The blood-colored lake, coupled with the hints in Elros's words, is obviously not an ordinary red tide phenomenon.
"What's going on?" Liang looked back.
Ellos said: "Whenever the stormy month comes and the lake water rises, the depths of Lake Myrtle will gradually turn into blood red. The local residents think this is a natural phenomenon, but it is not."
"Based on the investigation, we confirmed that there is an ancient ruin at the bottom of Lake Meute, which can be traced back to the 'Era of the Ancient Gods' before the establishment of the ancient empire."
"Era of the Ancient Gods"...Leon has seen this word before.
The history of this world can be roughly divided into four periods. The earliest one is the "Era of the Ancient Gods". Legend has it that humans at this time did not occupy a dominant position on the continent, but were enslaved by various alien races, such as vampires and snakes whose lower body was
The body, the snake man with scales on the body, such as the winged man with wings on his back, who looks like an "angel" in a certain religion on earth, such as the tall giant with a body covered with rock or metal... These alien races are the "ancient gods"
The forces that divided the world during the "Era", these alien races established their own royal courts and ruled different regions. The masters of those royal courts held terrifying power and were equal to the gods. Later generations would call the masters of those royal courts "ancient times".
god".
As for the Secret Witches, this group of human wizards, although with the help of magic and the existence of the "Secret Witch Monarchs", they are not afraid of any ancient god king's court, but they have no intention of competing or liberating their compatriots. They only stay in their own territory.
He devoted himself to studying magic, and even implemented a cold-blooded rule over the humans in his territory that was no less than that of aliens.
I don’t know how long the alien rule lasted until the end of the "Era of the Ancient Gods" when a young human slave was selected by the "Supreme Will" and given the power of "Law". This young boy used the "Law" to liberate other human slaves.
, strengthened the power of mankind itself, and set off a wave of resistance to the rule of the royal court. In the later period of this war, which was called the "Great Uprising", even the secret wizards had to recognize the power of the rebel army, cooperate with the rebel army, and fight together.
The Court of the Ancient God.
When the Ancient God Royal Court was either completely destroyed or exiled to a desolate land, humans established a firm foothold on this land. The young man was also revered as the "Holy King", established an ancient co-governing empire, and became
The first Gao Emperor ushered in the ancient imperial era, the "Imperial Era" or the "Old Century".
After the "Holy King" ruled the empire for a full hundred years, he collapsed and passed away - in the classics of the Church of Order, the death of the "Holy King" was considered to be inspired by the "Supreme Will", ascended to heaven and became the "Supreme Will"
"The Vice-King of the Kingdom of Heaven also has the title of "White Crown King" in the Church of Order - and then the emperor's position will be controlled by his descendants, the Kalosser royal family. The Kalosser royal family has continued for the past few years.
After thousands of years of rule, until the last night of the imperial calendar year 999, the "Sabbath Night Incident" suddenly occurred. The losers of the previous era, the Lords of the Royal Court, put aside their past grudges on this day and joined forces to raid King's Landing, the capital of the ancient empire.
, wiping out all the buildings and creatures in the city. Then, the royal court's coalition forces gathered from the exiled areas, broke through the empire's defenses, and dragged the land into war, and history also entered the "Dark Age."
, also known as "Middle Ages".
The Corother royal family was destroyed and the empire was leaderless. The great nobles gathered their forces and established their own kingdoms to resist the invasion of aliens. The secret witches also launched an attack at this time. The "Witch King" led the witches to march into King's Landing, and in the destroyed city
A new capital was built on the original site, and the Supreme King Tower, which is still regarded as a symbol of royal power, was built.
The alien coalition soon fell apart due to internal conflicts. The human kingdoms stopped the alien offensive, but they were unable to unite as one and reorganize into a united empire as before, and they were even less able to take back King's Landing from the Secret Witch.
City. It wasn't until the "Revivor" You Hong I turned out, led the kingdom's coalition forces to defeat the Secret Witch Alliance, killed the "Witch King", and was finally crowned emperor under the election of the Emperor-Electing Conference. The United Empire was established and the world entered the third century.
Four Era, "United Era", or "New Century".
The current calendar is calculated from the fall of the ancient empire, which is 1098 AD, and the ancient empire is also 999 years old. The ruins at the bottom of Lake Meute have a history of at least two thousand years, which can be said to be quite long.
Ellos continued: "After our research, the ruins are an ancient city, belonging to the Feast Royal Court in the 'Era of the Ancient Gods'. In other words, it is a city of vampires."
The ancient city of vampires, half-vampires, bloody lakes...Leon understood clearly: "Anna's immortality and the red color of Lake Meute are all related to that ancient city?"
"Yes." Ellos nodded, "However, we have tried to send an expedition team to go deep into the lake bottom to explore this lost ancient city, but they have failed several times in a row. Not to mention salvaging the relics of the ancient city, even the ancient city itself, they
None of them successfully entered."
"After visiting several experts, including several high-level wizards, we learned that the ancient city is under a rather large seal."
