The South Loya Empire is a remnant of the last civilization, and it was once one of the great powers of the world.

In the unknown era, a huge meteorite struck the planet, and although most of the countries of the world joined forces to develop a complete planetary defense system, this unusual meteorite hole penetrated all their defenses and fell into the capture orbit of the planet.

A devastating catastrophe broke out.

The initial arrival caused more than 10 magnitude earthquakes in various places, and the shock wave generated destroyed almost everything on the ground.

With the mass of the meteorite, according to the scientists' budget, it was supposed to destroy the planet, but it slowed down as it approached the surface, and then began to merge with the planet as if it had a living force.

The violent crustal movements caused by the convergence caused frequent eruptions of volcanoes, making the climate extremely harsh.

The country near the crash site has been devastated and no longer exists, and only the predecessor of the South Loya Empire has been saved because it is isolated and on the other side of the planet.

However, their situation is also very dangerous, energy crisis, food crisis, water crisis, countless disasters are trying to extinguish the embers of civilization completely.

No one knows how they survived, and ten years after the meteorite and the planet ended merging, the first Imperial Exploration Force broke through the abandoned subway system and came to the surface untouched for years.

By this time, Southern Loya had built a civilized world underground, and its population had recovered to one-fifth of what it was before the disaster.

After careful consideration, the Imperial Government began to rebuild its homes on the ground, and continued to send exploration teams to explore the present-day world.

The empire was fortunate in that it had built underground nuclear power plants and factories at the time of the stalemate between the great powers, and that technology was only thirty years behind before the catastrophe began.

However, due to the disaster, in order to obtain sufficient resources and food underground, the Empire's technology in grain cultivation and comprehensive recycling has far surpassed the original, which helped the Empire to develop ground grain fields and resource recycling at the beginning of the Revival Era.

The extreme natural disasters caused by the fusion of meteorites and planets have wiped out almost all traces of humanity on the planet's surface, with only a few military forts and a few surface structures that have survived the storm remain.

Moreover, the movement of the earth's crust has changed the world beyond recognition, and the exploration team needs to map the current world in addition to exploring areas suitable for building cities, growing food, and mining ore.

Fifteen years later, an exploration team discovered a remnant satellite signal receiving station, and after a brief restoration by the team's engineers, they were able to make contact with an old geostationary satellite.

The Imperial Government attached great importance to this, and immediately sent not only top-notch scientific research teams, but also a large number of military and engineering troops.

The site has been designated as a space exploration base for the Empire, and the research team has set out to study and repair the facilities and systems. Engineering troops began digging the satellite signal receiving station out of the dirt.

A year later, the geostationary orbit satellite that was originally used for navigation gave the empire a panoramic view of the planet since the first era of calamity.

The image is very blurry, and it seems that there is a powerful source of interference on the planet that is interfering with the operation of the satellite, or that the satellite is already close to being obsolete. But in any case, this gave the people of the empire great confidence, and people were full of hope for the future.

The square where the news was reported was almost enveloped in cheers.

In order to conserve resources, all paper and electronic resources that can be saved are strictly controlled by the imperial government. So nowadays people can only watch public TV, that is, the big screen in the square.

A year later, the ruins near the satellite signal receiving station were excavated, and the Empire was given a rocket launch site here

Three years later, the first meteorological satellite was sent into space from here, and it will reduce the damage caused by disaster attacks for the Empire.

In the following five years, communications, navigation, mapping, and surveying satellites entered the planet's orbit one after another.

During this period, in order to prevent the obsolete satellites that had become space junk from interfering with the Empire's launch plans, the Empire had to launch several pathfinder satellites.

These pathfinder satellites are broadly divided into two categories, one is the exploratory type, which is responsible for exploring the general distribution of abandoned satellites. The second type is the clean-up type, which is responsible for cleaning these satellites.

With the help of these satellites, the empire began to flourish. Several cities have been established on the ground.

Two years later, the Empire's exploration force came to the edge of the meteorite and planetary convergence point.

It has become strange for everyone, no, it can even be said to be weird.

Huge sarcomas stood silently there, countless roots connected to the ground, and the ground was shrouded in a thick blanket of fungi.

It turned out that hidden under a white cloud was such a scene.

The blankets were expanding, and along with them were some monsters. The exploration team unexpectedly broke out into a battle with them, resulting in heavy losses.

The Imperial government blocked the news of the exploration team, and immediately after that, preparations began.

After sending several armies to fight against it, the Imperial Research Department was given a lot of research resources to study these things and how to deal with them.

The military department of the empire began to form an army to deal with these monsters with the update of scientific research. Supporting training is also under development.

The news was made public, and the empire began to conscript troops to call for popular support.

Three years later, all attempts to contact the rest of the country had failed, and the South Loya Empire was no longer bothered to prepare for war on these matters.

The Imperial War Department began to build a steel defense line in the planned area.

A year later, the Empire's forward outposts were able to observe the fungus blanket.

The following year, the first battle to defend the homeland began.

A total of one million defensive troops entered the positions, and various artillery, missile vehicles, and rocket units were also heavily suppressed.

The monster unleashed the most ferocious attack, blasting through the line like an ocean.

The area where the blanket is located is spread with parasites and bacteria that can be infected by people.

Fortunately, the Empire had been prepared for it, and a large number of flame launchers and gas masks were equipped with troops on the front lines.

The medical department in the rear is also equipped with a field hospital for isolation and prevention and control.

This battle was narrowly won by the Empire, which stopped the spread of the fungus blanket at the cost of 600,000 soldiers killed and more than a million soldiers disabled, and set it back ten kilometers.

The Empire began to rebuild its defenses, and the scientific and military departments began to learn the lessons of the battle.

The Second Battle for the Homeland began a year later, but this time the Empire was defeated.

Among those monsters, a new species has appeared that specializes in dealing with the Imperial forces. A Beast that can resist gunpowder weapons, an Acid Beast that can attack from a distance and spray strong acid, and a Poison Mist Beast that can spit poison.

The emergence of these new species caused a large number of casualties among the Imperial army and damage to the fortifications of the defensive line at the beginning of the war, which had already suffered heavy losses before the troops could adapt.

As a result of this battle, the empire was forced to retreat thirty kilometers, and the casualties were conservatively estimated at two million.

This major blow had a profound impact on the Empire, as the forward positions and fortresses that had been built at a great cost of resources fell into the hands of the enemy, which greatly increased the pressure on the Empire in the ensuing struggle.

The most important point is that the Empire has only defended itself against the spread of the fungus blanket in one direction, while the rest of the world is devouring the surface of the planet uncontrollably.

It can be observed by satellites, and a third of the entire planet is covered by impenetrable clouds.

It was at this time that another group of extraterrestrial visitors arrived on the planet.

Of course, it doesn't seem right to say that the swarm is a silicon-based life that has joined together to form an entirely new entity.

。

"So, guess who this civilized individual is?" The black-robed man asked.

“。。。 Could it be that ... Is it the former Veroya? I said incredulously.

"That's right, it's the former Veroya." The black-robed man nodded.

Unbelievable.

。

This individual is the embodiment of a civilization, she came to this planet for some reason, only that after her arrival, she cooperated with the South Loya Empire to deal with monsters together.

With the help of an individual, tentatively called "Veroya", the Empire's military technology has advanced by leaps and bounds.

The South Loya Empire set out to build a global satellite network and a ground-based, sea-based support system.

After a decade of forbearance, a massive counteroffensive began.

With wave after wave of nuclear bomb strikes, the Imperial Army, dressed in exoskeletons and full defensive equipment, began to attack the Fungus Blanket area with the rumbling high-speed Land Cruisers.

At great cost, the South Loya Empire succeeded in forcing the Fungus Blanket back to an island, and then built a defensive barrier to envelop the Fungus Carpet area.

This change brought the meteorite back to life.

Merging with the planet allows it to influence the operation of the entire planet.

The Empire was prepared for this, and various shelters were opened to contain the population before the disaster began.

The Second Epoch of Calamity began.

Angry living meteorites first flipped the planet's magnetic poles, and then storms, earthquakes, and tsunamis of all kinds, hitting every part of the globe.

The empire responds to this with a network of satellites that have long been built.

The storm of natural disasters was followed by an ice age that lasted for several years.

Finally, there were meteorite rains that continued for weeks.

The satellite network of the South Loya Empire has been devastated, and some of the Vaults have been completely destroyed or have lost contact with their energy supplies. The fate of those who hide in these shelters can be imagined.

Everything on the ground has been almost wiped clean. The population plummeted by a third.

But the price was worth it, and the living meteorite finally revealed its true colors.
