Homo sapiens

The first year of Xinghe is September 27th.

Li Qingye arrived at the loyal Atron Oasis City.

Su Qixi, who was in charge of the secret project, took Li Qingye to the design studio and introduced him to the designers and engineers present.

Li Qingye also encouraged them.

"Chairman, this is the design drawing of Pangu Project." Su Qiesi said while controlling the holographic projection equipment to project the design model.

The average altitude of the northern Darfur Plateau is about 600 to 700 meters.

This underground cavity area with a diameter of 100 kilometers requires an internal cavity height of 500 meters. With various structural layers, protective layers, barrier layers, etc., the overall thickness should be about 600 meters.

"In order to ensure that the upper layer has more than 200 meters of stratigraphic coverage, we plan to dig downward, probably to an altitude of minus 150 meters, as the foundation of this base."

While Li Qingye listened, he looked through the detailed information on each system designed by Su Qiesi's team.

This project is called "Pangu Project".

As the name suggests, the reason why Li Qingye promoted this project was to create an independent ecosystem, and then put in various genetically recombinant organisms to conduct ecological simulation tests.

Why build such a huge base specifically for testing genetically recombinant organisms?

Can't ordinary biological laboratories test it?

The answer is no.

Ordinary biological laboratories are limited by space and safety, and there is no way to comprehensively test various situations of genetically recombinant organisms in the natural environment.

But Li Qingye couldn't just put genetically recombinant organisms into the natural environment casually.

There were certain risks in the previous plastic fungi, but it was Li Qingye who specially took action and inserted various restriction genes to prevent it from turning into a devastating disaster.

Therefore, Li Qingye now urgently needs a large independent ecosystem laboratory to test various genetically recombinant organisms.

He wanted to use environmental pressure and a relatively complete ecosystem to see whether various organisms recombined with genes could break through the limitations of genes and evolve unique new life forms.

This is the origin of Pangu Project.

Li Qingye is heading towards the realm of the Creator.

The current evolution speed of human beings is too slow, and the body has become the biggest limitation for human beings to move towards the stars.

Some time ago, in the pseudo-gravity experiment on the Homo sapiens space station, although pseudo-gravity equivalent to 1G was successfully created, the gradient force difference generated by centrifugal force still made astronauts uncomfortable.

In order to solve the difference in centrifugal force gradient, the next step of the Homo sapiens space station is to plan to increase the radius of the space station from 200 meters to 500 meters or even 1,000 meters to test the influence of centrifugal force gradient.

All this is because the human body is so poor.

Without a way to enhance the human body, the idea of ​​human civilization developing living space in outer space is just a beautiful but fragile soap bubble.

To step out of the comfort zone of their home planet and move toward a harsher starry sky, humans need a stronger and more comprehensive body.

What's more, the Pangu Project is not just for human beings to adapt to outer space. It has a deeper purpose. In fact, it also contains Li Qingye's selfish intention-that is, to further extend the length of life.

If possible, he would also like to see the vast starry sky outside the solar system.

The Pangu Project entrusts many of Li Qingye’s thoughts and expectations.

Therefore, he has no hesitation in building such a huge artificial ecosystem, but plans to go all out to promote it.

He looked through the contents of the security system. Li Qingye attached great importance to the security system of this base. No matter whether it was external defense or internal defense, there was no room for sloppiness.

Because in the future, the Pangu Project will invest a large number of genetically recombinant organisms into this artificial ecosystem, and there will definitely be many extremely dangerous organisms among them.

Without a good safety system, if the creatures inside are leaked, it will be a huge ecological disaster.

This is also the reason why the Pangu Project will be constructed in the northern part of the Darfur Plateau.

Because the northern part of the Darfur Plateau is surrounded by desert and Gobi Desert.

In a place like this, Li Qingye dared to add a hydrogen bomb as the final self-destruction device. Once the entire base was out of control, the self-destruction device could completely purify the entire base.

To this end, Li Qingye also specifically asked the nuclear factory to produce a batch of 1,000-ton hydrogen bombs. These hydrogen bombs will be densely deployed in all directions of the Pangu Project, completely blocking the possibility of internal leakage of biological experiments.

After all, he was doing it for scientific research, not for self-destruction.

Li Qingye raised his head: "Security measures are not enough. For example, those pipelines connecting Pangu Realm have huge security risks. It is best to keep only one external channel for Pangu Realm and cancel other channels first."

"Mr. Chairman, if you do this, it will cause problems with the internal water circulation and heat circulation." Kraft, the safety engineering designer, looked a little embarrassed.

Li Qingye waved his hand: "Then add an internal water circulation auxiliary system so that the heat circulation can be non-contact."

As if aware of the firmness in Li Qingye's words, Kraft could only nod his head: "Okay! I will adjust the design plan as soon as possible."

"In addition, the only passage must be specially designed to ensure that it is foolproof."

After more than half an hour of communication, Li Qingye and a group of designers and engineers revised the details several times before finalizing a preliminary plan.

Including the previously undetermined internal planning of Pangu Realm, the first draft was also completed.

Pangea will be divided into five regions, with Buzhou Mountain in the middle, Canghai in the east, Qingqiu in the west, rainforest in the south, and wilderness in the north.

These five regions each represent five relatively independent small ecological circles, and at the same time they influence each other.

In this area of ​​nearly 10,000 square kilometers, a large number of genetically modified organisms will be put into the future, and these organisms will compete with the native organisms that already exist.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

He very much looked forward to the birth of some brand new creatures in the Pangu world.

The real significance of this seemingly blind-box experiment lies in the infinite possibilities of life.

Human genetic technology can already accurately customize some organisms, but at this stage there is still no way to "evolve human genes."

Be it transgenic technology, gene editing technology, or gene recombination technology, they all indeed make use of genes that already exist in nature.

True evolution is not about piecing together genes, but rather allowing genes to naturally mutate according to environmental pressure.

However, natural mutation is too difficult, but in the mutation process, 90% of mutations are harmful.

This is the meaning of the existence of Pangu Project.

In this process, Li Qingye can force some genetically recombinant organisms to mutate crazily through various environmental pressures and other organisms in the ecosystem.

As long as there are enough mutations, some valuable new genes will always be mutated.

Perhaps the hope of mankind heading towards the stars, or of immortality, is hidden in those base pairs.

Li Qingye even planned to use the wood-building factor that had never been used to create some more powerful genetically recombinant organisms and put them into the Pangu world.

He believes that life has infinite possibilities, and the key to human evolution must be that there is no way to achieve earth-shaking changes through known genes.

Now he was going to find the key.
