Chapter 1094: Chattar

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The living habits of the otherworldling creatures had always exceeded the imagination. One would never be able to figure out what kind of strange things these guys would suddenly come up with. Nevertheless, seeing was believing. Lily shapeshifted after eating Spicy Sticks, and Nangong Wuyue got drunk from drinking detergent. Hao Ren would proceed to swear on the statue of Raven 12345 that the siren volunteered to go with him only because she needed to stretch a little after getting drunk.
But getting drunk on detergent? That was something new.
Nangong Wuyue decided to tag along, so did her elder brother. Though not a master in combat, Nangong Sanba’s observation, and survival skills were unparalleled. Everyone had strength. Hao Ren felt that Nangong Sanba would be of help in exploring the otherworldly dimension, which had lost contact with the primary material world for more than two thousand years.
As for Y’zaks, his decision was an easy one: since the Coldpath incident, he and Y’lisabet had been completely immersed in the business of collecting old appliances for nearly two months. The father and daughter had basically collected every single last piece of old apparatus they could get their hands on in the quiet Southern Suburbs. There were not many things for them to do now.
If Hao Ren did not keep them occupied, perhaps Y’zaks was going to shift his battleground into the city.
Except for the Nangong couples who had to look after their restaurant and Rollie who had to look after Lil Pea, Hao Ren took everyone else onboard the Petrachelys and headed to meet Galazur.
Before setting off, they did not forget to bring a vital person: Mimir.
This old giant would negotiate with Yggdrasil.
“To tell the truth, Mr. Landlord, I think something is not right,” Lily said, resting herself on the back of Hao Ren’s chair on the flight deck. “Do you think it is going to be all right taking Mimir to see Yggdrasil just like this?”
While reading about Chattar Civilization Sphere, Hao Ren asked without looking up, “Is there a problem?”
Lily fiddled with her fingers and said, “Mimir and Yggdrasil are brothers, right?”
“Right.”
“Yggdrasil must be very nervous and paranoid now, right?”
“Right.”
“Do you think the World Tree would get mad when he saw his brother’s head in our hands?”
“Holy moly! Nolan, stop the spaceship!”
Cold sweat was trickling down everyone’s forehead. As much as the husky was naive, they had to admit that Lily had an excellent discerning ability. Just when they were scrambling to find a way to make this look more amiable, the voice of Mimir suddenly sounded in their mind. “Don’t worry about it. I will explain it to Yggdrasil through telepathy before he finds out my condition.”
Mimir’s head was now on the flight deck. Compared with his huge siblings, he did not have to stay in the cargo bay while onboard the spaceship. His head and the base that he was sitting on were much taller than a human, but he could still fit in the flight deck.
So he had heard what Lily said and what they had discussed.
Hao Ren glanced at Mimir. What Mimir said made sense to him. He breathed a sigh of relief. “Well, Nolan, keep flying.”
Nolan pouted. “Don’t step on the brake suddenly while the spacecraft is flying. It is bad for the engine if you doing it too often.”
Hao Ren laughed wryly, thinking that she should complain it to Lily. He then bowed his head and continued studying about Chattar Civilization Sphere.
Chattar galaxy, or Chatter Civilization Sphere, was the largest and oldest area of civilization in the galaxy cluster, which was densely populated and divided into many administrative regions. A senior inspector had been overseeing this area for the past thousands of years.
Chattar was different from other places. It did not have a unified civilization but a loosely-governed community of hundreds of races. These races originally had a common origin. Tens of thousands of years ago, before Xi Ling Celestials kept an eye on this world, a powerful humanoid had ruled thousands of star systems in Chattar galaxy. But, like most mortal civilizations, this civilization began to collapse, disintegrating into thousands of kingdoms. Their numbers declined further in the subsequent ten thousand years, leaving behind only a few hundred primitive kingdoms.
After thousands of years of complete isolation, these primitive kingdoms had taken entirely on different paths. Some of these primitive kingdoms had re-emerged as space nations, while others still used swords and bows to fight. Some had mastered different magic powers in the new environment, while some had wholly transformed their planets into a huge steam-age factory. Among all these kingdoms, some had re-established fragile relationships, found the secrets of their ancestors through war and friction, and began to rebuild their glorious ancient civilizations, or kill each other. But still, some thought that they were the only oasis of life in the universe.
This was Chattar, a chaotic, ancient, divided, and turbulent galaxy that filled with endlessly colorful details. Here, one could find the primitive and isolated land of swords and magic, and interstellar empire that had outposts all over the space. They all shared the same ancient lineage in DNA.
The name Chattar derived from a former civilization. This ancient civilization that had disappeared in the long river of history called its parent star Chattar. After they entered space, they still called their parent star this name to help them navigate home. But, after this civilization fell apart, no one used this star to guide them home anymore. There was only a planet-class dying kingdom around Chattar star. This kingdom called itself the Forgotten Descendants, they were the only ‘rightful heirs’ who still preserved the history and traditions of ancient times. Their planet had the last civilization database of Chattar. But not long ago, even the last descendants of Chattar had left their old sun.
Because the star of Chattar was dying.
As far as Hao Ren knew, it was the intervention of a local inspector that had prevented a mass extinction event. The inspector evacuated all life on the planet. But this also meant that the last trace of the ancient civilization had also completely disappeared from their homeland. Since then, no matter what new kingdoms the indigenous creatures in the Chattar area formed, it would not have any connection with their ancestors.
It was a sad story; a story that spanned 46,000 years, during which thousands of kingdoms had risen and fallen with countless stories of heroes and sagas. Out of all these events, there were only 728 records of them.
But this did not include those civilizations that had died and disappeared before Xi Ling Celestials came into being.
Putting aside the historical materials of Chattar galaxy, Hao Ren focused on the information provided by the local inspector.
Though there were hundreds of independent civilizations within the region, they were generally grouped into a civilization sphere following the universal convention. The one who was responsible for this was the Great Sage, Anthony Alfonso. Anthony Alfonso was a mighty master of the arcane, formerly a royal court magician in a magical world in Chattar. One time after the goddess got severely drunk, Anthony Alfonso was suddenly promoted as an inspector. And because the Chattar Galaxy was adjacent to Saint Sur IV, Anthony Alfonso and the inspector of Saint Sur IV, Galazur had a pretty good relationship. The two inspectors often gave each other assistance in dealing with issues involving mutual border jurisdictions. The Galaxy Movement Order issued by Hao Ren belonged to this type of cooperation.
This was also why when Yggdrasil stopped in Chattar, it was Galazur who sent out the alert.
Among all the inspectors, the dragon queen was the closest acquaintance of Hao Ren, so it was easier to communicate with an acquaintance.
As Hao Ren read till the last page of the material, the Petrachelys was arriving its destination.
