Report

The great flood was like a magnificent white waterfall, pouring down from the top of the sky, drowning the mountains, rivers, and the earth.

"What a terrifying power."

"In an instant, a world-destroying flood fell."

On the deck, countless merchants, nobles, poor people, and slaves sighed and were shocked.

They were the kindest and most harmonious people. God sent a flood to cleanse the land of sin. Those who were barbaric, tyrannical, sinful, and rude would be drowned in the flood.

On this day, the Great Flood destroyed the world. It was known as the Day of Disaster. It was the last remnant of the Sumerian civilization. Utanapizm led the remaining Sumerians on the ark and boarded Noah's ark to escape from the Great Flood.

In the corner of the empty ship, the Historiographer who was appointed to record the Sumer Civilization paused for a moment. He held a quill in his hand and sat on the deck, still immersed in the great figure of God.

"In our world, the sky is round and the earth is square. Our world was created by God, and it only took seven days. What kind of majestic power is that …"

Akkad's hands were trembling, and his tears were turbid.

He began to use his own ideas to fill in the seven days of God's creation. He picked up the quill and wrote down the last seven days of God's creation in the Sumer Civilization, Genesis:

On the first day, God said, "Let there be light."

Then there was light. God separated light and darkness, calling light day and darkness night.

On the second day, God said, "Let there be air to separate the waters."

Then there was heaven.

On the third day, God said, "Let all the waters in the world gather in one place and expose the dry land."

Then the waters and the dry land were separated. God called the dry land a continent, and the place where the waters gathered an ocean.

On the fourth day, God said, "Let there be light in the sky to distinguish day from night."

Then there was the cycle of the sun and the moon. In this world, there were fifty years of day and fifty years of night.

On the fifth day …

On the sixth day …



On the seventh day, everything in the world was complete. God rested, and on this day, he blessed the first six days.

In the days that followed, people took the Historiographer's imagination as reality. During the Great Flood, it was as if the God of Creation had really narrated the seven days of his creation in front of mortals.

But why would God lower himself and explain in detail to the lowly humans how he created the world?

But people were more willing to believe that the Book of Creation recorded the story of God creating the world in seven days.

In the story, God rested on the seventh day of the creation of the world. People called this legendary day the Day of Rest, the Holy Day. Thus, it became the custom of this land. People would also choose to rest on this day.



Boom!

A great flood fell from the sky.

The buildings collapsed like a wooden fortress, and the footprints of the Sumer civilization were washed into the ocean.

Xu Zhi scrubbed for a long time. After making sure that he didn't miss anything, he stopped the high-pressure water gun and quietly turned off the switch. He put away the high-pressure water gun and put it away in the storeroom, stacking it on a wooden shelf.

In this way, it would be another round of liquidation.

The Insect Apes' endless killing and overbreeding had almost caused the sand table to collapse. Now, every species had one pair left in the sand table. Sooner or later, it would return to the previous ecosystem.

Hopefully, after this time, they would be more vigilant and not be too brutal and barbaric.

The sub-brain said, "Even if we don't destroy them, they will self-destruct, eat and destroy all species, and then self-destruct. When that time comes, the sand table will only suffer a huge loss. It's better to welcome a new life in advance."

Xu Zhi let out a long sigh. "I'm not as weak as you think. I don't need consolation. I just feel a little sad."

The sub-brain continued, "As a Insect Queen, you are the great Creator who has given birth to countless people and species. You should be used to the rise and extinction of countless species. You should not sigh."

The veins on Xu Zhi's head bulged. He corrected it. "I'm a man, not a Insect Queen."

"No need to say more. They are all your spores …" The Insect Nest sub-brain was about to defend its point of view.

"Stop! Anyway, family planning for the Insect Apes is very important. " Xu Zhi immediately interrupted it. He sat on the chair in front of the courtyard and silently nibbled on the peeled fruit he had just peeled. "Tomorrow, I'll go to town and buy two kilograms of fruit. I have stomach cancer, so I have to take care of my stomach."

He picked up the black notebook, which he hadn't done in a long time, and recorded something on it.

"This is the Era of the Behemoths. I originally wanted to call this era the Cretaceous Era, corresponding to the Cretaceous Era of the dinosaurs. It was full of giant animals and beasts. However, since the Sumer people used the Genesis Era to record it, then … I'll call this era the Genesis Era."

On Earth, the era was the End of the Cretaceous Era Mass Extinction. Meteorites fell from the sky and destroyed the dinosaurs.

Here, it was the flood that destroyed the behemoths and the Insect Apes. In my evolutionary history, I'll call it the End of the Genesis Era Mass Extinction.

He sorted out his thoughts. After the Dark Warrior Era, the Light Warrior Era, and the New Era, he flipped to the fourth page. He wrote the words Genesis Era, the Fourth Era. It was just a short description of this period of history.

[In the Genesis Era, the intelligent species appeared. The Intelligent Apes developed tribal city-state civilization, drove away the behemoths, and became the hegemon of the era. However, they were cruel and violent. The heavens could not tolerate them. A flood fell from the sky and destroyed all living things. The Third Extinction Era began, and 99% of all living things were wiped out.]



After recording the Third Extinction Era, Xu Zhi went to sleep.

The next morning, he woke up to wash his face and brush his teeth. He felt a terrifying power spreading through his body. He was shocked and quickly put down what he was doing to study the structure of his body.

"This power is …"

Xu Zhi looked at himself in the mirror.

His original height had increased by a few centimeters, reaching a height of 1.83 meters. Moreover, the edges of his face had become gentler and more handsome, with a kind of elegant and profound temperament.

His body was strong and sturdy, similar to the perfect body in Greek sculptures. He had the body of a model, but when he put on clothes, he did not look like a muscular man.

"I look lean when I take off my clothes."

Xu Zhi felt that his body and the streamlined muscles all over his body were comparable to the perfect hero king, an epic hero.

It was perfect.

"Is this the power from the Third Extinction Era? Compared to the previous two, it's many times stronger … I feel like I'm comparable to some top athletes. "

Xu Zhi clenched his fists and felt the explosive power. He could not help but whisper, "My physical fitness has improved too much."
