Chapter 256: History is secret

Views:

In the dead of night, there was a bonfire burning on the top of the ancient tree hills. Everyone relaxes.

Todd lay in a grass nest and fell asleep, Mondino and Old Borg were sorting out the harvest of this expedition, Adrian wandered around, and a few strange creatures chirping together to play together.

The relics of Silver Leaf City that aroused the surprise of the North Land were under their feet, but at this moment no one wanted to go in again.

Everyone is tired.

The'Gate of True Knowledge' opened, and the original Silver Leaf Palace was now only the size of a study. Zhou Qingfeng stepped in and took the first large book from the shelf.

The'Gate of True Knowledge' is first of all a library, systematically recording all the history, culture and technology of the elves. The first book on the shelf is the general outline of the history of elven civilization.

This is a growing wonder. With the increase of users, the area of the study room will gradually become larger, and there will be more and more books on the shelves. The area has been expanded from three or four square meters to seven or eight square meters.

Zhou Qingfeng sat at the simple table, flipping through pages of history books written by elves.

From the "Thunder Age" 35,000 years ago, to the "Dawn Era" 24,000 years ago, to the "First Prosperity" 12,000 years ago, the rise of mankind about 4,000 years ago. .. ....

In the ancient times, the continent had no shit about humans, and even giant dragons had to stand aside. That was the age of some extremely ancient and primitive creatures. Such as murlocs and snake people.

In a long period of time, the elves recorded the historical information they collected as much as possible.

"The books in the Gate of True Knowledge come from the Crown Library of Yongju Island. They are simply summarized and organized by an elf prophet thousands of years ago. He chose as much useful information as possible and compiled them into a book, and kept about thirty-thirtieth of the original library. One’s content."

Xili sat next to her, watching Zhou Qingfeng slowly flipping through the book, and casually commenting. Zhou Qingfeng asked strangely: "One-thirtieth is so much? Who is this prophet?"

Xili just smiled and pointed to the rows of bookshelves in front of the desk, "I am not allowed to reveal the name of this prophet. But he is in these books. If approved, he will naturally come out to find you."

Zhou Qingfeng raised his head to look at not only the increased bookshelf, he stretched his waist in a dizzy mind, and let Shumei turn the pages for him. He is now focusing on Faerun's history books, hoping to learn more about this world full of various planes and countless possibilities.

Xili asked again: "Victor, do you have any gains in the books?"

Zhou Qingfeng has a history book called "The Dark Scourge", which records the huge disaster that occurred about 13,000 years ago. There was a elven kingdom called'Mylita' which was destroyed by a storm that lasted for three months.

The storm was so terrible, it scared the whole Faerun elves. They believe that it was the high wizards of'Malletta' who created the storm. But why the wizards want to create this storm of destroying themselves, the book does not say.

"I have a feeling that every time Faerun’s civilization develops to a high level, it will inevitably lead to a huge disaster. Wars, famines, demonic invasions, irrational natural disasters, so civilization is destroyed, and then renewed. begin.

Every thousand to fifteen hundred years, this kind of thing will inevitably happen somewhere in Faerun. Looking at these historical records, countless countries have been destroyed.

More than 30,000 years ago, an ancient lizard established the Mersok Empire. After only two thousand years, the ancient lizard began to decline, and the snake man took control of the empire. However, the continuous civil strife caused the snake-man’s rule to remain unstable until it was completely destroyed by the dragon thousands of years later.

The dragons are not getting better either. The war between them and the giant race has not stopped until one day when the elves use the "Dragon Madness Lock" to completely settle it. This powerful species is now like giants, all shrinking to the corners of the continent to survive.

As for the elves, human beings now feel that the elves are secluded, peaceful, and leisurely. But there have been uninterrupted wars between the many countries they have established. Until they crippled themselves to play, they could only flee the mainland in a desperate manner and hid in Yongju Island.

Human civilization has been 10,000 years old, and it has flourished since 4,000 years ago. During this period, many great nations were born and countless civilizations were created. Netheril, Imascar, and Karinshan, these empires rose and fell, constantly changing.

Dragons, giants, elves, dwarves, humans, even orcs and goblins have established their own civilizations and kingdoms. But none of them can escape a periodic process of destruction. Whenever it is said in the history books that their civilization has developed to a very high level, their extinction is imminent. "

"This kind of cliff-like destruction is unreasonable." Zhou Qingfeng sighed.

Xili said, "Isn't that the case with the wise race? Wars and destruction are happening every day. It's not uncommon at all. At least before the destruction, these great empires had prospered."

"No, it's not that simple." Zhou Qingfeng shook his head in a deep voice, "I got a wind forging machine in Harmony Village. I always thought that no one had invented it in the past. You can look at the records of the history of science and technology, elves, dwarves and even goblins. Have created the same thing."

"Goblins have been civilized?" Xili asked in surprise. She couldn't imagine the civilization of those green-skin monsters who only barked'Ok Ouk'. "The'Gate of True Knowledge' also records the civilization of the goblin? I don't even know."

"This is exactly what I suspected." Zhou Qingfeng put down the "Dark Natural Disaster" in his hand, "Fifty years ago, the devil invaded the Northland, and Silver Leaf City suffered disaster at its most prosperous and powerful moment

Several powerful countries in the Northland were also destroyed together. This seemed to be a punishment, a punishment that even the devil did not dare to speak, directly ruining the future of the Northland. What caused civilization to continue to be destroyed without even leaving a trace of inheritance. "

Zhou Qingfeng's mood is confused. He looked down at the desk, and all the history books on the desk told him-this damn alien world, civilization has no future, only reincarnation.

"I live in such a ghost place, it's so damn sad." Zhou Qingfeng was upset. The direct consequence of the reincarnation of civilization is that his life is extremely backward-poor housing, poor food, poor clothing, and few beautiful girls.

The people in the Black Forest eat chaff and swallow vegetables, and their lives are extremely difficult. With less wood chips in the black bread, the people underneath praised President Hugo's generosity and kindness.

Zhou Qingfeng originally thought that this was the reason why the Black Forest could not grow food. According to the succubus, even in the southern grain production areas, the crop yields are so small. If the nobles eat more, the serfs will have to starve to death.

Turnips, turnips, acorns, these are the normal rations of ordinary people. Good years can be used to feed livestock, but bad years can be eaten by yourself. Even the weed-like tares will be pounded into rice as a staple food.

If a family runs out of food for three or four days, women and children will often starve to death first. The remaining adult men can only escape from famine. This is how most of the population in the Black Forest came from.

When Harmony Village can provide a relatively stable supply of food, the leaders of other human settlements cannot control the escape of their peasants. Everyone has to eat. Hungry red eyes, any shit beliefs are useless, I will kill you to see.

Standing at the top of the hills of ancient trees, I imagined that countless races in the forest were struggling to survive. The pressure of survival is so great.

Zhou Qingfeng opened the door of true knowledge to read history, and his mood became even worse after reading.

This alien civilization has been reincarnated for more than 30,000 years, and certainly more than one or two intelligent races have seen the problem. But none of them can solve this problem..., all disappeared in history.

What caused all this? !

If you want to uncover this secret, I am afraid that there will be a lot of experience.
