Chapter 487: A Study of the Tree of Evolution

Not far beyond the solar system, a huge tree of evolution stands in the void, and as long as the eyes are not blind, even from several galaxies, it is impossible not to see it.

Now, when many Dawei people leave the solar system in a spaceship, they will bypass this space far away.

However, there are also some adventurous people who will go into the confines of the Tree of Evolution and go on adventures on those islands and see the giant beasts for themselves, which they will find cool.

As a cosmic treasure that he personally dragged back, the Dragon King attached great importance to the Tree of Evolution, and also sent Sima Zheng to preside over the research work on the Tree of Evolution.

The progress so far has been very significant.

Because the Tree of Evolution is not easy to study, the first thing to study is the giant beasts in the space, such as the genes of these giant beasts.

The Dawei people captured some giant beasts for dissection, and after research, it was found that the genetic map of these giant beasts was very perfect, and it could even be said that it was incredibly perfect.

Each organism has a unique gene, and these genes are combined to form a unique map, and as long as there is a sample, just looking at the gene map can know what that organism is.

Now in Dawei's genetics, there is a recognized truth, that is, the weaker the organism, the smaller the number of genes, the more simplified the map, and the stronger the organism, the more genes, the more complex the map.

In the past, the number of genes of the Dawei people was only about one hundred, and the powerful ones like Lu Bu were only one hundred and two, and as for the dragon king himself, there were no samples, and the dragon king would not let others study his genes.

The current Dawei people, after the dragonization, the number of genes has skyrocketed, the average number has exceeded 10,000, and some have even reached about 15,000, and the composition of the map is becoming more and more complex.

The dragons of the Dragon Continent have also collected genes, and the genes of these dragons are stronger than those of the Dawei people, generally more than fifteen thousand, and a few dragons even have more than twenty thousand genes.

And the giant beasts in the space where the Tree of Evolution is located, the number of genes is terrifyingly high, how terrifying is it, the number of ordinary genes is as high as more than 100,000, and even, some powerful ones exceed 200,000.

However, the researchers found that the genetic map of the giant beasts is extremely simple, and their genetic map only has one pattern, like a tree...

Why is it a tree? Researchers were puzzled and had all sorts of speculations.

"Is it because the space they are in is influenced by the tree of evolution, so the genes are also affected, and the genetic map becomes a tree?"

"Or? The more the genetic map ends, the more complex it will be, and it will become a single pattern? Like becoming such a tree? Will it be like a fish, like a rabbit in the future? Or something like a pig or something? ”

"These giant beasts are obviously of different species, there are birds, turtles, fish, giants, but the genetic map is the same, just looking at the genetic map, it is no problem to say that they are a kind of creature, it is really strange."

Such a strange thing naturally aroused the interest of researchers, but in the next research, there was no progress, the genetic map of the giant beast is almost the same, there is no difference, it is similar to the copy.

Of course, researchers actually have a second method, which is to wait for the Tree of Evolution to blossom and bear fruit, and then study the fruit of the Tree of Evolution, but unfortunately, the Tree of Evolution does not know when it will bear fruit, maybe the next moment, or it may be years later.

Then, a small incident that happened unintentionally brought a whole new way of thinking to the researchers.

This little thing is that a captured green wolf has shrunk in size.

This green wolf was captured by the capture team, the green wolf is not very large, the size is only three meters long, according to the size of the giant beast in the evolution tree space, this length of the green wolf can be described as small.

Researchers have been studying those giant beasts with a body length of hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters, with the size of this green wolf, the researchers naturally have no interest, from the easy to catch back, the green wolf was locked in a cage, almost no one noticed it, even when collecting genetic samples, no one came to collect the genes of the green wolf.

Then on this day, a researcher happened to pass by the cage, when he saw the green wolf, he felt that something was wrong, and after asking several people and checking the monitoring, he finally determined that the green wolf had shrunk from the original three meters long to the size of an ordinary wolf, that is, about one meter in length.

Will the size of the creature shrink? And still alive after shrinking? The researchers were amazed.

The researchers immediately collected the genes of the green wolf, and found that the genes of this green wolf were similar to those of other wolves, and most importantly, the genetic map of this green wolf was not a tree.

The performance of this green wolf aroused the interest of the researchers, and they captured some creatures from the Evolution Tree space, and they were all of the kind that were not particularly large, such as under ten meters.

These creatures were genetically collected, and it was found that their genetic map also looked very much like a tree, if this was normal, then the next few days, it was more abnormal, that is, several of these creatures were constantly shrinking in size, and the genetic map was changing every day, and they slowly became normal from the original abnormal.

"Genetic degeneration? Impossible, if it is genetic degradation, how can there be a reason for it to degenerate so quickly? ”

"That's right, generally speaking, whether it is genetic evolution or genetic degradation, this time should be calculated in units of more than 10,000 years, or millions of years or tens of millions of years, and it only takes a few days for genes to degenerate like this? It's scary, isn't it? ”

"But if it's not genetic degradation? What would that be? ”

At this time, a researcher suddenly said faintly: "How do I feel that these beasts are very similar to the dragons imprisoned in Mercury?" The magic in the bodies of these dragons is constantly overflowing, which can also be regarded as a kind of degradation, right? ”

"Uh, you mean rule devouring? It can't be, these beasts are all beasts of the self-universe, and they didn't get them back from other universes. ”

"Not necessarily...", someone snorted at the Tree of Evolution, "This giant tree has formed a space, and maybe, this space, like other universes, has new rules. ”

"Uh... It seems to make some sense. ”

"What then? This kind of thing that involves the rules of the universe can't be studied at all now, right? ”

"It's really impossible to study, notify the Dragon King, let the Dragon King take a look."

Soon, the dragon king was notified.

"The Evolutionary Tree is about rules?" Hearing this, the Dragon King was a little stunned.
