Chapter 151: Chapter 101 The True Reason Behind the Downfall of Dawn City! It’s Not a Natural Disaster! It’s Man-Made! Child of the Stars!_2
"After all, in the view of the people on the Ruins Star at that time, the Empire’s existence was still in question."
"In the early days of the Steel Dynasty, everything thrived and prospered. But the good times didn’t last long, and soon after, the upper echelons of the Steel Dynasty initiated a project named ’Dust,’ starting a grand exploration of the Steel Jungle."
"The most outstanding technology of the Steel Dynasty was the Artificial Body Transformation. Initially, the utilization of this technology by the people of the Steel Dynasty was relatively restrained, not everyone chose to undergo Artificial Body Transformation."
"However, after exploring the Steel Jungle, for some unknown reason, the technology of Artificial Body Transformation suddenly became widespread in the Steel Dynasty. Among the upper echelons of the Steel Dynasty, there was even a person who mechanically transformed all organs except the brain."
"The exploration of the Steel Jungle progressed very slowly, and the elites who ventured deep into the Steel Jungle disappeared without a trace. In order to increase the outcomes of the exploration, the leaders of the Steel Dynasty proposed a new method, which was to mechanically replace even the final organ, the brain, thereby transforming humans into digital lives with uploaded consciousness."
Upload consciousness? Replace the brain as well?
Su Yu found it hard to believe that in doing so, the Mechanical Creation consisting of all organs including the brain fundamentally had no similarity to the previous life made of flesh and blood.
Can this still be considered the same life form?
"Due to this technology, the Steel Dynasty underwent some terrible change, and the entire dynasty perished in a short period of time. The process and reason for the extinction are unknown, only that after the Steel Dynasty’s downfall, the population on the Ruins Star sharply reduced to less than a tenth of the original."
"After thousands of years and exchanges of several ruling powers, the situation on the Ruins Star gradually improved. Later on, the Ghost Empire emerged, and its wanton use of Ghost Energy and radioactive minerals turned the Ruins Star into its current state."
"The Ghost Empire was also the most mysterious and sinful among the three major ruling powers. Its birth process left no trace, and its destruction caused the Ruins Star to become a complete ruin."
"The Ghost Empire entirely abandoned its loyalty to the former Human Empire, establishing itself as an empire. Its ruler, known as the Ghost Emperor, was known for a brutal disposition, and engaged in massive slaughter. The fall of the Ghost Empire is inseparable from this person."
"The current state of the Ruins Star is also single-handedly caused by the Ghost Emperor."
Seeing this, Su Yu also noticed that the administrator’s description of the history of the Ruins Star was about to end, with only a concluding sentence remaining.
"The scholars of Dawn City have also summarized a pattern based on this history: every time human development on the Ruins Star reaches its peak, it suffers a catastrophic disaster."
"And after the disaster ends, there is always a long period of respite for humans to recuperate and reproduce."
"It is as if an invisible force is controlling humanity on the Ruins Star."
"Human numbers should not be too high, nor should they be too low..."
"This pattern has become the best evidence for a small group of scholars in Dawn City who firmly believe that an invisible hand is controlling everything on the Ruins Star."
The words in the administrator’s letter continued.
"Unfortunately, I didn’t believe it at the time, and arrogantly thought that Dawn City could definitely escape that so-called historical cycle, becoming the first power on the Ruins Star in ten thousand years to venture into the Star Sea. The longing for the Star Sea had already deeply embedded into the heart of everyone in Dawn City."
"Even the eight-year-old children in Dawn City sing and recite a ballad called ’Child of the Stars.’"
"The first unmanned exploration ship was thus completed, and was about to launch."
"Until that day..."
Su Yu turned to the last page of the letter; at this point, only a few lines of text remained.
"That day, the young City Lord found me, his expression serious, as if he had discovered something, but he did not elaborate. He just instructed me to quickly lead a team out of Dawn City. Although I didn’t understand, I immediately started on the road with a team and some resources, and I found out that it was not just my team."
"There were many teams fleeing in different directions from Dawn City."
"At the time, I felt anxious and uneasy, but could only flee as instructed by the young City Lord. Because time was short, there weren’t many resources brought along, and I was the only top-level four-star transformed person in the team."
"And just as we escaped not far from Dawn City, meteors descended!"
"Countless fire meteors, bearing fierce flames, turned the entire sky blood-red, as if tearing the sky apart, descending from the heavens, annihilating Dawn City and all the escaping teams in all directions!" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"The reason my team was not destroyed was because of the young City Lord’s timely appearance, who blocked a fire meteor with his own life."
"No... no..."
Su Yu noticed the handwriting of the administrator became a bit shaky at this point, even almost unreadable.
It was clear that when writing this, the administrator was in a poor mental state, perhaps reliving that tragic incident from years ago.
"No... that was not a fire meteor!"
"I... I saw it very clearly! Very clearly! I clearly saw the meteor the young City Lord blocked with his body, within the fiery shell, there was a mechanical sheen shining!"
"That was not a natural disaster, that was not a fire meteor."
"That was a man-made mechanical creation! That was man-made! —"
