If human beings encounter this situation, there are undoubtedly only a few things they can do.
The first is to eliminate all the culprits - the world tree.
A planet is indeed very large, but for the level of human science and technology, it just takes more hands and feet. It is not particularly difficult to completely exterminate a creature.
But this giant plant, as an important part of the ecological chain, can even be said to exist as a pillar. If it is completely eliminated, there is no doubt that it will directly lead to the extinction of organisms, and countless animals and insects will starve to death.
In this way, the final result seems to be no different. Even because of human intervention, the mass extinction occurred in advance.
Ichiro Yamamoto explained: "if this happens on earth, even if the creatures are extinct, as long as humans can live, this plan can be implemented. But Riley star, Riley people are equal to other lives. We don't need to destroy most lives to save Riley people. "
Many of the audience below nodded, which was true.
"Unless human beings can create a plant that can replace the 'World Tree', destroy a world tree and then plant a substitute, so as to ensure the ecological balance. However, there is no doubt that the quantity of this project is much larger. "
"Besides, the content involved in creating a new plant is quite complex. It doesn't mean that creation can be created. This plant has to replace the function of the world tree in all aspects, including providing a large amount of food, including the habitat of species and so on. "
The second method is to cultivate microorganisms that can decompose the "tree heart" to fundamentally solve the problem.
The molecular formula of this "tree heart" is a bit like human plastics. It is not impossible to cultivate corresponding decomposers by genetic engineering.
But another problem, the large-scale introduction of a modified microorganism, will undoubtedly have a significant impact on native organisms.
Let's not talk about whether these microorganisms will mutate and whether they will lead to the disease and extinction of native organisms
"If these artificially transformed lives multiply in the new environment and decompose the original accumulated" tree heart ", then the oxygen in the atmosphere will be consumed, the concentration of carbon dioxide will rise sharply, and the whole ecological environment will be destroyed."
"For such a long time, there is indeed a lot of carbon buried underground... If a large amount is consumed, it is also a troublesome thing."
"These are the difficulties we are facing at present. Although the life and death of the Riley people and the mass extinction of species on this planet have little to do with us, it is indeed quite... Well, an interesting topic. There are probably more civilizations in the universe, which are in such a chronic death. "
"Therefore, we intend to personally go to Riley for a more detailed scientific investigation."
Yamamoto looked expectantly at Zhang Yuan.
To put it bluntly, they just want to go to that planet for field research.
Anyway, human beings will stay here for several years. It's a little... Itchy not to go down in person.
"Well, you write a formal report first, which is a big topic... Mass extinction?" Zhang Yuan pondered for a while and soon agreed.
These guys can always find this kind of very strange and persuasive reasons.
After discussing these issues, everyone left the room with a trace of boredom and excitement.
Since there is no good way for a while and a half, no one will come to worry about the fate of Riley people thousands of years later.
After all, the whole extinction time is still thousands of years, which is too long. It is so long that human beings themselves do not necessarily continue to exist in this world.
Therefore, in principle, human beings will not stay here for decades or centuries, nor will they stop their steps to observe the mass extinction.
However, this mass extinction still made Zhang slightly uncomfortable.
Science and technology are not omnipotent. Without science and technology, we can't do anything.
The universe itself is not a place of truth, goodness and beauty. Supernova explosions, meteorite disasters, supervolcanic eruptions and various similar disasters have killed many civilizations that have not yet developed. Even, as long as the stars shake, the ice age can take a civilization away.
If Riley people were not so backward, there would be no development for tens of millions of years, and such chronic death would not happen.
"Even if there is a mass extinction, as long as there is enough scientific and technological strength, self-protection is more than enough."
"Even they don't know it. This is the saddest thing."
Zhang Yuan shook his head and soon threw the matter behind him, focusing on the upgrading and construction of Kunlun Mountain itself
A year passed quickly, and all geographical, biological and trading activities came to an end temporarily.
Among them, the most popular is the religious culture of Riley civilization and the extinction of species that will last for 10 million years. In particular, the latter has triggered public debate!
Some people are trying to save this kind of extinction.
There are many such posts on the post bar: "all species of Riley star need to be saved, and Riley people need to be saved. Although we can't help them here for a long time, at least let them know the fact that they are slowly disappearing... "
But it's no use saying such things. For Riley civilization, which has not yet possessed science and technology, even if it is told what will happen in the future, it can't understand what oxygen, carbon dioxide and carbon cycle are? They can't understand!
Finally, these kind-hearted people can only tell them: "the gods will perish in ten million years."
It's easy to understand!
But Riley people don't care. Ten million years is too long, far beyond the life cycle, and there is no ashes left long ago. Who will worry about the disaster 10 million years later? Even mankind itself will not worry about the problem 10 million years later
Therefore, after some useless work, some people think that this is a natural elimination. Why should humans be full and meddling?
The life of a planet cannot be completely extinct in a catastrophe. In the future, species that can decompose the "tree heart of the world" will eventually evolve. With higher concentration of oxygen and a large number of fossil resources, a new life explosion will be generated after the mass extinction!
Maybe a new intelligent race will be born on this planet to replace these Riley people who will never make progress?
Such a debate makes Kunlun mountain full of vitality. Humans themselves are creatures willing to judge the fate of other species. In comparison, people are full of energy because of their sense of superiority in morality and science and technology.
At the same time, cultural workers are trying to restore the aboriginal life in the virtual world and promote the tourism in the virtual space.
Well, don't worry too much about anti addiction in this regard. Even Zhang Yuan himself doesn't believe that human beings will be brainwashed by the religion of Riley civilization. If such people do appear, they can only be said to be mentally retarded.
……
On this day, a big project in the virtual world on the 12th was completed, and everyone in the office was shouting and celebrating.
"Hahaha, look at this world tree village. It's an elf living in the forest!" The programmer patted the table heavily and was satisfied with his results.
"Well, about the lifestyle of Riley civilization... The LORD God ebekanya created the whole world through the raging flame... The God of water nurtured the Riley people, the God of fire... Burn, flame! It's like an online game. I think if you don't want to make some monsters, you can really make it into a game mode. Although we can only enter the virtual space for 15 days every six months, we can play games on computers or mobile phones to interact with the world! "
"... in your spare time, you can enter the game and have a real experience. This sense of achievement is not covered!"
This program ape simply spit, and his face is like a red balloon.
Not to mention, this online game related to the virtual world is being discussed at a meeting. As long as the anti addiction is done well, there is no problem.
One of the young people shouted, "ah, later, later. It's a headache and needs a rest."
"Holiday! to be on holiday! Holiday! "
"Fall in love, Wu Peng, look at your monkey hurry!"
The young man said goodbye to his colleagues, secretly ran to the lovers' restaurant and passionately kissed his beloved girl.
"Is the work done?" Asked the girl.
"Yes, it's just the first phase. There is a three-day holiday, but I'm going to put two days behind and rest together! " Wu Peng was very happy to order a ground blue melon. This fruit has the feeling of watermelon and grape, but the output is not high and the price is a little expensive.
"I've heard that the latest blue gourd is delicious. It's a newly cultivated plant. What would you like to eat? "
"It's so expensive. Don't order it! You can save some money and buy a virtual world tour... "
"This project is completed, there is a large bonus!" Wu Peng laughed. Virtual world tourism can be said to be a very popular thing. Although he is a cultural worker in the virtual world, working in front of the computer is different from entering the real world.
"This planet is experiencing a mass extinction, and biologists don't think of any way... The creatures on this planet are so poor."
Wu Peng licked his dry lips. "I heard from my colleagues that the Institute of biology over there established two working groups in the name of studying the atmosphere, and about 200 people participated in this project. The government has also allocated some funds. "
"However, we are not too optimistic."
