Chapter 872 Reinforcements
Many microorganisms seem insignificant, but humans have no good methods to deal with them, nor can they be completely eliminated in nature.
From the perspective of these microorganisms, they are the rulers of their world.
Every creature adapts to the world in its own way and tries to become the best in their world and continue the species.
Hearing Xu You say this, Hu Shucheng said in surprise:
"Old Xu, do you mean that they are consciously using this method to ensure the continuation of their own species? Can a single-celled organism really be so smart?"
Hearing this, Xu You said in a deep voice:
"To some extent, some seemingly low-level creatures possess a completely different kind of intelligence from ours. For example, in order to continue the colony, ants can willingly sacrifice some individuals, but the same thing will not happen in human society. At least humans will never be willing to make such sacrifices ."
Listening to Xu You's point of view, Hu Shucheng immediately remembered how some low-level creatures responded when faced with large-scale disasters.
Humans can sacrifice themselves for their loved ones, but if it is a fellow human being with whom they have no relationship, it is difficult for humans to do the same thing.
When it is necessary to sacrifice some people, human society can only force some people to serve as sacrifices, and cannot make these people willing to make sacrifices from the bottom of their hearts.
"Old Xu, what you said does make sense. Humans pay more attention to their own individuals, while these creatures pay more attention to the safety of the species. Perhaps when facing a major crisis, these low-level creatures are more likely to continue their species."
After everyone had a discussion, their mood improved a lot.
Although Xu You's arrival this time did not solve the problem substantially, it at least provided everyone with a lot of useful information and gave everyone the confidence to successfully deal with the crisis.
"Next, I will continue the experiment on the Martian organisms. I suggest that you suspend the experiment and let these Martian organisms hibernate again, or set the condition parameters to be more stringent to prevent these Martian cells from overgrowing."
"Okay, Academician Xu, we will follow your arrangements. When we get close to Blue Star, our three space fighters will come to your side and work with other team members to ensure your safety."
After explaining some final issues that needed attention, Xu You released control of the Mars robot and returned to low-Earth orbit.
According to the measurements of instruments, these Martian cells grew a lot during the time that Xu You was away.
Fortunately, the experimental container prepared by Xu You was very large, enough for these Martian creatures to grow to their maximum level.
"Oh, I wonder if Lao Hu and the others have been invaded by these Martian creatures. There is no good way to test their internal bodies, and there is no very good way to protect themselves." Xu You thought.
With Blue Star's current technological level, it is completely possible to eliminate all microorganisms remaining outside the body, but there is no particularly good way to eliminate microorganisms in the body.
It was precisely because of his concerns about these possible problems that Xu You made the firm decision not to allow them to return to Blue Star for the time being.
"No... I haven't done enough research on biology and medicine. It would be difficult for me to come up with all the solutions in a short period of time."
At this time, Xu You suddenly realized the insufficiency of his own strength.
Thinking of this, Xu You decided that he still had to think of some ways and find some helpers to help him solve the problem.
This time , Xu You did not contact the Shenzhou Space Administration again, but thought of Luo Wenkun.
Although Luo Wenkun does not possess any official power, as the chairman of the most powerful technology company on Blue Star, the power he possesses in some aspects is even stronger than that of the official.
Shortly after Xu You called Luo Wenkun, Luo Wenkun answered the phone.
"Xu You, are you okay over there?"
As soon as the call was connected, Luo Wenkun became concerned about Xu You's safety.
Luo Wenkun naturally knew where Xu You was and what he was doing, but Luo Wenkun did not interfere with Xu You's behavior at all. This showed that Luo Wenkun had complete trust in Xu You.
"I'm fine here. Wenkun, I came to you this time to ask you for a favor."
"Just tell me if you have anything to say. I will definitely spare no effort."
Xu You also trusted Luo Wenkun very much. Without saying anything else, he started talking about his own ideas.
"Wen Kun, we have encountered some problems in our exploration of Mars. This Martian creature is stronger than we thought, has very strong vitality, and has the potential to parasitize the human body and invade the blue planet. Therefore, I decided to conduct research in low-Earth orbit and temporarily prevent the Mars exploration team from returning to the blue planet..."
Xu You told Luo Wenkun about the situation he had encountered, and Luo Wenkun on the other end of the phone also frowned.
"I never thought that there is not only life on Mars, but also such a terrifying life. It seems that our timing of Mars exploration was not correct, which has increased our current burden."
Today, the Blue Planet is facing the risk of invasion by powerful alien civilizations, and Luo Wenkun’s current main focus is on solving these problems.
"No, Wenkun, I don't think this is adding to our burden. In fact, the gap between us and the Proxima civilization lies in the level of technology, and it is a comprehensive level of technology. It is completely impossible to catch up with the Proxima civilization in just one aspect."
Luo Wenkun seemed to understand Xu You's idea and continued to ask:
"Xu You, can you explain it in detail?"
"For example, if Proxima civilization attacks us with biological weapons and we have no relevant experience, we will not be able to respond well. Before the Proxima civilization arrives, we must have enough knowledge, and this kind of Martian creature can increase our experience in related fields."
After listening to Xu You's explanation, Luo Wenkun finally understood what Xu You was thinking.
"I see. It's just like the sea of questions we used to do in school. If you see enough types of questions during your daily practice, you will hopefully get a higher score on the exam. Of course, for a true academic master like you, this doesn't matter."
