How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 774 Probability Distribution

Survival is the first need of civilization—for a civilization, everything is meaningful only if it continues.

This is true for the Hui civilization, and it is true for those civilizations that existed longer than the Hui civilization, and even those that were born as early as the beginning of the Big Bang.

Because civilizations that are unwilling to follow the laws of survival have long been submerged in the long history of the universe, and the only thing that survives is the civilization that puts the survival of civilization first.

The technology of these civilizations can almost be regarded as comparable to the gods. Even the Hui civilization whose technology far surpasses the earth for an unknown number of years can only look up to them.

But they also have problems that they cannot solve, that is, they cannot completely avoid death, the death of civilization.

Just like life, life survives in the world, and the corresponding other side is death. On the premise of immeasurable time, life will die one day in the future. It cannot refuse death. The only thing it can do is to continuously extend itself impending death.

The same is true for civilization. One day in the future, for some reason, it will die out. This process may be sudden or gradual.

In order to avoid their own destruction, these ancient cosmic civilizations began to study the demise of civilizations. They believed that as long as they collected enough information about the demise of civilizations, they could avoid the factors that led to their demise in advance. Learn from other civilizations that have perished.

However, after collecting information in units of hundreds of millions of years, these ancient cosmic civilizations have discovered some situations. In a limited area, the number of civilizations will not exceed a certain threshold.

This threshold will vary from scale to scale, but the threshold is always there.

At first, none of the cosmic civilizations noticed this, because they believed that those civilizations that had perished were due to limited material resources or external factors.

Until some cosmic civilization felt that it was too troublesome to look for the dying civilizations in the universe, so they planned to designate a cultivation area by themselves, cultivate civilizations by themselves, and then obtain information related to the destruction of civilizations by waiting for the demise of these civilizations.

Just like John Calhoun who conducted the mouse utopia experiment on the earth, the cosmic civilization that intends to cultivate a large number of civilizations to collect information on the destruction of civilizations, noticed the existence of the threshold.

In order to collect information to the maximum extent, the more civilizations cultivated, the better. Therefore, the cosmic civilization has estimated the maximum number of civilizations in the cultivation area in advance, and the material resources will ensure absolute sufficiency.

However, the results of the cultivation were far from what they imagined. The rich material resources did not increase the number of civilizations cultivated much.

The plan of cosmic civilization is to directly transform all barren planets into ecological planets with complex ecological circles. As long as there is enough time, intelligent species will naturally be bred in ecological planets, and then intelligent species will build civilization.

In the end, the civilizations of the universe do not interfere in any way, and observe these civilizations going to perish naturally.

Cosmic civilization has carefully cultivated many planets with complex ecological circles, all celestial bodies in the cultivation area, solid and gaseous planets, plasma stars, even subatomic pulsars, white dwarfs that are star remnants, etc.

All of them have been transformed into planets with complex ecological circles by the civilization of the universe.

However, such a huge number of planets with complex ecological circles have not been able to breed a large number of intelligent species. After the number of intelligent species surges to a certain number, the rate of surge will begin to decline, just like the awakening of ordinary creatures. Difficulty rises generally.

Obviously, there are still so many planets with complex ecological circles that have not awakened wisdom, and it feels like some unknown force is suppressing the awakening of biological wisdom.

And even if some species awaken wisdom, they are still unable to build civilization for a long time.

In subsequent observations, the cosmic civilization discovered that after the destruction of some civilizations, species in complex ecological circles that have been unable to awaken wisdom for a long time will awaken wisdom by accident, and those intelligent species that have been unable to build civilization for a long time will be in Accidentally ignite the fire of civilization.

There seems to be no connection between them, but there seems to be a connection, and the number of civilizations and intelligent species has always been in a relatively stable state.

Until all the complex ecological circles in the cultivation area collapsed due to their own problems, the number of civilizations seemed to be suppressed by an invisible hand, and it no longer showed the momentum of the initial surge, and maintained a relatively flat trend. began to decline sharply.

In the end it was all destroyed.

This is completely different from what the cosmic civilization originally expected. According to their original conception, each planet in the entire cultivation area will give birth to an intelligent species, and the cultivation area will be crowded with civilizations built by intelligent species.

The cosmic civilization even thought of a compromise plan to prevent these civilizations from competing for resources because they are too close.

What exactly is it?

What force, or thing, is suppressing the number of civilizations?

What caused the end result to look like this?

The curiosity of the cosmic civilizations who tried to obtain information by cultivating civilizations was ignited, and they wanted to know why the current results were caused.

So, they conducted civilization experiments one after another in the cultivation area.

This cosmic civilization, which is more powerful than the technology of the Hui civilization, gives the civilization in the cultivation area rich material resources, a relatively safe environment, strong adaptability, and so on.

But it is still inevitable that civilizations will perish, and the process of demise is reasonable, some are due to some kind of super virus that occurs naturally, some are due to wars caused by certain social problems, and some are due to sudden nature that even the civilization of the universe has never noticed. Destroyed by disasters...

After the 19th civilization cultivation, the cosmic civilization terminated the civilization cultivation, because they encountered danger, a certain kind of naturally occurring information virus, passed through their information defense network that had been improved for an unknown number of generations, and spread virally. diffusion.

Although the cosmic civilization finally defeated the information virus at a great cost, it also completely wiped out the entire cultivation area with a diameter of 3,000 light-years from the universe.

Fortunately, the civilization of the universe is not without gains. They summed up the experimental results and came to the following conclusion—everything in the universe presents a probability distribution, and so does civilization.

Take a coin as an example, a coin has both sides, ignore the probability of standing up, toss the coin continuously, and then calculate the probability according to the number of times the front and back sides appear continuously, you will find that as the number of coin tosses increases, according to the positive The probability value calculated by the number of occurrences of both sides will continue to approach 1/2.

Then regard the universe as an object similar to a coin, with a constant probability value, that is to say, the more civilizations are naturally born, the greater the probability that the existing civilizations in the current universe will be destroyed!
