Chapter 275: Longing for the Ocean

Translator: Yamir Moon

The various forces and cities in the areas of the previous ‘Panda country’ have combined together to form a country, which has begun to flourish.

Many of the things that previously existed in the old era have appeared.

Cars, mobile phones, TVs and the like.

A lot of people knew about their existence. All they had to do is to search for one of those products, take them apart and try to understand the function of each of their components, then create one themselves.

Through constant trial and error, they were able to bring these products to the world once again. It can be said that apart from a few differences, the currents human on the Blue Plate has reached the technological level of the previous early 21st century humans.

Although the Blue Planet human civilization has become more advanced, much of the previous information has been lost due to a variety of reasons, including the great flood, the long period of time, and the battle between various forces.

Their understanding of what happened in the disaster era is especially pitiful. They only know that the human civilization was attacked by aliens and monsters nicknamed the kaiju.

Previously, their human civilization fought with the aliens on this planet, causing a lot of damage all over the world. In the end, both sides suffered terrible losses and almost died together.

The previous human civilization was destroyed, leaving very few survivors, and the aliens were completely destroyed.

Doesn’t that mean that it’s their human victory?

However, in the information they found, the space channel or vortex wasn’t mentioned at all.

After a certain period of war, the new ‘Panda country’ ushered in peace, prosperity, and development. People started getting curious about the situation outside the Asian continent.

Many people went into the wild to act as archaeologists. They wanted to get more information about the old human civilization, especially information about what happened during the disaster era.

Some people also have illusions about overseas. From the information handed down from their ancestors, they know that there are more continents on the other side of the sea, so they are very curious and eager to know about their situation.

Various expedition ships set off, they mostly used wind-powered sailboats or even more backward boats.

They have no other choice. They have developed gasoline ships not long ago, but those ships aren’t affordable to ordinary people for now. They are only in the hands of their leaders.

Even if they manage to get one, they won’t be able to refuel due to the scarcity of oil.

Officials and leaders of the new country are very much in favor of this expedition.

There is no shortage of people now, so they don’t really care even if some people die or get lost.

Humans of the post-apocalyptic age are growing fast. They can reach maturity at the age of 8, and their life-span is almost 2 times higher than the humans of the old age. The average lifespan of a new human is 180 years, so after the wars, the number of adults has reached a terrifying point.

This also resulted in some weird situations hard to be imagined by people of the old and even the disaster age. In some families, there are even more than 5 generations, the great-grand-parents, grand-parents, parents, sons, and grandsons. Each and every one of them is healthy and can live for a long time.

If it weren’t for the fact that all kinds of food crops can easily grow in fertile lands, the new ‘Panda Country’ would have become a mess.

According to some recent research, the population of ‘Panda country’ is now in the tens of millions, and will soon reach 100 million. The new humans are much more terrifying than the old ones.

The purpose of these expeditions was to check the situation of the humans on the other continents, discover and capture new lands, and if possible, gather information about the situation of the disaster era.

In addition, these explorers are also required to try to find the location of various minerals, materials and natural resources. The people who discover the location of these materials will get a huge reward.

Because of all the mentioned reasons, many people set off to the sea.

Especially after a sea monster incident happened, people’s longing for the sea increased even more.

At noon on a certain day, a city on ‘New Panda Country’ coast. The former Donggang City has disappeared, replaced by a brand new city built on its ruins;

On the beach, many people are basking in the sun, and not far away, there is a pier, which happens to have workers unloading various types of equipment.

”Oh, what is that?”

Just when the people on the people happily playing and relaxing, a tourist suddenly pointed at a black point in the ocean not far away and shouted.

The people nearby immediately reacted. They followed the of the tourist’s finger, looking at the place that was pointed out. In that direction, they saw the raging waves heading towards the beach, and on these waves, there is something that is getting pushed towards them.

Some people started getting scared. They quickly got up and ran back to the city, in case it’s a monster or something.

Some were more daring. They got a bit closer and looked curiously the object that is constantly drifting over.

”Brother Han, what’s that thing?”

Among the curious crowd, a fat white man in a pair of beach pants asked the guy next to him.

”How could I know?”

The man beside him frowned and said.

”The ocean is so big, who knows what kind of creatures are wandering in it?”

As the waves pushed the black point closer and closer, its image gradually cot clearer. It’s an animal, an extremely huge animal.

”Gulp.”

Many people on the beach swallowed their saliva due to their nervousness, they all looked at the huge monster with a shocked look on their faces.

”Oh my god, what kind of creature is this? It’s so huge.”

Some people were amazed. They noticed that the incoming creature has a huge round head, it also has a lot of stout tentacles.

”Is that an octopus?”

After recognizing the identity of the incoming creature, some people shouted out loud. However, although that thing has the appearance of an octopus, it’s size is way beyond their cognition.

”Brother Han, how big is this octopus? If we turn it into takoyaki, I wonder how many takoyaki can we make?”

The fat white man in beach pants looked at the body of the giant octopus with surprise, then said to the man next to him with some drool on his face.

They realized a while ago that this monster is dead, that’s why it was pushed by the waves so powerlessly.

”Is this one of the ‘Kaiju’ that destroyed the previous human civilization?”

There is no detailed pictorial book or the like for reference about what the ‘kaiju’ looks like. They also didn’t find any corpse or body of those kaiju, so they don’t really know how do they look like.

The new humans were very excited due to the discovery of the giant octopus. It means that they will finally uncover some of the secrets about the destruction of the previous human race, and what exactly happened in the disaster age.

Many experts are studying the detailed process of the destruction of the old human civilization, but the information they have is too little for detailed analysis.

They only know that many years ago, the aliens and monsters invaded. The previous human civilization had a very long and arduous war with them. In the end, a worldwide flood swept the world, then both the old human civilization and the aliens disappeared.

Apart from that, they have no relevant information about any else, including information about the aliens themselves and the infamous kaiju.

The current historiography thinks that the behemoths recorded in the materials passed down by their ancestors might be the so-called kaiju. Many experts hope to find the skeleton of aliens and kaiju from the wild to verify their conjectures, but they didn’t find anything up to now.

”Were monsters like this able to truly destroy the previous human civilization?”

The white fat man stared at the giant octopus body that is lying on the beach with wide eyes. He tried to see the abilities of this octopus that enabled it to destroy something as amazing as the previous human civilization.

Although this creature looks very huge, the previous human civilization possessed an incredibly amazing technology.

Far higher than their current technological strength.

It is said that humans of the previous era have already conquered space. They created huge ships that flew in the sky at very high speed and had the destructive power to raze down mountains.

After the giant octopus landed on the beach, some people bravely approached it and carefully examined the appearance of this giant creature.

Some people also called the relevant departments, asking them to come and dispose of this giant monster’s body.
