Here is Mars more than three billion years ago.
Standing in the wind, looking at the endless wilderness, Jiang Chen was a bit forced.
Just then, the ball of light floating next to him continued to open.
"See those rooms?"
Finished the messy thoughts in the lower brain, Jiang Chen barely nodded.
"See it."
“There were original works of art and valuable antiques. They recorded our tens of thousands of years of civilization. When the end of the day came, we tried everything and tried to leave something in this cold universe, yet As you can see, nothing in the face of time is eternal."
It seems to be remembering something. The light ball has been silent for a long time and has not been opened again.
"What should I call you?" Jiang Chen asked.
"We don't need voice communication. If you follow your language, you can call us Gaia civilization." The light ball said.
Gaia?
The mother of the gods in Greek mythology is the illustrious **** of all the gods. She is the first primitive **** born in chaos and is worshipped as one of the original natural forces that created life.
As for why he chose this word from the earth civilization to name his civilization, perhaps only he himself knows...
"Well, Gaia? I will call you Gaia." Jiang Chen turned his face and looked at the light ball and asked, "So Gaia, what are you going to do to me?"
However, Gaia did not answer his question, but whispered.
"Hey, I want to get started."
Just as its voice fell, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed that there were two strange monsters in the position about 50 meters in front of him.
It is called a monster because he has never seen such an ugly insect.
One has the size of a calf, the crust of the scales on the back, the abdomen swaying with countless long legs, the swaying tail like a chain, screaming in the air. The sharp front teeth are like two pairs of sickles, and the hundreds of steel teeth in the mouth are like needles, and they are sharp and bloodthirsty.
The other side also has the size of a tiger leopard. The two antennas on the top of the head are like tentacles. The shape is like a large ant. It is just a pair of strong forefoot than the ant. The front half has already left the ground. Two spears that didn't know what to make were pointing to the beast that looked like a beast.
Suddenly, the grass next to it moved.
The soil was broken, and five "ant" ambushing underground suddenly threw out, throwing a spear in the hand toward the cockroach. Can weigh the strength of its own weight thirty times, that root short hair is like a cannonball, nailed through the armor, green blood is covered with the earth.
The prey struggled to sway with a chain like a tail, trying to escape from the encirclement of these "ant". However, under the aggressive attack of those "ants", this struggle has become futile.
In a dusty beating.
The prey gradually disengaged because of blood loss, and the strong arthropods came forward, controlled the prey, and scraped its soft belly with sharp ore...
Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and asked.
"Those are Gaia...we?"
"Yes," the ball of light swayed up and down. "Those hunters with spears are Gaia. And the beast that is armed to the teeth is one of the most dangerous creatures on the planet. Its bite force is probably It is five times the dead claws."
"Do you still know the dead claws?"
"I said, I have seen your memory... Please don't be nervous, you and me are standing here. And I, I am just a memory." I saw the jealousy in Jiang Chen’s eyes. The light ball said softly.
"Because of the many reasons of gravity, environment, etc., the animals on this planet are weak, they are short, the bones are fragile, and even we are not interested in hunting. This planet used to be the world of arthropods. All resources such as groundwater, minerals, and energy are also buried in the ground that only the digger can reach."
Jiang Chen accidentally looked at the light ball.
He was not surprised that Mars, which was depicted more than three billion years ago, turned out to be the insect world, but that the Amos guy unexpectedly guessed it all by virtue of his imagination.
“We learned to use the tools and finally stood at the top of the food chain. Even the most dangerous and bloodthirsty devil worm fell under our spears.”
"And our civilization is starting from this day."
"We excavate our own Great Wall underground, use granite to consolidate our own holes, make armor with the hard shell of the prey, and tie the limbs and sharp stones to grow spears. The devil's cub is the most delicious food, we Build your own ranch in the ground, cultivate fungi like mushrooms, and develop your own civilization..."
The sun and the moon are changing at the top of the head, and the grass is dying.
Jiang Chen watched as the mountain was filled, the plain was dug out of the ravine, and a Gaia, who was only wearing a steel armor, drilled from the ground and charged toward another group of Gaia. The devil worms were riding under their feet, and there were other species that he had never seen before, and they were also covered with armor, trampling as a war monster to the enemy's position.
The two teams collided and the green blood flew in the air.
"Iron Age." The light ball whispered, "Our keen sense of minerals helped us find iron ore. When a prophet perceives the iron-smelting technique, the incredible speed of our civilization, from the Stone Age to the Iron Age - the most barbaric era."
The killing sound gradually stopped. When the last Gaia pulled the spear out of the same kind, he lifted up the blood-stained flag from the ground, shook the tentacles on his head, and slammed its spear and flag together. Plugged in this piece of land.
"We don't have a vocal cord, but in contrast, our brain is very developed. We rely on the antennae to communicate, although more often, we rely on the spear on the hand."
"All tribes are built around the female worm, and a tribe usually has only one female. Our tentacles are antennas, and our neural signals can be directly converted into electromagnetic waves. We have stood in an invisible position since we were born. On the Internet, a net opened with the mother insect as the core. For the same kind of standing on different 'signal bands', our choice is usually war. Grab each other's cubs, livestock, kill each other's female insects, occupy Their nest."
"Then repeat the same fusion day after day, repeating the same split..."
The sun and the moon continue to change, and the location where the spear and flag were originally inserted has been replaced by a stone monument. The battlefield of the previous corpse was covered by a staggered tunnel, and low-rise buildings and walls were built.
“Although we live underground, but limited by tradition and belief, almost all of our wars are on the surface.”
“Even in the most difficult times, we are not willing to live on the surface. There is no interest in the sky, but the monument is an exception. We are keen to build a monumental monument on the ground to commemorate the victory that once happened here. But that's it, we never stay on the surface for too long."
"In a sense, it is such a tradition or belief in the earth that has restricted our exploration of aliens in later years. But if we ask if we regret our choice, our answer is no. We never regret it..."
