Chapter 304: Element Decay, the Wormhole Has Been Destroyed
His family was indeed missing.
After the Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and many other gods had been born, they had all set their sights on Huaxia.
With a vast landmass, abundant resources, and a ton of talents, Huaxia had more than just the largest population. It was also the undisputed number one superpower in the world.
The strange thing was when the gods had been born in all countries and places in the world, there had been none in Huaxia. In other words, Huaxia had been a country without religion.
A large country with no religion was like a delicious big fat sheep. All of the gods had hoped to bring Huaxia under their rule, making it their territory of faith.
As a result, those gods had attacked Huaxia. Stellar beings like Emperor Might had tried their best to defend Huaxia despite being relatively weaker.
Even Ling Jiu’s family had also participated in the war.
It was a pity that the gods had been too powerful for them.
The two sides were not in the same league. The gods had ultimately defeated the powerhouses and jointly invaded Huaxia.
If it had not been for the high-tech weapons that the Huaxia government had developed at the last moment, Huaxia would have ended up like Europe and Africa.
“Where did Huaxia get its secret weapons from?” Ling Jiu was puzzled. “Even the stellar beings were no match for the gods. So what secret weapon could have stopped the aggressive gods?”
“Do you remember the Ayang-Braend people?” Leoux reminded him.
“The Ayang-Braend people?” Ling Jiu put two and two together. “You mean…”
“After acquiring the Ayang-Braend’s technology, countries around the world mobilized many scientists and scientific research-type Arcanists to conduct research on the Ayang-Braend’s technology. Among them, Huaxia and the United States conducted the most thorough study,” Leoux said. “You know, the individual strength of Ayang-Braend people is actually not strong, just about that of an ordinary stellar being. Their ability to conquer a large part of the galaxy and hold their own against the aliens is because of technology.”
Ling Jiu nodded.
“I told you before that the Ayang-Braends have attained the super-clustered civilization. They are quite familiar with element decay technology, energy shield technology, energy recoil propulsion navigation technology, and warp drive,” Leoux said.
” A super-clustered civilization is a watershed. The output limit of energy weapons is very high. Elemental decay weapons can turn the entire planet into energy, powerful enough to blow up a small planet. Huaxia people are very competitive, and they cracked the elemental decay technology, developing elemental decay missiles. They were only the first generation of elemental decay missiles, and there were still many flaws, but it gave them the ability to challenge the super-clustered beings.”
“That makes so much sense now.” Ling Jiu nodded.
“Thanks to the elemental decay missiles, the menacing gods had to leave Huaxia alone, albeit reluctantly. But to vent their anger, they started to hunt down the stellar beings of Huaxia, as well as attack remote small and medium-sized base cities,” Leoux said. “There were many gods, and they fanned out in their attack. Huaxia could do nothing else other than defend itself. Many stellar beings of Huaxia disappeared to evade the pursuit of the gods. It was under such circumstances that your family disappeared.”
At least, they were not dead.
Ling Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. “Do you know where they’ve gone?”
“I don’t know where they’ve gone.” Leoux shook its head. “Maybe they’ve gone to Whitehole 2, another planet, or they’re hiding elsewhere.”
“Let’s check out Whitehole 2 first,” Ling Jiu said. “They have most likely gone to Whitehole 2.”
“I don’t think so,” Leoux said. “Ever since the gods’ birth and their show of ruthless power, many people on Earth, including some stellar beings, have defected to the gods’ side. It is impossible for the gods to not know about Whitehole 2.”
Ling Jiu’s heart skipped a beat.
Ordinary people were not qualified to go to Whitehole 2, but all stellar beings on Earth went there to practice self-cultivation every other week.
News of Whitehole 2’s existence might have leaked out when those stellar beings defected.
“Your earlier suggestion may be correct, Leoux.” Ling Jiu took a deep breath. “Different people have different minds. We can’t give the books of the laws to everyone for self-cultivation before we vet them.”
“This time is a good litmus test,” Leoux said. “You can see who is loyal, who is a traitor, who is a coward, who is selfish, and who is selfless and worth nurturing.”
“That’s right.”
Ling Jiu then arrived on Mars.
The tremendous changes on Earth had also implicated Mars. The most obvious effect was that there was no one on Mars now.
The Ultimate Matriculation Camp stationed on Mars was empty. Not a soul was there. Mars had once again become uninhabited.
However, the terraforming of Mars did not stop.
The six wormholes connecting Ganymede still kept pumping water continuously.
Most of the surface of Mars had become a vast ocean after ten years. Appearance-wise, Mars was becoming a reduced version of Earth.
The super Arcana trees were growing rapidly on Mars because the seawater contained strong Dark Bio-energy.
So, there were patches of forest dotting the surface of Mars, giving the red and blue planet a hint of green.
“There is now enough seawater on Mars after ten years of irrigation,” Leoux said. “The next thing to do is to grow algae and plants on a large scale so that they can produce oxygen. With the current climate, temperature, light, and concentration of Gene Arcana on Mars, growing plants will be very simple.”
“Unfortunately, things have happened, and the Ultimate Matriculation Camp, as well as Mars’ terraforming team, have withdrawn. Otherwise, Mars would have already become a green planet.” Ling Jiu’s face was grave.
“Absolutely. Everything has been put on hold for the time being due to the emergence of the gods.” Leoux nodded.
“Let’s go to Ganymede.”
To Ling Jiu’s relief, the wormhole to Ganymede was still intact. So, the two arrived at Ganymede without a hitch.
However, when the two came to the wormhole that led to Whitehole 3, Ling Jiu’s mood abruptly took a plunge.
The wormhole that led to Whitehole 3 had been destroyed.
It meant they could no longer go to Whitehole 2 via the wormhole that connected to Whitehole 3.
“Who destroyed the wormhole?” Ling Jiu asked in a deep voice.
“Probably the gods, or the stellar beings of Earth,” Leoux said. “I guess it was most likely the stellar beings who did this. They destroyed the wormhole to stop the gods from pursuing them.”
“The wormhole has been destroyed, hence the passage connecting the two planets has been interrupted. It will be difficult for the gods to chase them down.
“But it also means that it will be difficult for them to return to Earth.”
Ling Jiu clenched his fists. “They wouldn’t have done this if they had other options.”
“Exactly.” Leoux nodded.
“Go to Whitehole 2 immediately, Leoux,” Ling Jiu said.
“No problem, but Whitehole 2 is far away from the solar system, about 2.78 million light-years. It will take a few days.”
“Go, now.”
