Chapter 3080 Breaking Through by Force
Li Yao was in a dilemma.
It was indeed as the Observer had said. The boundary between good and evil was already blurred.
He had thought that the Pangu Clan was the embodiment of pure evil and coldness, but now it seemed that the reason for the civil war was not entirely unreasonable.
Weird and terrifying things such as the primeval relics, the Heaven’s Path Tower, and the ultimate test might destroy the civilization and restart the universe if they were not careful. Other than the primeval relics, the civilization that had been destroyed could not even leave a trace. It was the most humiliating way to die.
Whoever was asked to run such a wretched test would have to consider everything carefully and carefully. A hundred examples of the victims were right in front of their eyes. The odds that the Pangu civilization could pa.s.s the test were less than 1%. As the leader of the civilization alliance, sealing the tower temporarily was indeed the most responsible choice that the Pangu Clan could make.
It seemed that Li Yao had been hesitating whether or not to establish his own exploration squad to explore the ancient relics.
If they had really come to this place and found the ‘corpses’ of the civilization, their brains would’ve been extremely calm, too, and they wouldn’t have dared to act rashly.
From this perspective, Li Yao’s choice and the Pangu Clan’s choice were actually the same.
On the other hand, Lu Qingchen was a lunatic who feared nothing and no one. Even if he knew that the failure of the test would result in the annihilation of the human civilization, he would certainly be eager to give it a try. In this matter, Lu Qingchen was on the side of the Nuwa Clan.
The question was, between the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan, between Li Yao and Lu Qingchen, which one of them had made the right choice to push the wheel of history forward and save their civilization?
They didn’t know. They really didn’t know. Faced with the vast and unknown sea of stars, the only thing they knew was that they knew absolutely nothing!
Li Yao sighed and listened to the Observer.
The following story was very simple.
The people of the Heavenly Palace knew that a civil war had broken out in the outside world, and the ideology of both sides of the civil war was something that they could not agree on. The scholars who were willing to sacrifice dozens of generations of their lives to save their compatriots and their civilization were even less willing to provide destructive weapons to help the ambitious people slaughter their own people. Therefore, they chose to seal the primeval relics and completely block the Heavenly Palace from the outside world. They even thought of various ways to hide the entrances of the primeval relics so that they would be a whole different world.
For a period of time, their methods were indeed effective. No matter how heated the civil war outside was, no matter how many Sectors were burnt to the ground and how many experts perished, the storm of destruction never reached the Heavenly Palace.
It was a pity that he could not hide himself forever.
It had been a long time since the Pangu Civilization discovered the primeval relics. With the advanced s.p.a.ce navigation technology, it was possible to map the patterns and trajectories of the entrances of the relics precisely. As the civil war grew more and more intense, the capability of the two parties plummeted. When they were about to perish together, the importance of the Heavenly Palace became more and more obvious.
At this point, it was safe to say that whoever controlled the Heavenly Palace would win the civil war and become the new master of the Pangu Civilization. They would carry out their ideology to the end.
On the other hand, if both sides of the civil war suffered heavy losses, it was very likely that the people of the Heavenly Palace would rush out of the primeval relics with their amazing technology and magical equipment, clean up the mess, and rule over the Pangu Civilization. It was absolutely intolerable for both sides of the civil war.
Therefore, the high wall at the periphery of the primeval relics, which had been sealed for almost a hundred years, was finally broken by the civil war. They pointed their last attack at the Heavenly Palace almost at the same time and were caught unprepared.
“At this point of the civil war, the wise, wise, and considerate politicians and military strategists have all perished. The last bit of rationality and tolerance on both sides have been extinguished in the burning fire. The commanders of the two remnants have become the most extreme lunatics.
The Moongazer Serpent said, “The crazies and lunatics are indeed eccentric. They have melded quite a few kinds of genetic weapons that were leaked out of the primeval relics and retrieved part of the dormant genes inside the ancestors’ bodies, thereby creating several powerful biochemical weapons with serious side effects.
“On one hand, they want to use the biochemical weapons on themselves so that they will have the strength of their ancestors, too. In their ideal state, the Pangu Clan, which used to be more than twenty meters tall, will be able to expand into an ancient beast almost two hundred meters tall after they are injected with the biochemical weapons. But they will still maintain a clear mind and a controllable self. Not only will they be able to carry out highly complicated tactical missions, they will also be able to restore their original appearance after the mission and reduce the consumption of energy and life.
“But on the other hand, they’ve developed biochemical weapons targeting each other, hoping to interfere with the enemy’s gene pool as much as possible so that the enemy will mutate into a crazy monster.
“A lot of biochemical weapons were thrown into the battlefield and melded with other deadly viruses that had been spreading on the battlefield for a long time. Then, a series of unknown mutations took place. Eventually, the ‘Monster Virus’ that could destroy an entire civilization was born.
“You’ve seen the power of the virus just now. It can turn a normal prehistoric man into a terrifying prehistoric beast. In most cases, the rationality and wisdom in his brain will be wiped out, and the instinct to kill and destroy will be strengthened.
“Only a few experts with special genes or high Cultivation were lucky enough to survive the corrosion of the monster virus.
“It must be noted that the Pangu civilization at that time was already on the verge of death. Most of the people were hiding in underground shelters or stars.h.i.+ps, living in fear all day. In enclosed environments such as shelters and stars.h.i.+ps, the virus could spread very fast. As long as one of the civilians was infected and mutated into a terrifying prehistoric beast, no one in the entire shelter or the stars.h.i.+p would be spared.
“In the end, the Pangu civilization in the outside world was destroyed by the ‘monster virus’ that we created ourselves.
“And when the culprit who caused all this discovered that they had caused a great disaster, they clutched the Heavenly Palace, this life-saving straw, even tighter.
“They firmly believed that they had no other options right now. The only way to treat their maddened compatriots and save the Pangu Civilization was to enter the Tower of Heaven, pa.s.s the ‘ultimate test’, and receive all the knowledge of their ancestors. Right now, even the commander of the Pangu Clan was not so resolute. However, the sacrifices of billions of people had condensed into a blood feud that could dye every star in the universe red. It was not going to disappear so easily. “Therefore, both sides of the civil war sent their last, best, and craziest forces to a.s.sault the Heavenly Palace.
“Among them, the commander of the Pangu a.s.sault Team is named ‘Death’ and the commander of the Nuwa a.s.sault Team is named ‘Dragon Lotus’.
Of course, the Observer was not talking about the ‘Dao of Ma.s.s Destruction’ or the ‘Dragon Lotus Seed’, but the overlapping syllables that contained endless information.
Li Yao could sense the formidability of the two commanders from the overlapping syllables. He even ‘saw’ their b.l.o.o.d.y battles in a trance.
They were unparalleled experts who could move mountains and overturn seas with a wave of their hand.
After they were infected with the ‘Monster Virus’, they were able to maintain their self-awareness and rationality with their strong willpower. The two commanders were even stronger than before, to the point that Li Yao felt cold all over his body.
“So, he is the last elite of the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan. No wonder I was so alarmed when I saw him through the surveillance video.
Li Yao thought to himself.
“The leader of the Heavenly Palace is named “Gu Wuxin’. We are not willing to let them in. The Observer continued, “On one hand, as you can see, the two a.s.sault teams met unexpectedly in the primeval relics. They released the most intense monster virus to each other first and turned each other into neither human nor ghosts. Their current appearance will only sully the sanct.i.ty of the primeval relics and destroy the lifelong work of dozens of generations of experts and scholars.
“On the other hand, in order to pa.s.s the ‘ultimate test’, the most important thing is to maintain absolute calmness and rationality. It is not something that can be broken through by brute force. In the hundreds of civilizations that have pa.s.sed the test in the past, there were many warriors who were stronger than the ‘Exterminate the Sectors’ and the ‘Dragon Lotus Seed’. But they did not even get to see the real test before they fell at the feet of the ‘Thunder Valley’, the ‘weight ocean’, and the ‘snow mountain’.
“Letting these brainless brutes and barbaric, professional soldiers try to break through is like letting a bull embroider. It is absolutely impossible to succeed.
“However, those guys were determined to pa.s.s the test, and n.o.body could stop them. After they broke the barrier of the primeval relics by force, they indeed started slaughtering and sabotaging. Faced with an irreversible situation, our leader ‘Gu Wuxin’ made a helpless choice. Some of them were asked to resist two crazy armies or ‘beast tides’, while “Gu Wuxin’ led another batch of experts and scholars into the ‘ultimate test’.
“After all, Gu Wuxin and the professors are a team that studies the ultimate tests. They’ve studied the Heaven’s Origin Sector for a thousand years and learned a lot of lessons. They’ve even found many reasons why the ancient civilization failed.
“If we have to brace ourselves for the ultimate test, of course, Gu Wuxin’s team of experts is more suitable than the a.s.sault team of the Pantheon of Demons and Long Lianzi.
Li Yao nodded his head while he listened. He could not help but ask again, “Then, what is the change of the curvature of time?”
