Looking at the menu in front of him, Zhang Tie was in a daze. He hadn't flipped through this last menu for more than a year. Except for the first time he obtained the Black Iron Castle, he took a cursory look at this menu. Finally,
In addition to almost giving him a heart shock, this menu has been sleeping since he started in Black Flame City to this moment.
Zhang Tie still vaguely remembered that this menu allowed the small tree to actively generate the "special seeds and fruits" that required a large amount of basic energy reserves. The merit value and aura value used to be astronomical figures to him.
Could it be that at this moment, I can already make some special seeds and fruits in this menu grow?
Zhang Tie asked this question.
"The wealth accumulated by the Black Iron Castle can already allow the small tree to generate a few special seeds!" Heller replied affirmatively. "Why don't you, Lord of the castle, open it yourself and take a look?"
Of course Zhang Tie knew the wealth that Heller was referring to, which was actually the basic data of the Black Iron Castle. Zhang Tie pressed his hand from the air, and a brand new picture appeared in front of him and Heller.
This picture is the same as what Zhang Tie saw when he opened this menu for the first time. It is full of rotating three-dimensional patterns of various strange-shaped seeds and fruits and text introductions below the patterns. The only difference from the first time is that,
This time, a few of those patterns are already in a brightly activated state.
Heller pointed at one of the activated seeds. Zhang Tie made a move, and the three-dimensional pattern of the seed suddenly became larger and appeared more clearly in front of the two people.
——The seeds of the flower of life
——Required aura value: 530000
——Basic energy reserve required: 1,358,000
——Required merit value: 90000
——The planting area required for the first-level Flower of Life: 40 bows each in length and width.
——This is the flower of mystery, and it is also a taboo flower in the mouth of some races, because it understands and deciphers the basis and mystery of the existence of life. It only needs one cell that still has life activity, and the flower of life can clone the same.
life.
The amount of spiritual energy, basic energy reserves and merit points required for this so-called flower of life seed is simply beyond Zhang Tie's expectation. Zhang Tie recognizes all the words in these words, but when combined
At the same time, Zhang Tie was a little confused.
"What is cloning?" Zhang Tie asked Heller.
"The so-called cloning simply means copying life!"
"Copy life?" Zhang Tie was severely shocked by this answer.
"Yes, it is 100% replicating the body of a living being. If you have a sufficient understanding of the development of human science and technology before the catastrophe, then you know that before the catastrophe, humans had already mastered the technology of cloning life. This
It is one of the most cutting-edge technologies in the field of living matter that humans have mastered.”
"What does taboo mean?"
"With just a drop of your blood, the Flower of Life can clone a person who looks exactly like you, and all the external characteristics and genes of the body are exactly the same as you. So what do you mean when that person stands with you at the same time?
For our parents, who is Zhang Tie?"
"Of course I am Zhang Tie!"
"You are Zhang Tie, so who is that person exactly like you? In terms of blood, that person is not only from you, but also from your parents!"
Heller's question stopped Zhang Tie.
"So, from a human perspective, this technology will have a huge psychological impact. Therefore, this technology has become a taboo in the human world from the day it came out, and it has a negative impact on many races and species in the universe.
In terms of life, it is indeed unacceptable to accept such a thing!"
"Wait a minute, you mean there are many other races and beings who don't find this incomprehensible. Don't they regard this kind of thing as a taboo?" Zhang Tie sensitively grasped Heller's words.
Another meaning in .
"The reason why this technology has become taboo is that different races and beings have different understandings of the essence of life. If you think that your life and yourself are your body composed of various material elements and flesh and blood, then
, this is indeed the biggest taboo, but if you regard your body as a piece of clothing, a tool that allows you to exist in the material world, do you still think it is a taboo? Do you think that those on the street and
Is it taboo for you to wear clothes of the same brand, same style, same color, and same size?" Heller said meaningfully.
"So you mean it's nothing?"
"I said, it all depends on your understanding of life. If this body is you, then do you feel that there is an essential difference between those who are physically disabled and you, or do you just think that when you see them?
The clothes are accidentally torn, and they don’t look as good as you. Essentially, they are still the same as you. If this body is you, then who is the person who has experienced life and death in the Soul Tribulation Fruit, or does it just exist completely in the world?
The fantasies and conscious activities in your mind?”
Heller looked seriously at Zhang Tie, who was frowning slightly and thinking, "You don't have to worry about this issue. Everything in the Black Iron Castle exists for you. You are the absolute ruler here, so here
Things do not need to change and distort your worldview to adapt to it, they will adapt to you, they will be whatever you think they should be! If you find them difficult for you to accept, you don’t have to choose them.
If you think this is similar to a garment workshop, then they are a garment workshop!"
Zhang Tie thought for a while and then laughed. What a bullshit taboo. He had no intention of using this thing to do anything strange. Why would he want to think about it so much? It was only right to consider something more realistic.
"That's why you asked me to bring in a piece of the flesh of the deep sea monster?"
"Yes, that kind of powerful mutant creature is very valuable. If you can afford the corresponding price, as long as you have the Flower of Life, you can continuously create creatures like the Deep Sea Monster in the Black Iron Castle.
!”
"I don't think creatures like the Deep Sea Monster are very powerful! That Star-Moon Sword Master was killed in a few minutes as soon as he took action. And what do I want with these disgusting-looking things?" Zhang Tieqi
He curled his lips and said.
"According to my analysis of the piece of flesh and blood you brought back, the raped deep-sea monster is just in its youth and has not yet fully grown up. The development and growth potential of this creature are very huge. If it is a
The adult Kraken is at least twice as big as the one you saw, and it will not be killed so easily. The adult Kraken is the most powerful in the ocean.
One of the overlords, and more importantly, because the creatures cloned in the Black Iron Castle are able to live by consuming the resources you provide them, their existence is inextricably linked to you.
Contact, so these cloned creatures are naturally very close to you and will treat you as their natural master!"
"You mean I can keep these things copied by the Flower of Life as pets?"
"As long as you are willing, they will definitely be 10,000 times more obedient than pets!" Heller said with certainty.
Zhang Tie's heart suddenly jumped up and down. Heller's words had a strange magic power. Zhang Tie looked at the flower of life seed in front of him and felt a little moved when he suddenly thought of another question.
.
"You just said that human technology had mastered cloning technology before the catastrophe. So, is this Flower of Life a product of human technology?"
Heller laughed, "In addition to humans, there are tens of millions of various lives and species in the universe. The flower of life is one of these creatures. Humans once dreamed of conquering the world through technology. Do you think so?"
I have thought about it, there are other races and lives in this universe, they can conquer everything by planting various plants underground. The instincts of those plants have all the functions they need, and those functions are better than what humans can create with technology.
The results are even more perfect. The goals that humans can achieve with painstaking efforts through technology are completely innate instincts for some creatures and races!"
"Such an instinct is too strange!"
"Fish are born to swim and dive. How many difficulties did humans go through to invent diving equipment that can go deep into the sea? Birds are born to fly. How long did it take for humans to invent aircraft? Controlling water and soil pollution was an important issue for human society until the catastrophe.
A scientific and technological issue, but many plants are naturally capable of purifying water and rejuvenating soil, which is hundreds of times more powerful than human technological civilization. Human beings have always dreamed of using sunlight to realize the dream of permanent human prosperity and survival, but in this issue all can perform photosynthesis
Plants can do this right from birth."
"When did humans master the use of electromagnetic signals to transmit information? And all the plants in a forest are born with the ability to use electromagnetic signals to spread the signals of invaders that threaten them to thousands of kilometers in an instant, making all plants
Plants of the same type all know it and respond accordingly. Do you think their instincts are strange? Do you think the technological civilization before the human cataclysm was really as powerful as you imagined? The instincts of living things are inherently strange. Since the characteristics of different plants
Instinct is inherently unattainable and incredible, so why can’t there be a plant in the universe whose instinct is to complete the replication and cloning of life?”
Heller's words made Zhang Tie rub his head. The butler of the Black Iron Castle not only has the looks that can put others to shame, but his eloquence and wisdom can also put others to shame when needed. Compared with Heller
, Zhang Tiecai found that his knowledge was exactly like that of a kindergarten child.
Wait, an idea flashed in Zhang Tie's mind, and he suddenly thought of something. It was a Chinese myth. In many Chinese myths and legends, many people and creatures were born from flowers.
Without passing through the mother's womb, aren't all those myths and legends completely false? Zhang Tie immediately told a few myths and legends he knew.
"Many of the myths and legends of mankind come from the inheritance of memories and knowledge from ancient times. Of course, there are also many that are completely fabricated based on the imagination of future generations. Based on the myths and legends you just mentioned, I can only tell you,
Some of the Chinese people living on this planet may have had a flower of life a long time ago!" Heller said to Zhang Tie seriously.
"What? Is there another Black Iron Castle?" Zhang Tie was slightly surprised.
"The Black Iron Castle is unique, but the Flower of Life is a member of a huge special plant race. Therefore, there must be more than one Flower of Life in this universe!"
"Then why can small trees bear seeds and fruits of the flower of life?"
"Because the Manjushahuabaoshu is the king of that huge and special plant race. This king has the life imprint of all the members of that huge and special plant race. When the conditions are ripe, the Manjushahuabaobao tree can bring all its members into the world."
It is its destiny and instinct to release the imprints of life it possesses. You can regard the Flower of Life as the subjects and subordinates of the king, the Manjussar Flower Tree!"
"So, the menu function of 'Special Seed and Fruit Generation of the Manjushahua Karma Ten Thousand Fruit Treasure Tree' is essentially the induction channel for the small tree to release the life imprint of that huge and special plant race?" Zhang Tie's eyes widened.
"You can think of it as a contract and agreement, an agreement that you bring them into this world through your own efforts and dedication, and they serve you through their own instincts. The most perfect and harmonious relationship in the universe is
It is based on this kind of mutually beneficial cooperation and dependence!" Heller admitted frankly.
"Then, this space, which is the Black Iron Castle, might have been a large botanical garden prepared for the various subjects brought by that little tree and the various strange flowers and plants from that strange plant race? And I am
A hard-working gardener who happened to be chosen to take care of this botanical garden?" Zhang Tie asked, pointing to his nose.
"I can't say that your understanding is wrong, because I myself am also an accessory and product of this space. I can only tell you that, just like what I just said, the most perfect and harmonious relationships in the universe are based on
On the basis of mutual benefit, cooperation and dependence, apart from this kind of relationship, there is no other relationship in which one party can decide the life and death interests of the other party at will, and one party can harm the other party at will without worrying about being harmed.
Damage, that kind of relationship where one party only pays but does not get anything in return goes against the most basic principles of the universe, so it is impossible to last and exist for a long time. This principle is applicable everywhere, especially in the field of human social life.
Various short-lived relationships that violate this principle can be seen everywhere, ranging from friends turning against each other, to regime changes, and changes in relations between countries!" After saying this, Heller asked Zhang Tie, "Don't you
You would think that the mysterious being who created everything in the Black Iron Castle didn’t even take such a simple thing into consideration when creating this place!”
Zhang Tie was speechless for a moment... (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
