It can also be said that pre-modern human beings have not given up on the dream of human domination of the world! A group of human beings who have been frozen under the earth for decades or hundreds of years have woken up from the ice and started another journey of human beings to dominate the world. Old Jill felt a little dry when he spoke of this, and while listening with relish to his "myth", Huohua was the first to wake up because of Old Jill's pause.

He saw old Jill cough twice with a dry throat, and handed over his kettle with great eyesight, and after taking a few sips, old Jill gave Huohua a look of thanks, and began to continue to tell what he had heard. This will even the dwarf Luo, a guy, unconsciously integrate into the team of listeners, and obediently become a curious student.

This group of awakened humans survived in a huge cave, but under the terrain changes, squeezing, dampness and other factors in the cave over the years, most of the frozen people in the cave could never wake up again, and the number of surviving frozen people was only a few hundred. And because technology cannot be preserved through "mechanical containers", the books that were originally used as carriers for the preservation of science and technology have been destroyed, like most of the frozen people who can't wake up.

Therefore, the surviving group of people can only cooperate with each other to grope out of the cave and begin to re-adapt to this changed world, the good news is that other life in the world has also re-established itself on the earth in the change, and the sad thing is that these creatures are completely different from the animals seen by humans in the last century, they are either powerful, or cunning, or after a step before the resurrection of the frozen man, they have developed wisdom and have gained a firm foothold in this chaotic and complex world.

And these intelligent beings are orcs, dwarves, goblins, elves, and so on. Speaking of this, old Jill also glanced at Coxsha and Luo beside him, and found that they were still immersed in the story he told, so he continued his story on his own.

Therefore, these frozen people can only start to rebuild the human home by relying on the residual "scientific and technological knowledge" in the brains of some frozen people. Decades or centuries later, humanity finally regained some of the hegemony of the human race, and established a kingdom belonging to humanity on several major roads. Correspondingly, the other races of this century have also established their own hegemony, and human beings are only one of the races in the hegemony.

The industry of humans, the casting of dwarves, the physique of orcs, the magic of elves, the black technology of goblins. It is the foundation of these races. Of course, there is constant friction between the various hegemonic systems, and at the same time, there is constant trade. Over the past few hundred years, the tilting and communication between various countries have made several countries have become stronger and stronger "hegemonic capital" that only belongs to intelligent life. And human industry is precisely the important foundation of this "hegemonic capital".

And until the Elven Kingdom appeared an Elven King named Gaia, the era before it was collectively referred to as the "Industrial Age".

The group of people who listened to the story of Old Jill surrounded Old Jill tightly as they walked, and even when they arrived at the guest house, they sat in their places without saying a word, and no one asked or interjected. The goblin waiter who came to hand over the menu was pushed out of the door by Koksha, warning the waiter to wait for him to inform him before serving, but the guest house can prepare the food first, and serve it according to the highest specifications, and it will save everyone inside from waiting for the food in a while, Cokesha's authority as the son of the leader is still quite large, and the goblin waiter signaled that he knew, so he hurriedly ran to the kitchen, not daring to say a word to Koksha.

"Gaia again?" Although Rong Wei belonged to the category of people, he was obviously still deeply attracted by this story that was no different from a myth. After listening to Rong Wei's question, the others also showed curious expressions and waited for Old Jill to follow.

Only Liu Bai looked at Rong Wei's standard Mu Na face a little unnaturally, and the scene of Rong Wei's body squatting on the ground and screaming last night kept coming to mind, and at the same time, he also remembered his idiot deeds, and his face showed a trace of embarrassment. Fortunately, after returning to Shago City last night, the real Little Spot couldn't stand it anymore and the real Rong Wei occupied the arms of Xiaohui Nephrite Warm Fragrance and finally understood the use of the replacement fragments, and after returning to their true bodies with each other, Rong Wei seemed to have no interest in promoting the idiot dialogue between Liu Bai and Little Spot, otherwise it is estimated that Liu Bai would have been complained to death by Huohua and Wu Xiaoyue last night.

"Yes! It's Gaia again. Norton, the last king of the Elven Kingdom of that century, named his prince Gaia, and legend has it that Norton obtained something in the Nameless Ruins, giving him unparalleled magical manipulation and powerful mechanical knowledge. Then it took him a full 18 years to pull up a unit of hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers. ”

"But—" Old Jill couldn't help but take another big sip of water, and saw that the group of young people in front of him were deeply attracted by his story, and there was a slight smugness on his forehead.

"But what?" Wu Xiaoyue, who was anxious, was eager to know the next follow-up, and was forced to sit down by a common glare from the others, but Old Jill didn't care about Wu Xiaoyue's impatience and rudeness, and took a sip of water leisurely before he began to continue his story.

"But ah, on the day of Gaia's 18th birthday coming-of-age ceremony, the old king died suddenly, and Gaia inherited all the abilities of the old king, including mechanical knowledge, as well as magical strength that is even more terrifying than the old king!"

"Is it this Gaia who killed his father and snatched the throne and snatched his father's treasure to obtain the ability?" This time it was the turn of the dwarf Luo who couldn't bear it to interject, but Old Jill followed Luo's question and said: "Some people say that Gaia took away the treasure and gained the ability, and some people say that the treasure is Gaia in the first century, which gave the old king part of the ability and let the old king help it recover." Some people even say that in fact, the old king and the prince are just pawns possessed and manipulated by Gaia. ”

"But this is just an unfounded legend, there is no need to focus on the details like that, I just tell the story that is most widely circulated at the top. ”

Old Jill seemed to be a little interrupted by Law's question, and he straightened his mind a little, and began to continue with the version of the legend he had heard.

Anyway, Gaia, with his absolute magical strength, powerful mechanical soldier legions, and the strong national power of the elven kingdom, swept through all the countries on the six continents in just ten years, unified all the intelligent races, and demanded that on the day he ascended the throne and became emperor, all the intelligent races must move to the main city of the elven kingdom to settle down, otherwise he will order the slaughter of all intelligent beings who have not moved over.

Can you imagine the world's tens of billions of humans, dwarves, goblins, orcs, and elves all gathered on a continent of 13 million hectares of Atlantis! It took three years for all the intelligent creatures to settle. It doesn't matter whether these creatures are actively or passively gathered on this continent. The rest of the world's population on the other five continents is a few diehards who survive under the hunt of many mechanical soldiers, or people who were already reclusive in their time, orcs, dwarves, or goblins.

But on the contrary, because of their stubbornness and ignorance of the world, these people were lucky enough to let them escape another catastrophe of annihilation. On the day of Gaia's enthronement, under the worship of tens of billions of subjects, Gaia declared himself to be the god of this world. He used a butcher's knife to force tens of billions of people to chant his name, and the endless and all-day Gaia cries almost broke through the sky for creatures beyond the stars to hear.

Gaia gathered a powerful magical power, and as the people's louder and louder cries slowly rose to the sky, the louder the people's cries, the greater the magic on Gaia's body. Until the black magic covered by Gaia's body changed from small to large, from only the size of a fist to the size of a city, and then to the size of half a sky!

"Give me more faith! Or you will put me to death!" Gaia, who was high in the air, gave a frenzied rebuke! His huge roar spread throughout Atlantis, like thunder! Tens of billions of people trembled in such an unnatural strangeness, and gave up all their fears and insecurities, and continued to chant Gaia's name hysterically.

Gaia frantically terrorized the populace, feeling like all the magic in the world was gathering on him. The magic that covered the entire sky began to gather in his heart.

Ten minutes passed, and the magic that originally covered the entire sky was absorbed by Gaia's heart and turned into only half of the sky.

Twenty minutes passed, and the magic that covered half the sky was the size of a city.

Thirty minutes passed, and the magic that had condensed into the size of a city began to dissolve into deeper dark dots in Gaia's heart. The dot began to absorb at an accelerated pace like a black hole. Condense into deeper darkness!

The distortion on Gaia's face began to take on non-human changes, and as the black hole washed faster and faster, he felt his body begin to feel a sense of expansion, but it was still at the point where he could tolerate it, but the pain made the distortion on his face begin to abstract.

"What is this?" the black hole finally absorbed all the magic, but it had no intention of stopping. A golden heart began to condense behind the black hole, and Gaia seemed to feel his own anomaly. But he couldn't stop the black hole at the mouth of his heart.

Something transparent and shapeless began to appear at the mouth of the black hole, an abstract thing called the rules of the world: energy, overlap, differentiation, wind, fire, etc., etc. Until the golden heart could no longer hold any superfluous rules under the continuous devouring of the black hole, after its endurance limit, the golden heart was shattered into countless world fragments scattered around the world under the huge and indescribable energy explosion.

And Gaia, who wanted to become a god, had already lost his bones and turned into ashes under that indescribable burst of energy! The powerful burst of energy bore the brunt of the Atlantis continent directly below, and tens of billions of people sank to the bottom of the sea with the entire continent's civilization, turning into an understatement in legends.
