People in Terra, governing a bizarre little country

“Others might be bragging when they say this, but Kal'tsit said it, so she probably actually saw it.”

It's not that he favors Kal'tsit, but only when it comes to "historical gossip"—cough, I mean "historical knowledge reserves"—Kal'tsit's authority is absolutely unquestionable!

If she says it's true, then 99% of the time it really is true.

The reason is simple—he was present when the [Far Exiles] destroyed their kingdom, and she commanded Sargon's southern campaign. She was a guest of honor of Khan Shah, and also a member of the Great Flame Hall of Ursus!

Although she may have died twice along the way, and the counter has now become [mon3tr], as a beast agent like Nian, all things considered, she still has to be called "Aunt Kal'tsit"!

"No need for that, Auntie."

Listening to Ernst's half-hearted flattery, Kelsey felt a sense of unease and fear. She didn't even have time to get angry when Ernst made a sarcastic remark about her age. She quickly interrupted Ernst and gave the snow leopard a wary look.

Is the sun rising in the west today? Ernst is praising her for no reason at all?

And judging from her expression, she seems to be in an exceptionally good mood.

Something's not right! Something's definitely not right! What did you do last night? What happened? Did you dream about Terra unifying the world?

2 A chill ran through her. Kal'tsit silently distanced herself from Ernst, while tugging at the bewildered Doctor beside her who couldn't understand anything.

Dr. Si glanced at Kal'tsit, then ignored her and silently moved a little closer to Ernst.

Why are you afraid if others are happy? Wouldn't you be happy if others were angry?

Third, isn't this a lack of education?

Kal'tsit was startled by the Doctor's resistance and opened her mouth, then pursed her lips in a somewhat aggrieved manner, not daring to continue trying to persuade the Doctor.

Soon, the special communication terminal issued to Ernst and the others transmitted the true dragon's decree.

"All agents of the Year Beasts and the other giant beasts are requested to proceed to their posts outside the Year Tomb and await its opening."

"Mr. Ernst, Ms. Kelsey, and the Doctor, please proceed to the Ministry of Works immediately to open up a mining tunnel that leads directly to the main mine vein of Jingyu Island."

"In case of any unexpected situation, you can contact us at any time via the terminal. I have ordered the fleet, the Imperial Guard, the Celestial Master's Mansion and other reinforcements to be waiting outside, ready to support you at any time."

"The rise and fall, survival and destruction of the Great Yan Dynasty, will depend on this battle. I will be stationed in the Forbidden City, standing with you all."

"I hereby express my gratitude to you all in the name of the True Dragon and the Great Yan Dynasty. I wish you all great success and prosperity in your military endeavors!"

Chapter 975 Ya'er: Gently Awaken the Sleeping Soul!

I am [age].

This name was given to me by these little dragon people with horns on their heads and tails behind their backs. This is not my actual name. The people who built the city on my body and used me as a breeding ground for civilization gave me and other life forms similar to me a series of code names. But later those people left and never came back. And those code names were not easy to remember, so I gradually forgot them.

The name 【岁】 is simple and sounds pretty good, so I've kept it.

Of course, the main reason is that among those people, there was one who was full of philosophical thoughts.

Unlike those who were single-mindedly focused on construction, he never appeared on those construction sites filled with robots, and he rarely showed up when those people were brainstorming. While those people kept talking about "survival" and every word carried the connotation of "civilization," he seemed to be the only one who never seemed so bitter and resentful. He seemed to take things in stride, always smiling and easing the increasingly tense atmosphere among those people.

So much so that another man who always liked to wear a hood once said:

“You are different from us. You are not suited for this. You don’t need to let this complicated knowledge pollute your brain. You just need to be yourself.”

这位有着不1被繁0琐知0识污7染的6纯洁大脑的人9对祂1说过：4[36

"The question of 'Who are you?' is one of the three ultimate questions in human philosophy throughout history, and no one has been able to answer it to this day."

"A name and a code name are not really that different. Whether a name is important or not depends on whether someone calls you by that name and whether you want someone to call you by that name."

"So, ultimately, what matters most is how you want others to see you and how you want to be yourself."

Those little dragons called Him "Sui". In their eyes, He was a giant beast on the scorching land, their god, and their great protector.

Then He could be [age].

He can help them, protect them, and even fight for them.

Because He sensed a familiar aura in these people, as if they were inextricably linked to that philosophical person from back then, and to those who struggled and worked tirelessly for the survival of civilization!

That was a glorious era, a glorious era in which even a behemoth like Him could feel the value of His own existence!

Perhaps, by nurturing them, we can bring those people back, restore the glory of the past, and allow Him to experience the joy of "it is worth the effort".

He never doubted his own judgment, because the echo of cause and effect within him was constantly verifying the correctness of this conjecture!

However, it is counterproductive.

He gave his all, worked hard, and accomplished their goal.

But those people later wished for His death!

He was already seriously injured at that time.

While He was powerful and possessed the most complex powers among all the giant beasts, He was ultimately all alone, helping humanity and fighting against His own kind.

Moreover, sometimes, victory or defeat isn't decided solely on the battlefield. Even in death or departure, those of His own kind carried resentment in their eyes and bitterness in their hearts. This pure malice transformed into a terrifying curse, plunging Him into unprecedented weakness.

In the end, He himself swallowed the bitter fruit of his own making.

Suiling, a tomb was built by mortals to "bury" him, and he was buried in it, never to escape!

But humanity underestimated Him. He is the most powerful beast, and even if He dies, He will not perish so easily.

For "nature," it is never the end; when a whale falls, all things are born!

Si Ke He did not want to repeat the same mistake.

He has witnessed the most brutal massacres, the most vicious conspiracies, and the most cruel betrayals in the human world.

Fifth, He did not want those beasts who were reborn because of His death to experience the tragedy of fratricide and the turning of love into hatred again. He did not want them to fail again because of their arrogance, or fall into the traps woven by humans because they did not understand "human nature".

But how can this be done?

Humanity's cunning and treachery have already caused Him suffering; how can He guarantee that those newborn beasts won't fall into the same trap a second time?

In the final stages of his life, he looked back on everything and came up with the best solution.

Among the magnificent civilizations He had witnessed, a philosophical being once told him that there are three ultimate philosophical questions in human history that still have no answers.

He did not say what the other two major problems were.

But there was one thing he knew.

So let's make this rule!

Every beast born of His death must answer the following question:

【Who are you? 】

Since humans cannot answer this question, if they could, it would mean that the wisdom of the newborn beasts has surpassed that of the most intelligent humans!

Furthermore, by answering this question, they have demonstrated that they have found "themselves," become "themselves," and no longer need to care about their image in the eyes of others. They are not like Him, easily deceived by a few words, and thus end up in such a state!

What a brilliant and perfect plan!

In this way, He can finally rest easy and sleep peacefully!

Underground in Baizao City.

Seventy percent of the energy of Baizhao City was extracted, and the entire city was placed under martial law. All of this was poured into the complex engraving array on Suiling. Under the watchful eyes of the True Dragon, the Old Celestial Master, and a group of Sui Beast agents and giant beasts, the heavy gate of Suiling finally emitted its first muffled sound in ten thousand years.

Without prior arrangement, all the agents of the Year Beast present were briefly bewildered.

It was an inseparable connection between the part and the whole, linking their consciousness to that already hazy consciousness.

Without reason, without any warning, and without any means of resistance, in a void, Wang saw the figure of that enormous creature for the second time.

That's the consciousness of "age".

Or rather, the remnants of knowledge at age 60.

The Year Beast has died, and its consciousness and soul have been divided into many parts, becoming the foundation for each Year Beast's agent.

Within this enormous body, there should now only be a chaotic remnant of consciousness, as if it were instinct.

But Wang gritted his teeth.

He saw a hint of intelligence in the cold eyes of the beast.

That was something he had never seen before, the last time he opened the gates of the Sui Mausoleum and faced the Sui Beast, when he "hastily completed the Yuanjia era, sealed the wolf's lair, and only managed to look back in panic to the north."

He knew where that intellectual insight came from.

That was because of his recklessness, the failure of the Si Sui Tai to save him, the indifference of the imperial court, and the fact that he was forced to sacrifice himself. After being devoured and merged, he was given the title of Sui.

Just as the true dragon said.

Sui has awakened, but not yet fully. Perhaps a wisp of Jie's consciousness still exists, restricting Sui's movements.

Wang felt a sharp, piercing pain. But soon, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

It's alright, Sui! Today, I'm here to kill you!

“A part of me.”

The colossal creature gazed upon the eleven small figures before it, a benevolent smile appearing on its face. Though it had a beastly face, it felt strangely familiar to the beast agents.

"Very good, there are so many."

"You must have all answered the question 'Who am I?' right?"

"To be honest, I have been pondering this in this tomb for a thousand years, yet I still haven't come up with a single clue. But I never expected that you, who are part of me, would all be able to answer it!"

"It amazes me!"

His body, hidden in the clouds, swayed slightly, and his enormous dragon head slowly descended, drawing close to the eleven people before him.

“In this dark and sunless tomb, every day is filled with suffering. I have not seen you for ten thousand years, my avatars.”

"I am so happy to talk to you all again. Seeing you is like seeing all sorts of different versions of myself. This scene truly brings me great joy!"

"Then tell me now, what do you seek in me? Greater power? More authority? Or have you suffered enough in the mortal world, experiencing all the emotions and desires, love, hate, anger, and greed, and now you finally want to end it all?"

"That's normal. Once a thought arises, it's like the awakening of chaos. Once you're entangled in it, you can never break free. That's the nature of the human world."

"If you are tired, you may come back. I am willing to welcome you back."

He spoke earnestly, awaiting Wang's answer.

A ruthless smile appeared on Wang's face.

Joy? Pain? Return?

What are you saying? I don't understand at all!

Who am I? I have indeed answered that question!

Do you want to know the answer?

I'm here to kill you!

He spoke slowly, but instead of answering His question, he called out loudly:

"【Sami】!"

A hint of human-like astonishment flashed across the dragon's head, as if it had been startled by the sudden cry. Its entire body trembled, and even the surrounding clouds dispersed considerably.

Why are you yelling so loudly? And what is 【Sami】?

He asked instinctively.

However, before Wang could answer, Sui felt a bone-chilling cold the next second!

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang.

The sky in the void seemed to be torn apart, shattering into countless fragments mixed with tiny ice crystals. In an underground space almost the size of the core city of Hundred Stove, on the corpse of the Year Beast lying prostrate on the ground, [Sami] raised his hand and, under Yeragand's somewhat unbearable gaze, slammed it down hard!

The giant beast's skull cracked with a crisp sound!

The methods were extremely cruel!

After smashing it, [Sami] turned his attention to Yeragand.

"Me too, do I want some?"

Jeragand asked, somewhat incredulously.

[Sami] nodded slightly, pointing to the figures of the Year Beast agents beside him, whose forms were barely visible but had solidified considerably after Sami's punch:

“Wake Him up, otherwise they will be the ones who don’t wake up.”

Ya'er was slightly taken aback, but then made up her mind!
