The endless virtual time without beginning or end stores countless histories that have been 'abandoned' and have no future or hope for human beings. The world where the tree of life revived and caused the destruction of civilization is one of them.
The concepts of day and night are meaningless on the earth where the atmosphere is so thin that it is almost non-existent. Without the scattering phenomenon caused by the atmosphere, darkness has become the eternal background color of the sky. The daytime phenomenon has completely become history, and now there will be In this dark and dark sky, apart from the starlight that has been emitted from thousands or tens of thousands of years across the long river of time and traveled to the earth from the distant past, there is only the starlight that was emitted by the star closest to the earth eight minutes ago. The light shines brightly.
Siegfried lay sprawled on the deserted land, looking up at the starry sky that humans had been looking at since 300,000 years ago or even longer. He thought of the distant past for no reason, when human civilization had not been as severely affected as it is now. "The Great Tribulation of the Tree of Life" was a sentence she read in a science fiction magazine when she was still an ordinary student enjoying all the conveniences brought by human civilization.
"Human civilization ultimately failed to pick up the gem discovered by that primitive man 300,000 years ago..."
Before civilization finally bent down to pick up the gem called the mystery of the universe, it perished due to a series of inexplicable disasters that followed one after another.
Even in the face of the Tree of Life, which has transformed most of the earth's ecosystem and is completely illogical and unreasonable, this civilization has tried to conquer it. Under the torrent of cold iron-blooded steel and the firepower falling from the sky, it has demonized plants and the Tree of Life. The defense line composed of modified mimic servants is often vulnerable, and can only rely on numerical superiority to stabilize the situation. With the power brought by science and technology, human civilization has been able to overturn the disadvantage in this supernatural disaster. return.
At that time, almost everyone was optimistic about the future trend of the war. It is true that demonized plants and mimic servants are indeed very scary to unarmed ordinary people, and the roots and branches of the tree of life can even pull people into pieces alive. There are mummies, but the strength of human beings has never been measured by individual strength. We explore the universe and nature, establish speculations and hypotheses, and confirm or falsify them through empirical research, and transform this knowledge into real technology. and tools, gradually realizing generalization, miniaturization, and popularization into human civilized society. This power called science is the powerful essence of human civilization.
It was during that period that some scholars speculated that the Tree of Life had undergone at least two transformations before becoming aggressive to humans based on some samples of demonized plants and mimic servants. The first transformation was establishing a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. Later, the Tree of Life transformed the first plants through root symbiosis, and thereby began to slowly and deliberately invade the earth's ecosystem. The second transformation was when the Tree of Life took root near the core of the earth and began to extract geothermal heat. Anomalies were discovered by major secret societies, research institutions, and observation institutions in human society. The Tree of Life was no longer hidden and emerged from the ground.
Moreover, some scholars have also discovered that since the Tree of Life officially launched an attack on human civilization and launched attacks on major cities through modified demonic plants and mimic servants, evolution seems to have fallen into a state of evolutionary stagnation, especially as human organizations have surged. When the torrent of steel bombards the demonized plants and mimic servants with firepower enough to turn the ground over and plow several layers, the troops sent to the battlefield by the Tree of Life become more and more cheap and cannon fodder - basically all the demonized plants and mimetic servants Before the torrent of steel enters their attack range, the mimetic servants will reach their position with frenzied fire reconnaissance and wash the ground several times. Even if they can survive until the end of the fire reconnaissance, most of the demonized plants and mimic servants will only have half of them left. His life was on the line, and before he could even take a breath (if even the demonized plants had to take a breath), the torrent of steel that followed was crushing him with a thunderous roar.
Since then, there have been no changes in the Tree of Life for a long time. Judging from the changes in the Tree of Life and its derivatives, demonized plants and mimic servants also require certain resources to produce, but their combat effectiveness is higher than that of humans. Today's technology is really limited. If you want to delay the counterattack of human civilization, the Tree of Life must invest more energy and nutrients to catalyze a sufficient number of troops. It will remain in this stage for a long time and will not undergo transformation again. This is why that This was one of the reasons why everyone was optimistic about the direction of the war.
But there is one thing that only Siegfried himself knows - the tree of life has actually undergone its third transformation.
It was precisely because of this third transformation that the earth's core cooled down and humanity perished.
The elimination of the geomagnetic field has caused the earth to lose its original 'protective layer'. Various high-energy rays in the universe are bombarding the earth's surface all the time. The atmosphere has become extremely thin under the influence of the solar wind, and the temperature difference between day and night has reached 10%. To a terrifying degree, the liquid water on the earth is becoming less and less. Siegfried can’t understand why the earth has not evaporated a lot of liquid water, leading to an increase in greenhouse gases and finally turning into a high-temperature and high-pressure celestial body like Venus. Perhaps it is time. It is too short to form that kind of celestial body. It may also be due to the interference of the living tree system that absorbs greenhouse gases. But there is no doubt that there are no non-living tree systems in the current earth environment. The next creature.
Ordinary creatures have long since died from the radiation of high-energy rays, and even those that survive cannot withstand the temperature difference between day and night.
A huge fireball emitting dazzling light gradually rose from the horizon. Siegfried slowly climbed up from the desert sand, tightening his black cloak with a few holes in it. It had been a long time since he last met the strange man. Four or five days had passed, and the weirdo finally took away Siegfried's weapons in a burst of blinding white light, and finally vowed to let her wait for rescue.
Perhaps it was because of the loss of the handy weapon, or maybe it was the words that the weirdo said before leaving that added a touch of hope and fantasy to Siegfried's revenge plan. Siegfried has not gone anywhere these days, neither eating nor drinking. He has been waiting on the sand dune where Wu Ming disappeared, waiting for him to come back as he fulfilled his promise.
But now Siegfried is no longer prepared to wait any longer. Even if the success rate of the plan is further reduced due to the loss of the weapon, she needs to make a break with the Tree of Life.
"Brother Fei! I'm here to return your sword!"
