Chapter 382.1

Just as the saliva of these experts was flying, Li Zhendong, an expert in Informatics, stood up and expressed his unique opinions.

"Don't get too excited, professor. How can I be a little skeptical? Enlightener civilization, let's just call it Is it really a civilization full of goodwill? "

He spread his hands and questioned: "Riley civilization is a very old religious civilization. Brilliant culture, including writing and language, was born a million years ago. It's really a long time since it stagnated and has been in a stable state. If it goes on like this, there will probably be no progress. But what is the purpose of the world tree planted by the enlightenment civilization? Can it promote the development of Riley civilization

"You know, this species can cause a mass extinction!"

"I even feel that we have over interpreted the incident. The enlightener just wants to turn all the carbon elements of the planet into this organic matter similar to coal by using the world tree, and then harvest it once. "

"We already have the relevant universal knowledge that organic matter is more valuable than ordinary metals in the market! For a more advanced civilization, as long as the core resources can be exploited, the metal elements, including all kinds of rare earth elements, are inexhaustible. But organic matter is different. There is only a thin layer on the surface of the planet. There is no need to want more! "

"It's more cost-effective and efficient to collect organic matter by using biotechnology like this!"

He said with great emotion: "it's a big deal to harvest a planet at one time! Maybe not just this one, but Countless stars! Including the former earth, but the plan on earth may not succeed. "

There was a moment and a half of silence in the conference room. Zhang Yuan even felt his hair stand up, from good to evil, as if it was just a moment of Kung Fu.

Soon, Li Zhendong's conjecture triggered a big wave!

People think that if this civilization is really "evil", then

Have they done anything to human beings and the earth?

The meeting room will be quiet for a while and a half.

The biologist hesitated for a moment and said, "I still feel that the enlightenment civilization is full of goodwill to Riley civilization. Professor Li, if you want to carry out this kind of plan that will last for millions or even tens of millions of years, you should choose a planet rich in carbon to carry out experiments, right

Li Zhendong nodded, "indeed The starting point is very important. "

The biologist continued: "however, the carbon content of Riley is not high, just a little more than that of the earth. According to you, you should choose a planet similar to Venus, whose surface is full of carbon dioxide, so as to maximize the benefits. Why did the illuminator choose Riley? It's not worth it at all

Li Zhendong reddened his neck and said in a loud voice: "they may have laid out countless planets. It's not necessary to consider whether they are worth it or not. It's like we use a large seeder to plant seeds in the field. It doesn't matter whether the seed can germinate or not, as long as it can grow plants. It doesn't matter if the harvest is less. Do you think about the harvest of a certain wheat plant? "

"But why hasn't the earth been harvested? And Venus, Mars

"Because this kind of plan can't be 100% successful. Are alien species wiped out by native species? Or climate disasters, the elimination of alien species! Oh, by the way, don't you think the evolution of life in Australia is very strange? Maybe aliens did it? " Li Zhendong has a big brain hole.

"Professor Li, the species in Australia have fossils from millions of years ago. The time node is not right."

Just as they were arguing about this, Zhang Yuan suddenly said, "listen to me first. First of all, if you transform the civilization of the world tree, it's really the" enlightener civilization "that glitzer civilization encountered. Judging from what they did, it won't be particularly malicious."

"Because the glitzer civilization is clearly documented, the enlighteners let them know the existence of science and the existence of electricity."

"Secondly, if you want to use biotechnology, fix carbon, and use the most prolific microorganisms, such as algae, the efficiency is much higher than that of the world tree?"

"If this civilization is really strong enough, it should not be a problem to develop such microorganisms. It is not a tall plant like the world tree. Although the final effect is the same, there is no doubt that the efficiency is lower than a little bit."

Li Zhendong was thoughtful and didn't speak, which is hard to explain. If forced to believe that a more advanced civilization can not develop such microorganisms, it will only make people laugh. Even he does not believe it.

Everyone gradually calmed down, a little relieved.

If an interstellar civilization wants to exploit materials, there is no need to modify the genes of local species according to local conditions.

"If it has great malice, it can directly develop one or more kinds of super microorganisms, eliminate all animals and plants, and then reproduce without restriction. There's no need for the Rileys to keep them alive, and there's no need for variables. "In this way, the efficiency is tens of thousands of times higher than the simple world tree. The world tree's species extinction plan, which can only be completed in tens of millions of years, can be completed in hundreds of years by using super microorganisms

Zhang Yuan said: "in fact, everyone, think about it carefully, I still think that the enlightener newspaper has a certain goodwill. The world tree in this world is not necessarily bad for Riley civilization. "

"First, the world tree provides a lot of food and living space. At least in ancient times, with a shelter from the wind and rain, the possibility of starvation and freezing death was much less. Without the world tree, their population will be much smaller, and the development of civilization will be more difficult. Where can they be so comfortable now? "

"Second, the world tree provides very good building materials. The performance of this kind of tree core is comparable to that of steel bars in the 20th century, and it is not easy to rot and be oxidized by air. This kind of biomaterial can still be used in the 20th century or the 21st century! "

"It's not hard for us to understand how much convenience this will bring to development. Whether it's infrastructure construction or building houses, even steel bars can be saved."

Many people nodded. When civilization was underdeveloped, there was a high-performance material that could replace steel. What a huge advantage.

Steel is the cornerstone of civilization and industrialization. The industrial process of almost all industrialized countries begins with steel smelting. Without steel, there will be no other industrial products, no tall buildings, no guns, trucks and ships.

If "steel" could grow in the field in the early stage of civilization development, its convenience is of course self-evident.

"Oh, by the way, and the third point, because the emergence of the world tree, fixed more carbon elements, the whole world has more fossil resources! If the Riley civilization really developed modern science and technology, it would be thanks to these fossil resources. Who doesn't want to have more fossil fuels at the beginning of civilization? "

"It's a gift from heaven. Can earth civilization develop modern civilization without fossil fuels? No! Not even the first industrial revolution can be produced! "
