Monsters: Evolving from Titans to Ancient Gods

Chapter 92 A New Era

Despite the passage of time, scenes continue to unfold under this young sun.

A piece of land that was once covered by ice and snow has completely recovered its vitality. Forests have returned to that land, and creatures that crossed the strait have gradually multiplied throughout the continent, and traces of humans have appeared.

In this still-unenlightened era, almost no one believed that hundreds of years ago, many parts of the world were once shrouded in the same storm.

Only in some human settlements are stories of terrible storms passed down by word of mouth, which seems to have added a rich touch to the ancient murals.

Unfortunately, people today believe it was just an ordinary rainstorm, a story exaggerated and constructed by our ancestors.

Modern humans simply cannot comprehend what happened during that period.

Perhaps only in the distant future, when future generations of humans who have mastered advanced technology will unearth these remnants of history.

Only by restoring them and connecting them with legends and traces passed down from other human civilizations can we piece together the fragments of that period.

But these things are too far removed from humankind today.

For people in this era, survival has become increasingly difficult, and they now face not only the problems of food and crops.

The constant stream of natural disasters, the enormous shadows behind them, and the hordes of greedy beasts filled them with immense fear.

It is unknown when it began, but many extraordinary creatures appeared in this world. These creatures were larger than trees and had shapes unlike any other creatures known to humankind.

Moreover, these unimaginable creatures seem to possess supernatural powers, such as fire, gales, and even the power of lightning and vibration.

Among them are giant serpents that roam the desert, spewing chaotic black mist; long, slender crocodiles that swim in rivers and lakes; bizarre creatures that seem to come from outer space; and giant beasts hidden deep within volcanoes, covered in fiery scales.

Compared to them, humans are almost indistinguishable from ants; they are numerous but extremely vulnerable.

These creatures seem to have replaced humans as the protagonists of this world, roaming the vast world and slumbering in places of death such as miasma and poisonous fog.

Whenever they awaken from the dead, a place inaccessible to humans, their bodies become even stronger, and their supernatural powers become even more terrifying.

These beings can tear apart mountains and flatten forests with a single charge; their supernatural power is no different from the disasters that humans have encountered.

Gradually, ignorant humans associated them with nature and disasters, viewing these creatures as supreme gods who ruled the entire world.

Humans on various continents have witnessed different "gods" fighting each other in many areas, causing extremely serious damage to human activity zones.

Although the gods, who are high above, are not interested in humans and rarely persecute them, the powerful creatures that follow the gods often treat humans as food.

Humans are among the largest and most numerous beings in the world, making them an ideal food source for mythical beasts that follow the gods.

This behavior not only greatly reduced the living space of humankind, but also passively led to the further expansion of human culture and mythology.

Under these circumstances, humans had no choice but to spontaneously form larger tribes, relying on their population advantage and the power of their wisdom to strengthen themselves and resist danger.

Under unprecedented survival pressure, humanity seems to have returned to the state of rapid evolution and arms race millions of years ago, with civilization progressing at an astounding pace.

Despite this, humans still frequently perished in the aftermath of the gods' battles, and their fear of them reached its peak.

But what humanity could not have imagined was that in such a terrifying world, plants became more and more vigorous, and the vitality of life became more and more abundant.

Many prey that had disappeared from human murals began to reappear one after another, the number of various creatures increased rapidly, and even the crops cultivated by humans grew faster.

This series of changes was difficult for the wise men of several major tribes in human civilization to understand.

But as they gathered and held events time and time again, they gradually made an incredible discovery.

Not only are various animals reappearing in the world, but the human population is also constantly increasing amidst unknown changes.

Despite the constant deaths of humans in this era due to battles between gods, attacks by strange beasts, and natural disasters, the overall population is growing in a mysterious way.

The changes of the times are not limited to the surface of the earth; the changes in the deep sea and the inner world of the earth are equally dramatic.

The environment there is far more favorable, and the number of newly formed Titans is far greater than on the surface.

Almost all Titans were born in the inner world, and the same is true for many Titans that live on the surface. The vast majority of Titans appear on the surface to avoid the terrifying competition.

The Titans, who live in the inner world, benefit from a favorable environment, and their size and strength grow at a much faster rate than those on the surface.

They are young and powerful, eager to establish their niche among the many Titans, and fierce conflicts occur almost every day.

For Titans, the moment they are born, they have already joined this endless competition.

Many arrogant Titans even actively seek out and provoke other ancient Titans and slumbering Earth monsters, but the fate of these Titans is self-evident.

Many gentle Titan guardians and monsters rarely harm these nascent Titans.

In their minds, Titans are not worthy of being considered competitors until they possess power comparable to themselves; in certain special circumstances, they might even offer a small amount of help.

But once a Titan reaches its full potential, it can join the dog-eat-dog world, beating and killing whatever it needs to.

The Destroyers, however, are somewhat different. They have always maintained a consistent attitude towards Titans that are not of their own kind: if they can defeat them, they kill them; if they cannot, they run away.

The entire Earth became incredibly lively, with traces of the new generation of Titans appearing in every corner of the world. Monsters that had been sleeping in various corners of the Earth were frequently awakened from their dreams by the various disturbances caused by the Titans.

From this point on, Earth's landscape rapidly changed, hurtling headlong down a wild path.

As Earth marches down a wild path, Pandora is also developing along a peculiar one.

On the floating island beneath the false sky, Longbo sensed some kind of information, and the eyes of the mask trembled slightly.

You have a new task; please confirm it as soon as possible.

"—"

"Mechanical Godzilla?"

In the stone seat above the floating island, Longbo slowly opened his eyes, and a blue light slowly rose.
