Chapter 108: Start Surveying the Darwin Incident! Charlie Lures Qu Into the Room!
Earth, manor.
Luo Ji watched the settlement screen on the sky curtain, gently swaying the wine glass in hand, the smile at the corner of the mouth playful and cold.
"Pervert‑level? This evaluation is really precise to the point of being somewhat harsh."
He took a sip of wine, his eyes deep: "For those who treat other civilizations like play‑dough, extermination is the only mercy. The sky curtain's move this round, I'm satisfied."
Da Shi was there, biting into an apple while speaking unclearly: "It's just that the Abo person has a bit of a bad taste, turning aliens into brushes… tsk, from now on I'll have a psychological scar whenever I see a toilet brush."
Three‑Body fleet, flagship.
Here they did not feel discouraged by their low ranking; on the contrary, the entire command center was filled with a festive atmosphere like New Year's.
"We did it! Your Majesty! We did it too!"
A Three‑Body executive in charge of the weapons system trembled with excitement, its brain waves flashing wildly,
"Under the lingering energy of His Excellency Yinhe·Lujie'er, our droplet successfully pierced an escaping Qu scout ship!"
"Although it's just a scout ship, it's a genuine Qu!"
"Even if it's just one, we also participated in the execution of justice across the myriad heavens!"
The surrounding Three‑Body scientists nodded, their faces filled with the joy and pride of surviving a catastrophe.
This is an inter‑dimensional war!
Those Three‑Body people actually managed to leech an assist!
However, a calm sociologist nearby timely threw a bucket of cold water.
It pointed to the data high on the sky curtain's leaderboard, voice full of awe: "Don't be too proud. Look at first place—our Primordial God civilization… one hundred and eight. That's not just a scout ship; it's one hundred and eight complete Qu across every spacetime timeline."
"We exhausted our entire race's strength, relying on the big shot's residual wave to take down a wounded little soldier."
"And the Land of Light…" the sociologist trembled, kneeling on the ground, "That's basically a divine trace. Is this the might of a Primordial‑God‑level civilization? Praise the Land of Light, praise Ultraman!"
For a moment, within the entire Three‑Body fleet, thought waves of "Praise the Primordial God" rose and fell.
What is a gap?
This is the gap.
When you're proud of killing a chicken, they've already flattened the whole poultry farm.
As the Qu‑targeted "Myriad Heavens Barbecue" concluded, the image on the sky curtain twisted and reassembled again.
The scarlet lettering seemed to carry some kind of magic, slowly unveiling a new chapter.
【Survey of the Top Ten Civilizations of the Myriad Heavens】
【Top7】
【Darwin Incident】
Darwin Incident universe.
Inside a seemingly tranquil human high‑school classroom.
Half‑human, half‑ape Charlie, poised elegantly, was flipping through a book on human evolutionary history.
When he saw the huge "Top7" characters on the sky curtain, and then the familiar scene of this world appearing afterward, his furry face showed the expected expression.
"As expected."
Charlie closed the book, a knowing yet slightly arrogant smile curling at the corner of his mouth,
"Our civilization, having been able to produce a perfect being like me that transcends species boundaries, it's only natural that we'd make the list."
Afterward, his gaze swept over the previous rankings, a flicker of contempt flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"That so‑called Land of Light, I think it was ranked tenth before, right?"
Charlie pushed up the glasses on his nose, analyzing logically and self‑consistently,
"Since it's a reverse ranking, we're now seventh, which means…… in this sky curtain's evaluation system, we are considered more 'advanced' than that group that only knows violence, the Light Giants."
"After all, violence is merely a symbol of barbarism, while tolerance and communication are the true essence of civilization."
Thinking of this, Charlie turned around and looked toward the back of the classroom.
There, where a clutter‑corner should have been, now loomed a huge flesh‑ball exuding a nauseating stench.
That was a Qu.
Across the entire multiverse, the sole surviving Qu hive.
It had been beaten in other universes down to its last breath, fleeing here in panic, yet Charlie forcibly preserved it in the name of 'protecting endangered species' and 'equality of all beings.'
"Friend."
Charlie strode over with elegant steps to the slightly writhing flesh‑ball, as if displaying his proudest collection to the world, his tone gentle and self‑satisfied.
"Do you see? Our civilization has also made the list."
"This proves my idea is correct. Only by accepting you, only by overcoming species prejudice, can we stand on a place higher than those gods."
Beside Charlie, the battered Qu hive did not respond at once.
Its compound eyes stared fixedly at the ranking on the sky curtain, then glanced at this mouth‑full‑of‑benevolence‑and‑morality ape‑human hybrid before it; deep in its cognitive core, a gleam of extreme greed and malice flashed.
【Foolish……】
【Arrogant……】
【What a perfect……breeding ground.】
"Impressive."
The Qu's main brain controlled its vocal organs, squeezing out two stiff syllables.
Its tentacles, which should originally be terrifying, now hang limp on the ground, like a tamed pet.
But if observed closely, the tips of those tentacles are silently secreting a transparent spore.
And on the other side of the classroom.
Those human students, teachers, and even the military commander who had rushed in from outside the window, now watching this scene, were already drenched in cold sweat.
They had just seen on the sky curtain how the species called Qu turned humans into carpets, into filters, into grass-eating antelopes.
That fear, rooted deep in their genes, made them retch uncontrollably even at a single glance at that flesh ball.
But now...
Chali, the half-beast they regarded as an 'evolutionary miracle,' was actually calling that demon brother?
Cha... Chali...
A female student trembled as she spoke, tears swirling in her eyes: "It... it's a monster! The sky curtain said it's a perverse-level civilization! It will eat us!"
Chali frowned slightly, turned his head, and looked at the girl with an exasperated gaze.
"Superficial."
Chali shook his head, his tone full of condescending lecturing: "Is the sky curtain's judgment necessarily correct? That's merely the arrogance of the strong."
"In my view, it's merely a lost child, a soul in need of understanding."
"Your fear stems from ignorance."
Saying this, Chali reached out and gently stroked Qu's slick skin, his face glowing with a holy father's light.
"Rest assured, as long as I'm here, it will be safe. And it will also become our humans'... oh no, our 'new humans' most loyal friend."
"Right?"
Chali looked toward Qu.
Qu's countless compound eyes swiveled in unison, focusing on Chali, splitting open a ferocious fissure, as if it were smiling.
"Friend... eat... no... is... friend."
Only the sky curtain knows.
Under the honor called Top7, a nightmare more terrifying than the antelope people is quietly taking root and sprouting in this classroom filled with 'love and tolerance'.
