To ascend, I had no choice but to create games

Chapter 127: Chapter 107: Each’s Mission (Three More Updates)_1

Confused, Number One and Number Three turned their heads and stared blankly at Number Two before finally asking, “And then… what happened?”

“Aren’t you at all shocked? After passing through the black hole, we actually returned to our home planet. This is a huge discovery! Why did the bipeds, that is, humans leave? Why did our ancestors suddenly gain intelligence? Aren’t you curious about these things?”

“I’m more curious about why today’s pine nuts taste like salt and pepper,” Number Three said, holding the pine nut in front of him and asking dissatisfiedly.

“That’s because they were salt and pepper flavored when they were put in, idiot.”

Realizing that his companions were indifferent to this discovery, Number Two felt utterly despondent about his small team.

Could it be that he was the only one with a brain in this team?

The three of them were Technology Hunters. By exploring the relics of the bipeds, they excavated technology to promote technological progress.

Their technology had become quite twisted. The Squirrel Men already had the capability to travel through the universe, but agriculture was lagging, and their genetic technology was extremely underdeveloped.

Growth had hit a barrier, and the end of their civilization was drawing near.

It was an irreversible genetic degradation.

For reasons unknown, their genes had mutated, and some squirrels were showing plant characteristics that could not be reversed.

The diseased squirrels would grow increasingly stiff in their movements, roots would sprout from the soles of their feet, and they would start trying to attach themselves to the ground.

After that, their thought process would slow down, the squirrel would become dull and eventually turn completely into a plant.

As this process was at genetic level, the existing technology of the Squirrel Kingdom couldn’t identify the cause of the disease. This strange condition forced them to continue exploring the ruins, searching for that slim hope.

However, the universe was too dangerous. Horrific gamma storms, sudden supernova pulses, and aftereffects of stellar fluctuations from several hundred years ago could at any moment claim their lives.

The Shadow Apostles they encountered before were just one of the less dangerous things, but when triggered by unknown reasons, they would violently attack the living creatures around them. Having luckily escaped into a black hole and survived was an extremely fortunate event already.

But behind every calamity, there is a nut. This ancient proverb was so true.

They had actually returned to their home planet!

Knowing this place, hope ignited in Number Two’s heart.

The key to saving their race might be here!

“Beta, help look for signs of life.”

“Checking… check complete, they are everywhere.”

“Why are they everywhere?”

“There are Planet-Level Life Forms present.”

This time, not only Number Two but also Number One and Number Three gasped in surprise.

The universe is vast. In their Mirror Universe, Super Planet-level Life Forms were everywhere.

According to the size of the life forms, they categorized them as Satellite-Level Life Forms, Planet-Level Life Forms, Super Planet-Level Life Forms, Star-Level Life Forms, and so on.

The Shadow Followers they encountered, whose main body was also a Satellite-Level Life Form, still had a significant gap compared to Planet-Level Life Forms.

Now that the presence of Planet-Level Life Forms had been confirmed, Beta felt the need to be more cautious.

Looking around, he immediately saw a magnificent park not far away and pointed at it with his tiny paw, asking, “What is that place?”

“Large amounts of lifeform data detected, numerous early model explanation robots detected, numerous inanimate constructs detected…”

Hearing Beta’s successive announcements, Number Two became even more curious about that place.

In the midst of ruins all around, that vast and exquisite garden was like an oasis, hard not to draw attention.

Shaking off the roots on his paws, he said to Number One and Number Three, “Let’s go check it out. Remember to bring the nuts.”

“What about the spaceship?” Number One asked.

Turning to look at the spaceship, now broken into two halves, Number Two shook his head helplessly.

The spaceship was also a part of biped technology, of which they could only make simple imitations, but were no longer able to produce.

This one was a particularly traditional piece of equipment, and they no longer had the means to restore it.

Although it was a pity, its mission had come to an end now.

Petting the spaceship, Number Two could see many things from it.

Corrosive traces left by the Shadow Apostles, scrapes from small meteorites, scorch marks from Interstellar Pirate Weapons…

Each mark was evidence of them facing life and death together; every wound had a story behind it, and these stories together made a legend. And today, the legend might come to an end.

“Thank you, old friend.”

Patting the hull of the spaceship, Number Two called Number One and Number Three to take their belongings, and led by the floating Beta, they headed towards the Botanic Garden.

It took them a full three hours to reach the place.

Even though they had removed their space suits, the journey was still exhausting.

And when they got there, they realized that it was even bigger than they had imagined.

The three-meter-high wall reached the clouds in the eyes of the squirrels. The long wall extended all the way to the horizon, reminding them that the place was bigger than they had thought.

However, squirrels were natural wall climbers.

Climbing along the wall, when they scaled over it, the beautiful scenery on the other side left them stunned.

Water-loving plants were seen everywhere, delicate trees were interspersed among them, and blue flowers bloomed in the flower beds, everything looked so perfect.
