Chapter 114 Stupid Senior Sister and Unlucky Kid

In that era when technology was just beginning to emerge, gunpowder had only just been used in warfare, and the mainstream weapons were still bows and arrows and spears. For humans at that time, giant beasts that were thirty or forty meters tall were simply a matter of subversion.

In that era, humanity was on the verge of extinction. Giant beasts destroyed their original order and economy, and nations collapsed. As the beasts ravaged the world, humanity began to hide in burrows like rats, attempting to survive in this way.

However, the giant beasts are increasingly developing the ability to sense heat sources and heartbeats, making them able to easily detect humans hiding five meters underground and hunt them down one by one.

Although humans have killed giant beasts using traps, catapults, muskets, and spears, these small-scale victories cannot mask the overall collapse of humanity's defenses.

At that time, just when humanity in this world had completely lost the ability to resist, a man in white robes suddenly appeared, like sunlight piercing through the darkness, raising his torch high, and bringing new power to this world.

It is called "magic".

It is also the precursor to the modern world's "psychic energy".

The old mage led the survivors to build a city on the ruins, using magic to quickly erect a giant city wall nearly a hundred meters high to stop the giant beast.

He taught more and more people all kinds of magic, and when a city-state had the power to resist the giant beasts, he would continue to go to other places, gather more survivors, and rebuild the city-state.

This is the origin of the world's history centered on cities.

After countless city-states, large and small, were established around the world, the old sage disappeared. Some say he died of old age, others say he went elsewhere. In the end, the original city-state system of the world was established.

The survivors also gained the new power of magic to fight against the giant beasts. In this way, another thousand years passed, and human magic and technology were further developed. They opened up more city-states around the original city-states established by the Great Sage, reaching a peak of more than 800 city-states.

However, as humanity progressed, the giant beasts also grew stronger. A thousand years ago, the giant beasts were only thirty or forty meters tall at most, and the strongest were probably only at the third rank. Therefore, at that time, some second-rank mages were enough to protect a city-state.

However, the strongest of the giant beasts are over 80 meters tall, and some have even reached the peak of the fourth tier. Meanwhile, the strongest human psionicists are only at the peak of the third tier. Faced with increasingly powerful giant beasts and even stronger super beasts, humans can only rely on technological advancements and magical assistance to barely resist them.

Human progress can no longer keep up with the pace of giant beast progress...

Many people have become pessimistic, believing that humanity will once again find itself in the same predicament as it was a thousand years ago, becoming a weak and vulnerable meal trembling at the feet of giant beasts.

Having seen this, Xue's Law gradually understood everything.

Why did the higher-ups in this world become so obsessed with researching the behemoth serum?

Even though many people suspected that the Behemoth Serum might be problematic, all the super-beasts transformed by the Behemoth Serum harbored an intense hatred for humanity.

Because the pace of human progress is far behind that of the progress of giant beasts.

Over the course of a thousand years, humanity in this world has progressed from firearms to atomic bombs, and magic has advanced from a maximum of 2nd-tier mages to the current near-4th-tier mages who can now reach the peak of 3rd-tier.

However, before the emergence of the Super Beasts, the most powerful being among the giant beasts was already at the 4th tier.

These are just the giant beasts that humans can observe. In those unexplored, uninhabited areas, in those oceans, do even stronger giant beasts exist? Humans do not know.

Even a level 4 behemoth has already kept humanity running around in circles.

Furthermore, it seems that both technology and magic have reached a bottleneck, and humans are unable to make breakthroughs in a short period of time, while the giant beasts are getting stronger and stronger every day.

If this continues, humanity will be slowly dying. One day, humanity will be completely unable to keep up with the pace of evolution of the giant beasts and will eventually become their food.

Therefore, once the behemoth serum was made public, humanity could not possibly give it up.

This is the difference between chronic death and euthanasia.

Abandoning the behemoth serum and facing a slow death, researching the behemoth serum, even if humanity fails, can be considered euthanasia.

It seems the invaders who provided the behemoth serum have completely found the Achilles' heel of humanity in this world…

They orchestrated this scheme by exploiting the minds of humanity in this world. Not only did they keep humanity busy dealing with the external threat of giant beasts, but they also caused a large-scale internal conflict among the super beasts, leading to another powerful evolution of the giant beasts in this world.

Zero Beast is already a monster at the peak of Tier 4.

However, there are currently seven such super beasts in the world, and the number will only increase.

The invader seemed confident that after the world's civilization was wiped out, he could ignore the giant beasts and super-beasts on this planet.

No, perhaps the super beasts and giant beasts of this world are also their spoils of war, just as Xue Law once thought, to control the super beasts and giant beasts and sell them as controllable commodities to make a fortune.

And this planet will be completely transformed into a monster ranch, sold like cattle and sheep raised by the invaders.

Even when the Starfleet arrived, they only discovered that the civilization on this planet had been wiped out by the Super Beasts. Since the Super Beasts were a native species, the new alien colonists saw the wild Super Beasts on this world and began to raise them here.

The interstellar column will most likely only be recorded and reported briefly, ultimately becoming just a document placed in an archive.

This civilization was completely buried in the long river of history.

After reading the brief history of this world, Xue Dinglu, combined with the information he had obtained, could only think of so much.

At the same time, his fists were clenched.

That's really a clever scheme.

It perfectly deceived the interstellar column, and may even have deceived the native planetary consciousness, making the planetary consciousness believe that this was just a civil war within its own territory.

Although they were enemies, he had to admire their cunning.

For the first time, he encountered someone who used schemes to destroy the world.

Unlike the Lich King's army crushing everything in its path, unlike Zeus's astonishing wisdom of controlling his own head with his small one, and unlike the Shub insectoids, a mobile scourge.

Instead, they are invaders who use a top-notch, overt strategy to destroy the world.

"Then let's see if your scheme is more brilliant, or if my plan is more perfect." Xue Dinglu looked up at the sky of this world, which was now slightly dark and covered with dark clouds.

He seemed to be looking at his behind-the-scenes rival and issuing a challenge to him from afar.

His biggest advantage is that while the mastermind behind the scenes cannot act openly, he can.

……

"It's going to rain," the girl in the trio said, looking at the dark clouds outside the window.

Meanwhile, the hot-blooded young man in the three-person team was sprawled on the sofa, having already drunk half of a large bucket of water in front of him, perhaps due to water intoxication, while the unlucky guy was awkwardly eating snacks.

When Wu Li thought about how these two would be her junior brothers for life (in her own opinion), she felt that her senior sister was really worried sick.

After today's training, they checked their ages and then divided themselves into senior sister, second senior brother, and junior brother.

In the girl's eyes, there was an enthusiastic idiot who always exhausted her, and a pathetic brat. She, the beautiful girl, had to be both the senior and the mother to both train them and keep an eye on them to see if they would accidentally knock her unconscious.

She was actually only fourteen years old, just a few months older than them.

The teacher is like a monarch, with many tasks to complete, and cannot take care of the three of them every moment. Therefore, only she, the senior sister, has the hardest job.

She also longed for a cool and handsome senior brother in her team, so that she could be taken care of like a little princess. But in the end, she became the senior sister herself...

Taking care of two silly junior brothers.

"Silly Star, and you loser, we need to hurry up and pack up the teacher's things so they don't get wet in the rain. Hurry up, you don't want to make the teacher angry, do you?" The girl stood with her hands on her hips, looking like a senior sister scolding her junior brother.

"I guarantee to complete the mission!" Yun Xing stood up instantly. He really had no objections to this senior sister. Firstly, she was older than him, and secondly, he had fainted this afternoon due to overuse of his ability while training in water vapor control. It was his senior sister who carried him into the room and fed him water.

"Okay, senior sister..." The boy blushed for some reason. He immediately followed behind Yunxing and was then put his arm around her shoulder. They went out to pack their things while chatting and laughing.

Wu Li's lips twitched as she looked at the boy's expression.

Girls of this age are usually more mature than boys. She seemed to realize that this guy seemed to have a thing for her. It wasn't that she was narcissistic, but that the loser, apart from not confessing directly, practically had "I like my senior sister" written all over his face.

On the contrary, that silly boy is carefree and has a relationship with his fellow disciples that is somewhere between family and friends.

It's giving me a headache. How can I refuse him smoothly without hurting his pride?

She likes cool and handsome male gods, not this kind of cowardly loser.

Just as they finished tidying up their things outside, thunder rumbled and a torrential downpour began.

Xue Dinglu also came out of the room just after finishing reading the documents, still wearing his white sunglasses.

"Huh? You guys actually helped me clean up on your own?" Xue Dinglu looked at the three sensible little ones, he really didn't expect them to be so self-aware.

At his age, he probably couldn't have imagined this.

“It’s nothing, teacher, it’s what we should do,” Wu Li said immediately.

"Oh, that's thoughtful of you. It's raining heavily. Let me take you home." Xue Dinglu took out his car keys.
