Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 818 - Mutual Destruction

Chapter 818: Mutual Destruction

Meng Chao could no longer see anything.

It was as if six pure white walls had appeared in all directions at the same time, extending endlessly toward the horizon and the depths of the universe, sealing all his senses within a pure white cube.

After an unknown period of time, a large number of screen-like windows appeared on the inner surface of the cube.

They were all from the perspective of monsters.

The roars, wails, and moans of countless monsters could be heard in the space, as well as the sound of them being turned into ashes.

However, all the windows and sounds were turned off at a lightning-fast speed.

It was as if someone had cut off the power supply.

Only then did Meng Chao realize that he was reading the memories that truly belonged to the micro brain or the mother.

As the space-based orbital weapons of the ancient civilization blew the horn of ultimate destruction, the mother’s “eyes, ears, tentacles, claws, and teeth” of the were all annihilated in an instant.

This also meant that the mothers perception and influence toward the starry sky was gradually being stripped away.

Through the last bit of information transmitted back when the monsters were on the verge of death, Meng Chao saw that the monsters that rushed out of the atmosphere.

Whether it was the ancient Golden Condor or the surging beast horde, all were vaporized within 0.5 seconds. Not a single molecule was left behind.

The monsters that remained on the ground and formed the stairway of flesh and blood one after another sank into an endless sea of fire and were burnt into black charcoal within a few seconds.

The “Tower of Babel” that was hundreds of kilometers tall collapsed. The corpses of countless monsters that were still in the air were broken into pieces and turned into vague black smoke.

The ground was even melted by the strong light and turned into boiling magma that poured into every crevice and cave on the shallow surface, burning and suffocating the monsters that were hibernating underground.

The overwhelming beast horde seemed to be devouring everything was swept away in just a few minutes.

Of course, all traces of the ancient cities and the facilities that the Ancients had built on the surface of the planet were also swept away.

In front of the supreme power of the space-based orbital weapons, the magnificent and soul-stirring attack and defense of the city just now was like a vicious joke.

It seemed that it was not that the Ancients could not do anything to their creations.

It was just that the space-based orbital weapons were too powerful. They could burn a planet that was full of vitality into a lifeless glass ball in an instant.

Therefore, the Ancients did not want to kill the planet unless it was absolutely necessary.

Such a mutually destructive attack would at least delay the development of the planet for hundreds to tens of thousands of years.

It was even possible that the planet, which was rich in spirit energy, had a pleasant environment, an atmosphere, and was at a moderate distance from the star. That made it very suitable for carbon-based intelligent life to flourish. Hence, they would completely lose the value of development and utilization.

Naturally, the furious ‘ancients’would not let go of the culprit.

Therefore, the area where the ‘mother’was located, which was the center of the hidden fog domain billions of years later, where the ‘sinkhole’was located, was hit by the most ferocious concentrated fire.

In an instant, the tentacles that the ‘mother’had poked out of the ground and the crystal pillars that were giving birth to monsters were all uprooted and broken down into the most basic elements.

The ground sank deeply, revealing a giant pit that was more than a kilometer in diameter and depth.

More than 50% of the active tissues of the ‘mother’were vaporized and annihilated, leaving not even a trace of dregs behind.

The shock wave that had yet to dissipate its lingering anger continued to advance deep underground, creating countless earthquakes along the way. Thousands of crisscrossing cracks were torn open on the body of the ‘mother’and in the surrounding rock layers.

Magma took the opportunity to pour in, burning all 50% of the active tissues of the ‘mother’that had yet to die into coke before melting the coke.

The ‘mother’knew that a great disaster was coming.

However, it was not an independent creature to begin with. It was a super-large-scale biological assembly. It was a man-made resource collection base and a monster factory.

Although it had powerful collection, production, and command capabilities, it was still a monster factory.

Its mobility was close to zero.

After losing the Monster Army that was the ‘eyes, ears,’and ‘claws,’the tentacles and organs that were spread out within a hundred kilometers could not withstand the bombardment of space-based orbital weapons at all.

The giant brain, which was buried deep in the core of the giant body, could only secrete mucus that was rich in metals and rocks outside the cerebral cortex in an instant, it formed a protective layer similar to the cranium. Even so, it could not withstand the attack of the shock waves and magma. Nine to nine percent of the brain cells were killed instantly.

The array-like microbrains hiding under the giant brain grew tentacles that looked like flagella. Like plankton, they scrambled to escape. One by one, they were caught, wrapped, swallowed, and annihilated by the shock waves and magma.

Meng Chao felt that the “Mother”was like a paraplegic who had been thrown onto the beach at high tide.

It could do nothing.

It could only watch as the tide called “Death”drowned its toes, ankles, calves, knees, thighs, pelvis, abdomen, chest, cervical vertebrae, chin, mouth, nostrils, and eyes inch by inch.

In the end, they were completely and forever shrouded by endless darkness.

However, at the moment of death, the mother didn’t have the slightest fear.

It didn’t even have much anger, hunger, and killing intent when it attacked the immemorial city.

It appeared like a lantern in the depths of its consciousness, and the only thing flashing in front of Meng Chao’s eyes was the patch of stars that he had seen when he had just broken through the atmosphere... it was incomparably distant, incomparably resplendent, and incomparably moving.

The star froze.

The final consciousness of the ‘mother’fell into a long slumber.

For a very long period of time, a brand new memory image did not appear.

This allowed Meng Chao to finally heave a sigh of relief and alleviate the soul-shaking impact brought about by the primordial war.

Moreover, under the frozen star, he was able to comb through all the information he had gathered from the ‘past’and the ‘future’and think quietly.

It seems that an accident that swept through the entire planet once occurred in the foreign world in the immemorial era... something like a virus leak or a genetic disorder

Meng Chao thought quickly, the ‘mother’and the monsters were originally created by the ‘Ancients’to modify the planet and push the civilization forward. However, for some unknown reason, the ‘mother’, which was the ‘Resource Collection Base’, the ‘laboratory’, and the ‘Arsenal’, awakened its self-awareness, controlled all the monsters, and rebelled against its creator and ruler.

“Of course, the accident is not as simple as what I saw in the memory of the ‘computer’.

“It should be known that the ‘computer’is just a unit of thought of the ‘mother’. There are at least thousands of similar units inside the ‘mother’.

“With the ‘computer’and the Endless Beast Tide, the ‘mother’is fully capable of launching an attack on hundreds of ancient cities in every corner of the planet at the same time.

“This is a real catastrophe!

“In the beginning, the ancients seemed to want to quell the disaster with conventional means.

“After all, the cost of using space-based orbital weapons is too great. Not only will the ancients work hard to run the planet, everything that they have built will be destroyed. Even the ecosystem of the entire planet may be ‘restarted’. It will take millions of years or more to restore the prosperity of the past.

“However, under the command of the main body, the strength of the Beast Tide far exceeded the Ancients’expectations.

“Following the fall and destruction of one immemorial city after another, especially since the main body actually evolved into a monster that could survive and fight in the vacuum of the universe, and was able to build a flesh ladder that was hundreds of kilometers tall. This was only a step away from using the corpses of monsters or even living monsters to build a synchronous orbit network outside the planet!

“The ancients could no longer ignore the threat of the mother body and the monsters.

“They had no choice but to burn the fertile planet and all the creatures on it into extremely hot glass balls!

“All the archaic vicious beasts were annihilated.

“Even with the size and strength of the mother body, it was still unable to withstand the full-force attack of the space-based orbital weapons.

“9.9% of the flesh and blood tissues lost their vitality.

“Only the last microbrain was left. It was lurking deep underground. Under the cover of the enormous corpses, it was lucky enough to escape the search and attack of the ancients.

“However, because the environment on the surface of the planet had become extremely harsh, it was not suitable for the survival and evolution of carbon-based creatures.

“Therefore, the ‘micro-brain’and the remaining 1% of the living tissue entered a long, deep sleep similar to that of suspended animation.”

Meng Chao sorted out the cause and effect.

He had a deeper understanding of the civilization and the war in the immemorial era.

However, he did not see the light of day and feel enlightened.

Instead, more mysteries appeared in his mind.

First of all, no matter how devastating the price of mutual destruction was, the archaic civilization had won the ‘War of counterinsurgency’.

Even if all the archaic cities on the earth were destroyed along with the surging beast tide, there would still be a war of counterinsurgency.

At the very least, the synchronous orbit network above the atmosphere and the space city were unharmed. The ‘ancients’could still thrive and develop their civilization in the space city.

Billions of years later, the sequelae of the space-based orbit attack had long since healed.

The earth had already recovered its vitality tens of millions of years ago. Like a big explosion, hundreds of humanoid creatures and intelligent races had appeared.

Why was there no trace of the ‘ancients’among them?

When the first shoots had grown on the devastated Earth, shouldn’t the ‘ancients’have descended from the space city onto the Earth and remodelled the planet?

Also, the memories of the “Microbrain”told Meng Chao that during the primordial war, the atmosphere of the other world was not much different from that of Earth. At the very least, there was no barrier that could prevent carbon-based creatures from flying out of the planet.

But why were the people of Dragon City who had crossed over to the other world unable to break through the atmosphere of the other world despite using all methods?
