In the dead of night, there was a faint light on the top of the ancient tree hills. The 'Door of True Knowledge' was opened, and Zhou Qingfeng sat in front of the desk and chair in the library, reading page by page the history book written by the elves.
From the 'Thunder Age' 35,000 years ago, to the 'Dawn Age' 24,000 years ago, to the 'First Prosperity' 12,000 years ago, to the rise of mankind about 4,000 years ago.
...
There was no such thing as human beings on the continent in ancient times. Even the giant dragons had to stand aside. It was an era of extremely ancient and primitive creatures, such as fish people and snake people.
Over a long period of time, the elf recorded as much historical information as possible.
"The books in the Gate of True Knowledge come from the Crown Library of Evermeet Island. They were simply summarized and compiled by an elf prophet thousands of years ago. He tried his best to select some useful information and compiled it into a book, retaining about 30% of the original library.
The content of one.”
Xili sat next to her, watching Zhou Qingfeng slowly flip through the book and explain a few words casually. Zhou Qingfeng asked strangely: "That's one-thirtieth? Who is this prophet?"
Hilly just smiled and pointed to the rows of bookshelves in front of her desk, "I am not allowed to reveal the name of this prophet. But he is in these books. If he is recognized, he will naturally come out to find you."
Zhou Qingfeng looked up at the almost endless bookshelves. Feeling groggy, he stretched out and asked the hidden servant to turn the pages for him. He was now focusing on reading Feilun's history book, hoping to learn more about this city full of various positions.
Face and countless possible worlds.
Hilly asked again: "Victor, have you gained anything from the books?"
In Zhou Qingfeng's hands is a historical collection called "Dark Disasters", which records a huge disaster that happened about 13,000 years ago. There was an elf country called "Mai Yeli Tower" that was slaughtered for three months.
The storm destroyed.
This storm was so terrible that it frightened the elves throughout Faerûn. They believed that the high wizards of 'Maiyeli Tower' created this storm. But why did the wizards create this storm that destroyed themselves?
It's not mentioned in the book.
"I have a feeling that whenever a certain civilization in Faerûn develops to a certain height, it will inevitably lead to a huge disaster. War, famine, demon invasion, irrational natural disasters, then the civilization is destroyed and then rebuilt.
start.
Every thousand to fifteen hundred years, this kind of thing will inevitably happen somewhere in Faerûn. Looking at these historical records, there are countless countries that have been destroyed.
More than 30,000 years ago, an ancient lizard established the Mershok Empire. Only two thousand years later, the ancient lizard began to decline, and the snake people took control of the empire. However, constant civil strife caused the snake people's rule to remain unstable until thousands of years ago.
Years later, it was completely destroyed by the dragon.
The giant dragons didn't fare well either. The war between them and the giant race continued until one day the elves used the 'Dragon Madness Lock' to completely defeat them. This powerful species is now like the giants, all shrunk to the corner of the continent and lingering.
As for the elves, today's humans think that the elves are reclusive, peaceful and leisurely. However, there have been continuous wars between the many kingdoms they established. Until they themselves became crippled, they could only flee the mainland in despair and hide in
Everlasting Island.
Human civilization has been around for ten thousand years, and began to flourish four thousand years ago. During this period, many great countries were born and countless civilizations were created. Netheril, Imaskar, and Calimshan, these empires rose and fell.
Keep alternating.
Dragons, giants, elves, dwarves, humans, and even orcs and goblins have all established their own civilizations and kingdoms. But they cannot escape a periodic process of destruction. Whenever history books say that their civilization has developed to an extremely high level,
Destruction is imminent."
"This kind of cliff-like destruction is so unreasonable." Zhou Qingfeng was sighing, but Xili said: "Isn't that what intelligent races are like? War and destruction are happening every day, and it's not surprising at all. At least before the destruction, these giants
Empires have prospered."
"No, it's not that simple." Zhou Qingfeng shook his head in a deep voice, "I got a wind-powered forging machine in Harmony Village. I always thought that no one had invented this thing before. But look at the records of the history of science and technology, elves, dwarves and even goblins
They all created the same thing."
"Goblins also had civilization?" Hilly asked in surprise. She couldn't imagine what kind of civilization those green monsters who could only scream "Oke Oke" could have. "The 'Gate of True Knowledge' also recorded the civilization of goblins?
I didn’t even know.”
"This is exactly what I'm wondering about." Zhou Qingfeng put down the book "Dark Natural Disaster" in his hand, "What caused civilization to be continuously destroyed, without even leaving any inheritance." He vaguely guessed something and asked.
Cyric.
But the God of Murder refused to answer questions in this regard.
"Fifty years ago, Silverleaf City was destroyed by the invasion of demons. Also destroyed were several powerful countries in the North. Now, the Iron Curtain covers the North. This seems to be a punishment, and even the demons dare not speak.
Such punishment will directly ruin the future of Northland."
Zhou Qingfeng was in confusion. He lowered his head and looked at his desk. All the history books on the desk told him that in this damn alien world, civilization has no future, only reincarnation.
"I live in this kind of hellish place. It's so fucking pathetic." Zhou Qingfeng felt unhappy. The direct consequence of the endless reincarnation of civilization is that his life is extremely backward - poor housing, poor food, and poor clothing.
No, there are not many pretty girls.
People in the Black Forest eat bran and live in extremely poor conditions. If there is less sawdust in the black bread, the people below will praise Chairman Hugo for his generosity and kindness.
Zhou Qingfeng originally thought that this was the reason why food could not be grown in the north, but according to Succubus, even in the food-producing areas of the south, crop yields were only so small. If his men took one more bite, the serfs in the south would be hungry.
How many died.
Carrots, turnips, acorns, these are the normal rations for ordinary people. In good years, they can be used to feed livestock, and in bad years, they can be eaten by themselves. Even weedy barnyard grass will be pounded into rice as a staple food.
If a family goes without food for three or four days, the women and children will often starve to death first. The remaining adult men have no choice but to flee. This is how most of the population in the Black Forest comes from.
When Harmony Village can provide a relatively stable food supply, the leaders of other human settlements will not be able to control the fleeing of their farmers. Everyone needs to eat. When your eyes are red with hunger, any bullshit belief is useless. The king of heaven will kill you.
look.
Standing on the top of the ancient tree hills, you can see that in order to fill their stomachs, the cowardly goblins gathered tens of thousands of them and repeatedly attacked the acidophilic ants' defense line, forcing more than 300,000 acidophilic ants to retreat underground.
The pressure of survival is so great. This is true for goblins, let alone humans.
Zhou Qingfeng opened the door to true knowledge and read history. After reading it, he felt even worse.
This alien civilization has been reincarnated for more than 30,000 years, and more than one or two intelligent races must have seen the problem. But they have not been able to solve this problem... and they have all disappeared into history.
Faced with this kind of environment, Zhou Qingfeng asked himself - what should I do? Should I go with the flow, let nature take its course, or..., beat it to pieces and make the sun and moon fade away!
