Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 495 Creation Myth

Cassandra gave up after fiddling around for a while, then turned to look at the cameras in the four corners of the room and the huge reflective mirror on the wall.

The mirror was probably one-way, and there must be someone watching from behind... In any case, being deep inside a military base and under such close surveillance, escape was a pipe dream...

That's certainly true for ordinary people...

Cassandra waited quietly in the interrogation room for about two hours when the iron door suddenly opened, two soldiers came in, unlocked her shackles, and took her away.

Cassandra cooperated readily, and without even asking what had happened, she was led out of the base by two soldiers and shoved into an armored vehicle.

Looking through the hatch, you could see Lei Fei, Michael, Karim, and the Moka couple tied up inside, guarded by a soldier with a gun.

Cassandra was forced into an armored vehicle and locked to her seat. As the hatch closed, the armored vehicle started up and drove out of the military base, making a large loop before heading towards Pulitzer Port.

The people in the car exchanged glances and suddenly smiled.

"A bunch of natives, think they can hold us captive?" Michael chuckled, then gestured with his chin towards the guard: "What are you standing there for? Untie them now!"

The soldier glanced at him, ignored him, and instead came closer to remove Cassandra's shackles.

"Hey, you little brat!" Michael was clearly annoyed, but the soldier then untied Lei Fei, Karim, and Moka, and finally sat back down.

"You can just lock yourself up there!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the car burst into laughter, except for Michael, who remained furious and relentless, even kicking the soldier. The soldier dodged, his face momentarily blurred, and he transformed into a brown-skinned young man, none other than Akai from the Reincarnators.

The driver in front also turned around. Although he was wearing the uniform of the Akaroi Federation Army, he had an Asian face. Who else could it be but Nakamura?

It turned out that before being put into the vehicle in cooperation with the military, Nakamura had used illusion magic to distort the appearances of himself and Akai. Although they were taken back to the military base like everyone else, in the eyes of the natives, they were not prisoners, but soldiers.

Of course, it would be strange for two soldiers to suddenly appear out of nowhere, so in fact, they replaced two of the soldiers who had attacked and been subdued earlier. As for the two unlucky guys who were replaced, they have been anesthetized and stuffed into a closet in the apartment, and they won't wake up for several dozen hours!

As for the number of reincarnators, since the newcomers basically didn't participate in the operation and stayed in the house, the military didn't monitor each one. They only knew roughly, and they didn't notice that two people were missing.

They arrived at the military base, where Nakamura and Kai were given freedom of movement while the others were interrogated. Nakamura could use illusion magic to conceal their movements, making them difficult to detect even by military surveillance equipment. Kai, a computer expert, used special tools and computer knowledge to attempt to hack into the military's systems and steal information!

Once he obtained the necessary intelligence, Nakamura used a puppet talisman to control the base's highest commander, a major general, and ordered them to leave.

Of course, to avoid suspicion, the order was to transfer them to another location. However, after leaving the base, the armored vehicle would be under their control, and their confiscated weapons would be taken with them in the vehicle. As for the tracking equipment on the vehicle, it had all been hacked by Akai, so there was no need to worry about the major general coming back to hunt them down.

"How's it going?" Cassandra asked Akay. "Have you figured out what the military knows?"

Although the reincarnators were searched, their altar badges were not taken away. Even in the interrogation room, Cassandra was still able to contact Nakamura Akai and tell them that the military had known about the three calamities of the apocalypse for a long time.

"They know more than we imagined!" Akai opened the badge, and a light screen popped up, densely filled with detailed information, including various pictures and data.

"According to military intelligence, they knew about the existence of the Three Calamities of Doomsday at least a hundred years ago!"

"So early?" Everyone else was taken aback. Cassandra urged, "Be more specific!"

Akai scratched his messy hair, flipped through the documents, and showed a picture of an ancient stone slab: "This is the Doomsday Tablet, unearthed from an underground ruin over a hundred years ago. It records an ancient prophecy that involves the destruction of humanity and the appearance of the three apocalyptic disasters!"

As he spoke, Akai continued to flip through the pages. A magnified view of the Doomsday Monument appeared on the screen, inscribed with obscure ancient characters and depicting the general outlines of four creatures. Three of them formed an equilateral triangle, surrounding the fourth one in the center.

"According to the inscription on the square tablet, these four are the four great deities who descended upon the world at the beginning of its creation." With that, Akai began to introduce each of the four:

"The one at the very top, with wings and resembling a giant dragon, is the Lord of the Sky; the one in the lower left corner, covered in armor plates and with a robust physique, is the Lord of the Earth; and the one in the lower right corner, with countless octopus-like tentacles and fish-like scales, is the Lord of the Ocean!"

Finally, Akai pointed to the very center, to a human-shaped symbol: "And this is the Lord of Wisdom, the ancestor who created humankind!"

"Creating...humans?" The reincarnators frowned.

"At least that's what the stone tablet says." Akai nodded and said, "According to the inscription on the tablet, at the beginning of the world, the four great gods reached a consensus that each of their families would take turns ruling the world. In the previous several eras, after hundreds of millions of years of reincarnation, the Lord of the Sky, the Lord of the Ocean, and the Lord of the Earth dominated the world, until the most recent time, when the Lord of Wisdom is about to take over."

"But as the wisest of the gods, the Lord of Wisdom made a bet with three other gods!"

"That means the period during which the intelligent race rules the world is not fixed like the previous three divine races. Instead, it depends on when the intelligent race begins to invade the territories of the other three races!"

"Upon hearing this bet, the other three gods immediately agreed, because based on the experience of previous eras, when organisms develop to a certain extent, they will inevitably begin to expand their territory and encroach on the living environment of other races. Just as fish will eventually evolve limbs to walk on land, and dinosaurs will eventually evolve wings to fly into the sky, the sky races born in the heavens will eventually descend to the earth and fill the land and sea..."

"Based on experience, this process is much shorter than an epoch, so they agreed without hesitation! From then on, the four great gods made a bet: once the intelligent race begins to invade the underground in large numbers, dive into the ocean, and fly into space, then the gods of the other three races can begin to bring down disasters and send out monsters every thousand years to annihilate the intelligent race and start a new cycle of rule!"

"However, what the other three gods didn't know was that this was a trap set by the Lord of Wisdom to rule the world forever!"

Akai flipped through the images: "According to the Lord of Wisdom's calculations, his people, namely humans, will not rely on the long process of biological evolution to reach the heavens, the earth, and the sea. Instead, they will utilize intelligence and the power of technology to explore the environment. This speed is faster than evolution, and the effects it brings are also more powerful!"

"In other words, by the time humans can fly and explore the earth, the monsters of nature will probably be no longer a threat, and this bet can continue indefinitely, allowing their own kind to rule the world forever!"
