Chapter 303: The Age of the Gods, Missing Family

Europa and Auguland were connected by a wormhole. It was through this wormhole that Ling Jiu came to Auguland.

So as long as he came to the wormhole, he could find his way back to Europa.

However, the fact was, Ling Jiu found that the wormhole was broken when he was only halfway into it.

He ended up emerging in the dark outer space. He looked around, and apart from a dim star in the far distance, there was nothing else in his field of vision.

“What’s going on, Leoux?”

“It is very obvious. The wormhole connecting Europa and Auguland has been destroyed. The wormhole on Auguland’s side is fine. So it was apparently destroyed on Europa’s side.” Leoux smiled. “If I’m not mistaken, it the Merpeople’s elders did this. They wanted to exile you.”

“Exile me?”

Ling Jiu put two and two together. No wonder the elders of the Merpeople dared to rebel against the Merqueen and installed a new one, and no wonder the new Merqueen went into the wormhole when she saw him. It turned out that all this was a conspiracy of the elders of the Merpeople.

Their purpose was to lure him to Auguland and then destroy the wormhole, exiling him on Auguland forever.

“Hmph! These guys are really insidious,” Ling Jiu sneered. “Had this happened to others, those people would not have been able to return to Europa anymore, and their plot would have succeeded.”

“That’s for sure,” Leoux said. “I’ve just run some calculations. Europa and Auguland are nineteen thousand light-years apart. If this were to happen to other people, they would never be able to go back to Europa for the rest of their life, given the distance.”

Nineteen thousand light-years were anything but near.

At Ling Jiu’s current speed and sprinting with all his strength without creating a wormhole, he could easily break the speed of the third universe, which was 16.7km/s.

This speed was incredible, but it was still insignificant for the distance of 19,000 light-years.

He would not be able to return to the solar system even after flying for 100,000 years.

However, it was a shame that Ling Jiu could not only create wormholes but also own the Leoux. It was not a challenge for him at all to return to the solar system.

“I’ll beat those old f*gs’ a**es when I return.” Ling Jiu snorted. “Return at full speed, Leoux.”

“You got it.”

The Leoux opened a dimensional tunnel and vanished into it in an instant.

Opening a wormhole in space was as simple as teleporting for a spacecraft of the Leoux’s level.

Four hours later, Leoux’s voice came. “We are near Jupiter’s orbit, and will be on Europa in a few minutes, Ling Jiu.”

“Go back to Earth first. We’ll come back for them later.” As much as Ling Jiu wanted to return to Europa and kill those old fags, he was worried about his family. So he held back his anger.

“You got it.”

Saying nothing further, Leoux flew toward Earth at full speed and entered Earth’s vicinity in no time.

Ling Jiu tucked away the Leoux, then teleported back to the Earth’s surface, appearing in the sky over Lantian Base City.

He frowned in an instant upon seeing Lantian Base city—it was gone.

The tall city wall had been completely destroyed, its surface broken as if some giant Direbeasts had torn it apart and left behind many breaches.

The base city was in ruin. The streets were full of vehicles, countless bodies, and stones piling up on the streets, which suggested a brutal battle had happened.

The entire base city had become a dead city, quiet, with no signs of life.

A chilly wind was blowing trash up in the air, and there were bodies of Direbeasts all over the place.

“Lantian Base City is gone.” Ling Jiu was shocked.

When he transmigrated to Lantian Base City, he carried with him the memories of his past. To him, Lantian Base City was his home, which had a very distinct meaning in his life. He would not hesitate to sacrifice his life for it.

Yet, now, Lantian Base City was gone.

“What really happened?” Ling Jiu suppressed his anger. “Find out what happened, Leoux.”

“You got it,” Leoux unequivocally responded and started investigating. Meanwhile, Ling Jiu scanned Lantian Base City with his mental power to try to find some clues.

Unfortunately, he found nothing.

“I found something, Ling Jiu,” Leoux said after five minutes.

“What happened to this place?” Ling Jiu quickly asked. “What about my family? How are they?”

“It is a long story. I will talk slowly while you listen calmly. Remember, don’t get angry because anger will not help,” Leoux said.

Ling Jiu’s heart sank when he heard that. “Just tell me.”

“Things started five years ago,” Leoux said. “On December 25, 2057, a god was born on Mount Olympus in Greece. He claimed to be the god of war, Ares.”

“The Greek deities have emerged?” Ling Jiu squinted.

Before this, there had already been five major pantheons on Earth, namely the Aztec, Mayan, Andean, Japanese, and Norse deities that emerged recently.

Other pantheons had not come into being at that time. Little did Ling Jiu expect that he would see the Greek pantheon born after he was away for nine years.

“Indeed, the Greek pantheon has been born.” Leoux nodded. “But Greek deities are a bit too powerful. Just Ares, the god of war, alone defeated all stellar beings on Earth. Even Emperor Might, who practiced for three hundred years on Whitehole 2, was no match for the formidable Ares. He single-handedly beat all the stellar beings and suppressed the major countries. After that, he announced the birth of the Greek pantheon. Southern European countries were the first to bear the brunt of the attack. The Greek deities led by Zeus, the king of the gods, carried out a bloody massacre of the southern European countries surrounding Greece. Over twenty southern European countries were wiped out, countless Arcanists died, and as many as eighteen stellar beings were killed in battles. It is worth mentioning that with Whitehole 2, the stellar beings on Earth have gained explosive improvement in strength. As of five years ago, there were as many as one hundred and twenty stellar beings on Earth. But eighteen of them have died since the birth of the Greek gods.”

“And?” Ling Jiu asked in a low voice.

“Southern Europe returned to the era of anarchy overnight. At this time, the Greek gods have started to preach the return of the gods to the world. Plus, some corporations, capitalists, and aspirants have surrendered. Europe is under the rule of the Greek gods now,” Leoux said. “This is Southern Europe. Meanwhile, Northern Europe is not much better. Less than a month after the birth of the Greek gods, the Norse gods were born too. The Norse gods are no less powerful than the Greek gods. Led by Odin, the king of the gods, the Norse gods are ruthless. They launched a genocide in the Nordic countries and placed over twenty Nordic countries under their rule. Following the Greek and Norse gods, the Egyptian, Persian, Hindu, the suppressed Mayan, and Japanese gods have all appeared. Earth has plunged into chaos in the blink of an eye upon the arrival of the gods’ era.”

“What about my family?” Ling Jiu asked.

“They are missing.”
