4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

This is a thing... a long time ago.

In the legend, two Ershi people used to excavate rare minerals in a place called “Floating Mountain Mine” in the void.

They found a creature there, and in fact there is only this creature here.

This creature is called a cloth bag.

Bags are a kind of void creatures that wriggle like a bag-like body in the void, floating between the hollow mines and absorbing any nutrient debris that suits them.

At first, the bag was regarded as the unique 'landscape' here, but it was only used by the people of Ershi.

However, the two Ershi people found that the bag had a high intelligence in the close contact with these bags several times.

Although the appearance, ecology and other aspects are very different from the people of Ershi, they can quickly understand the behavior of Ershi people and will respond.

Later, after testing, the two Ershi people discovered that the intelligence of the bag reached the shock of the people... about 50.

This level has been able to communicate with Ershi people in a normal way. Of course, they have only made some simple interactions and have not had effective communication.

They don't know why bags are so simple but have so high intelligence, and they don't seem to have any intelligence in their daily lives.

They just float around and collect food, just like single-celled creatures.

Although I don't understand, obviously this is a very fun thing to do.

As a result, these bags have become more interesting things, and the two Ershi people often try to interact with them.

One day, two Ershi people mentioned whether it is possible for the cloth bag to develop civilization. The two of them have different opinions.

One thinks it is possible because the bag has a high intelligence and the other thinks it is impossible. After all, the bag has no key parts like a hand.

There are many high-intellectual mammals in the sea like Ershi, but because they don't have long hands and can't make fire in the water, there is no way to compare the speed of the primate... Some Ershi people have this view. .

The situation of the bags is similar, they live in the void.

This position is really unlikely to develop, but it may not be the same if you change the position... So, Ershimin brought some bags to a nearby world called a7-0931.

The environment there is suitable for cloth life, and the surface also contains a lot of nutrients that can be absorbed by the bag.

Although the bags can't fly because of gravity, their body structure will not collapse under the gravitational environment, and they can still move on the ground.

The cloth bags are actually not without the ability to grasp. The four corners of the body have a certain grip ability, and can be used... many of the tools of the Ershi people.

So the two peoples gave them some...the education about the development of civilization, but also gave them some technical information of the people and some machines that can protect them.

Then they threw the bag in the world and left.

Because there are many other things to do, the development of the bag, these two Ershi people did not observe.

But occasionally they will pay attention to see how they are going.

They found that the bags did develop slowly as they thought.

At some point, Ershi people suddenly discovered a new species in the bag group.

This new kind of bag grows a limb-like structure from the four corners of the body, and their body becomes stronger. They can better adapt to the gravitational environment and move quickly on the ground. Use tools.

It looks like the original bag has evolved.

But it’s only a short time...that is, a few years of time, how can they evolve?

The point is that this evolutionary type will reasonably live better than the original bag.

But this is not the case. The original bag is very ... discriminating against the emerging types.

Although the new species have superior capabilities, the original bags used them as lower-class species...so they quickly enslaved these new species and treated them as 'inferior people', forcing them to be the original bags. service.

Later, some new species escaped the control of the bags, and they went to some harsh environments to live.

The bag continues to grow like this.

Ershimin noticed an interesting thing, that is, the bag will produce some new types at regular intervals, and these new types are almost always suitable for the current situation.

When the bag is subjected to a large amount of technical research, there will be a higher level of intelligence, and when it is explored more, there will be a better type of physical fitness.

However, all of these types are considered to be 'deformed inferior species' by the original bag.

As long as these new species appear, they will be killed. At first, they will make some slaves, and all will be killed later, and one will not stay.

The people of Ershi do not know how they developed into such... but they have no way to manage it.

Because they are far apart, and because there are still a lot of things to do, the two Ershi people did not pay attention to the species that they had come out long ago.

It was a long time passed.

Because the two people recorded a lot of information about the bags, their information was seen by some people in the research group.

These people think that ... the bag has the value of utilization.

"Then they seem to want to start some kind of planning on the bag, it seems to be a test."

In the dark, dead tree jungle, an Ershimin said to the deputy captain: "But I don't know the details of the plan."

"So, are you saying that these creatures like pillows are those 'bags'?" asked the deputy captain.

“It’s very likely that I’ve seen some information that is quite similar to the information described, and their technology is similar to ours.”

"In this case, we should be able to use their technology very easily." The deputy captain looked at the several people who were investigating the aircraft next to him: "Is the investigation good?"

"Yes... this is very similar to our technology, but it has changed a bit in terms of operation, but I think we can adjust it to... and the engine of this thing is very powerful, it should allow us to fly back to the space station. position."

"Yes? Then their technology is...somewhat special." The deputy captain said: "Come on...be careful!"

There are countless aircraft suddenly appearing in the sky. They all seem to be all-bag aircraft, and they are all coming in this direction...
