Chapter 1228 - Gaia (1/2)

Chapter 1228 Gaia

It was Mars more than three billion years ago.

The wind gusted around Jiang Chen as he looked at the endless wilderness, he was dumbfounded.

Just then, the light ball next to him continued on.

“See those rooms?”

Jiang Chen organized the messy thoughts in his head and forcefully nodded.

“I see them.”

“Those were originally full of works of art and valuable antiques. They recorded our tens of thousands of years of civilization. Before the apocalypse arrived, we tried everything in an attempt to leave something in this cold universe. Yet, as you can see, nothing in time is eternal.”

It seemed to be reminiscing about something, as the silence lingered for a long time.

“What should I call you?” Jiang Chen asked.

“We don’t need a voice to communicate. Based on your language, you can call us Civilization of Gaia,” The light ball said.

Gaia?

The mother of the G.o.ds in Greek mythology, the one that overruled the land, the most respected G.o.d among all G.o.ds. She was the first primitive G.o.d born in chaos and was wors.h.i.+pped as one of the original natural forces that created life.

As for why it chose this word from the Earth Civilization to name its civilization, perhaps only it would know…

“Well, Gaia? I’ll call you Gaia.” Jiang Chen turned to look at the light ball, then asked, “So Gaia, what are you going to do to me?”

However, Gaia did not answer his question, but whispered.

“Listen, it’s about to start.”

Just as it finished its sentence, Jiang Chen suddenly noticed two strange monsters appear about 50 meters in front of him.

He called them monsters because he had never seen such ugly insects.

One was the size of a calf. Its back was full of scales, countless long legs grew out from its abdomen, and its swaying tail was like a chain, screaming in the air. The sharp teeth were like two pairs of sickles, and the hundreds of steel teeth in its mouth were like needles, sharp and bloodthirsty.

The other monster was the size of a tiger. The two antennas on the top of its head were like tentacles. It was like a giant ant, except it had two more legs. The front half of its body was already in the air. Two spears made out of unknown substance pointed at the centipede-like beast.

Suddenly, the gra.s.s next to it moved.

The soil collapsed and five “ants” ambus.h.i.+ng underground suddenly snuck out, throwing their spear toward the centipede. The ants could easily support weight thirty times its body weight, so the spears were more like cannons as they easily penetrated the armor of the centipede, scattering its green blood all over the earth.

The prey desperately tried to swing its chain-like tail, trying to escape from the attack of these “ants”. However, with the organized attack of these “ants”, the struggle was futile.

Dust was flung into the air as the fight continued on.
