Vol 3 Chapter 382: Organic Harvester?

Just as the experts said that the spit was flying, Li Zhendong, an information expert, stood up and expressed a different opinion.

"Professor, don't get too excited first. Why am I a little skeptical, the enlightened civilization, for the time being ... is it really a civilization full of good intentions?"

He spread his hands and questioned: "The Riley civilization is a very ancient religious civilization, and a splendid culture has been born a million years ago, including words and languages. It has indeed been a long time since it stagnated and has been in a stable state. It ’s like this. It ’s likely that there will be no progress. But what did the enlightened civilization plant the 'world tree' for? Can it promote the development of Riley civilization? "

要 "You know, this species can cause a biological extinction!"

"I even feel that we over-understood the incident. The instigator just wanted to use all the carbon elements of this planet to make use of the world tree to turn into an organic matter similar to coal, and then harvest it all at once."

"We already have relevant common sense. Organic matter can be more valuable than ordinary metals in the trading market! For more advanced civilizations, as long as it can mine nuclear resources, metal elements are inexhaustible. Including all kinds of rare earth elements, they can be found everywhere in the deep core of the earth. But the organic matter is different. There is only a thin layer on the surface of the planet. I don't want more! "

"It's more cost-effective and effective to collect organic matter using such biotechnology!"

He said with great emotion: "It is really a big deal. It is a big deal to harvest a planet at once! Maybe not only this one, but ... numerous planets! Including the former Earth, but the plans on the Earth may not be successful. That's it. "

时 There will be silence in the meeting room at half past one. Zhang Yuan even felt that his hairs were erected, from goodness to evil, as if it was just a momentary effort.

Soon, Li Zhendong's conjecture even caused a stir!

People invariably think, if this civilization is really "evil", then ...

是否 Do they do anything to humans, to the earth?

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

The biologist hesitated for a moment, explaining: "I still feel that the enlightened civilization is full of goodwill for Riley civilization. Professor Li, if you want to implement this kind of culture that lasts for millions or even millions of years, Plan, you should choose a planet rich in carbon and experiment? "

振 Li Zhendong nodded. "Indeed ... the starting point is very important."

The biologist continued: "However, Riley's carbon content is not high, just a little more than Earth. According to you, you should choose a planet similar to Venus with all carbon dioxide on its surface. That's how you can maximize your benefits. Why should the instigator choose Riley Star? It's totally uneconomical! "

Li Zhendong shook his neck and said loudly: "They may also have laid out countless planets, which is not a cost-effective problem, and it is not necessary to consider. It is as if we use a large seeder to sow in the field. It does not matter whether this seed can germinate As long as you can grow a plant. It doesn't matter if the harvest is a little bit less. Would you think about the harvest of a certain wheat? "

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

"Because such a plan cannot be 100% successful, are alien species destroyed by native species? Or is it a climatic disaster that destroys alien species! Oh, by the way, you do n’t think life in Australia has evolved strangely. Or maybe the aliens did it? "Li Zhendong's brain opened wide.

教授 "Professor Li, an Australian species, there are fossils a million years ago, the time node is not right."

Just as the two were arguing about this, Zhang Yuan suddenly said, "Listen to me first. First, if the civilization of the world tree is transformed, it is really the 'initiator civilization' that Glitz civilization encountered. From the perspective of what they have done, there will be no particularly malicious intent. "

"Because the Glizer civilization is clearly written, the instigators let them know the existence of science and the existence of electricity."

其 "Second, if you want to use biotechnology, fix carbon, and use the most fertile microorganisms, such as algae, it is much more efficient than the world tree, right?"

如果 "If this civilization is indeed strong enough, the development of such microorganisms should not be a problem, and not a tall plant like the World Tree. Although the final effect is the same, the efficiency is undoubtedly more than a little lower."

Li Zhendong thoughtfully and did not speak, which is hard to explain. If it is forcibly determined that a more advanced civilization cannot develop such a microorganism, it will only make people laugh at big teeth, even he himself will not believe it.

Everyone gradually calmed down, a little relieved.

For an interstellar civilization, if you want to mine material, there is absolutely no need to adapt to local conditions and modify the genes of local species.

"If it has great malice, you can directly develop one or more super microorganisms, destroy all animals and plants, and then multiply without restriction. The Rileys do not need to keep them alive and produce variables."

In this way, the efficiency can be tens of thousands of times higher than the simple world tree. The species extinction plan that the world tree can only complete in thousands of years, using super microorganisms, can be completed in hundreds of years ...

Zhang Yuan also said, "Actually, everyone, if you think about it, I still think that the Enlightener has a certain kindness. The world tree in this world is not necessarily bad for Riley's civilization. "

"First, World Tree provides a lot of food and living space. At least in ancient times, there was a place to shelter from wind and rain ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ It is much less likely to starve to death. Without World Tree , Their population will be much smaller, and the development of civilization will be more difficult, where will it be so comfortable now. "

"Second, the world tree provides very good building materials. The performance of this tree core is comparable to the steel of the 20th century, and it is not easy to rot, and it is not easy to be oxidized by air. This biological material was placed in the 20th century of human beings. Or in the 21st century, it can still be used! "

"It will be easy for everyone to understand how convenient this will be for development. Regardless of whether it is infrastructure or building a house, even steel bars can be saved."

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

Iron and steel, the cornerstone of a civilized industrialization, almost all industrialized countries ’industrial processes begin with the refining of iron and steel. Without steel, there will be no other industrial products, there will be no high-rise buildings, and there will be no guns and ships.

If "steel" can grow in the ground in the early stage of civilization, its convenience is of course self-evident.

"Oh, by the way, there is a third point, because the appearance of the world tree has fixed more carbon elements, and more fossil resources have appeared in the entire world! If the Riley civilization has truly developed modern technology, we will definitely thank Those fossil resources. Who wouldn't want to have more fossil fuels in the early days of civilization! "

"This is a big gift from heaven. Earth civilization, if there is no fossil fuel, can we develop modern civilization? No! Even the first industrial revolution cannot be produced!"
