But before his men could take a few steps forward, another enormous head emerged from the jungle behind Quaggi—it was a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Then two yakmen and a large group of robot soldiers emerged from the jungle, surrounding the entire ancient tree area.
The Na'vi panicked at the sight, and Jake Sully was filled with despair.
"Kill them and avenge our people!" Seeing this, Rota steeled his heart, grabbed his weapon, and charged towards Quachi first.
However, what they received in response was the blaster in the robot's hand.
As beams of energy flashed, all the Na'vi who dared to resist instantly collapsed to the ground.
The remaining Na'vi were furious, but even more so, they were terrified.
"Stop, damn it, stop!" Jake Sully was furious and horrified as he watched the Na'vi fall to the ground one by one.
Quarch waved his hand lightly, and all the robot soldiers instantly put away their weapons.
But this time, not a single Na'vi dared to resist.
“Jack, we meet again. It seems you really enjoy your life now. It’s just a pity that, judging from their expressions just now, they don’t seem to have truly accepted you!” Quarch, leading two yak-men, slowly walked up to the altar of Mother Tree Ava and said to Jack Sally with a mocking tone.
“You madman, executioner, butcher! You’ll get your comeuppance!” Jack Sully cursed Quaritch furiously, but he didn’t dare to make a move—after all, he was afraid of dying.
However, Quagmi noticed that the other person's gaze kept wandering over him.
Quach was very familiar with that look... It was the other party searching for his weakness, probably trying to take him hostage so that he would retreat.
After all, the Na'vi's reflexes are many times greater than those of humans, and in close combat, a normal human would absolutely be no match for a Na'vi.
However, Quarg was not wary at all; instead, he deliberately took a few steps forward and got even closer to Jack Sally.
Jack couldn't help but feel secretly pleased by Quachi's peculiar behavior.
However, he didn't show it on his face, and continued to curse wildly.
“You’re right, and I don’t deny it. Morally speaking, my behavior was utterly heinous… But so what? The victor is king, the loser is a bandit! History is only written by the victors, and that is the eternal truth.”
"I won. I transformed Pandora into a new world suitable for human habitation. Hundreds of years from now, my achievements will be recorded in the books, and I, like Washington, will be revered by generations of humanity… As for you, you will only be remembered as a simple 'traitor.'" Quarch said nonchalantly in the face of Jack's curses.
Faced with such shameless quacking, Jack was speechless.
Because Quark is right.
Many people on Earth only know that Washington brought about the independence and rise of what was once the most powerful nation on Earth, but how many people know that Washington orchestrated countless massacres of indigenous people?
There are countless similar examples throughout human history.
Civilization is never as civilized as it appears on the surface.
“Masters, this is Ava, the mother tree of the Na'vi. Now, it’s up to you two!” Quarch ignored Jack and turned to point at Ava, the mother tree, and said to the Flashhoof brothers.
Taking advantage of this moment, Jack launched a surprise attack, drawing his dagger and stepping forward to stab Quagge.
However, just as Quach had guessed, he did not intend to kill Quach—because in his old impression, Quach was just an ordinary officer on the side of the Sky People, and killing him would only allow the Sky People's army to continue slaughtering the Na'vi without any other effect.
It would be better to take the other side hostage, force Quach to withdraw its troops, and get through the current crisis first.
Unfortunately, Jack completely underestimated the strength of his opponent.
Although he wondered why Quarch was able to expose himself to the air of Pandora without using a breathing mask, he didn't delve into it due to the situation, assuming that the Sky People had come up with some new technology.
It's completely unexpected that the current Quaki's physical abilities cannot be measured by the standards of ordinary humans.
Faced with Jack's sudden attack, Quaritch easily dodged it by simply turning slightly to the side, and then turned around and punched Jack in the stomach.
Jack, in pain, stumbled back several meters and landed hard on his backside.
Before he could react, Quarch had already closed in and delivered a powerful whip kick to Jack's right shin.
With a crisp cracking sound, Jack's leg bone broke instantly.
Although the Na'vi's bones are very resilient, Quarch's strength is now too great, and under his full-force attack, he still cannot escape the calamity of broken bones.
Jack let out a scream.
However, before he could react further, he did something else.
Quark delivered another whip kick, this time landing on Jack's left leg.
Jack's left leg also broke instantly.
In just a few seconds, Jake Sully was back to being the paralyzed man he was when he first arrived on Pandora!
"Hmm, this look suits you much better, it's much more pleasing to the eye!" Quark said leisurely, looking at Jack who was clutching his legs and screaming on the ground.
Once upon a time, he had high hopes for Jack, this young corporal, and greatly admired him.
They even promised to restore Jack's legs—the technology of this world's Earth wasn't actually incapable of making Jack stand up, but the medical costs were far too high for an ordinary Marine like Jack to afford.
However, Jake Sully ultimately broke his promise to him, choosing to stand with the Na'vi and help them fight against him, even nearly killing him.
This is why Quark is so obsessed with Jack Sulli.
It is only when betrayed by someone you care about that you feel angry.
Quark wouldn't care so much if Jack Sully were just like those scientists.
"You can just lie here and rest..." After saying that, Quarch didn't look at Jack again, but turned to the Flashhoof brothers. "Masters, let's begin!"
"What are they? What do you want?" Jack, who was screaming in agony on the ground, heard Quaki's words and glanced at the two burly, ferocious-looking yak-men before asking.
"Hey, you'd better show some respect to these two. They're powerful beings from a higher civilization, not like your savage friends!" Quark said, kicking Jack in the stomach.
His words were realistic and cruel.
In Northrend, the Yak people's status and situation were not much better than that of the Na'vi.
However, after joining the Ouroboros and becoming Josie's subordinates, the Flashhoof Brothers instantly became superior to others when facing other lower civilizations or those who knew Josie's true nature.
Therefore, strength speaks volumes, which is the eternal theme of the progress of civilization.
If you want to reason with someone, you must first have the ability to reason!
Otherwise, no matter how civilized you are, barbarism will easily destroy you!
"As for what to do? I am honored to inform you of something: your Mother Tree has been chosen by a greater being... Now, kneel down and give thanks!" Quaggi proudly raised his head and said to the surviving Na'vi present.
If Josie hadn't been there, she would have thought Ebony Maw had time-traveled too, seeing Quarchi like this!
However, the Flashhoof brothers had no interest in watching Quagga's performance. After Quagga finished speaking, they solemnly took out the box containing the Seed of the Gods.
The moment the box was opened, the golden light illuminated the already bright mountains where the mother tree Ava was located even more.
However, upon seeing this light, the Na'vi present were immediately overwhelmed with a complex mix of fear, pleading, and anger.
"Alert!" Quarch, who had been observing all the Na'vi, immediately noticed their unusual behavior and gave the order to the mechanical legion.
"What on earth is going on? What is that thing?" Jake Sully also sensed this emotion and noticed that something was wrong with his people. However, he was just an avatar with a human soul, not a real Na'vi, so the impact on him was not as severe as on the other Na'vi.
However, no one paid him any attention at this point. As the Flashhoof brothers took the Seed of the Gods out of the box and brought it close to Ava's branch, all the Na'vi present were affected by Ava. Instantly, all their fear vanished, and they charged toward the Seed of the Gods with bloodshot eyes.
They seemed determined to destroy the seed of the gods.
The Na'vi were unaffected by the last uprising because they had evolved to a certain level. While Pandora still had an impact on them, it wasn't as strong as that on animals.
Moreover, the anomalies that appeared were only some proto-dragons and the like, not enough to cause Pandora to completely go berserk.
But this time, the incident occurred in the sacred land of the Mother Tree Ava, and Pandora also sensed a deadly threat from the Seed of the Gods, which brought Pandora's influence over the Na'vi to its peak.
Unfortunately, none of this mattered.
The Na'vi were met with ruthless robots and the weapons in their hands.
“No…don’t do that!” Jack Sally tried to stop him again, but this time no one paid any attention to him.
"It's no use. Do you know why? Because it's this so-called Mother Tree that's sending them to their deaths!" Quarch sneered. "This is no longer a war between humans and the Na'vi, but a war between gods. Faced with gods, you and I are just insignificant members!"
As he finished speaking, the Flashhoof brothers behind him had already attached the Seed of the Gods to Ava's body.
The moment it touched Ava, countless golden threads emerged from the Seed of the Gods, began to penetrate deep into the trunk of the mother tree Ava, and extended continuously into the depths of the ground along the tree's roots.
The Mother Tree Ava is merely a means for Pandora to reveal itself to the outside world. Its true core, like Tiamat and Azeroth, lies deep within the planet's interior!
"General, countless native beasts are constantly approaching from the outer perimeter!" Just as the Seed of the Gods began to absorb the essence of Pandora's Star Soul through Ava, an even more powerful uprising began.
And it wasn't just the animals; even Pandora's climate began to be affected at this time!
Chapter 342 I still want Ai-chan...
“How could God really exist?” Jack Sully lay on the ground, staring blankly at the sky.
However, there were other things to consider: Quachi's previous words, the ever-changing sky, the mournful cries of all the beasts, the various miraculous experiences he had when he came into contact with the Mother Tree Ava, and the green energy that appeared in the hands of those two "experts".
Everything was telling him that all of this might be true.
“I don’t want to admit it, but it’s true!” Quarch appeared beside Jack again. “You may think that everything you did before was your own choice, but in fact, you were just a pawn used by the gods of Pandora… Otherwise, why would you think that a human from light-years away would be recognized by the so-called Eva the Tree?”
Upon hearing Quaritch's words, Jake couldn't help but recall his first time getting lost on Pandora, his chance encounter with Neytiri, and how he gradually integrated into the Na'vi community, gained Eva's approval, and became the legendary Phantom Rider.
While his efforts and perseverance certainly played a part, it is undeniable that there were also a great deal of coincidences involved.
"And what about you?" Jack lay on the ground, thinking for a moment, then chuckled and asked in return.
“That’s right, I’m just like you, a pawn!” Quachi said nonchalantly. Indeed, becoming the holder of the dimensional beacon, establishing contact with Josie who was like a god to him, and working hard for Josie’s goals—how is that any different from becoming a pawn of a god?
However, compared to Jack, who is secretly controlled by Pandora's Star Soul, Quaritch is quite content with his current situation.
