4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
1874 Strange Practice
This seems almost ... almost over?
In front of Lin's eyes ... is a city.
The city is located underground, and its buildings are mainly composed of some transparent materials, and various structures inside can be seen from the outside.
However, it is now clear that the buildings are empty.
Because, everything in it was cleaned up by micro-machines ...
Then, Lin cleaned up the micro-machine, and now the place is empty, but it is not completely empty.
You can also see some creatures with transparent bodies gathered under their transparent buildings. These are living individuals. They should be discussing how to rebuild their kingdom.
Lin has fought this kind of battle many times.
In connecting the world, Lin found many micro-machines that were invading civilization, and then gave them one by one. After each battle, Lin calculated the number of them.
Now Lin has proceeded to almost clean up all the two-kilometer-diameter mechanical fog, but Lin feels that they will not proliferate here, so ... there should be more than that.
However, the behavior of micro-machines is indeed very strange. Apart from killing the aborigines, they did not move anything here.
They did not increase the quantity by using the things here as 'food', and they did not dig elsewhere. All the micro-machines restricted the battlefield to a civilized territory.
The battle did not extend to other places, and after the battle, they stayed in one place and did not leave.
It seems that the tasks of this group of micro-machines only ended after occupying the civilized territory, and there is no follow-up task.
Or that the follow-up tasks have to wait a long time and do not require any preparation, so can they do nothing during this period?
Lin has become very curious about this point. Lin has now destroyed most of the micro-machine occupation points ... At present, there are only two points left.
Now, Lin intends to temporarily ... not attack them, but observe them.
It is difficult to observe micro-machines, and it is quite easy to find them mixed into them. The reason is very simple. The area where they are covered by the energy of the sea of fear, if there is something without fear energy mixed in them, it will definitely be discovered .
Even if the appearance is not as good as it looks.
However, just like Lin had mixed into the Nao Ling's battleship before, there are still some ways to mix them in.
Now, a small arm of Lynn has been mixed into a group of micro-machines ...
This place ... is also underground, originally belonged to a tiny biological civilization, and is now completely occupied by micro-machinery, Lin is now looking at them here, to see if they will take the next step.
Lin's arms are called ... Pseudo-Shi.
The name is very simple, and its composition is very simple, like a stone with a diameter of only about one millimeter.
But the "significance" of this weapon itself is not simple, because it is one made by Lin ... a mixed weapon, which itself has fewer parts of cell-like organisms, and Lin mixed some other materials.
The dividing line between cell-like organisms and non-cell-like organisms is actually not very obvious. The collective term for cell-like organisms is usually composed of most of the body's cells.
But in fact, they don't have to require cells to make up the body. It doesn't matter if the body is equipped with other structures, as long as it can be controlled by the brain.
Therefore, it is similar to Lin.
If you send commands through cells, controlling other non-cells such as metal or other components is very simple ... very simple, many of Lin ’s battleships are like this.
And Lin has always wanted to replace some parts of the cell with non-cellular structures that can be directly commanded by Lin's "thoughts". So far, only the parts of the cell that belong to Lin can be directly commanded by thoughts. What happens to the material?
Lynn did a lot of tests, and there were many failed tests at first, but this "quasi-stone" was one of the successful tests.
Lin replaced part of its internal structure, but has not yet completely used her thoughts to directly direct the internal non-cellular structure, but through the original cell structure through some methods to let them operate according to Lin's ideas.
However, Lin felt that it was almost possible to find out how to directly use thoughts to command the non-cellular structure. After complete control, she could create non-cellular arms.
Mainly through the study of bus-like organisms, and Lin recently felt that ... if you study gel organisms, you can learn more about the situation.
Lin has already studied some of the arms of gel creatures before, but Lin found that their different arms are somewhat different in structure, and some arms are very close to Lin's idea.
All in all, it is very difficult to find the "pseudo-stone" made by Lin now, it imitates the feeling of real rock.
However, the real stone will definitely not move, so Lin moved the stone here during the micro-machine and biological warfare here. At that time, Lin could avoid the micro-machines that were busy fighting by hiding it.
When they are finished, the micromachine begins to search the surrounding environment. At this time, the pseudo stone enters a stationary state to observe the micromachine's activities.
It's like Lynn is doing now.
The whole country of underground civilization is about 100 meters in diameter. Lin has put a lot of artificial stones in many places. They are observing the micro-machines.
Now, Lin can see that a large number of micro-machines are gathering in the huge cave space.
Because this civilization itself has no buildings, they basically use their bodies to live together, so there is a lot of empty space here.
Now this space is of course occupied by micro-machines. They look like they are floating in the air, but they are actually glued together.
Each micro-machine is holding each other ... and is gathering into a mass. This mass is very small, so it looks like particles in the mist at a far distance.
Then they use a small number of individuals to form the "bridges" connecting these groups. These "bridges" can only be seen from the perspective of observing microorganisms.
So they usually seem to be floating like fog, but in fact every particle in this 'fog' is connected.
They can disperse and reorganize new connections in a very fast way to connect different individuals around and move. This is what they often do. Lin also notices that they often ... assemble each other.
It is a group of micro-machines that constantly transform a group of homogenous into another shape, and then this modified homogenous conversely modifies them.
The method of modification is usually to put a lot of things that look like armor and weapons on the companion, but ... sometimes they may modify each other as they are, disassemble everything, and then reassemble.
It feels like I'm practicing. In short, Lin looks at them almost doing this kind of thing, not doing anything else ...
During her observation, Lin also discovered that there are many types of these micro-machines.
A lot of them are completely like a machine, that is, there are many limbs, and the fighting method basically depends on these limbs to attack and disassemble the other party.
This type often disassembles each other's assembly from each other and installs new ones, and then takes them back to the original one. This behavior seems to be practiced loading and unloading, but in fact it seems meaningless.
Other types are used for transportation. They are relatively large and can store things. They are equipped with some explosive weapons.
But the most common species here is a species like ... amoeba that has no fixed shape and size,
These 'Amoeba species' have also been seen on floating rock fields, but the proportion is not large, but almost all are here, and the other types only occupy 20% to 30% of the number.
There are also some species that Lin has seen in the floating rock do not appear here.
In general, micro-machines should be able to quickly modify each of their own individuals and allow them to do various jobs when they have different needs.
But Lin didn't see this kind of situation here. They never transformed one species into another.
In addition to this, Lin also observed another group of micro-machines elsewhere, and their situation was similar.
Even after Lin solved all of their companions, the two groups of micro-machines occupying the civilized territory did not want to reinforce, nor did they want to increase their strength. To attack them.
Lin continued to look to see if other civilizations had been attacked, but for now it has not been found, because these civilizations are still easy to find when they are attacked.
But now there are only two groups of micro-machines. Lin thinks that the micro-machines have been completely solved.
But even the last remaining groups have no special behavior at all, which means ...
Lin had such an idea.
This civilized attack may just be ... confusing.
Yes ... Let Lin target this group of machines that attack civilization.
Because they did not know that Lin had been here long ago, but knew that Lin might chase them through the teleport point, so these micro-machines came here to deliberately attack various civilizations to attract Lin ’s attention.
There must be another group doing something else, and Lin thought it should be like this.
Otherwise, it ’s really weird that these micro-machines do nothing.
In this case, it will not be easy to find them, if they are intentionally hidden ...
However, Lin felt that it was necessary to guard against them ... It was still very simple.
