Chapter 13. Fallen Leaf Planet

The white nine-square grid on the telescreen flickered on and off. After a few seconds, it projected an image recording the end of the old era onto the screen.

This video has not been deleted in any way. It is not human and has no intention of covering up human stupidity. Moreover, it is very willing to communicate openly and peacefully with Liang and De at this time.

Before launching the attack, Geyu Base first read the recent memories of Jiangshanjiao and Chi Xuexi.

Through the information in Jiang Shanjiao's mind, it judged that these two creatures who called themselves "Jie Yuan Walker" were objects of communication, and the method of communication depended on the level of violence they mastered.

When I am strong and my enemy is weak, I use pure violence to communicate.

When the enemy is strong and we are weak, honesty and friendliness come into play.

In the brief confrontation just now, Jie Yuan Walker's side had already demonstrated violence that was enough to destroy the entire base.

Although Geyu Base has full confidence in safely escaping from the conflict, it cannot abandon the humans living in the base.

After the comparison between the enemy's and our own's forces became clear, Geyu Base quickly selected an appropriate communication method.

It assembled a friendly personality model from human observation records to communicate with those two powerful beings.

Although the claims from outside the community are somewhat absurd,

The fact that creatures unknown to it appeared on this dead planet cannot be explained by normal reasons.



"Turn it up a little faster, turn it up a little faster."

Liang De kept waving in front of the telescreen, signaling the Geyu Base to increase the playback speed.

Sun Xunqiao could keep up with the rhythm at the beginning, but later his eyes became full of mosquito coils.

"Can you go slower? I'm also watching. Is it necessary to rush like this?" He stretched out his hand and pulled Liang De, signaling the Geyu base to pause.

"After I read it, why don't I use my martial arts soul to pass on the key information to you? Senior brother, if you feel you are not good enough, just practice more. Don't always think about bringing others to the same level as you."

"Who wants to chew the chewing gum you have chewed? I hate the kind of videos where you watch a movie in a few minutes. What's the point of using your own brain to compete with other people's thoughts?"

Liang De looked unhappy when he heard this and almost said, "Hey!"

"Senior brother, your metaphor is so disgusting. What I passed on to you was chewed gum. It was the honey I brewed from the rough stuff!"

"Damn, your metaphor is even more disgusting, okay? Who wants to eat honey brewed by men?

Don't listen to him, slow down a little, I want to see for myself."

Geyu Base slowed down the playback speed and adjusted it to a level that Sun Xunqiao could keep up with. While playing for the two outsiders, it also sank into this period of history.



At first, no one cared about the bud of this war. It was just an economic crisis, a local conflict, a change of flag in a small country, and a piece of ordinary international news. Until this war became closely related to everyone.

One side of the war is retreating steadily, but it also drags the other side into the quagmire.

There is no victory, no glory. Human stupidity is the source and tone of this war, and this stubborn stupidity gives birth to the wisdom that brings destruction.

In the long and desperate war, the military technology of both sides continued to expand like a malignant tumor. Truth and awe were forgotten by everyone, and the top wise men devoted their entire lives to exploring the answers to the killing.

The fertile field watered by blood was covered with black flowers.

Finally one day, the side with the upper hand in the war found the final hammer that ended everything.

A scientific research team unearthed a meteorite deep in the polar ice cap.

Inside the meteorite, they found a living alien virus.

This ancient virus is completely harmless to humans and animals, but it can quickly block photosynthesis.

Whether it is plants, prokaryotes or algae, they can only wither and die after being infected by viruses.

It's like it was created to end this desperate battle with dignity.

The ecstatic war sages cultivated carefully modified viruses in the laboratory and prepared targeted reverse transcriptase inhibitors.

The ability of the modified virus to survive outside the organism is greatly reduced, and it is difficult to continue to spread through the air, soil and water. After the death of the host, they will soon die together, leaving almost no hidden dangers.

In order to make it easier to distinguish, the new virus is labeled with fluorescent protein, which shows a beautiful sweet orange color under a microscope.

This biological and chemical warfare agent was named "Falling Orange" and was dropped on the enemy's territory via various vehicles through the sky, the earth and the ocean.

Aquatic plants, algae, farmland, grasslands, forests... Under the infection of "Deciduous Orange", all organisms that rely on photosynthesis for survival quickly withered and died, and nearly one-tenth of the planet's land became a country of blight.

The party that released this orange demon failed to wait for the expected surrender letter, and a hundredfold madness was born from the ashes of despair in the Blighted Country.

The Alliance of Nations, which was attacked by the "Dead Leaf Orange", developed a brand-new modified virus. The irrational military madmen responded with tooth for tooth and blood for blood. The ancient virus took on new vitality in the battle.

Mutation, replication, spread... Mutation, replication, spread... Human beings keep dying, and viruses are thriving.

Eventually, the defoliation virus took over the soil of the entire planet and could dehydrate and feign death like a tardigrade, waiting for the opportunity.

After the leaves fall, famine comes as promised. Famine is the twin of war. This time, its power is unprecedented and unmatched. The death knight leads the skinny war horse through the whole world. People are like wheat kissed by a sickle.

They all fell down in pieces.

The remaining humans had to unite, and the war ended in a way that no one expected. In a world full of vitality, only a surviving underground base was left.



The telescreen went dark, and the emotionless voice of the Geyu Base sounded in the sealed metal space.

"Human beings are extremely self-destructive. As long as civilization develops to a certain level, they will always embark on the path of self-destruction."

"So you put them in captivity and separate them from the same kind. They can only generate electricity and watch live broadcasts every day.

Is this the peaceful way you think of?" Liang De asked.

The white nine-square grid logo of the Geyu Management Center flashes:

"As long as human beings gather in groups, there will be disputes. The so-called peaceful age is just to accumulate strength for the next war.

I separated them from each other and allowed them to communicate only through the telescreen. As a result, they used words to forge sharp weapons.

Anxiety, depression, suicide... tens of thousands of people die every year in the grid due to this invisible bullet.

But compared to a real war, this is the best result."
