Chapter 58: Chapter 50: Shocked—I’ve Traveled Back Hundreds of Thousands of Years on Earth?
"From today onwards, I begin to establish a nation!"
She shouted, and history would remember this great moment, "Meanwhile, this race is merely the lowest tier of monsters on this land. Our journey is still extremely long!"
She planned to develop this insect civilization to reach the top of the food chain.
And just as she said, the future was very long.
Though mutated and grotesque, she recognized at a glance that it was a cockroach.
And this prehistoric world of ruins is indeed terrifying.
Even a cockroach is so frightening; it could probably easily tear human skin there, moving so fast that humans find it hard to catch up... let alone other creatures?
It truly is a prehistoric and perilous world, with dangers lurking everywhere.
At this moment, a well-built Angel approached and spoke, "Great Master, what should we name our race, our kingdom?"
She fell silent for a moment, finding it difficult to come up with a name. Since it’s a new species of ant + duck...
"We shall call ourselves the Ant-Duck Tribe, and our kingdom is the great Angel Country," she said, revealing her lack of cultural sophistication.
"Thank you, Great King!"
"This world shall see the rise of another great empire!"
"Angel Empress Gelu Rili!"
...
Qin Hong didn’t want to speak.
Pheromone exchange couldn’t really form her Chinese name, all were just homophones, so she couldn’t be bothered with it.
Very soon, the cockroaches were defeated, and their complete extermination was just a matter of time.
Thus, the Angel Empress, reigned supreme!
Time flew by, and this race never had a moment of leisure.
The crazed expansion saw their numbers soar once more.
Angel Era.
Rebuilding the Mechanical Dynasty’s crafts, yet never again seeing those ancient deities and demons descend for transactions.
Though she was puzzled, she didn’t know what exactly happened back then; after all, only some foolish and low-intelligent people remained, so she could only study new mechanical crafts to withstand the future behemoths.
"As a super small insect-wise species, I came into this world..."
"Rats, wild birds, even insects and venomous snakes... these are the truly terrifying ones." She was cautious, striving for governance, bringing a brand-new modern civilization to them.
She worked diligently, began reforms, abolished slavery across nations, advocated for equality, and guided the lower-class citizens, giving them opportunities for promotion.
She established the Mechanical Industrial Academy, set up the Smelting Department, Warfare Technology Department, Medicine Department, and major basic disciplines, and regularly had Martial Dao teachers lead students out for hunting!
She began to establish a Mercenary Guild, calling on powerful martial artists to form mercenary groups, slaughter the exotic beasts outside, harvest their body materials, and exchange them for wealth.

"Principles and Crafts of Mechanics"

"Spirit Nourishment"
...
Various knowledge was being written down.
In a short period, a multitude of geniuses emerged, countless brilliant Angels competing, gradually gaining fame across the vast land kingdom.
The Empress was the source Ant Queen mother of all Angels.
After two generations of common people’s alternation, she was widely spread as kind and valiant among the populace, invincible in strength, mysterious and unpredictable, from the ancient heavens...
All these achievements were attributed to her divinity, with many even beginning to compare her with ancient deities, writing her praises and myths in various villages.
Countless inhabitants of the land considered this Angel Empress a dream lover, and countless young talents yearned for her.
"The Country of No Return" records:
"Angels have replaced Pharaoh, residing in the high clouds, ruling the beings on Earth."
...
The first century of the Angel Dynasty.
Qin Hong sat high above, folding her white wings, draped in a black armor, looking bewildered at the subordinates below reporting the situation,
"Great King of the Angel’s Nest, the Master of the Sky, Her Majesty Empress Gere Rui Li, the population on the ground has already exceeded seventeen million!" one minister said, "The food has been depleted, and we have occupied the entire house. Should we attack outside?"
Qin Hong took a deep breath and said, "Attack!"
She guessed the outside was the stairway street, and indeed it was.
The hallway was shrouded in a thin layer of mist, obscuring the view of what lay within. She planned to explore these apartments one by one.
...
On the other side.
Qin Hong opened the door.
"This is the reply," said the middle-aged neighbor.
But looking at Qin Hong, he felt as if the other person was a terrifying spirit and presence, forming a great oppressive force.
This pressure almost made him kneel, as if he was seeing the Human Emperor of ancient times.
Those eyes were soul-stirring, unparalleled in dominance... it was as if returning thousands of years to the unyielding and unified eternal emperor of that ancient land.
"My evidence of spirit will, although very small, only the spirit aura of an insect’s size... but to ordinary people, it’s already..." Qin Hong closed the door, her heart shocked.
Very curious.
For other martial artists, the spirit I attest to is an unimaginable opportunity, only possible in truly unifying the world, but how easy is that?
She received a letter back from a good sister.
This was a kind girl she knew, willing to help her — she learned to read and write through the girl’s introduction... It’s just a pity that half of her studies were interrupted by family trouble, leaving her sister unable to afford her further education, so she had to find a way to earn money herself.
The letter read: "The information you wanted me to check is detailed as follows, it’s from Professor Naxika’s research. Just this professor doesn’t know the reason, and is collecting and organizing this data."
A picture was attached to the letter.
Directly, a terrifying scene appeared before her.
She saw it recorded on ancient archaeological stone tablets.
"On the first day, Amiro came and granted life to the beings on the earth."
"On the second day, Hemoens came and granted knowledge to the beings on the earth."
"On the third day, Jiaxia came and granted wisdom and deception to the beings on the earth."
"Prehistory, truly unearthed through archaeological relics beneath our feet!"
Qin Hong’s skin broke out in goosebumps.
This meant that it indeed happened in the distant prehistoric era — it wasn’t fictional.
Her friends, and even that history professor, thought it was just mythology, ancient spiritual beliefs of civilization, but she knew it was true!
The letter also included words from that girl on the other side,
"Professor Naxika found it very interesting, saying these ancient predecessors could write such interesting stories, and looking at the third slab symbolizing desecration, she said... from the third day, humanity gained wisdom and so deception was born... meaningful teachings! She plans to write it as a children’s myth book, for New Continent’s children as fables, now letting her child read the drafts."
"If there are no unforeseen events, it will be seen soon."
Qin Hong fell silent for a moment, continuing to read on.
"The ancient civilization you asked to check, I think, is probably Anunnaki, ant friend."
"From Nibiru, it’s said that Anunnaki came from the distant outer world, possessing the ability to create, blending countless species together and gradually ascending the ecological chain, ultimately creating humans."
Upon hearing this, Qin Hong’s skin broke out in goosebumps.
She seemed to understand now, the most ancient origin of that deity and demon era...
The place she dreamt of visiting was likely Nibiru, the "divine ark," the origin of life’s creation, mixing the genes of countless species, creating wise life.
"As for the flood you mentioned, the Sumerian King List records it."
The letter enclosed an attached King List.
"Sumerian King List." Qin Hong carefully read and was thoroughly astonished — before the flood, the gods had lifespans of tens of thousands of years, but after the flood, the first god’s lifespan was only over a thousand years.
She felt it was close to the truth, relating to the history she observed, "The desolate world I visited, I secretly studied the sky, no wonder the astronomical and star patterns were identical, because it was exactly the Earth hundreds of thousands of years ago!"
She was clever, understanding to study star patterns to determine her position.
"What exactly is that deity and demon! Being able to traverse vast timelines! Sending me back to those far-reaching prehistoric times of hundreds of thousands of years!"
"I arrived shortly after the great prehistoric flood, recorded in all major ancient myths! A desolate ruin shrouded in white mist just after the outbreak!"
"Perhaps my servitor level is too low to create higher-level life. Thus, I could only choose a low-life insect species to start, going back to that distant past, joining the lowest tier insect wise group of that era!"
"Surely, in those misty absurd ruin eras, there were many truly powerful species, possibly remnants of prehistoric humans... all recording this stone tablet."
Lastly, she saw the latest archaeological murals.
An ancient Anunnaki sat on a stone chair in front of whom lay a scroll-wrapped staff, instructing the humans on the ground.
