For 30 million years in the Ninggeng Galaxy, or even longer than what Wu described, all life here has been going through cycles of life again and again.
Especially the individual beings in the universe.
"Aside from the same name, their appearance after evolution has not changed much. In the past 30 million years, Nuo has appeared five times in my records. This guy can be regarded as one who appears very frequently. ”
The record Wu mentioned refers to the number of times an individual life in the universe was born from the population of the planet and became the final individual.
In thirty million years, Nuo was recorded five times by him.
In other words, in 30 million years, the recorded number of times that Nuo became an individual being in the universe was five times.
"According to my observations, the time of each 'life cycle' is about three million years. Three million years may not be long or short, but it can indeed allow an individual life in the universe to grow from a larvae to an adult." It is close to a high level, and then fails to evolve and turns into a nebula, giving everything back to the universe.”
Jing listened carefully and asked questions about his doubts from time to time.
"How did you come up with three million years?"
Wu replied: "The average time from the advanced failure of individual life evolution in the previous universe to the advanced failure of individual life evolution in the next universe is almost three million years. Those nebulae in our territory are the best proof of time."
In the territory of individual life in the universe, those huge nebulae turn out to be proof that individual life in the universe has experienced the "life cycle" in the Ninggeng galaxy.
"Ugh, in every 'life cycle', there will be a cosmic technological civilization similar to the Tiantu civilization? So can such a cosmic technological civilization also be a proof of the 'life cycle'?"
"Yes, you are right. But I still judge based on every evolutionary failure. After all, the signs of these technological civilizations are not obvious, but it is not easy to judge from the perspective of time."
"In terms of time, what is the judgment?" Jing was a little curious.
"Determine how long this 'life cycle' will last."
"How much longer?"
"About a hundred thousand years."
In an instant, Jing felt a full sense of urgency.
"Wu, I want to ask, in a 'life cycle', except for the individuals that failed to evolve, what about the other individuals? Will they enter the next 'life cycle'?"
Jing's view on the "cycle of life", from Wu's few words, he actually felt that it was very much like an alternative "ethnic mechanism".
The mechanism of the group requires the individual life larvae of the universe to determine the final individual, and perhaps the purpose of the "life cycle" is to select individuals who become advanced?
Without becoming advanced, this cycle will continue.
The "group mechanism" in the "life cycle" may also allow the individual most likely to become a high-level individual to devour all the other individuals.
Just like eventually the individual devours all blood relatives.
Moreover, from Wu's description, the names of all individual beings in the universe in the Ninggeng galaxy have not changed in the "life cycle" again and again.
They are actually a different kind of blood relatives.
Wu's answer also confirmed Jing's guess.
"It is very difficult to break through to the advanced level. We must be fully prepared before we can proceed to the next step of evolution."
The implication.
After getting rid of the cosmic technological civilization, and before breaking through to the advanced level, the individual life forms in the Ninggeng galaxy will fight exactly like they did in their infancy.
"Check and fill in the gaps. Although we don't know how things work outside the Ninggeng Galaxy, within the Ninggeng Galaxy, if the individual life in the universe devours the individual life in the universe, we will still get the evolution equation, and we don't know if this is a kind of Certain arrangements.”
"In other words, in the end, the strongest batch of individual cosmic lives will die. And the weak batch of individual cosmic lives will enter the next 'life cycle', is that right?"
"No, Jing, the individuals in the previous batch of 'life cycle' will not enter the next cycle."
Wu explained: "Although this 'life cycle' ends with the ultimate failure of individual life evolution in the universe, this does not mean that those individuals will enter the next cycle."
"In the next 'life cycle', the identity of these individuals is 'food', and they are the 'food' for the technological civilization of the universe. They will not become the 'food' for the individual beings in the universe in the next 'life cycle'. Due to various reasons The reason is that they will all die at the hands of the technological civilization of the universe.”
"This group of individuals is used to cultivate technological civilization."
Jing was confused about this: "But, wouldn't it be best if they were used to cultivate individual lives in the next cycle, or directly enter the next cycle? Wouldn't this greatly shorten the time of each cycle? "
In Jing's guess.
The "life cycle" is most likely like a mechanism used to quickly cultivate individual life in the advanced universe.
Since advanced technology is required, the shorter the time of each "life cycle" should be, the better.
The individual lives in the universe left behind in the last "life cycle" directly enter the next cycle. Wouldn't it be possible to shorten the time required for each cycle?
Moreover, they have personally experienced the failure of evolution, so they will definitely understand the wrong way of evolution!
"Suppose there is some kind of 'program' in the Ninggeng galaxy where we are. In the 'program' setting, the final individual life in the universe in each 'life cycle' will swallow up all the individual lives in the universe, then this The 'program' is the default, and the individual lives in the universe in the last 'life cycle' will not enter the next cycle."
"But in fact, it is impossible for an individual life in the universe to swallow up all the individual lives in the entire Ninggeng Galaxy. Then there will naturally be individual lives in the universe left over from the last 'life cycle'. And since the 'program' is set like this, it must be corrected."
"What is the result of the correction? That is, the individual lives in the universe in the previous batch of cycles will all die. And their deaths must not be wasted, so they will all die at the hands of the technological civilization of the universe."
After Jing listened, he thought about it carefully and felt something was wrong.
"Uh, can we add the existence of an 'observer' to this possible 'program'? The 'program' is dead, but this 'observer' is alive. Can you understand?"
"Although I failed to evolve to a higher level, it doesn't mean that I have no brains."
Jing looked around: "You really have no brains in a material sense."
"I don't want to get entangled in this meaningless issue. You want to say that after the 'program' is set, there is actually an 'observer' to maintain the operation of the 'program', right?"
"Yes! The 'program' is a framework, but it cannot set everything in detail. After all, the universe is infinite, and even a small Ninggeng galaxy can have countless possibilities. All you need is an 'observer' role to maintain the operation of the 'program'."
"You mean, there is an extremely ancient life in the Ninggeng Galaxy. He observes everything in the Ninggeng Galaxy. He follows the operation of the 'program', maintains the settings of the 'program', and keeps everything that happens in the 'program' 'Things that have not been considered within the scope are re-amended to the scope of the 'procedure'."
Wu thought, he seemed to have never thought about it in this direction.
The reason why Jing thinks like this is because of strange thoughts.
Jing increasingly felt that his entry into the Ninggeng Galaxy was related to the Star Civilization.
Advanced beings may not be able to seal off a galaxy, so is it possible for top-level beings?
Is it possible that the Ninggeng Galaxy is the place where the Star Civilization cultivates advanced individual life in the universe?
In such a long period of time, no advanced individual life in the universe has been born in the Ninggeng Galaxy. The Star Civilization will naturally feel that there is a problem.
But for some reason, the Star Civilization could not directly interfere with the operation of the Ninggeng Galaxy, so they sent "Chen Jing" in.
"But as a top-level civilization, since the Star Civilization has created such a place to cultivate advanced individual life in the universe, then they must have ways to correct the problems that arise."
"And even if you want to send someone, you don't need to send someone in from a civilization like the 'Earth Civilization' where controllable nuclear fusion has not even been born. You can just send someone from your own civilization, and bring someone from controllable nuclear fusion to Can’t all the technologies of vacuum zero-point energy solve the problem?”
Jing couldn't understand, so he could only put the problem aside for now.
He can only find the answer to this question by himself.
Except for Nuo who knew about Qi Si's existence because he had threatened his life, Jing was not prepared to tell the rest.
"Jing, the existence of the 'observer' is indeed very possible. As you said, his existence can modify the 'program' to consider a comprehensive area, just like the individual lives of the universe left behind in the 'life cycle'."
"In the 'program', these individual lives in the universe have already died, so they should not come into contact with the individuals in the next cycle, so the 'observer' let these individuals die at the hands of the technological civilization of the universe."
After Wu thought about all the events he had observed in the past 30 million years, he confirmed Jing's guess.
It is indeed more reasonable to add "observer" on the basis of "program".
"Wu, do you think that in one hundred thousand years, can we successfully defeat Tiantu Civilization and impact individual life in the advanced universe?"
"There is no problem in defeating the Tiantu civilization, but attacking advanced individuals. In my past observations of the 'life cycle', the last period of time was basically around one hundred thousand years. The shortest time, after defeating the cosmic technological civilization, only Fifty thousand years are left.”
"But Wu, have you ever thought about what if we didn't sprint to higher levels in the last period of time? Since the 'program' has been set, it is a cycle that occurs once every three million years. If we take the initiative to break the cycle, then 'observation' Will the "Observer" appear? Can we be sure that the "Observer" and the "Program" exist?"
Wu had to admit that Jing did a lot of tricks.
Actively provoking the "program" and "observer" of the "life cycle", Wu can at least imagine the process of Jingzai becoming a brilliant firework.
However, Wu feels that this is indeed a method.
But Wu didn't agree.
"To take the initiative to break the cycle, what we need to face is very likely the wrath of the 'observer'. Jing, we may all die by then. And once we die, the next batch of individuals in the cycle will have a negative impact on the 'life cycle' Nothing will be known anymore.”
"I survived by chance, and it took me 30 million years to meet you and Nuo, two cosmic miracles that could help us get rid of the 'life cycle'. If we don't take the initiative to challenge the 'program', then the 'program' will mean nothing to me. This individual that has failed to evolve and 'died' is in a state of acquiescence, but once provoked, how long do we have to wait until the next me?"
"Jing, maybe you think I am afraid of death, but in fact I have tried to tell everything in full, to tell the existence of 'program' and 'life cycle' to those individuals in the cycle, you know that Is it the end of a group of individual lives in the universe?”
"It's still death. The 'Observers' didn't even appear, they died in various accidents. In the end, in order to ensure my existence, they took the initiative to devour me."
"Do you remember the Tide Nebula? That time, the final surviving individual was the Tide. In order for me to continue to pass on this secret, we can evolve before the three million year deadline."
"Now that I think about that time, what we finally provoked was just the 'Observer'. Chao Zhi's approach finally made us comply with the 'Procedure'. Because we still abide by the 'life cycle' time in the 'Program', so the 'Observer' 'Didn't do anything to me."
After Jing finished listening, he was silent for a long time.
In thirty million years, Wu has not experienced various attempts.
But try again and again, failed again and again.
Wu understood that his active intervention could not free his blood relatives from the "program" setting of the Ninggeng Galaxy.
"Jing, I remember it very clearly. 18 million years ago, that time, I tried to tell everything, and before the end of that 'life cycle', the final cosmic individual Qin said to me before evolution failed."
"'Wu, we failed. According to what you said, we seem to have failed again. But it doesn't matter. After all, every cycle is us. We are just a small failure before we succeed! Wu, maybe it won't be me next time, but please wait for us to come back, your blood relatives will succeed!'"
Perhaps not every individual life in the universe knew that they were going through a cycle in every "cycle of life", but when Wu tried to break the "cycle of life", those individual lives in the universe chose to save Wu after knowing that they could not break the cycle.
Take the initiative to enter the "life cycle" and take the initiative to start the next "life cycle" after three million years.
Let Wu take this secret with him.
They believe that one time, they will be able to break this "cycle of life."
