Chapter 461 Stories to tell

Question time!

Every time a question is asked, the big-brained Pajeluian tells a true story of civilization. From this sci-fi story, Li Mo was able to glimpse a glimpse of the secrets of the universe and plan for the future of human civilization, which cannot be replaced by any illusory science and technology.

Li Mo did not hesitate to ask the question that has been lingering in his heart for a long time: “How many lifespans can carbon-based organisms have in the universe?”

The longest lifespans on Earth The lighthouse jellyfish theoretically has infinite life, but in fact, scientists have never found a lighthouse jellyfish with a lifespan of more than 1,000 years in the collected ocean samples.

Although 1000 years is not too short, it is only a drop in the ocean compared to the lifespan of the planet that is often billions of years old.

So, has the high-tech civilization of the universe achieved “immortality”?

A gray fog rolled on the high platform.

After a long time, the voice of the big head Pajeluian finally came: “The basic lifespan of most carbon-based organisms is only about 5000 years.”

5000 years. Faster than China China’s civilization history.

Li Mo keenly noticed Pajeluian’s strict wording: “mostly” and “basic lifespan”.

But he didn’t interrupt right away.

The big head Pajeluian continued: “Because the material basis of carbon-based organisms is carbon, the half-life of carbon is 5730 years, and the decay mode is beta decay, and carbon 14 atoms are converted into nitrogen atoms.”

p>

Li Mo nodded silently in his heart. After carbon atoms are converted into nitrogen atoms, they will lose their original physical and chemical attributes, and carbon-based organisms will inevitably go to the end of their lifespan.

“What do ‘most’ and ‘basic lifespan’ mean?” he asked this time.

The gray fog rolls on the high platform

The big head Pajeluian explained: “The ‘vast majority’ means that there are very few civilized races in the universe, and carbon-based life will come to an end. At the same time, it transforms into nitrogen-based organisms through its own life transformation.”

“This transformation is somewhat similar to your Earth’s transformation into a butterfly.”

Carbon-based into nitrogen-based .Li Mo’s heart is filled with endless envy.

“‘Basic lifespan’ refers to the primordial lifespan of the organism. When the high rank civilization reaches the end of the carbon-based, they often choose to upload the consciousness and store all the memory and consciousness in the silicon-based computer. , become a silicon-based creature.”

“However, this method of uploading consciousness is very controversial within the High Rank civilization. Because civilization individuals that become silicon-based creatures often do harm to the body carbon-based Civilization, and even try to destroy the entire carbon-based civilization.”

“So most carbon-based civilizations stipulate that strict civilization individuals upload their consciousness privately.” Big head Pajelu said.

Li Mo slightly nominates the target of spawning. After the higher civilization individuals are transformed into silicon-based civilizations, they will inevitably be restrained by the instinct of the silicon-based civilization, and they will try to destroy the original civilization by using the existing silicon-based individuals as their own. .

Or, the carbon-based creature after uploading consciousness has become a new creature?

It seems that even if human beings develop to a high level of civilization, they will not be able to break through the shackles of 5000 years of lifespan.

“Thank you for your answer!” Li Mo was very satisfied with the “cooperation” of Pajeluian, the big head.

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave the gray fog space.

“Wait!” Pajeluian, the big head, shouted from the gray fog rolling on the high platform.

Li Mo froze in place with a puzzled face.

“You don’t want to hear stories today?” Pajeluian, the big head, hesitated.

Listen to a story? Li Mo is even more confused. According to the rules, every time he completes the system task, he will get a chance to ask questions.

But the big head Pajeluian has already answered his question.

Is this a ‘giveaway’?

More than 20 years of life experience told Li Mo that there is no such thing as a free lunch, it will only fall into a trap.

He took a deep breath and endured the temptation: “sorry, I’m a little tired today and don’t want to listen to stories.”

“.A little tired.” Pajeluian, the big head in the gray fog, seemed to be I can’t believe my ‘ears’, he was rejected just now!

“If nothing happens, I will return to reality.” Li Mo’s heart is very heavy, but he has to pretend that it doesn’t matter: “After all, a great scientist’s time is very precious.”

The gray fog on the platform tumbled violently.

The big head Pajeluian continued to persuade:

“The gray fog space does not consume time”

“And, this story does not occupy any questions. , and there will be no additional requirements.”

“The main reason is that I want to tell stories today.”

Is storytelling also addictive. Or are there other important reasons, Let the big head have to tell the story?

“Oh” Li Mo pretended to be indifferent: “Since you are so sincere, tell the story and listen to it.”

“Yu” on the high platform, in the gray fog The big head of the Pajeluian was visibly sighed in relief.

“Actually, this story is somewhat related to the question you asked just now.”

“The civilization in the story is a creature that can undergo life transformation. They call themselves Gray Star Man.”

Gray Star Man. Such a strange name, Li Mo couldn’t help frowned.

The big head Pajeluian continued to tell: “The life of a gray star is divided into two stages, infancy and adulthood. The gray star in the infancy is a carbon-based creature similar to the Earth man, when the gray star After the lifespan reaches 5,000 years, the carbon atoms in the body will decay. Then after a series of complex life metamorphosis, they will enter adulthood.”

“The adult gray star is a nitrogen-based creature , they became monsters with fangs and sharp horns on their heads.”

Heard this story!

“Wait!” Li Mo interrupted Pajeluian’s speech by raising his hand.

“You’ve told this story before!”

“Grey Star is a huge planet, it is illuminated by 3 stars at the same time, the poor Grey Star can only They live on the dark side of the gray planet.”

“You Pajeluians have exported a lot of high technology to the gray stars, but they were cruelly betrayed in the end. Your main fleet has been wiped out.”

“At this time, Pajeluke Academy launched a gravitational bomb to the galaxy where Graystar was located, and Graystar all split under the combined action of the three stars. up and in pieces.”

“All the Grey Stars became cosmic dust!”

“Isn’t it?”

Why the big head Pajeluian tells What about a story that has already been told?

Is there something wrong with his memory?

Just as Li Mo guessed wildly, a long sigh came from the gray fog on the high platform: “I did tell this story, but the ending of the story is different.”

“The Gray Stars are not extinct!”

“Pajelu Branch Academy got this information from a hidden civilization.”

“This hidden civilization saw the Gray Stars from nothingness. A picture intertwined with the fate of the Pajeluian.”

Li Mo’s heart skipped a beat.
