Chapter 302
When the mermaid wakes up, she finds herself in a chair with Fleicisco Michael Cassan, who is staring thoughtfully into the distant sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You're awake. Can you tell me where we are right now? Fleicisco leaned down, his eyes undisguised with concern.
"We're right above the Holy Land right now, and the Precursors called it Holy Land because I live here, I don't have the genes to resist radiation, and I live underground most of the time." The eldest princess of the mermaid stood up and said softly, "They are full of gratitude for my actions back then, and they treat me like a god. They are the ones who know gratitude......"
Fleisisco nodded in understanding, the mermaid princess had been independent for forty years, and she had indeed paid too much to the red starfish, and at the same time, he also heard the meaning of the mermaid princess's words: "I believe they are all kind, but they are aliens, this is an undeniable fact." ”
The mermaid princess was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about something. "Did you see this?" She suddenly pointed to a half-meter-high model of a crystal stone arch bridge on the table, and said with a look on her face: "There is no concept of a river on the Red Starfish, and of course there is no such thing as a bridge. The eldest princess of the mermaid flicked her hand lightly as she spoke, and the arch bridge was immediately scattered into more than a dozen large and small accessories. The bridge was formed without adhesives and was formed entirely by fitting fittings. Can you restore it if you try? The parts are numbered on them, and you can do them in order. ”
Although Fleicisco didn't understand why the mermaid princess suddenly got into the model, he fiddled with the pile of parts as he said. Flesisco knew that the hometown of the mermaid princess was the famous water town of southern Italy - Venice has water and roads, roads and water, and many such stone arch bridges, surrounded by the Adriatic Sea, emitting infinite light. The sun is very sunny in June or October, with blue skies and white clouds; There are also times when it rains lightly. The locals live a very bright life, the boatman's accordion is particularly melodious, the romance is emanating from the bones, not pretending, that place can really be a paradise...... The mermaid princess of her teenage days walked across the bridge. Fleisisco imagined how delicate the mermaid princess looked when she stood on the bridge and looked at the scenery, but now she could only fiddle with a model of a stone bridge at the bottom of the Red Starfish in Orion, six hundred and thirteen light-years away. Fleisisco froze and focused his attention on what was actually a pile of trapezoidal crystals. Fleisisco tried and failed several times, and the model always collapsed when it reached a certain point. Fleisko stared at the disobedient pile of parts with some dismay, it should have been an easy thing to do, the shape of the parts must have fitted into a bridge, as he had just seen with his own eyes, and it did not require any adhesive like a real stone arch bridge......
"You're not going to make it." The eldest princess of the mermaid said meaningfully, "There are a lot of parts, but you will find that your work always collapses at some point. She pulled out a box from a drawer, "You can't do it just because there's something missing, and the components inside this box can be used to build scaffolding." If you look at the arch bridge construction manual, you will find that you need to build ancillary facilities such as scaffolding before building a bridge, but these things will eventually be removed without leaving a trace. ”
"Why are you talking to me about this?" Fleisisco asked thoughtfully, feeling that he was approaching some hidden truth.
The beautiful Danfeng eyes of the eldest princess of the mermaid became very bright: "In fact, the process of building this bridge is very similar to the evolution of human beings. This is the normal state of evolution, and for more than three billion years, all the components of our bodies have actually undergone this process. The parts that once appeared but eventually disappeared were not useless, and without them there would be no human beings. But our current transformation of the forerunners completely violates this natural law, skipping all intermediate links. With the powerful technology that has surpassed the creator, human beings have designed 'Superman', that is, the forerunner, directly according to the environmental needs of the immigrant planet. ”
"You say that 'Superman' or Precursor is an unnatural product, right?" Flessisko asked.
"The forerunners, or 'supermen,' are entirely the product of pure computing." A trace of sadness flashed on the face of the mermaid eldest princess, and she said faintly, "They are just products that have been deduced from the environment of the immigrant planet. In the eyes of the Earth Council, they are a pack of white rats who are sent to the frontiers according to the needs of humanity. Out of the need to pioneer, they are innate with all kinds of special abilities and wisdom, but these abilities and wisdom can bring them destruction decades later. ”
Fleicisco was silent for a few moments before he spoke, "The extreme you mentioned has not occurred. "It can only be said that it did not appear before the Red Starfish." The mermaid princess looked directly into Fleisisco's eyes: "Technology is not omnipotent, it is impossible to foresee all situations. What do you think will happen to Red Starfish 'Superman' or Precursor? ”
Fleisko felt his throat run dry and muttered, "Star Charter...... Mentioned in the Charter. ”
"The Star Charter." The mermaid eldest princess's tone was as cold as ice: "Do you want me to recite it to you?" I've long since turned the charter over the years. Yes, the charter is full of axioms and justice, and every word of it sounds like it represents the supreme law of human civilization, which is impossible to refute. It says only two words to the 'supermen' or forerunners of the so-called failed immigration: erasure. ”
"There is always a possibility that the experiment will fail, and since I know that it will fail...... Fleisisco swallowed with difficulty, "and this is also a last resort." "The question is, did the Red Starfish Forerunners fail?" The eldest mermaid princess forced her eyes at Fleicisco and said, "You've seen them, along with their children. For so many years, they have lived freely on this planet, without any discomfort, and they have established their own home, in harmony with all things; Without a major disaster, they would have lived like this for a hundred or tens of millions of years. Have you ever seen a flower house built by children? The beautiful Danfeng eyes of the eldest princess of the mermaid radiated a moving luster: "I think it is like a beautiful work of art, the most moving thing on this wild planet." Do you dare to deny that you have ever been moved by it? "Yes." Flessisko whispered, "Those flower houses are indeed very beautiful. Also, those kids are very cute. They reminded me of my own daughter. Really, I really think so. ”
"But by the definition of the Star Charter, they are all failed samples that should be erased without leaving a trace. It's because they're reproductively isolated from us. The eldest princess of the mermaid changed her words and said, "But can you blame them for this?" It's humans who are manipulating all this. ”
"Psychologically, they really can't be called human anymore." "I admit it's a human mistake, and it seems that even the most elaborate designs sometimes go wrong, because humans don't know all the secrets of genes," Flesisco affirmed. What is happening here has proven that the environment of the Red Starfish is beyond a certain threshold, and that the 'Superhumans' or Precursors who are fit for survival will be destined to alienate into non-humans. According to the Interstellar Charter, this planet will no longer be used for immigration after the erasure of the Precursors, and it will become another Dead Sea star......" (To be continued. )
