Three-body: The Most Competent Wallfacer in History

```

It wasn't just self-healing; after the formation of the grey-black shell, the wounded area suddenly started to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, until a new "strip of fabric" had grown out.

Jiang Yu immediately ordered, "Stop the dissection."

This thing is definitely not as simple as an alien civilization's probe.

The Wallfacer Office quickly summoned numerous experts from the Academy of Sciences for support.

After more than an hour of discussion and argument, the experts reached two conclusions.

The current dean of the Academy of Sciences, Li Zihui, reported to Jiang Yu, Wei Xiang, and other Wallfacers, "Some professors believe this is a type of bionic machinery.

"Similar to the neuron computers we have developed, it makes use of bionics technology.

"We also attempted to develop bionic machinery, but the results were poor, and it was difficult to adapt to the outer space environment, so research in this area stopped hundreds of years ago.

"However, this structure codenamed 'Curtain' perfectly fits our concept of bionic machinery.

"It can work in extreme environments, does not emit electronic or quantum signals, and is therefore difficult to be observed by enemies. Most importantly, it can regenerate."

Xiao Qi in the channel followed up on this topic, "It reminds me of a previous hypothesis that humans are a form of advanced bionic robots.

"Humans can grow, maintain themselves, and when parts become obsolete, it affects the intake of energy, ultimately forcing a permanent shutdown."

Jiang Yu nodded, this hypothesis had emerged during the era when the Solar System was being rebuilt.

Many believed that humanity was indeed an intelligent life form deployed by a more advanced civilization that had established the Solar System earlier on Earth.

The emergence of human-like intelligence led more and more people to accept this hypothesis.

Traditional intelligent robots are mainly metallic structures.

Is it possible that in the eyes of some advanced civilization, humans are intelligent robots made of flesh and blood? Robots built up of muscle tissues!

After all, no one has stipulated that intelligent robots must be metallic; just the self-healing aspect alone makes a biological intelligent life form more powerful than a robotic one.

Moreover, humans can reproduce themselves, and "production" in ancient times referred to giving birth. Isn't that a hint left in language?

Does it suggest that humans can complete their own 'production,' expanding their population?

If such an advanced civilization really existed, then wouldn't they 'harvest' a batch of humans on Earth after hundreds of thousands of years without having to do anything?

It was based on this hypothesis that for a while, the bionic technology of the Solar System State was highly sought after.

But after several centuries, when bionic technology encountered insurmountable technological barriers, people began to point out the flaws in this hypothesis.

First off, even if advanced civilizations had no concept of the passage of time, and even if they initially sent a hundred people to Earth, they could 'harvest' ten billion humans after several hundred thousand years, which is a yield of one hundred million times.

But still, it's not cost-effective; at the current stage of human civilization, the energy issue is very trivial.

The amount of dark matter stored on a warship is enough to power it for over a thousand years, and the warship is also equipped with devices to collect dark matter.

The energy structure of an advanced civilization should be more developed than humanity's, so would they really need the energy and resources to produce clones? Is there a need to 'cultivate' humans across the universe?

The second obvious flaw is, if humans really are intelligent robots, wouldn't such a precise piece of technology just be dispersed carelessly, without any fear of this high-tech product being learned by other civilizations?

```

The Solar System State wouldn't even throw mechanical prosthetics into the Solar System; taking apart an abandoned Space City was too much trouble, so they'd just blast it with a dark matter cannon and reduce it to dust in an instant.

Did other civilizations not possess this awareness?

Thus, this hypothesis gradually vanished into the long river of history, and only "old folks" like Jiang Yu and Xiao Qi had heard of it.

Li Zihui continued, "Some professors believe that it is a type of Second Era life form.

"A long time ago, we obtained information from the No. 7 Bacterium, which suggested that Second Era life forms could survive in the space environment.

"Later, Wallfacer Jiang Yu proposed a classic hypothesis, suggesting that the plants that accompany humans day and night are the degenerated products of Second Era life forms in Earth's environment.

"So in the vast universe, could there be many Second Era life forms living within the space environment?"

Jiang Yu recalled the incident with the No. 7 Bacterium; it indeed happened a long time ago.

"The second guess is more reliable," Jiang Yu shared his opinion, "Plants have regenerative abilities, and the 'Curtain' also has the capability to regenerate, which is quite similar."

He let out a sigh, "Call more biologists into the team, if this really is a Second Era life form, it's a rare biological specimen!"

Then Jiang Yu ordered the Second Corps, "Don't slack off on your end either. Right now, we don't know if this is a single Second Era life form or a group of them.

"Mobilize more forces to search this ancient battlefield; even if we don't find the Singer civilization, discovering a group of Second Era life forms would be a tremendous achievement.

"We may gain a closer understanding of the origins of three-dimensional life through their study."

This discovery sent the biologists of the Solar System State into a frenzy, just as Jiang Yu said, it was a rare biological specimen.

It filled a large void in human biology; after all, the Second Era life forms had only been mentioned by other civilizations or in everyone's hypotheses, and now they finally encountered a living specimen.

Everyone thought the event had concluded, only to receive news five days later that the "Curtain" had actually "escaped."

In fact, on the second day after capturing the "Curtain," some staff noticed something was amiss.

The temperature inside the small laboratory consistently hovered around zero degrees and did not rise.

Normally, such a lab in a sealed environment would reach about ten degrees Celsius, and the temperature would only be higher or lower if the experiment required it.

But strangely, the temperature inside the laboratory stayed at zero and no longer increased.

At first, the researchers thought the equipment was malfunctioning and didn't take it too seriously.

It wasn't until the fourth day, when the small laboratory was brought back aboard the mothership, that the researchers realized something was wrong.

The shell of the "Curtain" had noticeably softened, its speed was increasing, and the temperature inside the laboratory was still around zero degrees.

Some professors speculated whether the "Curtain" inside the laboratory was "devouring" all the heat?

This conjecture was somewhat far-fetched. Generally, the process of biological heat absorption occurs when the temperature reaches ten degrees Celsius, because everything around becomes warm, and so does the organism.

No one had ever heard of an organism that could precisely absorb all heat above zero degrees within a small area.

It was only after multiple checks of the laboratory's air conditioning system turned up nothing, and the "Curtain" violently "escaped" on the fifth day, that the researchers discovered that the heat had indeed been absorbed and accumulated by it!
