''I'm sorry, Your Majesty, the Elven Empire... It doesn't exist anymore. ‘’

When Lulia heard Epheris's words, her mood instantly dropped, and her face became very bad.

Yes, times have changed, the era of elves has passed, humanity has climbed to the top, and the once powerful elven empire is torn apart, no matter which elven race, it has lost the strength to restore its former glory. Although this is a process and has nothing to do with Lulia herself, in front of an elf queen from the era of elf prosperity, as a descendant, she is still full of guilt.

"It doesn't matter, it's been tens of thousands of years, and even if it's an elf, it's hard to support it." When glory exceeds the capacity of our civilization, falls are inevitable. ‘’

Efrise looked calm, as if she had been prepared.

''Humanity, short-lived and active, each generation renewing the minds of the previous generation, with enormous desires and ambitions that no other race possesses. In our time, they are backward and timid, but their qualities are unmistakable. We had predicted that in many years' time, the age of the elves would fade out of history, and that they would take our place as they changed and became more active. ‘’

Speaking of this, Efflies glanced at Zeng Qiang.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, and it's normal for these changes to occur. Nothing lasts forever, only change doesn't stop. When the next 10,000 years come, who knows what other civilizations will rise in the world. We are children of nature, and all we can do is adapt to this age. ‘’

Zeng Qiang looked at the ancient elf queen in front of him and never spoke. He still didn't believe that this ancient remnant clan had accepted the new era so quickly.

''Well, if you're interested in the knowledge repository here, I can tell you all about it. But I also want to see the outside world, tens of thousands of years ago, I want to see what the world is like now. ‘’

Efrise stroked the texture of the wall, her eyes shining with a strange light.

...........

''I didn't expect that after tens of thousands of years, the trees in the big forest are still so prosperous. Those scholars also claimed that the Origin Forest would become a great desert after 10,000 years, and they had prepared so many things to replenish water, but now it seems that they are still so unreliable. ‘’

In the middle of the forest, Efrise sat on a carriage full of gold patterns that could move on her own, looking up at the towering trees, and a smile curled up at the corners of her mouth. At this time, her body was no longer the same dress as before, but a golden robe. Under the sunlight, the elven queen's body looked dazzling. And the long golden hair was scattered on her shoulders, rolling like golden waves in the breeze.

''Your Majesty, I'm curious about how you have managed to make people survive 10,000 years without aging, and the current continental humans are completely unable to do this.

Next to this golden "carriage", Zeng Qiang held the elven books that had just been bracketed from the wall by the queen, full of ancient elven characters and equations (yes, those patterns are the outstanding achievements of ancient elven mathematicians, and the information of civilization recorded in algebraic equations and geometric operations), and asked very curiously.

Lulia, on the other hand, stared intently at the ancient words, understanding the meaning.

''Well, it's normal, time sometimes drowns a lot of things, and civilization and knowledge are no exception. Therefore, we use this kind of creation that can experience time to retain the inheritor, that is, me, to pass on the knowledge, so that our civilization can still be understood even after tens of thousands of years. ‘’

Effelis reached out and stroked her blonde hair and sighed.

''I was the first and the last, and although it was a great momentum at the time, it will be erased from history, as it is now. As for that thing, we honestly don't know its structure, it's only half a creation of elves, and its core comes from a gift from another world. ‘’

Speaking of this, she glanced at Zeng Qiang and showed a strange smile:

''Just like you, Otherworldly. ‘’

Zeng Qiang was shocked by this sentence, and the book in his hand almost fell. Lulia gave him a strange look and asked if he was okay.

Zeng Qiang understood that the sentence just now was said to himself, and it was a spiritual communication, and only he could hear it.

''You know?'' How was it discovered? ‘’

Zeng Qiang quietly turned the page of the book, attracting Lulia's attention, and he also came up with this sentence in his head, and it reached Ephyllis like a world call.

''We've met visitors from other worlds and we've learned a lot from them. ‘’

The Elven Queen spoke suddenly, and everyone present could hear her.

''Our ancestors met the gods at the beginning of civilization, and she came down from heaven with snow-white wings. She blesses our people and imparts magic and knowledge to us so that we can communicate with nature. When she left, all the elves saluted her, and her idols blessed her ancestors for a thousand years. ‘’

Later, some people came down from the sky in large ships made of steel, and the stars were burning with fire, and they almost died when they landed. They dress strangely and know little about magic. But they are so knowledgeable, and the oldest, wisest and wisest know not a tenth of what they know. They lived in our homeland and our ancestors for a year, they taught us to smelt metals, they taught us to calculate with numbers, and they built houses with numbers. They left behind a great deal of knowledge that we have spent hundreds of years not fully grasping.

Lulia and the other soldiers looked up, listening curiously to the queen's words.

''When I was very young, my father once saw a group of monster-like creatures, they resembled the devil of human legend, the destroyer of elven mythology. They were huge, with flames burning on their bodies and sharp horns growing on their heads, and the horror of their looks was completely indescribable. Almost all the elves thought that these people who came out of the portal came from the abyss, believing that they would kill us all and devour everything we had. ‘’

But they did not attack us, although they were terrible in appearance and powerful, but they were a people who loved to explore and seek knowledge, they shared knowledge with us, they observed the stars in the sky together, they observed the rocks and metals in the earth, they were rude, but civilization was very prosperous. As they left, they left behind a gift, according to them, a marvelous instrument that was a masterpiece of their civilization, with which creatures could travel through time and awaken in the future with little cost of life. In return, we designed the housing for such an instrument, which doubled its durability. And I, just lying there, have gone through tens of thousands of years, and have come to the present. ‘’

The queen stopped narrating, but Zeng Qiang could still hear her voice.

''It's not the first time we've dealt with visitors from another world, my friend. We talked to some civilizations, and we fought with some of them, all of which are lost in history, but that doesn't mean we will really forget. No matter what kind of civilization you come from, what kind of world you come from, I can see that you have no ill intentions, that is the summary of thousands of years of experience. ‘’

''Please continue your actions, I can't change anything, but I can be a witness, and I hope we can all stand through the test of time.'' ‘’
