The Great Worm Lich

After listening to Zhang Lisheng’s endless stream about the carvings on the Amazon cannibal’s totem pole, Sheila nodded and said, “It’s exactly because you told us about the pattern of the cannibal totem pole sculpture, the fact that Dr. Tubalin has murdered so many Aryan people and even almost killed Trish, and that this mad Doctor has even mentioned about the Tatetutu people being the most loved descendant of the gods that we came to form a kind of conjecture. Dr. Tubalin and his Tatetutu race are actually the descendants of the Tattdu who controlled the first solar age in the ancient history of America, or the Mayan mythology…”

“The Tattdu who controlled the first solar age in the Mayan mythology?”

“Yes, the Tattdu people. Legend has it that they’ve established a super-powered civilization composed of fallen mortal gods. These people have characteristics as such: their height is about 1 meter tall and their skin is emerald in color. The men can fly and even have all kinds of extraordinary abilities. The women, on the other hand, are just ordinary green midgets. The only thing special about them is that the womens’ uterus has the ability of connecting to the gods. They can psychically link to the gods in heaven who want to be born and if there’s any god that is willing to be born, only then do they give birth to children…”

“Interesting. I remember Dr. Tubalin once saying that in ancient times, when the woman of the Tatetutu wanted to give birth to life, they would pray to the gods in the sky. When they have obtained the resonation from the gods, only then would they give birth to gods. At that time, I thought he was spouting maniacal nonsense…” Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself.

“No, no, no, dear Lisheng. This is not madness in the Mayan mythology. In fact, according to the description in ancient mythology about the Tattdu people, if it wasn’t for the fact that they’ve encountered a catastrophe, a bizarre disaster that caused the entire mainland to sink and rise again, they would have still been ruling the entire Americas right now. However, regrettably, in the face of the unbearably great catastrophe, the civilization established by the Tattdu was destroyed. However, a small number of people have fled to the polar continent and managed to survive. Unfortunately, perhaps due to the hardships of the escape, or perhaps of their fear of natural disasters, this group of lucky people have forgotten everything about their past. The extraordinary abilities they mastered have also gradually disappeared inexplicably. Because of this, they no longer could restore the original super powerful civilization. They could only blaze another trail and create another Mesopotamian civilization to begin the second solar age in the Mayan mythology. Legend has it that not only that the men among the new Tattdu people, or should I say the Mesopotamian people, didn’t have any superpower, they have gradually deteriorated till they could no longer fly. Their only characteristic was their love for food, prompting them to develop a variety of cooking methods. For this reason, it’s also known as a food civilization…”

“Food civilization? Didn’t they live in the polar regions?”

“Oh Lisheng, this is a mythical record. Only God knows how exactly did the Mesopotamians live and what exactly they ate. But anyway, this is not important because this trash civilization that is eventually destroyed by the earth’s magnetic poles is not worth mentioning at all. Let skip past the Mesopotamian civilization and come to the third solar age of the Murya civilization. Just like how the Mesopotamians are the fugitive from the Tattdus, the Muryans are the lucky children from the Mesopotamians as well. These lucky ones fled the polar continent and came back to the American continent that has risen again from the bottom of the sea. After returning to their hometown, these ‘gluttonous people’ have somehow become smarter. Although they did not recover the superpowers of their ancestors, they grasped the opportunity to use bio-energy through observing the germination process of plants. Not only that, they also used this principle to create countless practical and powerful machinery so because of this, the Muryan civilization is also called as the bio-energy civilization…”

“Ha! I think I found the rhythm already. The third solar age is the ‘bio-energy civilization’ so that’s why the third layer of all the cannibal totem poles are engraved with many green dwarfs hanging on the big branches. This makes sense! And then? What catastrophe did these unlucky Muryans encountered?”

“Lisheng, they didn’t encounter natural disasters, but man-made disasters instead. In other words, it’s the Atlantians, the alien colonists who came from Orion, who was also the ancestors of Aryan people, who ruled the fourth solar age and could use some mysterious gemstones to control light and fire. These people are characterized by their long and slender limbs and fair skin, as well as their flame-like red hair…”

“You mean, Trish is a descendant of aliens?” When Zhang Lisheng heard Sheila’s words, he turned his shocked gaze onto Trish who was sitting in front of him. When he looked at the girl’s creamy white skin, slender limbs and her red burgundy hair, he blurted out in bafflement, “S-She’s not an Earthling?”

“The solar age took place, who knows, tens of thousands of years ago so even if my family has the slightest bit of Atlantian bloodline, we have already become a pure genuine Earthling. Think about it, Lisheng, your ancestors are also evil spirits! So, do you think of yourself as a human or not?” Trish looked back at the young man’s horrified gaze and asked back angrily.

“Oh I’m sorry, Trish! I was merely asking.”Zhang Lisheng shrugged. “Sheila, do continue. What happened after the Atlantian civilization had successfully colonized America?”

“The climax of the Mayan legend is coming now.

Although the colonists from the outer planet included America’s history into the fourth solar age, they never completely defeated the remaining Muryans. The confrontation between bioenergy and ‘light and fire’ ran through the entire solar age. In the end, the Atlantians risked everything on a single venture and desperately used fire and rain to trigger the destruction of the earth and even used nuclear weapons. At this time, the Muryans had also invented energy amplifiers so they used the terrible power of bio-molecular fusion to fight back. In this nuclear war where both sides suffered great losses, 1000 doors leading to foreign worlds emerged one by one. The Mayan mythology suddenly ended here, leaving behind only a solar calendar that lasted until December 21, 2012.

Then, it was the conjectures made by the three Harvard girls about the ancient history. After the nuclear war, the Atlantis either fled back to the Orion constellation or perished, leaving only a few descendants who slowly blended in with the Earthlings and formed the Aryan Special. The Muryans were also traumatized, prompting the descendants to be completely transformed into primitive people. Even though these two powerful ethnics disappeared for no reason just like that, the disaster that it caused was still there. The ‘doors’ that appeared in the nuclear war slowly expanded into a complete ‘world’, dividing the Earth into fragments.

It was only until a powerful civilization or god had arisen that it separated many of the ‘worlds’ that had been mixed together. However, since the cause of ruins had already given rise to the Muryans and Atlantians, the blood of their descendants would be able to trigger the re-emergence of the ‘World’s Gate’ when a certain time and space was aligned together…”

“Oh, this conjecture is too twisted and bizarre, but fascinating at the same time. Sheila, it’s a waste that the three of you didn’t go to write a mythical story book.”

“Don’t be so rush to mock us, Lisheng. Our conjecture is not over yet. the wall of light yesterday surrounding the Pacific Ocean is the barrier separating two ‘worlds’. Its sudden appearance meant that the ‘door’ would gradually expand into an entire ‘foreign world’. At the same time, the new ‘World’s Gate’ will appear one after another until the number reaches 1000 as mentioned in the Mayan mythology. We’ve calculated before, the total area of ​​land and sea on Earth is about 510 million square meters. If it’s embedded into 1000 ‘foreign worlds’, it’d be roughly divided into 1000 pieces of area that has the size of 510,000 square kilometers if it’s counted by probability. If we continue to divide further more, the Earth’s ocean area is about 361 million square kilometers, accounting for 71% of the total global surface area while the land area is about 149 million square kilometers, accounting for 29% of the total global surface area. In other words, there are a total of 710 foreign worlds in the sea and 290 on land. By that time, even though the foreign world cannot be said as commonly found everywhere, it would no longer be as valuable as before. I’ve finished already, Lisheng. You can voice your opinion now.”

Now that Sheila let Zhang Lisheng speak, the young man became silent instead. After a while, he finally sighed and said, “There’s a saying of ‘Colossal World’ in Chinese mythology. ‘The Century’ epic written by an ancient God called Gaia in Shrimp World No. 2 has also mentioned this ‘Colossal World’ before. Looking from a deeper perspective, it is similar to the final conclusion of your conjecture. With this conclusion, combining with the Mayan mythology and the various words and deeds carried out by Tubalin, adding on the mysterious carvings on the Amazonian cannibal tribes’ totem poles, even though there are still many unexplained points in your conjecture, the general direction should be right. Especially yesterday when I was witnessing that red light wall that suddenly appeared in the sea route leading to Shrimp B1 Island from the New York beach, there was a crack in the red light wall and it was getting bigger too… From the perspective of physics, the Earth is a planet, but from the perspective of ‘mysticism’, we live on a never-broken toy imposition’. The only thing I want to say now is that all of this is really f*cked up!”

“Don’t worry, baby! Judging from the speed of the World’s Gate’s expansion and the emergence of the foreign worlds, it would most likely take several dozens, or even hundreds, of years of evolution for us to reach the stage of the Colossal World that you said…” When Tina saw his agitated expression, she grabbed his hand and comforted him gently.

“I’m not as optimistic as you are, Tina.” Zhang Lisheng took a deep breath and calmed down before saying with a wry smile. “We have an old saying in China that says ‘a little crack will collapse an entire dyke’. It means that as long as there’s only a small tiny crack on the dyke that is blocking the raging river, it’ll be shattered eventually by the water. In this process, the expansion of the tiny hole will increase exponentially.”

When the three girls heard this sentence, they became stiff and silent. the room was suddenly filled with a dead silence.
