Chapter 83: The Mystery of the Dragon
The contradiction between humans and dragons has been going on for a long time.
Judging from the current historical system, human civilization originated in 2140 BC.
At that time, human beings mastered the first magic technique, fire control.
The dawn of civilization was ignited, and humanity found its true path!
Before that, human beings had no civilization and no self, and it was not enough to step onto the stage of history, and it was the powerful dragon clan and the mysterious elven race that dominated this world.
It was an era known to historians as the 'Elves and Dragons' era.
Because of the difference in the way of survival between the two races, there has always been a huge contradiction, and the struggle has never stopped, and the human race has survived in the cracks, with heavy casualties.
Among them, especially the enslavement and oppression of the dragon clan!
After learning the first magic trick, human beings lurked for hundreds of years, expanding the magic system to the five systems of wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth, laying the cornerstone of elemental magic, and developing a powerful magic spell with this, so that the human race gained considerable power.
More than 100 years later, the Terrans rose up and concentrated their living forces to resist the enslavement of the dragons and the drive of the elves.
In 2004 before the era, the Terrans defeated the vanguard of the Dragons, symbolizing that mankind had truly gained the ability to confront the Dragons, marking the arrival of a new era.
In the struggle against the dragons and elves, the human race won a relative victory, and finally forced the dragon and the elves to sign a peace treaty, no longer restricting their development, human beings have since entered an era of rapid development, and the strong reproductive ability makes it quickly expand the land resources and become the master of the vast land.
But the contradiction between the human race and the dragon race has not really ended, in the next two thousand years, the friction between the two races continued, and the contradiction reached a commanding height during the war of the five races.
In the final analysis, it is natural that the oppression of the dragon clan was too fierce back then, and it is still vividly remembered in the history books.
In the underground square, Rheinfel looked at the stone sculpture in front of him, his brow furrowed.
The dragon clan oppressed the human race, and there are roots to be found, so this stone sculpture seems to have a basis.
But the problem is that this is not a dragon lair, but a so-called god relic.
It does not seem reasonable to have such stone sculptures in the territory of the 'gods'.
What's more, with Rheinfel's historical knowledge, he knows very well that there are no similar stone carvings among the dragons, and the specific reason is unknown, and the dragons seem to be reluctant to mention the history of oppression of humans, although the arrogance in their bones still makes them look down on humans.
And most of the information about God that mankind knows so far comes from the largest religious organization in the world: the Holy See!
In the theory of the Holy See, the gods are omnipotent, they created the world, they created the living beings, they created everything.
Although these theories do not stand up to scrutiny from a rigorous point of view, the 'relics of the gods' that have been unearthed from time to time allow the Holy See to justify itself.
Because of the propaganda of the Holy See, the claim of the relics of the gods has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people over time, and it has become an official rhetoric subtly, and many believers are also convinced of it.
Historians are skeptical, for there are too many doubts, but in any case, there is no doubt that there existed before the age of the Elves and Dragons, but where they came from and why they disappeared is a mystery for the ages.
The age of the Elves and Dragons can be traced back to 3705 BC, and the Elves agree that they were born at that time. As for how the elves were born, mankind has not yet reached a definite conclusion.
Compared to the elves, the history of the dragons is much longer, and judging from the many ancient fossil traces, they have existed for hundreds of thousands of years.
However, the history of the dragons is only a few thousand years!
The longest historical information of the dragons that can be obtained so far can only go back to more than 8,700 years before the era, and the written language of the dragons has been formed much earlier.
It seems that they can erase the history that preceded them, and the motives and purposes for doing so may have disappeared into the long river of history, and there is no way to study them.
Historians generally refer to the era before the 'Elves and Dragons' as the 'Lost Age', but the Holy Court Scriptures refer to it as the Age of the Gods!
"The gods have hidden themselves, not the dragons!"
This is the most widely circulated sentence of the Holy See's account of this period of history, which has caused countless disputes and discussions, but none of them have come to fruition.
Everything about God is a puzzle.
And the world has always hoped to find clues from the 'relics of the gods' to solve this historical mystery.
Compared with the world, Reinfel's purpose is purer, in order to revive Shirleya, he will do everything he can, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will pursue it.
Even if it is an ethereal god, he will explore it clearly!
What does it mean that this statue is so unreasonable?
In the so-called 'Age of the Gods', the dragons had already begun to oppress humanity, but that doesn't make sense of the statue's presence in the ruins of the gods.
Would a god on high put this kind of statue here, or is the statue incomplete and missing some key information?
Rheinfel glanced at the statue and saw the many signs of erosion on it, and always thought that this might be a possibility.
As he was in his reverie, the circular platform had fallen to the bottom, perfectly connected with the groove below, and there was no sound.
Everyone was amazed, after such a long time, this thing is still so sophisticated!
And at the moment when the discs were merged, the sculpture in front of it suddenly trembled and shone brightly.
The "buzzing ......" roared sharply, and the majestic momentum made the entire square tremble, making the hearts of everyone in the Witt family jump suddenly, almost to the throat.
This wave of turmoil spread to the stone wall, passing along the pulse of the earth, thousands of miles away.
On the west side of the wasteland, in the territory of the Dragon Song Kingdom, a tall barren mountain felt this unique pulse in the distance, and suddenly trembled, and opened a pair of eyes at the low end.
A hint of surprise floated in the vertical dark brown pupils, those were the eyes of a dragon!
"It's ...... His Holiness's disgusted breath...... "It muttered in a low voice, but did not stand up.
"The closest to there is ......," its pupils shrank, "he?"
The barren mountains shook, and the earth pulsated far away from the ground, passing through thousands of mountains and rivers, reaching the southern part of the wasteland of the Moro Kingdom.
In the endless wilderness, a black figure sat cross-legged, ragged and long, his hair rough and scattered, covering his face so that he could not see clearly.
He felt the message from the shaking of the barren mountains.
In the midst of his messy hair, his closed eyes snapped open, revealing straight, pitch-black pupils.
"Hmph!" he snorted coldly, the black qi on his body soared, and suddenly his body suddenly expanded, turning into a black dragon, raising the sky and roaring, and the dragon's roar shook the heavens and the earth.
Black Dragon!
Even among the mighty dragons, they are one of the most formidable!
It spread its wings, and the smoke and dust flew, as if it swept through the Eight Desolations, and rushed out suddenly.
And the direction it goes is where the relics of the gods are!
