(SF novel) East of Nakba (189)
Chapter 63 The virus came to Earth on a
meteorite (1) The birth of a galaxy (3/3)
Hundreds of millions of years ago, the virus jumped
on to one of the meteorites travelling space with high speed. The meteorite
collided with the earth 60 million years ago. The collision resulted in
disastrous climate change on the earth. Large creatures such as dinosaurs that
had flourished until then perished completely. The earth entered into the ice
age. The Galaxy continued its hibernation.
Galaxy could awaken and proliferate only when
they entered into creatures on Earth. However, if there was former inhabitant
inside the creature, it would try to eliminate the Galaxy which was a new comer.
A fierce survival battle had to take place there. Once the Galaxy was defeated
in battle, it expelled from the body of the host. It meant the death of the
Galaxy. As soon as the Galaxy had awakened from hibernation, therefore, it had
no way to survive except to parasitize its host. The host was the essential
life support system for the Galaxy.
