How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 80 What is Civilization

As if the wanderer who had been away from home for many years finally saw his elders again, Yongxuan completely ignored Huo Gu and Ming's repeated interruptions, completely immersed in his own world, and chattered out the suffering he had suffered in these past few years.

"Tsk, the most troublesome thing still happened. It's really a wave of unrest and another wave."

Through the continuous narration, both Huo Gu and Ming roughly understood what happened.

Huogu was not surprised that the collectors would give birth to 'wisdom'. It had already anticipated this possibility during the Hadean Eon. Within a short period of time, complete the transformation of 'wisdom' from scratch.

You must know that it took two million years for the terrifying Homo erectus to complete the transformation of 'wisdom' from scratch to something at the stage of Australopithecus.

Could it be said that the time span of the surface has actually passed millions of years?

Huogu was taken aback by his guess, but he later denied this idea, because a million years is enough to erode and damage the container that encapsulates it, and he doesn't think the quality of the container he built can support a million The time span of a year, since it is not out of trouble now, the surface should not have experienced as long as a million years.

【Huogu, I want to discuss something with you. 】

"What's up?"

【How did you create this special body that can communicate. 】

"...What do you want to ask this for?"

Hogu suddenly became alert, intelligent creatures are no joke, especially for these two long-lived species, to be honest, Hogu has already begun to consider, after getting rid of the container, wipe the gatherer population from the planet remove.

At the beginning, if it wasn't for dealing with Ming, an unknown enemy, it wouldn't have considered creating any intelligent life in the first place, because it was too dangerous. Intelligent life can give rise to civilization, but this was enough for Huogu to stop producing intelligence. biological thoughts.

Maybe one day, the intelligent creature created by oneself will suddenly want to prove the question of "what is the internal structure of the Creator?" Huogu dissected it.

Maybe Huogu thinks too badly about the collectors, but science is rigorous, there is no fluke, it will only refer to the actual information and data, and the intelligent creatures that Huogu knows are only human beings, with human virtues, The probability of doing such a thing is as high as 100%.

Even in theology, Jesus was crucified, what an irony.

Huo Gudu could already imagine that he might be nailed to a weird geometric shelf in the future, and be enshrined and prayed by countless collectors. Just thinking about it makes him shudder.

Maybe there were gods around humans in the past, but maybe they were scared away later——Huogu guessed in surprise.

While Huogu was thinking wildly, Ming responded to the message with a coy gesture.

【Well, I also want to make some, because this is really...】

【Cool! 】

【I really want to be able to practice this kind of 'coolness' myself, so please be sure...】

"But I refuse."

Before Ming could finish his words, Huo Gu categorically rejected him.

"Life is no child's play, especially when 'wisdom' is born, and they can form 'civilization'."

"Ming, please remember my words—don't underestimate your own creations, otherwise, sooner or later, you will pay a painful price for it, and this price is far beyond your ability to bear."

Huo Gu's tone was unprecedentedly dignified, which was a side Ming had never seen since spending time with Huo Gu.

Because of the current state, it is easy to intuitively feel the emotions of the interlocutor. Through the dialogue, Ming also felt the fear hidden in the solemnity of Hogu's words.

This made him both curious and frightened, because even at the beginning, it didn't make Hogu feel so frightened.

【...Okay, let me stop asking. 】

Ming is a little bit disappointed, because it really wants to create a special body that can communicate like a collector. After hundreds of millions of years, it still hasn't forgotten its original obsession. It is no longer a lonely family, but sometimes obsession and needs are not necessarily opposite, but may also be a parallel relationship of non-interference.

Huogu sensed Min's emotions and knew that it had misunderstood it, so he replied to explain.

"You don't need to be depressed about this. You are already on this road. Those special bodies created by you on the surface will give birth to special bodies with 'intelligence' sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. 'Growing' is inevitable. events that occurred."

"But I'm a little worried about you, Ming. Your mentality is wrong and you are completely unprepared. Sooner or later, you will suffer a big loss. The existence of 'civilization' is far above you and me."

In the latter sentence, Huogu emphasized the frightening nature of 'civilization', which actually stimulated Ming's curiosity even more.

[So, what exactly is the 'civilization' you've been talking about for a long time? 】

"It's not that I don't want to explain clearly, but it's difficult to explain clearly. Only when you get in touch with 'civilization' can you intuitively understand what I mean by 'civilization'."

Huogu was also very helpless about Ming's complaints. "Civilization" is a concept, it can specifically refer to a certain race, a certain creature, or a certain group, but none of these can represent it, and it has never had an accurate definition Because of this, Huo Gu couldn't give Ming an accurate answer.

The conversation between Ming and Huogu is over, but the one-man show on Yongxuan's side is still not over. The endless words give Huogu the illusion that he is in the campus era again, listening to the leader on the podium without nutrition. .

It's been a long time, far longer than the time span of Huo Gu and Ming's first communication. Huo Gu is fine, but Ming has begun to doubt life.

"Finished?" Hogu asked.

"Uh...it's over."

Say everything you want to say at once, and face the supreme will that you have always longed for forever, but for a while, you don't know how to raise the topic and start a communication.

"Then I will trouble you to explain how you established contact with this place."

"I just said this..."

The atmosphere between them instantly became very awkward. Indeed, Yongxuan's eloquence just now made Huogu subconsciously ignore everything, and took an attitude of ignoring everything.

Ignoring other people's words, and being exposed by the person concerned, the embarrassment on Huogu's side is far greater than that on Yongxuan's side. However, Huogu's rich experience is not a vegetarian, so he naturally suppressed this embarrassment .

"You spoke too fast just now, I didn't hear you clearly, can I trouble you to say it again?"

"...Okay, follow your will."
