Chapter 382 Organic Harvesters? (For the leader PoPoLanLan

Just as these experts were talking, informatics expert Li Zhendong stood up and expressed his unique opinions.

"Professor, don't be too excited. Why do I have a little doubt, the enlightener civilization, let's just go to this name for now... Is it really a kind-hearted civilization?"

He spread his hands and questioned: "Riley civilization is a very ancient religious civilization. A brilliant culture was born millions ago, including words and languages. It has been stagnant for a long time and has been in a stable state. If this continues, there is probably no progress. But what is the purpose of the enlightener civilization planting the 'world tree'? Can it promote the development of Riley civilization?"

"You know, this species can trigger a mass extinction!"

"I even feel that we over-interpreted this event. The enlightener just wanted to use the world tree to turn all the carbon elements on this planet into this coal-like organic matter, and then harvest it at one time."

"We already have relevant common sense of the universe. Organic matter is more valuable than ordinary metals in the trading market! For more advanced civilizations, as long as the core resources can be mined, metal elements are inexhaustible, including various rare earth elements, which are everywhere in the depths of the core. But organic matter is different. There is only a thin layer on the surface of the planet, and there is nothing more to want!"

"Using such biotechnology to collect organic matter is more cost-effective and more effective!"

He said with great emotion: "It's really a big deal, a big deal to harvest a planet at one time! Maybe it's not just this one, but... countless planets! Including the former Earth, it's just that the plan on the Earth may not be successful."

The conference room was silent for a while. Zhang Yuan even felt his hair standing up, from kindness to evil, as if it was just a moment of effort.

Soon, Li Zhendong's guess caused a big stir!

People thought at the same time that if this civilization is really "evil", then...

Have they done anything to humans and the earth?

The conference room was quiet and terrifying for a while.

The biologist hesitated for a moment and defended him: "I still feel that the enlightener civilization is full of kindness to the Riley civilization. Professor Li, if you want to implement this plan that lasts for millions or even tens of millions of years, you should choose a planet rich in carbon and conduct experiments, right?"

Li Zhendong nodded, "It is indeed... the starting point is very important."

The biologist continued: "However, Riley Star has not a high carbon component, but it is just a little more than the Earth. According to you, you should choose a planet similar to Venus and full of carbon dioxide on the surface, so that you can maximize your interests. Why should the enlightener choose Riley Star? It's completely unpaid!"

Li Zhendong said loudly with his neck red: "They may have laid out countless planets. There is no need to consider whether it is cost-effective. It's like we use large seeds to sow in the fields. It doesn't matter whether the seed can germinate, as long as it can grow plants. It doesn't matter if the harvest is small. Will you think about how the harvest of a certain wheat is like?"

"But why hasn't the Earth been harvested? There are Venus and Mars!"

"Because this plan cannot be 100% successful, are foreign species destroyed by native species? Or climate disasters have eliminated foreign species! Oh, by the way, don't you think Australia's life evolution is very strange? Maybe it was done by aliens?" Li Zhendong's mind was very enigmatic.

"Professor Li, the Australian species existed in fossils from millions of years ago, and the time nodes were not up to par."

Just as the two were arguing about this, Zhang Yuan suddenly said: "You listen to me first. First of all, if the civilization of the World Tree is transformed, it is really the 'inspirator civilization' that the Glitzer civilization has encountered. Judging from their actions, there will be no particularly malice."

"Because the Glitzer civilization has clear written records, the enlighteners let them know the existence of science and the existence of electricity."

"Secondly, if you want to use biotechnology to fix carbon elements and use microorganisms with the strongest reproductive ability, such as algae, it is much more efficient than the World Tree, right?"

"If this civilization is indeed powerful enough, it should be no problem to develop such microorganisms. Not a tall plant like the World Tree, although the final effect is the same, the efficiency is undoubtedly more than a little less."

Li Zhendong was thoughtful and didn't say anything, which was a little hard to explain. If he forced himself to identify a more advanced civilization, he would not develop such microorganisms, which would only make people laugh, and even he himself would not believe it.

Everyone gradually calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief.

An interstellar civilization wants to mine substances, there is no need to adapt to local conditions and modify the genes of local species.

"If they have great malicious intentions, they can directly develop one or more super microorganisms, eliminate all animals and plants, and then reproduce without restrictions. The Rileys do not need to let them live, and they will create variables in vain."

In this way, the efficiency is tens of thousands of times higher than that of a simple World Tree. The species extinction plan that can be completed in tens of millions of years can be completed by the World Tree. It is possible to use super microorganisms to complete it in hundreds of years...

Zhang Yuan said again: "Actually, everyone, think about it carefully, I still feel that the enlightener has a certain kindness. The world tree in this world is not necessarily bad for the Riley civilization."

"First, the World Tree provides a lot of food and living space. At least in ancient times, with a place to shelter from wind and rain, the possibility of starving to death was much less. Without the World Tree, their population would be much smaller, and the development of civilization would be even more difficult. How could it be as comfortable as it is now?"

"Second, World Tree provides very good building materials. The performance of this tree core is comparable to that of the 20th century steel bars, and it is not easy to rot and is not easily oxidized by air. This biological material can still be used in the 20th century or 21st century of human beings!"

"It should not be difficult for everyone to understand how convenient this will bring to development. Whether it is infrastructure or building a house, even steel bars can be saved."

Many people nodded. When civilization was underdeveloped, there was a high-performance material that could replace steel. What a huge advantage.

Steel, the cornerstone of civilized industrialization, almost all industrialized countries' industrial processes began with the large-scale steelmaking. Without steel, there would be no other industrial products, there would be no high-rise buildings, and there would be no guns, cannons, cars and ships.

If "steel" could grow in the ground in the early stages of civilization development, its convenience would certainly be self-evident.

"Oh, by the way, there is a third point. Because of the emergence of the World Tree, more carbon elements have been fixed, and more fossil resources have appeared in the whole world! If Riley civilization truly developed modern technology, it would definitely be thankful to these fossil resources. Who wouldn't want to have more fossil fuels in the early stages of civilization development!"
