Chapter 154: The Day the God Descended

Year 283.

History has recorded many past events, all of which are traces of civilisation.

From weakness to strength, gradually dominating the entire world, no life could match them, not even the mighty snow, which eventually fell at their feet.

Every time Mo Tuo Si read these historical records in the library, his heart would swell with emotion.

Their race was truly weak, and in this world, they were dwarfed by the giants. Even a casual stroll was risky, and the grass on the streets was taller than them, and a small stone was heavier than them.

The turning point in history was their ancestor, Dada Ji Ting, who, according to historical records, had obtained the divine realm and mastered the art of toolmaking. With these tools, he defeated creatures ten times and a hundred times his size.

They called Dada Ji Ting 'Yu', and the god 'Yu Li'.

Mo Tuo Si extended his hand, which was made up of several flexible antennae-like tentacles. Each one appeared delicate, but they were incredibly resilient.

His body was also long and thin, like a ribbonfish, but his structure was not that of a fish; it was more like an insect. His exoskeleton allowed him to stand upright like the letter 'I', and his lower body was round, resembling a shuttlecock with a ribbonfish attached to the base.

His head, however, was large, shaped like a mallet. The top of his head had a suction cup, which primitive creatures like him used to attach themselves to the rocks by the water's edge.

These antennae were designed to dangle into the water as bait. Once prey took the bait, they could use these antennae to kill their prey and then slowly drag it out of the water.

Two of these antennae were particularly special.

One had a tuft of fur at the tip, which served as bait. This fur emitted a sweet fragrance, but the antennae also had a barbed hook with a venomous sting. The other special antenna looked thicker than the others; this was their feeding apparatus.

Their method of movement was simple; they hopped along using the pad beneath them. Due to their small size, only 10-13cm tall and weighing no more than 60g, each hop covered a considerable distance of 30-40cm.

At that moment, another creature like him walked by, its body colour appearing pale.

"Good child, there aren't many children your age in this library."

Mo Tuo Si raised his head and asked, "Elder Xi Li Zi Xi, does the Yu Li mentioned in the books really exist?"

Xi Li Zi Xi laughed, "Of course. It was Yu Li who led us from weakness to strength. Without Yu Li's guidance, we would still be one of the weakest creatures in this world, and most other creatures would consider us food. We would live in darkness and fear."

"What does Yu Li look like?"

"Er..." Xi Li Zi Xi was momentarily lost for words.

"It was too long ago. Yu lived in the era before the era before the era of 'Zi'. At that time, we were still naive and ignorant, and writing had not yet emerged. The only records we had were in the form of paintings."

"Yu Li is as dazzling as the light in the sky. We cannot see his figure or his appearance because he is too great and too powerful. He created everything in this world, including us."

"In this world, we are his most beloved race. For this reason, he bestowed wisdom upon us."

Mo Tuo Si asked again, perplexed, "But we aren't the only ones with wisdom, are we?"

"There's also the snow in the north. They are strong, powerful, and possess an ancient civilisation and remarkable wisdom."

When talking about the snow, Mo Tuo Si's eyes filled with fear.

Originally, they were the snow's favourite food. The snow brought cold, freezing the surface of the water, and then harvested everything in the lake, including them.

Xi Li Zi Xi also felt fear.

"They are our enemies, not created by Yu Li, but by Yu Li's enemy, Luo."

"We bear a heavy responsibility: to eliminate the snow. Then, Yu Li will descend again and reward us."

This conversation left Mo Tuo Si with much to ponder.

His dream was to be as knowledgeable as Xi Li Zi Xi, his head filled with wisdom.

As the sky began to darken, he bid farewell to Xi Li Zi Xi. Darkness brought cold, and it was not safe to be outside when the snow was active.

He left the library, hopping along a small path.

However, at that moment, the sky, which should have been gradually darkening, began to brighten. Mo Tuo Si was puzzled. He turned his body so that one of his eyes on either side of his body faced the sky.

Then he saw it: a new light appeared, dazzling, brighter than the original light.

It was growing larger.

Mo Tuo Si felt his entire body trembling, not just him, but the ground beneath him as well. Everything in this world was trembling as the light approached.

"Yu Li!"

He couldn't imagine anyone else possessing such power.

He lay his body on the ground, completely relaxed, not using a single ounce of strength, as a sign of reverence.

And as he happened to have one eye looking up, he saw the light grow brighter and then suddenly dim.

In its place, a giant object fell from the sky. He couldn't describe this object; he had never seen anything like it before.

"Could that be Yu Li's true form?"

"Much larger than the snow."

Mo Tuo Si thought to himself.

Just as he thought Yu Li was about to crash into the ground, he saw him stop in mid-air. Countless rays of light emerged from his body, illuminating the earth. Unlike the previous blinding light, this light was gentle, turning the entire sky into daylight.

Then a beam of light shone on the ground, no, not just one.

Various lights appeared everywhere, and one of them was near Mo Tuo Si. He saw a giant object, a creature he had never seen before, so enormous it was hard to imagine, ten times and a hundred times larger than the snow.

It lowered its head and looked at the little self, and the Muto was so scared that it felt its whole body was paralysed.

"The life of the shore people."

"I heard that when they encounter a strong enemy, they will choose to pretend to be dead, and the intelligence should be correct."

Bodo is a member of the War Beast tribe, and he is not a soldier, but a researcher.

In fact, there are no soldiers on this battleship, and this is the edge of the Federal New Star Region, and outside there is an endless starry sea, with hundreds of millions of explorers exploring, and no higher civilizations have been found for the time being.

The only civilization discovered is on this planet in this star system.

The first discoverer was an explorer, who found that there was a kind of hairy beast on this planet, which looked somewhat similar to the near-relative monkey of the human race, walked on two legs, and had somewhat thicker hands.

Of course, their bodies are not quite the same, as this kind of creature, which is only about 1 metre tall, has a stout body like a sphere, and their hands grow closer to the chest, and the back is covered with thick white hair and thorns, and under the hair is a thick layer of flesh that keeps them warm.

In fact, they are more like an upside-down drop of water, with the drop's tail making up their tail, and two stout legs appearing on either side of the tail, and the drop's head is their head and the collection of all their organs, and their hands are not as flexible as the human race, because they have no fingers, only two hard structures like a bird's beak that can open and close.

Because these creatures like to use a lot of saltpetre to freeze the lake surface, and since the atmosphere of this planet is relatively cold, this method is very easy to freeze a small area of the lake.

The explorer named them roughly as the Ice-making tribe.

When they found the Ice-making tribe, the explorers were also very surprised to find another intelligent race, which was the shore people, who lived on the shore of the lake and played the role of a fishing man.

The explorers were very happy to report the news that two intelligent races had been discovered on one planet at the first opportunity, because the Civilisation Federation stipulated that reporting the discovery of a new intelligent race would be rewarded with 100,000 energy coins, which was a considerable fortune.

Moreover, it was discovered directly that two were reported directly, and 200,000 energy coins were rewarded.

And in order to encourage the reporting of the discovery of intelligent races, the Federation also gives other forms of policy preferences to the discoverers of intelligent races, such as to the female, such as tax concessions, and again, such as free parking in the Federation's public star ports, etc., which are attractive points.

At the same time, to prevent explorers from smuggling intelligent races, the Federation has set the punishment for smuggling intelligent races in the Federation as a very serious crime, and all participants, those who know and do not report, will be deprived of their Federation citizenship, and then sent to the planet where the smuggled intelligent race is located to serve as a labourer.

Of course, everyone understands that this is a different kind of death.

There is no such thing happening now, because the civilisation in the universe is still relatively rare.

And the Federation does not prohibit the trading of non-intelligent life, and encourages the discovery of new life, and every valuable new species will be rewarded with 1 to 10 Federation coins and awarded a badge.

It seems rare, but in fact, if a life planet is found, the number of races discovered is usually counted in tens of thousands.

Including the explorers who discovered this planet, after reporting, they applied for a race assessment, and about 200 years ago, 15,000 machines scanned all the species on this planet.

Finally, the number of valuable species was determined to be 1.87 million, and those explorers were rewarded with 3.56 million energy coins, plus the previous 200,000, a total of 3.76 million, which is a huge amount of wealth, and at the same time, the Federation official gifts any items that do not need to be taxed, and the recipient can receive the full amount of the bonus.

After receiving this information, the Civilisation Federation began to send scholars to study the planet, to find out what is so special about this planet that it can give birth to two intelligent lives, and at the same time to investigate whether there is a third one.

Bodo carefully studied this little guy, who is not as heavy as a piece of horny skin on his body.

Under Bodo's gaze, Muto's whole body organs were almost directly exhausted, after all, one is 60g, the other is 17 tons, and the difference in size between the two can reach 280,000 times, if it were the human race, it would be equivalent to a 50-metre-high first-generation Godzilla standing in front of an ordinary human.

"Yuli..." Muto felt that it couldn't go on like this, and he shouted out.

Bodo was first startled, and then the quark machine in his body formed a computer, borrowed the electricity from the battleship that was parked 10,000 metres high, plus the machine that had been sent out before to record the language of the shore people, and he instantly knew what Muto's Yuli meant.

He found it a little funny.

The self would also have what is called a god.

If you want to say that it is a god, the most recent and popular, the one who is closest to the so-called god, is on the same battleship as him.

After all, being able to invent such a technology as laser transmission is simply to raise the level of civilisation in the Federation by a few tenths, and this is not a god?

And after receiving the highest award, he received a bonus of 10 million energy coins, and he was able to donate all this bonus, which was unbelievable to Bodo, that was a lot of money, and he couldn't even think of it in his lifetime.

10 million, the whole Civilisation Federation now has an estimated 100,000 companies worth 10 million, at most 70,000 to 80,000, and he got it in cash, and companies with such cash flow are generally worth billions of dollars.

These conglomerates can be among the top in a star system.

He took back his thoughts, and then said, "Get up, I'm not a Yuli."

The quark machine in his body automatically gathered at his vocal cords, and then through the signal transmitted by his nerves, it caused his vocal cords to make a sound, and these sounds were all translated into the language of the shore people.

If there were no vocal cords, the quark machine would also pull other muscles to make a sound by high-frequency vibration, and even if you didn't like the sound in your body, you could use other machines to replace it.

And if you don't like to make a sound, you can directly chat in text on the network, or you can even omit the text, and let the quark machine transmit the neural signal directly, for example, the War Beast tribe sends out a neural signal, and the recipient is the human race, and it will be translated into the neural signal of the human race, and the quark machine in the recipient's body will directly transmit it to the brain.

In the Civilisation Federation, the daily use is Chinese characters and Chinese, and because of the existence of the quark machine, communication has become very easy.

When Muto heard Bodo speak, he was suddenly less afraid of being able to communicate.

He asked curiously, "Who are you?"

Bodo said, "You can think of me as... er... a guest who helps your civilisation, I come from the Civilisation Federation, a collection of countless civilisations, it is powerful, stable, peaceful, rich, and has technology and infinite knowledge."

"The purpose of our coming is to invite you to join us."

Muto only heard one thing.

"Infinite knowledge? How much is that? More than the lake water?"

Bodo laughed.

"Lake? No, it's more than the sky you see, and any individual can only glimpse a corner of it in their lifetime, but even this corner, every individual is obsessed with it and can't extricate themselves, it is so beautiful, like a cup of sweet wine, not only is it fragrant when you drink it, but it is also wonderful when you savour it."

Muto listened, and he was captivated.

In his world, is there anything more wonderful than knowledge?

Bodo couldn't think of it, and he didn't expect that the little guy he saw the other day would one day become one of the top scholars in the Federation.
