A Colossus rushes in at the start

Chapter 233 Microscopic Organisms Are Too Difficult to Understand

Tucker explained, "I was rebuilt; some civilizations pieced me back together based on the remnants I left behind after my destruction."

"However, the core information has been permanently lost. Rather than a restoration, it's more accurate to say that another self has emerged from the corpse of the past."

Lu Shang raised his eyebrows in surprise. Logically speaking, civilizations usually put survival first, because survival is the primary need of civilization.

But Tucker Superintendent dares to take the risk and once again face the ultimate destruction that once destroyed it.

Although it is still uncertain whether it will lead to ultimate destruction, Tucker's willingness to get involved instead of keeping his distance is something that Lu Shang really didn't expect.

If it were the Babel bees, they certainly wouldn't have the courage of the Tucker superintelligence.

They value the continuation of civilization above all else; it is a civilization that is willing to sacrifice anything for the sake of its continuation.

"It's amazing you dared to join us in exploring the reasons for the destruction of the Unity Civilization," Lu Shang said.

Tucker replied, "I am much stronger than I was back then. At that time, I did not know how to accept other civilizations, nor did I recognize the V-type civilization level above the IV-type. I just blindly expanded and explored, believing that with infinite time and thought, I would eventually reach perfection."

"..."

Lu Shang felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. How come what Tucker Superintendent said was so similar to what the swarm of bees did after setting foot in the universe?

Tucker, unaware of Lu Shang's thoughts, continued, "Besides, even if it truly is ultimate destruction, it doesn't necessarily mean it will be devastating."

Lu Shang asked curiously, "Isn't ultimate destruction the nemesis of civilization?"

Tucker answered intelligently, "Yes, but not entirely, because every civilization is different. The ultimate destruction of one civilization may not necessarily be the destruction of another."

"Is that so?"

Lu Shang suddenly realized that Tucker Superintendent had the confidence to take the risk and get involved.

Every civilization has its own ultimate destruction, but the ultimate destruction of one civilization is not necessarily devastating for another.

In order to study and deal with the ultimate destruction of one's own civilization, it becomes necessary to study the ultimate destruction of other civilizations.

If this exploration does indeed end in ultimate destruction, it will only be an ultimate destruction of the Unity Civilization, not an ultimate destruction of the Tucker Superintelligence. The Tucker Superintelligence will not be destroyed; on the contrary, it will benefit.

During the time that Lu Shang and Tucker were communicating, the Nephalem civilization on the other side of the Cosmic Union completed the re-unfolding of space folding.

"Babel Tower Swarm, this is a message for you." The Nephalem Civilization copied the message and passed it on to the Babel Tower Swarm.

Hello, Babel Tower bees!

As a member of the Unity Civilization, I sincerely thank you for your willingness to explore the reasons for the destruction of our civilization.

On the eve of destruction, I pondered deeply and guessed that the civilization that could find this remaining information was most likely you.

You have enough thirst for knowledge, a desire to explore, and a sense of crisis. After discovering that the path we were about to take was similar to yours, yet we were suddenly destroyed, in order to survive and develop, and to avoid repeating the same mistakes, you will definitely come to find the reason for our destruction.

Given your cautious approach, you might invite other members of the Cosmic Union to participate as well.

This is the best option. If it were just your Babel bees exploring this place alone, I would rather you stop here and never see this message again, because going any further would be extremely dangerous for you.

I'm conflicted right now. I want you to continue exploring, but I also don't want you to keep exploring.

I want to tell you everything, but I can't explain it, because once I do, cause and effect might be implicitly acknowledged, and we might unite with you, thus reflecting back on it.

Once that happens, everything becomes meaningless.

Because of the information left behind by the unified civilization, the various bee colony creatures within the bee network are arguing endlessly.

"...Would the survival of the bee colony be threatened if we explored further?"

"Should we continue exploring?"

"How did bee colonies evolve to their current state? Was it through escaping and hiding? Of course, we need to continue exploring."

"No matter what kind of destruction it is, the bee colony must figure out what it is, then develop and grow stronger, and then solve the ultimate destruction that belongs to the bee colony, so as to become strong forever."

"But whether it was the Tucker Superintelligence or the Unity Civilization, both were destroyed in a very short time..."

"Tucker is still alive. He is a living example that proves that ultimate destruction is not ultimate, nor is it destructive enough. The swarm has the potential to defeat him."

……

Lu Shang did not participate in the debate; he was digesting some hidden information from the unified civilization.

For example, the default assumption of causality.

Could it be that once it's confirmed that the swarm and the unified civilization are allied, "it" will also undergo corresponding changes and become stronger?

Lu Shang was unsure if his guess was correct, so he asked Tucker, but Tucker was unable to provide an answer.

Because this is something that Tucker's Super Intelligence has never verified.

After a fierce internal struggle, the Babel bee colony decided to continue its exploration, since a colony can never stand still.

If we continue to develop and expand, we will inevitably face a fierce battle when the ultimate destruction of the bee colony occurs in the future.

Instead, we should figure out the characteristics of our opponents now and use those characteristics to increase the swarm's chances of winning in future wars.

Moreover, as Tucker previously stated, the ultimate destruction of one civilization is not necessarily devastating to another.

……

On the rabbi's side, the investigation into the cause of the unusual symptoms of the Lupu people is still ongoing.

The experimental results were unexpected by the microscopic organisms.

"What's going on? Why does the cloned Lupu brain exhibit stronger psychic abilities than the original Lupu brain?"

"I don't understand!"

Microscopic organisms are finding it increasingly difficult to understand the entire Lupu people's race.

To verify whether the latent variable structure exists in the brain of the Lupu man, the bee swarm attempted to replicate the brain of the Lupu man in the form of particle combinations.

Since the strength of psychic energy comes from its structure, if two brains are structured the same, then the strength of their psychic energy should be consistent.

Conversely, if the original Lupu brain exhibits higher psychic abilities than the replica brain, it suggests that the original Lupu brain contains components that the swarm has not observed.

However, this is now a clone of the Lupu brain, and its psionic performance is superior to that of the original Lupu brain!

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case. Why would a cloned brain exhibit higher psychic abilities than the original brain?

And it's still growing in psionic power?

That doesn't make sense.

Even after years of studying psionic energy, the current situation still leaves the microscopic organisms completely baffled.
