Chapter 422: Creating Concept Objects
Zhou Yi called the Minister of Electricity You Ai.

"I need 150... no, 148 electric cats. They need to work for me individually for a long time. How long will it take for you to get all the cats for me?"

The Minister of Mechanical and Electrical replied: "Chairman, we have enough B-class electric cats now, but we still need a lot of A-class electric cats."

"A-level working electricians are all paired with electric drivers to provide core power grid support in various regions, and there is still a large gap at present."

Xiaofu said: "It doesn't matter, B-level is also fine. The important thing now is to establish the Spark Civilization first, and the subsequent reinforcement is the same."

After Zhou Yi gave the order, the Ministry of Electric Power dispatched 148 Shining Group electric cats.

Under the guidance of Pikachu, the electric cat instructor, they merged into Zhou Yi's shoulders one by one.

As the number of cat head tattoos increased, they were suddenly connected to the original Shining 17 and Shining 18. They were all reduced to silver dots and combined into a square electronic icon, like some kind of QR code.

The silver dots on the icon moved slowly on the skin, making irregular movements due to collisions with each other.

But these activities are confined to the box of the icon.

Zhou Yi clearly sensed that the electric cats were these points. They were touching and communicating with each other, and the dynamic graphics on the skin of the shoulders were the embodiment of their current state.

"Do you feel it? Da Zhou, the sparks of the electric cats are now interacting and reorganizing."

"Give them some time. It takes a little time for civilization to develop."

Xiaofu gave technical guidance: "At this time, do not intervene or interfere with external forces. Let them connect and gather naturally, so that civilization can become vital and diverse. Imposing directional influences will cause their upper limit to become lower, and they will have a tendency to rebel and resist."

Zhou Yi asked: "Should I give them some light seeds now?"

"Need not."

Soon Zhou Yi noticed that the area of the electric cat on his shoulder began to get hot.

The small silver dot formed by the electric cat has experienced serious conflicts and confrontations within it. It is colliding fiercely, and clear dividing lines have appeared locally.

He was a little surprised: "I remember the Shining Group was mild and timid, but they would actually fight on such a large scale."

"Of course."

The upstreamer said: "As long as the number of people increases, there will be differences and conflicts within a life group, but these conflicts are also the beginning of change."

“If there were no conflicts and contradictions, it would become a stagnant pool, and the diverse movement of life would stagnate. Just like the cavemen, even without external threats, they would die out over time.”

Zhou Yi thought of human history.

A long period of stability will cause the people of a region to stagnate. Many ancient countries in history fell behind other places because of this, and eventually turned into dust in wars and natural disasters.

On the contrary, it is the regions that have to constantly deal with natural and man-made disasters that have nurtured resilient and strong nations.

Electric cats will eventually separate after being together for a long time, and will eventually come together after being separated for a long time.

The whole group would be at loggerheads at one moment and then be brothers at another. After the fight they would make peace and then go on to the next round.

Zhou Yi could clearly sense these changes.

When there is an internal fight, the skin on the shoulders will continue to burn and feel hot, and may even produce a sharp, tingling sensation that spreads throughout the body.

When they have a good relationship with each other, people will feel tingling and comfortable, as if a master masseur is taking care of them, and the whole body will feel relaxed.

The whole process lasted two and a half days.

Then the abnormality on the shoulder disappeared.

Zhou Yi saw it at this time.

The memory cores of the electric cats are closely connected, and 150 memory cores form a transparent glass building.

Each room is a memory core, in which lives the consciousness of a cat. They live in this building and can visit each other and interact with each other.

The nuclear power building built by these electric cats is still growing and extending outward.

Some large glass tube-shaped memory cores were gradually being constructed on the top of the building, but these memory cores were empty. The electric cats moved the black and white consciousness keys from their own memory cores and worked together to build the interior.

Zhou Yi looked down quietly.

The electric cats wrapped the consciousness keys with electric arcs one by one, connecting them together and building bridges and roads in the memory core.

This is not an easy job, as the consciousness keys will naturally float and move. The electric cats work together, some hold down one side of the consciousness key, and some connect them, assembling the mortise and tenon structure with the consciousness keys one by one, so that the whole will tend to be stable.

After building a basic platform, they assembled and extended the consciousness keys step by step.

The movement speed of consciousness is much faster than that of matter. The movements of the electric cats seem to be madly accelerated and as fast as lightning.

Zhou Yi asked Xiaofu: "The top layer they are building is the public consciousness area?"

"Yes. The source of the concept of civilization is individual life. It needs these individuals to build and form. After it is formed, it will continue to evolve because of the changes in the ideas of the individuals."

"Da Zhou, all we can do now is observe and not interfere."

The tracers passed on their experience: "Every combination and establishment of a fire civilization is a new sprout."

"This is going better than expected. I thought it would take longer. I built a Spark Civilization myself before, which took more than ten years. Energy life is indeed blessed by nature... The most advantageous thing is that this group has grown in intelligence and cognition after being trained and guided by the company."

"Before the concept is born."

"Da Zhou, you have two choices now."

Xiaofu said: "The first option is to maintain the purity of the electric cat group, and the Fire Seed civilization is built entirely on electric cats."

"The advantage is that they are from the same group, the concept is predictable, and it is 100% consistent with electric cats."

"The disadvantage is that there are fewer changes. Whatever electric cats are afraid of, conceptual objects are also afraid of."

"The second option is to mix in a minority group. With electric cats as the main body, adding iron iron, for example, will increase their diversity and their abilities can be shared." "The advantage of this is that it is more diverse, and the conceptual objects born are more unique and rare."

“The disadvantage is that different groups need to work together, but the results are uncontrollable. It may produce a good concept or a very useless concept.”

"These two directions must be determined from the beginning. Once determined, the concept object will have its own initial form. If it is just electric cats, other groups cannot be mixed in later. If other life forms are mixed in, subsequent expansion will also require regular additions of minority groups."

Zhou Yi fell into deep thought.

His initial idea was to focus on stability, after all, this was his first contact with the Fire Civilization.

Let’s make a concept product of electric cat and see what happens.

but.

As this thought came to his mind, the experiences of the cave people emerged.

As powerful as the cavemen were, they created a powerful civilization and technology, but they also fell into crisis because of their overly single life race.

Although I don’t know if Fire Life has a similar dilemma.

Zhou Yi finally decided to take the diversity route!
Draw a card.

“I decided to incorporate the Maiba, Iron Iron, and Rockcore tribes.”

“Does conceptual life also need to be integrated?”

The tracer reminded: "They are very precious, they are natural concept objects, and they are also the cornerstones of civilization. Once they are integrated into the Fire Seed Civilization, it is equivalent to consuming its characteristics, and it will be impossible to give birth to a civilization of your own... unless you dismantle the Fire Seed Civilization in the future."

"Consumption characteristics?"

Zhou Yi frowned: "Are you saying that its BGM ability will disappear?"

"That's not what I mean. If it integrates into the Spark civilization, it will become a part of that civilization, and will be connected and bound to the electric cats."

Xiaofu explained: "It was originally possible to turn the Mic King into an independent civilization. For example, we could build a Fire Seed civilization and use music as a power for a large number of compatible lives. The more of them there are, the stronger the Mic King will be."

Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then it's okay.

The future is a matter of the future.

For me, one Spark Civilization is enough. I can't chew too much, and a bird in the hand is worse than a hundred in the bush. Multi-line micro-management is not my area of expertise.

Zhou Yi first sought the opinions of Tietie, Maiba and the Rock Core Tribe, and told them the mechanism of the Fire Civilization.

"Can I live and chat with a lot of cats? I want to go!"

Tietie, who was the former human experimental subject, said: "I want to join! It's too lonely to be alone! It's better to have some fun! Let's have some fun together!"

Mai Ba said: "The meaning of music is to share and spread. I hope to join and spread my music!"

T is concise and to the point: "Order received."

All three are willing.

Zhou Yi then connected their memory core to the Dianmao Building.

The channel between the memory cores was suddenly opened.

Zhou Yi saw that the young woman Tietie walked along the consciousness key stairs and entered the public area on the top floor of the building. Although her eyes were closed and her ears could not hear, there were no physiological limitations in the memory core, and any consciousness could exchange information with each other.

She soon became familiar with an electric cat, which liked to squat on her head and turned into a cat-head hat woven with electric arcs.

Tietie smiled happily, with his hands open, and walked briskly on the consciousness key steps.

The microphone master also connected seamlessly. The electric cats surrounded the BGM warrior in the shape of a player, with notes popping out of their heads, twisting arcs to the rhythm of the music, and seemed to like this rhythm very much.

The white stone ball of the Rock Core Clan seemed a bit out of place at first, but it soon gained high recognition from the electric cats because its [panoramic reading] ability pointed out the correct direction for the electric cats and eliminated failed routes.

It has become the most popular pointing guru.

Fusion is not as difficult as Xiaofu said.

Another day passed.

The public memory core area on top of the Electric Cat Building was finally completed and turned into a large oval memory core. It was filled with double helix consciousness key structures, like a complex version of a roller coaster track built in.

The ladders of consciousness eventually converge at the middle hub, which is also the source and starting point of public consciousness.

A ball of white light emerged from its mortise and tenon structure.

"That's the one."

"The concept has taken shape!"

Xiaofu said happily: "Da Zhou, if you move it from the memory core to the material side, you can see its true appearance and activate its projection here."

Zhou Yi was also excited.

This is a conceptual object that I cultivated myself, and I wonder what it will be like.

He immersed himself in the public consciousness area and reached out to touch the ball of white light.

A thought came to my mind.

Zhou Yi opened his eyes and saw a black card in his hand.
