"This is the only possibility."
Lu Yongchang shrugged and spread his hands helplessly: "I don't believe that the giant tree's intelligence level is that low."
Upon hearing this, Mao Zhengzhi touched the tip of his nose and gave a wry smile.
"Yes, based on the communication log just now, it is preliminarily estimated that its intelligence has only reached the level of a current five-year-old New Human."
"The level of intelligence displayed by those giant trees on the Lost Star is not like this."
While the two were talking, Meng Lu had already quickly edited a new message and clicked the output button.
The moment the bioelectric signal was released, the "bang bang" sounds in the biological laboratory stopped abruptly.
It seemed that the five-year-old sapling was stunned by this information.
Unlike last time, this time, within just a few seconds, messages appeared on the translation program's interface.
How do you know about Him?
“Him?” Lü Yongchang frowned immediately. “Zero, is there a problem with your translation?”
The word "He" often refers to the third-person pronoun of a deity.
The appearance of such text in such a place undoubtedly aroused Lü Yongchang's high vigilance.
This relates to the relationship between the sapling and the Lost Star Tree, and it also foreshadows the hierarchical relationship among the Lost Star Trees.
A synthesized electronic voice quickly rang out.
"The translation is fine."
Ling explained in detail: "The moment the electrode released the signal, the probe detected an abnormal bioelectric signal generated within the root system."
"The emotions expressed by this bioelectric signal are quite complex."
"After comprehensive evaluation, the preliminary analysis results are reverence, obedience, and faith."
Perhaps because humans had not responded to the message for a long time, the sapling could not help but ask repeatedly.
Do you know Him?
Where is He?
Say something!
Meng Lu turned her head and looked at Lü Yongchang with a pleading gaze.
This unexpected turn of events has completely exceeded the contingency plans made by the research team!
Without any hesitation, Lü Yongchang stepped forward with a calm expression, his fingers moving rapidly to input a line of text into the holographic projection.
Can you contact Him now?
Perhaps because they had gotten used to this way of communicating, the saplings responded faster and faster.
Almost immediately, the saplings responded to Lü Yongchang.
【I have no idea……】
[I don't know why, but the connection is getting weaker and weaker; I haven't heard His voice for a long time.]
Lu Yongchang raised an eyebrow, his wariness lessening slightly.
It appears that the connection between the sapling and the giant tree is gradually being lost, perhaps due to a break in the physical connection.
This is undoubtedly excellent information for humanity.
After all, a sapling today is like a newborn child; how it grows depends on the information it receives from the outside world.
Therefore, if humans can provide them with some level of guidance...
Thinking of this, a strong sense of excitement appeared in Lü Yongchang's eyes.
He steadied himself and continued typing.
When was the last time you heard His voice?
You're right, I do know Him, and I know His exact location.
[...]
Looking at the lines of information projected on the holographic screen, Lü Yongchang couldn't help but turn his head and look around guiltily.
Sure enough, the academicians around him cast strange glances at him.
"Cough cough!"
Lu Yongchang coughed twice guiltily and explained in a low voice, "I, I'm not trying to fool a child!"
"I didn't say anything wrong, we do know the location of the giant tree!"
Seeing Lü Yongchang speaking eloquently in front of the holographic projection, the academicians couldn't help but smile faintly.
"Besides..."
"Can you call something that researchers do a hoax?"
While explaining himself, Lü Yongchang pressed the bio-current input button.
This response came faster than ever before!
When the time information appeared in the holographic projection, everyone present let out a deliberately suppressed gasp.
"It's this time..." Mo Zeyang muttered to himself.
"What's going on?" Lü Yongchang frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Does this time have any special significance?"
"..." Mo Zeyang took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and explained in a low voice, "Professor, at the beginning of the experiment, the bioelectric signals were very chaotic, but the quantum signals were very orderly."
"This has caused great disruption to our research process."
"Then, it was after this point in time that the bioelectrical signals gradually became more ordered!"
Lü Yongchang's expression turned serious: "In other words..."
"At this time, the lost giant tree instilled some basic information into it, such as a language system!"
"Just like... preschool education."
He pondered for a moment, then typed another line of text into the translation program.
Can you try contacting Him?
I can try, but... what should I say?
Lü Yongchang fell silent.
He carefully weighed the pros and cons.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and typed into the translation program:
If you succeed, tell Him about your current situation.
Okay, I'll give it a try.
...
The translation program fell silent again.
However, the intensity of bioelectric and quantum signals in the holographic projection in front of Mo Zeyang increased even further.
Clearly, the sapling is trying to make contact with the lost giant tree.
Time passed second by second.
Suddenly, the curve representing the intensity of the quantum signal began to fluctuate abruptly.
Its fluctuation range far exceeds all previous test data!
"professor!"
Upon seeing this, Mo Zeyang abruptly turned to look at Lü Yongchang: "This should be a signal from the lost giant tree!"
"They've made contact successfully!"
The next second, the translation program, having received the relevant information, automatically began operating.
Messages appeared at an extremely fast pace.
Unlike the naive tone just now, this message sounded incredibly mature and wise.
【Dear human civilization, hello.】
You may call me Nus.
Please forgive my previous offense and rudeness.
Due to the missing components of the Italian network, the communication signal is very unstable, and information transmission may be interrupted at any time.
A complete Italian website can provide us with a good environment for information exchange.
[Nus, we beseech you to descend once more.]
