Brother Dao's evolution is all-round, covering all aspects. There are tens of thousands of major changes alone, and millions of small changes. With so many changes, Chu Jungui couldn't process them instantly even with a cube of computing power. All he could do was roughly classify them and then hand them over to different laboratories for processing. Fortunately, there were wise men assisting him. As a member of the Mist Tribe, he was naturally no stranger to evolution, so it only took him an hour to complete all the tasks.
After Brother Dao completed his evolution, an unexpected situation occurred, that is, all the previously separated sub-bodies lost their activity and needed to be replaced by new sub-bodies. Fortunately, there is a process for the old daughter's activity to disappear. It will take more than a month to completely die. Before that, it can still work normally. Otherwise, Lightyear's production line will be shut down instantly, and the losses will be immeasurable. Lightyear now has two large and four small six-seater shipyards, and nine starships, including two capital ships, are under construction at the same time. Of the nearly one million engineering ships in total, less than one hundred thousand are piloted by humans, and the rest are all Taoist ships. Brother's son. If they were to shut down at the same time, all the starships under construction would be destroyed.
After evolution, Brother Dao needs to regenerate his daughter body, which requires massive energy and material supplements. But now the replenishment method is different. It turns into a thin film with a diameter of 10,000 kilometers, facing the direction of the blue sun to absorb energy. As for the material aspect, there are engineering ships towing in asteroids, crushing them and feeding them. After evolution, Brother Dao already gives people the feeling that he is not a living creature.
It will take about 10 days for Brother Dao to complete the initial energy replenishment, and then he will split into new sub-bodies at a rate of 200,000 per day.
Chu Jungui stood on the space station, looking at the thin curtain slowly opening in the distance, wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he returned to the base. There was nothing to see for the time being before Brother Dao started to produce offspring.
Back at the orbital base, Chu Jungui entered the laboratory directly and connected Wise Man and Le Mans.
Le Mans's eyes were bloodshot and his sparse hair was disheveled. It looked like he hadn't had a good rest for a long time. Seeing Chu Jungui, he rubbed his face, then drank a bottle of alcohol, his energy suddenly lifted, and he said: "There are too many evolutionary data to be processed at once, but there are still some in the past few days. Some discoveries. First let’s take a look at its cells.”
Two images appeared in the center of the laboratory, which were Brother Dao's cells before evolution and after evolution. It can be seen from the visual comparison of the images that the basic cell volume of Brother Dao after evolution is almost 10 times that of before evolution.
Le Mans said: "According to the examination of more than 1 million samples, the volume of the new cells after evolution is 10.73 times that of the original, and the mass is 15 times. Inside the cells, the most obvious increase is the genetic material, and this part also has the largest change. .”
The image changed, and the genetic material within the cells appeared. Before evolution, the genetic material was a special triple helix structure, which was complex enough. After evolution, the genetic material turned into round spheres, each sphere connected by several filaments.
Le Mans stretched out his hand a little, and the sphere opened, revealing the internal structure. Inside was an extremely complex mechanism, like a honeycomb.
"This kind of genetic structure has never been seen before, but what is certain is that the genetic information it carries has been improved by orders of magnitude. Such a gene ball can record 1,000 times the genetic information of our humans. And in a cell, this The number of gene-like balls ranges from 5 to 40. And inside the balls, there are a large number of inorganic material structures, accounting for more than 35% of the mass. To a certain extent, it can even be said that this is a special half-life, half-machine Life form."
Chu Jungui looked at the wise man, who was very calm and showed no reaction.
"Wise man, do you have anything to say?"
"Every evolutionary path of our Mist tribe is different. We know very little about other evolutionary paths. Even this path, we know nothing about it before evolving to the next stage. When I evolve to the next stage, Maybe there will be many differences from Brother Dao." Chu Jungui had heard similar statements before, so he continued to listen to Le Mans' analysis.
Le Mans zoomed in on an area inside the gene ball, pointed at the complex criss-crossing mechanisms, and said: "This structure seems to have the effect of resonating with a specific frequency energy field. In other words, it can be regarded as some kind of information-receiving device." device, but the specific mechanism still needs further study. At present, we have
What information it can receive and where it receives it from is still unknown. But I guess that maybe this is the reason why the Mist tribe can receive corresponding knowledge after evolving. "
Chu Jungui is not an expert in biology, so naturally he cannot understand those complex structures.
Next, Le Mans introduced the current discoveries of more than a dozen projects, which are all small discoveries in details. More in-depth research will require time and computing power. To be able to make such progress in such a short period of time, Le Mans' capabilities are already quite strong. It's just that he has too many projects at hand and is really overwhelmed.
After Le Mans finished his report, Chu Jungui asked him to continue observing all the changes in Brother Dao and ended the meeting.
The wise man did not quit immediately. He suddenly asked: "Do you want to evolve?"
"Me?" Chu Jungui was a little surprised.
The wise man said: "Every species needs to evolve, but in nature this process will be completed over a long period of time, maybe tens of thousands of years, maybe tens of millions of years. And the evolution of our Mist Tribe is somewhat similar to that of butterflies , from larvae to adults, they are almost two species. However, butterflies only have one transformation, while we will have many transformations, and each transformation is a huge leap in life form. And you actually have many characteristics of our Mist Tribe."
Chu Jungui frowned slightly, thinking, but said nothing.
"After returning from the real dream, your body structure has also undergone considerable changes, and tissues capable of manipulating energy fields have appeared. If you need, I can add some similar tissues for you."
"Has our technology reached this point?"
"Yes. There was still a lack of key data before, but now Brother Dao's evolutionary data has made up for the shortcomings. There are no technical obstacles to adding some functional organizations. This is a list of functional organizations that we can add."
Chu Jungui received the data and read it carefully. The list is not very long, only a dozen items, but they have different functions, ranging from heating, energy absorption to discharge.
Chu Jungui read it silently and asked, "What is the difference between these tissues and biochemical organs?"
"Of course!" the wise man replied proudly: "These tissues are pure genetic technology, that is to say, they can be programmed in genes and passed on to the next generation. From a technical perspective, they are far from comparable to biochemical organs. . In terms of the level of gene editing, it is already the highest level of humankind at present."
