Chapter 204 Cosmic Virtual World Network, Gene Bomb!
July 5th.
A Rolls-Royce with the license plate number [Wu·A88888] drove into the Galaxy Virtual World Group.
After a while.
Lu Chen got out of the car with a serious expression and went to the group's core laboratory.
The employees of Galaxy Virtual World were a little puzzled when they saw this scene.
In normal days.
Dean Lu Chen is always like a spring breeze.
But today, his expression is very dignified.
Could it be that something major has happened to the virtual world group?
As the employees guessed.
Galaxy Virtual World Group, a big event has indeed happened!
It's not that there's something wrong with the virtual world.
It is the signal that the virtual world accidentally comes into contact with other virtual worlds when it is operating.
More precisely.
It is a signal of contact with other civilizations!
For this reason, Lu Chen rushed to the group's core laboratory as soon as he got the news.
The core laboratory has a very large area.
Between dozens of floors, there are hundreds of galactic quantum computers.
One of the main conference rooms.
Lu Chen met Academician Li Bowen, the developer of the virtual world.
Just in March this year.
Academician Li Bowen won the Turing Award, the highest award in the computer field.
This is also the second Turing Award winner in the history of Xia Kingdom.
After the two sides exchanged simple greetings.
Lu Chen immediately asked: "Academician Li, you said that the galaxy virtual world has received signals from other civilizations' virtual worlds, is this confirmed?"
"Very sure!"
Li Bowen said in a deep voice: "Our Xia Country 650 is the first country in the world to develop a virtual world network, surpassing other countries by one dimension.
At this stage, although other countries are also researching the virtual world network, they have not made much progress.
They can only pay huge sums of money and apply to us for access to the Galaxy virtual world, so as to obtain the qualification to enter the virtual world.
Therefore, the virtual world signal received this time can exclude the actions of other countries.
In addition, the text information in the signal, etc., does not exist with any country on the earth. "
hear this.
Lu Chen had a complicated expression.
The scientific community generally believes that there is alien life in the Milky Way.
However, with the existing technology of human beings, the existence of aliens cannot be observed at all.
The current view of human beings on alien civilization is that they both hope to have it and hope not to have it.
If there is no alien civilization.
That human beings are too lonely in the universe.
If there is an alien civilization.
I am also afraid that the alien civilization is too strong and will harm human civilization.
all in all.
This emotion is very contradictory and tangled.
Lu Chen asked: "Academician Li, you didn't spread the news, did you?"
"of course not!"
Li Bowen shook his head: "We know that the existence of aliens will cause panic in the society. Therefore, I am the only one in the group who knows this information."
Lu Chen (cfai) nodded and returned to the subject: "Academician Li, how did the alien civilization contact the virtual world?"
Li Bowen slowly popularized science: "Dean Lu, you should understand the Internet.
Websites on the Internet are actually domain names and IP addresses. Both enterprises and individuals can register websites.
The same is true for virtual worlds.
In the virtual world network, there are countless virtual worlds.
Our galaxy virtual world is just one of them, which is equivalent to a certain website on the Internet.
simply put.
Galaxy virtual world, in the vast virtual world network, has its own 'domain name' and 'IP address'
Alien civilization, through certain channels, is connected to the virtual world of the galaxy and transmits most of the information. "
The voice fell.
Lu Chen suddenly realized.
If there are really alien civilizations in the universe.
In these alien civilizations, there must be extremely technologically advanced existences!
Human history is very short, and a galaxy virtual world can be constructed in the virtual world network.
The alien civilization on the technological side must also be able to build a virtual world.
Therefore, it is actually very reasonable for alien civilizations to "search" the galaxy virtual world in the virtual world network.
Lu Chen continued to ask: "Academician Li, since you just said that the alien civilization has conveyed some information to us. So what is this information?"
Li Bowen said slowly: "At first, we didn't know what the information meant.
However, with the help of artificial intelligence, we have deciphered these messages.
The specific information is as follows.
The extraterrestrial civilization that contacts us is located in the sixth area of the Orion constellation of the Milky Way, and it is called the underground civilization.
This civilization lives in underground space all year round.
The specific degree of civilization is difficult to estimate.
But for sure.
Since they can contact us through the virtual world, the level of technology must not be low.
The opponent's request is.
The leader of the underground civilization was hit by the genetic weapon of the higher civilization—the genetic bomb.
They hope that there is a civilization willing to help them solve the gene bomb.
Whoever can solve the gene bomb [will get their most precious technology-planet transformation.
astronomically.
Sanqi VI is a star in the constellation of Orion, with names such as Orion 3 and Orion 1, and is about 26.32 light-years away from the earth.
There are no planets around this star.
According to this understanding.
The underground civilization may live on a star that has been transformed by them.
hear this.
Lu Chen fell silent.
Underground civilization?
Gene bomb?
Planet terraforming?
It sounds like the technological level of underground civilization is much higher than that of human civilization.
Li Bowen said: "Dean Lu, planetary transformation technology is very important to us.
Once we master this technology, we may be able to transform planets such as the moon and Mars into living planets suitable for human survival in the future.
Look, shall we give it a go? Try cracking the gene bomb?"
In his opinion.
The current medical level of the earth has reached an unbelievable level.
A genetic bomb that other civilizations cannot solve.
Maybe the Galaxy Gene Group can find a solution.
Lu Chen pondered: "The gene bomb, as the name suggests, is a biochemical weapon with extremely strong lethality, and it also has the function of gene recognition.
It can judge a person's gene type based on some genetic characteristics, thereby changing the other's gene sequence, destroying its immune system, and producing a fatal killing effect.
Generally speaking, weapons of this level are aimed at high-level or leaders of a certain civilization.
From the genetic level.
If we can know the other party's original gene sequence, then we have the opportunity to restore the other party's altered gene sequence.
However, due to differences in civilization.
We have no understanding of underground civilization, and we may not be able to solve the genetic bomb. "
Li Bowen smiled and said: "Dean, when the other party contacted us, they had already sent a copy of the genetic sequence of the underground civilization and related resources of the genetic bomb.
We can give it a try, if we can crack it, we can naturally get the planet transformation technique.
Even if we can't break it, we have nothing to lose.
I think the message sent by the other party should be sent through the virtual world network. There is a high probability that many civilizations have received this message. "
"That's OK!"
Lu Chen nodded and said: "Then I will call some scientific research elites from Galaxy Gene Group to overcome the gene bomb together!"
At this moment, he felt a strong sense of urgency.
It is now July.
However, the level of science and technology has just mastered the technology of controllable nuclear fusion.
Humans have not landed on the moon, marching towards the sea of stars.
In the virtual world here, alien civilizations suddenly appeared.
If it's far, it doesn't really matter.
But the position of the solar system is the Orion spiral arm, which is not very far from the underground civilization.
Think here.
Lu Chen felt that the speed of technological transition must be fast.
Otherwise, human civilization may be very passive in the future. .
