Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From
Chapter 2: Death in the crowd
"Invasion?" The child seemed to be confused about the meaning of the word. After a while, he nodded his head; "But why invade?"
He seemed to really not understand. The man couldn't figure out whether it was because the child was still young or because the people of this civilization had some consensus that was different from his common sense, so he could only shake his head and say hoarsely;
"There are many reasons. Expanding the territory, developing technology, collecting slaves, or using them as soldiers in the army. These are all possible, but I'm afraid we are not qualified to know."
"I don't understand this, but what will they do after they occupy it?"
The child asked the most pointed question, and the man choked, because if what the child said was true, the civilization that was higher than this planet was destroying and invading without any scruples in such a manner, and didn't even send out a signal in advance, which could only mean that the other party's basic policy towards this planet was based on malice.
Since they didn't destroy us directly, the future of this planet is clear to see: enslavement.
The world before him was just a civilization that was constantly fighting on a planet. In that civilization, there was peace and war, and there were also human speculations and fantasies about the starry sky, but after all, it was not a civilization that truly stepped into the universe. When facing the invasion of cosmic civilization, he could not give the most reasonable explanation.
If humans found this planet, they might have made peaceful communication a prerequisite. After all, when there was no opportunity for communication, our people had already sent out "Travelers" and "Voice of the Earth", and our morality had already developed.
Although this is an optimistic imagination, as a human being he more or less hopes that this will be a good development.
But if it is in the universe, even considering the fundamental physiological differences and different life structures, there are aliens who would choose aggression as the main theme, which is also very normal.
The invaded people did nothing wrong, they just were seen.
"I don't know..." But when facing the child, the man stammered and didn't say it.
There was no need to talk about this, at least not now. He hadn't figured out the situation in this world yet, and he couldn't tell a child, "We're going to be slaves in a month." He even felt guilty about it.
The man coughed dryly and suddenly said awkwardly;
"I'm sorry, but do you have any water?"
"Have!"
The child couldn't help but smile and nodded vigorously. The man was embarrassed because, in this case, asking for water should be regarded as asking for important supplies, but the child was very happy that the man made such a request because it showed that the man intended to survive.
......
"The development of civilization has taken a different path to modern standards, but the specifications of weapons are at medieval standards, while the quality of life and cultural environment can also be called modern standards. What is wrong with this world? This kind of bias is a bit outrageous, and they can't say anything about the technological progress of their own country. The literacy rate is quite high, but the quality of education is very poor..."
"And the 'protector' is King Muguru. I've never heard of a biological weapon taller than a mountain, let alone a tribe. How the hell can they walk properly?"
Because this is a planet on the verge of becoming an enslaved planet, Xia Long does not intend to blend into the environment to conceal his uniqueness, but instead keeps asking questions.
Not only for children, but also for some wandering adults. Although these questions cannot help him solve the problem, they can at least help him understand the current situation more effectively.
But the news he got completely shattered Xia Long's cognition. He never expected that the development trajectory of the people here would be so different from that of humans. Their appearance already reflected the physiological differences from humans, and their technological development was even more...how to put it.
It is a bit close to nature, with low levels of war and competition, and learning is closer to liberal arts than science, which is simply puzzling. The only thing worth praising is that they have achieved unification, and the people on earth are a community of shared destiny.
Of course, these are just guesses and assumptions he made based on the scenes he saw, and they cannot actually be fully applied to the world before his eyes.
If they were close to nature, the law of the jungle and ferocity would be their main theme. However, this group of guys, who were similar to the concept of "elves" in human literature, were indeed much stronger than humans in terms of physique, but they did not show the bravery and fighting ability they should have.
They are so excessively kind that they are more like rhinos and rhino birds in literature, following a parasitic lifestyle than the prey of the strong on tiger and wolf archers - although they are generally elegant elven archers.
Their main 'defense' is the guy called King Mulgrew, who is described as "Mulgrew, taller than the mountains, your skin flows with the warmth of the sun, your spikes flow with the sharpness of the cold stars, your mouth lingers on the leaves on the highest mountain tops, and your feet stir up dust in the distance of the earth..."
In short, it is a description that sounds like a song. We can know that this guy is at least tens of meters tall, and that is the most outrageous thing.
This guy is actually a vegetarian! He also eats minerals. His height is about 40 to 50 meters, according to the child. He is a gentle baby Godzilla who can communicate.
What is this? It's not just time travel, are even the laws of the universe different?!
However, this group of Godzillas is indeed powerful. In this agricultural age or even in Xialong's modern times, it would be an incredible natural disaster if heavy firepower was not deployed. Even because of the specificity of the universe, it is impossible to determine the extent of heavy firepower and the degree of subsequent disasters.
And it is this level of monster, even though it is only a juvenile...
Walking out of the city, the dark clouds in the sky gradually moved away. Outside the city were large groups of temporary houses and tents, where many living people lived.
It was exactly noon now. Most people were queuing up in front of large tents, waiting for people with the same green skin to serve them porridge. There were also people holding knives and weapons standing by and scolding the team from time to time.
Overall, they were very disciplined, which surprised Xia Long a little.
Although it can be felt that people's mood is not very high, but compared with the ruined city, it is much better here. Looking around at the people who are drinking porridge with their families, their faces may be depressed or worried, but at least they still have a yearning for life and are a little angry.
But there are too few people.
There are too few people for this city.
Xia Long slowly looked around. This group of people were smiling, swallowing food with a small flame in their arms. However, they were too uniform and healthy. There was not a single disabled person. All the people gathered here were intact and healthy.
He didn't know how big the city was. The children didn't know, and some adults could hardly tell. When asked, they would just vaguely say "at least tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, right?" in a tone that even they themselves were unsure.
But, just look at it from his perspective.
There are at least a million people in a city like this.
Yes, millions, that's what he thought.
And the number of tents... is only a few hundred. Although this is not the only gathering place, how many people survived this attack?
They took bowls, filled them with meat porridge mixed with oil, and drank it somewhere. Then Xia Long told the child that he wanted to see the burial place of King Mugru. The child looked a little sad after hearing this request, but agreed immediately.
King Mulgrew's body had not been dealt with yet when Xia Long and his companions walked out of the city. They found that this huge beast was surprisingly amiable. The song said that his skin was as warm as the sun and his spikes were as sharp as cold stars, and it was not an exaggeration.
His skin has thick and rough fur, but it has a grass-green color like the woods. His abdomen is yellowish and strong, and especially his head has a huge and majestic horn. With a kind face like a dinosaur with its eyes closed, his huge body lies in the mountains and woods, but there is no sense of threat from the terrifying giant creature. It is like a sculpture surrounded by lush forests.
When they left, there were still people crying beside King Muguru, unwilling to leave. They cried on and around King Muguru as if they were mourning their dead relatives.
The child also sobbed quietly. Xialong was not an indigenous resident and could not understand their special feelings for King Muguru. After asking, they learned that the dead King Muguru's body would be petrified and become mountains. This process could take as short as a few days or as long as several months. This group of people came to accompany King Muguru.
In the war three days ago, King Mugru roared loudly at the sky, struggled to stand up from the ground and walked towards the city, and then was hit by a light that seemed like a punishment from God. His huge body fell to the ground with a bang. When he died, some people said that King Mugru was wailing towards the city. That was the last sound heard by the people who died in the city that was hit by the air raid, and King Mugru also fell into a deep sleep in this forest.
Instant death.
——Everything that transcends reality is beyond reality.
Xia Long is a time traveler, at least for now, this should be understood correctly. But where exactly did he travel to? Is this a science fiction novel, a future world, or a special effects film from somewhere?
However, he currently has neither a system nor any other golden fingers. Faced with a scene that is so different from common sense, he really can't say that he is a time traveler and can therefore kill everyone. Under the current circumstances, he can't even imagine the scene of himself "being able to participate in such an event" in the future.
