Chapter 165 Neutron Life Form

  The short life span of neutron life forms is incomprehensible to human beings, and the time spent in fishing is the length of their lifetime.

  Even the life of a mayfly is a long life in comparison.

   Is that the case, or is a consciousness capable of thinking born?

  Blue Star once defined life as an open system with energy metabolism function, response to stimulation and reproduction.

But with the acquisition of more cosmic observation data, the definition of life has changed. There are too many intelligent races that do not need energy metabolism and reproduction. There are such examples before, and human beings can only reduce the definition of life to [Can respond to stimuli].

  The neutron life form that can already feed back information in front of us seems to have the characteristics of life.

  It’s just the experts of base zero, still a little unbelievable looking at the miracle of life science in front of them.

   Planetary life forms at least have traces to follow. The consciousness is mounted on the magnetic field to form a thinking circuit, and at least it has a taste of mechanical life.

  But the neutron life form seems magical.

  First of all, it is the carrier of life—neutron, its mass is extremely small, only slightly larger than that of proton, and its spin is 1/2.

  Secondly, free neutrons are unstable particles that can decay into protons through weak effects, releasing an electron and an antineutrino, with an average lifespan of 896 seconds. The existence time is extremely short. For ordinary living organisms, it may be possible for all tissues to replace their carriers within one metabolism.

  Then neutrons obey the Fermi-Dirac distribution and the Pauli Exclusion Principle. In the past, the neutron was listed as a member of the elementary particle, but now under the standard model theory, it is composed of two down quarks and one up quark, so it is a composite particle.

  Even if they exist in a neutron star in an aggregated state, rapid decay is still a curse of life that they cannot break. They should decay rapidly in ignorance, without even realizing the chance of death, they disappeared into the universe, as if they had never been born.

In real time, these neutron life forms have no history, and they may not even remember clearly what happened three days ago, but they have indeed condensed their consciousness, and they can even preliminarily control this pulse line to release the broadcasting station carrying information .

  They are not life born based on the magnetic field of neutron stars, and they can have such abilities and the universal language of the universe by no means relying on their own comprehension.

The neutron life forms were ignorant at first, and they used a pulsar with a diameter of ten kilometers as their parent star. to survive.

   And because their existing form is small enough, this neutron star is already a huge territory for them.

   This kind of time lasted for a long time. It is impossible to track down how many generations these neutron life forms have changed from ignorance to clear self-knowledge.

  But the moment they complete their self-knowledge, they have mastered the technology at the atomic level. From the perspective of the microscopic environment, neutron life forms are born here, and the atomic level is like a fish in water for them.

  However, on the pulsar, the extreme environment inside makes the technology at the atomic level seem to have no effect, and the neutron life forms can only live on it in an ordinary way.

  Perhaps an unstable reaction in a pulsar can make these neutron life forms disappear in the universe.

   But they were lucky enough to meet a passing civilization. From this passing civilization, they learned about the big universe, technology, the starry sky, and the continuously frozen matter in the universe.

  It is said that after looking at the world, you will know how small you are and how narrow you are.

  These neutron life forms obtained some planetary-level civilization technology from passing civilizations, and they began to try to transform pulsars, but the products of planetary-level technology are destined to have no effect in extreme environments.

  They can only start transformation from themselves, the first is to create an instrument that can observe the big universe through the space-time distorted by strong gravitation.

   It took more than 700,000 generations of neutron life forms before they finally saw this icy universe.

  Even if the temperature of the companion nebula is still maintained at more than 10,000 degrees, it is still fatally cold to them.

   In fact, this universe is not friendly to them.

  If it was one billion years before the big bang, the overall temperature of the big universe at that time was their comfortable environment.

  Neutron lifeforms that were born in the wrong era don't have any thoughts of giving up on themselves, because complaining for one more minute will cause extinction harm to the continuation of the entire race.

  Only with optimism and persistence, they survived to the moment when they mastered technology.

  Although the technology they mastered didn't make their situation much better, at least the whole group had a goal to fight for.

  They're going to create ice on a pulsar.

   Such ice cubes are not the kind of ice cubes where water condenses into ice, because there cannot be water molecules on pulsars, because even atomic nuclei here will be directly destroyed by gravity.

  The [ice cube] that the neutron life body wants to manufacture refers to freezing the material mainly composed of neutrons on the pulsar.

  Judging from the technology established by neutron life forms, the frozen state can allow their life to continue, breaking the curse of rapid decay.

   This is not different from the ancient emperors who sought immortality.

  This is no different from the intelligent beings in other big universes who desire to continue their lives.

  The only thing that is jaw-dropping is…..creating such [ice cubes] on a pulsar!

This is not as simple as freezing them to absolute zero quickly. The extreme environment on pulsars can’t even support the technological creations of star-level civilizations. They want to create absolute zero in an instant in a high-temperature, high-pressure, and high-gravity environment. .

   It might be easier and more practical to use spatial technology from the start.

   Then the problem comes.

  I want to make [ice cubes]!

   Then you go to master space technology!

  I master the [ice cube] technology, so that the ethnic group can have the opportunity to develop space technology!

  If you want to master the [Ice Cube] technology, you must first master the space technology!

  An unsolvable cycle is the deadlock of civilization that the neutron lifeforms face. The civilizations passing by don’t know whether they have insufficient civilization levels or are unwilling.

   Restrictions, restrictions cannot be broken through.

  Develop, but fail to develop.

  The passing civilization gave some help and then left here. After that, the technology of the neutron life form group stagnated.

   Or judging from their iterative speed, it would be great to be able to maintain technology.

   Such deadlocks abound in the records of the Union of Conscious Life Forms, and there is never a shortage of suffering civilizations in the great universe.

  However, suffering is suffering. Suffering will not create a brilliant civilization, but it will be destroyed if it cannot survive.

  I don’t know which generation of neutron lifeforms finally decided to give up the complete technology tree, and began to adjust the mother star with the greatest ability of the group to start with the part of the technology they mastered.

   Turn pulsars into eye-catching cosmic broadcasts, asking for help from well-meaning civilizations across the universe!

   Begging.

   No dignity.

  This kind of concept is meaningless in the cognition of neutron life forms. They just want to live longer, and live longer, preferably as long as the [ice cube] in the frozen state.

   This is the story of neutron lifeforms.

   Lu Yu was very moved after listening to it, and then he planned to return to the star field of the folding space.

  Ten moves but refused.

   Roughly so.

  From the brief communication, the Silver Star is probably the first civilization to come here to communicate with them after they sent out the broadcast.

   Think about it, too, except for a guy like Lu Yu who has mastered the black technology of space jumping, he would be bored to come here to see the situation.

  Other civilizations consume massive amounts of energy during interstellar voyages all the time. If the purpose of voyage cannot be achieved, it is not as simple as personal honor being damaged. I am afraid that the entire civilization process will be blocked.

   What's more... On an extreme celestial body like a pulsar, no matter how curious life is, it must consider whether to go to a strange life body hundreds or thousands of light years away while keeping its own life.

  And this is not something that ordinary planetary-level or star-level civilizations can help with. Space technology... is the ladder leading to river system-level civilizations.

  At the beginning, the Alliance of Conscious Life Forms was willing to give space technology only if its members had to be honest workers for a long time.

  According to the broadcast of this neutron life body... It is clear that they want to get it for nothing, just like the passing civilization back then, who gave them a whole set of planetary-level technology for nothing.

  White X!

   Being able to obtain space technology for nothing, of course, is delicious, the fragrance is extremely fragrant.

  How could such a beautiful dream not smell good?

  But it can only exist in dreams, no civilization will give up the space technology that it has worked so hard to accumulate and break through to other civilizations for no reason.

  The civilization that created the folding space is not good enough to be such a big wronged species!

  Therefore, the begging behavior of neutron life forms is doomed to bankruptcy from the very beginning.

  Lu Yu is not a devil either. Although he always [does good deeds] in the big universe with the name of the Horn Race, he is still an amiable Blue Star person after all.

   Feeling extremely sad for the plight of the group of neutron life forms, and then after satisfying the curiosity, I am ready to take the lovely No. 7 to get wet.

   Do you think my Horn Race is a Space Madonna?

  That's right, Lu Yu's intention to use the name of the Horn Clan this time has already set the tone, although it is not known whether these neutron life forms will remember the arrival of the Silver Star after a few hours.

Perhaps because the Silver Star has not responded for a long time, the neutron life body that has already iterated twice without knowing it hastily sent a new signal: "You guys... There is no way to create [ice ice on our home star. block]?"

"No."

   This is a cold and realistic answer.

  Lu Yu really doesn't have the technology to create the so-called "ice cubes" on pulsars. In Lu Yu's cognition, such engineering can at least reach the river system level civilization.

  One cubic centimeter of matter on a neutron star has a mass of more than 100 million tons, or even 1 billion tons.

  If there is no intuitive concept, then a simple analogy—at normal temperature and pressure, the density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter, and the density of neutron stars is 100 trillion times the density of water.

  The average radius of the earth is 6371 kilometers. If the earth is crushed into a neutron star, the radius of the earth will become 22 meters.

   Due to the extremely high density, a large amount of mass is gathered in a very limited space, and the gravitational field on the surface of the neutron star is extremely strong. The escape velocity on the surface is as high as 100,000 to 150,000 kilometers per second. If a rocket is launched from the surface of a neutron star, the speed must be greater than 1/3 to 1/2 of the speed of light. However, any object that falls on the surface of a neutron star will be shredded. Such a strong gravitational force makes the light passing near the neutron star follow a parabolic trajectory.

   The only time Lu Yu heard about the fact that he wanted to complete operations with diametrically opposite characteristics under such extreme conditions was when he first received the A-level mission [Freeze Supernova] released by the black technology system.

  If you use the system, it is not impossible.

   But Lu Yu is still saving points to repair the Silver Star, how could it be wasted for neutron life forms?

   "Can it point us to a direction and a possibility?"

   "Perhaps we once got it from enlightenment civilization, but... in order to make a sound, we iterated too much and forgot a lot, so we can only ask you."

  The begging behavior of these neutron life forms did not arouse Lu Yu's resentment.

  When civilization is facing extinction, any dignity is meaningless.

   After thinking about it, Lu Yu asked No. 7 to send the grand unified theory to these neutron life forms.

  It is the foundation of a star-level civilization, and it is very likely to be the first key to unlock space technology.

  【Grand unified theory +80%, get 300 points reward points. 】

  【Anti-physics foundation +70%, get 200 points reward points. 】

  【...Get 150 bonus points. 】

   The moment No. 7 completed the transmission, Lu Yu immediately saw a pop-up prompt from the black technology system in front of him.

  ? ? ?

what's going on?

  Has human technology suddenly exploded?

   Or did the ultra life forms collectively realize their epiphanies?

  The sudden crazy increase in points stunned Lu Yuren. Although the points added to the end gradually decreased, as if they were constantly decreasing, they couldn't hold back the speed of the increase.

  In the blink of an eye, Lu Yu inexplicably gained nearly 800 points.

   Soon, Lu Yu understood.

   This accident happened after No. 7 imparted technology to these neutron life forms.

   "That's right! These neutron lifeforms don't even have organs, structures, and even some life foundations that they should have. They can't be measured at the learning speed of normal lifeforms."

   "But this speed is too terrifying. Only after the Grand Unification Theory was transmitted to them, these neutron life forms have almost deduced most of the technology trees of star-level civilizations by themselves."

   "Maybe it is because of such a learning speed and such a thinking circuit that these neutron-carrier lives can be born?"

   While Lu Yu was still amazed, the neutron life body said: "We seem to understand more things, thank you for your unknown civilization! It's a pity that you are leaving..."

   "You're welcome, I'm Lu Yu, a human being!"

  Lu Yu seriously interrupted the neutron life form and said: "For all the civilizations in the universe that are suffering, I am willing to give my humble strength!"

   "I'm not leaving! Stay here to help you make [ice cubes]!"
