Chapter 769: How to touch the stars

"I was terrified."
The face of the girl who grew up on the tree of wisdom said, "Even though I was only a dim mind at the time, there was no precise definition of the word ‘fear’.
"But any living body has an instinctive resistance to death.
"All the nerve bundles in my body are twitching and contracting violently, making the same sound-don't eat me! Go away! Don't eat me! Go away!

"Immediately after that, something incredible happened.
"I feel that this voice is transmitted to the head of the scavenger monster in a mysterious and mysterious way.
"After being confused for a while, it really gave up digging and tearing at me, turned around, and looked for other prey!
"It seems that the threat of death this time has stimulated me to evolve a brand-new ability. In addition to sharing perception, it can also interfere with the brain, central nervous system, and any form of thinking and decision-making organs of other living organisms to some extent.
"Of course, the degree of this interference is very slight. It is limited to allowing other living entities within the range of my perception to make relatively simple actions that do not strongly violate their instincts.
"For example, I can make a scavenger monster that is not hungry enough to go crazy, give up devouring me, and look for other prey.
"It is unlikely that it will produce a set of exquisite tools or deduced intricate mathematical formulas.
"After all, the brains and limbs of scavenger monsters are very low-level, and at the time, I was just an aggregate of these low-level creatures. I didn't even know how to make tools and formulate formulas. I didn't even have a bit of information about these. How can the concept of high-level wisdom influence, interfere, and impart to other living entities?
"Anyway, even the most basic intervention ability has greatly improved my living condition.
"My perception range has been further improved, reaching a radius of three to five hundred meters or even higher.
"I also used a large number of red threads that grew out of my body-they seem to be something similar to nerves, but more wonderful than the nerves of carbon-based life, tightly entwining several monsters that I have carefully selected, including The scavenger monster that tried to uproot me at first.
"I tried to perfectly integrate my nerves into the nervous system of these monsters, turning them into my eyes, ears, and minions. Then, I can get rid of the extreme distance of three to five hundred meters, seeing and hearing. To and change things thousands of meters away.
"Through this ability, I explored the entire misty region, knowing which mountain peaks are buried with psionic spar veins; which mountain peaks are entrenched with powerful monsters that are temporarily unattainable; which mountain peaks are It is the place where Chilong River and Hunu River meet. Although it looks like the land is fertile with lush aquatic plants, it is very suitable for thriving, but in fact it is extremely vulnerable to flooding and mudslides. The disaster of extinction.
"After completing this exploration, I know where my root system and nerve bundles should grow.
"The animals and plants who are entangled by my nerve bundle and incorporated into the same neural network, sharing perception, can also seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and thrive.
"Under my guidance, a thriving semi-independent ecosystem is gradually taking shape.
"The spiritual plants within the scope of my perception have clear boundaries between their root systems and branches, and they will never rob each other of sunlight and nutrition.
"Little animals have also learned to cooperate with plants. They will accumulate the carrion and excrement they do not eat under the roots of the trees and in the humus, so that the flowers and trees can grow more luxuriantly. They can get rich food and food without any effort. Comfortable nest.
"When powerful predatory monsters invade my territory, I can also direct the small animals to unite and contend with each other, and my nerves take the opportunity to invade the other side's brain, and let these vicious monsters give up predation. Thoughts, even join'Minecraft'.
"As my world becomes more and more prosperous, more animals and plants are attracted to me and become one with me.
"It's like my eyes, ears, and tentacles are getting more and more, and I can perceive the whole world more clearly from more angles and scales.
"And as the brains of monsters I can connect with increase, my...wisdom and self-awareness have also increased exponentially.
"Gradually, besides the practical problems of'what to eat and drink, how to get more sunlight, how to find underground water sources and spar veins, how to avoid large monsters' and other practical problems, the deepest part of my neural network, There will always be some shining sparks, which is deep confusion and dissatisfaction.
"You know, for me at the time, survival was no longer a problem.
"Even the most powerful monster in the Mist Hidden Territory knows how powerful I am.
"They are either hesitating whether to cooperate with me and include the same neural network, or they are keeping a distance from me and dare not set foot in my world easily.
"By sharing the senses, I also learned many interesting things, and the vastness and wonder of the world around me.
"I can feel the expectation that every flower is budding; I can also feel the joy of worms coming out of the cocoon and dancing lightly; every bunch of buds coming out of the ground can remind me of my first I feel the wonderful taste of life every time; every jackal, tiger and leopard running and jumping between the mountains and the wild, they try their best to contract the heart, so that the hot blood rushes to every muscle end, that kind of arbitrary and wild, It is deeply rooted in the earth with plants, and it takes thousands of years to experience the vicissitudes of life, which is completely different but equally wonderful.
"I can enjoy so many wonderful things that can't be described with pen and ink at the same time, like living 10,000 times at the same time, I should have been satisfied.
"But the nature of life may be insatiable.
"Gradually, I started to feel dull, boring, and empty.
"This sprout is no different from that sprout breaking through the soil; no matter how many insects break their cocoons and become butterflies, they will dance along the same track; jackals, tigers and leopards hunt in the mountains and forests. Snakes, insects, rats and ants ran in front of them. The same scene was staged once to ten times, and I could still watch it with gusto, but one hundred, one thousand and ten thousand times, I was exhausted and bored.
"I started to think.
"Although I didn't know I was thinking at the time.
"I just complained instinctively-this? This is everything? This is the purpose of my birth? To create a better jungle? But a jungle with me and a jungle without me, apart from being more luxuriant, seems to be no different Besides, even if the jungle is a hundred times more prosperous, one thousand times, ten thousand times, what about, is there anything new that I haven't seen, heard, or experienced?
"Especially in every silent, starry night, when the shining galaxy slowly unfolds above my head, leading all the way to the depths of the universe that I can’t see. This vast and mysterious picture always makes me Feeling some kind of...unexplainable impulse.
"I tried to extend the nerve bundle straight toward the sky, wanting to grow all the way to the sky, using my nerves to connect billions of stars, forming a huge and unfriended neural network among the stars.
"Of course, I failed.
"After failing ten thousand times, I gradually began to realize the vastness of Xinghai and the smallness of the land where I took root.
"For a while, I was extremely frustrated and angry.
"Why, the sea of ​​stars is so vast, but I can only be tied to this little mud pill, mixed with some stupid animals and plants, no, I am the aggregation of these stupid animals and plants, I am them The sad prisoner in the carbon-based body bound to a small mud pill!
"However, no matter how angry I am, the starry sky won't drop by half a foot.
"The incompetence was furious for a long time, and I calmed down again, thinking about how to touch the starry sky.
"I realized that even if my body is a hundred, thousand, or ten thousand times larger, it is impossible to touch the stars in the sky and draw their energy.
"No, even the sun close at hand, and even the little mud with countless spar veins under my feet, can't perfectly absorb all their energy with my own body.
"I must construct an organizational system that is more complex, sophisticated, and advanced than the jungle.
"This system is even bigger and more sophisticated billions of times than my neural network.
"After a long time, I realized that what I needed was... a civilization."
When the tree of wisdom uttered the word "civilization", all the tentacles all over his body trembled gently, exuding a charming brilliance.
Meng Chaodu shivered deeply.
"It seems that you have realized it."
The face of the the tree of wisdom continued to smile sweetly, "It is Taoyuan Town that inspired me to create civilization, a human town that has passed through the earth.
"In fact, across the sea of ​​stars, crossing to Taoyuan Town from another world, not far from my original birthplace, both are near the Tiankeng.
"I even wondered whether the space and psychic ripples that you crossed over, the surging energy that spread out, stimulated my awakening.
"In that case, the so-called'Monster Civilization' and'Dragon City Civilization' are really two sides of the same coin, fateful twins?
"However, at the beginning, I did not discover the existence of Taoyuan Town.
"On the one hand, my own perception distance and strength are quite limited; on the other hand, the original Taoyuan town happened to be stuck in a space fold area. The town was surrounded by mist, and the people inside couldn’t get out. My nerves The network is also difficult to spread in.
"But as the stormy waves set off by the crossing gradually subsided, the folds were smoothed, the fog around Taoyuan Town disappeared, and more and more contacts were made with the outside world, and a lot of materials and information were exchanged.
"The scope of my perception and control is also expanding, and the two sides keep getting closer. Finally, I discovered Taoyuan Town and the interesting little things like'humans'."
