And this dark age is also divided into two periods.

The early Dark Age refers to the period when all the outstanding cultivators at the end of the Age of Empires fought against the demons together, and after that, all the people absconded to the three major cities, and lived in the three major cities, through the three major cities, using these three cities as the last base, fighting for the last survival of the people.

Of course, this part is the history that most people are familiar with, and it is also the history that is taught in ordinary books.

Through a variety of wild histories and field explorations, Lu Lin in his previous life learned a history that was different from what the world knew.

As far as he knew, in fact, according to the strength that the imperial era could have at that time, it was still possible to resist the invasion of the demons, but at that time, the internal strife among the people was very serious.

The ancestors of the Eight Great Families relied on their own courage and their own power to snatch their own piece of the world from the hands of the Hao Empire, which led to the advent of the imperial era.

Therefore, many small families who rely on crooked ways are red-eyed, and they think that feng shui will take turns and come to my house next year. The Hao empire fell, and these empires rose...... Then these empires fall, and they will rise.

However, the Imperial Age maintained the ties and competitiveness of the empires because of the mutual restraint and competition between them.

No matter how much wind and waves are stirred, the stability of the imperial era is still difficult to shake.

But at this time, a powerful foreign enemy appeared: the demons.

Under the invasion of the demons, all the empires in the imperial era gathered to fight, but these small families who only knew crooked ways took the opportunity to spread rumors everywhere, saying that everyone in the imperial era could not fight against the demons.

Under their rumors, more and more people began to waver, began to question and began to be afraid.

In the end, in the face of people's strong demands, the imperial leaders of the Imperial Era could only agree to cut their defenses and let everyone flee.

Originally, according to the policy of the leaders of the empire many times, all the people were soldiers. All of them fight against the demons together and win in the end.

If all the people had persevered in accordance with their combat policy, the chances of winning the war would have been quite large.

After all, because the empires at that time got along with each other in a peaceful year, many years of stability brought people incomparable confidence and comfort, but also brought people enough strength to resist the war. Therefore, in the early days of the war, the combined armies of various empires have always been at a disadvantage when dealing with demons, but this is not because of the lack of strength, but because the combined armies of each empire lack knowledge and experience of war, and the combined armies formed by various empires also lack trust in each other and experience in cooperation.

But after arriving, because of the sufficient material and anti-war capabilities, in fact, the combined armies of various empires have slowly turned the tide of the war.

But because people were blinded by the words of those who only knew crooked ways, they had to withdraw from the battlefield under people's constant demands, condemnations and even insults.

These people fought at the forefront of the war for the sake of the people, but they were constantly attacked from behind by these people who only knew how to hide behind the city wall and lay in the arms of women humming and chirping.

"You can't win. "We're going to lose. "Let's not waste our hard-earned money on such meaningless things!"

What's more, it is even said that these people are using their own interests and hobbies to waste their time and lives on war; some people say that this is actually a conspiracy of the major empires, in fact, the major empires have long been in contact with the demons, and they have acted and directed such a play, in order to make them come up with more materials and money.

More and more people continued to protest, demanding to leave the city walls, asking for permission to leave the Imperial protection, to leave the Imperial control.

They call it "the freedom that man is born to enjoy."

Under the stupid minds of these fools, fewer and fewer people are willing to pay taxes, and fewer and fewer people are willing to contribute to this war. In the end, only those who participated in the war and were not dead believed in the Empire's practices.

Even those whose loved ones died in this war, they blamed the Empire for its actions, believing that the Empire had pushed their relatives into the war again and again for its own selfish desires.

In the end, the empire became completely isolated and helpless in this matter, and had no choice but to agree to the request of those villains, agreed that everyone could not participate in the war, agreed that everyone could escape on their own, and agreed to the policy of not fighting with the demons as much as possible.

And the result of this is that the demons are more rampant and people are fleeing in all directions.

Those who escaped from the protection of the empire had not enjoyed the joy of the so-called "freedom" outside the city for a long time, and they were attacked by the demons one by one...... And the rule of the empire, because of the unacceptable compromises and concessions, gradually became dead in name.

Encountering the surprise attack of the demons, they also tried to use their personal strength to fight against ...... But when the people reacted and realized that the threat of the demons was completely unsolvable by themselves, they wanted to return to the protection of the Empire, only to find that the Empire no longer existed in their indifference. And those despicable villains before wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to come out, but because they didn't have the strength to rule and lead the army, they died and fled, and they could only be insulted by people in the end.

That's what stupid people look like.

I only know how to see the interests in front of me, and I only hear those words that talk about the interests in front of me now, but I can't see the protective shield behind my own interests, and I can't see the future of my own interests.

In order to avoid a small stone, he broke his protective shield, but he was eventually killed by a meteorite. When they really found out that they were about to face a meteorite disaster, they found that their protective shield had long since ceased to exist, and the people who had egged them on before were actually just paper lanterns.

That's stupidity.

In this way, the far-sighted people, the resourceful and powerful empire, abandoned by the stupid people, and the words of the villain, who only know the side ways, are admired.

It's up to you to do what you do.

In the end, the far-sighted people also embarked on the road of escape, and the mighty imperial walls were overthrown, and the stupid people could only lament the unsatisfactory life and the play of God, but they were completely unaware of their own ignorance, and those villains either continued to tell bigger lies cheekily, or were spurned by countless people.

That's the stupidity that turns out.
