The project about the plasma spark tower that Castor brought with him really hit Masaki Keigo a lot, because he lived in the laboratory again.

Casto pushed open the door of the laboratory with his own Chinese breakfast, milk and eggs for Keigo Masaki, looked at Keigo Masaki behind the mirror, and said with telekinesis, "Don't you really need to take a break?" Dagu told me that you hadn't been out of the lab for a few days and nights. ”

"Humph! Eventful guys! Keigo Masaki pointed to the table next to him, motioned for Casto to go over first, and took off his protective suit and goggles and walked out of the dust-free laboratory, "That guy doesn't understand, don't you understand?" I study 'light' every day in the lab, let alone sleep, and I can even skip any food! ”

"I'm afraid that's not realistic." Casto shook his head, "Although you can squeeze yourself indefinitely on the physical level, it is impossible for both the spirit and the soul to not rest. ”

Keigo Masaki picked up the milk a little unconvinced, and Casto said seriously when he saw this, "Keigo Masaki, you remember, all the injuries we suffer in the human posture may indeed be suppressed and repaired by the 'light', but light is not omnipotent, if one day your body reaches the limit that even light cannot repair, then the moment you become light, all the damage will explode at once." ”

Keigo Masaki was taken aback by Castor's serious expression, the last time he saw Castor with such an expression was when he took out the Evolution Truster for the second time, subconsciously, Keigo Masaki took a sip of milk, "I know, I'll go and rest." ”

"How's it going? What about that? ”

Talking about business, Keigo Masaki also became serious, "Tifaleta ray, I remember you called that kind of heavy atom beam, right?" ”

Castor nodded.

"Tsk, your reasoning does make sense, this thing is indeed very likely to be the origin of the Giants of Light, the light of their life." Keigo Masaki paused when he said this, and it seemed that the next words made him feel a little difficult to speak, "But this light of life has a huge price. ”

"The civilization that developed the Plasma Spark Tower must be a civilization that still needs the sun, and from the information you gave, I deduce that this thing should be an early version, the beginning of 'evolution', and as they evolve into giants of light, there should be a new and upgraded version that is more suitable for them."

Casto pondered for a moment before he spoke, "I don't know how you deduced it, but it is, this thing is indeed the earliest version. ”

"Hmph, because I'm Keigo Masaki!" Keigo Masaki shook his head, he didn't delve into the secret that Casor was hiding, but continued, "But if that's the case, the problem is serious, if it's really as I calculated, then the moment the plasma spark tower is lit up, most of the animals and plants in the civilization will die in an instant. ”

"This kind of heavy atom containing huge energy will disrupt or shatter the genetic material of most living things in an instant, and the vast majority of living organisms will die immediately because the cells cannot be regenerated."

Casto was stunned for a moment, "You seem to be talking about chemotherapy?" ”

"It's similar, but the results can be worse than that." Keigo Masaki said in a low tone, "A large number of life beings will die in an instant, and those who do not die will have uncontrollable mutations, most of which will completely lose the ability to survive in the universe after a few generations, and the rest will have huge 'mutations'." ”

"The result of this 'mutation' is monsters, or rather, monsters."

Casto drank the soy milk from the cup, then crushed the plastic cup containing the soy milk, and looked up at Keigo Masaki, "You won't tell me, so is the Giant of Light."

"First of all, although I use the word 'mutation,' I think this situation should be called hyperevolution." Keigo Masaki didn't stop because of Castor's mood swings, but continued, "Hyper-evolution refers to the way of evolution that goes beyond the traditional biological understanding of humans. ”

"For example, monsters, including the Gakuma beneath Kurara Island, which you located, the giant lifeform that stayed in the ionosphere and was mutated from the Lightning Man, the plasma lifeform Killilords merged, the Giant Killilords, and the Giants of Light."

"Contrary to the traditional way of categorizing biology, in a broad sense, I think that all "organisms that are beyond the traditional way of human biological cognition and evolution" should be collectively referred to as monsters.

Due to the scarcity of 'hyper-evolutionary' events, most of the time such creatures should be seen as individual individuals, who generally possess huge size and a combination of multiple known biological features, and have great destructive power, and some even possess special abilities or forms of existence that humans cannot parse for the time being.

At the same time, due to the fact that they have generally evolved a dense body that supports their huge bodies, it is difficult for ordinary human weaponry to cause effective damage to such creatures. ”

"Almost, but you said it was. Monsters in the broadest sense? Casto noticed Keigo Masaki's words.

"Yes, it's a monster in the broadest sense of the word." Keigo Masaki's tone became more and more serious, "Because according to my classification, then the Killielodes, the Giants of Light, and even the Lightning Men should also be defined as monsters. ”

"But that's not right, these three are obviously three races, and they should be classified as 'civilization'." Casto retorted, "Monsters and civilizations should always be distinguished, right?" ”

Keigo Masaki nodded, "Here's the problem, according to my speculation, the entire group of Giants of Light is superhumans who have undergone super evolution, and they are survivors of natural or human selection, so naturally they shouldn't be called monsters." ”

"However, the Giants of Light, or civilizations like them, have all completed hyper-evolution, or have the ability to hyper-evolve." Castor finally understood what Keigo Masaki meant, "Are you worried that there are a large number of such civilizations in the universe?" ”

Keigo Masaki nodded, then there was some silence.

For the earth, the existence of monsters is terrifying enough, but if it is placed in the universe, there may be a large number of civilizations that have collectively completed the route of 'super-evolution' and moved towards the strength of 'monsters'.

Such a fact is a big shock for Keigo Masaki.

"No wonder you've been staying in the lab for a long time, you're scared?" Casto looked at Keigo Masaki, "Forget it, no, I'll go to the universe"

"Shut up and listen to me." Keigo Masaki took out his transformer with some shame.

Casto: ?

If I taunt you twice, you are going to transform, are you sick?

Keigo Masaki looked at Casto's confused eyes, and his emotions suddenly changed from shame to anger, "You idiot, how the hell did you write down these things, I even suspect that what you gave me was written when you were dreaming!" ”

"What?"

"Hmph, you used to have mood swings because I used the word 'mutation', but you didn't realize that the fact that we became giants of light, what happened when we transformed, is essentially a kind of 'super-evolution'." Keigo Masaki looked at Casto in a somewhat strange tone, "This means that what we have gained is actually the ability to turn into a 'monster'. ”

"And," Keigo Masaki looked at Castor with some hesitation, unsure if he was going to continue.

"And?" Casto looked at Keigo Masaki curiously, "Is there anything else you can't say?" ”

"And I think I may have discovered some of the truth about our transformation." Keigo Masaki said, "Or rather, I found out where that huge body was when we weren't transforming. It's a membrane universe that's close to our universe. ”

Keigo Masaki frowned, he didn't know how to explain it, but fortunately, Castor reacted.

"Subspace?" After Casto subconsciously said this word, he was surprised to see Keigo Masaki nodding.

"That's right! It is the word, subspace, closer than the so-called parallel universe, but farther from the real world! ”

Keigo Masaki looked at Casto with some excitement, and Casto was already full of question marks.

From the plasma spark tower, can you really see so many things?

Damn, this guy can't really be a genius, right?
