Evolution from mushrooms

"If you don't want to die, come here.

A voice came out faintly.

The Nether Dragon's body had almost started to collapse, and he instinctively grabbed the last straw.

Awareness upload!

Direct physical destruction.

This is Chen Mo's decision after careful consideration.

Because his current essence is only a level 2 life, although he can control the Nether Dragon by infiltrating cells, it is far from perfect.

And the control process, because of the huge size of the other party, it takes a long time to complete the control.

During this period, Chen Mo has no way to prevent the Nether Dragon from connecting remotely with other civilizations.

Therefore, there is no way but humane destruction.

The easiest way.

If it is another civilization, it will definitely not do this.

Because a living void dragon that is willing to cooperate, even a void dragon that is willing to hand over the ransom, is much more valuable than killing it.

But in Chen Mo, it is completely different.

He has already obtained the complete genetic map of the Nether Dragon, even if he recreates a Nether Dragon, there is no problem at all!

Even, capturing the consciousness of the other party, it is possible to pretend to be the other party.

At that time, there will not only be ghost fleets in the universe, but also ghost dragons.

Dirty work can be handed over to the other party.

Without any time to think, the body is already being eroded rapidly.

The void dragon immediately changed its consciousness structure and began to enter a brand new storage space arranged by Chen Mo.

This is something like a photonic computer.

After all, it is not an idealistic level 3 civilization, Chen Mo has no way to completely separate consciousness from material existence.

In a strong consciousness, there is also a need for material support.

Otherwise, it will collapse in an instant.

He can't get the more advanced psionic computer of the Kota tribe, but after knowing the principle, it is still possible to build a low-profile version of the optical path neural network.

The consciousness of the void dragon will be semi-digitized and uploaded to this optical path neural network.

Change the format again and become a semi-artificial existence.

This change made the Nether Dragon feel extremely painful.

Even partially unalterable structures are cleared.

Lost part of memory.

The side effects are quite horrible.

But in order to survive, pain has to be endured.

Even the priests who were expensive level 3 civilized priests didn't have the choice. As a void dragon with a level 2 civilization, they were actually quite lucky to be able to get this option.

After all, this is already similar to immortality to some extent.

Although there is currently no evidence that consciousness never wears out.

But obviously, according to observation, the lifespan of consciousness is much longer than that of flesh and blood.

"It's a pity that I'm not a pure materialist. Otherwise, I can change the structure of all consciousness into numbers, and then I will really live forever~||."

That is completely artificial intelligence.

The road of materialism is like this, gradually eliminating all unmeasurable things, everything is in order, visible and tangible, and the results can be measured.

Consciousness, artificial intelligence, flesh and blood, steel mechanization.

Their path is quite difficult and takes the longest time.

But play it safe.

One step at a time.

"Speaking of which, are there any immortal individuals in Level 3 civilization?"

Chen Mo couldn't help but think of the materialist civilization at the star gate. If they were fully digitized, their resistance to idealism should be quite high.

It can be said that it is almost immune to all interference attacks on consciousness!

"Awesome, it seems that any evolutionary path will be very scary in the later stage."

"And not all Level 3 civilizations have strong interference with the outside world."

"To be precise, materialist civilization should be quite environmentally friendly, with little harm to the environment, and has a strong tendency not to expand..."

This point makes Chen Mo very interesting.

Interestingly, among the level 2 civilizations, the one with the most expansionist tendencies, except for the group creatures of Gestalt thought, is the materialist civilization.

Because they need a lot of material to support their own development.

A large number of warships, as well as a large number of scientific research buildings, all require huge energy and material support.

A positron-electron collider can consume the power consumption of an entire city, from which we can see how terrifying the resources they consume.

In the later stage, an experimental device even needs to specially build a Dyson sphere (a huge energy-harvesting device that encloses the entire star, similar to wrapping the entire star with a creeper), to extract the energy of an entire star to maintain its operation.

But when they entered level 3 civilization, they turned from strong expansionism to contraction.

Yes, extreme shrinkage.

Chen Mo speculates carefully.

At this time, he has quite a few samples in this area, which can already support this judgment.

【Information】: A whimsical idea, but it leads to a terrifying guess, the big barrier is not over yet!

Yes, based on the research on the semi-digitized consciousness of the 'Kota clan', as well as your own operation to digitize a level 2 powerful cosmic life, you have a certain understanding of digitization into cognition and some of its harmfulness .

The virtual space you promoted in the divine will is considered part of the operation of digital consciousness, which also brought you a lot of reference materials. You carefully analyzed all the individuals who have integrated into the divine will in the world, and the time they are immersed in the virtual space is slowly increasing. , but it is worth noting that at two nodes, the "immersion value" showed explosive growth.

After carefully investigating and sorting out all the data, you found that this is directly related to your two evolutions of the virtual space, increasing the degree of realism.

If the time-consuming, immersive experience, spiritual sustenance, and other data are aggregated and weighted to obtain an "immersion value", it can be used to measure the degree of dependence of intelligent individuals on virtual space.

You find that this value is growing at a terrifying rate, and it is directly proportional to the development of civilization, especially the development of virtual space technology.

The fit is extremely high.

According to your guess, the "immersion value" will be very scary in a level 3 materialistic civilization.

And with the digitization of all civilized individuals, the probability will reach an extreme.

When all needs are in the virtual world, one thought can be satisfied

This will cause the entire civilization to stop expanding and shrink into the virtual world.

finally,

The result of your speculation is that the entire civilization will fall into a state of stagnation and slow death. They will gradually decouple from the material world and only retain part of the energy interface.

Through practice and thinking, your understanding of level 3 materialistic civilization has increased, you have a new understanding of digital consciousness, and you have new ideas about the construction of divine will and virtual space. Your adaptability +1, risk +1.

hiss!

"It's no different from being dead."

Chen Mo couldn't help feeling terrified.

Does the Stargate civilization say...

Of course, these are Chen Mo's speculations.

But the existence of this big barrier is certain.

And it works for all materialist civilizations (good money Zhao).

Especially for extreme materialist civilization, factory!

"Perhaps the idealistic civilization also has this terrifying trap, waiting on the road."

Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

On the road of evolution, one really cannot relax at any time.

I didn't expect that even a level 3 civilization might fall into the trap without knowing it.

This is actually a slow change in the trend of thought of the entire civilization. If it is a group of creatures, fortunately, with the power of one individual, it is enough to turn the world around.

But for collective civilization, it is quite difficult to do.

The change of social thoughts does not happen overnight, everyone is in it, and it is difficult to detect it.

"who are you!"

The Nether Dragon roared, interrupting Chen Mo's thoughts.

He felt extremely uncomfortable and fearful at this time.

So far, he still doesn't know how he failed.

Everything came too fast!

Chen Mo smiled and observed with interest.

The genetic map can be obtained in the flesh and blood, and the treasure island may also be contained in the consciousness. .
