Chapter 586: It's Over

Controllable gene mutation evolution, life engineering is far more than one or two levels difficult than controllable nuclear fusion technology. The complex mechanisms and metabolic systems of living organisms are so coordinated and natural.

"Any small change in genes may cause earth-shaking changes to the human body from the inside out. If a brand new genetic blueprint is really redesigned, will such a 'human' still belong to humans?"

Ye Ziqiu just wanted to add something new to the human existing gene for life, for example, he wanted to try to transfer and copy the honeycomb cell division function on snake-like human organisms to the human body.

But to redesign a brand new genetic blueprint for humans, not to mention technical difficulties, does "human" still belong to humans by breaking and establishing a general move? This is a philosophical and ethical question. Are humans willing to accept it now?

"Survival of the fittest, Ziqiu, in order to avoid destruction in the vast universe in the future, human beings must make changes. In the past, they forced human beings to change through the interaction of the living environment, but now they are still the same. The difference is that they used to make changes passively, but now what we need to do is to actively seek change."

Li Chuan looked at the anatomical samples of snake-like people lying on the test bench in the isolation laboratory, and couldn't help feeling deeply. "Even if snake-like people take the initiative to seek change, they still cannot avoid the fate of destruction. What reason does human beings have to be self-satisfied? Like them? Take the initiative to seek change, continue to evolve, and sublimate civilization. Only by standing at the peak of civilization of all races can we truly avoid the fate of being destroyed by others. Just like the art of raising Gu, only the one who survives in the end can survive with peace of mind. This is the basic law of nature. Never forget this. It is cruel, but the most real."

"I understand." Ye Ziqiu nodded slowly.

"That's good. You don't need to consider the issue of ethics and morality. Find out what the first priority is. The survival of civilization is the premise of everything. If human beings are extinct, everything is meaningless. What kind of ethics and philosophy are there to talk about?" Li Chuan patted his shoulder and smiled.

"This is a big engineering topic, I think I should get into research as soon as possible, that..."

"Do research with peace of mind, don't worry about other things. I will fully support you, and Huasheng Group will fully support your research."

"Then I'll be relieved!"

...

Two years later, the Centaurus A-galaxy.

The smallest red dwarf in the star circle, Proxima Centauri, has been "disappeared" because it was completely "wrapped" by the Dyson ball structure a year ago.

Located in the airspace where A and B stars of Centaurus are located, a large number of "blackspots" have appeared in the orbits of these two massive stars. The two stars have been wrapped by the "Dyson Ball" giant structure and are still continuing.

At this time, another batch of space transport ships jumped here, and further accurately deployed the giant structure made of Zhong element materials to complete the "Dyson Ball".

Since Proxima Centauri was completely wrapped up by the "Dyson Ball", humans on Earth can be said to be inexhaustible for energy and use it inexhaustible. The era of real cosmic expansion has also begun with the ability to use Proxima Centauri energy.

...

Now, the entire β planet has become a frost land for eternal night, the ocean has been completely frozen, the temperature on the planet's surface has now exceeded minus one hundred degrees Celsius, and everything has long withered. Even the snake-like creature with the most tenacious vitality on this planet has died on a large scale due to the huge climate change, and this lethality is even more terrifying than nuclear strikes.

The GA18 position ended its artillery fire more than a year ago. Most of the ground troops have returned to the mothership one after another, leaving only a small group of less than 10,000 people left behind.

The current situation is that all the creatures visible to the naked eye on the surface of the planet are dead, and even microorganisms are dead on a large scale.

It seems that the creatures in this planet have completely extinct, but the stealth reconnaissance agents have not stopped searching. In the past two years, they have successively found 22 underground snake-like refuges, with a depth of more than 100,000 meters.

It is reasonable that the reconnaissance agents were able to find it so quickly. The planetary environment has changed drastically in the short term. Even if snake-like people can dig holes, they will not be able to dig so deep.

However, the original active volcano is a natural underground shelter. With the huge changes in the environment and the sudden drop in temperature, a large number of originally active volcanoes fell asleep in a very short time. The source of cooling magma from the core recedes, leaving a large area of ​​space.

Many of the remaining snake-like people rely on these natural underground spaces to build their shelters and struggle to survive. This is the biggest highlight of smart life. Snake-like people built an underground closed-loop ecosystem based on geothermal energy and volcanic caves. Although this ecosystem is very fragile, even if the temperature on the surface of the planet is extremely low, the deeper the core, the temperature will still reach the minimum requirement for survival.

But there are definitely more than 22 shelters for local snake-like indigenous creatures. Perhaps they had already started more than ten years ago, and it was impossible for humans to find these places. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. The reason why they have been discovered is because of the information of volcanic terrain as a reference.

The snake-like people in the volcanic shelter had no idea that they had been discovered by humans, but Li Chuan did not strike and destroy them, but instead took this opportunity to observe their survival and evolution in extreme environments.

It would be fine if you don’t look at it. Just throw a fist-sized tactical nuclear bomb in with your eyes closed and you’ll be done. This observation undoubtedly strengthens Li Chuan’s determination to completely eliminate them.

Because the self-continuous evolution and change of snakelike people is too prominent and their ability to adapt to the environment is too terrifying, they adapted to the hypoxia environment from an oxygen-rich environment in less than a year. This change is not gradually changed through reproduction, but changes made by living individuals in a short time, and a very small number of individuals have successfully evolved their ability to resist nuclear radiation.

Li Chuan really has ten thousand reasons to completely wipe out such species. At the same time, he is more looking forward to Ye Ziqiu's research, and Li Chuan himself has also devoted himself to it, because the ability of snake-like people is too perfect. If humans can obtain their evolutionary inheritance, it will definitely be a milestone progress in civilization.

"Enable fast, Womsky, lead the team to evacuate quickly. We are the last batch."

On the GA18 position, dozens of shuttles landed here. Finally, the 10,000 marines left in the defense zone entered the shuttle one after another. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The war was finally over and they could finally go home alive.

"What are you still standing there? Go back to the shuttle quickly. Do you want to stay here and be crushed by dozens of times the gravity?"

When a Marine retreated to the shuttle, she looked at the huge air traction machine, hanging a giant spherical structure and sent it into the tunnel. The communicator suddenly heard the angrily sound of the boss's head, and then she reacted and left.

"Wiff is in place and ready to evacuate!"

All shuttles set off and return to planetary orbit, and the huge excavation equipment slowly took off under reaction force. It cannot stay here. The next drilling operation is to go to Mars.

Interestingly, its first job is to destroy a planet, but the second time it is to transform a planet, perfectly interpreting the fact that technology is a double-edged sword.
