Chapter 294: Adventures in the Lilliputian Country
In the 256th year of the Crisis Era, in the huge underground headquarters, a large number of senior military generals sat there with stern expressions and listened to an officer's information report.
"About half a month ago, a hole collapsed in the far east, and a large number of ancient creatures from the Triassic Period fell into our territory."
"These ancient creatures are so big that they can easily overturn our tanks and armored combat vehicles. In order to protect the safety of the people, our army resisted desperately on the border. During the battle, the army suffered heavy casualties, and many cities unfortunately fell."
An officer pointed to the phantom picture on the wall: "After the sky collapsed again, some cult organizations took the opportunity to spread doomsday speeches and persuade people to follow them to heaven. Now there are signs of riots in many places, and the situation once reached the point of threatening national power."
"In order to prevent the situation from expanding further, our army has deployed some troops to the city to maintain social order. However, this is not a solution to the problem after all, so the head of state wants humans to migrate again."
"Migrate again?"
An old general with white hair raised a question: "Where can humans migrate now? Due to the continuous collapse of the sky, the earth became a prehistoric park 200 years ago. Even the cold Antarctic and North Pole have giant ancient creatures.
Existence. Migration is just a way for you young officers to escape from problems. Most of you have never experienced migration and do not know what migration means. Let me tell you that once the entire population migrates, the only outcome is that we will completely enter death and despair."
The old general looked around at the participants with sharp eyes: "Everyone here may not know that since humans lost land and sea, we have carried out two large-scale migration operations."
"When we migrated to the Antarctic and Arctic for the first time, we thought they were safe places. In fact, the immigrants did spend a stable period on the cold ice sheets, but compared to the 180 million we lost during the migration,
The military and the people, until now, we all think it is not worth it, so the military has banned this piece of history."
The old general calmed down and said, "The second time is the arid desert under our feet. If you are interested, you can go home and ask your fathers how many people died on this road along the way?"
"Let me tell you, our feet are not sand, but layers of mummies, all of which died during the Great Migration. Therefore, I do not agree with the stupid proposal of migration anyway."
"But humans can't hide in the arid desert forever." The head of state opened the door and entered the conference room: "The earth has no place to migrate, so what about space? Ancient creatures can't occupy the entire universe, right?"
The old general turned to look at the head of state: "I admit that there are many planets in the vast universe that are more suitable for human habitation than the earth, but please don't forget the head of state. The more suitable a place is for life to live, the more likely it is that higher-level civilizations will exist.
.
If one day in the future we have the technology and ability to migrate to outer space on a large scale, and finally reach there after a long space voyage, what should we do if the indigenous people there regard us as invaders? What do you think a fleeing race has?
Ability to resist attacks from indigenous people?”
The head of state was stunned and didn't know what to answer.
"The basis of survival is territory. Even the lower animals in nature understand this truth. Therefore, space immigration is not a good plan and will only trigger higher-level civilized wars. The history of wars over the years tells us that human beings have already experienced
We can’t afford any war except for paleontology.”
The head of state sighed: "We really haven't considered this issue. If it doesn't work, then we can only mobilize the people to fight the Patriotic War."
The head of state said solemnly: "Inform Master Lalatu Astrologer and ask her to ask God to give us some enlightenment. We are all children of God, but God sent ancient demons to punish us. I don't understand, what did we do wrong?"
Lalatou is the last female astrologer of mankind, and she is also a very great prophet and scientist. She is extremely talented and can always get correct revelations from heaven. Leaders in the military and political circles all respect her and regard her as
As the guide of destiny.
In the evening, Master Lalatu walked up the endless steps of the Tower of Babel, his black astrological robe whistling in the wind and sand.
The Tower of Babel is a holy place where astrologers pray for mankind. It was built on a huge cactus in the desert.
This cactus is more than 500 meters high, with large clouds floating on its top. It is the tallest plant structure in the entire Western Desert.
Standing on the towering Babel Tower, you can not only overlook the entire desert kingdom, but also have closer contact with the sky.
The two guards looked nervously at the back of the Lalatu astrologer and whispered: "If God doesn't give us any instructions, humankind will soon perish if this continues. I heard that a hole collapsed in the far east, and this time it fell.
The ancient creature is so big that it can smash our building into pieces."
Lalatou heard the conversation and looked back at the two guards: "Don't be afraid, child, God has not given up on us, never has, he is just testing us, just like your mother lets you sleep alone at night,
She just wants you to grow up."
The guards lowered their heads in awe, stopped talking, and watched Master Lalatou walk to the top of the Tower of Babel, the place where he could have a close conversation with God.
This divination took a long time. It was not until the night faded and the sun began to rise that Laratu walked down the Tower of Babel with a tired look on his face.
She returned to the Capitol and told the head of state that God had not given up on mankind. The collapse of the sky was just an accident. In order to save the suffering mankind, it had now sent an envoy to help mankind overcome the difficulties.
"Where is the messenger from heaven?" the leader asked.
Lalatu pointed to the distance: "Humanity's old site!"
Former human sites, also known as lost lands, generally refer to all the vast lands that have been lost.
The word was first coined 256 years ago. On that day, the sky suddenly collapsed and a Trilobite from the Devonian period struggled and fell into the vast ocean.
For humans, the arrival of this trilobite is a disaster!
Like bacteria, it thrived in warm oceans and soon took over the entire ocean.
Later, huge land creatures also began to descend from the sky and compete with humans for land. Human beings realized the seriousness of the matter and began to form an army to eliminate the ancient intruders.
The war was fierce.
During those difficult war years, the army suffered heavy casualties and continued to lose territory.
Cities fell one by one, countries perished one by one...
Finally, the land was completely destroyed, and more than one billion humans were driven out of their homes by the ancient creatures and forced to migrate to the arid desert.
The desert is the last desolate place on earth that has not been invaded.
The sun there is so fierce that it can turn people into mummies alive!
Although it is not suitable for life, it has become a natural barrier for humans to block the army of ancient creatures.
The surviving humans dug shelters from the scorching sun on huge cacti, living on the plants like bugs, dreaming of one day walking out of the desert and regaining the land and ocean they had lost.
That is the home of mankind and cannot be given away!
After humans collectively moved into the desert, the outside world became a veritable prehistoric forest, filled with towering ancient plants and huge and ferocious ancient creatures.
No one can survive in the human ruins for more than three days!
Even a heavily armed army would have difficulty getting out of that terrifying giant forest without the support of tanks and heavy artillery.
The head of state looked pale: "Why is it the site of humankind? I don't even want to hear this word."
Lalatou said: "God wants its messengers to understand the tragic situation of mankind. Only then will the messengers be willing to help us."
"Okay." The head of state said: "I will propose to Congress to dispatch combat troops to the ancient sites of mankind to meet the historians."
After the order was issued, the desert kingdom's troops began to assemble. Under the escort of tanks and armored combat vehicles, humans walked out of the arid desert that had not been walked out for half a century.
This day is called "the day of release" by historians.
