The holy land of the bacterial family, the large space-time acceleration device that Constantine said was made by alien intelligence that could cause abnormal time flow was actually a microwave oven.
Although Wu Ming was fully mentally prepared, it still took him a few seconds to accept this fact.
It was a somewhat old gray household microwave oven, but its user didn't care for it very much. The top of the microwave oven's casing was full of caked stains and rust. The top of the operating panel next to the microwave door was a piece of There was an old Nokia mobile phone embedded in the lower part of the small digital screen for some unknown reason. Wu Ming could vaguely see that there were wires connecting the Nokia mobile phone and the microwave oven shell at the bottom. There is a knob for adjusting time and firepower and several buttons that have fallen into place, leaving only grooved holes.
Wu Ming's eyelids twitched when he looked at this weird-looking microwave oven that looked almost like junk: "Is this a telephone oven (tentative)?"
If the metal ball hadn't repeatedly confirmed that this was the holy land of their bacterial family, and if the shape of the microwave oven was really imaginative, Wu Ming would have probably regarded this thing as a discarded appliance that was about to be sold to a scrap recycling bin.
A thing that looks like an abandoned home appliance is actually an abnormal object that can produce extraordinary effects. Wu Ming feels that if this continues, one of him or the world will go crazy sooner or later.
"Nothing happened..." Wu Ming climbed through the window and reached out to open the door of the microwave oven. He carefully checked the situation inside. Unlike the dirty and worn-out shell of the microwave oven, the inside of the microwave oven had been cleaned very clean. Even a little too clean: "Even the tray inside is as clean as new. Are you bacteria people still responsible for the environmental sanitation issues inside the microwave oven?"
The eye-like device in the center of the metal ball swept out a scanning light, and after carefully scanning the inside of the microwave oven, the elegant and easy-going voice came faintly: "No need to look, there are no microorganisms or my kind in the Holy Land now, inside It was completely cleaned up. Not only my people, but also all traces of civilization in our clan’s cities, civilization wonders, large physical experimental sites, launch sites, and large defense systems in the Holy Land were all cleaned up and eliminated... "
The inside of the microwave is as clean as if no bacterial civilization had ever appeared.
What just happened here? Who cleans the Holy Land of the germs and traces of civilization that inhabit it? What is his purpose for doing this? Is he still around now? Is the other party so strong that the administrative center of the United Kingdom cannot send out a distress signal, or are there other reasons why the United Kingdom ultimately failed to broadcast a distress signal to all external colonies and expeditions?
A lot of doubts are swirling in the minds of several people (bacteria).
Constantine, who was tightly held in Wu Ming's hand, hummed with some schadenfreude: "It seems that those old stubborns have been preempted by the mastermind before they can start their escape plan."
Constantine was naturally referring to the man behind the emergence of bacterial civilization. Not only him, but even the top leaders of the United Kingdom who knew the truth also suspected that there was a driving force behind the emergence and development of bacterial civilization, someone who was silently observing behind the scenes. Their clan is the mastermind behind the continuous development of their clan's civilization and technology quietly.
Wu Ming was very surprised when he heard about the origin of the bacteria family from the beginning. Even with the rapid development effect brought about by time acceleration, the bacteria family could leap millions or even tens of millions of years of evolution in a short period of time. Brigade, what finally evolved should be another group of advanced intelligent organisms with complex life structures and large enough brain capacity to produce them, rather than bacteria, which are microorganisms with relatively simple life structures.
In fact, the creatures that finally evolved with high intelligence were a group of microorganisms with simple life structures, which is enough to explain a big problem.
The life structure of normal bacteria is not enough to support their evolution of advanced intelligence, because their brains... well, these microorganisms don't have such a thing as a brain at all! If even brain capacity...or even brains cannot evolve, even if they are given hundreds of millions of years, these bacteria may not be able to evolve into microorganisms with advanced intelligence.
So there is only one possibility. The bacteria suffered some external human intervention from the period of ignorance, which enabled them to develop self-awareness and the ability to think even if they did not evolve a sufficiently developed brain. Then, under the influence of time acceleration, They learned to hunt with their companions, learned to use and make tools, and even learned to pass on their experience and skills through communication. The initial gathering place was established. These bacteria began to move from wilderness to civilization, and then competed in things like robbing the wonders of civilization. Never tired of it...
Ahem, I'm going too far. From the perspective of biology and normal evolution, microorganisms like bacteria themselves do not have the necessary hardware to evolve advanced intelligence. However, they now actually possess intelligence, and even possess it. There is a man who spends his whole day thinking about how to have some fun while killing bacteria all over the world. The extent of this fantasy can basically be compared to someone telling you that he played Monster Hunter World with an IBM5100.
Your first reaction must be that the other person is talking nonsense.
But no matter whether the person who eliminated the bacteria in the holy place was the mastermind behind the development of bacterial civilization, or another housewife alchemist passing by, he did not leave any traces worth tracking. The metal ball was in the house. After looking around for three or four times without finding any clues, I finally had to accept the fact that all senior leaders of the administrative center of the United Kingdom, a large number of compatriots, high-end technicians, and scientific researchers had mysteriously disappeared.
"The kingdom will definitely fall into chaos and division for a period of time..." The voice coming from the metal ball was a little worried, and the bacteria in the medical group had no time to immerse themselves in panic and disbelief: "All the people from the colony and above The huge power vacuum created by the disappearance of all administrative leaders will not guarantee that the major colonies will not fight among themselves for control of the entire United Kingdom... Moreover, after losing various technical and material support from the Holy Land, some have just been established. The colonies will even fall into a more difficult state than before."
The days ahead for the United Kingdom will be very grim. In order to avoid the coming chaos and division more quickly, the United Kingdom's medical team hurriedly left on the Death Star after discussing the next relevant matters with Wu Ming. . After going through many twists and turns, Wu Ming finally recovered the goal of this emergency mission.
