"In fact, there are not only one emperor and four kings in this world, but only one emperor and four kings in the camp of humans and elves."

The witch's smile became bitter, but the information he spoke destroyed Gregory's worldview.

In the world that Gregory originally knew, the One Emperor and Four Kings were the most powerful people and the pillars of the entire world. But now the witch told him that besides the One Emperor and Four Kings, there are other kings?

"Fire is not only a tool to dispel gray mist, but also the most original power of this world. It contains the truth of this world and the key to mastering the entire world. Some people have come into contact with fire and strengthened their belief in protecting this world, while others have developed ambitions and attempts to take fire for themselves."

The witch sighed lightly, as if she was sighing at the strong men who went astray, or sighing at the ill-fated fate of this world.

Just as Gregory was digesting this information, the witch threw out an even more shocking news: "In fact, the fire has been extinguished once."

...

"What? The fire has been extinguished?"

In the tower of Blue City, Sawyer's face was full of surprise. As far as he knew, fire was the foundation of the existence of the ring city. If the fire had been extinguished, then the ring city should be destroyed.

"The fire has indeed gone out."

Royner nodded and sighed again: "But luckily, after the fire was extinguished, there were still embers left, which gave us a chance to remedy."

"About the secrets of that year, only we who were kings were qualified to understand, but now the world is about to collapse, so it's okay to tell you. The new gray fog calendar we use now actually starts with the succession of the new emperor, and before the new emperor succeeded to the throne, the gray fog calendar was always used.

At the beginning, the City of Hope was just established, and the King of Golden Flame, located in the center of the Great Six, drafted a new year name and calendar. When the seven rings of cities were finally established and the whole world stabilized, after discussion, the seven of us announced that the Gray Mist Calendar was officially launched on the day of sending the old days, and that year was the first year of Gray Mist."

Speaking of this, Royna paused his voice, as if he was remembering the time of that year. After waiting for a few minutes, he continued to speak.

The seven kings at that time were all people in the world. Everyone tried their best to expand the scale of the ring and sent exploration teams to accept more survivors. In the first hundred years, with the efforts of the seven kings, the seven rings were all moving towards a better side - the sheltered area was getting bigger and bigger, the number of residents in the ring was more and more, and after ensuring self-sufficiency, various properties began to gain surplus.

It seems that as long as this momentum is maintained, the world will eventually return to its original state.

Even though most people have forgotten what the world was like in the past, even if many powerful people who were promoted later were unwilling to inject their own power into the fire.

But the seven kings did not go. They kept calling and promoting, leading the strong men at that time to inject energy into the fire, making the areas that could be protected by fire and towers larger and larger.

However, the good times did not last long. In the 131st year of the Gray Mist Calendar, a strong man born in the Gray Mist Calendar openly refused to provide energy to fire and questioned the seven kings. He believed that fire could automatically strengthen without the injection of external energy, and all the injected energy was stolen by the seven kings to strengthen their own strength.

"If I really did this, how could I not improve my strength in hundreds of years?"

Royna's voice was a bit sad. The questioner at the time came from Sapphire Ring City, and the first person to be questioned was her, the King of Sapphire, Royna.

However, this kind of remarks did not get many recognitions. After all, there were many old-fashioned strong men at that time, who had survived from the early days of the Gray Mist Age. They all understood the painstaking efforts of the seven kings and were even dedicating their strength to that goal.

So, the voices of opposition quickly disappeared, and the seven rings of cities returned to their original calm again, but a seed of distrust had been planted.

Due to the changes in the world, the increase in life span of powerful strength has become weaker and weaker. Even the long-lived elves have become almost the same as that of humans. In the 172 years of the Gray Mist, the first strong man from the old era has reached the end of his life and left the world forever.

The death of the powerful men in the old era was as if a switch was turned on. The strong men from the old era died one after another. Finally, nearly a hundred years later, the strong men from the old era were only the last twelve, and they were called the Seven Ancient Kings and the Five New Kings.

At this time, the twelve kings have also seen it, and death is inevitable. Instead of indulging in the sorrow of the passing of old people, it is better to strode forward and end this gray era.

At least, the power of the living camp has been much stronger than before.

But in 296, the voices of doubt appeared again, as if they had learned from the lessons of the "senius". This time, the doubters changed the accusation, and they believed that the twelve kings were using the power of others to extend their lives!

"ignorance."

Soya couldn't help but scold him. The reason why the king's life span was because they once again condensed the realm and cut off their dependence on the world. The life span naturally returned to normal. Just like the mythical powerhouses in the present world, even humans can have hundreds or thousands of years of life span.

Royna and other ancient kings and new kings naturally explained to other strong people, but others did not believe this explanation, but instead interrupted the function of fire. Therefore, the expansion of the ring city stopped for the first time. Seeing that it was impossible to persuade everyone to change their minds, the Twelve Kings simply stopped the function of fire and practiced for the first time for themselves.

After all, there is no need to say anything like this. Just wait for a while and let everyone understand that the shelter will stop expanding after the energy supply is stopped, and others will naturally understand.

As expected, when others saw that the shelter stopped expanding, they suddenly panicked, but the doubters made new remarks, which they believed were the twelve kings absorbing the power of fire, which led to the shelter stopped expanding.

However, the ancient kings and the new kings had long expected this. After stopping the energy supply, they left the tower and practiced with other powerful people. As a result, this remark was self-defeating. Tens of thousands of doubters were arrested, and the core members were even executed in public.
