After the collapse of civilization, humans became armored beasts with sharp weapons in their hands. The old order was gone. Under the cover of technology and wisdom, humans returned to the era of biting each other. The human civilization on Zorm had regressed to a state of tribal warfare. Now the planet was divided by thousands of city-states, warlords, independent kingdoms, marauders, and government-in-exile. It took them 6,000 years to go from the Bronze Age to the Nano Age, but it only took them 60 years to return to this state of disintegration. And this time, human civilization could no longer stand up.
Hao Ren found that he was now in the northern hemisphere of the planet, one of the key areas where the first world war broke out. The Nanomachine Swarm went out of control only a few hundred kilometers away from here. Now the ruins there were called the Gray River. No one knew how the Nanomachine Swarm disaster stopped, but the scars left by those horrible machines could still be seen occasionally in the wilderness. When Hao Ren came here by car, he saw the uneven marks and weird crystal pits on the ground. Those were the handiwork of the Nanomachine Swarm.
It was not the wilderness, it was a melted city.
At the beginning of the war, humans were divided into several relatively clear camps to attack each other. The Posthumans formed the New Human Legion, while the Naturals were divided into several big countries. But as the war continued, the camps continued to split and regroup. The order could no longer be maintained, and it became a mess. Now, the second-generation Posthumans had established a large number of legions and city-states. The extremist Naturals were also barely maintaining the regime on the ruins of the old countries. Between them were the more moderate Naturals and a small number of first-generation Posthumans. Most of these humans were mercenaries and freedom corps. The civilian organizations had disappeared ten years ago. Today, civilians were just a subsidiary product of the legion, and they were soldiers with weapons.
Hao Ren also checked some of the branches of the Naturals and found that there were many types of Naturals. Because biochemical plug-ins were too convenient, and the physical weakness of the pure-blooded Naturals was too obvious, many Naturals actually had a small number of biochemical plug-ins implanted in them. The only difference between them and the Posthumans was that they would never attack their brain nerves. This' brain purity 'was the only dividing line between the Naturals and the Posthumans. According to the degree of self-transformation, the Naturals were divided into a lot of branches, such as improvement, pure-blooded, integration, and neutral, but they still belonged to the same camp.
And people like Hao Ren, who had no biochemical plug-ins in him, were regarded as the most extreme of the Naturals.
"It's a mess …" Hao Ren shook his head. The information in front of him made him dizzy. "Naturals, Posthumans, World War, and Nano Disaster … It looks more like a man-made disaster."
"But we can't rule out the influence of the 'Guardian'," the MDT said in his mind. "There are no records of the underground tentacles, so the possibility of the First Born is not high. Considering that most of the events are a chain reaction caused by problems within human society, I'm inclined to believe that there is a brain monster lurking on this planet."
Hao Ren pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. "Is it a moderate like the giants … or a completely mutated lunatic?"
"Both are possible. Even a sober giant may attack the mortal race. After all, the pain of losing their mother will make them lose their judgment," the MDT cautiously suggested. "Because we are not sure of the mental state of the Guardian, I suggest we don't act in a high profile for the time being. After determining the coordinates of this planet, we first set up some defensive turrets and the like in orbit, and then force the lurking enemy out and try to kill or subdue them in an instant. What do you think?"
The MDT made this suggestion based on past experience. Considering what happened in Holletta before, these countermeasures were normal. However, Hao Ren always felt that what happened on this planet should be more complicated than that. It was not that there was any concrete evidence, but his sixth sense was reminding him.
He thought for a moment and entered a new set of keywords in the search bar: creator, goddess, origin of life, religious legend.
A lot of messy information quickly refreshed. Hao Ren found that these keywords pointed to things before the war. After the destruction of the world order, no one cared about the ancient religious system, and the emerging religions were also some bizarre extremist organizations. The humans on this planet had no time to care about the 'origin of life' and the like.
"… There are religious stories about the origin of life, and there are many entries in line with the theory of the goddess and the sowing of life," Hao Ren frowned. "According to these things, it is almost certain that the Goddess created the ecosystem here! And until the war, these religions were still in circulation! "
"Before the war? Sixty-five years ago? " The MDT sounded surprised. "This planet escaped the ecological extinction 10,000 years ago?"
There were religious stories similar to the goddess of creation, which meant that the planet's ecosystem carried the blood of the goddess, and having the blood of the goddess meant that after the deicidal incident, this place would be regarded as a place for the crazy guardians to vent their anger. However, this planet was still thriving until sixty-five years ago … Did the guardians miss this place?!
"It is also possible that it survived the first wave of attack like Holletta," Hao Ren shook his head and turned off the computer after finding no more information. "But anyway, since this planet was sown by the goddess … there must be the First Born buried under it!"
The MDT's tone rose. "So the next step is to find the whereabouts of the tentacle monster?"
"You sound happy?"
"I'm not in a good mood, and I need to blow something up," the MDT shouted. "It's suffocating to be in this body!"
"To be honest, don't you have the slightest bit of adaptation?" Hao Ren turned to the bed and bent down to check the state of the MDT's body, but the latter still looked like an ordinary girl's body. "Is it so difficult to change your perception mode and adapt to the five senses of a human?"
"That's easy for you to say." The MDT was still asking for a beating. It was such a waste of its pitiful body. "Put your brain into the stomach of a slime and let me get used to it."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and felt that although he could not do it, perhaps someone in his family could: Nangong Wuyue and Ayesha had turned into slime before, and at that time, it was to let Y 'lisabet play on the trampoline …
He shook his head and threw this unreliable thought aside. He casually tidied the hair on the blonde girl's forehead and muttered, "Speaking of which, your current appearance is much more pleasing to the eye than before. You're quite a beautiful girl …"
The MDT suddenly exclaimed in his mind. "What are you doing?! Let me remind you, this … this body belongs to someone else. Don't you know that the dead are more important! And the soul of this body is essentially a PDA. If you want to do it, at least wait until I'm out … "
Hao Ren really wanted to slap it. "Can't you think normally for once?! I'll clean your face for you! "
The MDT finally shut up. Hao Ren also took out a tissue from his Dimensional Pocket and carefully cleaned the blonde girl's dirty face and blood-stained hair. He did not know how the girl died, and he did not know how to classify the strange situation in front of him. But it was fate that they met. At least while the MDT was temporarily occupying this body, he had to take good care of this body.
"But there's a problem. The body will rot." The MDT sensed Hao Ren's thoughts and spoke again. "If this situation continues, your life will become more and more hardcore in the next few days. Others' evaluation of you will rise from a pathetic necrophile to a perverted necrophile, and eventually to a pure pervert …"
Hao Ren had no energy to bicker with the MDT. He just casually said, "Didn't Nolan say that she would send a 'doctor' over? I guess it's to help with the embalming. And when you say this, think about your situation: you are now the owner of this body. Who do you think will have a harder taste in the next few days? "
"I don't care. I'm a PDA. My worldview is different from yours. Bite me?"
Hao Ren was speechless.
In any case, this was definitely the weirdest situation he had ever encountered since he started working.
