Chapter Seventy-Four: The Black Death (Pace)
To explain here, some people say that I used the wrong word and said that the Black Death was not the final test of humanity.
Actually, what I'm saying is that the Black Death was 'part' of humanity's final trial! The enlightenment that represents the emergence of the theory of evolution!
So, I didn't make a mistake, it was just that someone misunderstood.
The Black Death was a major plague that broke out in Europe in 1348 and killed tens of millions of people and reduced the European population by one-third to one-half, making it the worst plague in human history.
And Li Na's identity as the final trial of mankind is [The End of the Eternal God Era], and he is also the representative of the [Theory of Evolution]!
After the Black Death, Europe was significantly improved, such as the liberation from feudalism, which gave many peasants a vision to go beyond the countryside. The more ambitious peasants set up new goals and flocked to the cities in droves to acquire technology and trade β i.e., the birth of the middle class.
Then there is freedom of thought and humanism, whether or not the basic knowledge of any medical existence has been applied to theology and spirituality. As priests and monks die like ordinary people, and there is no answer to why this horror happened, the church shows its own stupidity in the face of disaster, thus losing its credibility as the only way to God.
It was also the opportunity for the door of free thought to be opened, and in the next century, even the existence of God was questioned, opening the intellectual enlightenment.
The emergence of the theory of evolution is decided, and God is questioned, which means that the theory of creation is questioned!
At the same time, according to the setting of Hakoiwa, the Black Death was not a simple natural disaster, but was supported by the stars, implying a strong and absolute fate.
Originally, the emancipation of serfs was postponed until around the early 1900s. As a result, it hindered the development of ideas such as Enlightenment, liberalism, etc., and became the reason for the growth of dystopian ideas.
Thus, the spread of the Black Death, which began in the fourteenth century, led to a drastic decline in serfdom. Reduced productivity. Eighty million victims. This prematurely raised the social status of the serfs, a plague that could lead to the extinction of mankind (Europe), but ultimately changed the future of mankind!
The spread of the Black Death, the greatest trial of humanity (remember, the greatest, not the final), is an indispensable event that interrupts the future of connecting the "closed world" and promotes the evolution of primates.
Therefore, as the [Theory of Evolution] itself, even if it has not yet become the [Final Trial of Mankind], he can exercise the power of [Black Death] to promote the emergence and development of the [Theory of Evolution] in advance through the rules of the box garden world.
That is to say, Pester is in a sense Clyde's subordinate.
Well, that's it for the explanation and water word count! The following text!
- Boundary wall, stage area. Grand Festival Operation Headquarters, VIP Room.
"So, now start the Gift Game [TheΒ· PIEDΒ· PIPERΒ·ofΒ· HAMELIN]. Black Rabbit announced in a serious tone.
Opposite the group of Sixteen Nights, sat the girl in a black and white spotted dress, while Wei Xi in a military uniform and Ratting in white stood on either side of her.
(Oh?) Are the two next to it [Ratting] and [Weser River]? Also, I heard Li Na say that it was [Shotrom (Tempest)], right? So the rest of the person is...... Forget it, think about it later. οΌ
Sixteen Nights, who followed Ren, stopped thinking about it, it was supposed to be Li Na who came, but he himself pushed it to Sixteen Nights for some reason of 'not wanting to say'.
The crowded room is a VIP room with luxurious decorations. The guests who were supposed to be invited don't appear to be in the game and aren't currently present.
In order to negotiate for the reciprocal game, of course, it could not be held in the reception room, so it was decided to use this VIP room.
"First of all, I want to ask the [organizer] about the ...... of this game."
"Nothing is missing."
The Spotted Girl interrupted the Black Rabbit and said disdainfully, "There is nothing missing or improper about this game, it is a game that was held after the seal of the White Yaksha and the conditions for cracking the game were all perfected and planned, and there is no reason to be considered. β
Although the spotted girl had calm eyes, her tone of voice was quite categorical.
ββ¦β¦ So just deal with it? People's rabbit ears are connected to the center of the box garden, even if you lie, you will be exposed immediately? β
"Hmm. Also, under this premise, I would like to propose one thing first. We're now forced to interrupt the game because we've been wronged, in other words, you're doing frivolous interference with the sacred game - you know what I mean? β
The girl looked at Sandora with calm eyes, and Sandora gritted her teeth unwillingly.
This means in case there is no wrongdoing...... Have to start the game again on favorable terms for the organizers? β
"That's right, let's negotiate the new rules later."
ββ¦β¦ I see, Black Rabbit. β
"Yes...... Yes. β
The black rabbit, who seemed to be a little shaken, nodded. She probably didn't expect the other party to show such a firm attitude. The black rabbit looked up at the sky and shook its ears slightly.
During this period, Sixteen Nights whispered to Mandela, who was standing behind, "I say, what level of things are considered improper situations in the game?" β
ββ¦β¦ You don't even know about this kind of thing, and you dare to come along? β
Spit! Mandela smacked his tongue fiercely, if he wants this guy to come, it is better to let Li Na come.
The three-inch tongue directly refuted (scolded) all these guys!
"You should also know that the lack of ability and knowledge on the part of the participants does not mean that the game itself is lacking. Whether it is ordered to kill the undead race or stipulated to fly, it is impossible for the person who has his own problems. In this case, even if you need the knowledge of the inheritance of "The Pied Piper of Hamel" in order to crack the game, it is [the fault of the participants who do not understand]. β
"Oh? It's really unreasonable. β
"If you want to say that there may be a lack in this game, the first thing is the seal of the White Yaksha. Although the contract document states that she has [participated], she cannot [participate] in the war. This cannot be ignored, and there should be a clear record of the main reasons for this. β
"However, the only thing that came out was the sentence "Break the False Inheritance and Establish the Authentic Inheritance."
The conversation between the two was interrupted.
The Black Rabbit meditated for a while - and lowered his head in embarrassment.
ββ¦β¦ They received an answer from the box. There is nothing missing or wrong in this game. The seal of Lord White Yasha is also based on proper methods. β
The sound of everyone gritting their teeth sounded in the VIP room, and now the participants will be at a disadvantage.
"It's a result of course. So, let's leave the rules as they are, the question is the date when the game will restart. β
"Date? Do you want to do it the next day? β
Sandora was surprised, as were the people around her.
Because this is tantamount to giving time to the participants who are clearly at a disadvantage, this is a natural reaction.
After all, judging from the current situation, it would not be surprising that even if the other party asked to start the game again on the spot immediately.
"I'm going to ask the judgment controller, what is the slowest date to start again?"
"The most ...... Is it the slowest? Belch...... Take this time as an example...... A month, right? β
"Well, a monthβ"
"Wait!"
"Wait a minute!"
Sixteen Nights and Ren spoke at the same time, and their tones were extremely urgent.
ββ¦β¦ What the? Can't get enough time for you? β
"No, thank you very much, but it depends...... I can wait, little master, you can talk first. β
"Good. Then I'm going to ask the organizers. I heard that the men and women around you are [Ratting] and [Wes], and there is another member [Shutrom]. So what is your name...... Is it the Black Death? β
"The Black Death, you say?"
Everyone's expressions were distorted with surprise, and they looked at the spotted girl together.
This is also a natural reaction, if it weren't for Li Na's vague reminder before they came, it is estimated that the two of them would have thought about it for a long time.
