"After you reconnected with the other worlds, these old rulers fled in all directions?" Shen Xi asked curiously, "Why didn't that serious shadow pollution affect you?"

"I also don't understand why I survived. He sighed, "It's just because I'm luckier than the other companions." As for the rest of the children...... she stared at Shen Xi for a moment before she said quietly, "they have been wandering around this world. Until the arrival of Abitos. ”

There's actually a matter of my own mentor here. Shen Xi suddenly came to his senses, "And then?"

He then killed six of the old rulers. He's mood stabilized a little, "In order to ensure the safety of the civilization he catalyzed." ”

"The civilization he catalyzed?" Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed, "You mean those Wendu people?"

He shrugged his shoulders, "Are there other catalytic civilizations that I don't know about?"

"The old rulers of the time were divided into two factions. A faction wanders the world through the Void, harvesting souls for a living. The other faction has its own agenda—they intend to nurture civilization on their own. And then use these civilizations as food. He continued to tell the story.

Together, six of the Old Rulers took control of a civilization called Taran. They gave the civilization much-needed knowledge, and forcibly set the course for the civilization to explore every inch of the universe and slaughter and enslave all civilizations that came their fingers. The soul-feeding rulers of the old days had a huge appetite, and they set an ironclad rule for the civilization to slaughter at least 200 million intelligent beings every year. If this number is not reached, then a random group of people will be selected from the civilization to make up the number.

Either slaughter a civilization you've never met before, or sacrifice yourself to satisfy the appetites of the rulers of the past. "Survival" is the core goal of any species that is deeply rooted in its soul, and there is always only one option before that poor civilization. They were forced to completely lose the form of a normal civilization. All newborns must be screened, and the weak are put to death immediately after birth, and their bodies are crushed by machines to become essential nutrients for the survival of others. And the soul is dedicated to the hungry rulers of the old days. There is no production sector in the entire civilization except for munitions, and all members are the most brutal warriors.

And this civilization finally met the Wendu people who were rapidly expanding in the vast universe.

"The life level of the Wendu people was deliberately raised by Abitos, so I can't observe their specific situation, and before the Taran and the Wendu people met, I didn't even know that there was such a civilization in my world. He sighed, and she seemed to remember the mistakes she had made. And the exalted souls of these classes are more likely to arouse the hunger and thirst of the old rulers. And the Wendu, although catalyzed by Abitos, are still no match for the Talans. Almost in the blink of an eye, the Wendu people were beaten back to the vicinity of their home planet. And it was completely besieged by the Taran fleet. If it weren't for the fact that the souls of the Wendu people had a special appetite for the old rulers, I am afraid that the Wendu people would be completely extinct at that time. ”

Shen Xi heard Yusuf tell this story, and when he heard this, he finally connected the two stories. "So what the Tarans call the 'true gods' are actually the old rulers who hide behind them?"

"Yes. He nodded, "It's just that the things that follow make me feel a little unbelievable." In order to protect his followers and the civilization he had spawned, Abitos sought out the old rulers of the Tarans and erased them from the world once and for all. The Tarans, who had lost their guides, were completely defeated by the Wendu people, who had mastered new technologies, before the social system collapsed. But I don't understand why the Wendu people who survived would turn their backs on the gods. ”

Shen Xi smiled bitterly twice, the story of Yousufu's side happened to be connected with He's description, and he naturally understood the cause and effect of the matter. All of this was just a misunderstanding.

The Windus, as believers, were unaware of the limitations that Abitos faced.

God cannot interfere with the normal functioning of human society.

When a rapidly expanding civilization meets another civilization, it is part of the normal functioning of society, whether it is a war or a friendly and peaceful coexistence between the two sides. Abitos, as a god, certainly could not intervene directly. If it weren't for the fact that the old rulers were behind the other party, if it weren't for the fact that the souls of the Wendu people who had been lifted up were particularly tempting, and even made the old rulers who had always been greedy want to raise them...... Without these ifs, the Wendu people would not have survived.

After discovering the anomaly of the Taran's social system, Abitos quickly understood that there must be operators behind this civilization, and he did not hesitate to take action to eliminate the old rulers. But the Wendu people, who have been bullied for a long time, have no idea what kind of difficulties Abitos has faced. They are just wishful thinking that this is evidence that the gods have turned their backs on them. And after they developed the υ-drive system, they happened to encounter the perfect opportunity for the collapse of the Taranian social system. In just a few years, the Wendu people have exterminated the Tarans who once stepped on their heads from this universe.

Abitos took pity on the Tarans and sympathized with their plight. Therefore, he called on his followers to stop their attacks on the Tarans, who did not choose to follow this path on their own. They, like the Wendu, were victims of the greed of the old rulers.

Feeling betrayed, the Wendu people did not hesitate to turn their backs on Abitos. They even slaughtered the entire church for it. Although Yusuf and others are descendants of survivors, if you want to trace their roots, their ancestors are at most the most inconspicuous volunteers in the church.

The Tarans were eventually exterminated by the Wendu. The old rulers of Taran were conceptually erased by Abitos, and there was no possibility of resurrection. Abitos was then turned away from the civilization he had spawned. The Wendu Federation was almost wiped out, and in order to regain their life, they created a Federation host for themselves. And in order to complete the revenge, the Federation host even made the entire world face the danger of destruction.

The reason for all this is simply because a group of greedy old rulers want to provide themselves with a stable source of souls.
