Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Then, the picture quickly flashed.

Theresa and Princess Summer saw that an embryo surrounded by golden threads was growing fast. When it was still an infant, its brain had been highly developed, and it had gone through a long and arduous education phase in the virtual space.

Jade took good care of the baby. The remaining resources in the remains of Jade nourished her body, which was getting more and more healthy. She grew up alone but stubbornly.

Due to the lack of energy, the breeding process was very slow. The main concern was that too much information would be inputted in the blink of an eye, which might lead to the explosion of the embryo’s brain. Therefore, the breeding process could only be carried out slowly and subtly.

After hundreds of years of breeding, Jade had welcomed a new captain, Kelly Connor.

At this moment, the debris of Jade had been sealed into a world fragment that was very close to the Emerald Continent.

This barren world, which had no sunlight, no energy, and few native creatures, was like the shadow of the Emerald Continent and the opposite of everything beautiful.

Captain Kelly marched forward alone in the dark pathways, the cooling engine furnaces, and the ragged fuel tanks, inspecting the invisible army like a ghost.

Her eyes pierced through the shell of the starship, through the twisted barrier of the world fragments, and into the Emerald Continent.

At this moment, on the Jadeite Continent, the traitors such as First Officer Quake had established a preliminary order.

The kingdom, the knights, the magic, the brilliant sunlight, the abundant resources, the beautiful scenery, everything was so beautiful.

However, the dream-like life of 1% of the crew members was only possible at the cost of the lives of 99% of the crew members. The souls that were unwilling to perish would eventually raise a storm of death.

On Jade, Captain Kelly, who had inherited the mission of Captain Gao Zunlong, repaired the warship and woke up the hibernators who were still alive.

It was a pity that she encountered insurmountable difficulties in both jobs.

First were the resources.

When the traitors such as First Officer Quake left Jade, they took away almost all the fuel, weapons, and resources. The things that they could not take away were mostly destroyed by them. In the extreme shortage of resources, the repair work of Jade had to be carried out slowly in units of ‘ten thousand years’.

Secondly, most of the hibernators sealed inside the Emerald had been killed the moment their nutrition and energy circulation system were cut off. Only a few of them had survived. But even if they were woken up by force, they would not be able to get rid of the osteoporosis, malnutrition, and brain atrophy caused by the prolonged hibernation because of insufficient food and drugs. They were no longer tough sailors and brave soldiers. They were just a bunch of dying old men.

But Captain Kelly had no other options except to count on the old men.

She stimulated the old people with the last bit of the strengthening drugs and woke up the pride and glory of the Primeval Civilization in the deepest part of their souls. She led the old people, who had exploited all their vitality in the blink of an eye and thus mutated into crazy devils, out of the debris of Jade, out of the world fragments, and toward the peaceful, sunny Emerald Continent.

It was the ‘Battle of the Demonic Tribulation’.

While he was talking, magnificent, bloody, and cruel shadows were dancing on the retina of Theresa and Princess Summer.

The tall, muscular nobles, the elegant, mysterious sorcerers, and the righteous knights were in sharp contrast to the ragged, hideous, and twisted ‘demons’.

But Theresa and Princess Summer could not tell which side represented ‘justice’ and which side represented ‘evil’.

All in all, the bloody civil wars that had taken place countless times in the history of mankind and the Primeval Civilization had come to a meaningless end again.

The peaceful dream was shattered. The traitors were screaming and the traitors were roaring. They turned the new world into a hell of devils and danced crazily in the hell together.

“At that time, it was not long before First Officer Quake and his companions arrived in the Jadeite Continent. The traitors such as First Officer Quake were still in possession of a lot of advanced weapons and technology that they brought back from the Jadeite. They were known as ‘artifacts’ in the legends. The intimidating ‘demons’ were just a bunch of old men venting their anger and hatred.

Jade said calmly, “With the help of the ‘artifact’, the traitors such as First Officer Quake finally defeated the old soldiers who were still loyal to their mission. They slandered the avengers as dirty, evil, ugly, and extremely brutal demons and sealed them in the world fragments again. Even Captain Kylie lost her precious life in the battle of revenge.

“The traitors took a long breath in relief. They celebrated and went on living their carefree, peaceful, and happy lives, believing that such a life could last forever, at least for thirty to fifty thousand years.

“But they did not realize the real reason why Captain Kelly started the war.

“No. Not completely. Captain Kelly is very clear that the traitors such as First Officer Quake still boast tremendous strength. The loyal but dying legions of the old are not enough to win the war.

“The key is resources.

“Captain Kelly wants to fight for some precious resources for Jade, which is riddled with holes and about to be scrapped. In particular, she wants to fight for the resources that will nurture the intact life seeds, which are the new crew members of Jade.

“If Jade is going to repair itself, it will need tremendous resources as the ‘first bucket of gold’. If it is sealed in the world fragment all the time, it will never be able to get the resources, and the progress of the repair will be far away.

“Therefore, Captain Kelly initiated the ‘battle of the apocalypse’. On the surface, she was trying to crush the new world that First Officer Quake and the rest of the crew members had created. But in fact, the old legion was just bait to distract First Officer Quake’s attention. While the battle was in full swing, another squad was collecting the resources on the Jadeite Continent crazily. Their collection point was the Fallen Forest in the Armageddon Mountain.

Theresa and Princess Summer exclaimed at the same time.

So that was the case.

As it turned out, the Fallen Forest in the Armageddon Mountain had been reaped a long time ago. No wonder it was as terrifying as a forbidden area of life right now.

“Captain Kelly’s strategic purpose has been achieved.

Jade said, “Although the battle of the apocalypse ended with our failure and the fall of Captain Kelly, she and the old soldiers brought new hope to Jade. With the resources that they collected from the Jade Continent, new fetuses were born. The most basic life-support and resource-circulation systems were repaired. Fresh air was injected into the cabins one after another, and the power furnaces were reignited. The unyielding flames of war were burning furiously again!
