Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 373 Complete Reasoning

Just when people had a huge disagreement on whether to "escape", Yu Yifeng suddenly thought of something else. He looked directly at Hei who was sitting in the corner: "Let me ask you, in the universe, is this kind of Gaia creature with self-awareness very rare? Can it be cultivated artificially?"

Hei was stunned. He still hasn't calmed down his panic, but isn't Yu Yifeng's question obvious?

If it can be cultivated in batches, Gaia creatures can't have such a huge value, but one for each interstellar civilization...

However, he still bit the bullet and said: "Yes... yes, Gaia creatures with self-awareness are completely pieced together by various coincidences, and it is quite difficult to replicate... ... "

It's embarrassing, this trembling voice is too embarrassing, Hei twisted his thigh viciously, and he trembled violently in pain, but the following words were much smoother.

"This kind of creature is rare on a galactic scale, much rarer than interstellar civilization! The most critical thing is... to give birth to 'self-awareness', this step is crucial."

"As for artificial cultivation... impossible! Not impossible... to cultivate a Gaia creature with self-awareness, it requires a very high level of technology, it is much more complicated than ordinary life! At least L4 is definitely not possible, L5 is not possible... S-level civilization... I have never seen an S-level civilization."

Hearing this, Yu Yifeng's tone was a little anxious, and he continued to ask: "Then... what about that kind of collective life without self-awareness, is it rare?"

"Well..."

He thought about it and said hesitantly : "Collective life without 'self-awareness'... should not be surprising, for example, bee colonies, ant colonies... these groups have a certain degree of wisdom and can adjust automatically, but they do not have self-awareness."

"Even the entire planet is an organic whole, and it also has a certain degree of self-regulation!"

"So, there is nothing strange about biological groups without self-awareness!"

"That's right!"

Yu Yifeng suddenly showed a glimmer of hope in his eyes. He slapped the table again and said loudly: "Everyone calm down and think carefully, how long has this UFO stayed here?"

"Thirty thousand years!" When he said this, he emphasized it loudly.

"So I think the UFO is probably just an unmanned research spacecraft, controlled by artificial intelligence! This algae collective 30,000 years ago did not have true self-awareness, but was just a relatively common collective organism in the universe."

"Although it is a bit large and has some value, it cannot be said to be extremely rare... Is that right?"

"So, these aliens conducted research for a while based on this idea, and left behind an unmanned exploration spacecraft... Maybe they will leave some observation facilities for every planet with potential value?!"

Hei thought about it and immediately interrupted excitedly "That's possible... no, it's very possible! When we were traveling in the interstellar space before, we often threw things around... ejected observation equipment to continue tracking."

"Captain Yu is right, the probability of an unmanned UFO is very high. After all, it is unlikely that a crazy advanced civilization will stay in this remote place for 30,000 years. Of course, this pile of algae still has some potential... so they threw a larger unmanned UFO for continuous observation."

"This logic is feasible!"

"But why don't these aliens directly capture this collective algae?" Someone asked in confusion.

After the initial panic, everyone's mood has calmed down a little. After all, most people here have experienced death crises and have a stronger psychological tolerance.

Yu Yifeng waved his hand and said, "Because they clearly know that they have no ability to cultivate a real Gaia creature, it is better to let nature take its course..."

"After all, it is very difficult to give birth to self-awareness. It may require many opportunities and a series of coincidences. Or maybe... it will not succeed for hundreds of millions of years!"

Everyone stared at Yu Yifeng, not knowing what he was trying to say.

"What I mean is..."

Yu Yifeng spread his hands and said loudly, "Since it is just a wide-ranging action, perhaps their large forces do not attach much importance to this planet!"

"It has been 30,000 years! Think about it, 30,000 years, will their fleet stay in this ghost place? From a probability perspective, their large forces will not be very close to here..."

"So we may have more time!"

This reason is not very sufficient, but it makes everyone breathe a sigh of relief, because Yu Yifeng's idea makes sense.

Yes, if 30,000 years have really passed, and the other party does not attach much importance... Will the other party's large forces still wander around this planet for such a long time?

For ordinary interstellar civilizations, 30,000 years is not a short time!

Therefore, the probability that the other party is nearby is very low!

"But the premise is that the time record of the Dig people is correct..."

"This damn Dig civilization... has no serious history! Maybe the so-called 30,000 years is only 3,000 years or 10,000 years?" Dr. Rambo suddenly questioned: "So Captain, this safety reason is not sufficient!"

Yu Yifeng frowned and thought: "Perhaps, we should deduce the reason for the incident."

This group of human elites used their brains and deduced the complete logic of this emergency in a few minutes.

Thirty thousand years ago, an alien research ship or a team of alien fleets visited this planet. They collected biological specimens or studied the indigenous society. In short, it was a series of scientific research activities...

After research, they found that the most valuable thing on this planet was this group of marine algae that might give birth to self-awareness... rather than the indigenous people who were caught in cannibalism and crazy worship of gods.

"Or rather, the indigenous people were simply ignored by them. Because in this universe, intelligent life is not a big deal, they believe that the algae collective is more valuable than the indigenous people... After all, this algae collective has a small probability of evolving into Gaia creatures."

This unknown civilization obviously knew that the self-aware Gaia creatures were extremely valuable, so they sent an unmanned flying saucer to continuously observe these algae.

Of course, the algae collective at that time did not have any self-awareness... and they did not want to touch it. Since the birth of self-aware Gaia creatures is also a rare event on a galactic scale, the aliens would not have very high expectations...
