"Does the feeling of danger still exist? Is this Gaia creature pretending to be mentally retarded? Is it paralyzing us and trying to give us a fatal blow?"
On this day, Yu Yifeng was discussing dangerous issues with others on the "Titan" ahead.
"Theoretically, this is unlikely. Judging from various manifestations, its self-awareness is indeed at a very preliminary stage, and it is continuously absorbing our social knowledge... Could it be that it pretends to be so similar? The possibility is very low...
…”
"And it has opened up the ocean to allow our submarines to explore at will. If it really does something in the deep sea, it will be detected by our submarines..."
Hearing this sentence, another military expert immediately shook his head: "Not necessarily, the ocean is so big, there will always be some forgotten corners, it is difficult for us to monitor all aspects..."
Everyone discussed it for a long time, but couldn't explain why.
And Yu Yifeng was also thinking hard. Time passed day by day without any crisis recruitment... This is simply unbelievable!
Could it be that his sense of danger was misplaced?!
After hearing everyone's various opinions, he waved his hands and said: "I always feel that the source of danger is not Gaia's creatures, but other things... Of course, the risks it brings cannot be eliminated. We must maintain
Be extra vigilant.”
Now, people's large-scale education plans are being implemented very smoothly, from video information bombing to "beach projection".
With the infusion of a large amount of human social consciousness, this algae collective gradually became familiar with humans and even began to interact closely, something the Digg people had never experienced before.
In order to speed up education, people simply projected all the "Golden Coast" in Noah onto the beaches of Planet Dig 114, allowing it to "touch" human society.
Many adults and children are playing happily on the beach. Of course, these are all 3D holographic images made by machines, but they are enough to train and influence "Gaia creatures"...
Next to the beach, a human-looking robot is specially equipped, playing with "Gaia creatures".
The flashlight in its hand emits a beam of light from time to time. Whenever it shines into the sea, the algae will change color in response.
With such a simple action, it seems to be having a lot of fun.
"This creature has been watching on the beach, and sometimes wants to play with the image of a child. Why don't you pretend to look like it? I think... it's unlikely to be a disguise."
This time it was Dr. Rimbaud who spoke. As a member of the government think tank, he looked at the various materials in his hands, lowered his head and said, "And I just received a new video, which is very interesting. You can refer to it."
have a look."
There is no gravity inside the "Titan" spacecraft. At the beginning, the designers once mentioned that a large ring-shaped structure could be used to rotate and generate centrifugal force to replace gravity.
However, that design increased the difficulty of manufacturing and also reduced the combat effectiveness of the spacecraft, so it was rejected by the military.
Things that are too delicate are always more likely to make mistakes of one kind or another. "Titan" is a spacecraft designed specifically for combat, not for comfort, otherwise it would be putting the cart before the horse.
So now, people generally use the electromagnetic force of power armor to replace gravity. Of course, because there is suitable breathable air inside the spacecraft, there is no need to wear a helmet, and everyone looks like they are wearing a metal armor.
Dr. Rimbaud clicked on the information, and a video played on the screen in the middle of the table: "It's a video of a group of plankton preying on marine algae."
But when the first scene was broadcast, Yu Yifeng rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Yes, he read it right, the algae in the ocean are being preyed upon by other creatures!
They are a group of phytoplankton of different shapes, some big and small, wrapped in various strange capsids or chitin. They are feeding on marine algae. Whether it is phytoplankton or a group of phytoplankton, they cannot eat it.
So happy...
But Gaia's creatures completely ignored them and showed no signs of resistance!
Within a few minutes, less than half of the algae was destroyed. Then the creatures were full and scattered.
"Has it been eaten? Has the intelligent algae been eaten?" Security Minister Xu Yunjin was stunned. This video was beyond his imagination, and he didn't know what to say.
An intelligent creature actually allows other creatures to eat itself. What does this mean...
"Is this... a biological weapon specially designed to suppress it? It has been researched?!" Xu Yunjin thought of an idea and immediately said in surprise. If such a thing is really developed, then... the danger of Gaia's creatures will suddenly become clear.
Much less!
Hearing what he said, everyone was startled and looked at Dr. Rimbaud. Many people still had doubts in their eyes.
"No, no, no, everyone has misunderstood. This is just an ordinary plankton. There are already millions of ordinary organisms!"
Dr. Rimbaud quickly shook his head and asked everyone to give up this idea: "How can biological weapons be developed so quickly?"
"Everyone should know that no matter how smart these algae are, they are producers in the food chain... and these plankton that feed on algae are just an important link in the ecological chain..."
When everyone heard that these were just ordinary creatures, their faces showed confusion.
Dr. Rimbaud continued: "The reason why this phenomenon occurs: I think there are two reasons, either this Gaia creature cannot detect that it is being eaten, just like the mites on our faces, in fact they are secretly eating us
Skin, but we can't feel it..."
"Is this unlikely? Its microscopic control ability can be at the nanometer level...how could it not know that it was being eaten?" Yu Yifeng frowned and retorted.
"Yes, that's right...so the high probability is the second possibility...its temperament is better than we thought! Or...as a natural producer, it thinks being eaten is no big deal.
That should be it." Dr. Rimbaud spread his hands, as if to show that no matter how people question it, this is the fact.
Yu Yifeng let out a long sigh and said thoughtfully: "I have to say that this is completely different from our thinking. If something had eaten us, we would have killed it long ago!"
"But according to some views in cosmic sociology, the natural thinking of these producers is different from ours. Their ideologies are also soft and should not be too aggressive..."
"So I think... its huge aggression at the beginning was completely misled by the Dige people! Who knows what the Dige people have learned from the intrigues all day long... maybe it thought that dropping the nuclear bomb was just to say hello.
Woolen cloth?"
These words made everyone think deeply. Many people were full of doubts. How could they allow themselves to be eaten?
It's too exaggerated. Isn't this creature's heart too big?
It would be easy to say that self-awareness has not arisen, but now...many people find it a bit difficult to understand.
Although new algae are reproduced every moment, some are eaten every moment... Is this a means of metabolism?
But it seems to be true... If algae were not allowed to be eaten, and there were no producers in the seawater, the entire ecological chain of the ocean would have collapsed long ago.
