Blacksmith Zhang used tongs to remove the recast thunderbolt and threw it into the pool of water that had been prepared, and the water in the pool was according to him. It is also the water that has been gathered by means of several years of heaven and earth aura to cool the new sword to protect the sword from the damage of rapid cooling as much as possible.

But when the sword was thrown into the pool, it was still a big surprise: a pool full of water boiled as soon as the sword was thrown in, and after a while, it evaporated most of the pool's water! Finally, as the water vapor gradually dissipated and the level in the pool calmed, the weapon was completely cooled.

After Blacksmith Zhang clamped it out again, He Ming tried to touch the thunderbolt after reforging, and found that there was no terrible residual temperature as imagined at all, and he felt moderately warm and cold when he started it, as warm as warm jade. Although the length is a foot shorter than before, the sword body is more slender, but the weight remains the same at all, and it is still a thunderbolt that is easy for him.

When not in use, it looks like a long sword, which is unremarkable, but when he uses his strength, the runes on the sword body begin to swim on the wind talisman, which should have the effect of increasing speed. He Ming danced at will, and there was a feeling of freedom as if he was using his own arm.

Surprised, he looked ahead, it was a tall, sturdy sword test stone that the blacksmith had been preparing for a long time. According to the standard of this sword, if the transformation is successful, then cutting this stone is like probing for something, but He Ming is still a little reluctant to give up on this newly cast sword.

But he didn't know where to come from a kind of absolute confidence in his heart, believing that there would be absolutely no problem with this sword after transformation, so he took a step forward, and without even condensing the sword qi, he swung the sword and slashed directly at the sword stone.

Zheng! Cha! After two sounds, the sword withered and devastated it, and in one fell swoop split the four-foot-high sword test stone into two, the incision was as smooth as a mirror, and when the stone was chopped, it was even more than a slight resistance in the first contact, and then it was like cutting tofu.

He Ming was stunned for a long time with the sword in his hand, but suddenly heard Blacksmith Zhang be crazy, and laughed loudly:

"Hahahaha! With such a sword in my hands, he can show off in front of the old man, but I wonder if he will fight me with the broken copper and iron he has made? ”

The laughter seemed to be crazy for a long time, but suddenly his voice was hoarse, and then he coughed a few times before he barely stopped.

Holding their chests, several of them finally realized that the physical strength that had been seriously overdrawn in the past few tens of days would not disappear with the excitement brought by the success of sword forging.

After looking at each other, Blacksmith Zhang's eyes were always bright, and finally he felt a little unable to open them, he fought hard, maintained politeness, and asked his apprentice to prepare a fresh meal that had not been eaten for many days.

His apprentice was tired enough, but he still prepared a table of fresh vegetarian meals with amazing speed, rice, vegetables and some dried meat, so that they could feast on a meal that they had not eaten well these days.

The dinner table was surprisingly quiet, everyone just wanted to eat and sleep quickly, they could still sit at this time, He Ming felt that it could be regarded as a miracle.

Quickly swept all the food on the table into their stomachs, they were even more polite, they all went directly to their respective beds and lay down, He Ming had lost consciousness before he even covered the quilt, these few people who were in this world were full of dominance, and they slept to the extent that a carnivorous beast could kill them all if they touched it casually.

Fortunately, the house was also very sturdy, and although the doors and windows were breathable, there were no gaps in the beasts to get into, and the least of the group slept for more than two days before they woke up.

He Ming slept the longest, and when he finally woke up, when one foot stepped on the ground from the bed, in addition to the comfort brought by full rest, he also felt very weak, and his feet were soft on the ground.

Raising his hand to take a closer look, he found that during this period of time, in addition to extreme fatigue, his body was also too casual in the next few days, and he was very emaciated, and his arms were not small.

Putting these aside first, he put on his costume and put away the thunderbolt, and as soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Blacksmith Zhang, who had also lost a lot of weight, sitting in the center of the hall with his eyes closed.

Hearing He Ming's footsteps, he opened his eyes, and when he saw He Ming, he said:

"Xiaoyou, you go wash up first and eat something, I have something to say to you."

He Ming completed all this with his own speed, and after returning to Blacksmith Zhang's side, he motioned for He Ming to sit down as a guest.

He Ming actually wanted to express a lot of gratitude in his heart, but now that he has received great kindness from others, he has nothing to thank him, so he doesn't know where to open for a while.

"He Ming, you and I have known each other for a short time, but we are very fateful. What's even more commendable is that you are young, but you have already been exposed to many secrets that the world does not know, and any one of them is a big deal, which is shocking. ”

He Ming looked at him, there were many contents in his body that he himself knew was very dangerous, and he didn't know the secrets that he didn't know, let alone what this blacksmith wanted to say next.

Blacksmith Zhang asked: "Maybe you don't know much about what you know, what you know, all of this, but do you believe it?" There's something even more terrifying hidden here! ”

He Ming looked at him, nodded seriously and said: "I believe that from the first time I saw you, I felt that you were different from us and us, and these days I have been even more certain, you are absolutely extraordinary, if I can learn some knowledge from you that is not passed down from the world, I will only be happy and grateful." ”

Blacksmith Zhang said: "Let's start with your unbearable smelted Wind Talisman, you should be able to see that it is not at all something that can be made by the ability of this era. ”

He Ming thought about it carefully, and then asked: "I really can't make this kind of talisman in my impression, so where does it come from?" Could it be that some higher existence directly taught technology and civilization to a certain race, but such a generational difference in technology could not completely change the status of that race. ”

Blacksmith Zhang said: "It is indeed possible for a more advanced existence in the other world to forcibly improve the technology, and it is not surprising that you can know this. But this amulet doesn't come from those, in our world, it used to be an extremely ordinary, random item that could be crafted at will. ”

He Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said, "How is it possible?" Ah, think about it, could it be said that there were more advanced technologies and civilizations in ancient times, but it was only because of many serious internal frictions that the inheritance was lost, and it became such a backward situation now? ”

Blacksmith Zhang stared at him, was silent for a while, and suddenly sighed:

"It's as if you already know everything, and you're basically right. It's just that the truth is slightly different from what you guessed, these technologies are indeed relics of ancient civilizations, but the civilization at that time did not die from internal friction. ”

He Ming said, "What's that?" I can't think of any other reason that will lead to the loss of civilization, if it was an invasion of monsters from another world, it would not be possible to get to this point, this world is still dominated by us humans. ”

Blacksmith Zhang said: "That's right, if it is a successful invasion of the other world, the dominance of the world will not be human's share at all. The loss of ancient civilizations is not caused by some monster invasion, and what happened next, you can hardly believe, but as someone who can accept this information, you must listen carefully! ”

He Ming looked at Blacksmith Zhang and didn't say anything, and motioned to listen to himself, more mysterious, history-related things He was originally very curious, but the other party's worries were superfluous.

"According to our records, it was at least four or five thousand years ago, and people developed to a very high level in all aspects through development and sheep.

"Relying on the abundant magic power in our world, we can make powerful magic power props, and through the assistance of technology, the physical fitness of human beings has been greatly improved, and the resources in the world, and the number of people who can survive in this small world have almost reached the limit.

"Devastating magical weapons make it impossible for wars to happen again, because entire civilizations are wiped out at the slightest move, and increasingly strained resource allocations become the root of the problem, in which case people begin to look beyond our world."

He Ming listened quietly, his first shocking discovery, compared to the ancient heroic legends that fascinated him, the technological civilization that surpassed this era actually made him want to stop.

However, as the height that can be reached reaches the apex, people are desperate to realize that whether it is high in the sky or in the deep sea, it is a place that human beings can never conquer, even if the body is tempered to perfection, when it reaches a certain height or depth, it will die, and at the same time, no protective props can play a role in that situation.

"So they turned their eyes to other directions again, in those days, the alien invaders who coveted the magic of this world had long since become the prey of their competition and enslavement, so people began to try to find the invaders' world in reverse through the way these prey came."

He Ming frowned, the otherworldly invaders he had come into contact with so far were all unimaginably powerful existences, even the Red Moon Demon who knew the most was still invincible to mortals after suffering a huge weakening!

How powerful is the civilization that can wantonly enslave these otherworldly creatures? And for what reason did they perish?

He didn't say it, but the confused look in his eyes had already allowed Blacksmith Zhang to guess what he wanted to say.

"What do you think was a powerful foreign invasion, or a civil war that was more than the world could bear, that brought it all to its death? No, it was the world itself that ultimately destroyed civilization completely, and it was only then that my ancestors determined that the world itself was self-conscious. ”

He Ming finally couldn't help but ask, "The consciousness of the world itself?" Isn't that a god? Why did he destroy a long-developed, hard-won civilization? ”
