Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 931
Chapter 931: The Origin of the Turan Civilization
Were there any carbon-based creatures in the world that could directly devour large amounts of metal elements?
The Earth in the 22nd century did not seem to have any.
However, similar records could be found in myths and legends.
Meng Chao remembered that during the Earth Open Day event organized by Blue Home, he had once read several Earth classics that were treasured in the Dragon City library.
On them were records of the Chi You Tribe in ancient times.
It was said that the Chi You Tribe “spoke the Beastman language, had copper heads and iron foreheads, and ate sand and stones.”
It was also said that Chi You himself “ate iron and stones, had a human body and ox hooves, had four eyes and six hands, had ears and temples that were like swords and halberds, and had horns on his head.”
These descriptions were very consistent with the characteristics of the Turan people.
To directly swallow iron and sand as well as grow metal heads and limbs was obviously too exaggerated.
It was much more reasonable to swallow mandrake fruits that contained a large amount of metal components and store the liquid metal in one’s body before activating it during battle.
The legends of the Chi You Tribe had too many bizarre and absurd details, though.
If the people on Earth really were not the original carbon-based intelligent race on Earth and did not evolve naturally, but the Ancients and mother from the Other World were…
At the very least, it was the interference of the Ancients and Mothers that created the new species on Earth.
In that case, could the existence of the Chi You Tribe really be true?
Furthermore, could they be inextricably linked to the Turan civilization from the Other World?
This was not something that Meng Chao had thought of on a whim.
He had been pondering this question for a long time.
Because as the memory fragments of his previous life gradually became clearer, he suddenly realized that many intelligent life forms from the Other World had the same effect as the ancient myths and folk legends on Earth.
Such as elves.
Such as dwarves.
Such as skeleton soldiers and blood-sucking demons.
Such as giant dragons with huge wings that could manipulate metal elements, such as giant lizards.
Similar things could be found in the myths and legends of various regions on Earth.
Including the concepts of extraordinary humans, awakening, and cultivation in Dragon City, many similar records had been left in the long history of the ancient Eastern civilization.
As a result, when the transmigrators built their cultivation system, they unconsciously drew nutrients from history and used many ancient words and terms.
Speaking of words and terms, Meng Chao discovered that the languages of the Other World—whether it was the Turan language used by the advanced orcs, the language of Holy Light used by the land of eternal light, or the even colder Great Northern Land and the Great Rift Valley… the language of Frost and Abyss used was very similar to the languages on Earth.
The specific words and pronunciation were, of course, different.
However, there were no essential differences in the entire language system.
With the extraordinary humans’developed analytical and simulation abilities, as well as their ability to control the muscles in their throats and tongues, after ten days to half a month of surprise training, they could pretty much speak the language.
On the two habitable planets that spanned across the Milky Way and were billions of light years away, the language framework of the intelligent creatures was exactly the same.
This couldn’t be a coincidence.
Meng Chao only thought of three possibilities.
Either, when Earth was first discovered, the Ancients or mother did not just project carbon-based intelligent life such as humans onto Earth.
Instead, they put in a variety of carbon-based intelligent life, including ‘Elves, orcs, and Dwarves’.
They also had them carry out a “poison worm-raising” survival competition on earth to see which carbon-based intelligent life could best adapt to Earth’s ecosystem.
Elves, orcs, and dwarves all had powerful innate skills.
But they all had a fatal problem.
The energy consumption was too high.
They had to devour a large amount of high-energy food that contained psionic energy in order to maintain a strong body and long life.
Throwing them to Earth was the same as throwing a Tyrannosaurus rex into the desert.
No matter how fierce the Tyrannosaurus rex was, it would only lead to death.
In the end, it was relatively mediocre in every aspect, but it was also relatively comprehensive. Most importantly, it was a human that had extremely low energy consumption and was able to survive tenaciously in the deserted spiritual desert like Earth, it won the final victory of the survival competition.
The second possibility.
In the beginning, there was no such thing as a “Human”.
There were only elves, orcs, dwarves, liches, and other humanoid carbon-based intelligent life forms.
However, on Earth, where resources were scarce and spiritual energy was even scarcer, the harsh environment forced them to continuously evolve.
They gave up their long lives, solid bones, strong muscles, and over-developed ability to release brainwaves and manipulate souls.
In the end, they evolved into modern earthlings who only retained basic functions and reduced their energy consumption to the limit.
Meng Chao was still more inclined to this possibility.
After all, with the people of Dragon City transmigrating back to the Other World and being nourished by abundant spirit energy, as well as hearing the ancient ruins’ summon, many people once again obtained incredible power.
“The language of the beastmen, the head of bronze and the forehead of iron” and the like could also be fully realized by extraordinary individuals who had gone through cultivation.
This meant that the difference between the Earthlings and the natives of the Other World was not as great as many fundamentalists imagined.
The power that the natives of the Other World could control.
The earthlings could also control.
However, under the situation where the Earthlings were extremely lacking in resources and psionic power, the modern science edifice that they built by relying on their own wisdom and will might not be something that all the natives of the Other World could climb up.
The third possibility was that the people of Dragon City were not the first batch of people who had transmigrated from Earth to the Other World.
Perhaps, there had long been more than one complicated wormhole between Earth and the Other World.
The natives of the Other World had long transmigrated through the wormhole to Earth in history and became the main characters of myths and legends.
Of course, it was also very likely that the people of Earth had transmigrated to the Other World thousands of years ago, injecting fresh blood into the culture, traditions, customs, and even the power system here.
The transmigrator might not be a person.
It might even be a city, a country, or even a continent.
In the ancient books on Earth, there were often records of a city or even a civilization mysteriously disappearing.
For example, the ancient Loulan kingdom that had disappeared.
Or, even more famous, the Lost Atlantis.
It was said that this mysterious continent known as the “Great Western continent” had already sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
However, who knew if the Loulan ancient kingdom or Atlantis had long ago crossed over to the Other World and merged with the indigenous civilization there?
In short, Meng Chao was certain.
Regardless of whether it was the advanced orcs or other intelligent life forms from the Other World, they were not miracles of natural evolution, but products of genetic manipulation.
Clearly, no matter how miraculous nature was, it was impossible for such intelligent life forms to evolve naturally… half man, half bull, half man, half horse, half man, half wild boar, half man, half stupid elephant.
No, it was not just the Turan themselves.
There was also the mandala tree that supported the entire Turan civilization. Meng Chao was also certain that it was definitely not natural evolution, but the crystallization of genetic engineering.
Plants that evolved naturally could not bear fruitful fruits that were rich in nutrients and psionic energy every season.
Nor could they dig their roots hundreds of meters deep into the ground to absorb the metal elements in the mineral vein.
It was even more impossible to possess such strong vitality and reproductive ability, occupying and molding the entire ecosystem of Tu Lanze.
Meng Chao’s alma mater, Dragon City Agricultural University, was using genetic technology to create similar plants.
It was hoped that the roots could pierce deep into the underground spiritual vein and mineral deposits, automatically absorbing resources, and transforming them into nutrients that could be directly absorbed by the human body.
However, with the current genetic technology in Dragon City, it was still too early to develop a magical plant similar to the mandala tree.
Meng Chao did not think that the Turan civilization in the clan era had genetic technology that surpassed Dragon City.
The mandrake tree and the advanced orcs should have the same creator.
The former was created to provide a solid material guarantee for the latter.
Then, the question arose.
Why did the ‘creator’modify the mandala tree to look like this?
That’s right, the mandala tree was full of treasures. Relying on a single crop, it could almost support the entire civilization.
But why did he arrange for a few years to usher in a flowering period, during which it would no longer bear fruit, not even one? Was It so extreme?
Wouldn’t it be better if it bloomed once a year, bloomed half a year, and bore fruit half a year?
If that was the case, the high-level orcs would surely sound a warning bell in their minds, knowing that they couldn’t completely rely on the mandala tree as their only source of food.
They could also understand the principle of saving, saving, and living within one’s means.
Of course, the population of the high-level orcs could also be controlled to an appropriate degree, not exceeding the supply limit of the mandala fruit.
But it happened to bear fruits for more than ten years, or even decades, and then bloom for more than ten years, or even decades..
Meng Chao could even imagine with his toes that in the ten years or even decades when the mandala tree bore a large number of fruits, the high-level orcs would certainly multiply crazily and squander extravagantly. There was no concept of population control at all.
When the mandala flower bloomed and there was no harvest for more than ten years, or even decades, they would be faced with countless hungry mouths to feed, and countless muscles that only knew how to fight other than eating and breeding.
How could they solve their problems?
War was the only solution!
“Since the creator was able to create such a magical plant as the mandala tree, it was impossible that he did not know what kind of influence the characteristics of the mandala tree would bring to the civilization it supported.
“So, the creator did it on purpose?
“He deliberately created a barbaric race that would go berserk and wage war every few years in such a way
“Who was the creator of the mandala tree and the Turan civilization, and why did they do it?
“Is it really as Mother 1 said, the shattered Mother 2 that was bombarded by space-based orbital weapons and the remaining fragment of Mother 2?”
Meng Chao vaguely felt that as long as he figured out the origins of the mandrake tree and the Turan civilization, he would be able to find the truth of the war between the two worlds.
He would be able to find out the truth behind the war between the two worlds.
There would be hope to prevent the end of the world and the destruction of dragon city by taking drastic measures.
