Nine hundred and seventieth chapters frozen history
As Katrina said: The ocean is so vast that it can swallow everything.
Seventy percent of this planet is ruled by the ocean. The Sirens are the most low-key, friendly, and uncontested race on this planet, but they are the rulers of the most vast country on this planet.
They have survived in this deep sea for ten thousand years. The world on land has gone through great changes, and countless dynasties and even dynasties of "gods" have experienced ups and downs in these ten thousand years. The once glorious civilization creations have been lost in the sinking, and among them
Countless things fell into the deep sea by various chances and coincidences, and eventually became the collections of the sirens.
These sirens, who are low-key but curious by nature, are definitely the most undisputed collectors on the planet. They will collect almost all sunken objects found in the sea as treasures. This is probably related to their ancestral genetics.
: As early as the chaotic era of Io, the sea monsters in the deep sea gradually learned about the "world above" by picking up fallen objects from the upper seawater. Therefore, the sea monsters in the future always paid attention to those who fell into the sea from their heads.
They are very fond of strange things. Their ability to collect is even amazing to Lily: Husky girls usually like to take all kinds of stones home...well, pick them up and store them at home, but Nassato
The things collected by the sea monsters are much higher than Lily's pile of broken stones!
The collections in the collection are arranged according to time, and the farther out the collections are, the closer they are to modern times. Hao Ren slowly walked deeper along this "solidified timeline", almost feeling like he was reading the history of this planet.
On the shelves of the latest era, the most common items are various utensils made by humans. The latest is a small ring. It comes from an unknown lovelorn girl on the West Coast of the United States. The owner of the ring sadly threw it into the water.
Inside, a sea monster that happened to be swimming below happily picked it up, played with it for a few days, and then put it in the collection. And walking a little further, you can see a piece of paper with beautiful cursive letters.
The metal plate was a relic from a certain sunken ship. Moving forward, Hao Ren saw torpedoes and artillery shells, as well as periscope parts of the submarine and a broken metal nameplate: these things came from World War II.
He even saw the Bismarck's boiler fragments, which Katrina personally recovered. When the Bismarck sank, the Siren Queen watched the gorgeous fireworks above in the deep water. Finally, she cut pieces from the Bismarck's boiler.
A piece of steel plate was used as a souvenir of this observation of human beings.
Further forward, the collection became older, and some interesting and strange items began to appear. The captain's log of the Spanish merchant ship and the pirate's scimitar were placed together, mixed with fragments of fishing gear swept into the sea by the tsunami.
There are also strange-looking telescopes and strange things that have no apparent function at all and look like magic tools. Hao Ren's attention was attracted by a cylinder made of platinum, which was engraved with exquisite patterns.
It depicts a nine-headed monster, ocean waves and a six-pointed star symbol. Katrina introduced what was in front of him like a tour guide: "This is the 'gold-seeking tube' of the great pirate Poserba. It was the last one who knew how to
The pirate captain of the black magic, he could see any ship carrying gold from thousands of miles away on the sea through this special telescope, which made him extremely rich. However, in the end, the pirate captain was killed by a chicken bone stuck in the captain's body.
In the room, his pirate ship was engulfed by the storm shortly after."
"That era was shrouded in mystery and darkness," Vivian put a small gold-decorated dagger back on the shelf. "Sailors were the most susceptible to being bewitched by black magic. Because they were far away from the land, they were also far away from the church.
Influenced by the public opinion of demon hunters, those superstitious and bold "sea people" are always willing to discuss stories of magic and curses. Therefore, after the end of the mythical age on land, the influence of "magic" still exists in the ocean.
It lasted a long time.”
Hao Ren nodded thoughtfully and continued walking along the timeline. He noticed that the things on the shelves on both sides gradually changed from gorgeous and exquisite to simple and rough. He had just passed the glorious period of human civilization and was gradually approaching a more primitive and ignorant period.
In the Middle Ages, tattered fishing nets and old sword fragments became the main exhibits on the shelves. Mixed among them were more and more crude items related to magic, as well as some more surprising historical artifacts.
An ugly round stone and a pile of messy wood fragments were placed on a separate stack, and a sign next to it read: Richard, the human king, attacked Cyprus with a trebuchet.
"Do you know how valuable these things are?" Hao Ren couldn't help but think of Katrina's previous statement that this collection was "not very important." His eyes widened, and he had huge doubts about Siren's values.
At first, when he saw several soldiers around the entrance to the collection hall, he thought the place was heavily guarded, but now he felt that the place was wide open: the Kraken only posted four guards here.
Sentinel. And only an antique iron door is used to guard the treasure house!
"Is it important?" Katrina didn't feel it at all, "Anyway, people in the upper world throw away unwanted things..."
"I'm thinking that at least half of it wasn't thrown away by people on their own initiative..." Lily stuck out her tongue, "Shipwrecks and sea disasters are all accidents, right?"
Katrina swung her tail slightly, with a confused look on her face: "Probably... It almost means the same thing."
Hao Ren felt that he and the Siren Queen could not communicate with each other in terms of values at all, so he curled his lips, turned around and continued to swim forward. After passing those simple and rough medieval relics, he found that the things on the shelf had once again become
Be refined.
There are fewer and fewer crude creations of mankind, and a harpoon used by fishermen has become the last human symbol ahead. Of course, according to the timeline, this harpoon should be the first human item collected by the siren. And then
Going forward, these are all things that were impossible to create with the human society of those days:
Exquisite machines made of metal, strange devices made of crystal, colorful crystal crowns, exquisite canes that constantly shine, and all kinds of other wonderful products that are obviously not in line with the characteristics of human civilization. Hao Ren was stunned for a moment.
, and then realized that he had arrived in the age of myth.
He glanced back, only to find that he had only progressed less than one-fifth of the distance beside this long exhibition shelf: it was almost just a fragment in this ten thousand-year history.
"Humans can only dominate this planet for so long," Weiwei quietly looked at the crude human relics and the shiny alien "artifacts". There was only a display shelf between the two things. The contrast was so sharp that
People were stunned and said, "This is amazing. If we go back five hundred years in time, human beings still pray every night that the demon will not come and take away their children. If we go back one thousand and five hundred years ago, human beings are still afraid of werewolves every day."
Or the vampires suddenly broke into the town and went back two thousand and five hundred years. They were still kneeling down and bowing to the cruel alien gods, but now they are the only masters of this planet, and their creations only account for a fifth of it.
One location, but they have already occupied the entire planet on the surface."
"Those who are not enterprising will eventually be eliminated." Hao Ren shook his head.
"This bow belongs to Artemis!" Vivian suddenly found something she recognized, which was a gleaming silver long bow. "...this bow was used after Mount Olympus fell into the space storm.
The bow was lost and I didn’t expect it to fall into the sea.”
Lily found a heavy trident with a black iron-like texture and a faint blue light emitting from the tip on a shelf not far away. She shouted in surprise: "Katrina! Isn't the trident the equipment of your sirens?
Dumped it here?"
"That's not the model used by Siren, that's Poseidon's. He once tried to force his way into Nasatorn, but was trapped on the bottom of the sea by the distortion field around the starship. Later, he used his trident as a bargaining chip to fight with the sea monster.
We put him back after the monsters negotiated," Katrina said, shaking her head slightly, "We are kind to others, but that doesn't mean anyone can disturb us."
Vivian was a little surprised: "Is Poseidon's trident here with you? Why didn't I know that he lost his weapon? At the end of Olympus, Poseidon still used the trident to fight the demon hunter."
"Then I don't know. He probably has a lot of tridents. After all, it's a shameful thing. If he lost his weapon, he wouldn't publicize it everywhere," Katrina shrugged. "The world on land is too chaotic. Do we understand it?"
So much, we didn't even know there was a 'god' in the ocean until the bearded guy who called himself Poseidon came to cause trouble. The sea monster doesn't care about these messy things."
After a while, Lily yelled again: "Hey, why is there a shoe sole here?"
"Those are Zeus's slippers."
Lily: "..."
The relics of the Olympus gods aroused greater interest among everyone. These ancient artifacts still retain some power today, and they can vaguely glimpse the strength of the Zeus family in the past. Hao Ren curiously walked among these old antiques.
While walking around, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a gray-white object that looked like a sculpture pedestal.
"Huh? This thing...why does it look familiar?" (~^~)
