Blessings to the beautiful stars

Chapter 193 Grand
No matter what kind of turmoil was caused by Shi Wener's words in everyone's hearts, the farm that looked like a world tree has not stopped its operation.

as usual.

There are "fruits" ripening on the branches of the farm, which are plucked by giant claw-like creatures, and the translucent and liquid-filled fleshy heads of adult starfish are shaking.

Shi Wen'er raised his head again and sighed softly, "Let's wish them a happy birthday."

Zuo Wu also looked up, and suddenly felt that those pointed heads were swaying beautifully due to the law of inertia, like a ripe golden wheat field blown by the autumn wind:

"Birthday? You starfish people's 'production' is still so ceremonial?"

Shi Wener shook his head: "'Birthday' refers to the most delicious day even if it is eaten raw."

"The breeding process has been practiced and improved countless times, and the timing of the slaughter has been accurate to the second, in order to offset the loss of deliciousness when making cans, and make my compatriots more popular, and more popular."

Shi Wen'er pursed his lips and watched the picked fruit being sent into the "trunk" responsible for the next process at a constant speed, and he could never see it again.

The chief referee continued his watching for a long time; but when there was a change in the place where the fruit was originally located, he immediately looked there.

There are new "fruits" there, which begin to develop slowly.

The clear culture medium was injected, and the germ cells of the starfish were combined in a sacred way, and the embryos began to swim happily and freely in it.

"It's really beautiful," Shi Wen'er sighed softly: "It's such a short process, my compatriots have spent their lives, leaving genetic information to give birth to offspring, and also contributing to the evolution of the entire race."

"They have fulfilled all their missions as living beings and their whole life as living beings."

Levina on the side slowly shook her head, and slowly lowered her hand that was covered with gastric juice all the time: "You call this evolution?"

Shi Wen'er turned his head with some doubts: "Of course it's evolution. This cultivation process is not cloning. It still leaves the possibility of mutation for the genes of my compatriots;"

"In the nutrient solution, the random combination of genes, if a certain individual acquires a unique taste that is more suitable for promotion, it will be selected immediately and vigorously cultivated."

"Until a group that can maintain a stable shape is obtained, it will be sold to farther places, opening up a new territory for the sea star people!"

The chief referee exhaled deeply: "Of course this is evolution! Because the direction of evolution has never been 'faster, higher, stronger and smarter'!"

"It's about being able to strengthen your own ethnic group, and let the ethnic group and its descendants spread farther and farther by any means!"

far away.

The newborn starfish embryos in the training cabin have completed their return, and an artificial swirl is rolled up in the cabin——

As has been the case for hundreds of thousands of years of their species' history, starfish newborns anchor themselves to rough rock beds to gain initial muscle mass as they fight against the lapping waves.

And Levina also felt that her mind was swept by a madman's babbling, and she clenched her fists tightly, as if she wanted to contend with this "storm":

"This kind of evolution is meaningless! These bred starfish can only be regarded as unconscious meat, and even their own lives are highly dependent on this breeding industry!"

"They don't have their own thoughts at all, and they can't maintain your starfish civilization, let alone protect themselves!

"If one day, a certain breeding farm thousands of miles away goes bankrupt, then your compatriots are destined to be dealt with, and if they can't be dealt with, they will be abandoned. At that time, it will even be a question of whether they can survive independently!"

"It's just that the number is in vain, and it is destined to be a blockbuster death!"

To maintain a proud civilization, and enough force to defend itself; this is what the lost Chudan elves pursued with all their might.

Shi Wen'er grinned relaxedly, as if he had thought about this question countless times: "I've asked it once, but I have to ask it again—do you think the birth of life itself is a miracle?"

Levina nodded slightly: "Of course."

"Even if in fact every galaxy in the Milky Way has life discovered?"

"Still."

The head referee nodded, no longer staring at the "fruit" waiting to ripen above, but slowly pacing towards the slaughterhouse with his hands behind his back, even though his small steps were nothing compared to the huge one here.

On the other side, Ji Zhi pointed to Zuo Wu at her own nose, stepped on her steps unwillingly, and finally compromised, activated her iron skirt power armor, and floated into the slaughterhouse first to scout first.

Duzi installed detectors on Ji Zhi's power armor. The detectors are not too small, just suitable for a horse girl to carry.

Shi Wener saluted Ji Zhi, who had gone away. He had already regarded the variety of creatures in the galaxy as extremely luxuriant, and the emergence of life as the same kind was already a common miracle.

Miracle.

Seeing that the reconnaissance of the bomb planted by Li Quer had already begun, Shi Wener turned to Levina and continued the topic just now: "What about the civilization above life? Is it a rarer miracle?"

Levina nodded silently, it goes without saying that civilization is rarer than life.

Signs of life have been found in all galaxies in the Milky Way, but less than one-twentieth of the total number have evolved civilizations.

Using a simple, rude and fallacious understanding, it can be said that civilization is twenty times rarer than life.

Shi Wen'er spread his hands lightly: "I'm just an ordinary person, and I dare not bet on 'high-risk, high-return' chips. I can only choose to grasp a bigger option."

"In other words."

"I believe that life is the foundation of all 'miracles', and only after it is spread out can it be possible to collide with the higher and farther miracle called 'civilization'!"

The chief referee turned his head, and no longer looked at Levina, an individual favored by fate, but at all the living beings that emerged from the World Tree:
"Just like classical novels, there are high-quality goods and garbage, but can the so-called high-quality goods be produced out of thin air?"

"Isn't it still necessary for a lot of vulgar or even garbage to appear, and to expand the readership in the cheapest way, so as to pull out a piece of soil that can accommodate 'boutique' in the two-way growth with readers?"

"The same is true of the 'civilization' you yearn for, and civilization is not the optimal solution for all environments; only when a certain amount of life spreads out, can the number of crushes increase the probability of miracles happening!"

Shi Wener said, with pride in his tone, but also with indelible pain, raised his hand again, looked at the fleshy but wrinkled skin, and sighed softly:

"Look, my hands are so weak."

"It's not that I don't know how many compatriots will die during the pursuit of 'quantity'. When pursuing so-called miracles, how miserable are those compatriots who are not miracles."

"But let me, like a god, directly carve out a civilization that can be high-spirited in the cold galaxy without fear of anything, and every individual and every life can live a happy and healthy life. I can't do it."

"I'm just a fragile and weak layman."

"What I can believe in is 'life' itself. I believe that it is an inexhaustible weed. As long as it is spread to a farther place, no matter how harsh the environment is, there will always be a plant that will bloom."

……

far away.

The detector on Ji Zhi's back emits a little bit of light, and invisible ripples begin to spread to the real world and high-dimensional space. With reference to the fluctuations of the Creation Mantra collected from various channels, he looks for all possible clues.

On the Fugitive, Jin Mian also contributed some of her own body samples, but Duzi has never dared to conduct in-depth research. She stole the body of the former chief technology hunter, but she is not a professional researcher after all.

Especially after hearing Li Que say that Yingge Suoren's design for the creation of the gods in the body had such a mysterious insurance mechanism, he dared not make any big moves.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of fluctuations absorbed by Zuo Wu before, and the blunt will not have no samples to use.

The creations collected from it are at least qualified for reconnaissance and detection.

Ji Zhi ran alone beside the tall World Tree, looking back at the place he came from from time to time, already used to being lonely.

But when he thought that the sample fluctuations in the detector on his back came from Zuo Wu's body, he felt a little warm again.

Full of energy.

Centaur Maiden flew upwards with her iron skirt, and flew to those huge fruits. The detector was capturing the signal, and her glasses were constantly scanning.

The starfish larvae have begun to take on a delicious appearance.

……

Shi Wen'er's eyes kept following Ji Zhi's trajectory, when he saw Renma Niang rushing to a room full of compatriots' fruits waiting to be sold.

He suddenly clenched his fist, tighter than Levina's, his fleshy muscles were squeezed away, and a bruise popped out:
"I have always believed that the starfish are the unique delicacy of this galaxy, and we are extremely lucky."

"As a result, there are countless profit-seekers who are willing to pay any means to send us further afield for large-scale farming;"

"And their profit-seeking nature, after discovering that the intelligence of the starfish has nothing to do with the taste of the meat, they are committed to improving the taste, and they are not willing to spend more to erase our intelligence."

"Because the production of this kind of taste is mysterious and mysterious, it is very difficult to decipher it with simple genetic engineering. In order to pursue new tastes, we are still completing evolution through random combination of genes and being selected."

"Our reproductive ability is several orders of magnitude stronger than that of the same delicious bone man. The canning industry in the entire galaxy is dominated by the starfish family!"

Shi Wen'er gritted his teeth, this time to reveal his heart is what he has been longing for for a long time, but it is difficult to vent his desire:
"Miss Elf, as for the civilization inheritance you mentioned? Let me ask you again, what is starfish civilization, human civilization, or your elf civilization?"

"The answer is who created it and who holds it, that is what civilization is!"

"The inheritance of civilization that you are proud of is really that important in the hundreds of millions of years of history of the galaxy?"

"Human civilization is already on the brink of extinction due to the demise of pure-blooded humans. In the future, everyone will at best mention it when talking about the Ancient Emperor's Alliance,"

"All kinds of famous poems that you are proud of will only lie in the museum and become relics of high-ranking widows, and even many of them are only fragments and fragments, and there will be no new content and new life injection in the future;"

"Conversely, what about the starfish who are distributed in all corners of the galaxy because of their delicious taste?"

"The sea star people will survive due to the large number, and will eventually find a direction that suits them because of the continuous 'evolution', or they will retreat into beasts, but still inherit the blood;"

"Or, a certain one accidentally touched the miracle called civilization, and it can be brilliant again; even if it has nothing to do with the previous inheritance, it is still the starfish civilization that continues."

Zuo Wu grinned and even laughed, not feeling offended.

As Shi Wener said, the things saved in his database may not even be considered the last words of human civilization, and he will not take the initiative to teach his descendants.

At least here in Zuo Wu, human civilization can no longer be passed on; even if he really becomes the emperor, what he represents and inherits is no longer "human beings", but the civilization that was vacated by the "Emperor Alliance".

Shi Wen'er was very happy that someone could still laugh from the bottom of his heart after hearing his wild words.

He inhaled, turned around, and made a final conclusion in his mouth: "Existence is everything."

"Maintaining numbers is the easiest way to maintain existence."

"I'm delighted that the Starfish has a way to be widely promoted across the galaxy."

"I'm very glad that I can neither change the galaxy nor create a layman who can overwhelm the galaxy and keep every compatriot's life safe. There is also a way for compatriots to pass it on."

Levina still clenched her fists, but she no longer wanted to refute; the madman's logic has been closed and cannot be broken, and any more debates will be futile.

But Lianggu Ling was a little sluggish.

The law is not prohibited, this is her own words, her own conclusion; according to what she said, the struggle Shi Wener made for these edible starfish is undoubtedly the struggle of life in the face of possible extinction.

but.

"Too extreme..."

……

Liangguling could only sigh in this way, and suddenly remembered Shi Wener's examination of the school when he met the veteran Yue Dubiao, and the comments he said afterwards.

——I hope he can be more extreme.

Shi Wener nodded: "It is indeed extreme, but the icy Milky Way has never been sympathetic, and only from the extreme can it break out of a world."

And Zuo Wu, who was already shocked, seemed to hear a thunderclap from the chief referee's next words:
"Have you ever wondered why the 600 million civilizations in the Milky Way discovered the hyperspace channel almost at the same time?"

Zuo Wu raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

The chief referee shook his head: "I have been looking for the answer, and I have entrusted many archaeological teams to study it. The connivance of technology hunters is also the same reason, but there is no definite answer."

"But as far as I am a layman thinks."

"I can only guess that civilization will always be extinct in large numbers for some reason, and return to the same starting line for a new round of development."

"I can't sleep at night when I think of such a possibility; if civilizations are extinct at the same time, the only thing that can be preserved is the seeds of life."

"One is quantity, which is the way I envision my fellow man."

"The second is to isolate the distance from everything. In the mass extinction, there is a refuge isolated from the world. This is Marika's plan."

Zuo Wu almost looked at Shi Wener with admiration: "Are you trying your best as an ordinary person to back up the life in the galaxy?"

The chief referee patted his chest, a little proud:

"I'm."

……

You are.

Liangguling was listening, but still felt that something was wrong with Shi Wener's words.

He said not to make grand narratives, but what about mass extinction and backup life are still too grand topics for individuals.

Nothing prohibited by law.

A madman can drag countless individuals to chase his own madness.

Nor is the individual obligated to comprehend grandeur at the expense of his own pain.

Every individual also has reasons to feel resentful about the sun he has never seen and the life he has experienced.

Ji Zhi is still investigating.

The probe on her back was getting hotter and hotter.
