Chapter 350: The Three Great Epics
Seeing the content of this task, Shen Feng couldn't help frowning.
This mission is a bit of a lot.
Fortunately, the system should also understand his current difficulties, and know that it is really difficult to restore the sea level and revive human civilization, so those are selective tasks and are not enforced.
Otherwise, he would have been able to hang himself directly on this pendant now, saving the energy of the game system.
After all, he doesn't have a gray tide to drive now, and the network in this world has long been interrupted, and it is not an information society at all, and his silicon-based brain can't play a role.
Speaking of which, in addition to being more resistant to fighting, he is an enhanced version of an ordinary person, and he can't fight those huge exotic monsters at all.
I can only slowly figure it out.
The first three tasks, which are mainly investigative tasks, are relatively much easier.
But what is this beast gold?
The Super Giant Mechanical Armor technology should be the easiest to obtain, after all, I've heard Old Bill say that those damaged Super Giant War Armor still have relics to search for.
Shen Feng was thinking about it, when a crisp and pleasant ringtone came, and the troubadour had already taken out a string of glass lenses threaded together, shook it gently, and then began to chant the three epics in the fragrance of ambergris.
The first is "The Sinking Epic of the World".
"The ship of the world sails in the universe of eternal night,
Giving birth to a lowly creature called a human being,
The creatures sail in the darkness with fire,
Thinking that they have mastered the eternal light,
Until the beast from hell tore a corner of the ship,
An endless tsunami swept everything ......"
First it was an introduction, and then there was something about the emergence of wormholes on the seabed, followed by a rapid rise in sea levels and the inundation of human civilization.
Shen Feng listened carefully at this time, although the so-called "Epic of the Sinking of the World" has undergone some artistic processing, there will not be much omission in the record of the main events.
Many of the things narrated in the early stage of the epic can correspond to what Shen Feng learned.
Including the destruction of the two waves of the Eagle Nation's fleets at the beginning, the giant exotic beast poked out a tentacle and destroyed the two aircraft carrier formations, and the power of the electromagnetic railgun of the Chinese fleet was gradually weakened, and the major laboratories around the world began to study the tissue fragments of the alien beast and so on.
There are even accounts of exotic beasts attacking San Francisco.
Of course, in this epic, the aircraft carriers in the human fleet are not called aircraft carriers, they are called island ships.
And the electromagnetic railgun has a flowery name for the Staff of Thunder.
According to the "Epic of the Sinking of the World", when the exotic beast attacked San Francisco, a strange force once stopped and defeated the beast.
It's just that the giant beast itself is a "small beast" that is only three thousand meters long.
After this small victory, the "entrance to hell", that is, the spatial wormhole, continued to expand, and eventually an even more powerful world beast came.
The Earth's sea level began to rise rapidly at a rate of several meters per day.
A tsunami swept coastal port cities around the world.
At the beginning of human civilization, there was only one countermeasure, which was to build dams and coastal fortresses to defend against the attacks of those world beasts through various turrets and missiles.
It was only then discovered that the behemoths had no interest in destroying human cities.
It is enough for them to just wait for the sea level to rise.
The human side has also found the reason for the rise in sea level, one is because of the continuous influx of water from the other side of the space wormhole, and the other reason is that the giant beasts that continue to enter this world are too large and discharge the sea water, causing the sea level to rise.
Of course, the main reason is the first.
Humanity has changed its strategy and begun to take the initiative, while also preparing to build a giant generation ship to allow some of the sparks of human civilization to escape from the earth.
And those super-giant war armors, now known as holy armor, suddenly appeared from the later stages of the war.
These super-giant war armors gathered almost all the remaining industrial forces and resources of the entire human civilization, and finally exhausted all their efforts to create thirty-three super-giant war armors.
The smallest is 1,000 meters high, and the largest is 5,000 meters, which is basically 33 metal mountains.
At the same time, because the countries and environments that create these super giant war armors are different, and the enemies they face are also different, these war armors themselves do not have a particularly uniform style, but different forms.
The Super Giant War Armor once achieved good results, destroying many exotic behemoths, but the number was too small, and in the end it was still broken by each one and gradually withdrew from the stage of history.
It's beyond the limits of what human civilization can bear.
In the end, whether it was the War Fortress Project, or the Super Giant War Armor Project, or the God's Finger Space-based Electromagnetic Railgun Project, etc., etc., it still did not change the fact that the whole world was submerged and human civilization was destroyed.
Human civilization was completely swallowed up by the tsunami, ushering in a long rainy season, and the global tsunami and heavy rain and flood lasted for a whole year.
When everything finally dispersed, the remnants of humanity became abandoned by civilization, wandering alone in the vast sea.
Time passed, generations died and were born, and for that once powerful human civilization, only the poetry of the troubadour was left.
The song "The Sinking Epic of the World" was sung for almost an hour, and finally ended with the sentence "The brilliant light has passed, the sea has drowned everything, human beings are trapped on the islands of the world, and everyone is an island...... ".
The troubadour wiped the sweat from his wheat-colored skin, his small nose twitched, he sniffed the smell of ambergris, and seemed to have the spirit again, and began to chant the second epic poem to Shen Feng.
"The Heroic Epic of the Savior".
Some of the plots of the two epics overlap slightly, but "The Epic of the Sinking of the World" focuses on the suffering of the entire human civilization, while "The Heroic Epic of the Savior" focuses on the tragic battles in the process of the destruction of the world, and the dazzling light of human civilization bursting out at the last moment when it is about to be submerged.
Especially the organization that once led the entire human civilization to find hope - the Salvation Army.
"He spoke before the wheat field where the hope of mankind is,
Every word shines like a star,
The Salvation Army remembers the teachings of their Lord,
Burn yourself into a torch,
Illuminating the way forward for human civilization,
Even if the road ahead is a black misty hell,
I will not hesitate to move forward ......"
Shen Feng's eyes lit up, and he understood that what this "Savior Heroic Epic" was talking about was Shen Feng and the Salvation Army in this water world!
It's just that they are obviously the same "self" in the Gray Tide world, and they have also failed.
But you still have to listen carefully to what happened, know how you died in this world, and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
The troubadour's tone became fierce at this point, and through the chant, he quickly recounted the past of the Salvation Army of this world.
After the Battle of San Francisco, the wormhole continued to expand, and new exotic monsters began to appear.
Humans have all retreated from the sea turtles back to land, and the exotic beasts have begun to travel to human cities on land and devour humans as a delicious snack.
In the beginning, humans could only rely on the coastal fortress plan to passively defend against those exotic behemoths.
During that time, hundreds of nuclear bombs were dropped into the sea alone, but most of them did not help.
Moreover, the sea level has been rising, and the coastal cities are quickly becoming empty cities, and the coastal forts that have just been built must be continuously raised and strengthened.
At this time, let alone blocking the space wormhole on the seabed, it has become very difficult to even go to sea.
Just as humanity was in retreat, the Salvation Army finally came together to find a new research result.
A new element extracted from the body of an exotic behemoth, called "Monster", contains powerful controllable energy, and itself is a catalyst and stabilizer for fusion reactions, and humans have mastered controlled nuclear fusion technology in one fell swoop.
And this brand-new element also has a relatively easy-to-understand name "beast gold".
The Salvation Army also relied on its excellent performance in previous battles and the discovery and extraction of "beast gold" to come to the stage from behind the scenes.
It was only then that the world finally discovered that the organization, called the "Salvation Army", had such a huge power.
A large number of politicians and elites from various countries have joined the Salvation Army or become peripheral members of it.
The knowledge of the World Beast and the space wormhole within the Salvation Army as a whole is beyond the knowledge of the United Nations itself.
And their core character is a mysterious existence known as the "savior".
After the propaganda of the Salvation Army, people learned that the Salvation Man and the Salvation Army he led had secretly saved the world many times.
The one who killed the exotic beast in the port of San Francisco was the mysterious savior.
For a time, the Salvation Army and their savior were in the limelight, and the Salvation Army, a mysterious organization that suddenly appeared, took control of the remnants of the entire human civilization without even much effort, replacing the United Nations and the joint body formed by various countries.
Wholeheartedly lead human civilization to save itself.
At this time, as the sea level rose, those world beasts seemed to have temporarily given up harassing the remnant continent where humans lived.
It gave human civilization a golden respite.
Soon, using this powerful new element, humanity began a variety of new strategic attempts.
Super giant generation ships that have escaped from Earth, super giant war armor that declares war on behemoths, new and efficient space-based electromagnetic railguns, and even the creation of undersea cities, and so on.
It's just that the emergence of beast gold has also brought new problems and new contradictions.
Although the Salvation Army has a mysterious savior as its commander, the commander rarely gives direct orders, and instead allows the Salvation Army soldiers to act on their own.
At this time, faced with the fate of human civilization, the Salvation Army began to split!
To be precise, excluding a few small factions, the entire Salvation Army is mainly divided into two factions.
Detachment and resistance.
The breakaway faction advocates using the beast gold that can be extracted to build a large number of giant generation spaceships on the basis of controllable nuclear fusion reactors, so that human civilization can gradually escape from the earth and go to space and even to the moon to find a way out.
After all, you can't defeat those world beasts, if you can hide out, you can do it.
According to preliminary estimates, with the existing industrial capacity in the world, about 10 million people can be transported into space.
The rest can only be left to fend for themselves.
The view of the resistance is that although it is possible to build a giant era spaceship and leave the earth, human civilization is far from ready, and it is impossible to build a large-scale eternal ecosphere, and these human beings who go into space are still a dead end.
On the contrary, only by fighting against the odds, using beast gold to build the strongest super giant war armor, and killing all these world beasts, can human civilization have a glimmer of life.
After all, the previous battle examples showed that the World Beast could still be destroyed.
The industrial capacity of human civilization is limited and destined to support only the ideas of one faction.
In the desperate situation at that time, the detachment and resistance factions even broke out several fierce battles for their respective beliefs and also to save human civilization.
In the same room, a lot of people died.
In this case, what they want most is the support of the commander-in-chief.
Everyone thinks that the commander-in-chief is on their side, and their actions are to carry out the commander's will.
Only in the end they all found out that they were wrong.
And the wrong one couldn't be had.
The Commander-in-Chief is not a member of the secession faction, nor is he a member of the Resistance faction.
He belonged to the Raiders.
Break into the UY star field of the Shield constellation, the lair of those world beasts, completely destroy it, and blow it up!
"Gan ......" heard his own description of this world in "The Heroic Epic of the Savior", and Shen Feng couldn't help but scold.
Is he so fierce in this world?
