The Three-Body Problem: The Most Competent Wallfacer of All Time

Chapter 552 The Steps of Life Evolution

Jiang Que sorted out the difference between Tertiary and Quaternary life forms in his mind. Taking the earth as an example, the Tertiary life forms did not have much wisdom when they first arrived on Earth.

Even on the icy earth deep in space today, there are still many microorganisms that existed billions of years ago, and they should be Tertiary life forms.

The reason why they have no intelligence is because the earth's environment is gradually suitable for the reproduction of creatures, and they can survive without intelligence.

Bacteria No. [-] is considered a special case. They should have acquired a certain amount of wisdom in order to survive after the environment on Mars began to deteriorate.

At that time, the wisdom level was only to cooperate with each other, just like when Jiang Yu saw the No. [-] bacteria, he used illusions to confuse other creatures.

In the following four and a half centuries, Bacteria No. [-] underwent a second evolution in the human laboratory, possessing high-level intelligence.

At the same time, the arrival of tertiary life forms, or the environmental changes on the earth caused many chemical reactions, and gradually there were creatures born and bred on the earth.

These creatures gradually evolved, and only then did the Quaternary life forms, humans.

The difference between the life forms of the tertiary period and the life forms of the quaternary period is that the life forms of the tertiary period have always existed with a simple structure, and they basically survived by instinctive reactions.

But because it has experienced the harsh environment of the universe, it is extremely adaptable.

Jiang Que believes that the viruses on the earth and some bacteria and fungi that actively attack complex organisms should be Tertiary life forms.

The fight between humans and them has never stopped. They will attack humans, and humans have antibodies against them.

They mutate, and human antibodies are also strengthened.

The Quaternary life forms must have borrowed the structure of the Tertiary life forms at the beginning.

Of course, this kind of reference is not a subjective reference, but the ability and changes possessed by the survival of the fittest for hundreds of millions of years. Only in this way can they survive the hunting of life forms in the third era.

Another characteristic of the life forms of the third era is that they can produce intelligence under a very simple structure.

At present, Jiang Que still doesn't understand the mechanism of this, but the probability of generating wisdom in this way should be very small, far less than that of Quaternary life forms, as long as they move forward, they can basically generate enough wisdom.

However, the survivability of the tertiary lifeforms is also unmatched by the quaternary lifeforms.

Jiang Que asked again: "Do you have any information about the life forms of the second era?"

Zheng Kai shook his head: "We only know that the life force of the second era is tenacious, and can even survive in the space environment!"

At this time, Jiang Que's brain was running rapidly, and she immediately thought that the life forms of the second, third, and fourth epochs seemed to be related to the environment of the universe.

When the life forms of the second era were developing, the entire universe did not have a very good environment. At that time, most of the planetary systems today were still nebulae.

Even so, by chance and coincidence, life was born.

When the life forms of the Tertiary Epoch emerged, the situation was much better, and most of the planetary systems were formed.

Although the environment of the terrestrial planets among them is quite harsh, with frequent crustal movements and frequent asteroid impacts, at least they have a stable environment compared to the second-epoch life forms.

However, such an environment still does not meet the conditions for Tertiary life forms to evolve too complex structures. In order to continue, Tertiary life bodies will limit their own complexity genetically.

So even now, the living body in the third season still has a very simple structure.

When the Quaternary life forms germinated, the situation improved further, and there was already a very stable living environment, which also allowed the Quaternary life forms to become more complicated step by step.

No matter what "qualification" is at the time of hair growth, enough wisdom can be evolved.

At this moment, Jiang Que seemed to see the struggle of life in the early days of the universe, and she suddenly felt the greatness of life.

Zheng Kai said: "Okay, our conversation should be over, I will not prevent you from leaving."

But Jiang Que shook his head: "You have no intention of negotiating conditions with humans at all, right? You have wanted to destroy the entire human race from the very beginning."

Zheng Kai, or Bacteria No. [-], was silent.

Jiang Que said again: "Your uprising did catch humans by surprise, but your ability to deceive is still too weak compared to humans.

"If you really want to negotiate conditions with humans, after you control some hostages such as Zheng Kai, you will negotiate with humans.

"But you didn't. A few hours ago, there was no one left in the tenth district. They all went to the nearby space city and Qingnuxing, right?

"You are trying to find as many parasites as possible, and reproduce your species as quickly as possible.

"Including you, your spaceship should have been blocked by the highest order of the Qing Actress Consulate, instead of sitting on the sidelines as you said."

Bacteria No. [-] suddenly sneered and said, "This is what you call "see you!"

Jiang Que noticed that the expression on Zheng Kai's face became more and more suitable for his tone, and the No. [-] bacteria's control over Zheng Kai continued.

At this time, Zheng Kai probably only had to convey his thoughts with his eyes.

Jiang Que shook his head: "You know, I can't stop you, now I only have the ability to protect myself.

"As long as I get the answers I want, I'll find a place to stay.

"The conflict between you and the ruling government is your business. I have no ability to participate in it. I will wait for the result of your conflict.

"However, I believe that you have little chance of winning."

These words made No. [-] Bacteria's expression slightly lessened.

Jiang Que said again: "The last question, what is your social structure like? Or who obeys whom?"

Bacteria No. [-] replied: "A group of compatriots who escaped from the laboratory with me obeyed my orders.

"After we infect humans, we will quickly use human energy to complete division and reproduction, and infect others through droplets or contact as soon as possible.

"The No. [-] bacteria on your body is already the second generation, and they will obey us."

Jiang Que nodded: "I probably understand that you have a clear leadership relationship among the same generation, and the second generation will obey the orders of the first generation."

Bacteria No. [-] nodded: "Okay, you can leave now."

In ten minutes, the analysis of the variation of No. [-] bacteria after entering the human body will be completed, and the instrument behind Jiang Que must be turned off as soon as possible.

Jiang Que smiled and said: "Don't worry, so you are their commander-in-chief, right? You are also the first to be infected?"

Bacteria No. [-] nodded impatiently.

"That's easy." Jiang Que suddenly shouted: "Little Q! It's now!"

Little Q, whose energy source had been turned off, suddenly lit up on the face display, and then waved his hand, cutting the guard robot protecting No. [-] bacteria from his left shoulder to his right crotch with a laser cutter.

Then it rushed over and controlled Zheng Kai.

Jiang Que smiled and said, "It's called capturing the thief first and capturing the king first."
