Under the threat of Tyride's aura, Lucy revealed many secrets to Lin Jiu and others in order to prove that she was not innocent. These secrets had nothing to do with the current situation, but were related to the past of Yimi Continent.
There has been a serious chronology in the past of the Yimi continent. If we divide it, it would include the present, and there is not much difference from the present after the first elemental cataclysm. The previous period is before the first elemental cataclysm, and then
Before that, it was the Age of Gods.
The Age of Gods begins with Caius, the creator god who appears in the world introduction. After Caius created the Yimi continent, he disappeared. In order to maintain the balance of the Yimi continent, gods appeared in this world.
Lin Jiu saw almost this information from the world introduction, but from Lucy, he learned more detailed content. Under the balance of the gods, Yimi Continent entered a period of rapid development.
As human beings continue to grow stronger, when food and clothing are no longer a matter of survival, life becomes the only issue that restrains human development. Although natural magic has given human beings infinite power, they cannot obtain eternal life.
Therefore, many magicians want to use human alchemy to fuse the essence of human beings with other lives in an attempt to extend life. However, the results are completely different from the alchemists' ideas. These people have been reshaped into various forms.
A new species of alien species, collectively known as demi-humans.
Demi-humans were regarded as freaks by humans, and were eventually exiled and forced to leave human society. During their exile, they had differences in their stance on humans. Due to the fusion of the life essences of different species, demi-humans have completely different personalities.
Some are as aggressive as carnivores, while others are as gentle and docile as herbivores.
The former hate human beings, they cannot forget the unfair treatment they have received in human society, and are eager to take revenge on mankind one day; the latter advocates peace. In the end, the war faction and the peace faction parted ways.
The main war faction came to the uninhabited wilderness area, which is now the Tarot Desert, and began a difficult survival, and formed the orc tribe. They reproduced from generation to generation, growing stronger day by day, and did not forget the ancestral precepts of revenge against humans, waiting for
Will one day launch a war against humanity
The Lord and the Paiya people migrated to the twilight jungle far away from the hustle and bustle, and settled here. Their gentle and kind nature made them quickly become allies with the animals and even elemental creatures in the twilight jungle, and together they formed the Cang Yue Council.
That is the current Cang Yue Alliance.
Mero was shocked when he learned from Lucy that the birth source of their Cangyue Alliance was actually humans, and that they were even the same kind as the Oro tribe.
Of course, the following news is even more exciting. Although alchemy failed, some magicians were not resigned to it. They turned their attention to the world after death. Since life cannot be extended, can they continue in another attitude after death?
To survive? Eventually, these mages created a forbidden spell that could bring the dead back to life: necromancy.
Undead creatures resurrected by necromancy spells are no longer bound by life and death. They have almost immortal life, and they also have a group will similar to that of a swarm. Most low-level undead have no personal will, they are like walking zombies.
Driven by this, only a small number of high-level undead have self-awareness and lead the entire group like queen bees.
The undead have dug huge and continuous tombs underground. They usually stay in the tombs and do not come into contact with other races. Whenever a war breaks out between other races, they will appear on the battlefield after the war like scavengers, collecting the battlefields.
They took the piles of corpses and the souls of those who died in battle and transformed them into similar species. Over thousands of years, they grew stronger and formed a force that could compete with other races.
This is so outrageous. In today's Yimi continent, in addition to the invading demonic creatures, there are four major forces: orcs, Cangyue Alliance, undead, and humans. The first three of them were actually born because of humans.
At the same time, Lin Jiu also knew why there was no trace of the alchemy mentioned in the world introduction. This thing was probably not used as a forbidden technique by humans at that time. It only exists in a few records and is difficult to access.
In the Age of Gods, after the disappearance of Caius, the creator god, there were two most powerful gods among the gods. One was Lina, the god of life, and the other was Loy, the god of death. Because Caius disappeared
For too long, many creatures in Yimi Continent later regarded Lina as the legendary creation god.
Yes, Roy, the God of Death, is also the current Lord of Demons. Roy was the first to come into contact with the Abyss of Annihilation, the place where abyssal energy invaded. The gods called it the Well of Annihilation.
This is not surprising. In many worlds invaded by the abyss, the ultimate boss is a strong person who originally existed in that world. Roy, the God of Death, was not only assimilated by the energy of the abyss, but also created a family of demonic creatures and became the Lord of Demons.
Lina gathered the power of the gods to eliminate most of the demons, and sealed the demon lord Roy and the remaining demons in the Abyss of Annihilation. After that, even the surviving gods disappeared and were said to be guarding the Abyss of Annihilation. So far,
The Age of Gods has come to an end.
Although the gods were victorious, they were unable to kill all the demons. They could only seal them under the Abyss of Annihilation, laying the hidden danger of future outbreaks.
As the war between gods and demons ended for thousands of years, the four tribes continued to develop and faced various internal and external troubles. However, they gradually forgot the terror of the demons, and the demons continued to accumulate strength and prepare for the war.
Breaking through the suppression of the Abyss of Annihilation.
The result has already happened, that is, the first elemental cataclysm. The devil is accumulating power, and what kind of power is it accumulating? Naturally, it is the secondary derived energy of the abyss. The huge power of dark demons is accumulated in the Annihilation Abyss, quietly eroding the power of this world.
Mountains, rivers, and elements made the elements unbalanced and triggered an elemental cataclysm.
In fact, the elemental cataclysm is the disaster that truly threatens the entire world. The war between gods and demons at the end of the Age of Gods was just a struggle between the forces of the two sides. Even though the entire continent was devastated, it did not endanger the essence.
As the secondary energy of the abyss continues to accumulate, the elemental power of this world begins to become unbalanced, which will trigger a disaster of world destruction. The two disasters are essentially different.
The follow-up was that the elements that Lin Jiu already knew appeared and established a new magic circle to restore the balance of the elements. This can be regarded as a self-rescue behavior of the elements themselves, selecting the agent that best suits them and maintaining the balance of the elements.
After learning this news, Lin Jiu learned nothing. At least he knew the origin of the ultimate boss on the devil's side and the meaning of the elementalist's existence.
The consequence of elemental imbalance is that the world will continue to be polluted by the secondary energy of the abyss, and elementalists can use the power of natural elements to purify these pollutions. Therefore, when there are elementalists in Yimi Continent, they can barely maintain the balance of elements and suppress the elements.
Catastrophe.
Then Lin Jiu also deduced a piece of information from this, that is, in the war decades ago, there must be hidden elementalists secretly purifying energy erosion. Otherwise, even if the demonic creatures were defeated openly, it would be impossible to suppress the elements.
