Summoning Mercenaries

Chapter 176: Ancient humans and forerunners

Immediately, Ares told Kent and Dr. Halsey all of what had happened in the ancient times.

The first is human beings. In 2 million BC, Homo sapiens, the ancestor of human beings, left the African continent and began to travel to all parts of the earth, and eventually all over the world.

Then it slowly evolved into humans, and finally began to develop civilization on the earth. Slowly, science and technology became more and more advanced, and it has reached the level of interstellar civilization.

Although the overall strength is lower than the Forerunner, but with a kind of ancient prophet (the leading race of the Star Alliance), the alliance strength between humans and the prophet surpasses the Forerunner.

The ancient prophets, which can also be called Saint Sims, are an elegant and intelligent race (only in ancient times), paying great attention to beauty, eternity and youth.

After reaching an alliance with humans, it became the main force of Orion's spiral arms.

The last is the forerunners. Their civilization originated 15 million years ago, more than a bit longer than human beings, and based on the current time, they became the overlord of the galaxy 150,000 years ago.

The forerunners have a very high and advanced technological system, and use the ancient "mantle" as the foundation of belief and society.

Because of the disharmony between the ideals and the human race, the two races then began to war.

As for the prophets...they are too few in number. Although humans are allied with the prophets, they still can't resist the offensive of the forerunners.

However, human beings belong to a persevering race, and they will not give up until the end, so the war between humans and the forerunners lasted for nearly 50,000 years.

But the emergence of the last species broke the deadlock, and that was the Flood.

This species of Flood Demon was created by the early overlord and pioneer of the galaxy.

If the pioneers can be summed up in plain and easy-to-understand terms, they would be God, Nuwa, Fuxi, and all kinds of gods and gods that we humans think.

Pioneers spread the fire of life in the galaxy. All known intelligent life was ‘made’ by pioneers. After they reached a certain level of technology, they began to leave the galaxy and travel to other galaxies.

Even Ares has never understood how advanced the pioneer’s technology is, but they may have survived out of the physical body. According to Ares’s original words:

"Pioneers walked in the world in many forms, with flesh and blood or spirits forever, evolution over and over, death, rebirth, exploration, and sowing the fire of life among the galaxies."

Pioneers created Pioneers and Humans successively, and observed which of the two races can inherit their mantle.

The arrogant forerunner, when he became the overlord of the galaxy, had already begun to treat the intelligent life in the galaxy with the mentality of an heir.

Due to the arrogant and arrogant attitude of the forerunners, the forerunners replaced them from the pre-determined position of heirs and replaced them with more perceptual humans with tenacity and emotion as their heirs.

This is the ultimate reason for the disagreement between mankind and the forerunner, so the two sides began a war that lasted tens of thousands of years.

Before the war began, the pioneers introduced unsuspecting pioneers into the trap, and then successfully eliminated most of the pioneers, leaving only a few pioneers in the entire civilization to escape from the outer galaxy.

At first he was a kind, gentle, and close pioneer. Because he was betrayed by the forerunner, he fell into the abyss of hatred. The biological weapon they created with their only resources, the Flood, was used to destroy all the wisdom in the galaxy. life.

That is to say, when the war between humans and the forerunners reached a deadlock, the demons swept in with the force of destruction, and at first they only caused turmoil in the outer reaches of the galaxy.

The arrogant pioneers did not regard the Flood as their main enemy, and were still attacking humans.

But in the end, after the Flood had absorbed enough intelligent life and could assimilate the Forerunner’s battleship, the Forerunners, humans, and prophets discovered the horror of the Flood.

Ever since, the power of the entire galaxy gathered together.

Human beings sacrifice themselves by relying on the advantage of a large number of people, and after being immunized, they actively let the flood demon infect, and the flood demon cannot spread again after infecting humans.

Then, at the expense of three-quarters of the population, human beings solved a large number of floods in an instant, giving hope to intelligent life.

But the forerunners are fighting against humans at this time. After all, the principle of killing you while you are sick is universal throughout the universe.

Due to the devastating blow from the forerunners, mankind was directly downgraded from the original interstellar civilization to the Stone Age, and the prophets could only bow their heads.

Although the Forerunner solved the human heart disease, the Flood demon rushed in after the wretched development, so the Forerunner also suffered great consequences for their two betrayals.

Finally, the forerunners created a weapon that can destroy intelligent life in the entire galaxy, and that is the halo.

And the manufacturing terminus named "Ark" is placed outside the galaxy, which can control all the auras in the galaxy, and can even create a halo after devouring an earth-like planet.

In the end, the forerunner still fulfilled the responsibility of the work as the overlord of the galaxy, copied and stored the DNA of all intelligent life, and opened the ultimate weapon-the halo.

In an instant ~lightnovelpub.net~, the halo wiped out all the "food" of the flood demon, and the flood demon parasitic on the intelligent life died instantly.

As for the spores cannot find a host, they can only starve to death in the end.

When the epidemic of the Flood was under control in the galaxy, the halo left by the forerunners, as well as the artificial intelligence on the halo and the Ark, began to work.

The DNA copied on the Ark began to read and write. Except for the Forerunner race, all intelligent life has been revived, and mankind has returned to the home planet Earth to develop civilization again.

As for Ares, he was once a member of the death squad, but because of his status as the son of a general, he was protected by his tribe and fell asleep on Mars. Fortunately, he escaped the impact of the halo.

But Ares knew that the Forerunner guys were still obsessed with the Flood, and they arrested them for research.

He guessed that there must be places to study the flood demon on the ark and various auras, and it is very likely that there are still flood demon spores remaining.

Hearing what Ares said, Kent also nodded his head. After all, the ancient history of this world is similar to the ultra-ancient world of "Halo".

It can be said that the forerunner race is not only domineering, but also a manager, and it has a strong sense of responsibility. Of course, it is also a race that likes to betray a lot...

Having said this, Dr. Halsey's face changed and said, "No! The government can't let the government open the remains of the suburbs of New Mombasa in Africa. The old guy Quill told me that the end of the passage is the Ark!

If there is a flood there, the galaxy will fall into disaster again! "

Hearing what Dr. Halsey said, Ares didn't say much, and just nodded heavily.

But Kent shook his head and said, "Doctor, do you think your own words can stop capitalists from pursuing interests?"
