Chapter 175: The Sea of the Womb

Shen Xilin snorted and said, "Three-Body World, you are talking about lightness. In order to integrate into the Beacon Star, we need to build a fortress with a vast engineering, and this fortress is bound to be isolated from the gas of the Beacon Star, how do you do this? ”

Summer sighed and said, "Alas, people say: uneducated, it's terrible. I didn't believe it at first, but it seems that I can't believe it today. Let me ask Lord Shen, one of the high-tech items of the Ming fleet is the energy shield, what is it used for? ”

As soon as Summer's words came out, everyone suddenly realized, but Shen Xilin did not admit defeat, but held his head high and said: "The energy shield is used to protect the spaceship from enemy attacks. ”

Summer sneered and said, "When I fought the Star Worm, my spaceship was attacked by 50 billion Zerg, and if it weren't for the energy shield, my spaceship and I would have turned into powder long ago. We can use the energy shield to build a human fortress on the lighthouse, and since the shield can block energy attacks, it can also block air circulation. Is that right? ”

"Brother Xia," Feng Qiuyan said, "None of us have tried to use the energy shield to build a fortress that can isolate the air, so I don't know if we can succeed." Besides, the shield can resist energy attacks and high-speed impacts, but it may not be possible to isolate the air. ”

"How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try?" "And the fortress is built inside the atmosphere of the lighthouse star, so it is not afraid of air leakage." Build an air filtration device like a chrysanthemum pestle in the middle of the fortress...... "In the summer, the mass pestle that can charge the ship is called a chrysanthemum pestle, because it is charged under the butt of the ship, and it feels like a chrysanthemum is exploding.

Summer opens the virtual array, fiddles with both hands, and draws a sketch of the fortress in the array. The sketch shows a device encased in a large bubble that is an energy shield.

"The energy shield can't completely block the air, but it can largely block the flow of air between the inside and the outside. The machine in the middle is a gas filtration device, which can filter out harmful gases to the human body, so that the air inside the fortress can be turned into breathable air.

"There will be a small amount of gas flowing around the edge of the energy shield, but it will not get in the way, there will be gas from the Beacon Star outside. The intrusion of harmful gases caused by the circulation of this air flow does not affect the internal gases and is completely acceptable. How, is my idea feasible? Summer looked at the crowd.

The solution that Summer said is theoretically feasible as long as it is supported by technical support. So the people began to talk about it. If this plan is really implemented, it will not affect the survival of the original residents of Lighthouse Star, but also allow the people of Daming to live and work in peace and contentment. It's the best of both worlds.

"Brother Xia, you are awesome!" Zheng Yunyan boasted.

"Is my idea still scary?" Summer said proudly, "Do you still think I'm a cold-blooded animal in your heart?" ”

"No, you're the smartest person. How did you come up with this? ”

"Little CASE, such a small thing, if it were on Earth, someone would have come up with it and started to put it into practice." At this point, Summer looked at the crowd and said, "I don't mean that everyone is stupid, but there is a fundamental problem involved. ”

"What's the problem?" Feng Qiuyan asked.

"That's the problem of population," Summer said, "and wisdom is the crystallization of the collective, and if the population is too small, it is difficult for wisdom to be amplified, and it is difficult for civilization to develop." Therefore, the biggest problem that Daming has to face is the population problem. After the lighthouse fort is built, the next step is to vigorously reward fertility and good childbearing. ”

"How do you expand the population?" Shen Xilin said, "At present, the ratio of men and women is seriously out of balance, the number of conceptions is low, and the proportion of newborns with intellectual and physical disabilities remains high. Is it possible to mix with the treefolk of the Beacon Star? ”

Summer smiled and said, "Of course not, the tree people breathe and have a completely different digestive system from us, so it is impossible to achieve the purpose of multiplying the population by intermarrying with them." ”

"You still know that this can't be done," Shen Xilin said with a sneer, "Then what do you say?" ”

Summer said these four words briefly: "The sea of the womb." ”

"The sea of the womb?" The crowd didn't understand what it meant.

"Do you think I've been playing purely during my seven years on Dawn II?" Summer said that in his 29 years on Dawn 2, 22 years were hibernating, two years were small hibernating, 20 years were deep hibernation, and the rest was naturally seven years of awakening time. "I've been researching Daming's technology for a long time."

Summer looked at everyone and said: "The most important scientific and technological component of Daming is biotechnology, we can build a sea of womb and put fertilized eggs in the sea of womb to cultivate." This has two advantages, one is to avoid the pain of conception, and the other is to a large extent. ”

Summer's words caused an uproar, and Shen Xilin was the first to object: "It's against nature, it's against human ethics, Lord Xia, you can think of it!" It's a must-have! ”

"Never?" Summer sneered and said, "Why not?" In artificial breeding, each fertilized egg is registered to prevent inbreeding. ”

"Register a fertilized egg?" Shen Xilin asked, "Let me ask Lord Xia, where did the fertilized egg come from?" Provided by the people of Daming? What's the difference between that and natural childbirth? ”

"You're going to be wrong about me," Summer said his bold idea, "not to solicit fertilized eggs. Instead, the eggs and sperm of a single body are artificially fertilized. Fertilization, embryo reproduction, and production are all done in the sea of the womb. ”

"Haha, it's incredible, it's incredible!" Shen Xilin said loudly: "Your idea is too ridiculous! That would create moral and ethical disputes. ”

"No," Summer continued his bold plan, completely ignoring Feng Qiuyan's secret glance at him, "All eggs and sperm are registered anonymously, and only excellent eggs and sperm can enter the sea of wombs. Optimal gene comparison can be carried out before the corresponding artificial insemination can be carried out. All fertilized eggs are registered.

"Newborns born through the Sea of the Womb are still subject to genetic registration, and when they grow up, they can be born naturally through free marriage, or they can continue to choose to provide excellent eggs or sperm into the Sea of the Womb to breed the next generation. Of course, when you are in free love, you will decide whether you are suitable for marriage through genetic comparison. ”

Summer finished his "great idea" in one breath and looked at the crowd. Everyone was silent, this approach is really bold, even if it is technically allowed, it is indeed very likely that there will be moral and ethical problems as Shen Xilin said.
