333 Mad Evolver

In the primeval Mesozoic Era, when mankind had not yet stepped onto the stage of history, the earth was once ruled by dinosaurs, the "king of reptiles".

This reign lasted until 65 million years ago, when the dinosaurs withdrew from the world in a mass extinction.

And now, after Pandora chose the evolutionary direction of "gigantic", the large lizards on her planet have also begun to evolve at a terrifying speed:

The originally short limbs have become muscular and agile "long legs", and although the two forelimbs still look very thin, some of the lizards that could only lie on the ground have stood up with the support of their hind legs.

After moving from four-legged to bipedal, these animals suddenly became much faster, turning into ferocious carnivorous dragons. And those lizards that have not evolved to this stage and still use four legs, this is to evolve sharp horns, or grow heavy bone armor on their bodies.

Herbivorous dragons tend to be defensive, carnivorous dragons are aggressive, and some of the "giant birds" with wings have become pterosaurs flying in the air. The planet of Pandora has entered an era ruled by dinosaurs at an astonishing speed!

While reptiles are rapidly evolving, the plants on that planet are also evolving, but they are obviously much slower than animals, and they are still in the primitive fern period.

In contrast, the plants on Lin Chi's side evolved more than a notch faster than the plants on Pandora's side.

- In fact, plants that can survive through photosynthesis and absorption of inorganic matter are, in some ways, much more vital than animals.

Trees have a long lifespan, even ordinary willow trees on the side of the road can live for about 150 years, some trees can live for thousands of years, and there are even "immortal bodies" that can survive for tens of thousands of years!

It is conceivable that such an extremely long-lived plant will undoubtedly become very terrifying if it acquires a "brain" that can think.

The reason why plants on Earth have not been able to evolve complex consciousness is that they do not have enough energy to support them to grow organs that can think complexly.

After all, it takes a lot of energy to keep thinking.

But on this planet, it's clearly not the same......

Lin Chi could see that the nutrients in the soil of this planet were obviously much richer than those on Earth, and the high-intensity light brought by nearby stars also made the photosynthesis intensity of plants even higher.

In addition, the groundwater resources here are also unknown to the earth. Plants receive enough light without worrying about wilting due to water loss.

As for those who prefer shade and dampness, the damp canyon can also be chosen as a "hiding place". In such a unique environment, these plants that are thriving have really evolved their thinking organs at the same time as they are changing at a high speed!

Click.

With a soft sound, the inside of the branch of a cedar tree underwent abnormal changes.

The trunk of the tree, which had a hard shell and a shape that resembled a walnut, grew into something that began to expand rapidly, and what appeared to be some kind of semi-liquid milky white gel was stored inside, and the inside was covered with nervous-like filaments.

These tentacle-like nerves spread outward from the small holes in the shell of the "walnut" and spread out in all directions along the trunk of the tree, soon connecting the roots, bark, and branches of the tree, and even spreading to each leaf.

"Is this the 'brain' of plants?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes.

- In order to protect their "thinking", some trees hide their thinking organs in the center of their trunks, while low shrubs hide them under the soil and entangle them with their roots. The hemisphere with its hard shell, just like the human brain, creates complex consciousness through internal "chemical reactions"!

Noticing that the plants on Lin Chi's side had evolved something similar to a "brain", the purple-haired girl shook her two short legs and said in a low voice, "This is too unscientific." ”

"What science are you looking for in the game?" Lin Chi said solemnly and continued to observe the greenery on his planet.

Despite evolving thinking organs, plants are still immobile or make sounds. As a result, they soon began to communicate with other plants in the vicinity by releasing pheromones from their leaves, and these plants all over the planet soon created a dozen different "languages" to communicate silently in the air.

As for the content of these plants' conversations, Lin Chi, as the creator, naturally heard them clearly, if they were to be translated into human language, the content of these plants was actually as trivial as the chat of the aunt of the neighborhood committee downstairs in the community:

"The redwoods over there, your roots are wrapped around mine, can you grow to the side?"

"Why are you able to absorb all the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium? What about Lao Tzu's nourishment? My sons are malnourished, okay? ”

"There is more moisture here, everyone is trying to move it this way! Don't wait over there to die......"

"That little aspen is pretty ...... It's a pity that it's a little far away, why are there a group of crooked melons and cracked dates around me? ”

"Who do you say is a crooked melon and cracked jujube, believe it or not, I will rip off your roots?"

……

INTERVIEWER Can these plants "see" the surrounding images?

Realizing this, Lin Chi observed the trees by himself, but he couldn't find a part that resembled an eye. Presumably, they must have established a three-dimensional dynamic vision similar to radar by releasing some kind of substance over a large area.

As the vegetation area expands, the roots of many trees are connected.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the two creators, several large forests actually achieved "communism" and began to absorb water and nutrients together......

As the trees joined together and entered a state of "one wins, one loses", their thinking organs are also connected, like CPUs with multiple cores, and they begin to run at almost crazy speeds.

"Is that okay?"

Witnessing this scene, Lin Chi was also an eye-opener. The two were still observing the evolution of plants, and the host's featureless voice sounded again at the right time:

"Two Creators, a new round begins!"

In the face of the unbelievable evolutionary process, the two players were also particularly perfunctory in blackjack, and the round ended in a 17-point draw.

However, Lin Chi and Pandora didn't care about the game at all, they just stared intently at the distant planets and observed the evolution on the two planets.

In this round, the purple-haired girl chose the direction of evolution "wisdom", and Lin Chi chose "body".

As Pandora made her choice, the dinosaurs on her planet improved their intelligence almost immediately, and the size of their originally small and poor brains began to grow.

In order to support the large amount of energy required for brain thinking, the dinosaurs used part of the energy used for running and hunting in the brain, and the originally strong body became slightly weaker than before.

With hundreds of billions of neurons in their brains, dinosaurs developed their thinking patterns and thinking abilities by leaps and bounds, and soon developed a language for communication like trees, and even designed some handshakes, nods and shakes to express their opinions.

Then, on Pandora's planet, there were also a lot of roars. But this time, the howls of the dinosaurs were not as meaningless as before, but became a new language of communication between them.

The two creators who were playing cards could naturally translate the language of dinosaurs into a form that humans could understand. But compared with the chatter of the plants, the content of the dinosaurs' speech is much more rude:

"Son, come with me, get that herbivorous dragon, your mother is still waiting at home to eat!"

"The Tyrannosaurus rex is here, run, ah, ah!"

"There's a stegosaurus over there, the odds seem to be lower, so let's get out."

"Fuck the velociraptors, I'm going to fight you to the death!"

As the dinosaurs developed language, they began experimenting with their own words on smooth stone slabs with their claws. These reptiles also realized that in order to thrive better, it was better to find a way to record certain information.

However, in the case of the same evolved consciousness, the dinosaurs on Pandora's side were obviously not as reliable as the trees on Lin Chi's side.

- Although the lifespan of dinosaurs is not short, it is still far from the life span of trees that can live for thousands of years. Most of the trees on Lin Chi's side are still the same stubble, and the dinosaurs on Pandora's side have been changed several times, and they have directly reached the generation of great-grandchildren.

Due to the need for newborns to relearn their knowledge, the dinosaurs' civilization is just getting started, and their civilization is developing at a very slow pace, except for the language and a few words that have been passed down, it is basically the same as in the previous round.

In this situation, the longevity advantage of trees is reflected.

The great forests that hold the roots together have become supercomputers that are running at high speed, thinking at terrifying speeds.

Due to the large number of trees in the forest that have almost dissolved into a single unit, their survivability has been raised by another level. Even in the face of a super storm, it will only lose a few dozen trees at most, and it will not have much impact on the whole.

Not long after the first connected forest appeared, the forests in each area began to connect together. Hundreds of "supercomputers" have been built around the planet that can perform photosynthesis.

As the consciousness of the trees began to merge, the different forests began to communicate with each other, and even more strangely, they even selected a specific "spokesperson" to transmit information to other nearby forests.

Under the observation of the two creators, a coniferous forest, composed mainly of spruce, began to transmit messages to the broad-leaved forest thousands of meters away:

"Hello, are you there?"

"Hello, are you there?"

"Hello ......"

The "spokesman" at the edge of the taiga keeps emitting pheromones, using the wind to transmit the information. It was not long before it received a response from the broad-leaved forest:

"No, get out."

"Are these guys joking...... Pandora's golden eyes widened in surprise.

The slender branches of the spruce swayed in the wind, and he didn't pay attention to the taunt of the broad-leaved forest next to him, but just sent a message again:

"Our territories are about to collide together, why don't we leave a boundary in the middle, and we don't sow seeds in this way, how about it?"

"It seems that they have not only learned to joke, but also to draw borders." Lin Chi said with a smile.

The speed of evolution of these trees even exceeded his expectations. To Pandora's surprise, who was still suspicious that plants would not win.

There is no doubt that if plants continue to evolve, they will definitely build their own civilization faster than the dinosaurs!

Thinking of this, Lin Chi also raised his eyebrows proudly, and continued to observe the communication between the two forests attentively:

"It's okay to draw a boundary line, but can you go back a bit?" The broad-leaved forest responded via pheromones: "The land on our side is not full of nutrients, so it's not fair." ”

"Friend, you chose to put down roots over there, what does it matter to us?" The taiga was obviously opposed, and even began to mock directly: "Your child is stunted, do you want to blame my child for eating too well?" ”

Even if it was ridiculed, the evergreen broad-leaved forest still refused to give up this condition: "Okay, okay, our side is almost finished with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and we will die if we continue like this......"

"What do you have to do with me when you die?" The taiga still didn't care: "Seriously, do you accept the conditions of the border line or not?" ”

For immovable trees, there is no equivalent such as money, and these trees do not have the same spiritual needs as humans do, in addition to survival.

For these plants, it is not beneficial to help other groups, which is why the taiga is so decisive in rejecting the other party's proposal.

However, the broad-leaved forest, which will die sooner or later, refuses to give up fighting for the resources in the soil.

"Since you won't give in, then we can only grab it......," the broad-leaved forest signaled danger, and the green leaves rustled in the breeze.

"Ha, do you have the ability to come here? Do you think you can beat us? Taiga scoffed.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chi also suddenly realized something, and muttered to himself: "Is this about to break out into war?" ”

Pandora didn't speak, just stared quietly at the two forests on Lin Chi's planet.

Under the observation of the "eyes of heaven" of the two creators, the first war broke out between plants in history...... It's finally begun.
