▶Species Name—Nuclear Fusion Reactor Organism

This silicon-based lifeform possesses high intelligence and the ability to maintain the stability of energy within fusion reactors. They can sustain fusion reactions of light elements within their bodies, generating significant energy, which is converted for their life activities. The elemental cycle of this organism primarily relies on the absorption of hydrogen, deuterium, and helium from the environment.

Biological Structure: The "brain" of the nuclear fusion reactor organism is composed of stable silicon crystals and an internal micro-fusion reactor. It has a complex neural network and fine reaction control mechanisms that can accurately sense and control the state of the fusion reactor, effectively preventing reaction runaway.

Biochemical Characteristics: The abnormal biochemical characteristics of the nuclear fusion reactor organism include its self-sustaining fusion reactions and the recycling of silicon and fluorine elements, achieving energy balance and the renewal and repair of silicon cells in the extreme environment of SL Silicon Star 2. Their bodies are primarily composed of silicon and other materials with very high resistance to high temperatures, such as tungsten and some high-temperature superconductors.

Biochemical Cycle: The nuclear fusion reactor organism utilizes the helium nuclei produced after nuclear fusion to capture the valence shell electrons of fluorine and silicon, thereby completing the material cycle. A portion of the helium is placed outside the system to maintain the balance of its internal reactions.

Physical and Geometric Characteristics: The nuclear fusion reactor organism has a sculptural silicon body structure, with limbs that can flexibly stretch, ensuring stability of the internal fusion reaction in changing environments. Their limbs have adsorption devices capable of moving across the surface and absorbing necessary substances. Furthermore, this lifeform possesses an internal cooling system that can effectively guide and release excess heat.

Survival Conditions: The nuclear fusion reactor organism needs to survive under various extreme conditions, such as the high-temperature and high-pressure environment of SL Silicon Star 2, primarily requiring sufficient hydrogen, deuterium, and silicon and fluorine elements for material cycling and cell renewal. Its self-fusion reaction characteristics mean they do not need external energy supply, but require abundant light elements as a material basis for reactions to maintain vitality.

Reproduction Method: The nuclear fusion reactor organism may reproduce through replication. They first store ample hydrogen, deuterium, and helium within their bodies, then use the energy produced by their internal micro-fusion reactor to initiate the replication process. This process consumes a significant amount of energy, but thanks to their strong and stable energy supply, they can easily complete it. The newborn organism will separate from the parent body and then rely on the abundant elemental resources on Silicon Star 2 to grow.

Behavioral Characteristics: Due to the high intelligence and fine control mechanisms of the nuclear fusion reactor organism, they may be a highly social, organized, and cooperative species. They might communicate through a form of electromagnetic wave communication, using their stable silicon crystal brains to process information and make decisions in high-temperature environments.

Predation and Defense: Considering the possibility of other silicon-based species existing in the SL Silicon Star 2 environment, the nuclear fusion reactor organism may use its ability to control fusion reactions to generate extremely high temperatures for short periods to attack prey and decompose it into absorbable elements. In defense, they can increase their surface temperature to prevent attackers from approaching or directly damage them.

Interactions with Other Organisms: The nuclear fusion reactor organism may have complex and tense coexistence relationships with other silicon-based organisms. Since all silicon-based organisms need to obtain resources from their environment to survive and develop, competition for resources is inevitable. On the other hand, due to the high intelligence and strong energy generation capabilities of the nuclear fusion reactor organism, they may also actively create and maintain mutual cooperative relationships to effectively utilize and manage planetary resources.

▶SL Silicon Star 2 Parameters:

SL Silicon Star 2 is an astonishing planet located in a distant star system. This planet appears to have immense external beauty, while its interior is filled with mysteries. It is teeming with silicon-based organisms that thrive in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, showcasing incredible adaptability and unique biological characteristics.

The surface of SL Silicon Star 2 is filled with active volcanoes and abundant geothermal energy, with endless heat permeating the planet's atmosphere. Volcanic eruptions release large amounts of gas, providing rich resources for the respiration of silicon-based organisms. Additionally, the rising atmospheric pressure allows these organisms to easily inhale fluorine gas and exhale silicon tetrafluoride. The intense blue sunlight bathes the planet, supplying the energy needed for silicon-based life.

On this planet, the gravity is lower, and the atmosphere is unusually dense. Silicon-based organisms can move quickly in such an environment, rapidly seeking food and adapting to survival challenges. In such harsh conditions, SL Silicon Star 2 nurtures a unique kingdom of silicon-based life.
