The stars, but they become the gray wind

"It seems that the place where you originally lived was not just another civilization, but most likely another universe..."

"Oh... Could it be that I really traveled to another world?" Luo Ying touched his forehead and muttered doubtfully.

"Don't worry about this for now. I have good news to tell you." At this time, Xiao You, who was floating beside them as a holographic projection, said to Elena and Luoying.

"It's faster than I thought..." Hearing Xiao You's reminder, Elena showed an expression that she had expected.

"The central consciousness, acting as the core, already knows what happened here. It has extracted all the memories I read about this person and conducted a more comprehensive analysis. The 'Tree' has already informed the others about this matter. Elena, she asked if you need to transfer this child to a more complete scientific research facility?"

"When she sent this message, her tone was inquiring. She also said that if you don't mind setting up the research facility here, she doesn't mind. If you want to set up the research facility here, she will send the corresponding automatic construction equipment to help you expand it to a larger scale and equip it with more complete scientific research equipment. However, in return, more scientific researchers will also come to assist you directly."

"Uh...excuse me, what happened?" At this moment, Luo Ying, who knew nothing about the civilization and society he lived in, was confused by the conversation between the two people in front of him.

"Your name is Luo Ying, right?" Elena said with a friendly smile.

"Uh...yes."

"Luoying, just now, information about your existence and origins has been made known to every individual in our civilization through the central artificial intelligence... By the way, unlike the society you originally lived in, our civilization, based on your original physiological understanding, is composed of a single-sex intelligent species consisting only of females."

"Oh...ah?" Luo Ying was stunned when he heard this.

Chapter 113: The Tree of Life and the Stars in the Sky (6000 words)

In a bar full of technology, luxurious style and great atmosphere, an elf lady with long golden hair was lazily leaning on the sofa in the bar. The golden-haired elf lady opened her arms and was holding two cat girls with cat ears on their heads and long furry tails behind them, one on the left and one on the right. The two cat-eared girls were wearing revealing nightgowns and were licking the elf lady's slender neck affectionately with their tongues. The elf lady, who was surrounded by the two cat-eared girls, also had an expression of enjoyment on her face. While enjoying it, she also stretched out her hands to the two cat-eared girls from time to time, and touched the two young cat-eared girls all over.

On the stage in front of the sofa where the blonde elf lady was sitting, several elf girls with pointed ears and wearing sexy dance dresses were performing a dance with suggestive meanings.

Just as the blonde elf queen was leaning on the sofa enjoying the service of the two cat-eared girls and admiring the performance of the young elf dancers on the stage in front, a beautiful silver figure suddenly appeared in front of the blonde elf queen.

"Anna, stop playing, something happened." Xiao You said, appearing in front of the elf queen in the form of a holographic projection.

"Hey...what's the matter?" Seeing her artificial intelligence assistant suddenly appear, the blonde elf queen called Anna stood up lazily from the sofa, but her restless hands were still around the waists of the two cat-eared girls, and she was taking advantage of them openly and secretly.

"It's about Elena... This is a big deal... Even the 'Tree' was alarmed. The 'Tree' and the computing center contacted me personally before, asking if Elena needed more technical and professional assistance?" As an artificial intelligence with extremely powerful perception capabilities, Xiao You certainly noticed that Anna's restless hands slowly moved down to the buttocks of the two cat-eared girls, moving around restlessly, but seeing that the two cat-eared girls also looked very happy, Xiao You did not say anything about it.

"My goodness... What on earth did my sister do to cause the Tree to make such a fuss?"

"I have uploaded what happened to Elena into your brain. You will understand it after you take a look at it yourself." For convenience, Xiao You sent his previous preliminary scan and analysis results of Luoying's memory directly to Anna's brain through the wireless neural interface.

"Huh...what is this?" After receiving the analysis report sent to her highly mechanized brain, Anna carefully read through the report. As she continued to read the contents of the report, her expression became more and more surprised.

"This is really... astonishing..." Anna said after reading the report.

"Yeah... We've been searching for extraterrestrial intelligent life for tens of thousands of years, but to no avail. Then suddenly a ready-made extraterrestrial intelligent creature appeared and was delivered directly to us... That's not right... Maybe it should be called alien life?" Xiao You's face, which was made up of holographic projections, smiled at Anna.

"After all, judging from the information obtained from her memories, the speed of light and other fundamental physical constants in the world she came from are slightly different from ours."

"Xiao You...you said that this intelligent creature from another universe appeared in Elena's private laboratory?" Anna, Elena's sister, also seemed very interested in Luoying's origins.

"Well... to be precise, I first detected that an automated biological culture chamber in Elena's private laboratory suddenly and inexplicably activated without authorization, creating a blank mermaid body. Without detecting any digital consciousness upload from any fellow mermaid or strong artificial intelligence, this body suddenly activated, and for some reason a clear and rational self-awareness emerged within it. After my scans and examinations, I discovered that not only was this body and its self-awareness unable to perceive or connect to our spiritual network, it wasn't even from our civilization. The society she originally lived in was a civilization very different from ours."

"A completely different civilization? That's interesting... Did the 'Tree' know about it right away?"

"You know... all citizens' artificial intelligence assistants are essentially parallel consciousness and subroutines of "Tree", an artificial intelligence born from our mental network cluster." Xiao You spread his hands and said.

"And... contact with the first intelligent creature from an alien planet, or even an alien universe... such a significant historical moment, and the person who accomplished it was actually Elena. It looks like our sister will be recorded in history forever." Thinking of this, Anna said very humorously, and touched the buttocks of the two cat girls beside her fiercely again.

"Let me correct you... To be more precise, it should be the consciousness of an intelligent creature from another universe. What's more, we don't know the civilization this intelligent creature came from, nor do we have more specific information." Xiao You saw clearly what Anna did to the two cat girls, but she still did not stop her, because in the social concept of Sky Star, as long as both parties are willing, there will be no problem in the eyes of outsiders.

Not only is Anna a regular at this bar, but her owner Elena also often visits this bar and hangs out with other elf girls, mature women, and lolita girls in the bar. Of course, Elena will occasionally change her taste and hang out with cat people or mermaid sisters.

It is worth mentioning that all the hostesses working in this bar do not actually earn a penny, because there is no such thing as currency in the entire Sky Star civilization. All the material and spiritual needs of the citizens living in the Sky Star System are met by artificial intelligence. If a citizen needs an item, he only needs to tell his artificial intelligence assistant, and the artificial intelligence assistant will first determine the complexity of the item. If it is a relatively simple product, such as a wrench or a personal computer, then the artificial intelligence assistant will call the citizen's residence or the nearest nanomaterial molecular printer to complete the manufacture of the item and deliver it to the citizen who made the request through means such as drones or automatic transport vehicles.

However, if the product a citizen needs is too technically complex, or the product is too large in size and weight to be manufactured by commonly used personal nanomaterial printers, and it is difficult to transport the item by conventional means, then the artificial intelligence assistant will send the demand to the large-scale automated production factory closest to the citizen's location, and the large-scale nanomaterial printers in the automated production factory will meet the citizen's higher standards of customization.

Because large-scale nanomaterial printers in automated factories can process at a more microscopic level than personal printers, they can produce products made of materials that cannot be made by personal molecular printers. By stimulating electrons in a metastable state to have better chemical bonding energy than carbon atoms, unprecedented "super materials" are formed, and these "super materials" are used to manufacture special products needed by citizens.

However, such large-scale nanomaterial printers may not be able to meet the special needs of citizens. For example, if some citizens want to obtain personal or home spaceships that are more than a kilometer long, the artificial intelligence assistant will directly send the various indicator data of the spaceship required by the citizens to the planetary ring orbital dock in orbit around the entire planet. The giant nanomaterial printer in the dock will complete the construction of the spaceship. After the construction is completed, the citizens will be notified to collect their spaceship and its supporting facilities.

The civilization on Sky Star has been developing for tens of thousands of years under this utopian system since its birth.

The intelligent creatures and civilizations on Sky Star were all born from a giant plant that grew at the north pole of the planet, with a height of more than hundreds of thousands of kilometers: the Tree of Life.

Ever since the birth of intelligent species on Sky Star and the beginning of their memories, the giant plant, the Tree of Life, has been growing at the North Pole of the planet. The giant tree's complex root system is spread throughout the entire planet, and even penetrated deep into the planet's core long before the birth of intelligent species on Sky Star. This giant tree has been precisely regulating the planet's geology and climate environment for hundreds of millions of years. Since the birth of the three races living on Sky Star, there have been no natural disasters on the entire Sky Star. The most common natural disasters in the development of Earth civilization are hurricanes, earthquakes, mudslides, droughts, floods, heavy rains, tsunamis, and other natural disasters. After the birth of life on Sky Star, the entire Sky Star has not experienced any form of natural disaster for more than tens of millions of years.

During these hundreds of millions of years, the geology and continental plate tectonics of Sky Star have not changed at all. Sky Star is a planet with more than 85% of its surface covered by oceans. Only in the equatorial region of the planet is there a continent nearly half the size of Australia, and scattered land in the form of island chains distributed on the equator of the planet, as well as the area where the Tree of Life grows at the north pole of the planet. The huge roots of the Tree of Life have created a huge land above the sea level at the north pole of the planet, comparable to the size of Antarctica on Earth. Most of the branches of the Tree of Life, which is more than hundreds of thousands of kilometers high, are not within the atmosphere of Sky Star, but extend beyond the atmosphere to directly obtain the light and heat of the sun. The Tree of Life itself does not cast shadows on the plants that rely on photosynthesis to grow as known to Earthlings. The Tree of Life is composed of a von Neumann self-replicating nanorobot with a diameter of only 2nm, smaller than the double helix structure of DNA. This nanorobot constitutes the entire Tree of Life and maintains the growth and development of the Tree of Life.

The nanorobots that make up the Tree of Life do not rely on inefficient photosynthesis to replicate themselves, but directly absorb large amounts of ionizing radiation and consume a certain amount of matter to allow themselves to proliferate and replicate rapidly. In the early stages of the Tree of Life's growth, in order to obtain more matter, the roots of the Tree of Life continued to grow deep into the planet until they penetrated the core of the earth. After a long time, the energy of the entire planet has been utilized and mastered by the Tree of Life, but even so, it is still not enough for the still growing Tree of Life, and she longs to obtain more energy and matter.

At this time, the Tree of Life, whose roots have spread throughout the entire planet, has the ability to completely drain and dismantle the resources of the entire planet, but she ultimately chose not to do so. Instead, she began to cultivate intelligent life on the planet she controlled, and intended to let these intelligent life forms help her obtain resources and energy from other celestial bodies in the galaxy.

The development process of the civilization on Sky Star is also very different from the Earth civilization that Luo Ying is familiar with. Due to the influence of the Tree of Life and certain external forces, Sky Star gave birth to three kinds of intelligent creatures with completely different body structures and evolutionary paths. They are the cat people who mainly live on the continents in the equatorial region of the planet, the mermaids who are amphibious creatures who live in the shallow sea areas on the edge of the equatorial continent and in the tropical oceans of the equatorial island chains, and the elves to whom Elena and Anna belong, who mainly live on the continents in the Arctic region where the Tree of Life is located.

It is worth mentioning that the three intelligent creatures on Sky Star are all single-sex races, and the ecosystem of Sky Star also presents a similar situation. Female life forms are absolutely dominant among all kinds of animals in the ecosystem, and the proportion of male species in the entire ecosystem is less than 0.0002. Because of this, almost all creatures in the ecosystem of Sky Star have the ability to reproduce with the same sex, of course, including the three intelligent races on Sky Star that are completely composed of a single sex. However, due to the existence of males in other animals in the biosphere, although the three races on Sky Star are all single-sex intelligent races, they have the concept and cognition of males or the opposite sex.

Regarding the current situation where female species occupy an absolute dominant position in the ecosystem of Sky Star, the long-term paleontological research conducted by the three tribes since the Industrial Revolution has shown that as early as the beginning of life on Sky Star, the males of various animals in the ecosystem had some kind of genetic defect. The Y chromosomes that make up the males did not exist in pairs, and they lost the ability to eliminate mutations that harm their own genes and correct errors and repair genes through "backups" very early. The size of the Y chromosomes of most male individuals also decreased rapidly in the subsequent evolutionary history, and the length of the chromosomes themselves also shortened rapidly in just tens of millions of years. The vast majority of DNA sequences carried by the Y chromosomes also gradually lost most of their functions in the evolutionary history. According to paleontological archaeological discoveries and research, in the hundreds of millions of years of biological evolution history of Sky Star, the proportion of male individuals of all species that have existed in the past hundreds of millions of years has not exceeded 3 of their own species for a long time. Throughout the entire biological evolutionary history, females of various species have occupied an absolute dominant position. Even now, this situation in the biosphere of Sky Star has not changed.

About 12 years ago, when the three intelligent races were just born and formed civilization on Sky Star, the proportion and number of male creatures in the biosphere of Sky Star experienced another sharp drop. At that time, some female creatures in the ecosystem of Sky Star evolved the ability to emit a certain chemical substance, pheromone, into the surrounding air through their body surface. This pheromone is harmless to the female individuals themselves, and even to a certain extent has the effect of keeping the body clean and sterilizing for the female individuals emitting the pheromone and other female individuals. However, this pheromone dispersed in the air is fatal to male individuals in the biosphere. After inhaling more than a certain amount of this pheromone, it will cause the male individual's nervous system to directly suffer from anaphylactic shock and lead to death. For this reason, the number and proportion of males in various species on Sky Star experienced a large-scale plunge, directly dropping from 3.1% to less than 1%.

The female creatures on Sky Star will emit this pheromone when they feel happy or in danger, and when they enter the breeding season, they will emit pheromones outside the body 24 hours a day.

For the male animals on Sky Star during this period, reproducing offspring with females means death, because they will inevitably inhale excessive amounts of air containing pheromones during the reproduction process, which will lead to anaphylactic shock and sudden death. In addition, the creatures on Sky Star have a very high probability of infertility when reproducing with the opposite sex, and their offspring have a very high probability of genetic defects. The probability of such genetic defects in offspring of opposite sex reproduction is often as high as over 60%, while such problems will not occur in offspring of same sex reproduction.

The last and most critical factor that has caused the proportion of male individuals in the Sky Star ecosystem to drop to its current level is the existence of nanomachines and mental networks.

The three intelligent races of Sky Star, whether they are cat people, mermaids or elves, are born with this kind of spiritual perception network. Through this network, individuals can perceive each other's emotions and current thoughts, and can even experience the subjective feelings and emotions about a certain thing in person. This spiritual perception network even ignores the existence of race. The three intelligent races with completely different living environments and body compositions rely on the spiritual perception network, and have been carrying out barrier-free communication and integration regardless of racial differences and communication methods since the birth of civilization.

It is precisely because of the existence of this spiritual perception network that no system based on the exploitation of the majority by a minority has ever been born in the history of the development of Sky Star's civilization. This is because any possible exploiter will personally feel the sensory pain and negative emotions of the exploited. This feeling of feeling the exploited's pain as if personally could even make the exploiter feel that life would be worse than death.

Because of the existence of this spiritual perception network, there has never been any slavery or feudalism based on exploitation and oppression in the history of Sky Star's civilization, and the capitalist system has never been born because of the existence of these perception networks.

Since the dawn of civilization, Sky Star society has long been based on a networked, cooperative, and non-hierarchical social model. In this society, everyone possesses extensive knowledge and clearly understands what they are doing, as well as what those related to their work are doing and the significance of their work.

If we have to find an adjective to describe such a society, it would be a "pragmatic society."

The social operation mode of Sky Star since the birth of civilization is just like the "cellular cooperation" in a living organism.

Each cell does not store the structural diagram of the entire organism.

It just knows how to change itself according to the surrounding conditions.

So, just like a tornado made up of unintelligent gas molecules, each cell only knows how to react to the surrounding conditions, but together they still create complex life.

In this process, cross-system communication is still necessary. Everyone in the system can quickly know what people far away from them are doing. The mental perception network can provide a kind of global state perception capability similar to the Internet of Things sensor network.

For most Sky Star people, planning or working through the spiritual perception network is like playing City Skyline. They have a higher level of God's perspective perception ability, which allows them to zoom in and out, and feel the changes in various macro and micro parameters.

Each individual can easily know the status of the entire project or any other part of the work

At the same time, this mental perception network also allows a person to easily find another person who is doing something.

During the hundreds of thousands of years of development, the spiritual perception network of the three tribes of intelligent life on Sky Star has been continuously improved and explored, and the three tribes on Sky Star have also gained a deeper understanding of the spiritual perception network that constitutes the foundation of their own civilization.

This mental network isn't unique to the intelligent life of Sky Star; other animals in the planet's ecosystem also share it. But strangely, whether it's Sky Star humans or Sky Star animals, this mental network exists only between females. Males of all Sky Star animals are unable to sense and access this network. Throughout the history of Sky Star's scientific development, all attempts to connect males to this mental network, which exists only between females, have failed. Any male animal that connects to this network will suffer brain damage or die instantly.

The Sky People also discovered another strange characteristic of the spiritual perception network, that is, the memory inheritance characteristic. The knowledge and experience possessed by the Sky People will be passed on to their offspring. If a Sky People, no matter which of the three intelligent life forms her race is, she has the ability to pass on her own knowledge and practical experience in work to her offspring, and the offspring often not only inherit the knowledge and experience of the mother who gave birth to them. If a Sky People's maternal mother has relationships with multiple paternal women and produces offspring with the genetic characteristics of several people, this offspring will have the genetic memory of all people's scientific knowledge and practical experience.

Because of this characteristic, Sky Star people don't need to spend a lot of time learning various kinds of knowledge and common sense from birth. They are often born with the ability to integrate various scientific knowledge. A Sky Star person only needs a little acquired learning to perfectly utilize the scientific knowledge and practical experience inherited from their parents or multiple relatives.

What's even more interesting is that this memory inheritance is race-blind. Even if the mother who gave birth to a Sky Starman is of a different race than the other paternal women who had relationships with him, it will not affect the memory inheritance. The child born will have the common genetic memory of all the paternal women who had relationships with his mother and the maternal woman who gave birth to him.

Because of this, the people of Sky Star are very open to same-sex relationships. It is very common for a woman to maintain that kind of relationship with multiple other women in Sky Star society. At the same time, the understanding of marriage in Sky Star society is also different from that of humans. In their view, marriage should be a family formed by at least three or more different women, rather than a one-to-one combination in human cognition. In the family concept of Sky Star people, it is very common for both individuals to love several people. For example, Elena and Anna's parents are elves, but both parties love each other and maintain that kind of relationship with multiple other women of different races.

His daughters Anna and Elena followed suit and often came to this bar to hang out with girls of other races. Anna preferred young catgirls and mermaid girls, while Elena preferred intimate physical contact with young elf girls of the same race.

Chapter 114: The History of Sky Star (6000 words)

At the North Pole of the Sky Star, the crown of the giant Tree of Life in space bathes in the morning sun in the vacuum, ushering in a new day.

At some point shortly after the first single-celled organisms evolved in the ocean of the planet Sky 2 billion years ago, the Tree of Life took root in the Arctic region of Sky. As the cells that make up the Tree of Life, von Neumann self-replicating nanorobots with a diameter of only 2nm began to use the rich mineral resources in the Arctic region of Sky at that time to replicate themselves and accelerate the growth of the Tree of Life. As time went on, the Tree of Life growing in the originally cold Arctic region became larger and larger, from the initial few hundred meters high to the behemoth over 100,000 kilometers high today. Over the past hundreds of millions of years, carbon nanotube roots with room-temperature superconductor properties have grown and spread to all parts of the planet. The entire Tree of Life, like a precise computer, controls its own growth. As the growing roots gradually penetrate deeper into the planet's core, the Tree of Life begins to use the geothermal energy of the planet's core to further help its own growth, and interact with the rich and various rare minerals in the deep layer of the planet that are in a fluid state under extreme pressure and temperature.

During this period, the influence and control ability of the Tree of Life gradually spread to all aspects of the entire planet, including adjusting the planet's geomagnetic field, controlling all geological activities of the entire planet, manipulating the planet's climate, etc., and the microscopic cells that make up the Tree of Life, that is, those nanorobots, were also spread throughout the planetary ecosystem. Under the action of nanorobots that have the ability to convert photoelectricity and absorb ionizing radiation to replicate themselves, the species of the entire planet began to evolve rapidly. Under the influence of nanorobots, almost all plants in the Sky Star ecosystem have evolved photoelectric conversion like solar photovoltaics and the ability to store the collected electrical energy. These plants have also evolved an organ that can release its stored electrical energy into the atmosphere in the form of microwaves. In such a plant with photoelectric conversion and power generation capabilities, after its own stored electrical energy is saturated, it will release the stored electrical energy in the form of microwaves through the microwave discharge organ.

And these plants affected by nanomachines can do more than just photoelectric conversion and biobatteries. As nanomachines that make up the cells of the Tree of Life, they can replicate themselves in a vacuum environment by absorbing ionizing radiation and consuming a certain amount of matter. Most plants on Sky Star also have the ability to survive in a vacuum environment simply by absorbing large doses of ionizing radiation. As the leader in this regard in the entire Sky Star ecosystem, the Tree of Life itself relies on this powerful adaptability to grow to an altitude of more than hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and relies on the light and heat emitted by the sun outside the planet's atmosphere, as well as stellar ionizing radiation, and is still thriving today.

The nanomachines spread throughout the entire planetary ecosystem naturally also affected the various animals in the ecosystem, and built a primary spiritual perception network between the female individuals of various animals in the Sky Star biosphere. The offspring born between these female individuals all have genetic memories from the previous generation. These female animal individuals, who have inherited their mother's long-term survival experience and memory as an adult individual, know how to find a suitable living environment, how to obtain food, how to hunt, how to avoid predators, and other skills and experiences from birth, without the need for complex and dangerous demonstrations and teaching by the previous generation during the growth of the young.

The male species of various animals in the Sky Star biosphere seem to have some kind of biological evolutionary defect that is difficult to repair. They are unable to adapt to nanomachines, cannot access the mental perception network of female animal individuals, and have no genetic memory inheritance ability. Because of the existence of genetic inheritance ability, female animals in the Sky Star biosphere often have a higher survival rate than male individuals, stronger survival ability, and stronger adaptability to harsh environments. After suffering injuries, the body's self-recovery ability generated by the proliferation of nanomachines in the body is also much stronger than that of male individuals.

As the biosphere of Sky Star evolved rapidly under the promotion of the Tree of Life, the Tree of Life was also gradually changing the environment of the entire planet. The Arctic region of Sky Star, which originally had only small islands and was covered by a large ice sheet, continued to raise the altitude of the land in the growth area as the roots of the Tree of Life grew. More and more seabed was exposed to the ground. The Arctic region, which originally had only small islands, gradually formed an entire continent with an area equivalent to Antarctica on Earth. As the energy in the atmosphere could no longer meet the needs of the Tree of Life, the crown of the Tree of Life began to grow out of the atmosphere. Thanks to the ability of nanomachines that replicated themselves by absorbing ionizing radiation to control the microscopic structure of matter, the main structure of the Tree of Life, which was made of lightweight rigid materials, finally broke through. Breaking through the atmosphere, in a vacuum environment undisturbed by the atmosphere, the crown of the Tree of Life grows and stretches wildly, constantly absorbing light and heat from the sun, ionizing radiation, and energy from various cosmic rays. The nanomachines that make up the microscopic cells of the Tree of Life will inevitably release a large amount of heat in the process of absorbing ionizing radiation. This heat is released to the part of the Tree of Life below that is within the planet's atmosphere, causing the temperature in the cold Arctic region to begin to rise. The ice sheet that originally covered the Arctic region also completely melted in the process. After tens of thousands of years of environmental transformation, the entire Arctic region of Sky Star has become warm like spring. Countless plants and animals cling to the roots of the Tree of Life in the Arctic region, turning the originally barren Arctic region into a paradise of life.

It was also during this period that all geological activities such as volcanoes and earthquakes on Sky Star began to completely disappear. Under the operation of the root system that had penetrated deep into the core of the earth and spread throughout the planet, the geomagnetic field of the entire Sky Star was completely controlled and taken over. All natural disasters that were not conducive to the survival of life completely disappeared from Sky Star during this period. At this time, the Tree of Life, which had grown outside the atmosphere at the North Pole of the planet, had literally become the master of the entire planet and could easily utilize the matter and energy of the entire planet. If the Tree of Life at this time could be called a civilization, then there was no doubt that the Tree of Life at this time was already a genuine Type I civilization. At this time, there were still nearly a million years before the birth of the ancestors of the three later intelligent races.

After taking control of the entire planet, the Tree of Life has two paths. The first option is to completely drain all the mineral resources that make up the entire Sky Star, completely disassemble and reorganize all the materials that make up the entire planet, and transform itself into a planet-sized biological spacecraft. Go to other celestial bodies in the galaxy to obtain more materials and energy to meet its own further growth needs. After completely dismantling all other celestial bodies in the galaxy, it will pounce on the star and eventually form a biological Dyson sphere that wraps the entire star.

The second option is to cultivate intelligent creatures on Sky Star, temporarily slow down their own growth rate, and after the cultivated intelligent creatures develop to a high enough level, let these intelligent creatures go to other celestial bodies in the galaxy to obtain more matter and energy, rely on the matter obtained from other celestial bodies to establish a Dyson cloud, and feed the energy obtained by the Dyson cloud back to the Tree of Life itself that is still growing on Sky Star, taking the path of sustainable development.

Of these two paths, the former requires completely draining and dismantling the entire planet, which means that once the Tree of Life chooses this path, there will be no way out. If the planet is drained and dismantled, it will not be able to complete its evolution and transformation as a giant biological spaceship, or it will not be able to reach other celestial bodies in the galaxy and utilize the resources on those celestial bodies, or the construction of the biological Dyson sphere in the final stage will fail. Each step is full of great uncertainty. In comparison, the second option is obviously safer.

Under the influence of the memory genetic talent generated by nanomachines and mental perception networks, the intelligent creatures produced on Sky Star will have extraordinary excellent characteristics and extremely fast development speed. The civilization composed of them will be a species born for interstellar exploration.

Driven by this need, the Tree of Life began to edit and create this intelligent species that would coexist with it in mutual benefit and symbiosis in the future. However, even the Tree of Life, which had become a planetary life form at this time, did not know that... whether it was its own birth, growth on this planet, control of the entire planet, creation of intelligent species, and the development process of civilization of this intelligent species, these were all secretly arranged in advance by several allied ship girls, including Cabot.

From the birth of the Tree of Life to the moment this civilization, born from the Tree of Life, headed towards the starry sky, all variables in the entire process were under the control of Cabot and several other allied ship girls. The reason they chose to do so was that they hoped to create an interstellar civilization that was nearly perfect from its evolutionary process to its development history. In this process of secret interference, Cabot and others spent a lot of energy and emotion on cultivating the Tree of Life and this civilization. Their attention to this civilization had even reached a level that could be called partiality. As Cabot said, they had in fact treated this civilization, born from the Tree of Life, as their own daughter.

Meanwhile, after Cabot and his companions secretly used closed-time curve technology to interfere with the progress of civilization on Sky Star (Note 1), the Tree of Life, completely unaware that everything happening to it was predetermined, began to create a new intelligent species. First, the elves, who were born and attached to the main trunk and roots of the Tree of Life in the Arctic continent. Using nanomachines, the Tree of Life directly cultivated the first elves within its roots and main trunk near the ground, and established a more powerful mental network between the elves' brains. Unlike the mental networks previously possessed by animals, which could only transmit relatively simple emotions and pass on genetic memories to their offspring, the mental network used by intelligent creatures could transmit extremely complex information, such as high-density theoretical knowledge on various complex fields such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry. This mental network used by intelligent species could also transmit more abstract content, such as practical experience in a complex technical task. To put it in human terms, a top-level eighth-level technician could replicate his decades of accumulated practical experience to everyone else, allowing everyone to become a Level 8 technician.

In addition, as a higher-level spiritual perception network for intelligent creatures, it can also allow an individual to convey immersive feelings and emotions to other individuals like a VR display, so that the intelligent creatures on Sky Star will not be able to form a social operation model and system in which one part of the people exploits another after civilization is formed, fundamentally and completely cutting off the possibility of the birth of slavery and capitalism based on the exploitation of surplus value.

Since nanomachines and mental perception networks can only adapt to the characteristics of female creatures, any intelligent creatures created by the Tree of Life will only have a single female gender. Therefore, the intelligent races created by the Tree of Life naturally have the same same-sex reproduction ability as other animals on Sky Star.

When creating the elves and the other two races later, the Tree of Life endowed these intelligent species with extremely strong physical qualities. The nanomachines that were originally widely present in the bodies of various animals on Sky Star can help these animals speed up the healing of wounds after being injured to a certain extent. In the three intelligent races created by the son, the extraordinary repair ability given by the nanomachines was brought to the extreme. Whether it was the elves or the mermaids and cat people who came later, their bodies possessed super strong self-repair capabilities. With the help of nanomachines, individuals of the three species can easily achieve the level of repair ability to regenerate broken limbs. Even if key organs or vital parts, such as the brain or heart, are completely destroyed, the nanomachines in the bodies of Sky Star people can still repair them perfectly in a very short time and ensure their survival. Unless they suffer from a level of damage that destroys the entire body in an instant, such as being instantly vaporized in high temperature, it is almost impossible for Sky Star people to die.

Another talent that ensures that the Sky Aliens will not die is the mental perception network itself. While the mental perception network can convey complex information, it can also naturally transmit the consciousness and memory of intelligent creatures, which is also a form of alternative information. Once a Sky Alien suffers a level of damage that instantly destroys the body and causes death, her consciousness and memory will be recycled into the mental perception network and the Tree of Life, which serves as the entire planetary-level computing center. As long as a body can be cultivated for the deceased individual at this time, the consciousness in the mental perception network can be separated and uploaded to this body, the dead individual can be perfectly resurrected.

After creating the first batch of elves in the main position in the Arctic region, the Tree of Life shifted its attention to the continent in the equatorial region, which is equivalent to half the size of Australia on Earth. With the help of its roots and nanomachines there, she created two other intelligent creatures: terrestrial intelligent life forms, cat-people (women), who live on land, and amphibious intelligent life forms, mermaids, who live on the coast. As terrestrial creatures, cat-people mainly live on the continent with vast plains in the equatorial region, while mermaids mainly live on the coast of the continent in the equatorial region and in the shallow sea areas around the island chains distributed around the equator.

After the birth of the three races, under the direct intervention of the Tree of Life, they quickly formed primitive civilizations in three different regions of the planet. It is worth mentioning that these three races did not go through the process of hunting and nomadism to farming and gathering like humans on Earth. Instead, they possessed complete and mature agricultural technology at the beginning of their birth, and achieved universal food abundance, which humans could not achieve even after the industrial revolution thousands of years later.

Under the direct manipulation of the nanomachines in the planetary ecosystem by the Tree of Life, nanomachines with a diameter of only two nanometers are cleverly integrated into the crop cells of Sky Star and directly become part of the life structure of these crops. When the crops grow, the nanorobots contained inside unfold their tiny and elegant gene editing capabilities, precisely controlling the growth process of crops like a designer, changing the chemical composition of crops with precise and clever means, and completely customizing and changing the genetic expression of all crops on the entire planet according to the actual needs of the Sky Star people, so that they can adapt to various environments and needs, whether it is extremely cold high-altitude areas, arid deserts, or even the vacuum environment in space, as long as enough materials are provided, they can adapt to various environments and needs. As a source of energy, these crops can thrive with the help of nanomachines. Even if the crops are damaged by extreme external environments, the nanomachines can still exert their strong repair capabilities, quickly intervene in the damaged parts, repair cells and tissue structures with extremely high efficiency, and completely restore the destroyed chemical balance. This resilience and adaptability exceeds the limits and imagination of ordinary crops, allowing the crops born on Sky Star to meet and perfectly adapt to various extreme catastrophic environments. The nanomachines contained in the crops will monitor the environment around the crops during their growth cycle and provide the crops with the necessary nutrition and protection. At the same time, through the Tree of Life's ability to regulate the planet's climate, it ensures that the climate in the crop-growing area is always in an extremely stable state.

When the crops are ripe, the nanomachines will adjust the chemical composition of the crops and synthesize the most ideal chemical composition according to different needs, so that the crops produced have an incredibly high nutritional value and taste compared to normal crops.

It was with the help of these crops with extraordinary adaptability and growth capabilities that the three intelligent species created, just after entering the agricultural age, accomplished a miracle that humans could only achieve long after the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, namely, food abundance for all the people. This abundance meant that everyone had food far exceeding their own needs, rather than the primitive communist society on Earth at the same time due to insufficient total productivity.

After achieving self-sufficiency in food, the three civilizations on Sky Star began to develop explosively under the secret human intervention of the Tree of Life and the Union.

In the early stages of civilization development, the civilization on Sky Star did not master the technology of manufacturing and smelting metals like humans did. For example, if a human wanted to obtain metal tools, he would first need to obtain iron ore as raw material, then use the corresponding blast furnace to refine it, and smelt it, using very complex technical means to manufacture the metal tools he needed. However, due to the existence of nanomachines all over the planet, if a Sky Star person before the Industrial Revolution wanted to obtain metal tools, she could communicate directly with the Tree of Life, and then the metal tools she needed would be literally "grown" out of the nearest metal-rich rocks and soil under the modification and manipulation of the microscopic molecular structure by the nanomachines.

However, due to the limitations of the Sky People's knowledge of chemical elements and complex materials science at that time, most of the tools they obtained in this way were still relatively simple copper or iron tools and other products with relatively simple chemical element composition and craftsmanship.

But after the Sky People achieved universal food abundance, their level of understanding of the world and nature increased dramatically. In addition, due to the existence of an innate spiritual perception network, it became impossible for a few individuals in the same social period as humans to monopolize knowledge. Since the creation of the Sky People and the birth of civilization, only a few hundred years have passed, and their level of understanding of the world and natural laws has risen to the level before the industrial revolution. Compared with the Sky People's long lifespan of thousands of years even in a natural state, it can be said that they have completed the journey that took humans more than 5000 years or at least 200 generations in less than a generation.

Compared with the tortuous and flawed history of human civilization, the people of Sky Star have almost no stains in their hundreds of thousands of years of civilization development. Due to the existence of the mental perception network, the three tribes of Sky Star have never had any form of war or conflict in history. Any form of harm to the same kind may cause the painful emotions and feelings caused by the death of the same kind to be transmitted to the perpetrator. Therefore, there is no crime such as murder or intentional injury in the laws of the Sky Star people. Because of the existence of the mental perception network, no individual of Sky Star can do any substantial harmful behavior to other individuals.

The massacres and persecutions of fellow human beings for various reasons, such as war, religion, race or ideology, which are common in human history, have never existed in the history of the Sky Star people.

At the same time, in the development history of the Sky Star people, there has never been large-scale individual deaths caused by various plagues and infectious diseases that are common in human history. Because of the widespread presence of nanomachines in the atmosphere, soil and water environment of the entire Sky Star, the concept of disease does not exist at all for the Sky Star people. In the hundreds of thousands of years of development history of the entire Sky Star, any casualties caused by disease are zero in the true sense.

"We are a species without sadness and death." This was an exclamation made by a famous Sky Star Elf scientist after summarizing the past history after Sky Star entered the space age.

(Note 1: Closed time-like curve computer:

Calculations are based on closed time-like spacetimes with closed time curves in general relativity—equipping a computer with a time machine.)

(As an aside, if CTC is macroscopic, you can do whatever you want.

For example, the ability to modify the past using closed time-like curve technology can directly eliminate the problems caused by various negative destructive factors in the development of civilization.

You can even go directly to the future to get the answer or ask someone in the future to send the answer back.

After this thing was invented, there was no normal technological development anymore, everything was copied directly from the future.

As long as you can create this thing, no matter how long it takes in the timeline, it will be equal to "instant", because after breaking the law of cause and effect, there will be no so-called order.

The Big Bang and the infinite future can be considered "simultaneous"

As long as you can break the law of causality once

Then time will become a dotted line, and then there will be nothing...

Directly ascend to godhood

You can copy technology from the future to the present

Even the technological singularity is not this outrageous

The singularity is at least a geometric increase

This one doesn't even have a process, it just gives the result directly

And if imaginary time exists, it means that you can do an infinite number of things at the same time

In this case, if you want to describe an object, you have to use the set of all timelines that contain the object.

"You" is a collection that includes "you" in all timelines.
