Chapter 47 Gaia Consciousness Hypothesis

 As the "Mushroom Monster" took out the terrifying glass bottle, the bird bombers not only did not disperse, but flew higher and screamed more fiercely.

"Ga! Ga!"

"Wow!"

If he could kill people with his roar, Zhang Ming might have died a hundred times.

Of course, the egg is just an egg after all, not a real hatched bird. In addition, for the sake of sustainable development, Zhang Ming will not take out all of them at once, but will always leave a few in their nests.
p>

So the "bombers" lingered for a day or two and found that there was no effect, so they stopped and went back to hatch eggs.

.

.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, leaden clouds unconsciously blocked the sun, and cold rain fell from the sky, soaking the clothes.

The weather has not been very good recently, with few sunny days and mostly rainy days, but Zhang Ming's mood is like chewing Xuanmai gum, unable to stop at all, and every move is full of energy.

"Another great harvest day!"

Zhang Ming secretly guessed that the rainy season for this island was coming soon.

He didn't want to go out in the heavy rain to look for food.

Quicken your pace and rush back to your tin house.

Carefully take out the eggs from your backpack and put them into a large suitcase.

"One, two, three..."

The box contains a box of sawdust and colorful bird eggs!

"Thirty-five, thirty-six..."

Zhang Ming enjoyed his own unique happiness, and the smile on his face became stronger.

Even if he knows exactly how many eggs there are, who can refuse the joy of a good harvest?

"A total of 101! Breaking through 100!"

The food reserves are unprecedentedly abundant. In addition to the two conventional foods of dried crab meat and coconut meat, there are also bird eggs, making the ingredients even more abundant.

Oh, and with the addition of mushrooms, the speed of attribute improvement soars!

"Eating three bird eggs a day can last for more than a month."

"After a month, maybe they will be able to lay new eggs... Well, sustainable development is the best."

Then he had new troubles, because there are many types of bird eggs. In addition to seagulls, there are also puffins, egrets, albatrosses, and some seabirds that he doesn't know much about.

These eggs bring new abilities.

New superpowers require more attribute points to be activated...

This is a vicious circle!

“What should I do if there are too many superpowers and not enough attribute points?”

Lying on the chair, Zhang Ming was thinking tangledly.

……

……

……

Earth.

"Comrades, good morning everyone."

"The mysterious area on No. 16 may have entered the rainy season, which will be a major test for Zhang Ming's future survival."

At the morning meeting on the new day, Li Xianfeng rubbed his temples and clicked a few times to transmit the latest mirage image to the big screen.

The scene was gray and drizzling, so it was hard to see clearly.

Many experts discussed: "I don't think it will be a big problem in a short period of time. He has stored enough food and plenty of firewood. We have reminded him of these on the radio."

"It's best not to go out in the rain during the rainy season. Even if he is strong, what if he gets sick and has a fever?"

Li Xianfeng shook his head and said: "It's not a matter of whether the problem is big or not. Our Comrade Xiao Zhang is not only alive, but he is also digging out bird eggs with great interest. In what way did he scare the birds on the island?"

"He even used leaves to write some words on the beach. We imagined him too simply. There are many things that we no longer need to remind us."

Take a screenshot of one of the images and enlarge it.

Among them, a line of text covered with leaves on the beach reads: "Salted duck eggs."

What does it mean?

Of course, I asked them to broadcast how to make salted duck eggs on the radio!

Many experts were silent and looked at each other speechlessly. This guy spends his days on an isolated island eating and drinking, and now he is having fun with his life. People who don’t know think he is on vacation in the tropical rainforest!

Fortunately, they racked their brains and worked hard, fearing that this guy would suddenly die suddenly. It felt like the emperor was not as anxious as the eunuchs.

Of course, there are two other lines of text on the beach, which have attracted the attention of scholars.

"Please teach me the principles and production methods of Faraday cage."

"If there are indigenous people, come quickly!"

The amount of information in these two lines of text is a bit large, making the expert team a little suspicious of life.

"Why does he need the manufacturing principle of the Faraday Cage? Is he afraid of being struck by lightning? Or is there a monster that shoots lightning on the island?" Li Xianfeng asked with a frown.

Faraday cage, a device for protecting high-voltage electricity.

The cage is connected to the earth. When high-voltage electricity hits the metal cage, the strong current will be introduced underground, but the humans hiding in the cage will remain unscathed.

This physical phenomenon has many applications in voltage protection, direct lightning protection, and even in the field of magic.

For example, David Blaine wore a 12.2-kilogram metal armor and challenged a million-volt electric shock, using this principle.

But what does Zhang Ming need the specific principles of the Faraday cage for?

As for the line "There are indigenous people", the amount of information is even greater. The expert team can't even determine whether this sentence is true and reliable, or whether it is an exaggeration.

To be honest, Zhang Ming's actions these days are a bit sneaky, and Mirage has no way of tracking them.

Everyone was a little worried about his mental state, so they specially extended the broadcast time from the original half hour to the current one hour.

The knowledge of wilderness survival was taught over and over again, telling him to wait where he was and learn from Master De in building a shelter, instead of running around like Master Bei.

But...it's useless!

After a moment of silence, Li Xianfeng cleared his throat and said with some helplessness: "He wants the knowledge of the Faraday cage, satisfy him as much as possible, and send it via satellite broadcast."

"As for the news about the indigenous people, it is not impossible, but we... are really helpless!"

"Even if there really is an indigenous civilization on that island, what can we do? We don't even know where the others are..."

.

Regarding matters related to the possible existence of intelligent civilization in the mysterious zone, we have discussed many times in private.

The stunning glimpse of the artificial satellite outlines a vast, profound and vast parallel world.

The area of ​​the mysterious area is much larger than the earth.

It may even be a thousand or ten thousand times that of the earth!

Quantitative changes bring about qualitative changes. It is not surprising that another intelligent civilization was born in such a huge ocean area.

"Please sort out the information Zhang Ming wants and send it in the afternoon." Li Xianfeng added: "Comrades, there are two things we need to discuss next."

"The first is about the rescue plan for survivors in the mysterious zone. This is also one of the few international cooperations in modern times."

"Academician Ge, please briefly introduce the satellite data analyzed in recent days."

Although the artificial satellite sent a few days ago only worked for a dozen seconds, the radio wave data obtained in a short period of time can already analyze some basic contents.

The gray-haired Academician Ge held a thick stack of information and said tiredly with two dark circles on his face: "The first conclusion is that the satellite received the long-wave communication sent by international collaborators. It means the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean

, the four mysterious areas of the Indian Ocean and the Arctic Ocean are essentially connected and are the same world."

"We can think that the mysterious area is a huge and vast parallel world."

"The earth we currently live on is 'embedded' into this huge parallel world through some unknown form."

"The Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, and Arctic Ocean are actually the entrances to the mysterious zone."

A young doctor raised his hand and said: "You mean, the earth we are on is becoming part of the mysterious zone?"

"Yes, as you all know, it is easy to lose your way after entering the mysterious area. If you do not communicate with the inside and outside through ropes, it will be difficult to find the direction of the earth even if you are close at hand."

Academician Ge said calmly: "This is a special space phenomenon. With our current scientific and technological system, we are currently unable to understand this space phenomenon."

"If we use some idealistic explanation: the earth is deliberately avoiding the fate of being assimilated into the mysterious zone. It is hiding itself to avoid the risks in the mysterious zone."

"As Westerners say, God protects mankind, otherwise the end of the world would have happened long ago."

"Of course, we do not believe in the existence of God. We more agree that there is an existence similar to Gaia's consciousness, which has given us a little help in this catastrophe."

Gaia Consciousness!

Li Xianfeng couldn't help but straighten his back.

The proposal of the Gaia hypothesis is a major research hotspot in the current supernatural discipline.

This hypothesis believes that the appearance of mirages is an instinctive self-rescue behavior of the earth's "Gaia consciousness".

Just like when the human body is sick, it will spontaneously activate the immune system; now that the earth may be "swallowed" by the mysterious zone, it will have a strong tendency to save itself.

This hypothesis further infers that the outbreak of disasters in major regions is the resonance of human group consciousness.

"Gaia consciousness", as the collective consciousness of the earth, is connected with everything in the world, ranging from fungal and bacterial spores to forests, grasslands, lakes and the sea.

But it is undeniable that the biggest variable is actually human beings.

When a certain group in the mirage is wiped out, the entire human group will spontaneously have the view that "this race is not suitable to survive in the apocalypse".

This view is so strong that it resonates with the group, thus affecting the "Gaia consciousness" and causing huge disasters in the region.

In other words, it was human beings' spontaneous group consciousness that allowed Gaia to destroy the country, not the so-called "God's punishment".

This hypothesis is actually quite metaphysical, and some evidence chains still need to be collected, and there are also many disputes between believers and non-believers.

But no matter what, it can be regarded as a logically complete explanation.

The so-called "science" is like this. It does not exclude the emergence of unknown phenomena, nor is it a rigid framework. When unknown phenomena occur, scientists will try to establish a more complete system to include the unknown phenomena and explain them.

.

After chatting for a long time, Academician Ge realized that he had gone too far. He coughed slightly and brought back the topic: "Let us push the time back to more than a month ago. The outbreak of global earthquakes was essentially the earth's

Mosaic' caused a global shock after entering the mysterious zone."

"On the boundary between the earth plane and the mysterious zone, space undergoes a large displacement, so those unfortunate people may be 'teleported' to far away places by accident."

"This kind of long-distance spatial displacement only occurs at that moment. Now that we have entered the mysterious zone, this kind of spatial displacement will no longer occur."

Li Xianfeng nodded slightly.

Academician Ge continued: "Based on the above hypothesis, my country's previously launched artificial satellites monitored two electromagnetic wave signals."

"The first is the large cruise ship of Mirage No. 1, which carries 3,000 passengers. It is about 12,000 kilometers southwest. The signal source is very simple, SOS sent by radio."

"The second is the Arctic Ocean team, in the northeast, 17,000 kilometers away. The signal source is very simple, Mayday sent by radio."

"The above two data are not completely accurate. At least two satellites are needed to achieve more accurate positioning. However, the overall credibility is still high."

This news is really exciting. Two of the three teams that entered the finals were actually found by a satellite!

There are indeed some citizens among them who are from Daxia!

As long as you know the approximate location of these two teams, there is a possibility of rescue!

There was a buzzing discussion in the room.

"Are the energy reserves on their ships enough to span more than 10,000 kilometers?"

"It's impossible. They are short of energy and don't have much food. So we have to send warships and planes to meet them."

"So, this is one of the few international joint efforts."

Spending a lot of manpower and material resources to rescue the international team is not a manifestation of the Holy Mother's heart.

On the one hand, it is indeed to reduce the occurrence of geographical disasters.

On the other hand, being able to create a more relaxed diplomatic environment is a diplomatic bargaining chip.

Due to the drastic deterioration of the living environment, the cloud of war hangs over human civilization.

Some areas are already at war.

The earth can no longer support such a large population. Who will die and who will survive? Who is friends with whom and who is the enemy?

These issues must be thought through clearly.

In a world with turbulent undercurrents and a downward spiral of human civilization, every country is greatly expanding its military. Yesterday is always better than today, and tomorrow is always worse than today. Even big countries must be cautious and step by step to avoid being hunted by wolves.

Possibly.

Li Xianfeng is even somewhat fortunate that he lives in a big country with strong industrial capabilities, and his work is relatively academic-oriented, a little away from the cunning and intrigue politics.

There are many things that are really exhausting.

After everyone finished discussing, Li Xianfeng spoke again: "Everyone, in addition to rescuing survivors, there is a second task. We need to deploy a large scientific research base near the junction of the Pacific Ocean and the mysterious zone."<

/p>

"The training plan and research plan for superpowers will be officially launched within a month!"

About one-tenth of the humans who enter the mysterious zone have activated superpowers. This number makes the upper management very excited!

This cost is much cheaper than eating monster meat. Mutated creatures are still rare on the earth.

Even though most abilities are physical abilities, who would refuse better physical fitness, more talents, or even... a higher lifespan?
