"Commander Lu, can't those plants and animals evolve a means to counter the shepherds? The period on Mars is equivalent to the Cambrian period on Earth, and the evolution of life must have been very active. ”

Several female researchers who were not the main research species program turned their heads and asked curiously to Lu Yi.

Before, when the Muba people had just walked out of the volcanic zone to bask in the sun in the North Pole, they were still whispering that the Muba people were so cute, and now when they saw the scene of this slaughtering planet, they all stopped saying that the Muba people were cute.

I didn't care that there was a researcher next to these female researchers, Professor Su, who studied aliens and studied the origin of life on planets and the evolution of species, didn't ask, but ran to ask about his own behavior, Lu Yi, who has led the Mars exploration program for more than half a year and already has a certain understanding of species evolution, shook his head and smiled:

"In addition to various viruses and drug-resistant bacteria, have you ever seen plants or animals that can threaten human survival?"

"Maybe there are animals or plants that can evolve countermeasures in a small area, but under the intelligent thinking of the entire Muba population, the so-called countermeasures are simply vulnerable."

"It's the same as how we humans have not relied on the evolution of the body to dominate the earth for the past 100,000 years, but have relied on intelligence to win.

When the Muba people opened up their thinking instinct and evolved wisdom, they, like us humans, went on a path of intelligent evolution that was completely different from other animals and plants. ”

The hundreds of thousands of years of human evolutionary experience have proved that compared with natural evolutionary selection, the path of intelligent evolution is like a hanging, and no natural evolutionary choice can compete with the progress of intelligence.

The so-called claws, sharp teeth, venom, and even parasitism evolved by animals, and the toxicity evolved by plants, the tall roots and tenacious vitality, etc., are vulnerable to wisdom in the face of wisdom.

"What about viruses and microbes?" The female researcher continued to ask.

"The Black Death was so terrifying that it couldn't make Western Europeans extinct back then, and there would never be such a terrible virus in natural evolution."

Lu Yi patiently explained: "There is another factor that determines that Muba people are not afraid of natural viruses is their genes.

Although I don't know what the genetic map of the Muba people is, I think their genes will be relatively simple, because they are not ordinary life, they are primitive life before the differentiation of plants and animals.

Genes are complex because they have evolved through generations.

Like the genes of the earth's mammals, billions of base pairs of genes are mainly due to a series of species changes such as eucoelenterates, fish, amphibians, and small vertebrates.

These species changes and evolutions are not without traces, and each species change will lead to changes in the original gene structure, making the genes more and more complex and cumbersome.

Statistically, the number of viruses on Earth that can infect insects and reptiles with relatively simple genes is several orders of magnitude lower than that of mammals.

This proves that the simpler the genetically simpler the species, the less likely it is to be damaged by viral infection and the more resistant it is to viral infection and destruction.

The Muba people have hardly undergone too many species changes, they are fortunate to have embarked on intelligent evolution very early, which has led to their genes being simpler than the genes of the extinct vegetation and insects, if there is a virulent virus, then the first to be infected and killed will be those vegetation and insects and animals, but the Muba people will not be affected too much.

Even the simpler the genes, the easier it is to evolve, and even if they are attacked by the virus, the Muba people can quickly evolve the means to counter the virus. ”

"I have to say that the Muba people are a favored race, and when they really developed into a civilized era, they have much potential than us human beings.

We humans also need to consider various livelihood problems when they go to the starry sky, and colonization also needs to consider issues such as gravity, atmosphere, radiation environment, and the establishment of an ecosystem, but they don't need to be so troublesome at all, water, carbon, and light are enough, and they don't need to build an ecosystem step by step when they colonize the planet, and they can transform the planetary environment by themselves as producers. ”

Lu Yi looked at the Muba people on the screen, and said with some sighs: "I really don't know what kind of disaster will make such an intelligent race die out after entering the era of civilization." ”

The extinction of the species that swept Mars came to an end, and it took millions of years for this species war to end with the extinction of more than 95 percent of other species, ending with the shepherds.

Even the species war, which lasted for millions of years, stimulated the Muba people to evolve further, so that the Muba people began to have regional tribes.

Tribes, this is the first step towards civilization of the intelligent race.

It is precisely with the concept of tribal collectivity that the intelligent life of the individual can be united and gather the spark of wisdom of all people to ignite the fire of civilization.

[The multi-million year extinction war has been resolved, and the wisdom of the Muba people has been further developed, although the pheromones they emit are still permeating the entire Martian air, but this time the pheromones are no longer treated equally, but have begun to divide the area, dividing you and me. 】

[The evolutionary path of the Muba people has begun to enter a turning point, and when we study this, the hearts of our descendants of the Muba people are also full of feelings. 】

[Perhaps maintaining the original situation of all the Muba people not distinguishing between you and me, the Muba people will gradually evolve into a collective consciousness life that only exists in scientific fantasy, and evolve a great collective consciousness civilization.

However, it may also be due to the lack of competition and disputes, and the lack of external stimuli, the wisdom of the Muba people is gradually worn out and lost in the passage of time, and finally the wisdom evolution fails to become a pure plant. 】

[Of course, as the descendants of the Muba people, we can only sigh that from the actual point of view, we should be grateful that the Muba people did not move towards the intelligent evolution route of collective consciousness, because if this is the case, then we will not be possible. 】

[The Muba people, who have divided into tribes, may have formed an instinct in the Muba people after two successive wars for millions of years, and the extinction war caused by the carbon war has ended, and the war has not left them. 】

[It's just that the current war has changed from external to internal, and has become a war between Muba tribes one by one. 】

[In order to seize water resources, in order to seize areas with better sunlight, the war has not stopped for a moment. 】

[After research, it was determined that although the Muba people at that time had split into tribes and were at war, they did not relax against other species, and the extermination wars against other species would always be staged from time to time.

This xenophobic act is also the foundation for the future of the Muba people, and it also erases the hope of the rise of other species, and eliminates the last hidden danger of the Muba people. 】
