The Original Seeker

Chapter 202: selfish gene

"Is there another consciousness lurking in our genes?" He suddenly had this chilling thought.

Bai Mo remembered that he had read such a book, which used anthropomorphic techniques to regard genes as a selfish existence with independent consciousness.

According to it, a large number of human activities, including the obsession with inheriting the family line and the natural closeness to relatives with blood relations, are essentially the infinite pursuit of self-replication of the genes hidden in it.

Organisms are just carriers of genes, and most of the so-called desires are actually dominated by genes. When he saw such a view at the time, he just laughed it off, but now looking back on it, it's a bit creepy, because before the cells The unified decomposition of DNA is too neat and unreasonable.

It's just that no matter how many times Bai Mo has done experiments related to DNA extraction with cell samples from other organisms or even other people, there has never been a similar crash. It seems that he is just a special case, and all the conjectures are nothing but unprovable conjectures.

For this kind of question that is obviously beyond his ability and has a serious conspiracy theory color, he decided to put it aside first, and wait until he has stronger power and more effective research methods in the future.

"Besides, the path I'm taking seems a little uneconomical. The spiritual map I have collected through hard work can only be reduced to fuel for the birth of a new body, and all the currently developed spiritual arts are based on the human body. My step , it may be that the stride is too large.”

Where there is gain, there is loss. This experiment shattered the shackles that restricted him from becoming stronger, but the advanced evolution also led to excessive outliers. The information on the entire contribution point system was basically in line with Bai Mo's new The body has lost its reference meaning, and all groping has to be started from scratch step by step by myself.

No one understands what the original substance is, and it is impossible for him to take himself to be sliced by others. Although the thinking and calculation speed of the new body has made another leap forward after the breakthrough, the research work has suddenly changed from countless people. The brainstorming and teamwork of the team turned into a single person's avenue alone, and the overall speed of exploration still slowed down significantly.

"Since both the current body and other external substances can be assimilated into the original substance, then I don't need to eat my own body first, even if assimilating it can make it stronger faster."

From then on, through his active control, the original substance no longer assimilated the surrounding internal structure, but slowly swallowed the excess water in the body and the spiritual energy inhaled to strengthen itself.

Bai Mo carefully maintains the integrity of his body, because he is not sure whether the path he is taking is right or wrong, just in case, maybe someone will find a new way to evolve without destroying the structure of the spirit pivot in the future, and there is an original version. body, there is the possibility of a new life.

Lingshu still has too many secrets to discover, this time it was just an accident that allowed him to "cultivate" the "primordial spirit" and be able to survive without his body.

He never thought that there was only one path. He also learned from the old man in Profound Sky Continent that even with a mature cultivation system like theirs, there are five paths to immortality. The initial power system should be more The contention of a hundred schools of thought.

In New Ziliuhai, seven people representing the supreme power of the entire federation started their daily regular meeting.

In this nearly a year, with the support of the human and material resources of the entire Huaya Federation, all the members of the seven-member meeting have entered the fusion stage, and have become high-level ability users who can deter one side by strength alone .

This new species that has sprung up like mushrooms after rain is naturally the number one contributor to allowing a few old people who were originally over 70 years old to enter the fusion stage faster than countless young people in such a short period of time.

They provide sufficient sources of natural resources and earth treasures for the overlord humans on land, allowing some lucky boys to soar into the sky. But behind the adventure, how many people who took risks to make a fortune buried their bones in the wilderness, only God knows.

A large number of adventurers eager to get rich overnight either died at the hands of mutated creatures or at the hands of humans, and the dreams of countless people were buried in secret realms large and small.

The time of mutation evolution is not long enough, and most creatures have not yet accumulated the ability to face heavy thermal weapons. Therefore, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of the regular army, even powerful mutant beasts that appear in isolation will most likely turn into some human beings in the end. The dishes on the plate become the food for them to maintain their status.

Through power and wealth to accelerate the acquisition of power, and then use the newly acquired power to seize power and wealth, the tearing of social hierarchy becomes more obvious, and even the original only fairness—the length of life begins to become unbalanced.

A small number of people have indeed successfully changed their fate against the sky through luck and became the upper class of society, but as a price, society has begun to truly move towards a direction where success depends on mutation rather than hard work.

"... The reconstruction of the six newly integrated provinces in the south has been basically completed." Rong Jingya, as Ye Zi's secretary, reported to several people present about the original southern countries.

"After a year of re-management of household registration, the six provinces now have a total of more than 21.3 million households, with a total population of 83.22 million. The society has basically stabilized."

"The main management problem is still language communication. Although there is a method of communication that crosses languages, such as mental fluctuations, the minimum standard used is the ability of the life field, and others can only listen..."

"Our long-term goal is to completely digest this new territory of more than one million square kilometers within 20 years. According to the development trend of the sea race and our human beings, more and more of them can go ashore, and so can our ability to enter the water. More and more, the current situation of sit-in battle will not last long." Liu Zhen said his opinion, and the recorder next to him was also writing non-stop.

"And we have to face the pressure of the two forest secret realms at the same time. It is still unknown how many powerful mutant animals and plants are hidden in it. Once they emerge, I am afraid that the entire rear will rot."

After the Linghe Autumn incident, some secret realms, large and small, appeared on the land of the whole world. Most of them are the products of the special local environment and the seemingly omnipotent aura, obtained through some unknown reactions, among which there are The four largest forest secrets.

They are the Yunnan Cloud Secret Realm that stretches from the southwest of the Huaya Federation to South Asia; the Bethleigh Secret Realm from the northeast of the Huaya Federation to the entire Siberia of Mao Russia; the Soma Secret Realm across southern Africa; and finally the Amazon Secret Realm in South America .

After awakening, almost all mutated land creatures will head towards these secret realms. After humans discovered this peculiar phenomenon, they also conducted various investigations, which confirmed that there is an extremely large protective energy field covering every secret realm.

Although people can go in, all kinds of electronic equipment cannot be used normally inside, and many metals will quickly denature in it, resulting in damage to machine parts.

Relevant researchers speculate that the energy field is produced by the resonance of countless mutated plants, but there is still no definite evidence.
