Chapter 682: The Truth of the Mass Extinction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Things were progressing more smoothly than expected. Hao Ren found the information he had obtained in just half an hour was more than what he had collected for the past few months in the Plane of Dreams. However, the truth that the intelligence revealed was not so pleasant.

Thousands and thousands of years ago, a terrible conspiracy led the world to its current state today. Without listening to it with one’s own ears, no one would have thought that there would be a race so daring to commit such treachery; murdering the creator of all sentient beings and even conspiring to steal the religions of the entire universe. There were probably many ways for the mortals to pursue their divine power, but one thing was sure, the mad murderers of 10,000 years ago had chosen the worst method.

After listening to this piece of history, Lily lowered her head and thought for a long time before suddenly finding something suspicious. “Wait a minute, if the goddess had really called for help and the mortals had refused to do so, then there must be some records. When he went to the Ark Planet and Tannagost, there seemed to be no such information, neither Io.”

“Siren is a naturally occurred species, not a creation of the goddess,” said Hao Ren as he had also thought of this. “But the other two places you have mentioned are indeed … not only there is no record of the event but also the religion of the goddess!”

Hao Ren had already all the information about Tannagost and the Ark planet, so he was familiar with the history of these two civilisations. He knew that Tannagost had only hallow and ancient legend about the creator of life. The ark planet had no religion in the conventional sense after it entered the interstellar era. The databases of the two planets did not mention anything about the murder that took place ten thousand years ago. Although this was indeed not something glamourous enough to be recorded in history books, at least there should be some clues.

Upon hearing the conversations between Lily and Hao Ren, the giant said in a deadpan voice, “Indeed, some races had not heard mother’s distress call because they had forgotten who created them, and they even dismissed their own creator as an absurd story. These people has lost the ability to listen to their mother’s voice.”

Something suddenly crossed Hao Ren’s mind. He remembered an extremely important phrase in the sacred book of the Disciples of Glory: Those who forget God will lose their rights to revelation.

“Okay, they indeed did not hear it. This might be regarded as forgetting one’s root. But is forgetting one’s root a sin worthy of genocide?” Nangong Wudi, who was silent all this while, could not help questioning. He looked up at the giant. “At least it’s not a crime worthy of death, right? They didn’t even know what happened in the deep universe. Why did they have to be killed?”

The giant looked down at the little creature in front, suddenly lifting its finger to point to its own head. “Have you not found that I am different from my other siblings?”

“Oh yeah, I almost forgot to ask you about this!” said Hao Ren as the thought suddenly came to mind. “You know that you have some compatriots that have turned into… that thing, don’t you?”

The voice of the giant was rather calm this time. “Do you think how many more guardians could retain the humanity like me? Anger and despair have caused my brothers and sisters abandoning all human nature and reasoning, even the body mother has endowed us in order to correct this cosmic mistake. In the eyes of my fellow compatriots, the birth of the mortals is the greatest sin; they are greedy, short sighted, cunning and deceitful. They would slay their own mother for just a little enticement. They would wash their dirty linens in public. This virus-like phenomenon must be corrected. My compatriots believe that all mortal races must perish before they commit their second evil deed.”

“You mean that your compatriots have gone mad, including the First Borns and the brain-monsters, so they are only bringing destruction to all species indiscriminately.” Hao Ren looked into the giant’s eyes. “But you’re different from them, right?”

The giant said nothing. It seemed to have agreed in silence.

“No wonder I’ve never succeeded trying to communicate with the First Borns, I mean the First Guardians as you call them,” said Hao Ren, sighing. “I knew they were completely mad. I’m very lucky to have met you—one that has not gone mad… but do you still want to destroy Holletta?”

The giant was agitated hearing this. “The mortals on this planet are guilty; they should be put to death! They are one of the treacherous children who watched mother killed and yet did nothing!”

Everyone suddenly recalled what the soul of the pope had said. Those words sounded inexplicable, but they now seemed to make sense.

The pope must have discovered something before he died!

“But why did you let them live at last?” Vivian’s brows knit together. “Why? Because of the self-sacrifice of a human?”

The giant dropped its shoulders. “I don’t have to answer you.”

“Feeling embarrassed to answer it, isn’t it? I can see that. You do have feelings. It’s a good thing. At least you’re not a monster like your siblings,” Vivian suddenly laughed. “You are different from the First Borns and brain-monsters. You actually know that such blind revenge makes no sense, especially since the early treacherous children have died. Now the rest are either their offspring or simply passers-by who have nothing to do with them. Vengeance has made no sense now. I guess the Pope must have spoken with you before he died. Did you stop the massacre because of his advice?”

The giant stared deadly at Vivian, face angry. “How dare you judge the belief of a First Guardian?”

“I didn’t say you were disloyal to the goddess of creation. I just said that you are more like a sensible living person,” Vivian shook her head and continued. “Isn’t it good to have reason ability and feelings? Although they always produce unexpected changes when the two mixed, they are precisely the characteristics of a spiritual person. To be honest, I can understand the physical transmutation of the First Borns and brain-monsters, and even admire and sympathise with their current condition, but I could never agree with them. Extremism and uncontrollability are no good.”

The giant giggled. “It is these two things that let those damned treacherous children murder their mother.”

“Anyway, you shouldn’t hate all mortals because of this.” Hao Ren smiled. “Well, I know you don’t want to talk about this. Can I ask what happen to the treacherous guys now? Are they really God now?”

At this time, a sense of comfort finally appeared on the giant’s face. “Heck, they got their due retribution. Their stupid life hierarchy theory is simply the product of nightmare, and their minds are not worthy of carrying the power of the mother. When the creator of life died, the treacherous children would die by way of genocide as punishment, and the entire species would disappear instantaneously no matter where they hide in the universe.”

“If so, the murderer-race has all died?” Y’zaks appeared surprised. “What about the Planet of the goddess?”

The giant threw him a glance and then smiled. “Don’t you even think about it. Nobody can get to that place. Mother’s place is in a location you can’t never understand. If it wasn’t for the treacherous children stealing mother’s secret, they could not never approach the space. After mother died, the battlefield had been forever banished to the deepest chaos of the universe. No one can find it.”

Lily was quick to ask, “In other words, even you couldn’t go back?”

Once again, the giant chose to remain silent. That was an admission by the default, again.

After a moment of silence, Hao Ren looked up. “I have another question.”

“You seem to have a lot of questions,” the giant looked at him, emotionlessly. “I couldn’t believe that I have answered you so many questions… All right, ask while I still have patience.”

“I can’t help it, it’s not like I can always find someone who can talk with,” Hao Ren shook his head and continued. “How did you manage to stay awake and not mutate?”

The giant was silent for a moment and finally spoke in a nearly grievous voice. “Maybe there are other First Guardians who maintain their sanity as I do because mother has given us a mission at the last moment before she fell!”

They all spoke in unison. “Mission?”

“She asked us to activate the security protocol of the seeds of life. Before the big crash, she had seen the guardians starting to mutate. She hurried us to start the security lock to prevent a larger-scale ecological extinction,” said the giant. Suddenly, with all his strength, he punched on the crystal floor with his fist; it almost uttered the last few words in a fury. “I still remember that her last words: ‘Go and save them’!”
