Under the cover of the projection, the research robot seemed to truly become a protruding "rock" on the floating land – the silicon-based jellyfish did not notice the existence of the research robot at all.
They stood on the floating land, silently gazing at the group of silicon-based jellyfish in the distance.
The various sensors rapidly transmitted the detected data to the Earth.
The silicon-based jellyfish has an average total height of 3.65 meters.
The average length of the tentacles is 3 meters.
The average height of the "head" is 0.65 meters.
They are much larger than humans, but compared to the individuals of the Tenth Empire's civilization, they are still as small as pets.
The message "[Ten]" came again.
"Ten Descendants, that's the name I gave them."
Lü Yongchang's eyes flickered slightly.
The literal meaning of the name is easy to understand: descendants of the Tenth Empire, or simply Ten Descendants.
However, the deeper meaning behind the name is quite profound.
Descendants.
This weak AI actually mistook these silicon-based jellyfish for descendants of the Tenth Empire!
At this moment, even if these silicon-based jellyfish are at the same level of civilization as humans in the Stone Age, in the eyes of this weak artificial intelligence called [Ten], their importance is probably much higher than that of human civilization.
Let alone human civilization.
Lu Yongchang believed that even a Level 6 civilization would not be as high a priority as those jellyfish in the eyes of the fortress's artificial intelligence!
"Being born into the right family is definitely a skill!"
He couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Fang Xu, standing to the side, nodded earnestly: "Yes, with the guidance of this weak artificial intelligence, these silicon-based jellyfish can avoid many detours."
Lü Yongchang hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Taking fewer detours on the path of civilization's development is really nothing special.
Human civilization has not taken too many detours.
Most importantly, those living under a "protective umbrella" are destined to rarely or never encounter threats from advanced civilizations.
Who would dare to provoke a civilization that is suspected to be a descendant of an eighth-level civilization?!
Are you tired of living?
Lu Yongchang took a deep breath. At this moment, he had vaguely realized the purpose of the abnormal behavior before [10].
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be related to the group of silicon-based jellyfish in front of us.
So he asked [ten] again.
"Didn't the Empire take them with it when it left?"
When it came to the [Ten Descendants], [Ten]'s response was exceptionally swift.
At that time, they had not yet evolved intelligence.
Ten thousand years ago, during a routine inspection of my home planet, I discovered that they possessed rudimentary intelligence.
They used fragments of broken floating landmasses to create the simplest tools.
At the same time, they developed a unique and enduring curiosity about the various devices left behind by the Empire.
A look of surprise immediately appeared on Lü Yongchang's face.
a thousand years.
In just ten thousand years, they progressed from rudimentary intelligence to the Stone Age...
That speed is much faster than that of humans!
Is this the natural advantage of silicon-based organisms?!
These jellyfish still communicate using inefficient microcurrents, so what kind of development speed will the Tenth Empire, which was born with mastery of electromagnetic wave communication, possess...?
It's unimaginable.
He swallowed hard, suppressing his shock.
The information of "[10]" did not end there; it continued to appear in the holographic projection at a constant and unhurried pace.
According to the Imperial Intelligent Life Protection Act, the level of protection for rudimentary intelligent beings is limited to maintaining their living environment.
However, as time went on, the Ten Descendants evolved at an increasingly rapid pace and acquired moderate intelligence.
This is a very rare phenomenon.
Lü Yongchang nodded thoughtfully.
It's easy to understand.
Most organisms cease evolving after acquiring basic intelligence; only a minority of life forms ultimately evolve into highly intelligent beings.
[According to the bill, their level of protection has been raised by two levels.]
I not only need to protect their habitat, but also ensure that their populations reproduce and expand normally.
Until a thousand years ago, they officially possessed advanced intelligence.
They possessed a complete language and writing system, which, according to the Imperial Law, was a sign of a nascent civilization maturing.
At this point, the protection of the Ten Descendants reached its highest level.
[At the same time, it triggered a hidden command left behind by the Empire.]
When the next civilization emerges on this planet, I will guide its growth and, when the time is right, incorporate it into the alliance.
...
Bright light came from outside the dark gray house.
The visual sensor located on the top of my head transmits electrical signals to the core of my mind. After a moment of thought, an astonishing conclusion appears in the core of "me".
Daylight broke.
Is it dawn?!
How is this possible?!
The night occurred 0.4536 standard days ago.
Normally, it should be late at night now.
But why is there a warm glow coming from outside?
I subconsciously stretched out my previously curled tentacles.
Supported by it, I rose from the warm, porous earth.
Subconsciously, I stretched out my tentacles and walked out of the dark gray hut.
Yes, the vision sensor is not malfunctioning.
The sky had indeed brightened.
I looked up, and the orange-yellow mist, illuminated by the sunlight, firmly covered the sky, giving the entire sky a strange orange hue.
