Behind the fireplace is a medium-sized atomic disintegrating garbage collector.
The father is thinking about a problem.
Although medical scientists have said that in the early days, there is more than a 15% chance of cure for this infectious disease.
But the disease is terrifyingly contagious.
Bacteria are extremely viable.
Even if virus protection has reached P7 level, it may still leak and contaminate large areas.
If after twelve o'clock, the detector in my hand alarms, it means that I have become a carrier for the invaders to drop S bacteria.
Then I jumped into the atomic decomposition machine without hesitation.
I must not be a source of communication!
If it were my wife or daughter...
I just...
Come in with her!
Ding.
Arrived at twelve o'clock.
2520 The Gregorian New Year's bell rings.
Nothing happened.
At the end of January 2520, medical scientists and biologists held a large online meeting, and came to a conclusion after a comprehensive evaluation.
S bacteria missed an appointment.
The prophecy of the sage Chen Feng seems to have gone wrong.
Some were relieved, while others were more nervous.
After the negotiation of the budding world government high-level meeting, Hua Zhongyun said in a heavy tone.
"We made a mistake. The reason why Master Chen Feng encrypted the information of S bacteria and set it to be automatically unlocked on January 1, 2520 must have his consideration."
"If we cracked it ahead of time, it might be discovered by the intruder and cause the other party to change their strategy. Now we have indeed taken action in advance, completed the popularization of the vaccine, and also done the quarantine in advance. All this has been discovered. So we What we have to face now is an unknown crisis.”
"We err in the end because of kindness. I'm sorry everyone."
In fact, there have been disputes and disagreements about this matter for a long time.
The leaders of scientists, soldiers, politicians and other fields have their own opinions. The conclusion of the debate is that even if Master Chen Feng has metaphors and considerations, most people are still unwilling to take the huge risk that may cause at least billions of people to die. .
As long as they can be saved, who wants to watch their compatriots die coldly?
Once people become greedy, they can easily make mistakes.
The price of mistakes is a new crisis, a mass extinction.
January 2544, a cold winter in the northern hemisphere and a midsummer in the southern hemisphere.
A silent change begins.
I don't know how the compound eyes who control everything by remote control are observing the situation in the solar system, and how much information can be obtained.
In short, the compound eyes discovered that "Song of the World" was ineffective, and after the S bacteria faced antibodies at the beginning, they changed their strategy again.
The full controllable energy within the solar system barrier is activated again.
The Compound Eyes have once again dropped a new strain of bacteria.
This small individual bacterium is no match for the human immune system at all, and has low reproductive capacity in the human body.
So this bacteria is completely harmless to humans and safer than E. coli.
But it reproduces extremely well in animals.
The bacteria are equally non-lethal to animals and can even coexist well.
This trait is universal and applies to all animals, including invertebrates and vertebrates, except humans.
Later generations named it Z bacteria.
The definition of Z is taken from wisdom.
Z bacteria are also known as intelligent bacteria.
A single Z-bacteria is not intelligent, but when the Z-bacteria grows in a body with more than 10,000 individuals, the situation will change.
Z bacteria with a certain scale will concentrate in the central nervous system of these animals and attach to their neurons, quietly completing parasitic assimilation.
Reusing the original neural links in the animal's central nervous system, the individuals of Z bacteria form a relationship with each other.
Then, a Z-bacteria swarm intelligence similar to the human brain, but with much less complexity, will sprout from this strongly related group.
The result reflected in the outside is that this life without intelligence has become an individual with intelligence.
The essence embodied in the interior is the combination of countless Z bacteria individuals to form group wisdom.
Even if the level of this intelligence is still very low, it is still a qualitative change compared to the various animals themselves.
When brain intelligence changed, the changes didn't stop.
It may be to match the consumption of the central nervous system after possessing intelligence, or it may be the genetic instinct of Z bacteria. The body structure of the infected individual will reawaken the instinct of rapid division and directional gene expression. The process of Similar to the process from embryo to mature individual, but much more complex.
After this process is completed, the infected animal undergoes dramatic changes, taking on properties that are impossible for life on Earth.
Infected individuals may gain a larger body size to support more Z bacteria and gain higher intelligence, or may maintain their original body size and only maintain basic intelligence.
This brand new animal has been named extinct.
When Chen Feng saw this text description in his historical review, the first thing that came to his mind was the Dragonfly fighter of the invaders.
Thinking of the lethality of that thing made his scalp tingle.
It's really fun.
This time, the compound-eyed man has zoomed in and took out the stuff at the bottom of the press box.
Let the 26th century face the Dragonfly?
Is there a chance of victory?
No!
Just one Dragonfly is enough to completely destroy the entire human civilization in the twenty-sixth century!
The technological generation difference between the two sides is too great. At that time, it is impossible for any human weapon to cause any harm to the Dragonfly.
Maybe a dragonfly fighter can't destroy an entire civilization in an instant, but in a closed solar system space, it can be like a death god, sweeping and harvesting a city, an area, and a planet bit by bit.
Given the Dragonfly a few decades, it can kill 37 billion people one by one.
There is nowhere to run, everyone can only slaughter ~IndoMTL.com~ Continuing to read, Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, it is a secondary transformation based on the original animals of the earth. There will be some improvements, but the potential is not enough to support the height of the Dragonfly fighter.
However, this is not to be underestimated.
Extinct animals have both intelligence and incredible biological weapon structure. Needless to say, the lethality to human beings.
What's more insidious is that this time the invaders still used the idea of dormant outbreak, deliberately controlling the time node of Z bacteria outbreak.
In the beginning, the animals infiltrated by the Z bacteria did not show obvious changes in appearance, nor did their temperament change, but they continued to quietly increase their range of activities and spread the bacteria silently.
This lurking is extremely hidden and insidious.
Bacteria Z masquerades as a completely harmless common bacterium.
Even if some biologists discovered the clue, they did not realize its danger, and only regarded it as a new species that evolved naturally in the biological world.
This camouflage is not difficult. As long as the genetic information of the Z bacteria deliberately controls the number of populations in a single cell, it will not show any intelligence characteristics.
At the level of human biological knowledge, almost no one would have thought that there would really be some kind of bacteria in the universe. After reaching a population of 10,000, group wisdom could suddenly be born, and it could even support up to 20 billion bacteria. How about a huge population, forming a complete intelligence that is not inferior to human beings?
Super biologist Lai Wenming discovered the presence of Z bacteria in a dragonfly as early as 2546, but even he didn't realize it.
He deliberately cultivated a small group of Z bacteria with a total of 10 billion.
But Lai Wenming was also deceived by Z-Shadow Emperor-level "playing crazy and selling stupid".
Fourteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.
