It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

Lu Yongchang: "..."

He gasped lightly, raised his hand and gently rubbed between his brows.

The amount of information is a bit heavy, and he needs to take a break.

"That is to say, you have domesticated this giant tree with one hand of sweet dates and one hand of big stick?"

"It's not domestication..." Mao Zhengzhi obviously lacked the confidence to speak, "I think it should be a cooperative relationship."

Lu Yongchang: "..."

What is your partnership like? !

"All right, let's treat it as a cooperative relationship."

Lu Yongchang only felt pain in his brain. He never expected that after he and a group of academicians "retreat" to study black hole data for five years, the biology laboratory would bring him such a big "surprise"!

"What were we talking about just now..."

"Yes, yes!"

Lu Yongchang turned around suddenly, turned his head to look in the direction of the transparent aluminum curtain wall: "Then what's the situation with this giant tree?"

"Why does it also master these...well, these skills?"

"You tamed it like this?"

"No!" Meng Lu was the first to deny it.

Mao Zhengzhi also nodded again and again and said: "Professor, don't worry, we have absolutely not carried out any domestication-like behavior on this giant tree."

"That……"

Looking at the peacefully coexisting tree roots and scientific research robots, Lu Yongchang's eyes widened suddenly, and an astonishing guess slowly emerged from the bottom of his heart.

"There is still some connection between it and the giant tree of the Lost Star?!"

Chapter 623 Dangerous Creatures

Lu Yongchang subconsciously took two steps back, looking in horror at the giant tree left behind the transparent aluminum curtain wall.

"Do you know it's dangerous!"

He turned around abruptly, grabbed Mao Zhengzhi's sleeve fiercely, and shouted in a low voice: "That's an intelligent creature!"

"A living body with advanced intelligence!"

"If you don't know the details of the other party, let him live in our flagship rashly, do you know how much hidden danger this means!"

"Teacher, professor..." Meng Lu who was on the side was startled by Lu Yongchang's reaction, but she still opened her mouth to explain for Mao Zhengzhi, "Yes, I asked Academician Mao to do this."

"This is of great help to my deciphering work..."

"This is not an example!" Lu Yongchang slowed down his tone a little, "Academician Meng, you should not be aware of the crisis that the fleet encountered last time. It's not your fault."

"Remember, weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is!"

"Professor." Mao Zhengzhi also began to explain, "I have considered everything you said."

He pointed at the transparent aluminum curtain wall, and said in a low voice, "Three ship-borne laser cannons are installed in the biological laboratory."

"Once there is any change in it, Zero will control the laser cannon to destroy it immediately."

"Not only that, the entire laboratory adopts a modular design. Once an uncontrollable state occurs, it will directly separate from [Earth] and be bombarded by the antimatter cannon that has already been set up."

"In addition, in order to prevent information leakage, all instruments sent to the biological laboratory are encrypted."

"Not only that, even the probes sent to the Lost Star have been encrypted and equipped with a self-destruct device."

Hearing these words, the horror and anger in Lu Yongchang's eyes gradually dissipated. He took a deep breath and apologized softly: "Sorry, I was too excited just now."

"We don't know how high the opponent's intelligence and technological level are. In case this is its disguise, just like the [painting] at that time..."

"I can understand." Mao Zhengzhi interrupted Lu Yongchang with a smile, "It is precisely because of this that I have taken various security measures."

Lv Yongchang turned his head to look at the transparent aluminum curtain wall beside him, with deep fear in his eyes.

In such a short period of time, it has learned how to coexist harmoniously with human civilization. Moreover, even if there are no roots to connect with each other, even if it grows in an environment isolated from the outside world, it can still have a certain connection with the mother body...

At this moment, in Lu Yongchang's heart, no matter how docile these giant trees are, they are classified as dangerous creatures!

After a moment of silence, he slowly turned his head to look at Meng Lu.

"The deciphering has been successful, now try to communicate with it?"

Perhaps because she hadn't recovered from the conflict just now, Meng Lu subconsciously turned her head to look at Mao Zhengzhi beside her.

Seeing Meng Lu's eyes asking for help, Mao Zhengzhi touched his nose with a wry smile and said.

"Yes."

"There is some connection between the two, it's just speculation after all."

"We would like to take this opportunity to verify that through this small tree, we can remotely communicate with the giant tree on the Lost Star."

Lu Yongchang nodded lightly after pondering for a moment: "Let's start the experiment."

……

In the biological laboratory, scientific research robots carefully inserted electrodes and probes into the slowly twisting tree roots.

Because a lot of similar operations were done in the past, these tree roots didn't show much reaction to it.

"Academician Mo, let's begin."

After Mao Zhengzhi checked it again, he turned his head and said to Mo Zeyang who was beside him, "Get ready to start transmitting information."

Mo Zeyang nodded solemnly, and then carefully turned on the sophisticated instruments.

"Academician Meng."

He greeted softly.

Meng Lu responded, walked quickly to her place, and began to check the translation program that had already been compiled.

Lu Yongchang frowned slightly, carefully looking at the holographic projection in front of Meng Lu.

"Bioelectrical signal?" he murmured softly.

"Yes!" Mao Zhengzhi explained softly after finishing his work, "Professor, at the beginning, we didn't find a pattern in the bioelectrical signal."

"Instead, a relatively strong law was found in the quantum signal generated by the giant tree."

"That also creates a problem."

"We can intercept these quantum signals with instruments, but we lack the means to interfere with them."

Lu Yongchang nodded thoughtfully: "This is indeed a problem, how did you solve it later?"

"Good luck." Mao Zhengzhi said with a smile, "As the giant tree continues to mature, the bioelectrical signals gradually change from disorder to order."

"Of course, the specific reason for this phenomenon has not yet been clarified."

"However, thanks to this, we successfully found the correspondence between bioelectrical signals and quantum signals."

"This communication device is also based on this principle."

"Through the biological current, interfere with the quantum signal generated in a certain root system of the giant tree, so as to realize the communication with the giant tree."

After a moment of silence, Lu Yongchang spoke slowly.

"Do you think this looks like the learning stage of human beings?"

Mao Zhengzhi was slightly startled, and he quickly understood the meaning of Lu Yongchang's words: "You mean..."

"The quantum signal we discovered didn't come from this sapling?"

"Is it from the giant tree on the Lost Star?"

"What do you think?" Lv Yongchang cast his eyes on the transparent aluminum curtain wall again, stared at the rough tree trunk, and said in a low voice, "Do you think it is possible for it to master a mature language system immediately when it grows alone in a closed environment? "

"If this is the case, then the potential of this race will be immeasurable!"

Mao Zhengzhi's face changed slightly, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, what you said makes sense..."

"The bioelectrical signal is generated spontaneously by the saplings. Because they are just born and have not mastered the corresponding skills, they will appear extremely messy."

"The quantum signal is transmitted by the giant tree. The complete language system is naturally regular..."

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, frowned, and clicked lightly: "No, it's not right!"

"According to our guess, these [-]-meter-high small trees should have no individual consciousness, they are just branches of giant trees."

"But now..."

Lu Yongchang glanced at Mao Zhengzhi: "You're on the edge of a dead end."

"What if this small tree can grow into a [-]-meter giant tree after being separated from the mother body?"

"What if...they all have individual consciousness?"

"Including what I said just now, they are all speculations that have not been verified, and no one can say for sure."

"Everything depends on the results of the next experiment."

Chapter 624 [Hello, this is human civilization. 】

"professor."

Meng Lu finished the final inspection and reminded softly: "The experiment is about to start."

Lu Yongchang hurriedly withdrew his gaze from staring at the giant tree, focused his attention on the holographic projection in front of Meng Lu, and then nodded slightly.

Meng Lu looked serious, and said in a slightly cold tone, "The first giant tree communication experiment starts now!"

"Prepare to release bioelectric signals!"

"The release of bioelectrical signals is normal!" A scientific researcher responded loudly, "The rejection reaction of the tree roots is relatively weak, and the experiment continues!"

"Start to adjust the frequency of the bioelectric signal, and output the first greeting."

As she spoke, Meng Lu raised her hand and flicked across the holographic projection in front of her, and entered a line of text into the left side of the translation program.

With the support of zero computing power, at almost the same time, the first greeting message sent by humans was converted into a corresponding bioelectrical signal, which was input into the giant tree located in the biology laboratory through a series of electrodes. Among the roots.

[Hello, this is human civilization. 】

next second.

"Oh!"

A dull sound came from the direction of the biology laboratory.

Lu Yongchang hurriedly turned his head to look in the direction of the transparent aluminum curtain wall.

I saw a thick tree root slamming against the wall of the biology laboratory.

Seeing that fierce movement, Lu Yongchang's eyes instantly became serious.

With a slight movement of his fingers, he called up the control system of the biology laboratory.

next moment.

The arc-shaped dome of the biology laboratory cracked slowly, and three huge shipboard laser cannons protruded from it, and the huge muzzles pointed at the giant tree in an abnormal state far below.

With just one command, these three laser cannons can turn the biological laboratory into an ultra-high temperature hell on earth.

As for the giant tree among them, according to previous experience, the only possibility is to be reduced to ashes!

"professor!"

Meng Lu hurriedly stopped Lu Yongchang's behavior: "Wait! Give it a little more time!"

Lu Yongchang looked at the crazy appearance of the giant tree inside the transparent aluminum curtain wall, frowned and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"

"Why did it suddenly have such a big reaction?"

Mao Zhengzhi also said, "Professor."

"This is the first time we have input compiled bioelectrical signals into giant tree roots."

"Since these signals are directly acting on the roots of the tree, these responses of the giant tree are within our expectations."

"Huh?" Lu Yongchang asked with some confusion, "What's the reason? Why does the input of compiled bioelectrical signals lead to such a reaction?"

Mao Zhengzhi pondered for a moment, then said with some hesitation: "This..."
