Chapter 412: Ancient History

The memorial hall here is made of white rock, and the huge stone strips have a rough surface, and the square buildings are not decorated, which makes it look very quaint.

Walking into the foyer of the main door, there were several mottled stone slabs inlaid on the wall facing the main door, which made Charles look familiar.

Charles thought for a moment, then looked at Diana beside him with an incredulous expression.

Diana looked up at the ceiling, avoiding Charles's gaze.

When Charles first visited the City of Knowledge two years ago, Diana approached him and Mira to decipher a few stone tablets that had been snatched from the demons hundreds of years ago, and which were now embedded in the walls of the memorial.

Diana was so uncomfortable with Charles that she turned her head and whispered in Charles' ear, "They made a few pieces that were the same as the real ones." ”

Now Charles understood, every time the Rurik Kingdom was beaten by the brave people, a lot of things were robbed, and after they recovered, they would ask the elves to recycle the valuable ones.

Next to the stele is an explanatory plaque that says it is the earliest official written record of the history of the demons. These steles were originally standing by the river, but they were washed away one year after a great flood, and were snatched away shortly after they were dug up during the expansion of Abyss City many years later.

The two began to walk into the exhibition hall of the memorial hall in the order of visiting, where there were many sculptures, murals, paintings and other cultural relics that reflected the history of the demon clan in various periods.

Charles had seen the glass panes used to make ceilings in Aunt Lef's bathroom, so it wasn't a novelty to see the exhibits behind glass cabinets.

The earliest pottery in the exhibit is said to have been used by the ancestors of the Demon Clan, and Charles's attention is focused on a black clay pot that is only half left.

This clay pot is black, with a smooth surface, and the walls are thin, which is proportionally as thin as an eggshell.

"It's ingenious. Charles sighed.

Next to this black clay pot are several ordinary jars with Jomon patterns as decorations.

"These jars are very chic. Charles turned to Diana.

As a result, he saw Diana's mouth slightly open, her hands trembling slightly, and her eyes staring at an object in the cabinet.

Charles glanced over, but his eyes widened like Diana, and it took a while for him to spit out "It's not scientific!"

It was a jade axe, and the surface of the axe was impressively engraved with simple gluttonous patterns.

"It's a lot like Yongsan culture. Diana whispered in Charles's ear, "I have a collection of antiques from that period in my house, so I recognize them." ”

Charles wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Don't tell me that the demons are with you or I am a fellow countryman." ”

"Go ahead and see. "There's too little information to judge." ”

Charles nodded and said, "It's good to keep looking, we haven't unearthed an ancient human with horns on the head like the Demon Race." ”

Then he and Diana looked at each other at the same time, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Diana said: "We have unearthed the ruins of the Jiuli tribe over there, but the horns on their heads are different from those of the demons, but they are similar to yours, but you don't want to study them for me." ”

Charles's face darkened, "Did you come to study with a saw?"

The horns of the demons are "?" type,The dragon's horns are in the shape of a "∧" cone, and the horns of someone in the demon form are conical and the top is bent backwards at the same time, similar to "?" He felt that it was because a certain bloodline had been activated.

But then a stone mural surprised the two.

When the demons first arrived here, they didn't have much mural carving skills, but the elves they encountered at that time knew this.

The elf wife of the Holy Son carved the story that circulated in the demon clan at that time into a mural and preserved it, but unfortunately most of the murals were destroyed due to years of war.

The glass-protected mural depicts two armies fighting, one with a human appearance and the other with horns on its head, which look exactly like Charles's head.

Diana poked Charles and asked, "Isn't that an atavistic situation?"

"Who knows?" said Charles, confused, "it's not impossible to evolve over the years. ”

After walking two steps, a group of terracotta figurines caught Diana's attention.

"Humans?" Diana was a little surprised to find a human with no horns on his head among the terracotta figurines of demons, orcs, and elves.

"What's wrong?" Charles asked.

Diana frowned and said: "According to historical books and legends, human beings only lived in the plains of the lower reaches of the Great River at that time, and the humans here were all descendants of captives. ”

Both of them were confused, and the questions they didn't understand were put aside first, and they would consult experts when they had time.

The style of the following exhibits began to change, and with the change of social structure, the initial culture of the demons and the culture of the elves and orcs began to merge and develop.

About three thousand years ago, the footprints of the demons had already crossed the forest sea eastward and came to the east of the continent, and it was at this time that they came into contact with humans.

It was only later that the war between the two sides began, and the territory of the human race expanded rapidly, until the demons retreated to the west of the forest sea, some of the orcs retreated to the steppe, and the elves returned to the south.

The two looked all the way, and there were more questions.

The biggest headache for them was the jade axe engraved with gluttonous patterns, and the two of them had no clue for a long time.

And the image of the Demon Lady also made them feel a little strange, she broke the left corner from the beginning, this broken corner seems to have something to say, but no one can tell what it is.

"Forget it, ask a historian when you have time. Charles shook his head, "There are so many unscientific and unmagical things in this world. ”

"That's all there is to it. Diana nodded helplessly.

At this time, the two had already walked out of the back door of the memorial, and in front of them was the mausoleum of the Virgin and the Son.

The mausoleum is built of black stone, but the appearance looks a bit like ancient Greek architecture, and the eighteen pillars at the main entrance are carved in the shape of a warrior with a bow, which looks like the guards of the mausoleum.

It's just that at this time, there are many tourists who come to pay respects to the ancestors, and the management has to erect a fence to guide tourists.

Looking at the crowd in front of the mausoleum like a Spring Festival train station, Charles said to Diana: "Why don't we come back another day." ”

Diana nodded
