Chapter 685 The Origin of the Return Sect

At the last moment of the mass extinction 10,000 years ago, the safety devices of some of the seeds of life suddenly activated, forcing the out-of-control eldest son to sleep. As a result, a small number of races in this universe were able to survive. The residents of the planet Horleta are one of the survivors - although Hao Ren has not seen more survivors, he believes that there must be planets like Horleta that have survived the Firstborn Disaster, but Hidden in some corners of the universe, just waiting to be discovered.

However, it was not the warning mechanism of the seed or the accidental self-rescue operation of the Magic Emperor that activated the safety lock of the Seed of Life back then. Instead, it was the giant in front of him and some of his brothers and sisters - it was these people who were gnashing their teeth in their arms. The hateful guardians who just watched their mothers being killed by mortals. They activated a security protocol at the Seed of Life Control Center in the center of the universe, and only then did they protect a small portion of mortal civilization.

In the eyes of the guardians, the phenomenon of "mortal races" is the culprit that led to their mother's death. They no longer believe in the loyalty and morality of any mortal species, and are unwilling to distinguish between good and bad mortals. This kind of thinking It's what causes all the Guardians to fall into madness and mutation. But the goddess's last order forced some of the guardians to maintain their sanity - even if their minds were filled with anger and grief, they still regarded the mother's order as the first rule. That's why Hao Ren still maintained this The giant of sanity survives.

This is the truth 10,000 years ago. It is completely different from the initial guess, and it is so unexpected that people are stunned.

"No mortal species is worth saving," the giant lowered his head, and his voice seemed to come from the chest, "but this is the last instruction of the mother before she died, and we must execute it unconditionally. So we activated the safety lock, After the founding star was pushed into the dark realm by the Big Bang, the seeds of life throughout the universe and their first-generation products entered a sealed state. Our crazy brothers fell asleep like this, but at that time, there was not much left in this universe. Life remains.”

Hao Ren guessed that "the founding star was pushed into the dark realm by the big explosion" should refer to the explosion of the red nova, which was the moment when the goddess of creation was completely killed by the traitors. All timelines are now aligned.

"What happens after that?" Vivian looked at the giant curiously, "You... the guardians who stay sane, how do you live after that?"

"We were separated," the giant shook his head. "Some of the guardians wanted to find the remains of their mother. They set off to find the dark realm. There was no news after that. Some of them slept in every corner of the universe and were buried in this way. Myself. My mother is gone, most of my compatriots have also mutated, and the remaining guardians realize that they have lost the meaning of their existence, so we fell apart..."

The giant slowly talked about the last moments of those guardians, and also mentioned the reason why he came to Horleta. After saying goodbye to his brothers and sisters, he drifted aimlessly in the universe driving a spaceship that was severely damaged in the war, and experienced a thousand-year wandering. He originally thought about dying wandering like this, and waiting for the spacecraft to completely lose control to find a star to end his life - he believed that many guardians who were as awake as himself should also choose this path. But just as he was about to reach the end of his wandering, he discovered a planet: Horleta.

The giant realized that when the safety device of the Seed of Life was activated, those who were protected were not only the "innocents" who did not know what happened, but also those rebellious comrades who refused to provide support to his mother, so he changed made his own plan.

Since all the enemies that day were not dead, it was necessary to continue taking revenge.

"When I discovered this planet, the entire world had not yet recovered from the blood disaster." The giant's mood seemed to have calmed down a bit. He talked about his recent arrival in Horleta without emotion. "Everywhere can be found. We saw the remains of the tentacles of the original guardians and the destroyed human kingdom, but even so, there are still many mortals surviving in the world. They survived between the ruins and the wilderness, and civilization has regressed to an almost primitive era, but no matter what Said that they are still alive, and they are still shamelessly covering up the sins of the past - I have been observing in orbit for several years, watching them burn the religious scriptures of the past, instill distorted history into newborns, and continue to eliminate the remaining remnants of society. The "reflective elements" even completely sealed up the memory of the goddess of creation, as if doing so could wash away the sins on their bodies. They lived a trembling and sinful life, while I lurked under the cover of a meteorite impact. I need time to repair the weapons on the spacecraft and treat my injuries..."

"This has been dormant for thousands of years," Hao Ren couldn't help but say, "You have witnessed the reconstruction of the Horleta civilization with your own eyes."

"I have witnessed a lot of things with my own eyes," the giant said with a sense of contradiction in his voice, "Yes, this is the source of my hesitation. I did not expect that they would regain their belief in the goddess of creation, let alone that they could So many things were restored from the thin innate memory and historical fragments. The original executioners died one by one. The psychological pressure and the curse from the origin of the world made those guys who could have lived for many years very short-lived. After their death, they His descendants inherited the world and began to worship the goddess of creation again. I soon discovered that the mortal world was changing faster than I imagined, even so fast that I had no time to take revenge, and an entire era ended."

"So it will be very embarrassing after you repair the spaceship." Hao Ren couldn't help but sigh for the giant. He raised his head and looked at the majestic figure, but he saw endless contradictions, entanglements, confusion and confusion in the god-like majestic figure. This giant is struggling in the shadows of countless pasts, and it is useless to judge anything related to him based on pure good, evil, right and wrong. He was indeed obsessed with destroying the civilization on the planet Horleta, but at the same time he had long given up on this idea in his heart. He spent thousands of years preparing weapons and destruction plans, but these actions were more like pure obsession. Driven by thoughts:

The giant knows that revenge is meaningless, but if he does not do so, he himself will be meaningless.

Lily wanted to break the uncomfortable silence, so she mentioned the return sect: "Did you organize those cultists?"

"I did not take the initiative to organize any sect," the giant shook his head. "They gathered spontaneously. When I first landed on this planet, I slept for a short period of time in order to restore my energy, and during that time, Some humans discovered the cave where I hid my spaceship. The thoughts I leaked in my sleep affected the minds of these humans, and they knew about the Creation Goddess and the Rebellious Son... It even surprised me that they became fanatical returners. I didn't expect that there would be humans who would become as angry as the Guardians after knowing the truth, and would even be willing to do something to their own compatriots. Anyway, their behavior made me feel a little relieved, so I didn't stop them. Later, I even opened part of the structure in the cave for them and their descendants to live in, and I taught them some knowledge so that they can help maintain my base... That's all."

There is no need for the giant to make up lies at this time, so his words have high credibility. It seems that the Giant is indeed the leader behind the Return sect, but more like a symbolic spiritual leader. The Return believers' beliefs arise spontaneously after they come into contact with the Giant's mind. This also explains what happened to the biological transformation between magic and technology of the Returning Cult: Giants should not have the heart to study the biochemical technology of a group of small mortals, so those technologies should have been developed by the Returning Cult in thousands of years. After years of trial and error, its technical level cannot be compared with the giant's battleships and bases.

"Returners once tried to use a scroll to assassinate the Pope." Hao Ren took out the fragment of the divine scroll from his pocket, "This is it. Did you give it to them?"

The giant glanced down: "Indeed, but what I initially gave them were just some raw materials. This material was made on a satellite of the founding star and was blessed by the mother. Those who returned used these ancient materials The materials are used to make holy objects, but I don’t know the specific usage. I don’t pay attention to these things.”

Hao Ren looked at the scroll fragment in his hand: "No wonder this thing has divinity..."
