"Run!"
"We can't escape! We are only the size of a strand of his hair!”
Countless bugapes that were running away collapsed to the ground.
While everyone was screaming, a young bugape stubbornly looked up at the sky." You're a giant beast. Are you here to eat us? You killed my father, my mother, and my brother. Why are we so weak..."
Xu Zhi lowered his head. He was a little surprised that this young bugape was brave enough to question him.
Then, I'll choose you.
Xu Zhi gently reached out and placed the bugape in his palm.
The young bugape's mind instantly went blank.
The palm of this giant creature was like a boundless continent, and it was only the size of a delicate palm print.
It raised its head again. The giant's eyes were like a furnace, like the dazzling sun in the sky. Its huge face was bathed in holy white light. Its face could not be seen clearly, but it carried a majestic and vast divinity.
Xu Zhi's face was blocked by the hive, so they could only see a blurry face that was emitting a hazy glow.
Xu Zhi dragged the tiny bugape with one hand, his eyes calm.""Gilgamesh, do you want to change everything?”
The bugape suddenly trembled and screamed loudly on its palm." You can actually communicate!! What kind of beast are you? In this world, there was actually a 10,000-foot-tall giant with intelligence! How could there be such a perfect existence!？”
He could not help but tremble as he said,"Also, you called me: Gilgamesh?"
"A name is also one of the manifestations of wisdom.”
Xu Zhi held him in his hand and laid him flat in front of his eyes as he answered calmly.
Gilgamesh stood on his palm and looked at the behemoth's huge, crystalline pupils that were comparable to the sun and moon. He suddenly said,""We can all communicate! Then we are the same species, all intelligent species. Why, why didn't you save us! You're clearly so powerful! So majestic!"
They did not know what kind of existence they were. They only thought that they were a kind of intelligent giant beast similar to these giant beasts. Xu Zhi did not intend to explain anything.
Xu Zhi dragged him along with his palm and strode across the mountains and rivers.
A large area of trees was flattened. He let this weak bugape look down at the entire world from his palm. His loud voice resounded in the sky,
"Look at this world. Every species is equal. You are the same as every plant and every animal. Why should I only save you? Just because you have intelligence?"
Gilgamesh was instantly rendered speechless.
Suddenly, he began to despair and shouted," Then why did you come to us?
Xu Zhi said," No one can save you, and don't try to think of anyone who can save you. Only you can save yourself. But I can give you the means of civilization. You can save yourself."”
"Civilization? What is that?“
Gilgamesh looked down in shock.
A strong wind blew. For the first time, he looked down at the vast green land from the perspective of the clouds. The mountains and rivers were all under his eyes. Countless beasts fled under the feet of the giant beast of wisdom, roaring, forming an extremely shocking scene.
What a fantastic high altitude scenery.
What a terrifying and great power!
" You're asking what civilization is?"
Xu Zhi had never thought that he would have to explain their problems to this new race.
He thought for a moment and gave his answer." Civilization is tinder, civilization is knowledge, civilization is order, and civilization is also the strongest force that intelligent species use to protect themselves.”
" Civilization is the power that intelligent species like us use to protect ourselves?”Gilgamesh murmured.
Xu Zhi walked back to the canyon and gently placed Gilgamesh on his shoulder. He then took out the miniature potted plant from the backpack on his back. The welcoming pine was dug up and buried on the ground.
This welcoming pine tree was only 60 centimeters long. It was winding and old, but for this miniature land, it was already an endless divine tree that towered into the clouds. Looking up, clouds and mist surrounded it, and the huge winding tree body could not be seen.
"Do you see this tree I planted? If you want to obtain the power of civilization, show your courage and climb up the divine tree. This is my test for you, a test of wisdom and courage."
Xu Zhi placed the custom-made metallic silver greatsword, a match soaked in kerosene, and a transparent capsule of termite juice that he had failed to obtain before on the top of the tree.
" These are the three treasures of civilization."
" The Sword of Damocles is a weapon that protects civilization. Unlike the barbaric species that spread across the land, only those who can borrow the power of tools are intelligent species.”
" Torch, burning with scorching flames. It's the bridge that maintains civilization, and mastering the fire seed is the origin of civilization.”
"There's one last bottle of liquid. It's the blood of power. Only the bravest warriors in the world can consume it. If they can't survive death, they will possess unparalleled power!”
" If you want to change the fate of your race, climb up the divine tree before the torch is extinguished and obtain the three treasures of civilization.”
Xu Zhi gently placed the young bugape on the ground. Then, while it was still in shock, he strode over the mountains and left.
"Cell division acceleration, 100 times!”
Xu Zhi ordered the hive the moment he walked out.
The earth, which had returned to normal speed, began to split and divide at a faster rate.
In an instant, the movements of the entire land began to move at a crazy speed, constantly forming all kinds of afterimages. The trees quickly grew and withered, and the animals turned into afterimages, rapidly aging and dying.
He had added kerosene to the match, so it could burn for about 30 seconds before it went out.
However, for the land that had been accelerated for a hundred years, these 30 seconds were equivalent to several days before it extinguished.
In other words, his trial of the divine tree would last for many days.
" Time is relative. It's the embodiment of the movement of matter…Their brain nerve cells and body cells were a hundred times faster. To them, time was a hundred times faster.
A match that could burn for a moment could also burn for a few days. In their worldview, a match was not a momentary firework, but a torch that could burn for a few days.”
Xu Zhi recalled that saying,"
Small knowledge is not as good as big knowledge, small years are not as good as big years, how can you know this? The morning fungus does not know the day and night! Crayfish do not know spring and autumn!
What they thought was a long period of time, in my eyes, was only a short moment.
After Xu Zhi left, he used his binoculars to clearly see the scene under the divine tree. The young bugape called a few of its companions, and with a determined expression, they quickly climbed up the divine tree together.
In Xu Zhi's eyes, the ants were so fast that they only left afterimages behind. In just a few seconds, they had fallen down countless times before they tried their best to climb up again. In about ten seconds, they had successfully climbed to the top of the Tree of God.
However, to them, countless days had passed. They had failed countless times.
Their movements were too fast.
At the peak of the divine tree, standing on the lush green canopy, Gilgamesh raised his sword high. He seemed to have said something and done something before turning into an afterimage and descending.
Xu Zhi was curious and could not help but ask the hive,""What are they talking about?"
The Insect Nest sub-brain showed Xu Zhi the scene from earlier.
"A giant beast of wisdom. There's actually such a terrifying giant intelligent species living in this world! It was a giant that was 100,000 feet tall!”
Gilgamesh conquered the divine tree, raised the Sword of Damocles high, and waved it over his head.
He looked down at the scenery under the divine tree. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and the bone armor on his shoulders was black and shiny. His determined face was suddenly filled with confidence.
"We also have intelligence. In the future, we will also be like that giant beast of wisdom! Every member of the clan had great Divine Power! It had the power to make countless giant beasts flee! I must lead my people to stand at the top and let the fire of civilization spread across the land.”
This moment was recorded as an eternity.
Tens of millions of years later, the ancient Sumerian Dynasty, which was once the most prosperous and short-lived dynasty in this land, was discovered from archaeology. The Sumerian historical hymn they wrote for the great king, Genesis, was discovered.
The most ancient text, the Ancient History of Sumer, recorded:
The giant beast of wisdom was ten thousand feet tall, covered in white light, and had a holy face. It stepped on the mountains and rivers, descended the divine tree, and set up a trial of wisdom. It handed the three treasures of civilization, the torch, the holy sword, and the blood of power, to the young Hero King, Gilgamesh.
