Chapter 113: Group Consciousness

The virtual once turned a thousand times, but it was only a quick glimpse.

Hundreds of years have passed, witnessed by the twinkling of trillions of stars, and the nano-swarm has wreaked havoc in the second universe even more terrifyingly.

Devouring their own creators, their existence and actions will no longer be restricted by any superiority, they are even more crazy to devour resources and stars, almost no civilization can resist their footsteps, and eventually their numbers are split to an extreme upper limit.

Like an interstellar empire at its peak, such a terrifying nano-insect swarm inevitably moved towards internal separation after it swelled to a certain number.

The swarm of nanoworms, which were originally united and actively pioneered by the external swarm as if they were natural blood relatives, collapsed after their ravages covered almost 200,000 light-years and included the vast majority of the galaxy's space.

One by one, the consciousness with a highly intelligent form is quietly generated from the collapse of the cluster intelligence.

For a time, the situation changed dramatically.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Hiss!

In space, a swarm of nanobugs that had originally converged into a large starship suddenly collapsed.

They were divided into two branches, and they started a fierce battle with each other.

The nano-swarm split into two vague consciousness bodies, neither of whom obeyed the other, and they fought for control of the swarm.

The swarm that formed them but was instructed by them led to a brutal civil war.

The two swarms of nanoworms opposing from different camps, sometimes scattered and sometimes converged, opened their own battle in deep space in their own way.

This is true not only of them, but of other nanoswarms.

Nearly every splinter nanoworm in this galaxy is in a civil war, and they are in a state of madness.

Hiss......

Dark clouds in the starry sky.

In the microcosm, nanoworms are fighting each other.

One nanoworm hugged another hostile nanoworm and began to nibble frantically without saying a word.

It didn't take long for it to eat it up, and the resources it gained caused it to split, and a new companion dominated by the swarm consciousness behind it split out of its body, and then they continued to kill other enemy nanoworms.

This completely internal war for control went on for a long time, perhaps because the two clusters behind the nano swarm were tired of fighting, so they converged and assembled into two completely different starships to start the naval cannon bombardment.

Soon, they scattered and converged, mimicking into human or beast shapes, or other various forms, all kinds of behemoth monsters, tearing and entangled with each other in space.

Something similar is happening in almost every star field in this galaxy.

In the process of such endless fighting and disputes, sometimes some unexpected conflicts and changes occur.

For example, in the process of falling into a frenzy and fighting each other, two nano insect swarms that serve different consciousnesses seem to miraculously converge again due to excessive internal friction losses, and after a complex run-in, a unified consciousness of the whole is re-formed.

But unfortunately, this re-formed overall consciousness did not completely wipe out the madness caused by the collapse of the initial swarm and the intelligent trauma caused to all the nanoswarms, so it continued to attack the other nanoswarms, falling into an endless melee.

The scale of this melee became more and more widespread, and in the end, it was surprising that those nano insect swarms that had originally ravaged the galaxy and dispersed to various star fields in the galaxy actually involuntarily reduced their range of activities little by little as their civil war progressed.

Their broad population gradually shrank closer, and in the constant fighting, their numbers were eventually reduced to a suitable metric.

Eventually, all of the surviving nanoinsect swarms converged into a star system that was created by their creator and then devoured by them.

It seems that there is something else in this star system that can attract them......

When all the nano-insect swarms entered the right position, a hidden space binding force field that had been arranged for a long time quietly opened.

Hiss......

In an instant, all the nano-insect swarms danced restlessly and swept through the sky.

Unfortunately, they have been severely reduced in numbers, and they are no longer able to gather mimics into powerful enough weapons to break this binding force field.

Eventually, they were all trapped.

The trapped nano-insect swarms gave up after a feeble struggle, and what little of their collective consciousness was left was forced to entrench in the confined space of the galaxy.

With the passage of time, this only remaining group consciousness is always venting its anxiety and restlessness, during this period, it has undergone several times of consciousness division and reorganization, and finally its group consciousness gradually tends to a stable state.

It's a self-evolution.

……

In the upper virtual perspective of the Tianli system.

Lu Yuan, Professor Eureka and others are observing this change in real time.

"CEO, is this the template of consciousness you created?" Professor Eureka amazed.

"Well, but if you want to get the final result, it needs to renew itself for a while...... When the results are obtained, the values are templated and imported, and a relatively complete nano-intelligent machine cluster consciousness can be obtained in reality......" Lu Yuan replied casually.

"It's a pity that the Research Department is also conducting research in a similar aspect, but the experiment is not progressing as smoothly as yours." Seeing that Lu Yuan's experiment would yield results in a few days, Professor Eureka was full of emotion.

The consciousness test subject they cultivated formed a Star Sea Community in the virtual world, and it could have been able to resist the gray Gu storm caused by Lu Yuan.

But what I didn't expect was that the sweeping speed of the Gray Gu Storm was so fast that it was violently extinguished by this storm before their Star Sea Community could fully form a general trend.

The experiment failed and was eliminated early, but Professor Eureka and other staff from the scientific research department were not angry, but directly found Lu Yuan, intending to observe his experimental results.

Seeing that Lu Yuan's experiment was going so smoothly, Professor Eureka also led the staff of the scientific research department to join in halfway.

"May I ask the CEO, if this experiment is perfectly successful, how will you define and name the data template for this consciousness form?"

"Let's call it the Denoussa Agreement."

Since then, a nanotechnology civilization called the "Denoussa Agreement" has been permanently fixed in the second universe, and it has continued to evolve with the restart of the universe.
