Super Island Tycoon

And she was just their little granddaughter. Although Jiang Cheng didn’t need food to replenish his body’s energy, he would not refuse others’ kindness towards him.

He took a sip of water, unwrapped the dry meat, took a small piece, and put it in his mouth to chew.

An elder spoke facing Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng turned his head to look at that young girl.

The girl translated for him: ”Master Dalken asked where you come from?”

Jiang Cheng replied: ”I come from the Solar System, Water Ball, I am a human from Water Ball.” The girl then conveyed this to them, but judging by their expressions, they clearly didn’t know where Water Ball was.

Despite the low temperature, this was undoubtedly a suitable place for conversation beside the warm fire. As time passed, Jiang Cheng gradually learned about their background.

First, let me introduce the girl. Jiang Cheng noticed that when the elders called the girl, the syllables they uttered sounded similar to the ”Yan” in the Hua Family’s dialect. This name, to describe a beautiful girl, couldn’t be more appropriate, so Jiang Cheng privately helped her with the name ”Yuan Ran”.

Later, he told Yanran about this and explained the meaning of the term to her. She liked it very much.

The planet that Yanran was on was originally a satellite of a certain planet. The climate here was pleasant, the environment beautiful; various kinds of lifeforms lived here, including Yanran’s race. Of course, there were far more of them back then than now.

The civilization on their planet was quite advanced. Yanran once went to their planet to learn knowledge. As Jiang Cheng spoke of this, he noticed the bow beside her. It was definitely a bow made with modern craftsmanship, and not only that, there was even a sight installed on it. However, the arrows paired with this bow looked quite rough, clearly made as temporary works.

The people of this planet cherished peace, were indifferent by nature, and never thought that one day disaster would descend from the heavens.

One day, a group of asteroids struck their planet, not only knocking it out of its original orbit, away from their planet, making them drift in the endless universe but also almost wiping out all the life on this planet.

That beautiful planet no longer existed, ”desolation” became the new synonym for this planet. Alarmingly, those creatures that did not die mutated due to intense radiation.

For example, the gigantic insects Jiang Cheng encountered in the sand were originally just ordinary locusts, and the serpent-like creature he encountered by the great river was, in fact, just a snake.

Jiang Cheng encountered the alien girl Yanran on a nameless planet and met her companions. At their camp, by the warm fire, Jiang Cheng learned the history of this planet. The fire crackled, occasionally making noises, as the people sitting by the fire were engrossed in their conversation.

Yanran and her companions, in a sense, were a superpower race. They possessed extraordinary longevity, which allowed them to witness everything that had happened on this planet.

After the crushing cold of the radiation passed, they emerged from the mountains, trying to find surviving companions, but it was clear that others weren’t as lucky as they were.

The asteroid impact came suddenly, many creatures on this planet simply had no chance to hide.

Yanran and her companions were hunting in the mountains at that time. When the asteroid hit, it was nighttime, and they, just like now, were chatting in the cave, preparing to sleep.

The sudden sound of impacts and roars startled them, the vibrations were so intense that some of them even fell to the ground. The terror drove them out of the cave, and some of them got injured, hitting their heads during the chaotic escape.

When they reached the outside of the cave, what lay in front of them was a scene like hell.

Dense smoke rose outside, flames were everywhere, people were crying, shouting, yelling, patting the flames on their bodies while running, trying to find a place of refuge. Everywhere were fires, everywhere was smoke, and strong tremors kept coming from afar.

Another deafening impact, a massive shockwave swept towards them, and in the blink of an eye, those still running forward disappeared.

Yanran and her group retreated back to the mountains, fearful and trembling with fright. After all, they had never seen such a sight before.

After the outside turned calm, someone among them wanted to go outside.

Only one night had passed, yet the outside world had completely changed its appearance, filled with dense smoke and fire everywhere. Large tracts of trees were snapped and broken; within their view, there was not a single intact building, only ruins and the bodies of various creatures scattered around.

Perhaps it’s because their physical constitutions were different; while they stayed in the cave, relying on the food and things they brought, they got through the initial period until they had to go out to find food. The radiation seemed to have not affected them much; it only caused certain damage to their appearance, but their bodies remained basically intact. An elderly person reached out their hand; he originally took on the task of finding food, and his hands were full of scars.

They did not venture far from the mountains, only searching for food or hunting nearby, but as time went by, they found hunting became more and more difficult. The once innocent animals changed more and more, becoming more aggressive, and even among their companions, someone perished under the claws of those creatures.

The instinct to survive made them stronger and stronger. Gradually, the environment began to stabilize, and they attempted to explore far away, but always returned halfway, as various kinds of highly aggressive monsters stopped them from moving forward.

Yanran grew up, and those people gradually aged. The hunting task gradually fell on Yanran’s shoulders.

Fortunately, Guo Ran was once an excellent archery athlete, she had the talent in archery, and even won a championship in the archery event at an interstellar sports meeting.

She was agile, reacted quickly, and both her strength and endurance surpassed others.

This way, relying on her exceptional physical abilities, keen reflexes, and superb archery skills, Yanran could always hunt down enough food, but with the decrease in prey, she had to expand her hunting range, which was one of the reasons why she met Jiang Cheng today.

After they finished telling their story, Jiang Cheng pondered silently. According to their description, he felt it wasn’t an asteroid impact but rather resembled an attack akin to a nuclear weapon, although he might be mistaken, as after all, their description wasn’t detailed enough since they were hiding in the cave when the attack happened.

Similarly, those people were extremely curious about Jiang Cheng. Traveling alone through the universe was an awe-inspiring ability, something they had never encountered in their long lives.
