Chapter 1: Bones in the Starry Sky
... ...
Boom
Zheng ! ''
A mysterious force has forcibly endowed certain animals with the ability to contract and expand their scales at will
A body larger than a tank, possessing boundless strength
The dazzling light can no longer be concealed at this moment, as if the Earth has gained a small sun.
The towering skyscrapers, it is unknown how many have collapsed, crashing down onto the streets. Cars are strewn across the streets, left to be smashed and have their windows shattered without anyone to attend to them
What appeared was an enormous bone, far beyond imagination, quietly manifesting at the edge of the solar system. Countless iron chains adorned with floating symbols vanished instantly, transforming into the myriad symbols that emerged on the bone, as if they were naturally grown on it, vivid and lifelike.
In the vast mountains, a gray wolf is lurking
Crying and wailing are everywhere, with people surviving like headless flies, flailing about aimlessly
Crying ... ...
The surrounding symbols cannot possibly be a celestial phenomenon; merely from the visuals and images, one can sense an ancient and fierce aura rushing forth, as if these symbols carry a terrifying destructive power. Their encirclement seems more like a storage of some impending storm.
Surpassed Mercury
The volume approaches that of the Moon
How is that possible
Astronomers from various countries were completely stunned, as this luminous sphere expanded at an astonishing speed. Both the rate of expansion and its size left them in shock. Who could have imagined that this luminous body would grow to the size of Venus in just half an hour?
After the luminous object appeared for nearly three hours, it was discovered by the most renowned observatory in the United States at the earliest opportunity, located right next to Uranus
The sound of birdsong rose up, soaring into the sky, sweeping across the ground, piercing through gold and splitting stones
A massive hole has been blasted into the wall, and the swirling dust obscures the visibility of the actual outcome of the battle
For ordinary people, they are not concerned about anything else; they are only interested in whether extraterrestrial civilizations have emerged
The terrifying omen makes some perceptive individuals seem to realize that this luminous body is not as simple as it appears on the surface
In the ocean, countless fish and marine creatures floated to the surface, layer upon layer, densely packed, creating an endless shimmer of scales across the entire sea area
From a distance, this is a massive luminous body emitting a faint glow. Occasionally, amidst the flickering light, one can observe its enormous form, which is adorned with countless large, fiery red floating sigils that twist and move.
In a forested area
The patch of deep green on the scorpion's sting seems to carry a deadly poison
In just one day, the vast city has turned into a wasteland, becoming a paradise for ferocious beasts
A massive black ape was fiercely pounding the ground, and amidst the thunderous noise, it stood up, its body similarly adorned with mysterious and intricate symbols. Starting from its feet, thick scales continuously emerged, enveloping it completely, resembling a bizarre machine.
Bang ... ...
It is uncertain how long it has been, but when this beam of light appeared in the Milky Way, it was as if a new continent had been discovered, and this beam of light suddenly came to a halt
The fierce and twisted process of mutation caused this originally great white shark to struggle
... ...
An eight-legged spider crawls on this broken building, emitting a hissing sound from its mouth. Its entire body is covered in dark scales, with some black hairs growing in the gaps of the scales. Its eight legs are strong and powerful, directly piercing through the wall to secure itself to the structure.
This ... ...
One of the city landmarks, a building that now has only over thirty floors, is where this strange sound originated from
At the command, three heavy tanks fired simultaneously
Wings as strong as steel, in their flapping, allowed this great eagle to instantly break the sound barrier and swiftly disappear into the distance
A leisurely swimming great white shark possesses the ability to transform, with its head as the starting point, its genes continuously rearranging, resulting in the emergence of numerous large tentacles adorned with eyes. Its tail splits, transforming into two fan-shaped tails. The midsection of its body is covered with dense and thick crimson scales, armed to the teeth
This ... ...
Within the range of the light beam, the seawater appears to be boiling, and any marine life that comes into contact with it is instantly vaporized
Once the mutation was complete, it was in a ferocious state, with enormous tentacles adorned with eyes suddenly illuminating. Each tentacle extended straight, and then it ejected a dozen thick beams of light, astonishingly disregarding the effects of the seawater, and surged towards the distance
Not long after the gray wolf left, a tremendous banging sound echoed through the mountains. A large chunk of the mountain was actually smashed away, and a gigantic black scorpion, towering one and a half stories high, crawled out. Its body was covered in thick, heavy armor, reflecting a cold metallic sheen in the sunlight. The sharp scorpion tail was raised high, swaying as it crawled.
Ocean
On the street, a tank squad consisting of three heavy tanks has already aimed their cannons at this octopus spider
The next second
The sound that diffused was like a roar echoing through the universe, and this luminous sphere finally revealed its true form amidst the blue specks of light
Like a massive light hole emitting blue light, it is slowly rotating, hanging in the starry sky like the sun
What kind of joke is this
Howl
24 hours
Oh, it is almost equal in volume to Mars
The Earth is slowly rotating, a blue sphere that stands out among other celestial bodies, resembling the most brilliant and resplendent pearl in the universe
In the next second after the expansion ceased, the originally golden light gradually transformed into a blue point of light
Suddenly, the gray wolf's body was visibly growing at an astonishing speed. Originally standing at 70 centimeters tall, it had already surpassed 1.5 meters in the blink of an eye. This incredible transformation brought not only an increase in size but also the emergence of sharp claws, and its body became covered with a layer of constantly appearing scales, ultimately turning it into a fearsome scaled giant wolf
A scene that is both awe-inspiring and astonishing, each line and pattern above seems to carry an unparalleled magic
As the information relayed back from the astronomical telescope increases, the images become clearer and clearer, and one by one, the astronomers are becoming increasingly excited, for this enormous luminous body appears to be an extraterrestrial visitor, having emerged in the solar system without any warning, marking a definitive breakthrough in the history of astronomy
The vast city is filled with ruins and broken walls everywhere
Oh God, what is this thing
Once again, after a few seconds, this piece of bone in the starry sky erupted with a dazzling light that was blinding. The runes on the bone rose one by one, dancing rapidly, forming a massive opening resembling a black hole. Countless blue lights surged out from the opening, scattering across this vast solar system
Once again, the howl of the wolf brings forth the swaying of countless trees in the mountains, as the disordered leaves from the trees fall, accumulating into a thick layer
United States, National Optical Astronomy Observatory
The animals' shrill cries and roars, in their agitation, charge recklessly; the once docile creatures have transformed into ferocious beings
Images of enormous luminous bodies were transmitted back, with clearly visible symbols surrounding these luminous entities, flying around in a regular pattern
Billions of stars collectively form a vast and rootless map of the galaxy
The exclamations of the tank soldiers rang out, and in the next moment, the octopus spider landed on top of the tank, pressing the entire vehicle beneath its abdomen. It raised one of its limbs high and struck down violently onto the tank's roof.
In the twinkling stars, no one notices a unique source of light flying through the vast sea of stars. It sweeps past one galaxy after another, like a comet, without a moment's pause, moving at an astonishing speed.
Howl
The gray wolf, which had undergone a significant transformation, leaped and was already several dozen meters away. Upon landing, its claws effortlessly sank into the rock, leaving behind a series of newly dug claw marks on the surface of the rock when it departed
An increasing number of astronomy enthusiasts have also discovered this enormous luminous entity, with images appearing online, sparking countless discussions. The clearly visible symbols on it are mysterious and terrifying, resembling gigantic, rusted iron chains glowing with fire as they dance.
In the rootless universe, the twinkling starlight transforms into countless stars in the eyes of people
Two armor-piercing shells and one high-explosive shell whistled away, striking the octopus spider with a time difference of no more than 0.01 seconds
Open fire
Mysterious Civilization
A shadow sprang out from the large hole, and while still in the air, it revealed its true form, which was that of an octopus spider. What is unimaginable is that the armor-piercing round fired from a heavy tank merely left a fist-sized dent on its body, which could only be considered a minor injury
Whoosh
The enormous luminous body hovering there stood quietly, resembling a star
In this sea of countless blue light points, humanity will never be able to discern the differences among them; it seems to envelop something, carrying a certain special mission
Suddenly, the gray wolf let out a painful howl, and on its body appeared intricate and mysterious patterns, covering it completely
All the animals on Earth exhibited unparalleled aggression after the appearance of this luminous entity
Half an hour later, an increasing number of national observatories also discovered this luminous object
In the sky
Every person on Earth can gaze through the clouds at this additional luminous body, momentarily rendered speechless
In the distance, a gigantic beast nearly ten stories tall walked slowly, crashing into buildings and forcefully collapsing the towering structures. Wherever it passed, it carved a massive path through the city.
An elliptical bone the size of Venus
Before any actions were taken by the countries of the Earth, the celestial body that had been hovering at the outermost edge of the solar system finally made a move
On Earth, just a few days later, these blue light spots rushed into the atmosphere
However, it has reached the volume of Venus
Hiss ... ...
Layer upon layer of reports, continuously alarming various departments
Bone
A large eagle soared past, and as it flew, mysterious symbols appeared on its body. In the next moment, its feathers became smooth and shiny, as hard as if forged from steel. This large eagle, while gliding, transformed into a colossal creature with a wingspan of over one hundred meters, casting a vast shadow on the ground
This luminous body is preliminarily estimated to have a volume of approximately 70% of that of the Moon
The piercing metallic tearing sound is unbearable, as the top armor of the heavy tank is actually being sliced open by an octopus spider
Alien
"Damn, is a new civilization emerging?"
Like a machine that has been activated, the luminous body emits an even more intense glow. The symbols, which previously resembled rusted iron chains, continuously expand in a surrounding manner, causing this luminous body to expand at an astonishing speed, its volume surpassing that of the Moon in the blink of an eye
