Chapter 682: The Secret of the Age of Miracles (1)
Legend has it that there is a treasure hidden in the Evermont Islands.
A mysterious treasure with many opinions.
Some people believe that this treasure was buried by a pirate group in ancient times, and that it was the treasure of a rich country; Some believe that this treasure is a precious relic of some miraculous era; Some people believe that this treasure is a magical place that can greatly increase the strength of magicians; There are various other theories, but no one can provide strong evidence to prove their authenticity, in fact, to this day, not to mention the secrets hidden in the Evermont Islands, even the location of the Evermont Islands, few people know, and the craze for treasure hunting on the Holy Island is long gone.
Of course, Jian Chen also knew that there was a treasure in the Evermont Islands.
He had heard more than once from Tren about the Evermont Islands and their treasures, the coveting of the Evermont Islands by the Bracada Kingdom and the necromancers, and the fierce battle between the Sun God Cult and the Moon God Cult for the islands.
Chen Jian is actually a layman, he is naturally quite keen on this kind of treasure, but it is not his character to enter the treasure mountain but return empty-handed, besides, no matter what this legendary treasure is, it is very beneficial to his future development, so early on, he has already started his treasure hunt in the Evermont Islands that will definitely make countless pretenders who want to set foot in the Evermont Islands, but have never been able to enter.
It's just that this treasure hunt that has continued to this day has not made any progress so far, and a large number of people sent by Chen Jian have turned over almost every inch of the Evermont Islands, and even some of the shallower seabed nearby have been searched a few times, but except for finding a few ruins of ancient buildings that have long been deserted, which look older than the Temple of the Sun and the Temple of the Moon, and may be the remains of the Age of Miracles, according to Tren, there is no other harvest.
And the ruins of those ancient buildings, when Tren was empty, led people to search for a long time, but there were no valuable discoveries.
Because of this relationship, Chen Jian almost almost thought that legends were always just legends, and that there was no so-called treasure in the Evermont Islands, or because Tanan promised Chen Jian that he would tell him the secrets of the Evermont Islands, that he regained his confidence.
However, to this day, before meeting Tanan, Chen Jian still can't guess what the so-called treasure hidden on the island will be.
Jian Chen didn't think that what was hidden on the island was just some pirate treasure, this kind of thing might attract some adventurers, but it would never alarm big forces like the Bracada Kingdom or the Dia Necromancer, and the Sun God Cult and the Moon God Cult should not be short of such a little money.
And looking at the actions of the Bracada Kingdom and the necromancer several times, it seems unlikely that what is hidden on the island is just something that can improve the individual strength of the magician, Chen Jian thinks that if it is just like this, it is not enough to make the Bracada Kingdom and the necromancer so aggressive, unless this function can be collected.
Therefore, he is more inclined to the possibility that there are some relics of the Miracle Age hidden on the island, and the time spent on this magical continent is not short, Chen Jian now feels more and more deeply that compared to the current silent era, what a glorious era the Miracle Age is, because everything that has been handed down from the Miracle Age is still an existence that people can only look up to in the current silent era.
Not to mention anything else, just the dragon king's divine power, just that pistol, in today's day, are still regarded as artifacts by people, not to mention copying it, even the principle of its production and operation, no one can figure it out, the gap between the civilizations of the two eras can almost be said to be very different.
Even Chen Jian, who came from the earth, was in deep awe of the Miracle Age, he didn't know why such a developed civilization was devastated, making this world civilization of sword and magic regress to the current level, but he knew very well that if this Miracle Age really existed, its civilization level would definitely surpass the Earth before he crossed over, reaching a level that he couldn't imagine.
Therefore, Chen Jian has always been very concerned about the treasures on the Evermont Islands, and even ordered the protection of the ancient buildings and ruins that were discovered, so as to prevent them from being inadvertently destroyed and losing possible key clues.
Now that he heard that Tanan had linked the Evermont Islands with the Doomsday Blade and the Ice Sword, which were said to be made by the technology left over from the Miracle Era, Jian Chen was even more sure that his guess was correct, and the things hidden in the Evermont Islands were indeed related to the Age of Miracles.
In addition, he was also eager to verify the credibility of Tanan's claim that the Doomsday Blade and the Ice Sword could destroy the world, so after Tanan's request, he didn't say a word and immediately asked Acereina to start arranging the trip.
Then, not long after, through the two-way portal in New Mig Fort, under the escort of an elite royal guard, Chen Jian took Moriel, Esrena, and Tanan to the Evermont Islands.
Riding on the giant poisonous scorpion lion specially prepared by Chen Jian for himself, looking around from the air at the astonishing changes in the archipelago that had been seriously damaged by the flames of war ignited by the two major sects of the Sun God Sect and the Moon God Sect, and finally caused the undead creatures to run rampant, Tanan was even more emotional.
Chen Jian is also a little emotional, since the unification of Negan, on the one hand, out of the protection of the clues about the treasure on the Evermont Islands from being destroyed, on the other hand, he is also worried that the Evermont Islands may hide some hidden dangers, after all, the two major sects inexplicably abandoned the island overnight, so Chen Jian began the great migration of the residents of the Evermont Islands to Negan, and now the Evermont Islands have long since lost the lively scene of the past, except for the garrison, there are no other residents on the island, and most of the houses that are still brand new are now vacant, Or it was used for other purposes by the Ntagrean Army.
This made Chen Jian, who likes nostalgia, couldn't help but feel a little sad, he was very inopportune to think of the bits and pieces he spent on the island, in addition to Hammondale, this is another land that he has a deep memory, it is on this archipelago that he began to build his empire, began to soar into the sky, in a sense, this is his new one.
Sighing and putting away his chaotic thoughts, Jian Chen smiled and asked Tanan, "Mr. Tanan, when you come here, you should always tell me what is hidden on the island, right?" This is a question that has been bothering me for a long time."
Jian Chen's question made some of the people around him who heard him prick up their ears, even Acerena and Morryll.
Tanan, who was looking around at the changes in the Evermont Islands, also smiled, but even if he was laughing, the sadness between his brows still lingered: "In fact, there are no treasures in the Evermont Islands, this is actually just an ordinary island group with a pleasant climate, but in the Age of Miracles, this was once an extremely important transportation hub"
Saying that, Tanan identified the direction where everyone was, and then led the stunned people to fly towards a certain big island, Chen Jian and the others hurriedly followed, for convenience, this time the people brought by Chen Jian all had the ability to fly, and all of them rode on the poisonous scorpion lion.
"Maybe it's a little strange to say this, but let me start from the beginning, everything started from the Age of Miracles" While hurrying, Tanan began to explain everything to Jian Chen and the others, "Why is the Age of Miracles called the Age of Miracles, everyone knows it, but why it is called the Age of Silence now, few people know it, I guess you don't know very well, right?" ”
"The reason why the Age of Miracles is so glorious is that at that time people got a lot of technology and magic from the Chosen One that we couldn't imagine at all, and then one day, people suddenly lost contact with the Chosen One, and in a certain historical document that you haven't read, there are some records of this, which says, 'No matter how much we call, the Chosen have not responded to us in any way, and what we have heard from it is a dead silence, perhaps because of our arrogance, the destruction we have brought upon ourselves, so that the Chosen ones are no longer willing to favor us, and we have been abandoned by them', so that one day onwards, people called that year the first year of silence, and the age of silence began, and this is the origin of the age of silence. ”
"I don't know exactly what happened at that time, but according to historical records, during that period, the world we live in had a large-scale upheaval, people used the powerful weapons of those miracle times to attack each other, the Wyvern Desert and the Ghost Swamp on the continent of Enlos were born, and the Bairders on the continent of Erathia was also desolate, and there were many other kinds of destruction, the population was greatly reduced, the knowledge and technology were greatly lost, and some reasonable people turned to the Chosen for help, I hoped that the Chosen would intervene to end this turmoil, but there was no response."
"The Evermont Islands were also devastated in that upheaval. In the Age of Miracles, the position of the Evermont Islands in this world is very important, the people at that time built many advanced portals on the Evermont Islands, used to connect the world, these portals, some to the continent of Erathia, some to the continent of Enros, some to the continent of Jadamy, and some, are to some planes that we do not know, including even the elemental world where the elemental family is located, through the Evermont Islands, people can easily shuttle around the place, At that time, the level of development of magic is unimaginable to us today, in fact, the elemental race is just a fighting race created by the magicians of the Age of Miracles. ”
