Chapter 2005: The Spirit of Resistance (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!!!)

Those mass extinctions were not caused by the Earth itself, not natural disasters, but man-made disasters!

The Celestials made the Earth an extremely cruel trial field. They let the life on Earth continue to undergo a cruel survival of the fittest until they produced life forms that they were satisfied with... But what their satisfaction standards were, no one knew.

Anyway, when they came to Earth for the last time, they felt that the life on Earth still failed to meet their requirements... When the representatives of the Protoss met with them, they did not give any explanation, but just came to Earth in silence!

All the gods were desperate about this.

"You don't understand how powerful those things are at all. Each of them is taller than a mountain!"

There were four of the first group of Celestials to arrive on Earth this time.

The first one was named Jamil. Jamil was the youngest member of the Celestial Ancestors, responsible for monitoring the Earth, and his strength was relatively weak. Unlike other members of the Celestials, Jamil's stature was not as tall as others. He was roughly the same height as the Hulk, which was quite short for a member of the Celestials. But for other creatures, Jamil's ability was still strong enough.

He manipulates the storm and intends to change the earth's climate and put the earth into the next extinction event again!

The second one is called Arishim. He wears red armor and is 600 meters tall!

He controls the ocean currents and makes the ocean currents of the entire earth chaotic. The chaos of ocean currents may bring a series of serious effects. First of all, ocean currents are the main regulators of the thermal environment on the earth's surface. They have a profound impact on the global climate by promoting energy exchange between high and low latitudes of the earth. If the ocean currents are chaotic, it may cause climate anomalies, including changes in temperature and precipitation patterns, which will in turn affect ecosystems and agricultural production.

The circulation system is both independent and closely related to other circulation systems. The atmospheric circulation is closely related to it. The atmospheric circulation will be affected by many aspects such as the rotation of the earth and solar radiation. If one aspect is affected, it will cause an imbalance in the atmospheric circulation, affecting its complex diversity, and the circulations will also be affected.

If the atmospheric circulation stagnates, the marine ecosystem will be affected first. The warm water mass on its surface will completely lose its power to flow, and the cold current at the bottom of the ocean will not be able to circulate. The ocean will not flow and will become water that cannot flow. If the atmospheric circulation stagnates, the ever-changing four seasons may also be changed. Circulation is also an indispensable part of the change of the four seasons. Due to the continuous high temperature and dry weather, forests in Australia caught fire, and there were forest fires at multiple times. After the fires, a large amount of carbon dioxide was produced, which seriously reduced the air quality and even caused haze weather conditions. Europe is also facing a lot of abnormal stormy weather. When winter comes, there will be heavy snowstorms and the temperature will drop rapidly. The precipitation in South America and Africa has also been abnormal. Those who rely on precipitation to maintain their living water are now having difficulty in getting water, and the greenhouse effect has also caused the melting of ice and snow in the Antarctic and the Arctic. If the circulation really collapses completely, the impact on the climate circulation will also be catastrophic. The stability of the circulation is an important link in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem. Once it collapses, it is impossible to predict how much impact it will have and how much change it will cause to the climate.

Secondly, ocean currents have a direct impact on the marine ecosystem. Ocean currents not only affect the distribution of marine life, but also affect the productivity of the ocean. If the ocean currents are chaotic, it may cause changes in the living environment of marine life, affect fishery resources, and then affect human food chains and economic activities, and may even cause large-scale extinction of marine life!

The third group of gods is called Analyst Jimia. He is the leader this time. Just like his code name, he has been to Earth four times and is the group of gods who have come to Earth the most. He has visited other planets that are used as experimental subjects by the group of gods. He is an evaluator. He will evaluate the life on the planet and then report it. It is said that he is the most neutral group of gods. He will not hate or like a certain life form. He will only objectively evaluate the value of these lives and then report it.

The fourth group of gods is called De Fulong, a group of gods who is 610 meters tall and wears blue armor.

He was responsible for adjusting the evolutionary direction of life forms based on the data provided by analyst Jimia.

Then the war began. The gods seemed extremely desperate in the face of their own creations... but they had no choice but to ignore it... After all, the catastrophe was not coming immediately, and an extinction event often lasted for millions to tens of millions of years. Anyway, you are not going to die immediately, so enjoy yourself while you can!

This is a kind of escape, which is useless, but at least it will not make you upset.

Escape is shameful but useful.

But the immortals stood up.

Kai hurriedly asked what the immortals were about. After all, he had only heard of them, but no one knew what immortals were.

"Immortals..." Thoth paused, but still said, "A group of people who are more annoying than the Asgardians, but it is undeniable that they are all very powerful!"

Then Thoth explained what immortals are.

Immortals are not a race. Their origins are very complicated. Some are humans, some are born gods, some are exotic beasts, and some are even flowers, plants and trees.

They are not very united. Anyway, they will not build the so-called divine domain and divine court like other gods. Most of them live alone. They have a special ability, which they call "cultivation"!

The gods actually don't understand this thing very well. After all, the gods are born strong from the moment they are born. Although they will exercise, they will not do the so-called "cultivation".

This thing is too reactionary in the eyes of the gods.

Because the immortals believe that everything in the world can practice, as long as they practice well, they can become immortals!

This is simply a rebellion in the eyes of the gods!

The gods are born sacred, how can they be on an equal footing with those mortals?

The gods are always high above. Logically speaking, their talents are far superior to those mortals, but there are always some geniuses in the world who are unwilling to compromise and want to extend the stage for their talents to the heavens. But their end is extremely miserable.

Laocoon is a wise man in Troy and a priest. It was he who opposed the transportation of the Trojan Horse into Troy as a trophy. Even though Laocoön didn't know that the Trojan horse was full of Greek soldiers, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong. However, his advice was not adopted, and the outcome was predictable. Troy was captured. Laocoön also offended Apollo and Athena because he shouted that the Trojan horse was a fraud. Because these two gods wanted to ensure that the Trojan horse could enter Troy smoothly. So Athena released poisonous snakes to bite Laocoön and his two sons to death.

The human girl Alesin was said to have better weaving skills than the goddess Athena, who was best at imitation. After hearing this, Athena transformed herself into an old woman and came to the human world to compete with her. Athena finally lost. But the girl was not reconciled. Athena turned the poor girl Alesin into a spider and made her lie on her stomach and weave webs all day long.

Marsyas was originally just an ordinary person, but one day he picked up a magical flute. This flute was thrown away and cursed by Athena. Although Marsyas could play moving music with it, even Apollo wanted to compete with him with his harp. They competed for two rounds in a row, but they were evenly matched. In the last round, Apollo had a trick and wanted to play the instrument upside down. The harp can be played upside down, but how can the flute? So Marsyas lost. His ending was very tragic. He was hung upside down on a tree by Apollo and skinned alive.

Poet Thamyris, this poet openly challenged the Muses at the poetry conference. Muses are the gods in charge of poetry and prose, so naturally they cannot lose. Not only did the poet lose in the end, but he was also punished to be blind.

The three Siren sisters, these three sisters were originally the three daughters of the river god, with beautiful voices. But because they were proud of their talents, they challenged the Muses at a concert. Muses are also the gods who dominate music, so naturally they cannot lose. The three sisters lost and were finally plucked of their wings by the nine Muses. These wings were later inserted into the body of the goddess Muses. The three Siren sisters became sea monsters that used beautiful songs to lure sailors to the bottom of the sea.

These are all people who want to challenge the gods, but these people were treated so cruelly for just a slight challenge to the gods.

So what are the immortals doing?

They want everything to be upgraded and equal to the gods.

This is such a blasphemy, lowly mortals, ignorant beasts, mediocre stones, and even plants and trees that can be seen everywhere, these can be equal to the gods, how is this possible?

Unfortunately... these immortals are super good at fighting!

Although they all live alone and don't like to gather together, it is reasonable to break through one by one, but one immortal can beat a group of gods!

There is no way to start a fight.

Fortunately, immortals generally don't like to meddle in other people's business. They think that these gods and mortals in the West are all alien races, and they think they are all satisfied and don't want to interact with them. And the gods in the West like to provoke them... To be honest, the immortals are very annoyed.

The West has no appeal to them.

So they simply cut off the passage between the East and the West and ignored the gods in the West.

The gods are quite lucky. After all, if so many big brothers come by accident... they can't handle it.

But the gods still hate the immortals, even if they can't beat them. They don't allow the immortals' ideas to spread... What if mortals start to learn... Isn't that the end?

Immortals don't have consistent appearance features.

Some are handsome and beautiful, as if they came out of a dream.

Some wear animal skins, with disheveled hair, and look like wild people.

Some have animal heads and are covered with the characteristics of wild beasts.

Some are ethereal and beautiful, and don't even have a fixed form.

Very messy.

They call themselves immortals... Their highest goal is to become immortals!

According to them, immortals are beings that transcend everything, are not bound by any rules, can live forever, and have unparalleled magical powers.

It is said that when the immortals first saw the Celestial Gods, they thought that the Celestial Gods were what they called immortals.

Because the Celestial Gods completely met all their expectations.

Until they saw that the Celestial Gods were planning to exterminate life on Earth.

Then the immortals began to resist.

All the immortals in the East united together and went to war against the Celestial Gods.

This practice was simply incomprehensible to the gods. You want to become immortals, and now that the immortals have come, you don't surrender, but instead you attack them in groups?

What's the logic behind this?

Moreover, the gods are their creators, and the judgments they impose are inviolable by the Holy Spirit!

We just have to wait obediently for the judgment to come, but you actually resisted?

This is the difference between East and West.

In their concept, there is no other way for God to send punishment except prayer.

For example, in many myths, the gods sent a great flood, and only those chosen by the gods could leave by boat. But what about Eastern mythology? When the flood comes, we will control the flood!

In Western mythology, fire is given by God; in Greek mythology, fire is stolen by Prometheus; and in Chinese mythology, fire is made by drilling wood with perseverance and friction! This is the difference. The Chinese use such stories to warn future generations that only by fighting against nature can you get everything you want! When facing the apocalyptic flood, Western mythology talks about taking shelter in Noah's Ark. There is a movie called "2012" based on this myth. But in Chinese mythology, it is the ancestors who defeated the flood. Look, it is still a struggle, a struggle against disaster! "The West chose passive confrontation, while the East chose to stay at home three times and finally defeated the flood. Don't think that the flood I mentioned is far away from everyone. This epidemic is a flood sweeping the world. You have to know There was a ship in which 100,000 people died. If you read Chinese mythology carefully, you will find our story incredible. Regardless of the storyline, the cultural core expressed in our mythology must contain these two words: resistance. !

To be honest, when I was a kid, I always thought there were two people who were stupid. The first one was Yu Gong, who actually wanted to move the mountain in front of his door, and the second one was Kua Fu, because he thought the weather was hot. , he wanted to pick off the sun, but he failed to catch up with it, and he was exhausted instead. At that time, I was thinking, why do we worship such stupid people as idols? Later, I went back to the village to visit relatives and found that the small dirt roads in the village had been built into asphalt roads. Then I realized that the Chinese used the spirit of Foolish Old Man to move mountains to build roads in every remote village so that the children there could go to the village. If you can afford to go to school, the people there will become richer and richer. As the saying goes, descendants have endless shortages. The descendants of Yu Gong finally moved away the mountains in front of us in our generation.

Kuafu failed in shooting the sun, but Hou Yi succeeded in shooting the sun! These two myths about the sun go one after another, one failure and one success. What our ancestors took great pains to tell us is: you can lose, but you must never surrender.

Chinese people have grown up listening to such myths and stories. The spirit of courage to fight has become our genetic gene. We may not realize it because it is subtle, but we will be as strong as our ancestors. Therefore, now it is much easier to understand when we think about the Chinese people’s stubborn spirit of not admitting defeat. This is why we can still stand firm after more than 5,000 years of inheritance. In Western mythology, the sun is the source of all things, and it is also the supreme existence. Like the sun god Apollo, like the god Ra in Egyptian mythology, one after another splendid palaces and one magnificent pyramid after another are all human beings. It was built. Facing those tall and glorious buildings, who can still have the heart to resist?

If you are careful enough, you will find that all Chinese myths teach you to fight. A little girl drowned in the sea. She turned into a bird called Jingwei and wanted to fill up the sea. This is resistance. , a man was beheaded for challenging the power of the Emperor of Heaven, but he did not die, but wielded an ax Continue to struggle, punishing the sky and dancing, and the strong will is always there. This is also a struggle. What will happen if the sky collapses, what will happen if you refine the stone to mend the sky, and what will happen if the universe is chaotic. When the world is created, Laozi said in the "Tao Te Ching", "The heaven and the earth are not benevolent, and all things are "Being a rotten dog" means that if you want to survive, you have to rely on yourself, not on the sky. This sounds crueler than the so-called "God so loved the world" in the West, but it is very realistic.

In short, the gods cannot understand the thoughts of the immortals at all. Facing the judgment of the gods, they just wanted to lie down, but the immortals directly came out to resist! Even if the God Group is the immortal they are pursuing!
