My neighbor left.
He left the key to me before leaving.
Now I am the last Gaia to guard the tomb for our civilization.
When I die, our civilization is declared to be over.
I still have a flower of memory left in my hand, and it has little energy left, but I think maybe I can leave something for myself...
Perhaps later generations will be confused about why we go from prosperity to destruction.
I have thought about this question countless times, and I did not understand this question until I held the last flower of memory in my palm.
It is not disaster that destroys our civilization, but despair.
When the end of the world comes, hundreds of millions of compatriots die before us.
Some die from the disaster itself, but more of them die from our vulnerability in the face of disaster.
We have considered thousands of solutions, including immigration to a chaotic earth, and flying to further away galaxies to continue our civilization.
I believe we can survive the unknown land, but in the end we chose to leave ourselves a fairly decent tombstone.
Surprisingly, I felt a little relieved about such an ending.
Maybe I still have some regrets, I can no longer smell the wonderful fragrance, and I can no longer sense the intoxicating spiritual rhythm... But this is just a regret for me, the remaining three thousand Martian days, not for our civilization itself.
Our civilization has no regrets.
Maybe this ending is also good?
In the last moment, we choose the most democratic vote to determine our own destiny.
This is probably the most fair vote we have ever had.
But the result is expected to be consistent.
Everyone chose to stay.
We placed the key on the spacecraft and watched it go away.
Ironically, we have never hoped for the cold starry sky, but we are now fantasizing that one day there will be creatures passing by and writing our story in another word...
……
Like a poem.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen made an evaluation.
The popular narrative method of Gaia civilization is not in the form of words, but directly communicates with spirit.I believe you have experienced that feeling, and that feeling is not easy to describe in words. I just copied it based on my impression.Amos shrugged, but the most important thing is not the beginning part, and he also mentioned the matter about the ruins later.
About the ruins?
Jiang Chen frowned slightly and looked at Amos and asked.
What's up?
Their remains are divided into three parts, part of which is the living area, which is the part you see.The second part can be opened through the key, which is the database, and the data inside is stored in something called the "Flower of Memory".
Speaking of this, there was a rare hint of desire on Amos's face.
If I'm not mistaken, that kind of thing should be the kind of thing we encounter!It can directly connect with a person's spirit, and then directly enter the knowledge stored in it into a person's brain!God... I dare to assert that once this thing is unearthed, scientists around the world will go crazy!
Directly use the spirit to transmit knowledge?
A trace of shock flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes.
Can you still play like this?
It’s not that he has seen something similar, such as the virtual reality learning system that has become a mess in the end of the world, which can also quickly literate.
However, the mechanism of action of this system is only to extend the time in the virtual reality system, allowing users to experience 2 hours or even longer in a real time.
In this state, a person's ability to receive knowledge will accelerate, and the load on the brain will drop to a minimum...
However, even this way of learning has a major premise, that is, people must spend energy to learn.
But according to Dr. Amos' description, this flower of memory has completely abandoned the learning process of knowledge, but is a more thorough indoctrination, probably similar to the initiation or transmission of skills in martial arts and fairy tales novels... The martial arts are too low?
It doesn’t matter, I’ll pass on your tens of thousands of years of skill!
What do you mean is that the flower of memory can turn an idiot into a scientist?
This is too exaggerated. Even if an ordinary person has mastered those memories, it will be useless if he can't digest them.But if a scholar with a certain foundation, or at least a scientific mind, touch the flower of memory, he will undoubtedly become the most knowledgeable person in the world!Because he will inherit the knowledge of a higher civilization!Even if it's just a part!Looking at Jiang Chen, Amos's eyes were filled with a passion, so I said that once this thing is unearthed, scientists around the world will go crazy!
No physical object can withstand the baptism of more than three billion years. Perhaps the hasty material can be, but it only has one.
Therefore, the Gaia civilization chose to store all the memories of its civilization in the flower of memory, and no matter what exists in any entity, it uses the spirit of the creature itself as the carrier.
But in this way, Jiang Chen felt new confusion in his heart.
So what is the flower of memory?
Why can it exist for more than 3 billion years?
Perhaps this question will only be answered until the ruins re-see the light of day.
Come back to his senses from thinking, Jiang Chen and Amos, who had a fanatical look, met with a look, and immediately understood something, so he said with a smile.
Don't worry, after the ruins are unearthed, yours will definitely be indispensable.
He patted his shoulder and responded to the expectation and fanaticism, Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Amos cast a grateful look to Jiang Chen.
Thank you, I really don't know how to thank you.
No need to thank me, your contribution to Future People Group deserves this reward.Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Judging from the Gaia civilization's description of the flower of memory, there must be more than one.
After all, it is the legacy of a civilization, and it is impossible for one person to inherit it all, not to mention that a person's brain cannot hold so many things.
After all, it is a technology that can penetrate the core of the earth, and its advancedness is naturally unquestionable.
Although not all technologies are useful to humans, even if they are shared to the tip of the iceberg, it is enough to allow an unknown scientist to stand at the top of the field.
This thing can't be cheaper for outsiders, and Jiang Chen has no intention of making this matter public.
As an outstanding researcher of the Future People Group, this memory flower is naturally indispensable.
By the way, you said the ruins are divided into three parts, so what is the third part?Jiang Chen continued to ask.
The third part is the specimen library.Amos replied in a sure tone.
Specimen library?Jiang Chen frowned.
That's right, and it's a specimen library that has been damaged from that year.Amos nodded, if my guess is correct, the devil worm we encountered on Mars ran out of the specimen library.In addition, according to the memory, in response to the doomsday crisis, researchers from the Gaia civilization synthesized an oxygen-making fungus that could grow in extreme environments, but for some unknown reason, the project was ultimately not completed.
In other words, the oxygen-making fungus specimens we found on Mars are...
It may be an incomplete item.Of course, this is just my guess.Amos shrugged, and in disrepair, the spores of oxygen-making bacteria spread from the specimen bank to the outside world, adapting to the atmospheric environment of Mars over hundreds of millions of years of evolution.Later, species such as devil worms also ended their dormancy one after another, leaving the damaged specimen library, forming the current Mars underground ecosystem.
...that is.A bad idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen's mind.
I'm afraid it's not just a devil worm, nor is it just an oxygen-making fungus, but also a lot of things we have never seen before.Dr. Amos took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I used to find it strange that the ecosystem composed of a food chain can last for hundreds of millions or even hundreds of billions of years?"
He left the key to me before leaving.
Now I am the last Gaia to guard the tomb for our civilization.
When I die, our civilization is declared to be over.
I still have a flower of memory left in my hand, and it has little energy left, but I think maybe I can leave something for myself...
