Gods: The Swarm - Chapter 609

c609 Seedling

In front of the magnificent temple, a large number of wise rats gathered in the square to hold a sacrificial ceremony.

The statue standing in the center is less than 100 meters high. Compared with the huge size of the silicon-based beast, it is not really magnificent.

However, this statue is made of a whole piece of special mineral crystal as the base material, and is carefully carved by the wise rat priests.

When the soul of the silicon-based creature is exhausted and enters death, the body will naturally disintegrate over time and turn into special minerals containing energy.

The high-concentration energy stored in some organs will condense into energy crystals.

The wise rats dug through the earth’s crust for several days under the guidance of the oracle, and finally found this super-large mineral crystal used to carve the statue.

From this, it can be inferred that in the ancient times of this planet, there were silicon-based beasts of the order of meters, and there were quite a few of them, but they were naturally eliminated during the evolution process.

The population that survived by chance gradually became smaller in size as it evolved, and its intelligence gradually improved.

Among the existing silicon-based species, the smaller the body, the higher the intelligence. The intelligent rat, which is less than half the height, is the best example.

“Concentration is the essence!”

This slogan is the truth that the intelligent rat population has always regarded as a guiding principle after being blessed by the true God and being able to open the people’s wisdom.

After the establishment of the scientific religion, it was deeply engraved on the back of the church monument, thus permanently establishing the absolute dominance of the intelligent rat population in the church and the supreme glory of the shepherd of God.

“Great God of Wisdom and Truth, your wisdom is as vast as the universe, truth leaps at your fingertips, and all living things crawl at your feet, praising your supreme grace in sowing the seeds of wisdom…”

The Pope, who was in charge of the main sacrifice, walked up to the altar step by step, knelt in front of the statue, and devoutly led the believers to chant the prayer in unison.

At this time, there were only tens of thousands of wise rats in the temple square, but this did not mean that the scale of the believers of the Church of Science was only that small.

On the contrary, after the wise rat population swept the entire planet, it quickly established a ruling structure that integrated politics and religion, and the development momentum of the Church of Science became more and more rapid.

For other silicon-based populations, if their wisdom reaches the corresponding standards, but they resist the teaching of doctrines, refuse to believe in and worship the true God, they will be classified as heretics by the Inquisition.

All heretic populations will be hunted down crazily and uprooted.

Although the true god is merciful and has specially delivered oracles to prevent other intelligent populations from being easily exterminated, the captured heretics will be kept in captivity by the wise rats, and cruel means will be used to accelerate their reproduction, and even use factors to force them to reproduce as many mutant individuals as possible.

On this wild planet, the reproduction of known silicon-based species is based on asexual reproduction.

Individual silicon-based organisms will distribute their genetic information equally to multiple new silicon-based structures through a process of self-splitting.

This special silicon-based cell containing a lot of information is stored in the form of silicon-based polymers. Compared with ordinary silicon-based cells, the characteristic of genetic cells is that they almost completely replicate the biological coding structure and functional information of the mother organism.

As the biological individuals grow, these genetic materials will change with each self-evolution or mutation.

When the organism enters the mature stage, the genetic material will lose its evolutionary characteristics, and the special silicon-based cells will begin to divide.

The cell nucleus will first divide to ensure that the genetic material is copied and distributed. Subsequently, part of the body of the silicon-based organism will also be independent and gradually form a new individual.

When the redistribution process comes to an end, the new individual will separate from the original individual to form one or more new life forms that exist independently.

During the growth of the separated new individual, new silicon-based compounds and molecules are synthesized to improve its body structure, and eventually mature to a state where it can metabolize and reproduce independently.

The special reproduction mechanism of silicon-based organisms and the controllability of genetic material make human intervention extremely feasible.

Those heretical populations have a high degree of evolution and have reached a corresponding level of wisdom. They are undoubtedly the best research templates and consumables.

The faster they reproduce, the more consumables they will have, and the more and faster scientific research results will emerge.

In fact, the initiator of this type of research is not the rats, but Han Fei himself.

But it would be too time-consuming and labor-intensive to rely on himself alone. After all, the probability and predictability of silicon-based gene mutations are very low, and the required research samples and number of experiments are huge.

Han Fei knows that sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood, and the more people gather, the higher the flames, especially in the field of scientific research.

The fastest scientific research assistant that can be cultivated on his wild planet is undoubtedly the intelligent rat.

The foundation of the intelligent rat population is not bad, and the original growth process is nothing more than a lack of correct guidance and enlightenment.

For example, in the past few years of China, the speed of civilization progress was far faster than in the past million years, but the level of human wisdom has not actually leaped forward.

Because a mere million years is still too small compared to the long years required for species evolution.

Wisdom is innate, intelligence can be cultivated, and knowledge can be inherited.

After Han Fei enlightened the group of intelligent rats, he found that their ability to understand and absorb knowledge was no less than that of most other species.

An unexpected discovery surprised Han Fei so much that even the shadow of divine power shook violently.

After the baptism of divine power, the intelligent rats, not only the prototype of the natural magic array composed of silicon-based neurons in their bodies, will become more perfect and mysterious.

Moreover, the leapfrog evolution of the silicon-based brain not only has similar information storage functions, but also has great growth potential in the direction of precise calculation and information processing.

Isn’t this a pure and pollution-free silicon-based crystal that grew out of the ground?

In addition, silicon-based organisms can communicate through mental fluctuations, which is wireless brain wave information transmission!

“Oh my god!”

Looking at the conclusion he came to, Han Fei’s brain trembled!

Isn’t this a complete foundation for the birth of an intelligent machine race?

Han Fei doesn’t care whether he will create a disaster race and bring great hidden dangers to the real universe by enlightening the silicon-based rats.

This is not something that a mere “pseudo-god” needs to consider, let alone his own followers or Zerg, and the cosmic disaster is just a matter of sprinkling water.

Such high-quality rat resources, if not well developed, wouldn’t it be a waste?

Driven by this idea, Han Fei no longer spared his divine power and repeatedly granted divine baptism to the pope and priests of the religion of science.

Even the rats of the middle and lower classes could be bathed in divine grace after accumulating enough contributions.

During the baptism of divine power, the great god of wisdom and truth would also give them enlightenment and carry out cramming-style knowledge inheritance.

A huge amount of knowledge was instilled into their brains and turned into stored information.

They only needed to spend time to understand, sort out, and summarize, and they could quickly transform it into the knowledge they truly mastered.

The civilization level of the wise rat race, led by the sages who had received divine enlightenment, began to leap forward.

Especially under the guidance of the oracle, most sages were devoted to the field of scientific research, and more and more scientific research rats emerged.

These scientific research madmen have never been influenced by the morality of human society, nor have they been exposed to scientific research ethics. They only believe in the radical idea of ​​result-oriented theory.

Without morality, they will not be bound by morality.

When it comes to scientific research, they will do whatever it takes.

Especially when using heretical populations for experiments, in order to obtain scientific research results, all kinds of means can be called crazy!
