Soon Chen Jie lost all curiosity...
The tribe sent people behind the imprisoned giant beast to collect its excrement...
Damn it!
After thinking about it...
There wasn't a single patch of green on the wasteland, and their metallic plastic clothing showed no signs of dead leaves or twigs. Perhaps, after the natural disaster destroyed the Earth, the biosphere, which is gradually recovering, is temporarily devoid of plants.
At the same time, there are no other small creatures on the wasteland, and the only organic matter that can be obtained is Originium or the excrement of giant beasts.
Hey hey hey, this is a choice made out of necessity. There are quite a few animals on Earth that eat poop, such as fish, dogs, and koalas.
Newborn koalas cannot digest the toxicity of eucalyptus leaves, so they can only eat their mother's feces, a detoxified food that has undergone one digestion process.
So, what does this giant beast eat?
Chen Jie soon found out—
Originium.
After the people of this tribe discovered that the excrement of their Old God had decreased, they sent those in the tribe infected with Oripathy to mine it, and then delivered it to the mouth of the giant beast.
Unlike Chen Jie, who can consume Originium without getting infected, these demi-humans will contract Oripathy.
The tribe consciously lives separately because, due to the rudimentary detection mechanism, they can only rely on crystals on the skin to make a diagnosis. The two groups of people live on opposite sides of the square.
One day, an infected person exploded on the spot, leaving behind a humanoid Originium crystal.
This is death. It is clear that the entire tribe has become accustomed to such deaths caused by Originium disease. They feed the corpses of the dead, along with the mined Originium, to the giant beast.
The Originium on the body surface, the Originium ore in the outside world, and the Originium that grows after a natural disaster have exactly the same properties.
However, through monitoring, Chen Jie could still sense that the gap between the uninfected and the infected groups had widened.
If things continue this way, perhaps over thousands of years, this land will become like the continent of Terra...
As a deity, Chen Jie received offerings from these people.
At the same time, a ritual was designed to collect blood samples, which will be studied in subsequent simulations.
The offerings... aside from the technological waste that has not decomposed over the years, the most numerous items were giant beast droppings.
Chen Jie reluctantly used the nano-sized Soul Steel to study its internal components.
Sure enough, it's just like a baby koala.
The activity of Originium in the feces of the behemoth after digestion and excretion is almost zero; this is a form of detoxification.
Almost zero is not completely zero. Even giant beasts can have indigestion. Combined with external contact, this is why these early humans were so susceptible to Oripathy.
but……
Something's not right!
How can a complete ecosystem consist only of giant beasts and demi-humans?
If a natural disaster were to completely destroy all life on Earth, then evolution should begin from the initial stages, starting with the most primitive single-celled organisms...
If any humans survived, how did they become these subhuman beings with animalistic physical characteristics?
Countless questions lingered in Chen Jie's mind.
……
Chapter 116 The White Fairy and the Shrine Maiden Hikari
To maintain their mystique, God would certainly not have much contact with humanity.
To guide those demi-humans, Chen Jie needs to find the help of some divine messengers, and he now has several options.
According to the "Xiongcheng County Annals", the two summoned soldiers, though loyal, lacked intelligence, as did the Soul Steel Soldiers after coupling with SP-2.
Unless he personally uses extradimensional hacking to manipulate things and pretends to be his own divine messenger...
However, Chen Jie had a better option: he released the fairy Ellie.
He also checked the condition of the cold hibernation nests inside the dimensional rift. There were no problems. Unlike when he woke up and traveled through a hundred years, the dimensional rift only counted the absolute time of his existence. Looking at the timer, less than a week had passed.
"They call me a celestial maiden, and an angel." The white fairy is also a playful person, otherwise she wouldn't travel the world and play various roles.
"Hmm, it's a rather wonderful name that suits this fairy."
To Chen Jie's surprise, the fairy Airi learned the language of those demi-humans in just two or three days.
"It's actually very simple~" Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly started lecturing Chen Jie.
"You know, deep down you've always been looking down on them."
"I had the idea of learning their language, but subconsciously I felt it was unnecessary to learn a barbaric language that I might never use in the future."
"Only with sincerity and love can one integrate into their community and learn how to communicate with them."
"Ah, this..." Chen Jie had a feeling that the white fairy was right.
However, he's not the type to stand up for himself after being lectured.
"I heard you've been teaching them some life skills and common sense lately?"
"uh-huh."
"Then you absolutely must not teach them to cook!"
"Hey, human, are you questioning the skills I've honed over a century?"
"Ah, indeed, a hundred years of honing has led to improvement; at least I don't have to worry about consuming the entire periodic table in one bite anymore."
The white fairy shrank back: "Is...is it really that exaggerated?"
"Just one question: when you cook now, do you still add that sparkly magic to your food?" Chen Jie pressed.
"Sometimes, I do. Although I know humans can't eat crystals, they're just so beautiful."
"..."
"But don't worry, I don't want to teach them to cook anymore!" she assured them, patting her chest.
"Don't want to... does that mean you've already taught it?" Chen Jie was very good at reading comprehension.
"I'd like to teach, but the kind of food they eat..."
Seeing the speechless expression on the white fairy's face, Chen Jie was taken aback and suddenly remembered the food of these demi-humans.
"...That kind of food, even fairy magic can't save it..."
A moment of silence ensued, as if no one was speaking.
"Let's change the subject."
"I think so too."
Suddenly, a commotion arose from below.
The high priest of the tribe, the one who led the kneeling, escorted a young girl to the top of the pyramid.
At the top of the tower, Chen Jie cast a huge statue, inside which was the main control room and monitoring room. He would sit there every day, drinking tea, spying, and doing research.
The high priest led the way and began some kind of ritual, while the girl was placed at the feet of the statue, looking like a sacrificial offering.
The white fairy and Chen Jie exchanged a knowing glance:
"I'm going downstairs."
She quickly figured out the whole story.
The priests were indeed prepared to kill her and offer her as a sacrifice to the gods, but not because they had a tradition of human sacrifice.
They said the little girl had offended the gods.
The girl's Originium Arts are a kind of healing ability; when used, she can sense people within a certain range who have lesions on their bodies and need treatment...
She suddenly said that she could sense that the deity was in great pain and needed healing.
The high priest considered this to be utter madness and decided to sacrifice her to the all-knowing and all-powerful god in order to gain forgiveness.
"The people in the tribe are terrified by her crazy talk. Even if you stop the human sacrifice, she won't be able to go back to a normal life," the white fairy lady analyzed.
Chen Jie covered his head: "I understand..."
Ignorance is truly harmful. This little girl is also a timid person. To draw an analogy, it's like saying in public that God is sick during the height of the Church of Light's power...
Those fanatical believers would immediately tie you to a stake and burn you alive, scattering your ashes everywhere.
"First tell the high priest that the gods are forgiving and will not punish you for your words. From now on, no form of human sacrifice is allowed."
"Then say, I need a priestess, a maid, I don't know how you should translate that, but that's the gist of it, just bring her along."
"I didn't expect you to like this model." The fairy Ellie made a disgusted face in the communication.
She looked only seven or eight years old, thin and malnourished, with a pale and sallow complexion. Her shoulder-length white hair was messy, dry, and dull, as if it had never been styled.
Water is scarce in the wilderness, and most people in the tribe never bathe in their entire lives. At most, they rub their skin with dry, fine sand, so her skin is also dirty and dark all over.
If I had to pick the most beautiful part of her body, it would probably be the pair of obsidian-like horns on the top of her head.
"I'm just curious about her Originium Arts, and I want to do some experiments that won't harm her."
For example, can these demi-humans eat normal food, besides Old Eight's secret-recipe mini burgers...?
The girl's perception was correct; Chen Jie was indeed in great pain!
Just like those people who were exposed to large amounts of radiation in nuclear power plants, more than a week has passed and most of his body has become ulcerated. He is only kept alive by the Soul Steel.
He didn't even dare to take off his SP-2; his body beneath the mech was as terrifying as a rotting zombie.
Soon, the fairy Ellie brought up the little girl, whose name was Rinka.
Before Chen Jie became their god, the people in the tribe did not have names. It was only after they moved into the Great Pyramid, saw the once beautiful and idyllic Earth in a documentary, and were ordered by Chen Jie and Ai Li, that they were given names.
Most of them are animals similar to themselves, or flowers and plants.
Perhaps because there are no plants on this land, they are very curious and longing for the food that the gods spoke of, which only needs to be planted in the ground and will grow on its own.
The water chestnut flower, small in size and white in color, does indeed bear some resemblance to her little white ball of fluff.
"Translate, let Ryoka use her Originium Arts on me."
A light shone from Rinka's hands, indicating that she was infected with Originium Disease and could use Originium Arts without a casting medium.
Inside the mech, the still intact cells began to replicate at high speed, filling in the damaged wounds.
But the genes are malfunctioning, and what's replicated isn't normal cells, but rather faulty proteins that accumulate together, resembling pus...
Sensing Chen Jie's pain, and unable to fulfill the divine command, Linghua burst into tears.
Chen Jie gently rubbed her head (emphasizing touching the corner), his tone as gentle and soothing as possible:
"It's not your problem; it's an interesting and potentially promising healing skill."
After the fairy Ellie finished translating his words, Chen Jie looked at the white fairy:
"Why don't you take her to take a shower first? I can smell a sour odor even through the air circulation in the mech..."
……
Chapter 117: Reclaim the Future for Future Civilization!
Ellie took her away, while Chen Jie began preparing various testing instruments.
The instrument was too large, and the space between dimensions was limited, so he naturally couldn't carry it with him.
Fortunately, Soul Steel can read pre-entered blueprints, and with the addition of irreplaceable materials such as glass, rubber, and plastic, it can function like a super-enhanced 3D material printer, quickly manufacturing low-tech instruments.
What does "low-tech content" mean?
Before he transmigrated, all the high-tech instruments in the 21st century were low-tech compared to Soul Steel.
The white fairy lady walked back first and reached out her hand to Chen Jie.
"Get me a piece of children's clothing."
Do I look like a pervert who carries around children's clothes with him?
"Take the Soul Steel and turn it into one piece."
"Good idea."
Chen Jie naturally didn't have data on children's clothing, but as long as he used data on regular clothes and made some adjustments through his personal terminal, the final clothes he made would be better than a piece of scrap metal or plastic.
