About 50 years have passed since the great disaster that swept through the Sea of Ayaka. It was also 30 years ago that the remaining humans moved the earth to the Ivar galaxy.
On the way to escape, the fighting almost never stopped. Even after arriving in the Ivar system, phantoms of chaos still invaded from time to time.
For this reason, outside the Ivar galaxy, there are dragons that roam the sea of stars all year round. They destroy the phantoms of chaos from outer space. The leader of these dragons is the original sequence 10·The Dragon of Destruction, Baha
Mutt.
There is another giant dragon that is as famous as it, and that is the Original Sequence 10 Creation Dragon, Zhu. But it is a pity that this Creation Dragon ran out of power when it moved the earth.
Died on the road.
For this reason, the remaining humans buried this giant dragon on the earth, and its corpse was gradually integrated into the mountains and rivers, giving the mana or magic power there a unique spirituality.
"Perhaps we have been too obsessed with the efficiency of machinery and electronics, and have forgotten and ignored many other things." A young man with blond hair stood on the hillside, overlooking the scenery below.
In the green mountains and fields, several families are living leisurely lives. Judging from their animal skin clothing and stone tools, they still seem to be very primitive, like primitive humans who have just learned to settle down.
"I didn't expect that there are still uncivilized people." A girl with long silver hair was lying on a wooden stake, overlooking the "people" in the distance.
"Have you found out their origins? Brother." The pretty girl turned around, and the long silver hair on the back of her head fell from her waist.
This girl's appearance is very special. Her long silver hair reaches to the lower side of her back, like soft satin, and her eyes are also silver-gray in color, which are particularly bright and moving, giving her a strange feeling.
"These people should be branches of our ancestors, or they are the orthodox ones." The blond boy shook his head, and then slowly explained the reason.
"When the two worlds first came into contact, great changes took place on the earth, which also led to human civil war and battles with alien beasts. You should know this, Laguire."
"Of course, I am the moon. There is almost no history that I don't know." The girl stood on tiptoes, lightly jumped over the uneven ground, and then pounced on the blond boy.
Seeing the silver hair floating in the air, the blond boy had no choice but to open his hands, catch the coquettish girl, hug her, and then put her on the ground.
"Okay, let me continue talking." He took the girl's hand, and the two of them turned and walked back to the road, talking as they walked.
"At that time, a group of people entered a hibernation device and slept on the Antarctic continent. After more than a thousand years, they gradually woke up and then re-opened the world. Later, they built floating cities in the sky, and finally divided into several factions until our predecessors
, the mechanical parliament unifies the world."
"Yeah, I know that." Laguire seemed unable to calm down. He ran and jumped along the way, sometimes looking at the wild flowers on the roadside, sometimes chasing butterflies in the grass, and responded to the blond boy's words word by word.
"But, not all humans are like this." The blond boy said as he walked.
"Many people did not enter the safe underground hibernation, but stayed on the surface of the earth where alien beasts were rampant and hunger and cold were everywhere."
"Although very few individuals survived, they survived after all. Maybe they hid in some underground cave, or maybe they got through the initial difficult time with the help of past technology."
"Later, even if they did not undergo genetic modification, they gradually adapted to this world full of Mana."
"Although, in these more than a thousand years of hardship, they have almost forgotten, forgotten, and lost all their past knowledge and skills. But they were still passed down and survived until the dawn of the dusk era."
"And these people, we call them 'adapters,' are different from those of us who have undergone genetic modification."
"Hey, that's good." Laguire put down the butterfly in his hand, turned around, and went back holding hands with the blond boy.
"It's very good, very lucky, but also very sad. After all, we used to be the same existence." The blond boy said.
"But it's still a bit uncomfortable to see them living a life of eating hair and drinking blood." The blond boy looked up at the sky.
"This is something that can't be helped. In other words, my brother was moved by the scene and remembered the past memories he saw in the base."
"We, the remaining transcendents, or the human beings who have returned to reality, have also fallen into the mortal world from that beautiful Garden of Eden." Laguire looked at the white chrysanthemum in his hand, with light yellow stamens and small white petals.
Rub and rotate in the palm of your hand.
At the end of the Twilight Era, the Mechanical Council led all humans within the faction to abandon their flesh and blood and mechanical bodies, enter the Sea of Ayaka, and become beings that exist like spirit or energy. Such humans are called transcendents.
Now that the Sea of Ayaka has been polluted, almost all of it is filled with phantoms of chaos, so these remaining humans have separated from the Sea of Ayaka and are trying to transform into entities again.
Unfortunately, most of these experiments ended in failure. In the end, they simply gave up and directly used cryopreserved embryos to breed the next generation. And these two young people were born in this way.
In order to make the human beings who were able to survive in flesh and blood again more perfect, the surviving humans picked up the theories and technologies of the former "Tree of Life" faction and began to study ways to transform and improve life.
Although there are not many of them, because they have more superior equipment and technology than hundreds of years ago, and they stand on the shoulders of giants for research, these people have also created a race that is better than the orcs in the past.
At the same time, in order to satisfy the preferences of individuals or designers, the appearance and genes of this race are almost perfect, the body shape and muscles are exceptionally well-proportioned, and the lifespan is many times longer than ordinary life.
Finally, they named the new human race they created after a race in fantasy stories, which is 'elves'.
The two of them toured and walked through the mountains, and after a long time they arrived at the gathering place. By this time, several young people were already waiting here.
Judging from their appearance, they are all very similar in age, probably around 16-19 years old. The man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and they are all wearing white clothes or skirts.
"Leguire and Michael are back, and everyone is almost here now. Let's go back."
"Hmm, I want to go back to eat. Xiaobai is also hungry." A young girl said this. She folded her two fingers together and touched them gently. Inadvertently, a thumb-thick
A pure white little snake came out from between the sleeves, wrapped around the wrist, spitting out the letter slightly, looking a bit cute.
"Xiaowa actually brought the pet out, aren't you afraid of the teacher's criticism?" A young man with slightly dark skin rested his head on a stone nearby.
"Ugh...ah...Brother Xing, can you not tell the teacher?" The girl put the little snake into her sleeve, carried it behind her back, looked at the boy, and asked in a delicate voice.
"Ah, actually I'm not that kind of rigid and heartless person..." Seeing this scene, the dark-skinned young man felt a little embarrassed, as if he had done something he shouldn't have done.
"Hahaha, you should be more careful in front of Xiaowa." A taller girl came over and said something jokingly.
After that, the few people had some fun, and then took the small spaceship back to the large floating city in the sky, where they usually lived.
As a member of the 'Sun of Divine Wings', everyone will follow the agreement set by the organization and not easily interfere with the process of life on earth, but allow them to develop freely, in the hope that these lives can take a different path from the past.
——————
Ten years later, the parliament hall of the Divine Winged Sun.
Under the delicate gray giant stone wall, a sun carving is lifelike, with a faint golden brilliance flowing through it.
"Then please, one of the Seven Virtues, Sun Crown Michael, will speak." As the host finished speaking, people in silver robes applauded and welcomed, and then watched a blond man walk onto the stage.
In front of him, he was wearing white clothes and had a pair of light golden eyes.
"In order to break this silent situation and to restore the world's past peace, my proposal is as follows..." Icons and text appeared on the virtual screen behind him.
"Extraordinary power is not the only option. We can still see countless possibilities in this world. Excessive indulgence in such power will only make us gradually narrow and enter an extreme path."
"Everyone must know the past about the extinction of the dinosaurs. Today I will use this to tell a story about whether the optimal solution should be chosen and whether the highest efficiency means absolutely correct."
"As we all know, dinosaurs still ruled Pangea during the Jurassic Period. Various races occupied every corner of the sky, earth, and oceans. They were extremely powerful and stable."
"So far, they have not stopped evolving and are still developing various ways of evolution. However, whether they are herbivorous or carnivorous, their bodies are almost always getting bigger. The purpose is to stack panel attributes in the increasingly fierce competition among the same kind."
"Because if you don't grow bigger, it means failure in competition."
"However, such behavior ultimately laid the root of the disaster, that is, its existence relied too much on abundant food and environment, and finally it was completely extinct in a disaster."
"To sum up, it is:
1. When the competition around them becomes more and more fierce and cruel, individuals have to start pursuing the most efficient and optimal solution. Individuals who do not adopt this approach will fail in the competition or even die.
2. When the optimal solution is generated, all individuals will imitate it, further increasing the intensity of competition. All individuals in the group begin to converge, that is, their shapes and patterns are very similar.
3. When individuals of a race all live according to one form and model, their risk resistance will be greatly reduced. Once the environment changes and the model is not suitable, it will lead to the direct demise of this race."
"In the past life, due to space limitations, learning costs, own conditions, etc., it was difficult to move forward when reaching the second step."
"Although this resulted in losing the competition, or failing to get first place, it also forced individuals to find new ways and take a different path, and finally added a new path or model for the entire ethnic group."
"But the purpose of the 'Mechanical Parliament' is the highest efficiency, rapid replication, and efficient unity. After becoming a transcendent without entity, it can change its various modes at will to copy the most outstanding models."
"Although this made us powerful in a very short period of time, so much so that in just two hundred years, we spread all over the fourth spiral arm of the Milky Way, it also laid the groundwork for subsequent disasters."
"I have thought that in the future, mankind will take a new path. But the hope is really slim, because of the extraordinary power and the existence of the Sea of Ayaka."
"It is a shortcut filled with the highest temptation, attracting all known life, and then repeating our mistakes again."
"Like the most beautiful poison."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the members below, paused for a while and spoke again.
"In addition, dinosaurs were not completely extinct. Among them, the maniraptor family, when many dinosaurs were chasing powerful bodies, uncharacteristically gave up getting bigger and committed themselves to low trees. They were good at catching small animals with their feathers, which later became the
Ancestors of birds.”
"However, in the development process of birds, the earliest and most prosperous enantiornithids with the best flying ability did not survive, but were extinct along with their competitors, pterosaurs, in the catastrophe. The last surviving birds were those from the original
A flightless subclass of Imamornites that fishes in the water and finds food in the grass.”
"And it will be tens of millions of years before they take off again."
"This is also the purpose of our 'Sun of Divine Wings', to try to preserve a variety of survival and evolution models to adapt to this unpredictable world, rather than simply pursuing efficiency and giving up everything else."
"So we revived the skills of the Tree of Life sect and allowed the ideas of other sects to enter our study curriculum."
"With such a purpose, the existence of the Sea of Ayaka is a stifling of diversity."
"I don't think extraordinary power is everything. In the final analysis, it is just the product of the settlement of another dimension. The world we live in may not be worse than another world."
"The knowledge and abilities we can master today are far from reaching the limits of this world."
"High-level technology is no different from magic, or even better. And I also believe that after giving up extraordinary power, this galaxy will once again be clean and return to the correct path of the past. It will be a time when a hundred flowers bloom.
the way."
"And we will eventually embrace the blazing sun with our own wings."
When the young Sun Crown finished his words, the audience burst into warm applause, and the grand plan on the screen also exuded a faint light, so noble and restrained.
