--Remember!
"Do you think this is a safari park?" Yue Yao rolled her eyes at him. --/
"Your example is inappropriate. It should be said that you go to the cinema. Where can you see this scene in a zoo?" Tianyi said with a smile.
The Moon Demon sneered: "I'm right. We go to the cinema for a couple's date, and we take our godson shopping... to the zoo."
"Hmm... This is good." Tianyi seemed to appreciate the impromptu sarcasm, and did not retort, but said: "Okay, let's go directly to the Third Kingdom. Anyway, the Second Kingdom is causing a lot of trouble. It was terminated by God in about a hundred years.”
The scenery in front of them began to change again, and this time they came to a real city-state.
In the Moon Demon's imagination, the creatures in the Third Kingdom should be similar to humans, living in stone buildings and wearing clothing made of animal skins. But what she saw now was a port city built on the sea, a metropolis made of unknown metal. The residents here don't look like humans at all, but look like penguins.
"Penguins... ever ruled the earth?" Yue Yao looked at Tianyi and read word by word.
Tianyi replied: "Following the destruction of the Second Kingdom, the Third Kingdom was placed on the earth by God. This was a diversified period, when various highly intelligent beings were put into various parts of the world and established their own city-states. If you look carefully at these guys, they look like penguins, but not exactly. Their heads are larger and their necks are very close to humans, which can provide more blood oxygen to the brain; they also have dexterous fingers. Four in each hand instead of having flippers.”
"So, God used penguins as a template to create the Third Kingdom?" Yue Yao's tone remained unchanged.
Tian Daodao: "There are also koalas, kangaroos, pandas, etc... The civilization of each place is different."
"And you just said this wasn't a zoo?"
Tianyi was stunned for a moment: "Hmm... Haha... Okay, let's skip over and see the Fourth Kingdom."
"Wait a minute." Moon Demon said, "How did this lovely Third Kingdom get destroyed?"
"Good question." Tianyi replied: "The third kingdom, very tragically, was destroyed by the very few surviving creatures in the second kingdom."
"What?" Moon Demon was greatly puzzled: "Could it be that God made mistakes when he killed those monsters?"
"Look, I made it a long time ago. Don't ask similar questions. Who knows what God thinks? Maybe he did it on purpose and wanted to test whether the civilized power of the Third Kingdom can withstand those guys. The impact." Tianyi shrugged and said, "After all, God directly endowed those 'cute' creatures in your mouth with extremely high levels of technological civilization."
"Hmph... What is the fourth kingdom? The revival of the second kingdom?" Moon Demon asked.
"The images of some creatures in the Second Kingdom were indeed recorded. They became objects of worship or reverence for later generations. For example, the two we just saw became the Sphinx and the god Anubis. Tianyi replied: "But the Second Kingdom did not revive, in fact. The Third Kingdom's civilization successfully resisted and eliminated many monsters left over from the mythical era, but the battle ended with the destruction of the Third Kingdom." But the creatures in the second kingdom also suffered a tragic defeat, and their numbers were even smaller than before.
After two catastrophes, the survivors of the mythical age became cunning and no longer easily killed each other with similar people of comparable strength. Instead, he chose to point his finger at the weaker creatures on the earth. "
As Tianyi narrated, the two of them were directly above a canyon. They could vaguely see it in the air. Deep in the dark canyon, a big black snake lay like a giant dragon.
"Around 10,000 BC, I came to the world." Tianyi said.
The moon demon laughed, and this laughter showed that she didn't quite believe what she heard: "What did you say?"
"So far, God seems to be tired of all kinds of interference on this planet. He decided to create two agents to help him deal with this matter. I am one of them, the narrator." Tianyi's tone was very normal, It's not like he's joking or lying.
Moon Demon's expression also began to change: "Are you over 12,000 years old?"
"Almost, I haven't counted." Tianyi replied: "The other guy is called the Obliterator. He couldn't survive me for so long. After the destruction of the Fourth Kingdom, he was disheartened. He killed himself. ”
Moon Demon said: "What is the fourth kingdom?"
"The Dark Water Clan." Tianyi replied.
Moon Demon suddenly realized that she had finally solved a mystery that had troubled her for a long time—whether Dark Water was an alien.
"But we have to go back a little bit." Tian Yiyi said: "Obviously. After the failed attempts of the three kingdoms, a certain race that was not optimistic came into the sight of God. That is the reason why this planet is in the world. In the law of natural selection, a kind of intelligent life derived by itself - Homo sapiens.
In the developed brains of Homo sapiens, a dangerous thing was born. To put it simply and straightforwardly... evil.
You just said that the creatures in the First Kingdom are not considered advanced intelligent life. This view comes from your self-awareness. Your understanding of the world as an individual led you to this conclusion. This self-awareness , is the difference between you and those creatures.
However, don’t you think that this idea of yours is based on your own inherent prejudice and arrogance? "
"You want to tell me... that the criterion for judging higher beings is sin?" Moon Demon sneered.
"Dolphins, pigs, dogs, and chimpanzees are all smart." Tianyi replied: "But they will commit suicide in public because they have no concept of shame. Without this concept, they will not understand what it means to Public place." He smiled and said: "Then will you be with me in public place..."
"I know what you mean, you don't have to say it in full." Yue Yao interrupted.
Tianyi continued: "Only when people have good and evil in their hearts can they know honor and disgrace, right and wrong, even the situation of the blood owl is no exception. It is precisely because people can realize the existence of 'sin' that they are advanced .
Various negative emotions may be extended into behaviors, such as anger, jealousy, lust, greed, etc., which can make people have countless criminal desires, but not all of them may be put into action, because people are aware of those Behaviors that harm others when they satisfy oneself are 'crimes', and there is a price to pay for committing crimes. "
Tianyi pointed to the canyon below and saw two people coming up the canyon, a giant about three meters tall and a human of ordinary size. "Did you see that handsome guy with long hair wearing animal skin?"
"Are you going to die if you want to be embarrassed?" Although the moon demon said this, he did smile. The savage with disheveled hair and animal skins below. Just like Tianyi.
"The Obliterator and I spent more than a thousand years hunting down the remaining creatures of the Second Kingdom on the earth. Before, we all worked separately and took care of our own business, but this black snake was the most powerful on the planet at that time. The most deadly creature, so he and I had to cooperate." Tianyi said: "Eight black snakes. They almost wiped out all the civilizations they encountered, including some that were older than the four ancient civilizations. Human civilization, unfortunately, nothing is left of those civilizations. I asked the Darkwater tribesmen around the world to change their city-states into closed fortresses and sink underground to avoid this kind of creature. They survived.
So, after these creatures left over from the mythical age were completely eliminated, the rule of the Fourth Kingdom began. "
Moon Demon thought for a while and asked: "Then the Dark Water Clan is considered the remnant of the Third Kingdom?"
"No, they were created at the same time as me, and appeared after the complete destruction of the Third Kingdom." Tiandao said: "The situation at that time was... the rise of the human kingdom was probably the outcome that God least wanted to see. But they seem to have the greatest hope. Human beings are excellent in reproduction, adaptability, and expansion capabilities. These three characteristics are not inferior to other animals at all. Even the monsters in the Second Kingdom cannot wipe out these creatures. Although humans were not the rulers of the earth at that time, they still persisted tenaciously.
In this situation, I was created as a human being, and God chose the yellow race. Maybe he felt that people with this skin color have evolved the most thoroughly. He has a strong ability to adapt to the environment, his cheekbones and brow bones are flattened, his hair has faded relatively cleanly, and his skin tone, hair color and pupils are uniform. It basically feels like the final official version of Homo sapiens 1.26.
Since I was made into a human form, I naturally do not have the powerful abilities of an obliterator. That guy feels like a Super Saiyan Blood Owl to me, his fighting power is too brutal. He was created to destroy everything that needs to be destroyed, just imagine..."
"No need to imagine. I saw it..." The moon demon was watching the obliterator in the canyon below tearing apart the black snake with his bare hands.
The black snake could actually fly and spit out waves of black corrosive poison. The flesh and blood spit out from its mouth turned into something like a corpse soldier to fight for it. But these powers are like child's play in front of the obliterator.
Tianyi said: "Well... that's probably it. Let's talk about it back to me. I have different missions from him. I am the 'Telegrapher'. I need an appearance that is more acceptable. If I look like the Obliterator, When I walked into a human village and tried to contact them, I'm afraid they were either frightened and ran away en masse, or they offered food and knelt down to accept death. Considering all the variables in the future, I was eventually shaped into what you see today look like."
"Why not make you look like the Dark Water Tribe?" Moon Demon asked.
"It's not necessary. Appearance is not important to the Dark Water Tribe, and they will not be intimidated by anyone." Tianyi replied: "But for humans, it is natural to judge people by their appearance, so we have to accommodate them."
At this time, the scene in front of the two people flew by again, and in a moment they came to the ruins of the Dark Water Tribe. It was surrounded by a huge room, with a statue of a human head in the middle. People from the Dark Water Tribe were standing neatly around the statue. They lined up as accurately as dominoes, and their eyes were all glowing. It seemed that they were performing some kind of ceremony. .
The Dark Water Tribe is very similar to humans. Their body shape is the same as that of adult humans, but their height is only the size of a child, like a pocket version of humans. This was different from Yue Yao's imagination, because she had only seen Dark Water, so she preconceived the idea that all members of her tribe looked like this. As a result, she discovered that the dark water civilization in the Fourth Kingdom turned out to be like this. Another discovery she made was that the facial contours of each Dark Water Tribe person were actually slightly different, just like humans with different looks, and they were completely distinguishable.
"I have said that God created me and the Obliterator, basically to prepare to be a hands-off shopkeeper." Tianyi said: "The Dark Water Tribe created at the same time is close to the most perfect. They have no human sins and possess Similar to the vitality of creatures in the First Kingdom, there is also a more advanced and complete technological system and spiritual guidance than the Third Kingdom - the eternal core. Theoretically, the Fourth Kingdom will be the most suitable ruler of this planet, and it is impossible to perish.
Besides, there is also the supervision of me as the narrator. When necessary, I can act as a diplomat with humans or go undercover.
Of course, when the worst situation happens. I will also be used, in that case... I am the last resort. "
Yue Yao said: "Oh, our current world is the worst, worst, worst situation?" She imitated Tianyi's tone. He said four words in a row.
Tianyi sighed: "Thousands of years have passed, and the Darkwater Tribe has followed truth and correct thinking, which finally led them into a logical cycle. The conclusion is that 'progress' is necessary. The way to optimize is to devour the obliterators."
When they came to this conclusion, I knew that the Fourth Kingdom was over. No matter whether they could digest the Obliterators or not, it was a destined ending. This planet still belonged to humans in the end. "
Moon Demon said: "Even if their devouring is successful, they will expand into the universe for the next step of 'progress', right?"
"Yes. So they are also a failed kingdom. The Eternal Core represents that kind of civilization. Truth means always following the right things. Human beings are a race that will violate the truth. They can always find excuses to compromise, but the Darkwater people I don't have that strength." Tian Daodao said: "In the end, the Dark Water Tribe failed to swallow the Obliterator, and the Dark Water Tribe people from all over the world gathered together. They became one and wanted to complete the swallowing, but were backlashed by the Obliterator's energy. They turned into Nothing. Only the guy in our reverse cross is still alive, like the last drop of juice in a glass that will never be drained. He survived the last bit."
"You didn't stop them then?" Moon Demon frowned slightly, looking very puzzled: "Also, is the Obliterator willing to be swallowed by them?"
"I can't stop them. 'Persuasion' is useless to the Darkwater people. 'Order' is useful, but only temporarily. The root of their race means that they will go down the same path repeatedly. In other words, I can order them Don't devour the obliterators, but they will make this decision again after I give the order. How to say... It's like an open faucet. If you block it with your hand, you can temporarily prevent the water from flowing out. But unless you turn it Tighten it or cut off the water source, otherwise the water will still flow as soon as you loosen your hand.
As for the Obliterator, he is the same as me. He understands this, so he will not refuse. But the result was an unexpected and tragic ending, and the Fourth Kingdom was destroyed. The Obliterator has long felt that his existence has lost its meaning. A world without powerful creatures to obliterate is already very bleak. Something like this happened to the Dark Water Tribe again, so the Obliterator gave up his vast power. Killed himself. "
"Then what exactly are your responsibilities?" Moon Demon asked.
"The consultant has talked about this issue with me. When we first talked on the phone, I hinted to him that my real job is actually to control the destiny of mankind." Tianyi replied: "When the fourth kingdom is destroyed At that moment, my mission changed. The narrator is to provide management and services for the kingdom that rules the earth. Now that humans have become the new rulers, I am the narrator of mankind."
"This is strange. I haven't heard of your name in history, let alone any human narrator." Moon Demon said in a relaxed tone.
"From just now to now, I have said so much, you think I am talking nonsense to you while playing the holographic image, right?" Of course Tianyi knew what Yue Yao was thinking.
"Yeah." Moon Demon shrugged and nodded.
No one would believe these unbelievable things, not to mention that these stories were told from the mouth of heaven, so the credibility would be even more compromised.
Tianyi took a deep breath and didn't seem to care very much. He curled his lips and said, "Okay... Anyway, I'll just say it." He thought for a few seconds: "I didn't think of the name Tianyi until the third century AD. I had always thought about it before. Self-proclaimed narrator. As for history... When every new human dynasty is born, the first thing it does is to change the period of history related to itself. Over and over again, often only insignificant things are truly recorded and passed down. , and every time dynasties change, countless important truths will always be covered up.
Take the chaotic world in front of us as an example. If the empire falls apart and a new dynasty arrives, for example... the Yanwu Alliance finally becomes the new political power. So what will be their image in the history they write, and how will the actions and thoughts of other resistance groups be written? And during that period of history, was it really necessary for an organization like the Inverse Cross, or the name Tianyi, to appear? They don’t know the information about our organization at all, do they? How should I write it? Even if someone within our organization wants to leave the story of the reverse cross to future generations, hundreds of years later, it will become an unofficial legend with only a few sentences. At most, it would have been fabricated by some frustrated and sullen writer, added fuel and jealousy, gathered together 108 members, and written it into a novel. The whole text is also filled with the author's resentment for being unappreciated and his dissatisfaction and insinuations towards the society at that time. . "
The Moon Demon smiled and said, "Okay... just pretend that I didn't ask, and you go on, is the fifth kingdom coming next?" (To be continued...) - Remember it!
