Panshi, command room.
Zhou Yu walked back and forth, waiting for the results of the biopsy while considering the follow-up plan.
In the vast sea of stars, it is difficult to find a planet suitable for human survival. We must not wipe out this alien species just because some unknown creatures hinder the "Spark" plan.
Just when Zhou Yu was formulating a battle plan, Zhou Xiaozhi suddenly said: "Commander, the alien biological biopsy report is out!"
"Well! Report the results quickly." Zhou Yu paused, looked up at the command screen, and asked impatiently.
"Commander, this species is a biomechanical species with a flexible metal shell. The base metals are: iron, silver, aluminum, zinc, tin... The ratios are: 11.21%, 7.69%, 4.19%... The liquid in their bodies is made of permanganate. , hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and a special liquid mixture, the ratios are 22.4%, 9.71% respectively... The reproductive method of this species is to divide and reproduce, feeding on metal minerals..." Zhou Xiaozhi reported to Zhou Yuhui in detail .
Listening to Zhou Xiaozhi's introduction, Zhou Yu asked in confusion: "Biological machines, are they machines or living things?"
"Commander, they are neither living creatures nor machines. They are mechanical bodies composed of all or part of biological bodies or life-like bodies, and mechanical components. The difference between them and living things is that they do not have autonomous life, but they have life reflections. ." Professor Smith answered Zhou Xiaozhi.
"Yes, most biomachines combine the advantages of biology and machinery, and overcome some of their shortcomings, such as the short lifespan of organisms, long training cycles, prone to mistakes and diseases, etc. Ordinary machinery consumes a lot of energy, has low power, and requires frequent maintenance. , is a species that is different from biological and mechanical species." Zhou Xiaozhi added.
Zhou Yu's expression changed, he looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and asked: "Life machines, so they are not naturally born species, but are manufactured?"
"Commander, the probability of natural birth is very low, less than one in ten thousand." Zhou Xiaozhi replied.
Zhou Xiaozhi's answer indirectly acknowledged the answer to the question, and Zhou Yu immediately darkened his face.
"Commander, I'm afraid there is a civilization that we don't know about on this planet." Professor Smith said with a wry smile.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu's scalp went numb. Just now he was thinking of destroying this creature, but now he knew it was created. Now he was in big trouble.
Zhou Yu took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Xiaozhi, what is the technological level of the alien civilization that manufactures this kind of life machine?" Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and asked.
"Commander, this biomechanical species has biological instincts such as foraging and growth, self-replication, danger avoidance... and other biological instincts. The technology of combining life and machinery is very perfect, beyond Xiaozhi's ability. The technological level of other fields of this civilization is lacking. The data cannot be fully analyzed," Zhou Xiaozhi replied.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu's face tightened and he muttered to himself in confusion: "We haven't found them for so many years. Are they observing us? That's not right! If so, why are they showing up now?"
…
After hearing Zhou Yu's question, all the scientists and officers present frowned and thought deeply.
For several years, they have conducted a blanket search on Aquamarine, and found no trace of intelligent civilization surviving on this planet. However, this biomechanical species was created, and now the problem is serious.
"Commander, we have searched the entire continent, and there is no sign of civilization. The top priority is to survey the underground world and find this civilization." Major General Zhang Heng suggested.
"Commander, I think we should not provoke them. After all, we only have one Rock." Professor Smith reminded.
"I think so too. They are just driving us away and not killing us. Otherwise, it would be impossible for all the soldiers to withdraw from the base." Deputy Commander Li Ming looked at the command screen and added.
"Commander, although I don't know their survival mode, they have no space combat capability and we are completely invincible. Therefore, I suggest that we have a comprehensive understanding of them." Major General Zhang Heng looked at Zhou Yu and suggested strongly. .
Zhou Yu glanced around the crowd, nodded seriously, and said, "No matter what, we can't give up on Water Blue Star."
"Xiaozhi, add 1,000 sets of laser drills, deploy mechanical troops, and comprehensively survey this continent." Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and ordered.
"Yes, Commander." Zhou Xiaozhi readily agreed.
"The entire Panshi ship has entered a state of combat readiness. No one is allowed to leave their posts unless there are special circumstances!" Zhou Yu looked at everyone and ordered.
"Yes, Commander." Everyone looked at Zhou Yu and responded in unison.
Soon, the entire Panshi ship entered a highly tense wartime state.
…
In the distant unknown star field, the Panshi is about to face an unknown civilization. The future situation is unknown, and the human civilization of the Earth's mother planet is embarking on a rapid development train.
City in the Sky, the headquarters building of Shining Star Group - the pinnacle of civilization.
In the luxurious office, Zhou Xing sat at his desk and listened absently to Zhou Xiaozhi's report, as if waiting for something to come.
"...Finally, 35 types of Blue Polestar survival gene vaccines have been completed, and it will take two years to complete the entire project." Zhou Xiaozhi looked at Zhou Xing and ended the report.
"Well, there's still plenty of time!" Zhou Xing nodded and continued to ask: "Has there been any major progress in other projects recently?"
"Boss, if there is no 'qualitative' breakthrough, key scientific research projects will progress slowly. However, other scientists have made many breakthroughs recently, such as: PET-digesting bacteria, living lens cornea, new particle discovery... etc., important scientific research results of 3,000 There are more than one project and hundreds of thousands of small scientific research results!" Zhou Xiaozhihui reported.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing showed a happy smile on his face, extremely pleased.
With the use of genetic agents that enhance the human brain, the level of human intelligence has increased by a certain margin. Although it cannot be as abnormal as the great scientist's auxiliary system, the effect is quickly apparent due to the huge size of the entire human race.
Any question that cannot be answered by science is simply due to insufficient IQ level.
Before answering, make assumptions, various assumptions, and then use these assumptions to analyze one by one. As some scientists say, science is the least afraid of failure, because failure often means that the problem is getting worse. When we are close to the road to success, what science fears most is not failure, but when it cannot even find failure, then it is the real despair.
Whether it is from the early ancient classical mechanics, to the culmination of Newtonian mechanics, gravity, to the emergence of the theory of relativity, to quantum theory, a series of scientific successes and scientific explosions, it can be said that scientists are the least afraid of failure. a group of people.
As the overall IQ of all mankind increases, human civilization has once again experienced a technological explosion.
This technological explosion is based on all mankind. It is the same as the five technological revolutions (two scientific revolutions and three technological revolutions) that have occurred in the human world since the 16th century. It is not a technological wave led by the Shining Star Group.
For humans who have entered the interstellar era early, the actual technology of human civilization is at least four to five hundred years behind interstellar civilization.
According to the most reasonable scientific and technological progress analysis data, human civilization should first land on the satellite closest to the earth, that is, the moon. This was achieved in the middle of the twentieth century. Then, human civilization should land on the satellite closest to the earth. On an Earth-like planet, probably at the end of the twenty-first century.
If human civilization develops normally and does not have large-scale wars over competition for survival resources, such as World War II, then human civilization should build a large space station in the early 22nd century, and then slowly transform the satellite into a A window to the cosmic launch spacecraft.
With the formation of the space port, humans have initially adapted to life in outer space, and only after mastering the necessary technologies for survival in space can they try to colonize the planets closest to the earth, such as Mars, and this will not happen until the end of the 22nd century, or perhaps This will only be possible in the early twenty-third century.
After that, human science and technology gradually progressed, and it would not be until around the middle of the 24th century that it would be possible to land on the Earth-like planets in the outermost reaches of the solar system by means of manned spacecraft. Based on this rate of technological progress, human beings would To completely leave the solar system, it will have to be achieved at the end of the twenty-fifth century, or even in the twenty-sixth century. To form a real spaceship fleet and conduct safe navigation between galaxies, at least... it will have to be the twenty-seventh century.
However, due to the factors of the auxiliary system of great scientists, human civilization has entered the interstellar era of opening up the stars and seas in just a few decades. Such a huge span is impossible without flaws.
Zhou Xing is a human being, not a god. He can only focus his research and development efforts on the most critical areas. As for other areas, he is powerless. Fortunately, this explosion of technological waves will fully fill the gap between human civilization and rapid entry into interstellar civilization. Gaps in technology.
Zhou Xing looked at Zhou Xiaozhi with joy and issued an order: "Quickly publish these research reports and increase publicity."
"Okay, boss!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded.
Zhou Xing looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and continued to ask: "Well! How about the antimatter project? Have you obtained any new data?"
"Boss, I just reported on this project. The impact coefficient did not meet the requirements for the emergence of new forms, and the antimatter extraction failed." Zhou Xiaozhi looked at Zhou Xing strangely and replied.
"Well! Did you fail?" Zhou Xing nodded thoughtfully and told Zhou Xiaozhi: "Try the seventh option."
"Okay, boss!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded, looked at Zhou Xing and asked curiously: "Boss, the global population has exceeded 20 billion, haven't you met the conditions for your promotion mission?"
"It's almost! It's almost! Just a little bit of contribution." Zhou Xing said excitedly.
After saying that, Zhou Xing's eyes were stunned, and he didn't know where his attention was going.
Zhou Xiaozhi nodded and stood aside and stopped talking. At this time, it was not appropriate to disturb the boss.
At this time, Zhou Xing was staring at the system's property panel, waiting anxiously.

Impact target: 20.21 billion
…
He is still a little short of contribution value, and he has met the three conditions for promotion to an intermediate great scientist: SS influence, 20 billion contribution value, and 20 billion impact target.
With the use of life-extending genetic drugs, all human beings have stopped aging and dying, saving 80 million people who die every year. At the same time, under the federal government's policy of encouraging fertility, the continuation of future generations is no longer a matter of individuals, but a species civilization. The war continues.
Under the threat of alien species civilization and under the propaganda organized by the human federal government, all human beings were proud of increasing their offspring and expanding the scale of the human race.
With the population increasing by 10 billion, it took mankind less than 20 years to accomplish this ambitious goal.
With a population of 20 billion, human civilization will be completed in a shorter time.
Time passed bit by bit, and with the announcement of scientific and technological achievements, Zhou Xing saw that the increase in contribution value was accelerating, 100,000, 200,000...
The contribution value jumped to 20 billion. Zhou Xing was refreshed and said impatiently: "System, I want to settle the task."
"Agree to the task settlement request." The system's voice sounded from Zhou Xing's mind.
"SS main line mission: Advance to Intermediate Level, Mission Completion Conditions: Complete all conditions for Advanced Great Scientist (Intermediate Level), Mission Reward: Special Reward (one copy), Mission Period: None, Mission Failure Penalty: None."
(Task reminder: Host, thanks to your efforts, human civilization has rapidly entered the interstellar era. Your reputation is unmatched, and your influence is unmatched. You lack the hard conditions to advance to the intermediate level of a great scientist. Please achieve it as soon as possible. .)
"Congratulations to the host, you have completed all the conditions for advanced scientist (intermediate level), advanced scientist (intermediate level), host: you have received a special reward." The system replied to Zhou Xing.
As soon as the system finished speaking, a golden parchment floated in Zhou Xing's mind, waiting for him to grab it.
"I have advanced to the intermediate level. Now I want to know your origin. Can you tell me?" Zhou Xing asked the system.
"Yes, please complete the task settlement process first." The system replied with confirmation.
"Really!" Zhou Xing was overjoyed and quickly reached out to grab the parchment scroll.
