“According to reports, more than ten wild boars were shot dead in the forest near the city’s outskirts. Among them, there was a golden-skinned wild boar. It just got listed as a rare and protected animal. A special task force has already been deployed to investigate this matter. If you found any clues, please let us know and…”

Before the news finished broadcasting, Su Chen turned off the television.

There was a simple saying, “Foolish humans!”

Ignorance was terrifying.

There were so many harmless species on this planet, but they went extinct because of humans.

It was normal to protect those creatures.

However, these mutated wild boars were killing livestock and villagers!

Even if people were unaware of their mutation, they should know the threats posed by the wild boars.

How could they be classified as protected animals?

Was it because of the color and rarity of the skin?

Su Chen felt helpless.

“It’s a pity that these wild boars are dead.”

“Brothers, we should have struck first.”

“Those wild boars have harmed so many livestock. They deserved to die!”

“There’s a bounty on the person who hunted them? I don’t understand!”

“Actually, I’m curious. Does a wild boar’s meat taste good?”

“Wild boars are not as tasty as native boars. I’m talking about the black ones.”

“Yea, native boars are black and foreign boars are white.”

“A native boar’s meat can be very fragrant, but they have to be raised properly.”

“The person above is so cultured! I admire you!”

Su Chen took a shower. After eating, he began to look up information about the gold mine on the internet.

He wanted to know about the past and present of the gold mine.

Who was the first to mine it?

Why had it been abandoned for so many years?

However, he could not find anything.

There was nothing on the map.

Su Chen could only try and recall his memory, along with the sketch drawn by Officer Li.

There were probably many substances underground in this geographical location.

After being abandoned for so many years, the mine would most likely produce some sort of poisonous gas.

“Anunnaki!”

“Anunnaki!”

When Su Chen was looking for information about the gold mine, this word would pop up in his mind from time to time.

“Anunnaki?”

This word felt somewhat familiar.

As a transmigrator, tons of data had been incorporated into his mind.

However, not all of them had been accessed.

They would only come up in relevant scenarios.

“Anunnaki.”

Su Chen closed his eyes and began to focus.

He was trying to pull out the information about “Anunnaki” stored in his mind.

About two minutes later, Su Chen abruptly opened his eyes. His face was covered with a layer of sweat.

“Anunnaki” was an alien race from Planet Nibiru!

About four hundred and fifty thousand years ago, it had come to Earth to pillage valuable mineral resources, which included the gold mine.

It wanted to take the resources back to its own planet.

The alien had enslaved humans to work for it.

Nibiru would come once every three thousand and six hundred years.

Every time it came, it would bring massive disaster.

Su Chen calculated and came to the conclusion that the alien would pay another visit soon.

This would also explain why the world would become chaotic in a month’s time.

Officer Li did mention that supernatural incidents had happened near the gold mine.

Su Chen also remembered the blue light that fell into the forest.

Looking back, the blue light actually landed on where the gold mine was located!

Humans had developed their own consciousness and were no longer under the control of the Anunnakis. So, the aliens were going to destroy them!

Upon discovering this, Su Chen became even more determined to sign in at the gold mine.

In a way, the most dangerous place was the safest place!

The reward given would definitely provide Su Chen a better chance at survival in this chaotic world!

He paid a visit to a mining equipment shop.

“Boss, I want a set of equipment that’s suitable for mining.”

“Young man, why would you need those? The weather is so cold. You can’t go into the mines now. It’s too dangerous.”

“Boss, I need an anti-static suit. Please help me find one that fits. Also, I need a flashlight, some ropes, an oxygen tank holder, and a gas mask! That’s all.”

“Young man, listen to me. Now is not the time to go into a mine. It’s not safe!”

“According to reports, the eruption of Jiajia Volcano is equivalent to the power of 1,000 atomic bombs.”

As the shop owner was trying to dissuade Su Chen, he was interrupted by the television’s news broadcast.

“This eruption is about seven times more powerful than the last eruption. There are no signs of it stopping either. It will severely impact our planet.”

…

“Due to the huge amount of volcanic ash, gas, and water vapor, massive clouds were formed. It caused the surrounding temperature to drop below -100 degrees. Moreover, the air quality of the entire region has been seriously affected.”

The news showed the images of the clouds enveloping the sky.

Additionally, the islands nearby had sunk to the bottom of the sea. No traces were left behind.

“Oh no. Another volcano eruption! There have been too many disasters recently. I’ve lived for so many years. Yet, I’ve seen more disasters in these past two years than in my entire lifespan. Young man, take a look. There has been another volcanic eruption and earthquake. You really can’t go to the bottom of a mine!”

Su Chen smiled slightly. He made his payment, took his things, and left.

Even though he saw the scene of the volcano eruption on television, he was not afraid.

On the contrary, he was actually happy.

“Another dangerous place to sign in!”

“Ding! This is an automatic check-in. You have obtained doomsday supplies and a “Super Power Bar”!”

A few boxes of food appeared in front of Su Chen. They appeared to be biscuits.

“System, how does the power bar work?”

“If you eat one bar in the morning, you’ll have enough energy for the rest of the day.”

Su Chen packed up his things and went to bed early.

He needed to recuperate and conserve his energy.. The next morning, he would be setting off for the gold mine!
