Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 48 Grandmother Rock
Korok smiled and walked to the foot of the nearly [-]-meter-high mountain peak.

At 20 meters tall, he still looks so small when facing the real mountain.

"Grandma, I'm here to see you. Do you still remember me?"

The nearly [-]-meter-high mountain peak moved, and then the whole land began to tremble crazily. At this time, everyone realized that this was not supposed to be a mountain peak——

"My God!"

This life's exclamation was not because of the other party's height, but because of the other party's miserable appearance.

This is not a mountain in the first place, it was cut into a mountain by various orbital bombardments, aircraft and cannons.

When Grandma stood up, everyone realized that half of her body was gone, and the top of her head had been cut into a sharp shape.

This scene was really horrifying, as if a person had been cut diagonally, and his head had been cut into the shape of a mountain peak, but he was still able to move freely.

Although no one knows whether such injuries are considered serious injuries to rock-like creatures.But from their organic perspective, it's really scary.

It's like a person losing half of his body and still being alive.

"Xiao Ke, I still remember you. I may not remember the others very well, but you were the last one born. And now that I have no fertility, you are my last child."

Although the sound from this nearly [-]-meter-high mountain is still very ethereal, it has a more airy feel. It seems that some of the rocks in the vocal cords have been blown through.

The thousand-meter mountain peak gradually stretched out a huge rocky hand and gently touched Korok, who was only a few dozen meters tall.

Korok also hugged the fingers of that hand tightly and refused to let go for a long time.

"My child, is this the guest you brought?"

"Yes, they are very friendly. I have asked them to bring back the soil from the area where irreversible ecological destruction occurred. I believe they will have a solution."

"Is that so..."

Unlike Korok's innocence, Grandma, who has experienced more, obviously does not 100% believe in alien creatures.

But at this moment, she wanted to believe it.

Grandma moved her body, and the trees, small animals, and various plants all over her body began to move.

The animals that have made their home on it have become accustomed to this kind of sudden earthquake, and it seems very normal.

The flowers, plants and trees tilted at different angles and did not fall from the soil in the cracks of the grandmother's rock. The small animals just jumped up and down for a while before settling down.

"Guests from afar. I don't know what you really think, but our race, our planet, has experienced too many disputes. All we want is peace and freedom in this place. Enjoy the beauty of nature.”

Grandma’s voice was ethereal and echoed in the mountains, lingering for a long time.

"We already know this clearly. You have no disputes with the world, but you are forced to take up arms to resist because of constant aggression. The planet has been subjected to non-stop orbital bombing several times, until the entire planet has been turned into purgatory. Then, thanks to the strong ecological recovery ability of the planet Gaia, it returned to its original state in a short period of time. We admire your spirit and want to establish friendly diplomatic relations with you."

Su Lixuan said. "Very good... If you are willing to understand us, you have surpassed most civilizations. Korok is the child I love the most. He is also the one I can't let go of the most."

"Grandma, I..."

Korok seemed to want to stop the other party from continuing.

However, the grandmother said: "Koroke, do you think they are friends?"

"Yes, I think they are friendlier than many civilizations."

"Then as friends, they should know more. This way they can better understand you and feel for you."

Korok stopped talking and just stood there quietly.

Grandmother continued: "I guess you all know that there is an ecological death zone."

"Yes. We learned that that area was once attacked by unknown forces in near-Earth space with rockets. After our preliminary testing, the soil contains extremely acidic. It seems that they used rockets to inject a special acid It was spread on the ground. We are still studying the analysis of the ingredients of this special acid liquid and the solution."

Listening to their statements, Grandma nodded in approval, "Very good, it seems that you are really doing something. Our current research on this only goes so far, and we have been unable to make a breakthrough."

As she spoke, her grandmother touched the small, somewhat painful Korok with her fingers, and said: "This child witnessed the emergence of the ecological death zone with his own eyes. Those rockets hit him. The exploding liquid Soak it completely as well.”

"All the plants and animals there were dead. When we arrived, we only saw him holding up two birds and a small squirrel whose wings were melted by the splashed solution to prevent the torrent of acid from overflowing them. .”

"Korok was still very young at that time, and the solution exploded by the rockets formed a torrent several meters high in a short period of time, quickly submerging the top of his head and his entire body."

"That kind of solution will corrode even our rocky bodies. And Korok was immersed in that kind of solution. Even though he was in so much pain that he couldn't make a sound and almost lost consciousness, he still stubbornly put his The good friend held his arms high and allowed the torrent of acid to erode his body without harming the three little lives in his hands."

"Finally, when people were waiting for the torrent of acid to recede slowly. From a few meters high to half a meter, and then completely soaked in the soil, people discovered the eroded Korok. He also died at the last moment. Never give up on raising your hands."

"But I still couldn't save them in the end..."

Korok said sadly.

Everyone was a little confused. If they remembered correctly, Korok should have three very good friends now, which happened to be two birds and a little squirrel.

At this moment, the three little animals were jumping around on Korok's head.

Grandmother seemed to notice everyone's doubts and said with a smile: "I found these three for him later. When we found him, he had already fallen unconscious. And he was just lying down with his hands raised. Holding it up like this, the solution has already overflowed their bodies."

"However, when he woke up, the first thing he asked about was the situation of those three little animals. At that time, we lied to him. Based on his description, we found three other little animals for him."

"However, this matter was too big. That area became an ecological death zone. Then Korok became a researcher there, responsible for studying methods to solve the ecological death zone. In the process, it was inevitable that he would come into contact with the past thing."

　There will be two regular updates tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. Review for the provincial exam.
