"Welcome back. {suimеng] щ{suimеng][lā} Then, looking at you like this, it should be a big gain, right?"

Staring at the image of the gray-robed man on the crystal screen, Werner, who was in his office, made sure that there was no one around, and then arranged a few more detection spells before speaking.

"Hmph, I have to admit that for thousands of years, you are still the most in line with my heart...... Of course, if a few of them are still around, it won't be easy to say. ”

The gray-robed man smiled faintly, and his tone became a little nostalgic, but this slight feeling disappeared in only a moment.

"I'll admit that as a leader, you're a good fit for me, Idawal...... No, Iroh. ”

Werner smiled the same smile back.

"I'll see how we skip the pleasantries, Mr. Werner...... Or rather, UD-286?"

Two names that were placed 10,000 years ago were enough to make countless people frightened, and they confided in them at will.

That's right, this gray-robed man who suddenly appeared in front of Yan Feng and gave another glimmer of hope to the dragon that had completely fallen into despair, except for Iro, naturally could not be anyone else.

"First of all," after officially starting a conversation that hadn't been held for thousands of years, the first thing Iroh asked was, of course, the current situation, "You know, I finally gathered my body five thousand years ago, and before I could gather all the old departments, I met that guy named Salo Nelford. Although I succeeded in breaking his 'perfect body' in the end, my body was also under the spell of 'Heiankyo Four Gods Blockade', and I had to sleep for another 5,000 years, and I didn't wake up until recently. ”

Werner nodded, "I've been waiting for your return, and so has Blue Descartes. However, his energy is not so good, and he should still be asleep now, and I believe that as long as you come forward, he will wake up. And, about the current state of the world, I have put together a document, which will be transmitted to you. ”

"Very good. "You can point the communicator at the computer, and I can read it." ”

In just a few seconds, Iroh understood the changes in the entire Elohim Lord Plane over the past 10,000 years—even he had to admit that this half-material, half-spiritual form, which had lost its body and had been condensed by magic, was quite efficient in some ways, such as the collection of information.

On the day of its destruction 10,000 years ago, Iroh fired 10,000 hydrogen bombs into the north of the western continent in retaliation, completely turning the area into a wasteland, and even 10,000 years of time could not restore it to its original appearance.

You must know that the decay period of radioactive materials is very long, and Iroh used all his strength to arrange the limit number of hydrogen bombs that he can control, which led to the fact that for more than a thousand years after the destruction date, half of the entire northern part of the Western Continent was a forbidden area for life, even if a thousand years have passed, some mutated organisms have gradually taken root in the radiation area, and it is impossible for the Western Continent to return to its original appearance without hundreds of thousands of years.

However, in the past 10,000 years, the outermost part of the original nuclear explosion has gradually become less extreme. Nowadays, people divide this wasteland into three zones: red, yellow and blue according to the level of nuclear radiation.

Among them, the Red Zone is still similar to 10,000 years ago, and it is a real place of death, centered on the Demon Sealing Platform where Iroh was killed at that time, occupying about 20% of the area of the wasteland. There are a very small number of highly mutated monsters here, not to mention ordinary people, even the well-equipped adventuring team, and even the elite of the Dawn Holy See, an international organization equivalent to the Dragon Knights on the Western Continent, would never dare to go deep into the Red Zone.

In a sense, this place is still permeated with the hatred that Iroh had at the beginning, a place that even the gods don't want to come to.

The yellow zone is slightly better, and the influence of the peripheral areas of nuclear radiation has gradually diminished over a period of 10,000 years. It occupies half of the wasteland and is home to a large number of inhabitants and lightly mutated creatures.

However, the Yellow Zone is also the most chaotic area in the wasteland, unlike the creatures that can survive in the Red Zone, each of them is a hegemon, and there is no need to compete at all, and the people of the Yellow Zone must fight for resources at all costs in order to survive. According to recent statistical reports, there have been countless small forces fighting each other for thousands of years, and the four that are currently relatively powerful are the Nuclear Sanctuary with its pathological worship of nuclear weapons, the Flame Singers with only a little order and leadership compared to the mobs, the Steel Guardian who is determined to unify the Yellow Zone, and the Alliance of the New Ones, which is committed to restoring the environment and has close ties with the forces in the Blue Zone.

The final Blue Zone is the southernmost thirty percent of the wasteland, which was largely habitable a thousand years ago due to its location at the very edge of the Radiation Zone, and the persistent efforts of the people of the southern part of the Western Continent, even a handful of places in the southern part of the Blue Zone are about the same as they were before the date of destruction - at least it seems so.

As the most orderly region of the wasteland, the Republic of Ankers, the Oberment Society, and the Ghostface are in a three-pronged trend.

The Republic of Ankers is a small country formed by the remnants of the Vola Empire 10,000 years ago, and it is also the first country in the entire Elohim world to adopt a republican form of government, because the people who originally founded this country deeply reflected on a series of shortcomings of the monarchy, and finally decided to abolish the position of monarch, creating a republic that was regarded as heretical by the countries of the Eastern Continent.

The greatest desire of the Republic of Ankers is to restore the wasteland to its original state through the further development of various technologies, and the Alliance of the New Creatures in the Yellow District is the force it supports.

The Oberment Society is said to be the successor of the Solar Optics and the Flame Tribe under Iroh, and has the highest level of technology in the wasteland. Because most of the members of this organization are scholars who devote themselves to research, or people who just want to live a peaceful life, although it is not weak, it is in a neutral position, and in many cases it has also effectively eased the conflict between the Republic of Ankers and the Ghost Face Organization.

The last Ghost Face organization is technically a union of many small forces, because although these small forces are not really united, people gradually understand that they all have an organization called "Ghost Face" behind them to maintain a delicate cooperative relationship.

Unlike the Republic of Ankers, these forces are deeply afraid of the threat posed by technology, so they advocate abandoning technology and magic and returning to the primitive - and thus, the biggest contradiction in the Blue Zone is born.

To the south of the Western Continent is the Luci Ryder Empire, the only country where other countries have been annexed in ten thousand years of turmoil.

This is not because of how powerful the Luci Ryder Empire is, but because its state religion is the Holy See of Dawn. After this huge organization was revived by Austin, it survived tenaciously until 10,000 years later, and it can be said that the southern part of the Western Continent is now completely within the sphere of influence of the Holy See.

Of course, the Holy See did not spread all over the continent as it did 10,000 years ago, before the Dark Coalition attacked, because the situation in the northern wasteland area was too complicated, and because after the day of destruction, in order to prevent the spread of radioactive materials, the Holy See and the Luci Ryder Empire at that time completely blocked the central border of the continent, so the inhabitants of the wasteland were generally full of disgust with these two forces.

In addition, another major change that 10,000 years has brought to the Western Continent is in terms of intelligent races.

The original Western Continent was more colorful than the Eastern Continent, from humans to orcs, from dwarves to elves, from goblins to giants, and all kinds of wurms and dragons......

However, after the day of destruction, the two elven settlements in the northern part of the Western Continent, as well as the largest city of the dwarven race, were destroyed, and today, 10,000 years later, these two races have been completely wiped out on the Western Continent, and at most people can only find some of their hybrids.

Large races such as giants and wurms have also become extinct, because the harsh environment in the north of the continent makes it difficult for these more resource-demanding creatures to survive, and the strongest creatures, the dragons, have a different chance.

On the other hand, the people of the Western Continent knew that it was Airo who caused the day of destruction, but Ailo was dead, so the Western Continent Alliance led by the Holy See launched a massacre of other colored dragons, and the result was - 10,000 years later, all the colored dragons in the southern part of the Western Continent were slaughtered!

The situation of the metal dragon is much better, but after experiencing Ello's attack on the Holy Dragon City, the metal dragon clan is also greatly damaged, and then it is the day of destruction. Today's metal dragons are divided into two factions, one faction was in the south of the continent at the time of the destruction, and they were not attacked by nuclear explosions, so they have been living in the south and have become loyal allies of the Holy See.

The other faction was in the northern part of the continent, and although Shattered Day killed most of them, a small number of metal dragons near the south survived.

Because the Luci Ryder Empire and the Holy See forbade any creatures from the Atomic Zone from entering the South, these dragons had to live in the wasteland forever. Over the past 10,000 years, their bodies have mutated in order to adapt to the environment of the wasteland, and they have even begun to worship Elo, who led to the day of destruction.

So, they united the colored dragons in the north, gradually put aside racial prejudices and came together, and called themselves "nuclear dragons". They founded the Nuclear Church, one of the four major organizations in the Yellow Zone.

The last thing to mention is that Werner has gradually gathered the whereabouts of the Tokamaks from all over the years!

It is said that the Tokamaks lurked under the leadership of Karamank and Helfras after the day of their destruction, and ventured to the Eastern Continent 7,000 years ago.

After that, Werner didn't know too much, only that the group of people eventually succeeded, but in order to survive, they had to hide their true origins and disperse.

Now that 7,000 years have passed, even the descendants of those people are afraid that they have forgotten this history, right......?
