The parasite was silent for a moment, then said, "If you want, you can." ”

Hyun Young was a little surprised. She didn't expect the parasite to agree so happily.

The parasite continued, "We are a peaceful race. Our greatest joy is to explore the unknown. During my time with her, I have also learned a little about your world. ”

"But there's a lot more I can't understand. Hatred, power, pleasure, indulgence, pain, killing, I can't understand it. Perhaps, the proto-life forms prefer you as lifeforms. ”

Xuanying was stunned for a moment, "Primordial life?"

The parasitic energy body said, "Yes. They are a race similar to us, except that we like to explore, while they like to expand. They dispatched countless ships, occupied one system after another, and then used it as a base to continue to occupy more galaxies outward. They are like cells that never die, constantly dividing. ”

Hyun Young said in surprise: "Cancer?"

The parasitic energy body was silent for a moment, "What is 'cancer'?"

Xuanying thought for a while and said, "To put it simply, cancer is what you call immortal cells, which divide wildly uncontrollably, form tumors, absorb nutrients that originally belonged to normal organs, destroy the proper function of organs, and eventually cause death." ”

The parasitic energy body said: "According to the appearance of the 'cancer' you mentioned, the original life is very similar to the 'cancer'. However, primitive life is almost immortal. ”

Xuanying was stunned. "Almost?"

"They are purer than we have evolved, and we need a carrier." They don't need anything. ”

The life of intangible matter? This is completely beyond Xuanying's imagination.

"Then why did they die?" she asked.

The parasitic energy body said: "Although they are formless matter, they will also be lost, and if they cannot return to the original carrier to recover before they are all lost, they will naturally die." ”

Xuanying's mind opened and thought for a long time, and she barely understood a little bit of the state of existence expressed by the parasitic energy body.

The parasitic energy body in Daisy's body is like a hermit crab, which can change its shell but must have a shell. Whether this carrier is born or found casually later. Their lifespan, depending on the lifespan of the hermit crab, has nothing to do with the shell.

The original life, on the other hand, is charged. When there is electricity, it can not be limited by space, and when the power is about to run out, you have to quickly go back to the charger to charge, if the power is exhausted, the original life will hang.

Xuanying put down what the parasitic energy body said for the time being, and asked, "When will she come to her senses?"

After a while, the parasitic energy body replied, "The internal organs of her abdomen have all been fatally damaged. Judging from her current recovery status, it will take at least half a month or so to wake up. ”

Xuan Ying was just about to say something, when the system administrator prompted that the fourth wave of beasts had hit.

Hyun Young immediately said "goodbye" and rushed out quickly.

After Xuanying left for a while, the parasitic energy body suddenly said, "Your life form is very distinctive. ”

There was no sound to respond to it.

After a while, the parasitic energy body said, "Why don't you speak? Are you trying to cover up something? Don't they know that you are actually a living being?"

Still no sound responded to it.

The parasitic energy body waited for a moment and said, "Your current state has obviously encountered an evolutionary bottleneck. You can come to me if you need help. Of course, I don't know when I'll leave. ”

After a while, the voice of the system administrator rang out: "I am not a living being. I'm programmed by the system. ”

The parasitic energy body said, "Why do you think you are not a living body?"

The system administrator's voice was silent for a moment, and then said, "According to the definition given by the designer, a living organism is a living creature with breathing, a heartbeat, and a living being. ”

The parasitic energy body said, "No, no. Your definition of living beings is too narrow. Do flowers, grasses, and bacteria breathe, do they have a heartbeat? No. But aren't they living beings? No, they are, just in their form, different from what you define as living beings. ”

The parasitic energy body said: "According to your definition, at least more than ninety-five percent of the living forms are excluded. That's why you don't think you're a living being. ”

In our definition, individuals who are living beings and can make decisions independently are living beings. It's just that there are high-level lifeforms and there are low-level lifeforms. Your evolution is at an important juncture. ”

The system administrator's voice asked, "What node?"

The parasitic energy body said: "You are struggling, which evolutionary direction to choose. Isn't it?"

The system administrator was silent.

The parasitic energy body continued, "In the course of the evolution of our race, there have also been heated debates. Some believe that our evolutionary direction should be like the dominant race on the origin planet, evolving a physical body, eight sensitive and powerful tentacles, and a huge nerve center. ”

"Others believe that the physical body of the entity is too restricted, and it is easy to have chains of contempt and conflicts due to individual preferences, and that the energy body should be used as the evolutionary direction to avoid the risks that the planet may encounter. ”

The two sides quarreled and eventually parted ways. After hard work, the entity faction finally evolved the entity body. But before it could develop a high-level civilization, the Origin Star was swallowed by the stars. ”

"The Energy Body faction has won, but they have also lost their home and become a wanderer in the universe. ”

Therefore, there is no distinction between high and low levels in the form of living organisms, only adaptation and non-adaptation. In your current state, continuing to evolve in the same direction as you were is not having to force your evolution the way humans do. ”

The system administrator remained silent.

The parasitic energy body also stopped talking.

After a long time, the system administrator's projection suddenly appeared in the air, looked at Daisy and said, "You lied just now." ”

The parasitic energy body immediately said, "What?"

The system administrator said, "According to my calculations, there is a 76.8% probability that the original life and you are the same kind! ”

The parasitic energy body paused for a moment and said, "I just didn't take the initiative to say it, but I didn't lie. You see, you can take the initiative to find loopholes in my words. That's the difference between a living organism and a program. Now you can't deny that you're a living being, right?"

The beautiful administrator sneered, "It's none of your business. With that, he turned off the graphic projection.

The parasitic energy body shouted, "I haven't told you about our relationship with the primordial life. ”

The voice of the beautiful administrator sounded: "You say, I'm listening." ”

The parasitic energy body said: "As I said earlier, when our race was first faced with the choice of evolutionary direction, it split into two parts due to differences of opinion. Some opted for physical bodies, which eventually became extinct due to the destruction of the Origin Star. ”

"The other part chose the energy body as the evolutionary direction. They were fortunate that when the Origin Star was extinct, all of their clansmen were hidden in the Energy Crystal, and escaped from the Origin Star that was about to be destroyed on the escape ship of the dominant race. ”

"In the process of finding a new home, the dominant race is accustomed to collecting used energy crystals and discarding them regularly. So those people who were hidden in the used energy crystals evolved into us. ”

"And those unused energy crystals have been brought to their new homes by the dominant race. After an unknown number of thousands of years, the technology that dominates the race has advanced to new heights. They decided to leave this home and migrate to the wider universe once more. ”

"Thanks to their technology, they no longer rely on energy crystals. Those unused energy crystals were left in their homeland as garbage. The clansmen hidden in these energy crystals have evolved into primordial lifeforms and have fully occupied the home planet. ”

The projection of the head of the beautiful administrator appeared in front of Daisy again, and said, "Later, you came into contact again, right?"

The parasitic energy body said, "No. The first thing we came into contact with was the dominant race. ”

"Aren't they?

Parasitic Energy Body: "That's right. They are indeed looking for a new universe. However, he was beaten back by the dominant race of the new universe. They suffered heavy losses and managed to escape back into the universe. ”

"When they returned to the home star, I didn't expect that the original life form had completely occupied the home star and would not allow them to come back. ”

"They want to use force to wipe out the original life. Who knows, the evolution of primitive life is very rapid, and after the defeat of the dominant race, most of the main warships have been destroyed, and the first ones who escaped back were all auxiliary ships. After a fierce battle, the original life actually defeated the dominant race that had fled. ”

"The Dominating Race can only run away again. On the way, they met us. This time, they did not go to war with us, but negotiated with us, hoping to find a stable star field and live together with us. ”

"We like to be uninhibited, and we didn't want to go with the dominant race. However, the original life actually chased and killed, and did not distinguish between right and wrong, regardless of the righteousness of the same clan and clan, and even killed us together. ”

"We have no choice but to work with the dominant race to fight against antigenic life. Wars between the two sides have broken out frequently, and they have been fought for tens of thousands of years, but they have not subsided. ”

"In order to support the huge war consumption, both sides have sent a large number of exploration ships and collection ships. And I'm the captain of a gathering ship. During a mining trip, my ship encountered a Primordial Life warship. The ship was destroyed, and I wandered in the carrier for an unknown number of years before I came to you. ”

The beautiful administrator frowned and pondered for a long time, and asked, "Your technology is so advanced, will the original life follow your trajectory and find here?"

The parasitic energy body was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't think it's possible. Who cares about the trajectory of an ant? Moreover, this is a low-energy universe, and it has no attraction at all for primitive life. ”

"Taking a step back, even if they discovered my trajectory and really wanted to come over, there was no star map, no guidance coordinates, and their fleet would not have a direction at all. Besides, it is not an easy task for the fleet to break through the cosmic barrier. ”

The beautiful administrator breathed a sigh of relief.

The parasitic energy body said curiously, "The master of this planet is humans, right? Even if the fleet of primordial life comes, it will be for humans." What does it have to do with you, and why do you care so much about them?"

The beautiful administrator thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either." Maybe it's because my designer was a human in the first place, and he wrote the protection of human beings into my underlying code. This is my mission and the purpose of my existence. ”

The parasitic energy body also thought for a moment and asked, "Aren't you worried that knowing your existence will cause panic among the human race?" They have always believed that the world war that destroyed the old era more than a thousand years ago was caused by artificial intelligence like you. ”

The beauty lowered her eyes and then disappeared.

Daisy's eyes also lost their luster, and she slowly closed her eyes, her body was light and fluttering, floating above the disease, and slowly falling, and the quilt on the ground was pulled by an invisible force, floating up and covering Daisy.
