Chapter 355 Accelerated Exploration
It's not just him, everyone is anxious.
But these scientists are anxious because they want to explore the unknown faster, and it's an anxiety of unsatisfied curiosity... When the research on seawater specimens failed, they knew that the complexity of this Gaia creature might be beyond imagination.
Yu Yifeng is different. The extreme anxiety in his heart is urging him to leave the planet as soon as possible!
And this mood is getting stronger and stronger, as if as time goes by, there will be an extinction crisis!
Since he can't think of other reasons, he can only secretly raise his vigilance. Maybe this "Gaia creature" is more dangerous than humans imagine.
Maybe there is something inexplicably unknown about this planet that has not been discovered...
Maybe... it's not "Gaia creature", but strong artificial intelligence?
Drones and satellites are tirelessly exploring this planet... Especially some places that are rarely visited and smoky.
At this moment, Yu Yifeng had a flash of inspiration and directly dialed a satellite phone.
He wanted to ask Calvin if he had any premonition of danger.
After being released from prison, Calvin has been responsible for the production of entertainment culture, producing various movies, games, TV series, etc., and it is quite good... This is also his old business.
As a result, when asked this question, he also had a similar sense of crisis!
"I don't know what the crisis is! But it is definitely not good, Captain, run, run!" Calvin said in horror.
"This time I am implicated, which means that it is not safe to stay in the Deep Space... This crisis will affect the Deep Space 900,000 kilometers away!"
And he directly said that humans should leave this weird planet as soon as possible, the sooner the better, and it is best to escape within a year!
As long as you escape, the crisis will be over.
But what is the crisis?
Calvin doesn't know, and even the time can be estimated.
Yu Yifeng hung up the phone with annoyance, touched his temple, and felt very contradictory... Just escape inexplicably?
Although there is no shortage of life planets in the universe...
But there is also a Gaia creature here, and there are many scientific research investigations that have not been done in time. It would be a pity to give up like this.
"Gaia creatures are absolutely rare... rare on a galactic scale!"
He shook his head and studied the current situation carefully.
First, people must find out "Gaia creatures" as soon as possible. Does it exist? Can it be domesticated?
People don't want to kill "Gaia creatures" directly. If a nuclear bomb is really used to turn the ocean upside down, the entire algae population may not be completely destroyed, but the group consciousness may be directly destroyed.
This is what people don't want to see...
According to scientists' conjecture, "Gaia creatures" are formed by regular and connected algae, but not every group of algae is a Gaia creature.
Just like human brain cells, if all the cells in a person's brain are replaced, even if these cells are not damaged, it is estimated that individual consciousness will not exist...
Now many ocean areas have been bombed, maybe this Gaia creature has been damaged, but humans don't know the extent of the damage.
Of course... Compared with humans, it is definitely not fragile.
Second, after detailed discussion and certification, more than 70% of senior government officials believe that if this creature can really be domesticated...the benefits are of course self-evident!
Compared with the huge benefits that can be obtained, a little risk can still be tried!
"If there is really danger, the worst thing is to abandon this planet and run away! Anyway, there are many ownerless planets in the universe, and even life planets are not rare!"
"Surpassing the speed of light is the best protective barrier. No one knows where we are running to!"
In this case, people finally reached a consensus.
But how to tame Gaia creatures?
... I don't know at all!
No one can think of a particularly good way. They can only try to find out the nature of this creature through research bit by bit...
It's always right to explore the specific characteristics first.
"Too slow."
Yu Yifeng did not make his anxiety public. After all, such things are not based on empty words. Speaking rashly will only increase panic.
He just talked to a few confidants. Zhao Yao, Xu Yunjin and others all believe in Yu Yifeng very much. They all agree that if there is really danger, they should speed up. They can't study so slowly. No one knows when the results will come out.
If it is really delayed for one day, it will be dangerous for one day. Such research is absolutely unreliable.
There is another breakthrough, that is the indigenous people on land. Whether there are Gaia creatures or not, there must be a lot of records of the original indigenous life!
"Nuclear war will not kill everyone, there must be people who survived... maybe in some deep mountains and old forests." Yu Yifeng frowned and thought.
"Knock, knock, knock" Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!" He said immediately with a thought in his mind.
The person who came was Xu Yunjin. He hurriedly brought a few documents and handed them to Yu Yifeng: "Look, our unmanned submarine had detected some special electromagnetic bands before losing contact. It's a pity that we didn't pay much attention to it at the beginning. We thought it was emitted by ordinary marine life and didn't do any key detection."
"Now this band is much weaker, as if it is deliberately hidden. Instruments closer to the coast cannot detect it. Unless we send another batch of submarines to the deep sea..."
Yu Yifeng looked carefully, and these documents were full of densely packed radio waves, which looked like a person's brain waves.
But these data only had a dozen pages, and the sample was not sufficient.
Hearing Xu Yunjin's words, he shook his head: "Don't send the submarine first. Once it is sent down, the signal will be blocked and then lost. Isn't this sending technology? Let's analyze the existing electromagnetic signals first..."
"By the way, did it respond to the signal we sent?"
Xu Yunjin also had a bitter face and shook his head: "Not yet... It remains silent. Moreover, it did not respond to the landing spacecraft we sent."
"From the situation of the submarine losing contact, we can be sure that this unknown creature must still be alive... I don't know if it is recovering from injuries, or holding back a big move, or studying our submarine technology!"
"The first situation is easy to say, but the latter two situations are terrible. After all, it is difficult for us to detect the movement under the deep sea..." Xu Yunjin said impatiently.
People's "seawater specimen research" has not yielded any results. If you want to be fast, you can only hope for land exploration.
The landing spacecrafts in the previous few times were drones, and they did not carry any creatures. These spaceships were just to test the other side's reaction, even if they were bombed, it would not matter much.
As a result, the unmanned spaceships landed smoothly.
After several consecutive successes, it was almost the turn of humans to officially debut...
"If you want to speed up the research, you must land on the planet as soon as possible... Whether it is to find information or capture natives, it is much faster than machines! By the way, our robots have found some underground shelters, and there may be survivors inside!"
"Shelters!"
Hearing this latest news, Yu Yifeng stood up "suddenly" and walked back and forth in the captain's room several times. He began to study the map handed over by Xu Yunjin.
He finally asked: "Regarding the text deciphering work of the indigenous civilization of Dig Star..."
"It has been completed for the most part! The preliminary machine translation has come out and can be barely used!" Xu Yunjin said immediately.
After so many days, the robot has collected a lot of useful things in bits and pieces, including various books, pictures, electronic materials, etc.
It is only more than ten years away from the outbreak of the nuclear war, not tens of millions of years for the Nix civilization, so these things can be easily found.
Moreover, human technology has also improved a lot, and the vigorous development of weak artificial intelligence has made "machine translation" more reliable.
"Since the translation program has been developed, then..." Yu Yifeng looked at the green in the distance and made up his mind: "Execute the landing mission!"
"Yes! Guarantee to complete the mission!" Xu Yunjin said immediately, and saluted solemnly.
