Chapter 12: The Secret History of the Continent
The system Li Min is now invading other systems is a piece of cake, searching for information such as searching for bags, and it is also too low-end with other systems, there is no security protection, and all races other than the human race do not understand the relevant knowledge.
Regarding the fragmentary information about the civilization struggle tens of thousands of years ago, Li Min has also obtained a large part of it, and has not paid attention to it for the time being.
Why did scientific and technological civilization have a brief but incomparably brilliant development? Tens of thousands of years ago, this question did not even arise, let alone reflect on it.
In the final analysis, whether it is martial arts, true cultivation, or other unknown cultivation systems, none of them can really be popularized. The reason why scientific and technological civilization has been silently accumulating for hundreds of thousands of years and developing by leaps and bounds and developing rapidly is because it has done what the mainstream civilization cannot do, and the people of the lower classes can also prolong their lives to a certain extent.
At the beginning, Terran technology could already enable anyone to live to be 300 years old! This is definitely a great achievement. The key is not to rely on spirit stones, not to rely on long and arduous martial arts and cultivation. As a result, the power of the human race has swelled unprecedentedly, and the cultivation civilization is facing a crisis to a certain extent.
Martial cultivators and cultivators can generally prolong their lifespan to 300 years old only when they reach the saint level or above, and strictly based on the proportion of the total population, there is a probability of a few percent at most. It is by no means easy to qualify, not to mention the big barrier of resource limitations.
Therefore, the unprecedented scale of the war tens of thousands of years ago, on the surface, was a battle between the human race and the coalition of various races, but in fact, it was a battle to the death between the scientific and technological civilization and the Xiuzhen civilization. The roots are still primitive, and it was originally a conflict of interests, and the battle for the orthodox name of the Great Dao is more like a pretense.
Tong Yinxin followed his brother's advice and rushed to the nearest town. Li Min just knows the general direction, and he still needs to adjust as he goes. Walking along the main road, Tong Yinxin walked like the wind, and Li Min also chattered, constantly instilling all kinds of common sense that he thought his brother must know.
Not only did he work hard to explain, but he also asked targeted questions from time to time, asking his brother to answer, and promoting his brother to deepen his understanding and mastery.
It's not that he can't accept it, it's not that he doesn't have the ability to do so, it's just that he doesn't want to be so diligent;
In less than two hours, we arrived at the small town called Ningfeng. He didn't meet a robber or a beast, he was so fast that people thought they wouldn't be able to catch up when they saw it.
After paying ten copper coins to enter the city, Tong Yinxin entered the town. True to its name, the town is just an upgraded version of the village, with a similar layout, plus a large circle of thick walls up to four meters high, and the defense capability has been greatly improved.
There is also just that the village is managed by several leading figures, and whoever is stronger has more right to speak. For example, the real owner of the grocery store, tavern and other small shops is not the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper is only a high-level employee.
The town has an official, a duly appointed town warden, who is fully responsible for the management of the town, and a town guard, which is the center of the town. The town guard has a total of 100 personal guard troops, which belong to the official official armed forces, and theoretically the lowest is the first rank of martial arts.
Ningfeng Town is one of the thousands of towns under the Barrow Kingdom. The Zero Realm is currently controlled by the four major races, the Beast Race, the Demon Race, the Demon Race, the Sea Race, and the original Terran Empire, and it is the most powerful.
There are many other smaller races that rule over some kingdoms, and now, the Terrans are being suppressed by force, and there are no kingdoms belonging to the Terrans, and the Terrans are almost just another name for slaves and inferior people.
Speaking of inferior people, the human race was simply a slave before the first million years, and even inferior people can hardly be counted. The human race itself has a very unique potential, and it has gradually developed and grown after hundreds of thousands of years. Moreover, the civilization of the Terran race has expanded very much, not to mention the scientific and technological civilization, and the imprint of the Terran society should be said to be all over all aspects.
In terms of the villages, towns, and shops that people are most accustomed to, how can there be anything that is not in the realm of human social civilization? It can be said that the various races, led by several other major races, have been slowly cultivated and assimilated by the human race for more than a million years......
Really, they should call themselves separately, orcs, demons, demons, and so on. The body shape is almost the same, except for the language, folk customs and habits, which are still somewhat unique, and they have almost been fully humanized; how dare you talk about the extinction of human civilization?
Do they really think that technological civilization has been completely destroyed and wiped out?
There is another big reason, all these races, there are still a large part of them, they have adhered to the traditions of countless years, and have always refused to accept the pollution of human civilization; now they still live in the deep mountains and primeval forests; speaking of which, they are the more authentic beasts, demons, and demons......
Ironically, however, although they think that they are not in the same league as the human race, in fact they cannot still drink blood like pure beasts, live in the wilderness, die in caves, and need to have architecture, organization, society,—— and even civilization and progress.
The Terrans are just often one step ahead, often leading civilization forward and often playing a role in propulsion.
While listening absentmindedly to his younger brother's explanation of common sense, Tong Yinxin walked aimlessly through the streets of the town, looking around and seeing everything fresh.
Walking and walking to the center of the town, I suddenly saw a large group of people gathered on the left side of the gate of the town guard's mansion, as if they were reading a wanted notice. There are also several people on the right, sitting or standing, behind a long table.
Tong Yinxin curiously leaned behind the group of people and listened to what they were talking about. After listening to it for a while, I found that almost all of these people were worried. No one paid attention to the original wanted notices, and everyone was worried about the new conscription notices, and they were the guild presidents and shop owners inside and outside the town.
The government posted a recruitment notice informing them to come and see them, and they were all required to meet the quotas. Each small group, according to the number of people managed below, is obliged to send more than one young man who has a foundation in martial arts, at least a high-level martial apprentice, to join the army.
What should I do if I can't complete the task? It's easy to do, and the price of each indicator is clearly marked as a spirit stone. If you have money, you can be exempted from military service, and if you don't have money, it's better to go out.
No one thinks about bad ideas, and anyone who tries to resist will be hit like a storm!
For example, if there is really no young man of high level above the martial apprentice level, then a teenager who is changed to an intermediate level of martial apprentice must be barely qualified; if one is not enough, you can also use two top one.
But no matter what, those who don't have a martial arts level at all, such as a low-level child at the martial apprentice level, will definitely not be accepted. Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and joining the army will definitely go to the front line to fight, and first of all, it will kill people!
Is there a situation in which people have made meritorious contributions? It is not non-existent, 1 in 10,000 is certainly not enough, and a few in 1 million is okay. A small number of them died on the battlefield, and their families and relatives can get some pensions, and some are even worse, but they do not die but end up with lifelong disabilities, and they will basically live alone for the rest of their lives.
I was fortunate enough to survive five years without any injuries, and about one-third of those who were able to retire from the army and go home after accumulating merit, which were all enviable lucky people. Such retired soldiers, usually the government will arrange for them to do better errands than ordinary people, such as catching fast and serving as government officials.
The Kingdom of the Barrows is a small kingdom surrounded by several small and medium-sized kingdoms that are slightly stronger than it, all of which are under the jurisdiction of the Orc Empire, but the friction and war will not stop all year round. To the northeast is the Upper Kingdom of Bahrain, to the southeast is the Lower Kingdom of Bahrain, and to the west is mainly the Later Wei Kingdom, which is always coveting the land of the Baro Kingdom.
There are also several smaller countries that are slightly weaker than the Barrow's kingdom that also border the Barrow's kingdom, but the Barrow's kingdom still wants to encroach on them.
The main body of the Beast Empire occupies one-third of the vast center of the continent with the richest resources, and is adjacent to the Demon Empire and the Demon Empire, which roughly also occupy one-third; They don't mind much of the slapstick of the small country below.
When the Terrans were completely defeated, the Sea Clan also made great efforts, but they did not get many substantial benefits. They had been hurt so badly that they had been compensated with a lot of resources, and they had to accept it at the time, but now that they had recovered their strength, their resentment was growing day by day.
Originally, the Zero Realm was not the Zero Realm, but a powerful interface that ranked around a thousand subordinates in the Cultivation God Realm. Tens of thousands of years ago, the protracted and chaotic war caused the Zero Realm as a whole to suffer too much damage, and after the armistice to recuperate, the Zero Realm's ranking plummeted, and it even ranked first from the bottom, so that it had to succumb to the name of "Zero Realm".
At the beginning, the navigation power of the Terrans was unprecedentedly strong, and even the space capabilities were incredibly strong. The Zero Realm Sea Clan has always been unconvinced by the Terrans, and has always been suppressed very miserably. All the relevant materials of these past events have long been completely destroyed, but people with perseverance and perseverance can still slowly restore the historical truth step by step through bits and pieces of clues.
Tong Yinxin listened for a while and roughly understood the situation, he didn't know much about the inside story of the conscription, but was a little interested in the information on the wanted notice. There are not many rewards for conscription, but the wanted notices are generally very high, and even the lowest ones are twenty or thirty thousand copper coins.
He thought to himself, what is the strength of these wicked people, I wonder if he has the ability to kill them now?
He was studying the wanted notice, but he didn't expect that the messengers from the town guard behind him were all paying attention to him. The other people who watched the recruitment notice, they were all familiar, only the very young Tong Yinxin was the only fresh face.
"Hey, little brother," the leader sent someone over and patted Tong Yinxin lightly on the shoulder, "Is this a bounty?"
