Chapter 354: Another Earth

In the filthy sky, unknown rain like black oil was falling, and the whole world presented a scene of decay.

This was Earth, a planet full of pollution. The pollution that started in the 20th century continued until the 30th century. In the polluted environment, technology regressed instead of advancing.

At the RDA company headquarters in New York, USA, a phone call went directly into the CEO's office.

"Is this Mr. Sodo? This is NASA. Just now, we received a signal sent back by a spaceship. This signal points to your RDA company. May I ask, is this your company's spaceship?"

The voice on the phone seemed somewhat excited.

Actually, you couldn't blame them. Earth was too polluted; this world simply couldn't be lived in. And the return of the spaceship represented that they had found a planet—at the very least, a mineral planet. And once there was such a planet, they could acquire resources or occupy the planet. No matter what, it was beneficial to the Federal Earth.

Yes, it was Federal Earth. Since the acid rain constantly invaded Earth, the whole Earth became bare. It couldn't be lived in here, but besides Earth, the environment of other planets was even worse. So decades later, the population of the whole Earth decreased instead of increasing, from 6 billion to 100 million now.

This was a terrifying number. It could be said that thousands or even tens of thousands of people died in the harsh environment every day. There was no food, no fresh air. Walking on the street, one could be eroded by the wind at any time, leaving one's face full of sores.

This world was about to collapse. The survivors all had considerable resistance to poison. The resistance to poison of the Chinese people on Ye Nan's previous Earth was simply not a problem here. Here, things like melamine were just small toys.

So when a returning spaceship came back, he was so excited.

"Whether it is my company's spaceship, I have to check," Mr. Sodo sat in his chair and pushed it off.

At thirty years old this year, he could be said to be young and promising. But the harsh environment made this thirty-year-old young man look old. In fact, the average life expectancy of people in this world was only forty years old. All of this was naturally caused by the harsh weather.

The RDA company he was responsible for was one of the largest companies in the world. Usually, it was mainly responsible for the collection of mining. But just this one item made them a fortune. However, a few months ago, a spaceship named "Heart of Eternity" lost contact. And now, it came back. What did this mean? It meant a hope—a new hope.

Any new life planet would cause the people of this world to go crazy. If this news were known by the government, even if the RDA company was one of the largest companies on this planet, it wouldn't be able to seize the new planet.

"Must keep this news secret. I should be the first to contact it." Sodo thought for a while and said: "There is indeed such a spaceship, but it was sent by us to mine. I didn't expect it to come back at this time. Sorry, sorry to bother you."

"So that's how it is." The voice from NASA was obviously somewhat disappointed.

Since it was a mining spaceship, it naturally wouldn't be that a life planet had been discovered. Maybe even a mineral planet hadn't been discovered. Although he felt strange about why this spaceship had no records, he didn't intend to pursue it.

"I'll go over right now," Sodo said and hung up the phone.

"Strange, just a mining spaceship, is it worth taking action personally?"

On the "Heart of Eternity" spaceship, Ye Nan sat inside. In his arms was his daughter, Ripley. Behind him were several Xenomorphs, crawling on the ground, motionless.

Since the Na'vi defeated the invasion of the Time-Space Empire, the Na'vi united. They formed a behemoth clan together and vigorously developed technology. And under Ye Nan's instruction, many outsiders joined the clan, making their own contributions to the development of the clan....

After doing all this, Ye Nan created a fake appearance of his own death and quietly left the clan, returning to the Time-Space Empire to find that base.

This base was a base left behind by a civilization that clearly did not belong to Pan Duola. It should belong to some unknown civilization. It was just that I don't know what happened, it was abandoned on Pan Duola, and Ye Nan also saw many interesting things in it.

"If I didn't guess wrong, this Earth should be the home of humans in the movie Avatar—Earth. And the current time should be the time before the Avatar plot begins."

"The 'Heart of Eternity' spaceship discovered Pan Duola, and then because it lost energy, it had to rest on Pan Duola. Later, I don't know what happened, everyone died, and the base sent signals to the outside according to the predetermined plan. If it weren't for me, it should be that not long after, a spaceship from the RDA company would receive the signal, then report it to the company, and then a series of Avatar plots would happen."

"But now there will be no Avatar series plot, because this Earth will soon fall into my hands."

The "Heart of Eternity" spaceship passed through an unknown satellite, and the originally powerful power system stopped completely. It slowly entered Earth's orbit.

Below it was not a blue planet, but a dark planet, like a black hell, thick, so thick that even the sun's radiance could not shine in.

"'Heart of Eternity' spaceship, please sail according to the predetermined orbit and enter Earth in three minutes."

The cold signal pierced through layers of blackness and was transmitted to the interior of the "Heart of Eternity" spaceship. Then, the Heart of Eternity entered the predetermined orbit according to the signal.

"This planet is uglier than I imagined. No wonder those soldiers would attack Pan Duola at all costs. They were not for any unobtanium ore at all, but for Pan Duola."

Actually, think about it, living on such a polluted planet, no one would like it. Judging from the weapon system, the technology of this planet was even a step worse than the Earth where Ye Nan was. However, in terms of civil technology, this world was still better than Earth.

"But it's all the same. This planet will soon be like Pan Duola, belonging to me."

Ye Nan smiled lightly, watching the "Heart of Eternity" spaceship spit out white smoke and enter Earth's atmosphere.

At this moment, in Earth's filthy sky, dark clouds roared and lightning flashed. Undoubtedly, another acid rain that was common was about to sweep over. But even so, the sky on Earth still had no signs of changing color. It was still the color of darkness, and occasionally one could see a touch of red.

Further down was the ink-green ocean, where garbage could be seen everywhere—various bottles, animal corpses, and some unknown machinery. What could be smelled everywhere was the stench.

"How can this be, to pollute the world like this?" Ye Nan sighed.

He had never seen a planet so severely polluted. Even the ocean, which was known as the region with the strongest purification ability, was covered by garbage. This was simply incredible.

"In the data, people on this planet collected all the trees that could be dug up a hundred years ago. This planet is actually a planet without trees, and carbon dioxide severely exceeds the standard," Smila said.

"This planet is more disgusting than the nest." Ripley looked at the image on the screen and said with dissatisfaction.

Hiss! Hiss!

Several Xenomorphs hissed together, as if supporting their Queen....

Actually, for Xenomorphs, this harsh environment was not a problem. They had encountered environments even harsher than this. But the Queen had spoken, so they naturally responded.

"Xenomorphs, loyal Xenomorphs." Ye Nan looked at the hissing Xenomorphs and nodded with satisfaction.

These Xenomorphs were all hatched from Facehuggers. To hatch them, Ye Nan fed a lot of food. However, the others were divided by Dr. Ashford and Dr. Matthew. According to them, creatures that could survive in the universe were one of the best materials for making biochemical weapons.

When approaching the shore, a huge cover suddenly appeared on the screen. Through the cover, one could see many vegetables growing tenaciously inside. Judging from the people wearing neat equipment inside, the vegetables inside this cover were quite precious.

"Cabbage, green vegetables, peanuts, chili peppers. If you had known today would come, why act as you did in the beginning?" Ye Nan sighed leisurely. Things that were ordinary in the past now needed a cover to protect them and needed so many people to guard them. This was impossible in the past, but now, it had indeed happened. From this, it could be seen how much the environment of this planet had deteriorated.

"The humans on this Earth are a group of locusts, constantly destroying one planet after another. They are more ferocious than Xenomorphs," Smila looked at the development history of this Earth and said angrily: "They hunt all animals, cut down all trees, dig all minerals, in short, as long as there is something of value, it is all utilized by humans, finally leaving behind a broken planet."

In the development history of Earth, humans could be said to be locusts, absorbing everything useful to them, exterminating races, slaughtering life, cutting down all trees, digging empty planets. They were simply more terrifying than Xenomorphs. Xenomorphs only destroyed life and would not destroy planets.

"So they are facing Earth's revenge. Not long after, humans will perish with this planet, even if their aerospace technology is strong enough," Ye Nan said faintly. If it weren't for him, perhaps these people could find the next home, but now it was different. Pan Duola will soon fall into his hands, and this planet will also fall into his hands. ===== CHAPTER 355 =====
