Chapter 3224: Harvest the future and repair the vision
The next day, when the sun was rising, the temporary camp on the Elam side had begun to become busy, and humans, elves, and a smaller number of dwarves could be seen walking around.
Xia Duo turned around and realized that the Avatar couldn't help but sigh when they saw this scene. It turns out that the elves are not really impatient, but that the matter does not touch their own interests. Once it does, they may behave more impatiently than humans.
The biggest thing that elves despise about humans is that they think humans do everything in a hurry, and humans always like to ask questions, while elves are good at understanding things on their own through long-term observation and listening.
But in Shado's opinion, these are more of a true portrayal of the atmosphere of magical exchanges between Netheril and the elven world in the past. At that time, Netheril was determined to forge ahead and did not avoid communication. On the contrary, the elven world was internally rigid, even if it was a master.
Student teaching also uses the method of long-term inspection to allow students to realize themselves, which is actually the most conservative manifestation.
As for the leisure at other times, it is just that the ancestors have developed and accumulated a period of time for these descendants of the elves.
If these elves and humans were allowed to develop from scratch at the same time, Xia Duocai didn't believe that the elves could still be so leisurely!
From the perspective of individual intelligence, elves are not smarter than humans. The so-called wisdom is more of the experience accumulated naturally from their extremely long lifespan. If humans can live that long, they will not lose to elves.
In fact, due to their long lifespan, elves don't even care about the mental growth of the next generation, but rather let them grow on their own. So generally speaking, elves have to be at least 25 years old to reach the 16-year-old mind of a human child.
It's not that they can't advance in advance, but the environment makes them have no motivation to advance in advance. For evidence, you can refer to their underground relatives Drow, who basically start giving birth to the next generation at the age of 25, and will give birth every 25 years until they die.
It is also because of this extremely extreme strategy in the eyes of surface elves that the drow can occupy a dominant position as outsiders in the harsh underdark.
If the surface elves also gave birth once every 25 years starting from the age of 25, then there might be no other intelligent races on the main plane at all.
But what is the actual situation?
The vast majority of elves give birth for the first time after they are 100 years old, and many of them only give birth once in a lifetime. If a big family has property to inherit, they may have a few more children, but the middle and lower classes do not have that need. Many elves even
Unmarried and childless throughout life.
This situation is somewhat similar to the continued decline in fertility rates in developed countries on Earth. If this continues, how can the elf world not decline?
The drow are similar to the underdeveloped human race in the Black Continent, maintaining the existence of the race with a super high fertility rate, because if the fertility rate was not maintained at such a high rate, the harsh environment, wars, and killings in the Dark Region would have long ago destroyed the drow.
Extinct.
However, after the establishment of the Northland Alliance, the exchanges between the countries in the Northland became more and more frequent, and accordingly, there was more and more healthy competition. This also made the elves begin to change their past leisurely attitude and start to face their own development.
If we can maintain this state, it will not take a thousand years, but maybe a few hundred years to reach the level before the Crown War. If we speed up a little bit, it is not impossible to surpass our distant ancestors.
Of course, during this process, human beings are also developing. According to Xia Duo's expectations, as long as he is given a hundred years, any crisis in the main plane can be easily resolved. It is not impossible to even explore alien planes and even connect to foreign lands.
Unfortunately, time is still too tight.
Even if he wants to speed up, it will be difficult to change the entire world. Judging from the fastest solution he has personally practiced, it is to find a projection plane that lasts for a long time and develop a magical civilization in it.
Then he jumped a long time span by leaving and re-entering, and went directly to the future of the projection plane. Just like Sha Duo did in the Red Heart Alliance before, he first established the Red Heart Alliance, arranged a rough development plan, and then jumped
Time has gone to the future.
??????????.??????
In this way, a large number of mature advanced technologies of this system can be obtained from the "future", such as the mystery lock technology brought back by Xia Duo, the elemental composition of fine gold, customized arcane fire, Lingsi network improvement, arcane string improvement, half
Plane transformation, etc.
There are so many, they can be called the essence of an entire civilization.
but--
This is not a conventional development option.
The reason is very simple. The first is the uncertainty of the projection plane itself. Who can guarantee that a projection plane that lasts long enough can be obtained stably?
Secondly, there is the uncertainty of the development of civilization. In the Red Heart Alliance, Xia Duo was lucky. In addition, due to the special situation, the demons were not allowed to be included in normal society and could only develop independently. Therefore, the projection plane basically developed according to the future he planned.
, but this may not be the case in other cases.
As long as it can communicate with other forces, it will inevitably be affected, and the changes in the ruling class itself (degeneration or change of path) are all uncertain factors.
Even Xia Duo himself cannot guarantee that the situation of the Red Heart Alliance will happen again next time.
In addition, the future of the projected plane will not exceed the current timeline of the main plane. This is determined by the nature of the plane. Simply put, it is when the projected plane develops to be flush with the timeline of the main plane.
It will inevitably return to ruins.
The upper limit of development is set from the beginning.
Finally, there was a non-external reason. Xia Duo couldn't bear to watch the civilization he had supported with his own hands fall to ruins again and again. He felt that if he saw this situation too much, he might become cold-blooded and indifferent to everything.
Therefore, unless it is particularly necessary, he will probably not repeat the old affair of the Red Heart Alliance.
However, Xia Duo doesn't have to worry about others using this method to overtake him in a corner. In fact, it's not like other people haven't used this method. The only one he knows about is Vader.
The method used by the other party is to allow multiple experimenters to enter the same projection plane at intervals. The actual manifestation in the projection plane is that these people will appear in different eras.
In this way, a single experimenter does not have to stay there for too long and lose too much lifespan. All they need to do is to find the information left by the experimenters before their own era, and leave information for people in the later era.
.
During this process, you should try to write down valuable information as much as possible, and then after weighing the loss of lifespan, you can consider leaving the projection plane, or simply staying. The latter is usually when your lifespan is about to end, and you need to stay in the projection plane for another life.
This kind of exploration process is more complicated than that of Xia. The advantage is that there are no requirements for the projection plane. You can explore any projection plane.
But the shortcomings are also obvious. It consumes too much experimenters! Moreover, the efficiency of collecting data and bringing back information is also very low, and relevant personnel need to write it down before bringing it back.
Unlike Xia Duo, you can directly use the main plane to bring the real carrier to the past, record it in the projection plane, and then bring it back. It can be said that as long as Xia Duo can access as much information, it is possible to process as much information as possible, and the efficiency is far higher than that in the dimension.
Virtuous people are high.
Portable space plays a huge role in this.
Even if you encounter some special items, you can directly manifest them through the portable space and bring them back to the main plane. However, Vader's exploration method can only harvest information, not physical objects.
At the same time, Vader's method is also doomed. The people he sends out will basically not have too high-level spellcasters, so as to prevent the experimenters from encountering surprises in the projection plane and threatening himself.
When low-level mages enter the projection plane, at most they can only play a role in guiding the development of civilization with some insights. They cannot play a decisive role like Sha Duo in the projection plane of the Red Heart Alliance. Therefore, low-cost mages can guide the development of a powerful civilization.
The probability is very low.
This method is not the right way. Although Xia Duo does not dislike him at all, he is not too worried about others using this method to surpass him.
