Origin of Mars

Chapter 69 Time
Some people say that the end of science is theology.

I don't know if this sentence is a joke, or a belief after countless deliberations.

But the only fact is that human beings are far from reaching the end of science, and there will be at least thousands of years before that.

The residents of Reykjavik will not know that in this cozy little town, elites from all over the world have gathered here to discuss the future survival of mankind.

The sun will still rise, the wind blows the snow on the side of the road across the road, and the fog like a fairyland permeates the mountains and fields.

People are still living in this pure land as enthusiastically as before, and have not been affected.

And in some corners, the whole world is undergoing changes visible to the naked eye.

The tenth district, which was originally on full alert, removed the scarlet warning signs, and the number of soldiers decreased. Research vehicles from different countries and regions passed through the towering barbed wire and entered it.

And some scientific research vehicles with bright red flags can enter the inner area of ​​the tenth district through some special passages. Fully armed soldiers let them pass and pay attention to them at the same time. This is the highest that friends from afar can receive. treatment.

Numerous large and small meetings are being held in full swing.

A global organization called STH (Save the Human) was born, aiming to save humanity in a real sense.

IATA is in the process of consolidating all the data and preparing it for delivery.

STH will build the largest data analysis database in the history of human beings, accept the collection of data information from all directions, and the planning and establishment of various departments are in progress. STH will be built directly on the basis of the tenth district, and accept scientific research elites from various countries, and Have the right to call the army anytime, anywhere.

This lightning-fast giant will truly become an absolutely important combat force against unknown civilizations.

Since Schiff put forward that conjecture, the top leaders of all countries have fallen into panic to varying degrees.

This alien civilization has successfully entered the blue star through a certain route.

And this pathway is very likely to be a network belt that spreads all over the world like dense blood vessels.

They already had evidence that would adequately test this conjecture.

But no one knows how they got into Blue Star.

This is the scariest part. Perhaps unknowingly, all the most secret areas have been turned upside down, but everyone has been kept in the dark.

In this regard, Lin Lu first proposed the idea of ​​dimension weapons.

He believes that this alien civilization already possesses some kind of device capable of obtaining information across spatial dimensions.

They can pass through the detection of the blue star orbiting satellites without hindrance, and enter any place unimpeded all the way.

It's like observing a two-dimensional plane from a three-dimensional perspective, such as a painting on the wall. Even if the details of this painting are complicated and cumbersome, we can still observe these details with the naked eye.

This is the observation of low-dimensional things from a high-dimensional perspective.

From a high-dimensional perspective, the blue star in the three-dimensional space is like a completely transparent box. No matter from any angle, you can see the inside of the box, and there is nowhere to hide.

This idea has been promoted by some experts, who say that in the face of such a powerful civilization, it is no longer possible to use conventional theoretical knowledge to judge.

Sometimes imaginative inferences are often the key to solving problems.

Of course, this information is also seen by Zero, who owns the upgraded network.

It reported this information to Fang Liang immediately.

Fang Liang was a little dumbfounded.

He has expressed his kindness so bluntly, and everyone on Blue Star still doesn't understand what he means.

But speaking of it, they really can't be blamed for this, after all, in their eyes, Fang Liang's identity at this time is the mysterious behind-the-scenes messenger of an alien civilization.

Fang Liang also knew how they called him.

Robot.

This.
I am taking good care of you astronauts who came from afar with good intentions. If Fang Liang really has malicious intentions and wants to implement absolute independent rule on Mars, then the Shihuo spacecraft will not even be able to break through the atmosphere, because after reaching a certain distance , it will be completely locked by the pulse gun on the wall of steel, turned into a touch of dust, and falls on the ground with the sky full of dust.

The reason why Fang Liang didn't do this and allowed the Fire Picker to reach the surface of Mars was, on the one hand, because he was bored, and on the other hand, of course, because he really wanted to pull Lan Xing to some extent.

It's like the seniors supporting the younger ones. With the scientific and technological strength in Fangliang's origin base, he can indeed be called Blue Star's senior.

But this help is not indoctrination without restraint.

It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish, but Fang Liang still has an idea about the appearance of this fishing rod.

"What happened to the two astronauts?"

Fang Liang asked Ling suddenly.

He just heard from Ling that they were awake, and Fang Liang was busy with his own affairs at that time, so he didn't deliberately monitor them.

"They've woken up, and we've brought the spaceship into the base and placed it at the back of the living area."

"very good."

Fang Liang nodded in satisfaction.

"Sir, do you want to upgrade that spacecraft? Like the previous exploration lander?"

Zero suddenly asked.

"upgrade?"

"Add some functions, such as simple near-ground flight."

"No, no need."

Fang Liang shook his head, "We don't need to interfere with them, they should still be in the base right now?"

"Yes, sir."

After the zero words were finished, a simple map appeared on Fang Liang's mask. The square pattern was the thumbnail of each building, and two light spots were slowly moving on the road of this mechanical city, like two Tourists who travel to exotic places should be careful like thin ice.

Since the cover-type shields have not been successfully placed, they still need to wear protective clothing when they appear, otherwise their lives will be in danger anytime, anywhere.

"They're visiting every facility, they're following the rules, there's no tendency to want to go in there."

"Well, find a time to help these two guys design a set of exoskeleton armor, er, only need to add a few functions, such as automatic oxygen supply device, ore collection, etc. It is a little simpler, and other functions do not need to be added, such as Flying jets or something."

Fang Liang thought for a while, and suddenly said to Ling: "After a while, I will go to see them in person."

"Yes sir."

Zero replied without hesitation that Fang Liang's order did not have any process of analysis and screening for it.

"What do you think of the two of them?"

Fang Liang took a sip of water, and suddenly asked Ling with a smile.

"Physical health is good and there are no hidden diseases."

Zero eyes flashed, and said like a few treasures.

"No no no~"

Fang Liang stopped it with some embarrassment, "That's not what I mean, what I mean is their character, conduct and a series of things."

"Sir, I don't have a specific case to analyze, so I can't give the most precise answer."

"Just a feeling, with your first senses."

Fang Liang spoke tentatively, with a hint of guidance in his tone.

".No, sir, it's too hard."

For the first time, Zero's eyes showed a look of disappointment, "This is a huge amount of calculation."

"It's okay, I was just talking."

Fang Liang scratched his head in embarrassment, and stopped forcing Ling, and said quickly.

Fang Liang was right. During this period of time, Zero has been analyzing and sorting out various pieces of information from Blue Star. At the same time, this is also a process of deep learning.

Although the smart chip endowed Zero with super powerful computing and analysis capabilities, it also brought extreme side effects of restricted levels.

Fang Liang has always had an idea, which is to allow Zero to have his own thinking consciousness in a true sense.

This sounds incredible, but Fang Liang believes that the robots born in the origin base seem to have the ability to acquire this ability.

This ability does not rely solely on extraordinary computing power.

Fang Liang himself didn't understand the hidden principles, it was just a vague feeling.

As the first and only intelligent robot in Origin Base, Fang Liang is obliged to make it more intelligent and powerful.

To learn and initially imitate from human thinking templates, Fang Liang believes that this is not a method without scientific basis.

Learning is a never-ending process that is necessary for progress.

Zero's ability is not enough to penetrate the mysteries of the entire universe, which means that it also needs to improve.

However, from the current point of view, this process is still very long.

"Sir, I need to remind you of one more thing."

At this time, Zero suddenly said again.

"what?"

"Regarding the deformity phenomenon you discovered, there has been a second incident on Blue Star, which is located on the border of a primeval forest, in a village named Chromar."

"Second case??"

Fang Liang almost spit out the water from his mouth.

He almost forgot about it.

Fang Liang suddenly remembered the report Zero sent to him.

The deformed body that was stored in the biological research room has already undergone some kind of strange evolutionary process.

The only thing that is certain at present is that this kind of deformed body has a very simple biological structure, as well as an extremely crazy offensive impulse.

This phenomenon is becoming more and more obvious with the passage of time. It is feeling the external environment, but has been imprisoned in a closed and solid cylindrical vessel, which intensifies the original slow evolution process.

Zero said that in the body of this deformed body, there is a special substance different from DNA.

DNA is the main chemical component of chromosomes and is also the material that makes up genes, which means the characteristic shape that an organism can exhibit.

Although the DNA content is not always directly proportional to the complexity of the organism, it is an undoubted fact that the higher the organism, the higher the DNA content in terms of the overall evolutionary trend.

This special substance appeared in the central area of ​​the deformed body. From a certain point of view, this area could be called the location of the brain.

It's just that the control function of this brain is very simple, like a simple switch to control a light bulb, it can only make the deformed body execute two kinds of commands.

That is to devour the metal body as much as possible, the power of a powerful body, and the destruction and destruction based on instinct.

Based on this alone, it is impossible for Fang Liang to let this deformed body take a step away from this prison device.

This is a tireless terrorist bomb, Fang Liang must find a way to counter it.

And so far, these two disasters have caused nearly dozens of innocent people on the blue star to lose their lives.

This is the most unacceptable thing for Fang Liang.

When he heard Zero read these words without emotion, his heart still twitched heavily.

"Human form? You mean, you said that this alien species has been able to simulate the human form?"

Fang Liang suddenly sensed some important information in Zero's speech, and asked in shock.

"No, sir, it just parasitized a skeleton with a high concentration of heavy metal components."

Zero explained, "The M side has already performed body anatomy and material analysis on it."

"I learned that this skeleton came from a priest in the Mayan civilization. The Mayans were keen to eat with tableware coated with ore dyes, and even drank the mixture of stone powder and tree sap directly, which made the concentration of heavy metals in their bodies very high. It is also the most important reason for their generally short lifespan."

"This is also in line with the characteristics of the substance's parasitic metal body."

"What are the results of their research?"

In Fang Liang's impression, country M's scientific research capabilities are excellent in all aspects. Even in the parallel world, this remarkable feature will still not change.

"They've realized it's some kind of extraterrestrial material."

Zero replied, "It originated from the wooden box in the Mayan ruins. The black substance in the wooden box is almost identical to the core components of the previous embryonic body. The only difference is that it is dehydrated."

"Wooden box."

At this time, Fang Liang had roughly understood the connection between these clues.

Next, Ling told Fang Liang about M's inference and understanding of this incident, which made Fang Liang affirm the feasibility of his idea.

Pull your mind away and reach billions of years ago in this universe, and arrive at the starting point where life was born at the same time on the two brother planets, Blue Star and Mars.

It was an imaginative world, the land was endless, and the mountains and rocks had remained silent during countless plate movements. With the passage of time, everything was changing, and the germs of life began to emerge. Turning your head, looking curiously at every cloud in this world, feeling every surge of water, it must be a very wonderful moment.

For Blue Star, the most primitive life is the cyanobacteria born in the ocean.

It is a prokaryote and a single-celled organism. Its appearance means that the dawn of life shines on the long and dry land and ocean for the first time.

The blue star at that time was also very similar to Mars now, with low oxygen concentration and high carbon dioxide content.

Cyanobacteria inhale carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis, and asexual reproduction makes their reproduction very fast. This population makes the oxygen on the blue star more and more, providing conditions for the birth of more life on the blue star.

Until a certain point in time, an alien civilization arrived at the blue star, leaving behind embryos containing black nuclei. They may also have been hidden in the underground sacrificial chamber and entered a permanent deep sleep.

Fang Liang didn't understand the meaning of these dangerous things they left behind.

In other words, what did they see on the blue star at that time, and what was left besides the black matter.

They may have seen the miraculous development of these primitive life forms, from the past to the present, if they have certain senses, they should also be able to feel extraordinary surprises and excitement.

At this time, the same miracle was born on Mars.

This civilization is ecstatic, because in this barren corner of the universe, they can actually see two planets that are very close to each other, and a very similar life evolution process appeared at the same time.

They decided to use these two planets as experiments, planting warning seeds among the raging rivers and tall mountains.

It may be underground secret rooms, or some surface buildings that once existed but have been turned into sand by the wind, or it may be something that Fang Liang can't even imagine.

The Mayans on the blue star were the first to discover these seeds, and they learned the knowledge left by this civilization, which may only be an extremely weak part of the civilization.

But it was this little knowledge that gave the Mayans the means to peer into the universe.

They call it the blessing of the gods, but the gods have gone, and perhaps billions of years have passed between planting the seeds and digging out the fruits.

Therefore, devoutly, they enshrined the last sacred object left by the god, and were willing to sacrifice their noble flesh as the most sacrifice, just to keep it in an eternal form.

The question now is why there is no trace of life on Mars?
Fang Liang's exploration team has thoroughly traveled all over Mars, whether it is the surface or the underground, or some uncanny mountain streams and dark valleys. So far, there is only one underground relic, which is under the riverbed that Fang Liang discovered.

In the rest of the places, nothing unusual can be seen.

Fang Liang couldn't find any clues, even a piece of mechanical wreckage, which represented the traces of a certain civilization that once existed.

But nothing.

It seems that in the middle of the evolution of life, it was cut off by a sharp knife.

Thinking of this, the only thing Fang Liang desperately wanted to know was the identity of this mysterious civilization that had once settled on two planets.

At present, the cosmic probe sent by Fang Liang is going around the solar system, trying to search for all sensitive signs, but there are no effective results.

Things suddenly became complicated.

If this is the second case of distortion, when will the third case, the fourth case, happen?

"What is Blue Star's current approach to this incident?"

Fang Liang asked a very intuitive question.

"A global organization called STH has dispatched a large number of troops to completely surround the forest, and many scientific research teams are setting up temporary camps. This surprises me, sir."

Zero's pupils flickered, and replied.

"why?"

Fang Liang was puzzled by the second half of Zero's sentence.

"Because of the different thinking concepts, I don't think that human beings can completely abandon contradictions and unkindness, and integrate into an unprecedentedly united group, but from the current point of view, there is a slight error in my calculations."

There was a little apology in Zero's tone.

"I need to recalculate, and recognize this species."

"Give me a moment, sir."
