005 10,000 years
At the end of November 2177 in the Gregorian calendar, a large resource gathering base on the moon was destroyed by an unknown attack, followed by a large spaceship that had just been built in its prototype, which was shot down by an unknown attack, and together with countless red cosmic materials from the orbit of the lunar satellite, directly crashed into the earth.
These unidentified materials are all crystal-like long diamond-shaped, even if they rub against the atmosphere during the fall, reducing part of their volume, but most of the material still falls on the earth, leaving large or small craters on the earth. Every day, tens of thousands of such materials will attack the earth from the lunar orbit, and the dust raised will obscure the entire earth from the sun in three days, and such an intensive attack will continue for a whole year, and there will not be a complete building on the surface of the entire earth.
A year later, the frequency of cosmic material falling has dropped dramatically, but there are still hundreds of unidentified particles falling on top of every shelter in the world every day. Although one or two times will not have much impact on the Vault, the number of attacks increases, and slowly, the terrain around the Vault begins to change, because of this, the new humans who stay in the Vault have to come out of it and face the living environment on the surface that has become extremely harsh.
The time when the unknown material attacked the earth lasted for 1,500 years, and the ice age lasted for more than 2,000 years, even if they were as strong as the new humans, they died one by one in this catastrophe of lack of food, lack of sunlight, and lack of temperature, but even so, the new humans still maintained the group order for about 150 years, but as the environment became more and more harsh and the resources became less and less, the survival instinct in their DNA finally overwhelmed. Obedience' this hidden DNA information, a large-scale outbreak of new human infighting, for resources, for survival, they form different groups, fight each other, the number of new humans is getting smaller and smaller.
Two thousand five hundred years later, towards the end of the Ice Age, the surviving descendants of the new human race have forgotten the words of their ancestors, forgotten the virtues of their ancestors, and are left with only the instinct to fight, killing their own kind for a bloody piece of meat, and even eating their own people in order to survive.
The dust that had covered the sky for more than 2,000 years was finally thinning, and the sun, which had been absent for more than 2,000 years, finally appeared in the dim sky again, and the descendants of the new humans bathed in the faint sunlight and bowed down to the warm fireball. As time passed, the glaciers began to slowly melt, and the green plants began to slowly rule the earth again.
The number of new humans who have survived is less than a thousand, and they have lost the knowledge of their ancestors, so they can only make simple iron tools, although they are all handsome men and women with extremely long lives, but if this continues, it is only a matter of time before they perish.
Out of instinctive fear of the extinction of the race, the new humans collectively subconsciously created the totem of the sun god, they prayed to the sun every day and night, hoping that their race would be continued, perhaps the gods really heard their voice, and soon they met a new race, a large human tribe that looked exactly like them, but was weak and had a very short lifespan, and could only use stone tools.
Excited as a lost ant finding an ant's nest, the new humans joined the Stone Tribe and carefully guarded the future of this new race as servants of the sun god.
The human concept of time is too small for the universe. In the 10,000 years since the cosmic catastrophe, mankind has had a new civilization, a new language, and several new kingdoms. The number of humans gradually began to increase, and as they slowly expanded, the ruins of 10,000 years ago were slowly discovered.
In the face of the scientific and technological products they can't understand, in the face of the words they can't understand, in the face of the metal utensils they can't make, the post-human beings who have only the level of the feudal period feel deeply inferior, and at the same time they also worship the world of 10,000 years ago from the bottom of their hearts, they believe that the human beings of 10,000 years ago got the magic of God, and they used magic to make these mystical and mysterious artifacts, so they called the world of 10,000 years ago:
Age of Ancient Magic.
The Blackstone Hotel in Maple Leaf City was bustling with people, but the third floor was much quieter. In one room, four dusty people sat at a round table, three men and one woman, all dressed in different styles, but they all had one thing in common, they were all blonde and blue-eyed. ,
There was a map on the table, and one of the big men with a beard on his face whispered, "Rose, you go outside and keep a sentry, and don't let anyone come near us." ”
The woman in the close-fitting leather armor stood up and walked out of the room in silence, closing the door as she shut.
"It's a map I got at a great cost." The big man said with a gloomy face: "For this map, Amuro and Char both died in the hands of the scorpion mercenary group, I know that this thing, our small mercenary group can't eat it, so we found two of them, and everyone worked together to get the wealth inside." ”
An old man in a black robe squinted at the map on the table, and at the same time he grabbed the sparse ram's whiskers on his chin, and said strangely, "Ryan, I have seen this map similar to it before." Isn't this the ruins of the palace of the king, which has been destroyed for three hundred and thirty-five years? That place has long been scraped clean by the invading Kate kingdom at that time, and not even a single copper coin will be left, believe me. ”
The big man Ryan Ha Luha smiled: "It is worthy of being a knowledgeable alchemist in Maple Leaf City, Bode, indeed, the soldiers of the Kate Kingdom who invaded at that time robbed all the things they could rob, but there are some riches that many people have not discovered, and those who can find them can't take them away, so in order to prevent others from finding out, he secretly drew this map and kept it until now." ”
"It's just that he never found a suitable opportunity to get this wealth back, and before he died, he gave the map to his descendants, but his descendants were too wasteful to have the ability to get this wealth, so he secretly sold the map and exchanged it for a few gold coins to live."
Another of the three was a young man, his hands were white, his skin was smooth, he was a rare beautiful man, and he also held a golden wooden staff in his hand, and the top of the wooden staff was embedded with a fist-sized red crystal, reflecting the red light that people felt murderous.
This young man is still very noble, and he is also wearing a robe, which is more delicate and gorgeous than the black robe of the alchemist Bode: "Ryan, I am too busy to listen to the legend of this map, and I don't care about the grievances between you and the Scorpion Mercenary Group, you just need to tell me what the treasure is." ”
"As you wish, Lord James Bond." Ryan bowed slightly, and then his face changed, and his eyes became excited: "Two, you would never have imagined that the place marked on this map has an ancient ruin. ”
"No way, if it is a relic of the ancient magic era, why didn't the Solomonic dynasty dig it up, but even built a royal palace on it. This is so unconscionable. Alchemist Bode shook his head, saying that he didn't believe it, and it was unlikely.
James pondered for a moment, but said, "No, it's possible. The Luosomen Dynasty existed for 3,000 years before it was destroyed, and it is the longest-lived dynasty so far, 3,000 years, how many kingdoms can't even support it for 300 years, so let's imagine that the founder of Luosuomen, Zhilu Dao, was an ancient ruin, so he built the palace on it. ”
"Wait!" The alchemist stood up sharply: "Your Excellency means that there is a complete mausoleum left over from the ancient magic era?" ”
James Bon's fingers tapped lightly on the table, his face full of confidence: "Only this possibility, my soul is telling me, only this possibility, no, not 'possibility', is the truth." The Solomon Dynasty can exist for 3,000 years, and it is definitely the 'divine luck' that stole the ancient tombs, but after the 'divine luck' was absorbed, the Solomon Dynasty was immediately sent by the gods, so in just a few days, the huge dynasty was in turmoil, and was destroyed by the Kate Kingdom, which was less than one-tenth of its size. The truth of the truth has been hidden for more than 3,000 years, and the Solomonic dynasty is truly remarkable. ”
James said with a smug face: "When I used to read history books, I always wondered why such a powerful country as the Solomonic dynasty would be destroyed by a weak Kate kingdom. Speaking of which, Ryan, I would like to thank you, if it weren't for you for this message, I still don't understand. I felt my soul now a little closer to my body, and I felt comfortable. ”
Ryan bowed his head slightly: "It is my honor to be able to share the worries and solve problems for His Excellency James Bon. ”,
"Meritorious service will be rewarded." James Bong held the red crystal on his wooden staff in his left hand and tried with all his strength to pull it off, but he was so tired that he couldn't separate the crystal from the wooden staff. He gasped and said depressedly: "I remember when I installed it three years ago, it wasn't so difficult...... Come, Ryan, take the crystal down, it's yours...... However, the scepter must be returned to me. ”
"Yes!" Ryan stood up and asked aloud, while carefully holding the wooden staff in both hands, placing the crystal in front of his eyes, and after fully seeing the traces of the fit between the two, he pulled the crystal away from the tip of the wooden staff, he first carefully placed the red crystal on the wooden table in front of him, and then respectfully returned the wooden staff to James Bond with both hands.
Debo looked at the red crystal with envy, and he said, "Ryan, you're in luck. ”
Ryan lowered his eyebrows at the young man and said, "This is the generosity of His Excellency James Bon. ”
Everyone loves to hear good words, James Bang Ha Luha smiled, and then he said: "Since it is a mausoleum in ancient times, in case this matter is known by other people, it will definitely not be able to protect it with the ability of the three of us, and the protection measures of the ancient mausoleum are very good, and the excavation time often takes a year or two, and this matter will definitely not be hidden for long, and the people of the Scorpion Mercenary Group will definitely come to us for trouble." So I plan to report this to my teacher, and he will deal with the other forces and scorpion mercenary groups, and the work of digging up the mausoleum will be handed over to you two mercenary groups, and the proceeds afterwards, my teacher will have four shares, and the three of us will each have two shares, what do you think? ”
Ryan and Bode glanced at each other and said happily, "In the name of the sun god!" ”
James was very satisfied with the attitude of the two people, he nodded and said, "It's decided, I'll go back to the house first, and if the matter is done, I will send someone to inform you." ”
The two sent James down the stairs and left the Black Stone Pavilion, and Bode left the hotel to prepare the excavation items. Ryan returned to his room. Rose returned to the room as they left, standing at the table, her eyes sparkling at the red crystals on the table.
Ryan smiled, pulled out his cutlass from under the bed, and pointed it at the red crystal is everything, splitting it in half. He picked up one of them, handed it to Rose, and said, "Half for you, half for me." You fuse first, I'll help you guard the door, and then I'll fuse again, you help me guard the door. ”
Rose held the gem in both hands, moisture welling up in her eyes, and then she hugged Ryan and excitedly kissed herself.
