Chapter 302: Guess
"Revive?" Hearing Karos' words, Liu Na felt quite surprised.
This was something that humanity did not know.
Then again, this made sense—no matter what humanity had tried, they had never been able to kill a mutated creature.
Since they had never killed a mutated creature, they naturally would not have discovered this.
However, hearing those words from Karos, Liu Na's expression became more and more grave.
Before, she had already known that the mutated creatures were incredibly terrifying.
Not only did they have monstrous evolutionary abilities, they seemed like they could adapt to any environment.
Now, Liu Na found out that humanity did not know all there was to know about the mutated creatures.
"The mutated creatures do not ide." Karos shook his head as he said, "No matter what method is used, under the power of the Nothingness energy, a new mutated creature will appear, without much difference to the original one.
"This is not the birth of a new mutated creature, but the precious mutated creature reviving. After each revival, the mutated creatures will also become stronger and more difficult to resist."
Karos deeply sighed and said, "That was why our Karos planet was destroyed."
As he thought to the past, his expression became somewhat gloomy.
Seeing this, Liu Na also sighed.
As someone who had also suffered because of the mutated creatures, Liu Na could sympathise.
Before the catastrophe had begun, human civilization had been incredibly prosperous.
However, in just a few short years, everything had changed.
Everything had happened incredibly suddenly, and it was very difficult to accept.
In fact, many people could not bear the pressure and had ended their own lives.
Thinking to there, Liu Na could not help but deeply sigh.
"Just what are those mutated creatures?" Liu Na asked, "And what is that Nothingness energy?"
"I don't' know," Karos shook his head, "Just like how you humans do not know anything about the mutated creatures, this is the same for us.
"Our technology was indeed more advanced by yours, but it was still limited. We were able to research Nothingness energy and use it to create Nothingness Beasts.
"However, even that was not enough for us to fight with the mutated creatures."
He sighed deeply as he said, "In front of the mutated creatures, we were all helpless and could not do anything... we indeed researched some things, but do not necessarily know more than you humans."
Karos shook his head before saying, "However, I have my own guesses. The origin of those mutated creatures most likely is not a natural disaster, but have most likely been commanded by some kind of existence."
"An existence commanding them?" Hearing this, Liu Na felt quite surprised, not knowing what to say.
"Indeed." Karos nodded, "I'm sure no one would believe that these mutated creatures are a naturally-occurring phenomenon.
"Even the massive beasts that can travel through space are not that powerful, let alone have such unimaginable evolutionary abilities..."
Hearing this, Liu Na thought to those mutated creatures' appearances, as well as their ridiculous abilities.
That did not seem like anything an ordinary creature would have.
"There is most likely some kind of unique existence behind the Nothingness energy..." Looking at Liu Na, Karos spoke out his guess, "It could be a powerful civilization, or a terrifying individual...
"However, regardless, there is definitely a mastermind behind this..."
"But what is their goal?" Liu Na frowned as she asked, "Why would they spend such a great deal of effort to send the mutated creatures here?"
"What do you think?" Karos coldly laughed, "Isn't it enough to make these mutated creatures stronger?
"Think about it—what were those mutated creatures like when they first arrived at your planet, and what are they like now?"
Hearing this, Liu Na suddenly came to a realisation.
Karos was right.
Back then, when the mutated creatures had first come, they were far weaker than they were now.
Back then, even though they had been quite strong, they could not compare to how they were now, nor did they seem invincible.
The reason why the mutated creatures had become so strong was because humanity had continuously fought against them.
Undoubtedly speaking, if it wasn't for humanity fighting against them, those mutated creatures would not have become stronger so quickly.
"Us Kar people made a hypothesis..." Karos said as he sighed.
"Back then, we had done a great amount of research and had collected much data.
"The reason why the mutated creatures came to our Kar planet and rampaged there was to seek continued resistance to cause them to evolve.
"After our Kar planet was destroyed, the mutated creatures all disappeared, as if they had never existed.
"As such, we made came up with a hypothesis that chilled us to the bones.
Karos sighed and said seriously, "Our civilization may have been monitored by that unknown civilization since a long time ago.
"Every time our civilization reached a certain point, the mutated creatures would appear, destroying our civilization while using it as a whetting stone to make their mutated creatures stronger.
"这..."
"After a civilization is destroyed, their evolved mutated creatures will be sent to the next place to continue this process."
"This..." Hearing Karos' words, Liu Na stumbled back a few steps, a look of shock on her face, "How... How is this possible..."
She was instinctively looking for holes or problems with what Karos had said, but she was unable to.
It seemed that this was the only way to explain things.
"There seem to be some things that are strange..." Liu Na said, "IF this is really the case, then those who are in control of these mutated creatures must be incredibly powerful.
"Would it really be so difficult for those existences to stimulate the mutated creatures to evolve? Surely there isn't a need to do these things."
最大的特征...
Indeed, if there really was a civilization controlling them, then that civilization would be incredibly powerful.
Why would such a powerful civilization need to use other planets to strengthen the mutated creatures?
Hearing Liu Na's question, Karos deeply sighed before saying, "Do you know what the biggest feature of the mutated creatures is?"
Liu Na thought for a moment before her eyes widened.
The biggest feature of the mutated creatures was their unlimited ability to evolve.
As long as they were not killed, they would become stronger and even more terrifying.
It was because of this feature that these things were able to push humanity to such an extent, to the point that they could not breathe.
"You mean to say..." Liu Na said uncertainly as she looked at Karos.
"That's right." Karos nodded, confirming Liu Na's guess, "The reason why those mutated creatures have been sent here is to use our civilization to help them become stronger.
"no matter what it is, everything has a limit on how quickly they can grow; it is impossible for something to be as weak as an ant one day, and then become like a dragon on the next.
"This is the same for the mutated creatures. That is why the masterminds sent the mutated creatures to our civilizations.
"想想看吧..."
"Because we are sufficiently weak, we can give those mutated creatures enough stimulation to become stronger, but we are not able to easily destroy those mutated creatures.
"Only after those mutated creatures walk out from our civilizations will they be sent to higher-grade civilizations to evolve even further..."
Standing there, Karos sighed as he said seriously, "After using a civilization to become stronger, just how strong will the mutated creatures be after a few rounds of this?
"In the end, perhaps even a single mutated creature will be able to deal with a high-level civilization.
"In this path, our civilizations are just the first stepping stones."
Karos shook his head as he spoke.
Hearing his words, Liu Na fell silent for a moment before asking, "After your civilization was destroyed by the mutated creatures, why did you flee from your planet?"
Based on what Karos had said, after the Kar civilization had been destroyed by the mutated creatures, the mutated creatures had disappeared.
Since that was the case, the Kar planet should have been safe.
Since that was the case, why did Karos and his companions choose to leave their planet and instead come to this planet?
Karos did not try to hide anything, and fell silent for a moment before replying.
"After the Kar civilization was destroyed, we indeed wanted to rebuild our civilization, but something unexpected happened."
"What was it?" Liu Na asked.
"The planet..." Karos sighed, and seemed to be filled with despair as he said, "Not too long after the mutated creatures disappeared, large numbers of meteorites fell towards our planet..."
