How the Zergs were Made

Two years before Huo Gu's time...

"Professor Huo! Come and see, there is a major discovery!"

A member of the archaeological team waved to Huo Gu in surprise.

Huo Gu's cannon went over.

"What's the matter?"

"Look! This is a bone tool! Four million years ago, the southern apes actually knew how to polish bone tools!"

The archaeologist's face was full of excitement.

At present, the earliest southern ancient ape found in the archaeological community to make simple tools is a female southern ancient ape called ' Lucy Girl' three million years ago.

This four-million-year-old bone discovery will certainly refresh the record of the ancient apes in the archaeological world!

"It seems that there will be another big earthquake in the archaeological world..."

"Sure enough, this trip is not in vain..."

Other archaeological team members are also excited and talked about it. As a member of the archaeological team, the reputation brought by the new discovery must be shared with every archaeological team member.

"For the safest, let's do an age test on this bone device. Don't make mistakes and make a joke."

Huo Gu was more rational and was not overwhelmed by this discovery.

The main reason is that he is not sure whether this bone device is the southern ape's own or later addition. Some of the tombs will remain in the tombs that do not conform to the times. This is not that those things have crossed, but the objects that the tomb robbers fell into the tomb.

"Okay!"

At night, the archaeologists celebrated because of the discovery of the southern apes. Although the age test results have not yet come out, they have subjectively believed that they have made a major discovery.

Of course, it is not ruled out that you want to take the opportunity to relax. After all, archaeological work is very energy-consuming and boring...

Huo Gu noticed that the team members who found bone tools during the day did not gather with everyone, but sat on the darker side and looked at the stars in the sky from time to time.

"Lin Feng, why don't you get together with everyone?"

Huo Gu went to Lin Feng's side and sat down.

"Professor, I'm thinking about something."

"Astronomy?"

Seeing Lin Feng's behavior just now, Huo Gu subconsciously thought so.

Lin Feng shook his head, "No, I'm thinking, if the southern apes crossed time and space to modern times, what do they think of us Homo sapiens today?"

"I don't think they will regard us as the same kind, and although we divide the Australopi as apes into human beings, if a southern apes really emerges, no one will treat it as a real human, and maybe they will be locked in the zoo..."

... 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶

Once upon a time, Huo Gu never thought that he would face such a problem.

Looking at the underground creature struggling in the restrained position, who is dark and feeds on plant roots and can only faintly see the human shadow.

Can he really be regarded as a human being?

Huo Gu doesn't know what others think, but it is unacceptable.

For it, human civilization has become extinct.

It's not because of disaster or war, it's just because of simple living, the limit of existence, and death.

[Huo Gu, don't be depressed. Human beings are still there. Even if you don't agree that these human creatures that have lost their high intelligence are human beings, and there are still branches of human colonization in the universe, their intelligence is still there, and the level of civilization is very high.]

Huo Gu shook his head, knowing that saying this must not be aimless.

Humans on Earth colonized outward and fought interstellar battles across stars. Although they are not as good as Amoeba, they cannot be said to have achieved higher achievements. After all, they have surpassed human beings on earth.

But...

Can those civilizations really be regarded as the 'human civilization' in Huo Gu's view?

"Ming, thank you for comforting me like this."

"But what you said is meaningless."

[It doesn't make sense? Why? Human beings are still continuing.]

Driving the old human body, Huo Gu walked on the grassland, and the yellow grass gradually pushed away and stepped out a road. His bleak back made people feel desolate.

"If there is a civilization that has experienced hundreds of millions of years, the genes of the main intelligent species are very different from hundreds of millions of years ago, and their culture, biological habits, cognitive methods, etc. are different from hundreds of millions of years ago."

"Moreover, they do not believe that the main intelligent species in the past are the same species as the current ones, which can only be regarded as genetic relatives, and even rely on technological biological transformation of the whole race, abandoning the original body as an artificial body, not even genetic close relatives, and cut off the correlation of the same kind from the physical level. ."

"Do you think this civilization is still the original civilization? Or did it evolve into another alien civilization over time?

Huo Gu's problem made me fall into deep meditation.

All the problems are just one - if that civilization has become completely changed, is it still the same civilization?

[You want to say that even if you colonize the universe and maintain intelligence, even higher than the intelligence of the past, it is not considered human in your eyes?]

"Yes, it can't be called 'human' from a material or informational level. For them, the human race can only be said to be a history that once existed."

Min was not satisfied with Huo Gu's answer, and he asked.

[What about Amoeba? In your opinion, is Amoeba no longer Amoeba?

"Is 'Amoeba' still the same 'Amoeba'? You should know the answer better than me.

[...]

Huo Gu's counter-question made me hover in mid-air, stunned for a long time and didn't know how to answer.

As Hogu said, Amoeba is no longer the same Amoeba it used to be. The only thing that has not changed is those intelligent individuals.

The supreme will is no longer the supreme will, and the collector is no longer the collector. The past is over.

...

"Si, why did you stop me? If the will wants the original human civilization, then we will give it the original human civilization! Not to mention the original human civilization, the original earth, the original solar system, the original Milky Way, all can!"

Yes, with the power of Amoeba today, it can completely capture all the particles scattered in the solar system in 100 million years, and then restore the sun to its state and position 100 million years ago. The solar system and even the Milky Way can return to 100 million years ago.

They are like gods, holding infinite hands, and how can they reverse everything?

"Sustaining, this is meaningless. Won't the recovered human beings make progress? Everything is just starting from scratch, and the 'human civilization' that the will agrees with will will inevitably lead to destruction.

What's the point of doing all this?

Let the will face the destruction of human civilization again?

"Well, then we will let them not make progress, always stay like that, castration..."

The perpetual remitment, was interrupted by Si's anger.

"Shut up! Are you surprising your will? Do you think such a will will be happy? What you do will only make your will angry! Make it sad! If you dare to do this, I will be the first to destroy you!"

"...You're right. I was wrong."

...

In a flash, millions of years later, the cosmic creatures of Amoeba have completed their preparations for a voyage across the universe.

"Let's go! March beyond the universe!"

Under Huo Gu's order, these cosmic creatures lying on the outer membrane of the universe started to the boundless and vast new world one after another!
