Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803: Beliefs

One day, Tuzi AoFen presented her with a beast egg. To her shock, it turned out to be a dragon egg! Instinctively, she panicked and urged him to return the egg to its nest, fearing the fury of the entire dragon clan.

He reassured her that bringing the unborn dragon home wouldn’t invoke any trouble and that no one would dare come after her. However, she resolutely shook her head, unwilling to be selfish enough to steal a defenseless baby dragon from its rightful parents.

Even if she craved the strength to safeguard those she loved, she refused to inflict harm on others to gain that power. Perhaps it was her sentimental nature, but that was simply who she was

He had previously brought her the Phoenix egg, the Roc egg, and even the Fafnir egg, each of which she had turned down. A sense of dread washed over her as she grappled with a realization, yet she hesitated to voice her thoughts before hearing what he had to say.

Today, he presented her with extinct plants she had never imagined could exist in this age.

"They don’t have a name, but they’re referred to as Hadean Eon Plants. I’m not quite sure just how ancient they are, but they trace back to the Hadean Eon," he stated casually, a relaxed demeanor betraying her astonishment.

"What did you just say?" Her jaw dropped as her hands trembled around the bizarre, otherworldly plants.

The Hadean Eon marked the beginning of Earth’s geologic history, commencing around 4.6 billion years ago and concluding when the first discernible rocks formed roughly 4.031 billion years ago.

During that epoch, the Earth was still coalescing, plagued by hostile conditions characterized by violent volcanic eruptions and intense tectonic activity. There existed no evidence of plant life during this period. The earliest plant fossils emerged approximately 2.7 billion years later, in the Eoarchean era of the Archean Eon.

That was the information she had absorbed in school, and even if researchers delved into the subject, their findings would mirror her education. So why had Fen Fen claimed these peculiar plants were from the Hadean Eon?

"But geologists on Earth study the Hadean Eon through examining ancient rocks," she insisted, gazing at the outlandish plants, feeling almost entranced.

She understood that the world was replete with enigmas and that academic institutions often glossed over the intricate truths of existence, but this revelation was far beyond her imagination.

"By studying rocks? They didn’t originate in that era, how could they know?" He tilted his head, skepticism etched across his face.

"Geologists analyze materials, processes, and the history of the Earth. They explore how rocks were formed and what has transpired since their emergence," she attempted to articulate the knowledge she had gathered on Earth.

"Even though the rocks that record the earliest parts of Earth’s history have been destroyed or deformed over time by more than four billion years of geology, scientists can use modern rocks, moon samples, and meteorites to figure out when and how the Earth and moon formed, and what they might once have looked like." She continued, but with each word, a surreal sensation enveloped her.

"Xiao Yueyue, you humans appear to accept every utterance from scientists and experts without question," he laughed, amusement dancing in his eyes.

"Isn’t it interesting who we choose to believe?" She pondered, scratching her head.

Scientists had access to incredible technology and deep knowledge, but their aim wasn’t merely to "make people believe."
