Listen gently to the waves crashing on the shore and face the sea in the spring flowers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Nova capsule-shaped mechs rested silently on the rocks by the sea, and the craggy rocks did not hurt the hull of the high-strength alloy in the slightest, but instead became a good support for the ship.

Below, waves of white spray rushing towards the shore and the blue sea reflecting the sunlight of the sky.

Here, on the edge of the Pan-Ancient Land, the Thunder Moon hung diagonally above the horizon, as if it was about to fall at any moment. In the afternoon, the stars shine brightly on the world, obscuring the starlight.

The sea of Lanxing is not as beautiful as imagined.

The ocean was formed only a few thousand years ago, and the erosion of the waves during this time was not enough to create a golden sand beach, but instead the angular rocks dominated the long coastline, shimmering with a cold cold light.

The water is crystal clear, free of any microorganisms, only a small amount of suspended dust drifting with the waves, rippling with a dreamy sheen in the sun. The breath of dead silence permeated the world, except for the howling of the wind and waves, there was not a trace of life.

A dead sea.

The blue-haired girl sat on the rocks on the shore, her legs dangling in the air, she turned her head to look at the figure wrapped in a spacesuit next to her, pursed the corners of her mouth, and said cautiously: "Xiao Cheng Xiao Cheng ......"

"Well, what's wrong?" Xiao Cheng looked at the girl beside him through the mask.

"Well, don't you think it......" Xinglan bit her finger, "Isn't it strange to look at the sea in a spacesuit?" ”

“…… I'm sorry for ruining the atmosphere. Xiao Cheng couldn't laugh a little, and looked at the completely sealed spacesuit on his body, "In just a few years, the environment here has not improved much at all, and I am not a robot body...... And ......"

"Huh?" Xinglan blinked.

"Looking at the sea in a spacesuit or something...... I suddenly feel so stupid when you ask me like this! The young man hugged his head in pain, as if he had an urge to spray blood all over the spacesuit, "Where is the original touching and sad atmosphere?" Give me back my touches! ”

"I'm sorry ......"

“…… Forget it, what's there to apologize for. A little calmer, Xiao Cheng raised his leg and kicked the gravel under his feet, watching the small stone roll down to the bottom and be swept away by the tide at once, "The existence of the three satellites makes the tide here extremely active, but this sea ...... It's not really a sea yet......"

"The real sea?" Xinglan tilted her head in confusion.

"Yes." Xiao Cheng looked at the waves surging in the distance, "Fish swim in the water, shells are washed up on the soft sand by the sea, turtles chase jellyfish, and children play on the beach...... The sea of life, this is the real sea. But I can't see that vibrant future......"

"Xiao Cheng ......"

"Xinglan, do you believe it?" Xiao Cheng struggled to stand up and spread his arms, "That beautiful future?" ”

"Well, I believe Xiao Cheng." Xinglan nodded vigorously, picked up a microbial envelope, and threw it out into the distance.

Bang Bang Bang ...... After a series of bouncing collisions, the less dense box came to rest on the water. The white exterior labeled casing is made of water-soluble material that silently and rapidly dissolves in seawater immersion, releasing engineered bacteria that have been adapted to the pristine marine environment inside the box into the outside seawater.

Xinglan narrowed her eyes slightly, and the camera in her eyes quickly zoomed in on the image: "With these microorganisms, this blue sea has life......

"Yes...... "Waves of the sea and bright stars in the sky are reflected on the mask of Xiao Cheng's helmet, "Sooner or later, the land here will ......also bloom in spring."

Wow! A huge wave surged in, throwing several sealed boxes that had not yet completely melted into the air, carrying small droplets of water that shimmered in the splendor of the rainbow in the light.

"Are the spring flowers blooming...... Xinglan said softly.

"yes." Xiao Cheng slowly stroked the bare rock in front of him through the gloves of the spacesuit, "The tilted axis of rotation of Lanxing can create changes in the four seasons, and there will naturally be spring." In the future, there will also be new flowering plants that will evolve and then spread throughout this vast land with the resilience of life, making the world colorful, and perhaps in a few hundred million years, this rock will no longer be so desolate. ”

Xinglan nodded seriously: "Well, it will be." ”

"Hehe......" Xing Lan's serious appearance amused Xiao Cheng, he looked up at the dazzling star in the sky, and suddenly said, "Xing Lan, you are really beautiful......

"Huh...... Huh? Although the robot's body did not have flexible eyes or complex expressions, it was obvious from the voice that Xinglan was startled.

"What a dazzling light!" Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes and stared at the radiant sun, "Xinglan, remember this: I don't know how many advanced civilizations there are in this universe, but there will definitely be super civilizations like that mysterious invader that can destroy stars, so unless you are completely sure, don't expose your position to the universe at will in the future!" Protect yourself and let this brilliant light shine forever......"

"Hmm."

"But don't worry too much." Suddenly thinking of something, Xiao Cheng laughed, "If that kind of interstellar fortress dares to come here, maybe with your ability, you can directly invade their control center tampering procedures...... In fact, the most troublesome thing for you is the kinetic weapon, if the opponent can use a very high-speed kinetic weapon to bombard the star directly and remotely, that is the most dangerous. ”

"It's okay, in fact, my body should be a signal, even if the star is really destroyed, it's a big deal to fall into dormancy and wait for other energy sources...... No, we won't let people blow up their hometown! Xinglan puffed out her face, "Still, the star has a new name......

Looking at Xiao Cheng, Xing Lan smiled slyly: "Let's just call it the sun." ”

"Huh?" This time, Xiao Cheng was taken aback.

"It's the most annoying thing to have a name, it's just lazy! It's not like you're comforting some guy who is about to die...... "Awkwardly turning her face, Xinglan watched the waves swell unnaturally.

"You guy, are you tsundere?" Xiao Cheng smiled dumbly, and in a certain star, "You are arrogant!" Your whole family is tsundere! "So, let's throw all these boxes into the sea!" ”

“…… Anyway, is it really okay to throw it all in this sea? ”

"This is the best place to release the animals, and in other places, I directly used the airborne capsule to play orbital bombardment."

Xinglan: "......"

……

In the midst of laughter, white boxes were tossed high from the rocks on the shore, like white birds flying in the sky, and then ...... plunged headlong into the rolling waves......

This was a scene of white pollution in the eyes of later generations, but it was the beginning of life on the planet. From this moment on, the common ancestor of future creatures officially stepped into this ocean, this world, this world that is still barren, this world that is not destined to continue to be barren.

The tide rises and falls, and the torrent of time will change the world.

Altering the composition of the entire ocean and atmosphere is not a small project, and even if the most effective biomodification methods are used, Xiao Cheng estimates that it will take at least a thousand years or more to create the environment needed for ancient life...... Yes, ancient life.

History moves forward step by step, and for the sake of safety, the planetary environment cannot be adjusted to an environment suitable for human existence at once, which will only cause evolutionary deviations with unknown consequences. After careful consideration, both Xiao Cheng and Xing Lan believe that they should simulate the step-by-step history of biological evolution before the emergence of human beings, so as to achieve a more complete evolution...... Of course, in actual operation, Xiao Cheng didn't believe that a guy with a thinking out of his mind would really complete the simulation step by step, and even if he wanted to do this, it would be impossible to achieve complete simulation.

Lanxing will inevitably have its own characteristics, which are completely different from the characteristics of the earth, after all...... It's really not called Blue Star.

The microbes they put into it not only skip the two critical stages of the earliest synthesis of organic matter by inorganic matter and the ability of organic matter to replicate themselves, but also some of them skip the formation of mitochondria and the formation of nuclear membranes...... Primitive archaea still exist, but they are destined to have lost their heyday.

The most murderous thing is that Xiao Cheng also threw a small number of multicellular organisms into it...... It can be said that most of the time in the history of life evolution has been directly skipped, and this most of the time refers not to the early history of life evolution, but to the entire history of life evolution! In the coming era, when the planetary environment is modified, the artificially adjusted genes in these engineered bacteria will unlock the ability to mutate and evolve, and then the creatures will enter a glorious era of species explosion......

"Hmph~ It's finally all thrown!" Stretching her waist like a malicious seller, Xinglan grinned, "Aren't you going to have a ribbon-cutting ceremony or something?" ”

"Forget it...... Ahem! Xiao Cheng suddenly coughed again, and the mask of the spacesuit was also stained with blood, "It seems that time is running out." ”

"Xiao Cheng, you ......"

"Remember, the base above the Qing Dynasty has enough production plants and maintenance machinery, and even the main system program has the function of regularly self-replicating and then refreshing, theoretically speaking, as long as there is enough energy and mineral supply, and it is not destroyed by unimaginable forces, that base can exist almost forever......" Xiao Cheng kept saying as if he was explaining what was going on, "And the simulation robot you are using now, if you put it inside the base, The miniature atomic robots inside the robot can use microwaves to wirelessly recharge and then maintain the body. Even if you don't use it for many years, you can make sure it works properly. ”

Xiao Cheng ...... Is there really no other way? Xinglan looked at Xiao Cheng blankly, holding on to the last glimmer of hope.

"Maybe a more powerful super civilization will have a way to solve this kind of problem......" Xiao Cheng smiled and touched Xinglan's head, "But I really can't do anything now, after all, I'm not a guy who knows everything." ”

"Hmm......"

"Xinglan, if one day I'm really gone......" Xiao Cheng stood on a protruding rock and opened his arms, "just scatter my ashes into this boundless sea, and let me be with this newborn world forever......"

“…… What! Why did it suddenly become such a sadistic style? Could it be that some warrior of love has appeared here? Xing Lan spat sharply, and the girl turned her head and stared at Xiao Cheng deadly, "Obviously...... Isn't there another way? ”

“…… Huh? ”
