[We don’t have much time left in our civilization? What does this mean?]

Owen frowned, very puzzled.

[It means literally that your civilization has entered the countdown to its demise. Whether it is humans or sub-people races, they will eventually be slaughtered by monsters. After the old civilization is destroyed, monsters will also be destroyed collectively, and the entire planet will enter the stage of gestation of the new civilization.]

Winster downplays the final outcome of the civilization Irving is in.

【You, are you sure you are not kidding?】

Civilization is over? Irving really hopes that Winster is joking, but listening to his tone seems to be serious.

[The current situation is indeed a bit bad, but the military factory is fully producing all kinds of military supplies. We have made sufficient preparations. Although it may pay a heavy price, it may not necessarily fail.]

[It's useless. Even if you win this time, a stronger monster will appear immediately.]

In response, Winster poured a basin of cold water at Irving without mercy.

[Even if you can defeat monsters every time, when the last moment of destruction, powerful natural disasters will erupt in various places, allowing you to destruction step by step in despair.]

After a pause, Winster slowly revealed the truth behind the great crisis facing Irving.

[In fact, your real enemies are not those monsters of unknown origin, but the so-called gods who determine the fate of your civilization.]

【God?】

After hearing what Winster said, Owen couldn't make a mistake for a moment. This big crisis is related to gods? What's going on?

[When I wait, I am a little confused. Can you explain to me from beginning to end why our civilization must perish? Why do gods do it?]

[Yes. First of all, we must be clear--the so-called gods really exist.]

Winster told Irving that the so-called gods can be regarded as the administrators of a certain universe, and all civilizations in that universe are under its management.

Then, we must understand a basic fact that the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged.

This will cause a problem, that is, as time goes by, the universe will nurture more and more civilizations on its own, and survival is the first need of civilization. Civilization will continue to grow and expand. However, the total amount of matter in the universe is only so much, and it cannot support the increasing number of civilizations' survival needs.

But the universe has been nurturing new civilizations. The first-born civilization has the advantage of first-mover advantage and can take advantage of a large amount of resources through development. This is unfair to the later-brow civilizations.

The responsibility of the gods is to control the number of civilizations in the universe and keep them within a reasonable quantity range.

God is a ruthless existence, which stipulates the time for existence of all civilizations. As long as the deadline reaches, no matter how the civilization resists, it will eventually face destruction.

This is also the reason why various monsters of unknown origin suddenly appear on Irving. Their civilization is at the countdown to its demise.

Let a civilization perish step by step in resistance and struggle, it is the last decency given to this civilization by the gods.

At the same time, the gods are also very fair. Whether it is a strong or a weak civilization, they can develop with peace of mind within the prescribed time, without worrying about sudden destruction.

This is also why the saint Rayev suddenly appeared with faith magic when the vampire army ravaged various countries more than 600 years ago and led everyone to win the first holy war.

Now that faith magic has failed, it can be seen as the proof that Irving's civilization is approaching and that the gods have abandoned them.

Of course, all civilizations must want to take their destiny into their own hands. Once they find that their destiny is not in their own hands, they will inevitably rise up and resist the gods.

In order to avoid this, the gods created a mysterious material energy that it can control at will - magic.

Magic is the right and right hand of the gods. In addition to destroying civilizations, it can also be used to suppress the technological development of civilizations. In this way, it is difficult for civilization to pose a threat to gods.

Why do you say so?

First of all, we have to admit that magic is a very convenient existence.

In the early stages of civilization development, people with magic will definitely stand out and become social elites.

There is no doubt about this. Look at the society in Irving, which of the nobles in the ruling class has no magic power?

Studying magic and magic and developing magic stone technology can strengthen the power of the elite class and stabilize their status. The development of science and technology benefits the masses, and thus bring the distance between the people and the elite.

As social elites, they definitely do not allow civilians to climb onto their own heads. They will definitely choose to vigorously develop magic stone technology, study magic and magic, suppress or even prohibit scientific and technological research, resulting in the scientific and technological development of the entire society lag behind.

The higher the development level of a magic civilization, the more controlled it is by the gods. After all, magic power is the right and left hand of the gods, and it can easily turn the magic achievements that the civilization is proud of into virtual existence in an instant.

After hearing Winster said so much, Irving finally figured out the reason, and at the same time fell into deep despair. Since the gods were about to destroy the civilization they were in, they were just struggling to death no matter what they did.

[Irving, now your civilization is about to usher in the final destruction. Do you want to resist such a fate?] Winster suddenly asked.

[Resist? Even if there is only a slight chance of success, we will resist! I cannot accept that our civilization has only the path of destruction. If possible, we are willing to use our own hands to open up a new path.] Irving gave the answer very unwillingly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed something that there was a lot of magic in the universe over Winster, which showed that there were also gods there.

Winster contacted Irving before closing the laboratory and mentioned the last warning left by the ancient civilization before its demise - God awakening, which also proved this.

And now, Winster told Irving that the universe over them had been restored to its original state.

In other words, the sudden appearance of magic has disappeared. Does this mean that the gods over there have been eliminated?

Thinking of this, Irving couldn't wait to ask the other person in his mind.

[Winster, I remember that there was no magic on your side. Based on the information you told me before, I can infer that it was the gods who woke up, which led to a large amount of magic on their backs. But why did the gods on your side sleep before? Why did they suddenly wake up? Now, you said that the universe has returned to its original state. Do you have a way to defeat the gods?]

【Yes, gods can be defeated.】

Winster answered the last question first.

[As for why the gods on our side were sleeping before? Why did they suddenly wake up? This matter is a long story, do you want to hear it?]
