Chapter 230: The Difference in Life Forms

Xiang Qian was also shocked after learning the news, this was the first time that human beings had found a life form that carbon-based life thought it would be. At that time, no one knew the life form of the Lilan tribe, because after the Lilan parasitized humans, it also became a carbon-based life, and no one knew whether the Lilan tribe was a carbon-based life or not.

"Now that we know its life form, is it possible to study a genetic virus that can deal with it based on its genes?" Xiang Qian immediately thought of this problem. For the time being, all the means of attack of humanity have no effect on Regetlos at all, which means that humanity has no way to deal with it.

Now that the structure of Regetlos' body is obtained, it would be easy to find a genetic virus that specifically targets it. The energy attack doesn't work, and the physical attack defense is too strong, but the attack against the gene, Xiang Qian doesn't believe that it can be prevented.

"This ...... It's hard to say, I'm not an expert in biology, these civilizations have to return to Earth and let the Green Star civilization study them, after all, they are experts. The scientist said embarrassedly.

"Okay, I got it." Xiang Qian nodded and said.

After the Greenland returned to Earth, Xiang Qian immediately organized a team of scientists from the Green Star Civilization and the Academy of Life Sciences led by Condensation to start working together to crack the genes of Regetlos.

Originally, Xiang Qian also wanted to say a few words to the team of scientists of the Green Star Civilization and propose some incentives to speed up the cracking. But how did he think that after this group of scientists heard him say that there were tissue samples of new forms of life for them to study, they didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and began to clamore for immediate research.

In the face of such a group of passionate free labor scientists. Xiang Qian didn't say anything anymore, and directly brought people to the real room. And then...... Then he became an idler, and no one cared about him at all. Even Condensation told him he wouldn't be home at night.

Well, there is no reason to talk to a group of scientists who are all going crazy, Xiang Qian pouted and left the real room, preparing to come back tomorrow.

At noon the next day, Xiang Qian finished his official business, and after lunch, he came to the real room again.

As a result, at this time when it was supposed to be a meal, there were not many fewer people in the real yàn room than when he left yesterday afternoon.

"Wife, have you eaten?" Xiang Qian came to Condensation's side. Said to Condensation, who was manipulating the computer.

"The nutrient solution you just drank, you don't have to eat." Condensation glanced at Xiang Qian, and after speaking, he continued to study the things on the computer.

“…… Has the genetic virus been studied? Xiang Qian asked speechlessly.

"Not so soon, this new type of life structure has subverted many theories in our known biological disciplines, and it is impossible to study the genetic virus against it without understanding this new life form."

"What's the difference? You can explain to me well, although I have always heard of carbon-based life, silicon-based life and the like, and now there is a multi-light element polymerization life, what is the difference between these life. I'm still not very clear, especially why humans are called carbon-based life. Xiang Qian stood in front of the condensation, not letting her look at the screen.

Condensation glanced at Xiang Qian, and stopped helplessly. said to Xiang Qian: "The difference in life forms is mainly due to the difference in the basic elements that make up life, just like human beings are called carbon-based life, that is because the organs and tissues of the human body are composed of carbon elements......"

"Wait. According to you, what are the basic elements of organizing life. What kind of life does that life belong to? Then why haven't I heard of iron-based life, copper-based life and other life forms, but I have heard about silicon-based life many times. It's basically all in science fiction. Could it be that other elements can't make up life, or is there some other reason? Xiang Qian interrupted the condensation and asked.

"Don't interject, listen to me. I can't say that there is no iron-based life in the universe, but as far as the current theory of human beings is concerned, it is really impossible to have any iron-based life. Although there are many elements in the periodic table, organic organisms tend to contain only five or six elements in large quantities, and one of the main elements that organic organisms contain in large quantities is carbon.

Carbon is the main component of sugar, protein, fat, DNA, muscle tissue, etc., and without carbon, human beings would not exist, which is why human beings are called carbon-based life.

What makes carbon so special is that it is the electronic configuration of a single atom, the electrons are distributed in a concentric "shell" around the central nucleus, and the carbon atom has four outermost electrons. The most stable atom has 8 electrons, which means that each carbon atom can form four bonds with the surrounding atoms.

Although more than carbon can form four bonds, atoms with four outer electrons such as silicon, tin, and lead have this property. The special thing about carbon is that it can form a double bond with one more electron than other atoms, which is why silicon-based life only exists in science fiction works, while humans actually exist. Condensation said as he displayed carbon and silicon atoms on the screen, which was more conducive to Xiang Qian's understanding.

"But with the current human technology, there should be no problem in forming silicon-silicon double bonds, so does it mean that silicon-based life can be made by humans." Xiang Qian thought of the current development of human basic materials technology, and there should be no problem in forming a stable silicon-silicon double bond.

"It is the material that is synthesized, not the living matter, and only the life formed by the matter that naturally evolves in nature can be regarded as a complete life. Created by human beings, it is called machine qì people, not life.

And what you're saying is also problematic, you haven't thought about why carbon has this double bonding property while silicon doesn't. I sue you, that's because of the volume.

The carbon atom has four outermost electrons and is the least numerous, which means that the electrons distributed in the upper and lower orbitals are so close that they can overlap and form a second bond. However, silicon has more electron orbitals, the volume of the entire atom is larger, and it is almost impossible for the outer orbitals to come close together to form a double bond.

This is why carbon dioxide is a small gas molecule made up of two carbon-oxygen double bonds, while silica is a behemoth made up of many silicon-oxygen atoms alternating between silicon-oxygen atoms, commonly known as sand. So if you think about life made of countless elements of silicon. What is its size, we can understand why nature chose carbon to make up life. Instead of silicon. Condensation said that he would not care about Xiang Qian, and continued to work on the screen.

"No wonder those Transformers are so big. It turns out that it's not that they don't want to get smaller, it's that the silicon atoms are too big and have swelled. Xiang Qian muttered, and he didn't bother himself here. Anyway, at present, human beings can't study any genetic viruses, so there is no hope for this matter, so let's think of other ways.

Xiang Qian did not return to the Earth Federation headquarters, but came to the Academy of Sciences to see if the number brought back this time would be of any help, and at the same time to have another meeting. Let's talk about a solution.

"How did you study the number I brought back yesterday, and did you come up with any solutions?" In the first sentence of the meeting, Xiang Qian directly asked the core question.

"According to the number jù, we can be sure that there is still damage caused by the electromagnetic railgun to it. But exactly, we don't know. According to the number jù analysis, before and after it was hit, there was a significant change in the number jù of radiation, although this change was not large. But the radiation number has dropped significantly.

However, we don't know the principle of the second stage of the electromagnetic railgun being intercepted, and there is no way to crack it. But because it has the means of interception, we can only give up long-range attacks in the future. So I think. The next means of attack, it is best to study the energy aspect, and the degree of electromagnetic weapons is always a hard flaw. ”

Xiang Qian finished speaking. A weapons researcher stood up and said, though a lot. But it's all nonsense, that is, the last sentence is somewhat useful.

"That energy attack weapon. Is there anything good to build? Xiang Qian continued to ask.

"At present, the energy weapons we are researching, whether they are particle weapons, ray weapons, etc., are all composed of positive matter particles. And the composition of that monster is also composed of a large amount of positive matter, similar to the inside of the sun.

Since positive matter does not do much for it, can we try something other than positive matter. For example, negative matter, antimatter, and dark matter, and the energy attack composed of such matter particles may have unexpected effects on them. The scientist who demolished Old Man Li last time said again.

As a result, Old Man Li immediately counterattacked, saying: "Hehe, negative matter, antimatter, dark matter, it's easy to say." Antimatter has also appeared in particle colliders, and the time of its appearance is still calculated subtly, even if it is captured by a strong magnetic field, it is only a few tenths of a second, let alone where to make a weapon. Not to mention dark matter, you brought me to open my old man's eyes.

There are many negative substances such as negative electrons, but these negative substances basically do not form a separate mass from atomic ions. Then you tell me, how can these three substances form weapons, you must not say that you can extract a few tons of antimatter and directly make bombs. ”

"Even if these three substances can't make weapons yet, I think that as long as the energy level is high enough, even ordinary laser weapons can cause damage to that monster."

"That's right, the energy level is high enough, then you raise the energy level of the laser weapon to the level of Nova explosion for me, then you will definitely be able to kill that monster."

"If the ...... of a strong magnetic field"

"Wait, don't talk about it." Xiang Qian's mind seemed to flash with a flash of inspiration just now. "Teacher, what did you just say?"

"Uh...... I didn't say anything, I said it was fun. Old man Li said embarrassedly, he also knew that it was not good to raise the bar so much in this kind of venue, so he blushed rarely.

"No, teacher, I don't blame you, what you just said can not blow up that monster." Xiang Qian frowned and finished speaking, he actually thought of something just now, but he didn't catch it. That aura was related to what Old Man Li said, so he wanted Old Man Li to say it again.

"I said antimatter, negative matter......" Old man Li saw Xiang Gan's serious expression, knowing that Xiang Qian didn't play him, although he didn't know what Xiang Qian was going to do, but he was still ready to repeat what he said, but he was interrupted by Xiang Qian just as he started to speak.

"Teacher, it's not this paragraph, it's the one you said later."

"Uh...... I said that if the energy level of the laser weapon was raised to the level of Nova explosion, it would definitely kill that monster. ”

After hearing this, Xiang Qian finally grasped the flash of spiritual light, that's right, it was the explosion of the new star.

"If a nova explodes, and that monster is right next to the nova that is about to explode, do you think that monster will die?" Xiang Qian asked excitedly.

Many scientists below were stunned for a moment, although this possibility is basically non-existent, but theoretically speaking, it is really possible to directly blow up the monster to death.

"If the nova explodes, it should be able to inflict a lot of trauma on that monster, but it's hard to say whether it can blow it up or not. Because the inside of that monster is similar to that of a star, it will be much more resistant to radiation after a nova explosion, so this is something we need to pay attention to. However, as long as there is information about its resistance to radiation and resistance to energy attacks, we can calculate the upper limit of the energy level it can withstand. One scientist said cautiously.

"Well, I see. Starry Sky, take out the number after the last time the Green Star Civilization detonated the giant starburst, and wait for you to study the energy level after the explosion of this giant star, and disperse. Xiang Qian finished speaking and left.

His idea was simple, since humans couldn't make weapons of such a powerful energy level, they would rely on the power of the universe to deal with Regetlos.

That's right, Xiang Qian just wanted to detonate the giant star again, a new star explosion.

Soon, Xiang Qian rushed to the research center of the Green Star Civilization and found the dean of the Academy of Sciences of the Green Star Civilization to explain his intentions. He wants the Green Star Civilization to create a plant weapon that detonates a giant star, and the effect is better than the last time, and the power after detonation is stronger than the last time.

In the face of Xiang Qian's request, the Green Star Civilization immediately began to organize personnel to start scientific research, and they had not studied the plant weapon that detonated the giant star for a long time. Unexpectedly, now Xiang Qian asked them to continue to study the kind of weapons that hurt the enemy by 1,000 and damaged 800 by themselves, so they could only start temporarily.

But fortunately, the current Green Star Civilization is not the previous Level 3 early civilization, and with the current Green Star Civilization's technological reserves, it is much easier to create more powerful plant weapons than before.

Therefore, after Xiang Qian's request, in less than three days, the new star explosion seed made by the highest technological means of the Green Star civilization was studied, and according to calculations, the power of the giant star detonation this time was definitely more than 100 times that of the last time.

Once the seed is obtained, all that remains is to know how strong Regotros' defense against energy attacks really is. For this reason, Xiang Qian deliberately asked Li Cheng to take 3oo people and drive the advance number to collect a number of jù. Only the energy insulation properties of special rare metals can defend against the powerful energy attacks of Regetloth. (To be continued!)
