Alien creatures destroy homes? Start by killing upright apes!

He wasn't exaggerating.

The learning speed of upright apes is exponential.

Learning to line up on the first day and creating writing on the third—this speed is tens of thousands of times faster than the evolution of Homo sapiens on Earth.

"Then we..."

"We chose the Water Dragon Beast." Lu Cheng opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his lips.

"The evolutionary path of the Water Dragon Beast is digging claws. They only know how to dig holes, and the more they evolve, the better they become at digging holes. By the time the upright apes started attacking humans, the Water Dragon Beasts had already dug through the entire underground of the Winner Monkey Kingdom for us."

He stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the lazy water dragons in the square.

They were sunbathing belly up, round and plump, and their uglyness was quite distinctive.

"At that time, the world above ground will belong to the upright apes, and the world below ground will belong to us."

"Tunnel warfare? Who's afraid of who?"

Outside the window, a water dragon rolled over, turning from belly up to belly down, and then slowly began to dig a new hole.

Three enormous claws spun and cut into the soil like shovels, their movements as fluid as a skilled miner.

Dark brown soil was constantly being thrown out, piling up into a small hill at the cave entrance.

Inside the cave, a spacious chamber could be vaguely seen taking shape.

That was the new room that the Water Dragon Beast had dug for itself.

This was also a backup plan that Lu Cheng had prepared for the Winner Monkey Kingdom.

……

The alien creatures arrived on the seventh day.

President Kerry of the mighty dragon nation did the most shameless thing in his life—he had his secretary move the coffin with the words "Kerry's Tomb" written on it from the entrance of the presidential palace into his office and placed it opposite his desk.

"Mr. President, this...this is not a good omen, is it?" The secretary's face turned green.

"Gilliam?" Kerry didn't even look up. "This is the evidence! Once those people who are cursing me realize what's happening, I'll make them line up to carry this coffin away."

Seven reports were laid out in front of him, all from intelligence personnel stationed in various countries.

Kerry rearranged the order chronologically and then started reading from the beginning.

The first one, from the land of John, the foggy city.

Three days ago, the upright apes learned to line up.

Two days ago, I started drawing grids on the ground with twigs, straight and even, like a chessboard.

Yesterday, a farmer in the suburbs of Chongqing discovered that his fifty gibbons had woven a net from branches and vines, trapping all the chickens on his farm.

It's not about eating, it's about catching them in the net.

They were neatly stacked in a row, like goods in a supermarket.

The second one, from Taro Tanuki Country, Kyoto.

The three upright apes in the courtyard were no longer satisfied with just drawing on the stones.

They started making things out of mud.

What are you kneading? Tools.

Although it was crudely made, anyone could tell that it was the shape of a stone axe.

They were practicing making stone axes with mud.

The third one, from the Kingdom of Ivan Bear, in the Far Eastern Wasteland.

The tapping sounds of the upright apes had formed a fixed rhythm.

The intelligence personnel recorded three different rhythms, each corresponding to a different behavior—when the first rhythm started, the upright apes were eating collectively.

As the second rhythm begins, the upright apes take a collective rest.

As the third rhythm begins, the upright apes collectively begin their patrol. They are using sound to establish order.

The fourth one, from the Kingdom of Yakji, Licheng.

The upright apes have started taking things apart.

It's not destruction, it's dismantling.

They disassemble discarded wooden boxes, old furniture, and broken farm tools into parts, and then neatly categorize and stack them.

Wood is wood, nails are nails, and rope is rope.

Like a group of workers on an assembly line.

The fifth one, from Zhu Sailang Kingdom, Luo City.

The upright apes learned to use levers.

They insert branches into the cracks in the rocks and use the lever principle to pry the stones.

Intelligence personnel witnessed three upright apes working together to pry open a boulder weighing over 200 pounds.

Three birds, each less than 1.5 meters tall and weighing less than 200 kilograms in total, moved a stone that was more than twice their combined weight.

The sixth document, from Sam Eagle Country, the Waimeming Plain.

The number of Tyrannosaurus Rex has increased.

It's not reproduction, it's division.

After a Tyrannosaurus Rex had half its body shattered by a heavy machine gun, it lay motionless on the ground, and everyone thought it was dead.

Two hours later, it grew new limbs from the wound.

Four hours later, it split into two smaller but completely independent Tyrannosaurus Rex.

One head becomes two heads, two heads become four heads.

The more they fight, the more there are.

The seventh item, from India, Mengcheng.

This hot country, ranked far below the four major powers, seized one of the last few opportunities to discover the hominid.

Right now, in the mangroves outside Mengcheng, ten million upright apes are smearing their bodies with a kind of red mud.

It's not random scribbling; it has a pattern.

Each hominid has a unique pattern, but hominids in the same area show a clear similarity in their patterns.

The intelligence officer wrote in the report: This may be a division of tribes.

Kerry read through all seven reports, then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

The four major rogue states—John Bull, Jacques Chicken, Giuseppe Wolf, and Taro Tanuki.

These four countries, the strongest in terms of overall strength on Earth, were as arrogant as they were when they were vying for the hominids, and now they are as silent as they were.

Of all the countries that selected the hominid, none have released a formal report, and none have acknowledged that the hominid is problematic.

Because admitting it is tantamount to admitting that one's initial judgment was wrong.

What the four major rogue states find most unacceptable is admitting they were wrong.

But behind the scenes, their intelligence agents are faster than anyone else.

Kerry opened his eyes, picked up his pen, and wrote a line in the blank space of the report: "The evolutionary speed of upright apes: seven days, from wild beasts to primitive tribes."

Kerry put down his pen and said to his secretary:

"Get me Lu Cheng, the governor of Winner State. Also, inform the four major powers and the United States that the Great Power Dragon Kingdom has proposed convening the first meeting on dealing with alien creatures. They'll decide the location, and the time is three days from now. Come if you want, don't come if you don't."

……

Meanwhile, in the Kingdom of Bulante, in the city of Jincheng.

Prime Minister Louis was sitting in his office, staring blankly at a plate of exotic meat.

It was a plate of giant millipede meat, thinly sliced, pan-fried in butter, and sprinkled with black pepper and sea salt.

It looks good and smells nice.

Hans Cat Kingdom was randomly assigned a giant millipede because of the timeout option. Later, they discovered that these giant insects with green liquid all over their bodies reproduced at an astonishing rate and were impossible to kill completely. So they simply changed their approach – could they eat them?

If they were edible, ten million giant millipedes would be a walking protein warehouse.

And so came the plate of fried millipede in front of Louis.

"Mr. Prime Minister, here is the test report from Hanscat Country." The secretary placed a document on the table.

"Giant millipedes have an extremely high protein content, three times that of beef. They also grow very quickly, maturing from larva to adult in just one week..."

Louis picked up his fork, speared a piece of millet meat, and put it in his mouth.

I chewed it three times.

Then his face turned green at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"vomit--"

Louis spat out everything in his mouth, grabbed the glass, gulped down three mouthfuls of water, and then roared in a betrayed tone:

"This is meat? It looks like a tire! It's fishy, ​​tough, and dry, with a weird, indescribable smell! Have those people from Hanscat Country lost their sense of taste?"
