Chapter 160 The Evolution of Human Civilization
Except for some fanatics who were still excited, the noisy crowd gradually quieted down.
"Recently, I was invited by the Rize civilization to explore their ancestral spaceship, which contained a considerable crisis..."
Just one sentence attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone stared at the screen intently, listening to Lu Yuan's story.
"It is certain that the top civilizations will capture anomalies for research."
"In addition to the four major natural disasters, there are many weaker anomalies that can be captured. If you find these things in the future, you can pay a little attention to them. They may be good research targets."
Lu Yuan briefly described the situation of the Dalai Empire laboratory.
All human experts had many thoughts in their mind and felt the exaggerated gap between civilizations.
It has been almost 5,000 days since the beginning of the Ninth Era.
During such a long period of time, the 17 human cities have indeed observed some relatively weak idealistic life forms that are suspected to be "visions".
For example, a white-haired monster will emit white hair, contaminate other creatures, and turn small animals into zombies.
Suspected... no wisdom.
This thing actually appeared a long time ago, circling around the safe zone continuously, and seemed to be able to sense spiritual energy.
It should not belong to the four major natural disasters of [demons], [devils], [ghosts] and [monsters], but it obviously has some evil aspects.
For example, a stone man who eats stones was also found around a certain city.
This stone man can float and seems to have the ability to control gravity.
However, its attack tendency is relatively weak, and it just eats the ore on its own.
Of course, there is also the black cloud with human heads that is suspected to be a demon... That thing is the strongest enemy of mankind! Lu Yuan was a little surprised. Are there so many hidden dangers in the human world? In contrast, there are no strange phenomena around the Rize civilization. It may be because of the existence of the demon that drove them all away - this demon is an old monster left over from the previous eras.
The [monsters] on the human side are most likely newborn monsters.
"Mr. Lu, I have a question, how did the anomaly appear?"
"Unfortunately, I don't know either. Based on the limited information I have, I can guess that new phenomena will appear in every era. They are innate and are the embodiment of idealistic rules."
“Are they capable of reproduction?”
"Most of them probably don't. A small number of them might have the ability to reproduce, but their offspring should only be stronger extraordinary life forms."
Lu Yuan thought of the immortal giant turtle. Does this guy have the ability to reproduce?
It probably won't work.
Otherwise, the Dalai Empire would have created a large group of immortal giant turtles long ago.
This turtle is actually not that good. When Lu Yuan thought about it, he felt secretly happy for some reason.
“Do they have a lifespan?”
"There should be. I have good reason to suspect that the life cycle of most anomalies is one era. Otherwise, why would there be a division into eras? Of course, those powerful anomalies are an exception."
The information provided by Lu Yuan filled in the gaps to a large extent.
Human scientists started to associate and discuss enthusiastically.
“Perhaps the idealistic rules of each era will undergo a lot of changes.”
"Environmental changes have resulted in a limited lifespan..."
What a pity, although the vision is good, we have to defeat the opponent before we can study it.
If you want to defeat it, you have to cancel the safe zone... But there is another [Monster] outside...
"My friends, please be quiet for a moment."
"After some troubles in the laboratory of the Dalai Empire, I found some knowledge related to glyphs."
Lu Yuan's face was serious: "The carvings may be the key clue to the development of idealistic science."
"The Dalai Empire used the power of glyphs to capture many anomalies."
"Luckily, I just happened to get some information, just a little bit... ahem, does anyone have anything to tell me?"
The noisy crowd calmed down.
They finally understood why Lu Yuan called.
This was the first time they had heard of the term glyph...
Many people have developed a mysterious sixth sense in their hearts. It is very important, extremely important!
Professor Edward from Newyue City's eyebrows were flying at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The owner of the "super thinking" ability, who has a strong sixth sense, murmured to himself: "Will he give us the knowledge? God, why is he not from our city?"
"No matter how high the price, we will go to Yunhai City to trade!"
…
The cathedral of the Fourth Civilization branch.
The white-haired Pope is discussing changes to doctrine with several cardinals.
"The Son of God is not only Jesus, but also Hong Xiuquan in the East."
"Yes, this fact was confirmed in the 19th century. It is also certified by the Vatican."
"They also left behind works such as The Song of the Original Dao to Save the World and The Instructions for the Original Dao to Awaken the World. So Eastern civilization is also a child of God, and it is normal for some outstanding people to have been born there."
"Yes, that's the explanation."
As the saying goes, "After entering the Pass, there will be great scholars to debate the scriptures for me."
Human society is indeed complex.
Debate is also a part of civilization.
Sometimes, unity of thought is the premise for liberating productivity. Once faith collapses, chaos is bound to follow.
…
In the 11th branch, Dongjin City, a group of soldiers were expressing envy and jealousy, and were sarcastic.
"Don't expect this glyph knowledge!"
"It's meaningless even if we give it to you!" a military commander said hysterically, "We have to find a way to get the extraordinary fire! Without it, any other knowledge is worthless!!!"
Hope is truly the most precious thing in the end times.
Dongjin City, which lost its extraordinary fire, did almost nothing in these fifty days.
A rumor is spreading wildly in the city: their extraordinary fire is dead, and they have no hope!
Even if the ruler issued an order to cover up public opinion, how could the people's gossip be stopped? Most other cities stabilized, began to develop industry, research idealistic technology, and compete for civilization milestones.
And they did almost nothing but maintain the lowest level of food and clothing.
Without the extraordinary fire, their lifespans are hundreds or even thousands of years shorter than others. That's lifespan!
His strength is also more than one level weaker than others.
As a result, Tokyo City had no motivation to develop, and everything started to rot... Even if the glyphs were thoroughly studied, what would it matter? Without the extraordinary fire, everything was in vain.
Most of the senior executives are thinking about Kairun.
Once other powerful cities revoke their safe zones, they will directly become Run people! Run to Daddy.
This... is already the biggest social trend in Dongjin City right now, and no one can change it.
Of course, there were also a few professors who were obsessed with academics. They looked at the screen and then looked at the people in the room.
I lamented the current oppressive political environment in my heart.
Let’s do it, let’s do it everyone.
…
In the ninth branch, Zero Wave City, Digdit, who possesses the ability to "control", looked at Lu Yuan on the screen and whispered, "I have always felt that our nation is the best."
"We are not only the most outstanding race among humans, but also the best in the entire Pangu Continent!"
“But we have to admit that there is still an excellent civilization on this small planet that can produce outstanding talents.”
His voice gradually became higher and higher: "We should not underestimate ourselves, nor should we be arrogant."
"Learn their strengths and study glyph technology! Then let us conquer visions and natural disasters together!"
“Comrades, let us work together!”
"Yes, sir!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
“Bang!”
Everyone in the room saluted enthusiastically. Even the scientists saluted, sincerely admiring this leader who had emerged out of nowhere.
…
Lu Yuan naturally didn't know the situation of each human branch.
Compared to the Rize civilization, humans are simply a mess.
In just 50 days, the disparity between civilizations has become fully apparent.
Of course, even if Lu Yuan knew, it might not matter. After all, the distance is too far, and human civilization is just a symbol, just a concept.
He cleared his throat and said, "In short, the research ability of an individual is limited, and the talent pool of a city is also limited."
"So I will give this knowledge of glyphs to everyone."
Sharing knowledge for free is a kind of generosity from fellow countrymen and a kind of fraternity that hopes that fellow people can live a better life.
In this age full of malice towards one another, this kind of fraternity is actually very precious.
Lu Yuan added: "I will also give this knowledge to the Lize civilization."
"I hope that we can work together to learn from each other and reduce the practice of reinventing the wheel. After all, there is more than one race in this world, and it would be foolish to fight among ourselves."
Lu Yuan naturally had his own considerations.
The glyph system is extensive and profound, and it is not something he can handle alone.
In particular, the information he obtained came from the mirror, that cunning demon.
The information is incomplete.
It is like a primitive man who got half of a primary school textbook and wanted to deduce the knowledge of middle school and university on his own. That can only be described as wishful thinking.
So he simply made the knowledge public and let humans study it themselves.
By combining everyone's wisdom, the speed of progress will surely be much faster.
At that time, humans can feed back knowledge to him.
Lu Yuan has the "glyph insight talent", and can learn a lot of knowledge in one go, but it still takes a huge amount of time to create knowledge.
Of course, he has this idea because he used to be a programmer. Open source projects often develop faster than closed source projects.
Many hands make light work.
As for the idea he shared with the people of Rize...
On the one hand, when he made a deal with the [Demon], it was actually the Rize civilization that took the risk, so it was necessary to give them some compensation.
The Rize civilization possessed the wreckage of a spaceship, so it would be a lie to say that they knew nothing about the glyphs.
People just don't want to share all their knowledge. Even if Lu Yuan has a lot of face, it's impossible.
But if Lu Yuan also took out chips related to the carvings, it would be a different story.
Strengthening cooperation, competition and communication with humans is never a bad thing.
"Mr. Lu, what are the uses of carvings?" After some discussion, someone asked.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "The Li Ze civilization has some photos of spaceships from ancient civilizations. You can ask them."
"From small things like temperature control and solidification of materials to large things like spaceship engines and sealing of super powers, all can be achieved with glyph technology."
“This is just the features I know about, there are many more that I don’t know about.”
“It can be said that this is a whole new technology tree.”
When the immortal giant turtle heard the word "glyph", it came directly to the screen, poked its head out and greeted everyone.
"Human, I have something to ask your turtle master!"
"I am Lu Yuan's good brother! Lu Yuan was pushed by the turtle and almost started to use the Piranha Plant to swallow his body. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and stopped this action.
"Move aside, move aside, there is something important going on."
"Ahem, if everyone can come up with some results in the next few years, we will have some confidence in dealing with the black cloud outside."
Lu Yuan placed the gold foil in front of the screen and transmitted the information through video recording.
In fact, most complex glyphs are "alive" and flow continuously like living things.
This is true of the books of Daedalus and the carvings on the turtle.
Once the glyph is transmitted via video call, it becomes a very rigid thing.
Fortunately, the gold foil only contains the most basic knowledge and is not very active, so it can be transmitted relatively easily.
After the transmission was completed, Lu Yuan felt that he had accomplished something.
Next, he shared the news of the "fusion, evolution, and splitting" of super powers with everyone.
This information was heard from the devil, and its authenticity is unknown, but it has opened up new ideas.
"The origin of the extraordinary fire... is actually like this?"
Those experts and professors all had their eyes wide open.
"Are there other abilities that can be taught to each other?"
"I think so."
Of course, this matter is not as simple as imagined. The "Super Fire" is not a very powerful ability. Compared with the alien space and space teleportation, its functionality is a little worse.
Precisely because it is extremely easy to spread and has universal applicability, it has become the object of active dissemination by "God".
As for other abilities, even if they can be spread, they may still require personal qualifications and consumed resources.
Moreover, the skills of form and qi must be the main focus, and the skills of spirit are difficult to teach each other.
But being able to have this idea of "integration, evolution, and splitting" has opened up new ideas.
"My friends, there is a limit to the number of innate abilities a person can learn, probably around 5-9."
“Everyone may need to think carefully and plan in detail in the future.”
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu, you're worrying too much. We haven't even developed a single ability that can be taught!"
"Where is the choice?!"
